Chapter 60 – Feelings, Change, and Work

Makarov was in his office going over the various notes and reports that he kept on the members of his guild. To pick out the ones most deserving of being selected for the S-Class Promotion Trials, he looked at their Quest completion history for the year: including how many Quests they went on and how many were completed successfully, and whether their were complaints or collateral damage done while on the said Quests.

“Hmm, yes, he’s definitely in this year.” Makarov made a note on a piece of paper that no one else would see but him. Flipping over to another page of his records, he smiled as he read over what this member had managed to accomplish in the past year. “It would be remiss not to include her after her accomplishments.” He made another note on the paper next to the records. Looking through the records of a few more of the members, Makarov flipped past one after another after long moments of checking their Quest completions and accomplishments for each one. “Not quite ready yet.” He hummed thoughtfully as a somewhat thin record lay before his eyes. “Not been with us for too long, but with this work record and previous experience…” Makarov considered for a long moment, even picking up his tea cup nearby and taking a soothing sip while he contemplated.

Hearing the ruckus within the guild through his office door let Makarov know that a group of the frantic members trying to up their Quest completion numbers had just arrived back. The sound was not only nostalgic, given that he’d been the master for decades now, but it brought him a chuckle as he listened for a moment until the stampede of feet left the guild hall again, all of them once more rushing out to complete another Quest.

Makarov smiled as he turned his chair slightly to look out the window of his office and out over Magnolia. “Some things never change.” He picked up a small stack of papers from his records and looked at the picture of the member on them in deep thought. “A problem child, for sure, but you’ve had a successful year and you almost made it last year if it hadn’t been for the lengths of time away.” Sometimes making the decisions was difficult, and Makarov had to weigh this members inclusion into the trials against other, less problematic members…but members that also had less achievements.

The list of mages chosen to take part in the S-Class Promotional Trials was coming together and only a few spots were left to fill.

-Gajeel’s Home-

Levy smiled as she lay back against Gajeel’s chest reading a new book that she’d bought recently. They were both on the large couch in front of the black iron woodstove, letting the warmth of it and each other help them relax. The sunlight filtering in through the windows was bright and gentle as a few clouds occasionally rolled across the sky to make shadows. All in all, it was a picturesque autumn day to spend lounging on the couch together for a while.

“Mmm…” Gajeel let a low rumble pass through his chest as his arm that was gently held around Levy’s waist tightened a little before relaxing again.

“Thinking about something?” Levy asked with a warm little smile, even if Gajeel couldn’t see it. She tilted her head back a little to rest it against Gajeel’s shoulder and nearly giggled when she heard his gentle intake of breath as he inhaled her scent.

Gajeel was quiet for a short moment before he spoke. “Just stopping myself.”

Levy blinked at that, but didn’t move from her comfortable spot. “Instinct?” The simple, one-word question showed the understanding that Levy already possessed about Gajeel and his nature as a Dragon Slayer.

“Yeah.” Gajeel answered just as simply, his hand lightly resting on her hip giving her a gentle squeeze. “I can handle it.”

“I know.” Levy smiled as she turned in Gajeel’s hold a little, just enough so that he could see her smile. “I appreciate that, Gajeel.” She closed her book and gently tossed it onto the coffee table.

Gajeel looked into Levy’s warm brown eyes curiously as she now sat sideways on his lap. “Hm?” His unspoken question got a little grin from Levy.

Levy looked into Gajeel’s red eyes for a long moment before she spoke again. “What do your instincts want, Gajeel?”

“You.” Gajeel answered automatically, then blinked as he realized what he’d said. “Uh…” Before he could speak again, Levy, her cheeks bright pink, placed her index finger to his lips, making Gajeel go silent.

“Okay.” Levy said simply, warmth and acceptance radiating from her beautiful smile, making Gajeel’s breath catch in his throat. Levy leaned forward after moving her index finger from Gajeel’s lips. Gajeel leaned forward at the same time and their lips met in a soft and gentle kiss as both closed their eyes and nearly fell into each other.

Neither of them paid any attention to time as they embraced and kissed, slowly and gently exploring each other’s lips and eventually deepening their kiss further, their tongues meeting for the first time. A low rumble from Gajeel was met by a soft moan from Levy as the couple pulled away from each other’s lips, a brief thread of saliva connecting their lips before it broke as they looked into each other’s eyes.

“Levy…” Gajeel breathed out, something between the rumble from before and a growl, his red eyes staring deeply into Levy’s brown, looking for any trace of doubt, hesitation, or uncertainty. He found none.

“Gajeel.” Levy smiled at him with warmth and affection that Gajeel had never once thought anyone would direct his way.

The two of them gently moved, Gajeel lying back on the couch, his head propped up by the plush armrest while Levy laid herself on top of him. Gajeel’s arms gently wrapped around Levy’s waist as hers wrapped around him as best as they could given their position. Gajeel looked into Levy’s eyes again, wanting to make sure that she truly wanted this, and found only affection, warmth, and understanding in those warm brown eyes that he’d fallen in love with. Any mage sensitive to magic would’ve been able to feel the shift…but Levy’s reaction was much more obvious.

