Zel opened his eyes, and the first thing he noticed
was that he held something in his arms. Something warm
ands pliant . Zelgadis smiled slightly as he
looked down at the sleeping Xellos. So he does
sleep. Zel mused silently as he gently stroked
Xellos' silky hair. Xellos curled his head under Zel's
chin much like a trusting cat and Zelgadis tightened
his hold on the Mazuko..... his Mazuko. He let his
thoghts drift to the night before's events. While he
had'd had a few lovers before he was transformed, he
had never had a lover since then. He had always been
ashamed of his monsterous form, besides, who'd wanted
to sleep with a rock. But with Xellos, that didn't
matter because he thrived on pain. Zel winced at some
of the pains he felt twinging, but last night had been
worth it. He had never had anyone like Xellos, someone
who could cruelly tease you into a frensy, yet at the
same time ease that frensy before it exploded. Xellos
seemed to know just how much he could take, and that
had made the release all the more pleasurable.
Absently Zel ran his hands down Xellos' back. He loved
the feel of Xellos' skin, it was a strange yet
wonderous mixture of hard muscles and soft supple
flesh. Zel's hands froze when he felt Xellos nipp his
neck, and smiled at his lover's eageness.
"Zel-kun, again?" Xellos asked playfuly as he nibbled
his way up Zel's jaw and begain to nibble on Zel's
earlobe. Zel gasped, how had that little Trickster
known that they would drive him crazy? Zel's breathing
became shallow and his grabbed Xellos and pulled him
away.
"Sto.....stop it." he gasped. Xellos looked ay him
with cat-like eyes.
"What's the matter Zel-kun? Don't you like it?"
More then you think O' Trickster Of Mine Zel thought
silently as he sat up and glowered at the Mazuko.
"What makes you think that?" Zel asked as a slight
blush creeped across his cheeks and he pulled the
sheet up to his chest. Xellos grinned a small catty
smile.
"Now Zel-chan, I have seen all of you, hiding is a
little silly at this point don't you think?" Xellos
grinned with predatory look in his eyes as he yanked
the sheet off of Zel, and it diaapeared in mid-air.
Zel blushed and glared at him
"Do you mind?" he asked pointedly.
"Now Zel, I can give you sometihng to blush about."
Xellos purred as he leaned forward. Zel stiffened
waiting for Gods only knew what, but Xellos merely
whispered in his ear and Zel blushed all the way up
to the roots of his metalic hair.
"Is that even possible?" Zel couldn't keep a hint of
curiousity out of his voice. Xellos' grin widened.
"You bet." he whispered as he captured Zel's lips with
him own. Zel flayed about as Xellos pushed him onto
his back and stradled him. "Now that I have you at my
mercy, whatever should I do with you?" Xellos asked as
he leaned over and rested his elbows on Zelgadis'
chest. Xellos moved forward so that his face was
inches away from Zel's, but when Zel tried to kiss
him, he drew back teasingly. "Now, now, that wouldn't
be too much fun." Xellos' fingers traced small yet
light circles on Zel's tense chest. Suddenly, an idea
apealed to him, and his eyes lit up. Xellos got off of
Zel, and the Chimera was about to protest when Xellos
silenced him with a kiss.
"Now, now love, patience." Xellos chided as he stepped
off of the pallet and made his way into the shadows
No telling what that Mazuko has in mind for me. Zel
thought, yet still, he shivered in anticipation. Zel
got the distint feeling that this would be
interesting.
He wasn't disapointed, five mintutes later, Xellos came back with a bar of soap, and a bottle of wine in his hands. Zel cocked an eyebrow at these to items. Xellos tossed him a grin and padded across the room still completely naked. Zel had to admit, he did have a maginificant body, but he would never admit it to Xellos. The Mazuko already had a big enough ego!
Zelgadis heard a splash, and then Xellos sigh in
contentment. After about ten minutes, of silence,
Zelgadis' curiousity won out and he padded after
Xellos. The sound of running water led Zel to the
cavern around the corner of the hall he traveled down.
Zel gasped slightly at the beautiful sight before him.
He was in a minuature jungle. The runnig water
he had heard was a high waterfall spilling crystal
clear water into an even clearer pool. Rare yet
beautiful foliage decorated the cleverly hidden paths.
Zel was so transfixed by the view he didn't
notice Xellos creep up behind until he wraped his arms
around his body. Zel stiffened but instantly relaxed
as he felt Xellos lean his head against his shoulder.
"Zel....." Xello murmured as he laid his head over
Zel's shoulder, and Zelgadis laid his cheek against
Xellos' silky hair.
"Yes Xellos." Zel murmured as he wraped his arms
around Xellos' arms holding him to him. Xellos kissed
Zel's shoulder, and nipped his shoulder hard. Instead
of replusing him, the Mazuko in Zel reveled at
the feel of pain, and awoke. Zelgadis turned around in
Xellos' circle of arms and kissed his Mazuko
passionately. Zel nibbled on Xellos' bottom lip, and
Xellos opened his mouth waiting. But instead of
deepening the kiss, Zel bit down on Xellos' lip hard.
Xellos' eyes fluttered close and he shuddered at the
raw pleasure that slammed into his senses. Blood
welled from his lip, but he didn't pay it any mind,
instead he chuckled deep in his throat as he looked at
Zelgadis.
"Don't fight it Zel-kun, don't fight what it tells you
to do." Xellos smiled, and his slit pupils dialated
slightly with excitement. "Let the Mazuko within you
out, set it free." Xellos urged silently. Zelgadis
nodded and licked the blood from Xellos' lip. The
coppery liquid seemed to cling to the tip of his
tongue. He licked the small wound he had caused and
sucked up the blood greedily. What is going on? Zel
thought slightly paniced. He knew that he should have
felt disgusted by his behaviou, but it felt so
good, so right. Xellos nipped Zelgadis' ear once more,
and Zel's gasp was covered by Xellos' warm chuckle.
Zel gripped Xellos' arms, his fingers dug in leaving
farrows in Xellos' white skin as he slowly lowered
himslelf, and his lover to the floor.
Xellos smoothly and effortlesly slipped through the
water as he swam to the edge of the pool where
Zelgadis sat, his feet dipped in the water.
"Zel-kun why don't you join me, the water is exquisite?" Zel frowned,
"I can't swim in this body, I sink, if you'll excuse
the pun, like a rock." Xellos jumped out of the water
and wrapped his arms around Zelgadis.
"I can change that Zel-kun, I can give you back your
old body, I can make it so that you and I will be
together forever." Xellos looked into Zel's eyes, for
once comepletly serious. "Zel-kun, will you join me,
becuase I can't imagine my life without you in it."
Zelgadis felt his heart flip within his chest.
Does he..... does he love me too? The errant
thought ran through Zelgadis' head. Xellos laid his
head against Zel's shoulder.
"Aishiteru." Xellos whispered. Zel looked at him
unsure and Xellos smiled at him and kissed his beloved
sweetly."I love you Zel-kun, please join me, here. I
have only shown you a portion of what it means to be a
Mazuko, and great sex isn't even part of it." Zelgadis
gulped, and he laid his hand against Xellos' cheek and
stared deep into his beautiful amethyst eyes.
He does love me. Zel felt as if a great weight had
been lifted from his shoulders.
"Aishiteru." Zel murmeud as he kissed Xellos. "I'll
join you."
