Eclipse

Chapter 17

Akihiko's POV

I quietly grabbed a bag, packing it with some things before heading out of my room. The king and queen should be asleep by now. I snuck towards the gates when a hand laid itself on my shoulder. I jumped, turning around to see Tsukishima.

"Where are you going." He said. I took in a breath as Yamaguchi walked over too. I looked at them both and explained everything about our ideas. Both of them looked at each other before back at me. 

"...So..?" I said sheepishly. Tsukishima gave a nod of approval, Yamaguchi grabbing me in a hug. I smiled slightly, holding onto him as he let out a deep breath.

"You better be safe and come back... okay?"

"I promise." I said, hugging him again before rushing off. The guards were just switching, so I slipped out while they were transitioning shifts. After I was out of the gates, I ran off to the nearby inn that Grant and Eclipse were supposed to be staying at. 

Once I found the inn, both of them were waiting for me in the main lobby. Grant said that his dad agreed to stay with Eclipse's parents so we all could share a room. I nodded and followed them to the room, looking around before yawning.

"Tired already?" Grant said with a chuckle. I blushed in embarrassment before rolling my eyes.

"Be quiet..."

"Well then you better get some rest." He said, Eclipse yawning too. Grant smiling with a sigh.

"Both of you should get some rest. We have a lot to do tomorrow." Grant said as I set aside my bag of some supplies. I climbed into the bed, Eclipse watching and helping Grant shove a few more supplies into some bags they had themselves.

"So. Who are we going to see first??" I asked curiously, Grant telling me that someone named Atsumu lived closest. Then someone named Oikawa. And then finally someone named Saeko. 

Grant's POV

After everything we needed was packed into a bag, I walked over to the bed and laid down with a sigh. Tired out myself. Akihiko was on one side of me, Eclipse climbing into bed on my other side. Both of them decided to cuddle up to me, both resting a head on either my chest or stomach. 

I smiled faintly at the two, adjusting so my arms were around them both. It wasn't to long before both fell asleep. I hoped that everything would go well tomorrow... At least our first trip would only be a day's worth.

The Next Day (Late evening): Atsumu's POV

"Sakusaaaaaaaaa." I said, creeping up on my husband before pouncing on him. He fell over, laying underneath me as I grinned.

"You're an awful hunter." He said calmly. I laughed, sitting up a bit and flipping him over so he was on his back and facing me. I grinned, grazing my fangs that were beginning to show along his skin. He squirmed a bit underneath me before stuttering a bit.

"A-Atsumu..."

"Mm?"

"Don't I still have bite marks and scratches from your last transformation."

"Pleaseee? It takes so much energy to retract my fangs and claws during full moons like this." 

"...Fine."

"Tail and ears???"

"You shed a lot."

"Pleaseeeee." I begged again, Sakusa sighing and just nodding. I smiled happily, letting my body change so I didn't have to use up so much energy keeping it hidden. Sakusa was the only one, aside from my brother, who knew about what I really was. He has since we were younger, and he didn't even seem phased. 

Event hough he knew, I'd always keep my ears and tail hidden when the full moon came closer. But after we started dating and then got married, I showed him the ears and tail that matched my hair color that would naturally appear each moon. He said he didn't care. Apart from the shedding. That he did mind. 

I smiled happily, letting my tail thump against my husband's leg. He reached his hand up, scratching the base of my ears. The feeling felt great, but the only issue... Whenever I would let my ears and tail appear, my instinctual sides came out more and more too.

"Sakusaaa." I said, gripping his hands and pinning them over his head. I smirked, licking my fangs before leaning down and sinking them into his flesh. Sakusa moaned as I licked the wound, grazing my fangs further and further down his neck.

My face and body heated up when I let go of his hands and one of his hands reached out and gripped my tail. I chuckled, wagging it slightly and getting ready to sink my teeth into his flesh again when there were knocks at the door.

I growled, rolling off of my husband and sprawling out on the floor. Sakusa sat up, his cheeks pink as he rubbed the spot on his neck where I had bit him.

"Get the door." He said.

"Can't you get ittttt? Look at me!" I said, trying to use my ears as an excuse. Sakusa grabbed a blanket and threw it on me.

"There. Put that around yourself."

"What am I, a nun?"

"Get the door."

"But-"

"No sex for two weeks if you don't." He said. Before I knew it I was on my feet and at the door with the blanket over my head so my ears were pressed flat against my head. I opened the door, raising my brow to see three kids, well, kinda kids, at the door.

"....Yes?"

"Hi. Um.. Do, do you remember someone named Shoyo Hinata?" The girl asked. I furrowed my brows in thought before suddenly remember. Without meaning to, I let go of the blanket and my ears popped up as I smiled, my tail wagging under the blanket too.

"Of course! He was the one who helped me t- whoops." I said, quickly covering myself again. The three in front of me giggled as I cleared my throat. The girl smiling.

"Well.. Shoyo is my dad. And. He needs your help.. if you're willing to listen Mister Atsumu." she said politely. I had no idea who these kids were. But I owed Hinata a lot. I never would've gotten to marry Sakusa if it weren't for his little suggestion before he left all those years ago.

"Of course, come inside."