“Oh…” Levy let out a soft gasp as she was enveloped by Gajeel’s magic, feeling it practically wrap around her like a blanket. With the ‘blanket’ came a feeling of pressure, like being submerged in water, not painful, but ever present. There was a sensation of depth and Levy felt as though something primal and ancient had surrounded her, like she was sinking into the depths of the earth or a mountain, delving deeper, strata by strata, until she rested at the heart of a dense vein of solid mass.

Gajeel held Levy as she lay against him, feeling her magic welcome his into her as the Dragon Soul Ritual began. He relaxed, just breathing softly as he let his magic flow, slow and steady, not wanting to rush, allowing Levy’s magic to take his in a little at a time. In Gajeel’s mind a little daydream of Levy dressed as a miner extracting iron ore from a mountain played out, bringing a small grin to his lips as it was similar to the process of the Dragon Soul Ritual.

The two would not only spend the entire day together, but the evening, and even the night as Levy slept over for the first time ever.

-Magnolia Town ~ Church Orphanage-

“Yeah!”

“That’s so cool!”

“Again!”

The bright laughter and cheers of children filled the air today as a magic show was put on for them.

Cana smiled as she made water dance through the air, going from one of her magic cards to another, then bursting into a cloud of bubbles that the little kids giggled and laughed at as they ran through, popping all of the bubbles that they could.

Flames alighted in the air as small fireballs were spat out of Natsu’s mouth one by one, only to either burst into embers like little fireworks, or form into letters.

“F! A! I! R! Y! T! A! I! L!”

The children all called out each letter and when Natsu’s spat out the last fireball that morphed into the shape of the Fairy Tail emblem, all the little kids cheered loudly.

“Fairy Tail!”

“Hahaha!” Natsu laughed brightly at the excited kids. “Who’s the best Mage Guild in Fiore?!”

“Fairy Tail!” The kids all cheered together again.

Cana smiled warmly at Natsu, seeing how happy he made the children. ‘He’s going to be such a good dad.’ She thought as her heart filled with even more love for her Mate. This orphanage was where she’d lived as a little girl after making her way to Magnolia in her search for Gildarts. Occasionally, she’d come by to help the place out and entertain the kids. She and Natsu were even taking part of the day today to do it together before going on a date.

“It does this old man’s heart good to see you smiling like that.” The old priest that ran the orphanage smiled at Cana, glad that the sad little girl that he’d taken in with the help of the nuns was now happy and enjoying her life every time that he saw her.

“Glad to hear that, Father.” Cana gave the old man a grin.

The priest chuckled as he watched the kids play around, chasing after round stones that Natsu used his Earth Magic to roll about the large yard at a steady speed. “We’ve had less children come into our care these past few years. It brings me hope that one day, maybe our orphanage won’t be needed. But until that day comes, we’ll be here for any little one that needs a place to call home.” He lightly tapped his lower back with his fist. “Though some of the upkeep of the grounds takes a bit of a toll on this old man, now.”

Cana looked over the yard and the stone walkway that led to the church orphanage’s front door, seeing heavy leaf cover from the autumn leaves that had fallen from the trees all around. With a smile and a few cards in hand, Cana flicked her wrist and the magic cards flew forward. “One leaf cleanup, free of charge!” The flying magic cards glowed green before strong gusts of concentrated wind blasted from them. The leaves strewn all over the ground were blown along in a wave of orange, yellow, red, and brown. “Incoming, kids!” Canan called out to the children and Natsu as the leaf wave rolled forward.

“Yay!” Most of the kids cheered and ran towards the incoming leaves, jumping through the wave and then being blasted by the wind as they laughed and giggled.

Natsu stayed right where he was and the leaf wave and wind blasted past him, leaving him covered in a couple of leaves as he grinned brightly.

With a bit of control of her magic cards, Cana had all of the leaves gathered into a large pile taller than either her or Natsu. The huge pile of leaves was like a beacon to the kids once the magic cards flew back to Cana’s hand. “Jump right in!” She laughed brightly as the children rushed towards the huge pile of leaves and leapt into the embrace of the fallen foliage.

“Hohoho!” The priest laughed as he watched his charges play about in the leaf pile, tossing the gathered leaves around as they cheered and laughed together. “Ah, the laughter also does this old man’s heart good.”

“Cannon Ball!” Natsu yelled out as he joined the kids in the massive leaf pile, disappearing beneath all of the red, brown, orange, and yellow leaves as he jumped in. The children all cheered and gathered around to dig Natsu out as the Magma Dragon Slayer laughed along with them.

Cana couldn’t help but watch on with a smile and love as Natsu picked up two of the kids on his shoulders and spun around twice, making the little kids laugh and cheer while others waited for their turn.

The priest looked thoughtful for a moment before he nodded to himself. “Since you’ve piled up all the leaves so well, I think we’ll have a little campfire fun tonight. Roast some sweet potatoes, marshmallows, and some sausages, a bit of hot cocoa will make the children happy too, I’m sure.”

“Sounds like a perfect way to end an autumn day.” Cana gave the old priest a smile, recalling the times they’d done similar things at the orphanage when she’d been a little girl.

A while later Natsu and Cana bid farewell to the kids and the priest.

“Come back and show us more magic soon!”

“It was super fun today!”

