Meeting the Elder by ImoutoCommissions

Kaze relaxes into the water of the hot spring that his family discovered 
once, during their travels, sighing in contentment. When he opens his 
eyes, he sees Hinoka standing on the far bank, looking ethereal even 
from this distance. She waves at him and then she strips out of her 
clothes, her figure looking nothing like a recent mother, still slender 
as the day he met her. She dives into the water and swims over to him so 
gracefully that she resembles a river spirit, more than a kitsune. 
Seeing the way her red hair stands out even beneath the water nearly 
takes his breath away.

When she surfaces in front of him, the water cascades over her form and 
he admires the way she looks like that, glistening in the sunlight. 
"Where are the children?" he asks her.

She moves forward until she's upon him, and sits on his lap, face to 
face with him and nuzzles against his chest. "We're playing hide and 
seek right now, and considering how their skills with basic illusions 
are coming along, we should have a fair amount of alone time before the 
children come looking for me."

She feels something poking at her behind at that point, pressing up 
between her two tails and separating them. Grinding her butt against it, 
knowing it to be his erection, she grins and asks, "Does that please 
you?"

"Oh, yes," he replies. "That pleases me very much."

For a moment, they just enjoy their time to get closer, and he kisses 
her passionately, their bodies pressed close together. He enjoys the 
friction caused by her tails and the way she grinds on him, and it would 
almost be enough to pleasure him completely, but he wants more from her, 
and he can tell that she wants the same. Then again, that's really 
nothing new for the two of them, not even after she recently gave birth.

His desire for her grows with each and every movement, but before they 
can get much further, she interrupts him to say, "Now that the kits are 
weened, I'm going to be fertile again. I do know herbs that can be used 
to ward off a pregnancy, but...truth be told, I'd kind of like to have 
another litter."

He's so excited to hear her say that that he doesn't say anything right 
away, and instead takes a moment to imagine an even bigger family, to 
imagine her second pregnancy, and Kaze knows that he could never hope to 
turn down something like that. When he finally does respond, His 
response to her admission is to grab onto her hips and lift her, so that 
she can feel his tip teasingly prodding against her opening. "Well, if 
that's what my wife wants, then that's what my wife will get," he 
murmurs lovingly.

Squirming in impatience, she says, "Stop teasing your little 
vixen...stuff me with your sword!"

At her insistence, he does just that, shoving himself inside of her with 
one swift motion. She cries out as he does this, and he holds onto her 
tight, keeping her steady as she adjusts to the fullness, and then he 
drives up into her, thrusting until she's absolutely trembling, panting 
and desperate for him in her lust. Each thrust feels more powerful than 
the last to her, and she wants this so badly that she responds to him 
with her own movements, grinding herself down onto him and matching his 
rhythm to try to bring him closer. They have each other so figured out 
in this department by now that it's easy, that she doesn't even have to 
think to figure out what it is that he wants.

Naturally, it's all the same for him, and he always has his kitsune's 
pleasure in mind, no matter how distracting the pleasure of fucking her 
may be. He takes good care of her, as a man and as a husband, and 
especially as a lover, and each moan she lets out assures him that he's 
doing his job just right this time. Her nails sink into his shoulders 
where she holds onto him, but he finds the sharp sting more pleasurable 
than painful.

Her face looks so beautiful like this, with such wanton looks of 
pleasure that he never would have expected from her when he first met 
her. There is something especially beautiful about someone with such 
innocent and ethereal features being driven to such great lust that she 
looks at him like this, her face nearly as red as her hair, her mouth 
hanging open with her gasps and cries, her eyes partially rolled back as 
they continue to flutter shut in her pleasure.

He knows that she likely can't take any more like this, but he also 
knows that he's nearing his own limit as well. The sooner the better, he 
knows, because she wants something in particular this time. She wants 
him to finish quickly, while he's inside of her, spilling his seed into 
her in the hopes that she'll be impregnated with the new litter that she 
wants so desperately. Just thinking about it only makes him more 
excited, imagining the moment of release and the time to come after 
that, the many more times they will do this to ensure that she's really 
pregnant, and the additions to their family that await.

He is so excited by that prospect that he really begins to drive into 
her then, thrusting harder up into her until she's bouncing on top of 
him in her effort to keep up with his rhythm. Her gasps and moans send 
shivers of pleasures down his spine, and he leans forward to nuzzle her 
neck, the gentle action a sharp contrast to the rough way that he's 
fucking her. She squeaks in the most adorable way, and he moans softly 
against her, nipping at her neck.

