Long Live The King: The Chronicles Of Uchiha Itachi and The Uchiha Clan

Chapter Four: The Kyuubi Part One

Chapter 4: The Kyuubi Part 1

The next morning after his declaration, Sasuke looked down upon the hermaphrodite male asleep upon his chest. He'd marked him as his life mate. The thoughts spinning in the wolf-tengu's head now screamed at him, 'Kyuubi, so beautiful you are my Queen...yet as deeply as I have fallen in love with you this past month...I know that our time together will not last...you are my Ritsukai...I know that you are, you must be, I love you far too much... ' His thoughts were interrupted as Kyuubi stirred in his sleep, bright dark red orbs looking up from Sasuke's chest to gaze at him with warmth and love. "Sasuke...let us go to where you live?", his kitsune's voice was a blessing to hear. Collecting his naked bride in his arms Sasuke nodded and leaped out of the cave. He landed in front of the Uchiha castle town, the main mansion that he usually resided in when not in the castle stood silent and ancient.

Walking past the large gates he headed inside with Kyuubi in his arms. "Here we are my beloved", he whispered into the fox's ear as he set him to his feet. "It is beautiful..." Kyuubi spoke as he walked around the main lobby of the Uchiha manor, there were long rafters high in the dome like ceiling perfect for a roosting Tengu, Sasuke had grown up without knowledge of his Tengu heritage but his blood would awaken one day. The walls were painted black with the fan insignia of the clan on them every so often. The floor was a deep white marble with dark red flecks scattered across them. The living room was wide and as large as a small tennis court.

The couches were red and the carpet was black, the dark crushed velvet curtains that hung over the floor to ceiling windows were tied back by purple velvet ropes. The stained glass windows each told a story, the ones in the living room were images of Sephiroth surrounded by at first nothingness, but then his many star children. Sasuke smiled as he wrapped his arms around Kyuubi from behind, head settled onto his shoulder he kissed the male's neck. "Not as beautiful as you", the fox turned in the others arms and wrapped his own arms around his neck kissing him with a feiry passion. The raven haired demon kissed back and lifting his mate in his arms laid him down on the couch for another round of sweet and slow love making.

(3 months later)

Three moons had gone by, Kyuubi long revealing his pregnancy to his beloved mate, now offically his husband. They'd wed under the trees Sasuke first caught hold of Kyuubi's scent. Life was bliss for the Uchiha, but he knew his beautiful fox was not his true mate. It broke his heart to think of such a thing no matter how true it was. Kyuubi glowed with happiness as he walked with Sasuke away from the markets they'd been shopping in that day. The fox king froze for a moment, suddenly doubling over in pain. "What is it my love? the pups?", he shook his head and stood up right with a bit of help. "No no no they are fine, I am fine fret not darling", the andryognous male kissed the corner of his Sasuke's mouth, nuzzling under his chin in reassurance. Sasuke smiled brightly and held Kyuubi close as they continued to walk. His hand snaked around his wife's gently swelling belly to rub it fondly.

"How many do you think we will have?" came Sasuke's voice as he kissed the side of Kyuubi's face once they had arrived home, passing their purchases off to servants. Kyuubi laid across Sasuke on their bed after the younger insisted on carrying him to their room. "Five, possibly six", the kitsune demon could not contain the blush that bloomed like fire across his tan whisker marked cheeks as his wolf attacked his face with kisses.

"That is a perfect number! in a few months time, imagine my darling, six little pups, kits, however you wish to call them, rolling around our home, the castle will need to be remodeled!", he spoke happily as he hugged Kyuubi who'd snuggled into him after glomping him softly.

Little did the happy couple know....things were not all as they seemed.

From the darkness of their closet, a pair of glowing red eyes, behind a glimmer of orange glass, vanished.