“I wanna be a mage when I grow up!”

The happy calls from the kids put both Cana and Natsu into a great mood as they waved bye to the happy children.

Walking through Magnolia’s streets hand-in-hand, Cana smiled lovingly at Natsu. “You’re going to be a great dad one day, Natsu.”

Natsu smiled back at Cana. “I hope so. A big family sounds nice.” The warmth in his amber eyes as he thought about children of his own someday was enough to make Cana lean in and kiss his cheek. “What was that for?” He asked, smiling warmly at his Mate.

“Just because.” Cana said as she got closer and laid her head on Natsu’s shoulder as they walked a little slower, just enjoying their time together as they started their date.

-Balsam Village-

Balsam Village was a small village built in a far eastern architecture style. The village was considered to be a rather famous tourist spot in Fiore. Balsam was best known for its relaxing natural hot spring baths and multiple luxurious inns. It was also known for having bamboo plants and groves throughout the town and surrounding it, further matching its far eastern theme.

However, on the outskirts of the famous tourist spot, lay the ruins of an old castle that had been long abandoned. In that fortification a gang of thugs had taken up residence and started making things difficult for both the residents and visitors of Balsam Village. The hassling, intimidation, and theft had gone on long enough that a few of the wealthy inn owners pooled money together and posted a request to the nearby Fairy Tail Guild, which was just a bit to the west of the village in Magnolia Town.

The gang of thugs could never have suspected the ones that came to deal with them would be three beautiful women.

“Moo!” Taurus punched one of the last thugs across the face, sending the man bouncing off the floor once before laying sprawled out and unconscious.

“You guys shouldn’t be forming gangs and causing people trouble.” Lucy told the men scattered around the old castle’s main hall, all of them beaten and bruised.

Wendy’s foot was on the back of one thug’s head, pressing it into the cracked wall from her kick. “They’re not very strong either.” She moved her foot and the thug collapsed to the ground unconscious.

One of the thugs groaned out as he tried to push himself upright. “Y-You think you’ll get away with this? Boss Devon will take you o-out…”

“This one?” Juvia questioned from the top of the stairs leading into the higher level of the castle. Being dragged along by her left hand was a large, muscular man…though his physique didn’t count for much when he looked like a thoroughly waterlogged rat at the moment. “Juvia dealt with him a while ago.”

The thug looked on in shock before trying to scramble away. “C-Crap!” He crawled on all fours across the floor, only to come to an abrupt stop as Lucy kicked him in the gut. “Gak!” The thug literally flipped over from the force and landed on his back before curling into a ball and cradling his stomach.

“Just stay where you are, okay?” Lucy told the downed thug before turning to Juvia with a smile. “You did great, Juvia!”

Juvia smiled back at Lucy as she walked down the stairs, dragging the defeated Devon along. “Juvia only had to use one spell: Sea Dragon’s Claw. He fell after that.” She let Devon drop to the floor amongst his defeated gang. The fact that part of the upper level was currently flooded from that singular spell would also explain why Devon was waterlogged.

“Carla should be back soon with the local authorities.” Wendy said as she walked over to Lucy and Juvia with a smile.

“N-Nice…” A weak voice was heard, making Wendy, Lucy, and Juvia look down to see a beaten thug looking up at them.

More specifically he was looking up Lucy and Wendy’s skirts.

“Gah!” The thug found himself pulled off the ground by Taurus and thrown into the stone wall across the main hall with a loud thud.

“MOOO!!! How dare you take a peek when I’m not allowed to look!” Taurus bellowed at the, now unconscious, thug.

Wendy had a cute pout on her face as she held down her skirt with pink cheeks. “Pervert.” Whether she was talking about the thug, Taurus, or both was left unsaid.

Lucy held up Taurus’s golden key and tapped him with it, a flat expression on her face the entire time. “Forced Gate Closure.” Taurus disappeared into motes of light a second later. “Hah…” She exhaled, knowing it was just Taurus’s personality.

“This didn’t take very long; we still have tonight at the inn of the client reserved too…should we stay?” Juvia asked Wendy and Lucy for their opinions.

“I wouldn’t mind.” Wendy said with a smile. “I’ve always wanted to try Balsam Village’s famous hot springs!”

Lucy agreed with a smile and a nod. “The food is supposed to be great too!”

The sound of dozens of rushing people was heard by the three Dragon Slayers’ sharp hearing. A moment later and Carla flew into the main hall and landed bedside Wendy.

“I’ve brought the authorities.” Carla said simply as she crossed her arms, glancing around at all of the thugs laid out on the ground. “It seems these brutes weren’t an issue.”

The local police, all of them, came marching inside, batons out and at the ready in case of a fight, only to stop and blink in surprise at the Devon Gang all beaten and strewn about the floor. Seeing Lucy, Wendy, and Juvia standing among the defeated thugs like they hadn’t just beaten an entire gang in a couple of minutes was almost sobering for the policemen. As arrests were made and the thugs were walked or dragged out of the castle, depending on if they were conscious or not, the police took a report from the three women for their records before bidding them a good evening, politely shuffling them outside, as they began to mark off the castle with crime scene tape.

Lucy, Juvia, Wendy, and Carla all made their way back to Balsam Village in a good mood from completing their Quest and having a night to enjoy the famous tourist spot as well. Their first stop was the inn of the client, where they were staying, to get the Quest paper signed and their payment.

-Bamboo Leaf Inn-

“Ladies of Fairy Tail, lovely to see you again!” The owner of the inn greeted the three young women with a smile. “Can I hold out hope that you’ve taken care of the Devon Gang already?” He asked politely, hoping that the thugs would no longer terrorize the village.

“Yep!” Lucy said as she held out the Quest paper to the man with a grin. “You might see the police wagons come through with them in a little while.”

The inn owner beamed at the three Fairy Tail mages. “That’s truly wonderful to hear! All of Balsam Village owes you a debt of gratitude!” He took the paper from Lucy and walked over to the front desk to sign it, making the Quest complete. “But please, accept your payment with all of the thanks of our village!” He pulled out a large, thick envelope and pushed it across the counter to the mages.

Juvia picked up the envelope and opened it, seeing the large denomination Jewel bills inside. “Thank you very much.” She gave a nod to the inn owner. It would be rude to count it right in front of the man, but just a quick count by eye made Juvia believe the full payment was there.

Lucy felt a rumble in her tummy and was thankful it didn’t growl audibly. “Let’s try out some of the local food!”

Wendy nodded in agreement. “Food and then we can walk around the town before coming back to try out the hot springs!”

“As good a plan as any.” Carla said with a little smile, even as she tried to remain aloof about it. The smell from the various restaurants in the village was very appetizing on their way back to the inn.

The rest of the day and evening was filled with fun for the three women as they enjoyed all of Balsam Village’s most popular spots and got to relax in the hot springs for a while before heading to bed.

“I think I still prefer the hot spring at home.” Lucy said as she lay on her side atop the traditional futon in their large tatami mat room.

“Juvia enjoyed both, but the one at home has Natsu.” Juvia said with a happy smile as she hugged her pillow with a warm little giggle.

Wendy blushed cutely as she knew what the other women and Natsu sometimes got up to in the hot spring at the Dragons’ Den. Her own feelings for the Magma Dragon Slayer aside, and they were certainly becoming the ‘more than friends’ kind, listening to the other women talk about Natsu and hearing about both his good points and bad points had made Wendy realize just how much she enjoyed living in the Dragons’ Den since coming to Fairy Tail. ‘It’s like I’m part of a family…’ That made her pink cheeks turn bright red as she once more recalled what the other women and Natsu got up to when she wasn’t around. “H-Hey…do you think they’d let us keep these yukata?” She asked Juvia and Lucy to distract herself from her own thoughts.

Lucy looked down at the blue yukata she was wearing, covered in a pattern of green bamboo to match the inn’s name. The loose way she wore it let her tits breathe while creating a large valley of cleavage. “I’m sure we could probably buy them, if we wanted to.” The thought of wearing it for Natsu did sound appealing.

“Juvia does like this yukata.” Juvia smiled as she ran her hands over the soft cloth, her own top loosened a little to let her own blessings breathe, showing off her soft, slightly pale cleavage much like Lucy.

“I like it too.” Wendy nodded, glad that she could think about something else besides her feelings for a little while.

Carla yawned and practically curled up on a large pillow with the blanket of Wendy’s futon draped over her. “The inn owner might just give them to you as thanks for getting rid of that gang of thugs. You can always ask in the morning.” She was clearly ready for bed as she didn’t even open her eyes when she spoke.

Lucy yawned too, covering her mouth with her hand. “Yeah, let’s ask in the morning after breakfast. I’m tired too.”

The lights were quickly turned out as the three women got into their futons and were lulled to sleep by the gentle sounds of the autumn night in the hot spring village.

-Gajeel’s Home ~ One Week Later-

Levy let out a breathy moan as she clutched onto Gajeel and her entire body shivered in pleasure.

Gajeel hummed lowly, his hand gently trailing up and down Levy’s bare back, the two of them both topless as they’d grown closer than ever over the course of the Dragon Soul Ritual. “I guess I don’t need to ask if you felt your magic shift?” He had a little grin on his face as he looked down at Levy.

“No…” Levy shook her head, her face buried in Gajeel’s muscled chest as she blushed hotly. After she felt like she’d gotten her blush under control, Levy looked up into Gajeel’s eyes, letting him be the first one to see her new draconic eyes.

“Beautiful.” Gajeel smiled as he looked into Levy’s warm brown eyes, now with the partially slitted dragon-like pupils that all Dragon Slayers possessed. His hand continued to trail up and down Levy’s back as they looked into each other’s eyes.

Levy smiled beautifully at Gajeel. “Thank you.” She moved her body against Gajeel’s the skin-to-skin contact sending a warm sensation through both of them along with the little jolt of pleasure that Levy got from her breasts and nipples rubbing against Gajeel’s more muscular and defined physique. “Mmm~” She let out a little moan as she leaned forward to press a soft kiss to Gajeel’s lips.

Gajeel returned the kiss and grinned once Levy pulled back. “So, did you decide on your element?” He asked, wondering what Levy had decided on after they’d practically spent the last week in each other’s arms with minimal breaks.

“I thought about it for a while now…” Levy said with a short nod. “My Solid Script can let me conjure almost any element already and even make constructs, while other Script Magics can also apply certain effects.” She rested her head on Gajeel’s chest, listening to his heartbeat. “Even though I don’t like to fight nearly as much as a lot of the others in the Guild, I wanted something that could be strong but also weak if I wanted it to be. More importantly, I wanted it to be something that could work well with your Dragon Slayer Magic too.”

“You didn’t have to worry about me.” Gajeel said softly, gently hugging Levy as he wrapped both arms around her.

Levy giggled against his chest. “I’ll always look out for you, Gajeel.” She promised and could feel when Gajeel’s heart thumped in his chest from her words. “After hearing about the mission against the Oración Seis and finding that lost archive with information about dragons that used to live in the lands that would become Fiore, it almost seemed like fate that I found something that fit.” Levy pushed herself up until she was straddling Gajeel, placing her hands on his chest as she looked into his eyes. “I’m going to be a Poison Dragon Slayer.”

Gajeel smirked at Levy’s choice. “That fake bastard is gone and now a real Poison Dragon will fly in the sky. Gehee!” He showed his fangs with his wider grin and Levy smiled back, showing off her own fangs for the first time.

“I know where to get a magical poison as well.” Levy said before leaning forward to kiss Gajeel’s lips again. “We need to go see Miss Porlyusica.”

“Sure.” Gajeel smirked even though neither of them moved, Levy blushing slightly as she let Gajeel look at her topless, her breasts almost tingling from how Gajeel’s red eyes practically drank them in.

The two wouldn’t leave Gajeel’s house for another ten minutes.

-Fairy Tail Guild ~ Later-

Lucy had looked everywhere in the guild for Levy but couldn’t find her. “Is she on a Quest?” The frantic scramble for Quests among the various members of Fairy Tail hadn’t really calmed down at all as the day of the announcement for who would get to be part of the S-Class Promotional Trials drew closer. “I haven’t seen her since before we left to take on that Quest in Balsam Village.”

“Who’re you looking for, Lucy?” Ur asked from the barstool that she was sitting on as she sipped her chilled coffee.

“Levy. I haven’t seen her since we I got back from my last Quest.” Lucy explained to the slightly older woman.

Ur nodded and looked thoughtful for a moment. “Come to think of it, I don’t think I’ve seen her in the Guild since I got back either.” She looked down the bar to Makarov. “Master, have you seen Levy recently? Is she out on a Quest?”

Makarov blinked and was silent for a moment as he tried to recall if Levy was out on a Quest. “No, I don’t believe she’s on a Quest. It has been a couple of days since I saw her last, now that I think about it.”

Lucy was now a little concerned for her friend that hadn’t been seen in days. “Maybe I should go visit, just to check in on her?” She walked over to where Cana was sitting with Erza, Mira, Lisanna, and Wendy. “Hey, I just checked the whole guild and asked around and no one has seen Levy in the last few days. I’m gonna go check on her at her place.”

“Oh no, maybe she’s sick?” Wendy stood up from her seat. “I’ll go with you!”

The large front doors opening got everyone’s attention as Gajeel and Levy walked in. While nothing looked different about either of them at first glance, the more attentive might’ve noticed that the two were walking close enough together that they could’ve easily held hands without needing to move their arms.

“Well, speak of the devil.” Mira grinned at her own corny joke, given her magic, while Lisanna playfully nudged her big sister.

“Levy!” Lucy nearly speedwalked over to her friend with a bright smile. “I was about to come check on you! I was worried that no one had seen you in days.”

Levy blushed cutely and tapped the tips of her index fingers together. “S-Sorry about that, Lucy. I was doing something really important.”

Lucy wondered what was so important that Levy wouldn’t be seen in the Guild for days on end…until her friend’s scent hit her nose. “Hm?” She blinked and then inhaled a little deeper through her nose. Not only was Gajeel’s scent all over Levy, and hers all over Gajeel, but there was a noticeable change in her friend’s scent…a very familiar change. “O-Oh…” Lucy blushed too as she and Levy caught each other’s eyes and two pairs of draconic brown eyes met.

“Yeah…” Levy smiled, revealing her new fangs to Lucy. She didn’t expect to suddenly be pulled into a warm hug by her friend, but she happily returned it. “You were right, it DOES feel good when the ritual ends.” Levy whispered into Lucy’s ear, making the Celestial Dragon Slayer let out a cute little squeak.

“Do you want to tell the others?” Lucy offered after she and Levy pulled back from their hug. It wouldn’t stay a secret for more than a few more minutes, probably, but Lucy wouldn’t force Levy to talk about it if her friend didn’t want to.

Levy nodded, not feeling any reason to keep it a secret. “Yeah, I don’t mind.” She looked over at Gajeel with a soft little smile. “Coming, Gajeel?”

Gajeel shrugged once, but was already following after Levy and Lucy as they started walking. “Might as well.”

As soon as the three sat down at the table that Cana, Lisanna, Wendy, and Erza were at, a greeting was shared before all of the women perked up at nearly the same instant. All eyes turned towards Levy, making the bookworm blush a bit before she smiled enough to show off her fangs.

“Yeah…” Levy said as she smiled.

“Knew it!” Mira, Lisanna, and Cana called out at the same time.

Erza blinked, looked between Gajeel and Levy, then her expression softened and she smiled at both of them. “Congratulations.”

“Mn.” Gajeel gave a small grunt of acknowledgement as he sat beside Levy.

“Thank you, Erza.” Levy felt a bit better as none of the other women were gawking at her. Though Wendy was blushing almost as much as Levy was. The two blue-haired women both had cute rosy cheeks at the moment.

“Poison Dragon Slayer, huh?” Wendy asked with warm eyes and a small smile.

Levy blinked once, not expecting that her element would be figured out so quickly. “How?”

Wendy’s smile dropped a little. “I fought the fake Poison Dragon Slayer during the Nirvana Incident…the smell is similar. But your scent is much nicer.”

“Of course it is.” Gajeel said as he took Levy’s hand in his beneath the table, giving it a reassuring squeeze.

“Gajeel…” Levy smiled softly, squeezing his hand back.

Mira giggled, her blue eyes locked onto Levy. “You two are so cute~” She teased playfully.

“They are.” Lisanna agreed, getting in on the playful teasing of the newest Dragon Slayer. “Do you need some help practicing your new magic? We’d be happy to help.”

“Is your magic a solid, liquid, or gas?” Canan asked as she looked at Levy with a little smile. “We can help with any of them, but mine is mostly liquid-based.” She made a small sphere of clear alcohol form above her fingertip to demonstrate.

Levy held up her hand and a thick reddish-black smoke wafted off her hand. “It’s like this most of the time, but I feel like I could probably solidify it or make it a liquid if I tried. I’d have to test that out though.” The color of the smoke shifted to a purplish-black as Levy concentrated a little. “I can change the strength of the poison fairly easily though.” The thin smoke vanished into the air as Levy stopped using her magic.

“Looks like we’ll all have to help out if Levy is right.” Erza said with a smile at her dragon sisters and then at Levy. “We want you to be able to get the most out of your Dragon Slayer Magic.”

“Thank you very much.” Levy smiled at all of them brightly, thankful for their readiness to help her understand and practice with her new Dragon Slayer magic.

Gajeel, noticing the absence of two specific people, looked towards Lucy. “Where’s Salamander and Juvia?”

Lucy blinked at the sudden question before her cheeks turned pink. “Th-They’re at home.”

Dragon Slayer hearing picked up the first few drops of rain on the guild’s roof.

The sound got louder as the rain intensified from a drizzle and into a light shower.

“That rain came out of nowhere!” Max Alors said, the Sand Mage shaking out his hair from the water. “It wasn’t cold though.”

“More like a summer rain.” Laki agreed as she’d run in from the open air café to escape the rain. “It’s still weird for it to just start raining so suddenly like that.”

Gajeel just closed his eyes, realizing what the sudden shower likely meant. Though he didn’t want to think about the only one that he could say that he was friendly with back in Phantom Lord doing ‘that’.

“Oh…” Levy’s blush was back and went straight to bright red.

-Dragons’ Den ~ A little earlier-

“Natsu~” Juvia breathed out hotly as they kissed in the large master bedroom.

“Juvia…” Natsu rumbled back in response to his lover.

The two had been all over each other the moment the front door had closed behind their family and Wendy as everyone else headed off to the guild. Hands roamed, lips met in deep, passionate kisses, and the love and desire was filling the entire house. Juvia mewled as she let Natsu strip her, revealing a sexy set of lacy black lingerie that she’d bought—with some input from her dragon sisters—for this specific time with Natsu. The Magma Dragon Slayer drank in her perfect body greedily. Juvia’s bountiful tits, the curve of her waist that led into wide, child-bearing hips, her trim stomach, and her long legs with thick, healthy thighs, all of it hugged and accentuated by the sexy lingerie while she looked at Natsu with half-lidded eyes filled with love and desire. Natsu could already smell Juvia’s arousal and it was fanning the flames of his own, the heat within him growing like a magma chamber underground, roiling and building up pressure before it burst forth into a titanic eruption.

Juvia let out a low moan as she pushed Natsu’s vest off his shoulders to behold his bare torso. “Natsu~” She let out a low growl, her instincts rising as she trailed her hands over Natsu’s muscled chest and down his abs. Natsu’s answering rumble to her touches made Juvia abandon the slow and sensual method as she grabbed the hem of his pants and boxers and pulled both articles down in a single motion as she kneeled before him. “Mmm..." Juvia moaned throatily as Natsu’s hard cock nearly tapped her chin as it sprung free of his pants. She breathed in his scent deeply before she placed a kiss on the head of his shaft. Natsu groaned in pleasure at the feel of her soft lips against his cockhead. Gently taking hold of the base of his length, Juvia looked up and locked eyes with Natsu as she dragged her tongue along the underside of his cock from base to tip. Natsu looked her in the eye as his hand gently threaded through her beautiful blue hair and eased her towards his shaft. The smoldering gaze they held only heightened their passion as Juvia opened her mouth and lolled out her tongue to guide Natsu’s cockhead into her mouth. Her tongue cradled his length as she took him deeper and deeper into her mouth and then wrapped her lips around him as she began to bob her head back and forth, her tongue eager to please as it moved along Natsu’s cock.

“Juvia~” Natsu rumbled out as his gorgeous lover showed off the oral skills she’d developed from their previous encounters. He resisted the urge to use his hand on her head to force her to go faster, no matter how much he wanted to. While most of his Mates didn’t mind being slightly rough, occasionally, Juvia was clearly trying to give Natsu as much pleasure as she could. This was Juvia showing her love, desire, and affection for him. Natsu wouldn’t interfere with that, instead he threw back his head and let out a groan that made the air above him waver in a heat haze.

“Mmph… Mmmh…” Juvia’s muffled moans were mixed with the sexy sucking noises she was making as she bobbed her head up and down Natsu’s length. She even took him to the base, holding him in her throat and swallowing a few times because she knew how much pleasure it brought Natsu. She wanted him to feel as good as possible while they made love. Juvia absolutely loved the looks and sounds she pulled from her lover.

Eventually though, Natsu couldn't hold himself back, Juvia’s eagerness and skill becoming too much. “Juvia~” Natsu rumbled out another primal groan as a warning.

Juvia didn’t slow down her oral, if anything, she increased her speed and repeatedly deepthroated Natsu’s entire length. Her swallowing throat squeezed his shaft, trying to coax out his load. And as his cock pulses in her mouth and throat, Juvia got what she wanted.

“Yes!” Natsu nearly roared as he crashed over the edge of his release, a brief flash of flames escaping his mouth.

“MMMPH!” Juvia’s muffled exclamation was barely heard as she pulled back, letting Natsu fill her mouth with his thick, hot seed instead of her throat. Her tongue eagerly playing with her ‘treat’ before she swallowed it down, only for the second shot to be just as large as the first. Juvia reveled in the taste and heat of her lover, her instincts practically roaring within her to properly claim Natsu as her Mate. “Mmm~” She moaned lewdly as she slowly bobbed her head, suckling the entire time as she drained a third shot from Natsu and swallowed it down as well, before the fourth shot hit her tongue and tapered off, allowing Juvia to savor it as she suckled on the head of Natsu’s cock for a moment longer to make sure that she got every drop.

Natsu growled as Juvia’s half-lidded eyes looked up into his and she opened her mouth to show him what he’d given her. “Juvia~” He rumbled out her name, only to watch as she closed her mouth and then heard her audibly gulp his seed down.

“Natsu~” Juvia moaned hotly as she opened her mouth again and let her tongue loll out to show him that she’d swallowed everything.

Only a moment later, Natsu helped Juvia to her feet and nearly tore her black, lacy bra off od her, letting her large tits bounce free. “Mine~” Natsu rumbled out as he descended onto Juvia’s heaving breasts and began to massage one, while teasing the hard nipple with his thumb and index finger, while the other he took into his mouth, kissing, licking, and suckling on her nipple.

“Yes…” Juvia moaned in bliss as she ran her fingers through Natsu’s pink hair and held him to her breast. She mewled and cooed at his eager attention to her tits and her hard nipples, sending shocks of heat and pleasure throughout her body. “More, more, Natsu~” She begged with a voice like a Siren’s song to Natsu’s instincts.

Natsu was more than eager to give Juvia what she wanted as he switched breasts,, giving the other tit the same oral treatment as Juvia tossed her head back and moaned long and low, her blue locks cascading down her back. “Delicious~” Natsu growled out, loving the taste of Juvia’s skin as she eagerly held him close, pressing her body as close to his as possible.

Eventually, Juvia couldn’t wait any longer, she reluctantly pulled Natsu’s talented mouth from her breast and looked deeply into his molten amber eyes. “Natsu, take Juvia~”

Natsu kissed her lips softly, but with intense passion, nearly stealing Juvia’s breath away as he guided her back to the bed and Juvia sat on the edge before leaning back and letting Natsu take in her body in nothing but her lacy black panties. When Natsu’s took hold of the waistband of her panties, Juvia eagerly lifted her hips so that he could pull them off of her, down her legs, and toss them aside, leaving her naked before his eyes. “Beautiful~” Natsu said heatedly, his eyes roaming over Juvia’s body before locking onto her wet pussy. He leaned forward and kissed her lower lips, then dragged his tongue along her sex before he crawled over her and kissed her lips again. Looking into Juvia’s smoldering blue eyes, Natsu lined himself up and then gently eased himself into her for the first time.

“Natsu…mmm…” Juvia moaned out in bliss as they became one for the first time. She wrapped her arms around his shoulder and her legs around his hips, locking her legs behind him as he sank deeper and deeper into her depths, stretching her and filling her in the most intense and pleasurable ways until he was buried to the hilt within her, the tip of his cock gently pressing against Juvia’s deepest spot.

“Love you, Juvia~” Natsu told her with heat and passion as he kissed her lips, her cheek, her jaw, and then her neck.

The couple swiftly devolved into moans, mewls, growls, and groans of pleasure as they began to move together in bliss, finding a rhythm all their own. Their lips met and tongues played heatedly as they continued to enjoy their first coupling. Natsu had one hand groping Juvia’s ample ass, while his other was fondling one of her large tits. When he broke away from her lips to look into her eyes, Juvia could only moan and grab the back of his head to pull him back to her hungry lips as she tightened her legs around his hips. She rolled her hips to match his powerful thrusts into her soaked sex and every time he bottomed out inside of her, lights danced in Juvia’s vision.

“Natsu, Natsu, more, yes…” Juvia moaned and panted out as she clutched onto him while their pace increased further. Sweat matted her azure locks to her forehead as she pulled Natsu against her until their bodies were molded together creating more heat and sensation as she matched his pace. She needed this…needed Natsu…everything within her was telling her that and Juvia was listening. Natsu swelled inside her tight pussy and Juvia clawed at his back as she felt his cock pulse and throb within her, signals of his impending release. With a primal roar and a burst of flames appearing in the air above them, Natsu claimed Juvia’s lips and buried himself as deeply into her as possible. Juvia nearly blacked out from the intensity of her orgasm as her legs instinctively tightened around Natsu’s hips as the first heavy shot of nearly molten seed filled her.

Juvia felt Natsu’s lips on her neck, right where it met her shoulder. His fangs grazed her skin and Juvia felt her own instincts eagerly respond as her heart soared with love and joy as she latched her mouth onto the same spot on Natsu’s neck. They both bit each other just enough to draw blood, fangs piercing skin as they poured their magic into each other. As they marked each other, the two Mates held each other in a tender embrace while overwhelmed by an ecstasy that couldn’t be experienced any other way. Natsu was still pumping Juvia full of his seed as she moaned against his neck from the exquisite heat.

Sometime later, Natsu gently rolled and collapsed onto his side, bringing Juvia with him as they refused to let each other go. The two panted for breath together as they slowly came down from the intense high of becoming Mates. By pure instinct they began to gently lick at each other’s bite marks, cleaning off the blood before they nuzzled each other, reaffirming their love and their bond as they both felt the trace of the other’s magic within them. Juvia reveled in the heat she felt inside of her, the love and affection she felt for Natsu and felt from him in turn was an ocean of bliss that she never wanted to leave. This was a love that transcended all words or thoughts. It was a primal, ancient, and eternal love that would last their entire lives.

“Love you, Juvia~” Natsu said softly as he gently nuzzled Juvia.

“Love you too, Natsu~” Juvia returned his affection with gentle nuzzles of her own.

The two laid together for a while, just enjoying their closeness and sharing soft kisses, both of them having noticed the rain falling, but not caring in the slightest.

Juvia mewled cutely as her blue eyes met Natsu’s amber gaze. “Natsu, you’re insatiable~” She nearly purred as she felt Natsu’s hard cock pressing against her.

“Round two?” Natsu grinned at her before kissing Juvia’s lips.

“Uh huh…” Juvia agreed as she gently pulled herself away from Natsu and got on all four, looking over her shoulder as she swayed her hips, making her fat ass bounced and juggle enticingly. “Juvia wants it this way next~”

Natsu got onto his knees and moved behind Juvia, taking hold of her hips as he eased himself inside of her pussy again. “Your dragon sisters told you some naughty things~”

“Mmm~” Juvia moaned out as Natsu’s was deep inside of her again, his pelvis pressing up against her ass, molding her ass cheeks against him. “Yes…”

“I’m gonna make love to you as long as you want, Juvia~” Natsu whispered that promise into her ear as he leaned against her back and his hands came around to cup and massage her hanging tits, making her mewl and moan as his experienced fingers teased her nipples.

“Ah, Natsu...” Juvia moaned, pressing her ass back against Natsu. “Juvia can’t give milk yet~” She cooed as Natsu gently squeezed her tits and pinched her nipples. The idea of giving milk, of being pregnant, turned her on though, making her tremble under Natsu.

Natsu kisses Juvia’s cheek and then her lips when she turned to look at him. “No rush, Juvia. Whenever we’re ready~” He told her, making Juvia’s heart overflow with more love for her Mate. The fact that they wanted the same thing, a little bundle of joy of their own, made both of them begin to move again.

The clapping sound of Natsu’s hips meeting Juvia’s amazing ass filled the master bedroom along with a chorus of moans, mewls, and low growls as the rain continued to fall upon Magnolia Town. The shower would briefly intensify every so often as Juvia was brought to one climax after another, her powerful magic finding the familiar escape through the local weather to bring rain as she and Natsu mated and consummated their love again and again.

Juvia and Natsu have become Mates! So cute!

The weather in Magnolia goes from clear autumn day to sudden rain! Kek!

Juvia loves Natsu and wants to be a mother. She’s so cute and adorable!

Nobody saw Levy for about a week.

Because she and Gajeel were performing the Dragon Soul Ritual!

Levy has become a REAL Poison Dragon Slayer!

For a mage as versatile as Levy already is, and one that DOESN’T try to solve every problem with her fists, poison offers options from ‘mild irritant’ all the way to ‘corrosively breaks down your flesh if it touches you…or if you breath it in’, which lets Levy not harm others if she doesn’t want to, or conversely, make them die very quickly if the enemy threatens her family, friends, or guild.

How much can Levy progress in the time before the S-Class Promotion Trials in just about three weeks?

Who all will be chosen to participate?

Keep reading to find out!

Until I get your reviews, later!