Kaze fucks her hard until he's finally driven so close to his orgasm 
that he knows he can't wait anymore, and then he tells her, "I'm almost 
there, my little vixen."

"Please, please," she begs him, nearly pathetically now that she's so 
close as well. "Please, put a new litter of kits inside my belly!"

"Anything for you," he replies, and gives a few more rough thrusts until 
he's there, the two of them gasping in unison as he comes, driving her 
to an orgasm as well, as he expected. For a moment, they're completely 
lost in that pleasure, as Kaze erupts inside of her and as Hinoka 
trembles around him, pulsing with her climax. And then it's over, and 
The two of them relax against one another in the blissful afterglow, 
panting to catch their breath and holding each other close as they enjoy 
the lingering pleasure, which takes quite some time to subside.

They remain like that for a very long time before they  separate to wash 
themselves off and relax in the water for a while, enjoying the warmth 
of the hotspring. Eventually, they finish up their soak, and then they 
emerge from the water. Soon, their children will come looking for them, 
but they still have a little bit of time together before that. Hinoka 
lays out on a sunbaked boulder, sprawling out face down, while Kaze 
relaxes next to her, brushing out her hair first, and then the fur of 
her twin tails, taking his time and doing it slowly and gently. She 
could instantly brush herself out by using her fox magic, but she enjoys 
letting her husband pamper her like this sometimes.

While he does this, she sighs happily and says, "Our children are nearly 
a year old. Soon, they're going to gain their human forms, and be given 
their names. I think it would be best for us to visit my clan's village 
and present the children to the elders. Our clan is a matriarchal one, 
and I am a direct descendent of that matriarch."

"I see," he says, a bit surprised by this news. Despite being together 
for so long, the two of them haven't discussed that part of her past. He 
knows more about her time spent serving Lady Inari, and he hadn't ever 
thought to ask about a past before that, though he should have known 
that there would be one. He certainly didn't expect her to be from such 
an honorable clan. However, he is not put off by the idea in the 
slightest, even if knowing her lineage makes her seem a bit more 
daunting. It's still his wife, after all. "Yes, that does sound like a 
good idea. You just point me in the right direction, and I'll make sure 
you and the children get there safely!"

~X~

Not long after that, they prepare for their journey, and Hinoka informs 
him of the correct location. They start to get together what they need 
to travel that distance, as well as inform the kits where they will be 
going and what they will be doing. Once his family is prepared, Kaze 
begins the long trip to Hinoka's village. They travel for quite some 
time, covering a great distance before they finally come upon it, but it 
is exactly where Hinoka says it is. He can't help feeling a little bit 
nervous about this, though he doesn't let that show.

As they make their way into the village, it isn't hard for him to notice 
that nearly everyone he sees is very different, but similar to the woman 
at his side. He sees some who are small and childlike, with a single 
tail, and he sees some appearing to be in adolescence, like his wife, 
with two tails, and he sees those who appear more adult, with anywhere 
between three and six tails. Some people recognize Hinoka, calling out 
to her and greeting her as they keep walking, and she seems very happy 
to see so many familiar faces.

However, she doesn't have time to get caught up right now, and she 
doesn't stop to talk to anyone, leading Kaze directly to the hall of the 
elders instead. When they get there, standing outside of the imposing 
looking building, she tells him to wait outside with the children, and 
then she goes in alone. Inside, there are nine elders, two on each side, 
four total, with seven tails, four total with two on each side with 
eight tails, and in the middle, the largest one, with nine tails. All 
are in their fox form, and the ninetails is big enough that she looks as 
though she could likely crush Hinoka under her paw.

Hinoka bows before them in turn, and bows before the matriarch for the 
longest. "Honorable Great Grandmother," she says, speaking to the 
matriarch.

"Yes, little Hinoka? This is an unexpected visit, what brings you here?" 
she asks affectionately, sounding like a doting grandmother for a moment 
there. However, she breathes in before the girl has a chance to reply, 
and catches a whiff of Hinoka's scent, and can quickly determine that 
she's broken her vow of chastity and taken up with a human man, having 
children in the process.

"You honestly broke your vow to Lady Inari? And you sullied yourself 
with a human? Have you no shame, girl? I thought you were raised better 
than that! Bringing dishonor on your goddess as well as your clan's 
name! Did you even think about the consequences or did you simply act 
blindly? Honestly, I never knew you could be so reckless or impulsive! 
And to think you would waltz in here like nothing ever happened!" She 
continues to scold her, sounding more angry with each word, and Hinoka 
shrinks back, trembling in fear as fire begins to lace her great 
grandmother's breath. However, she knows that she can't let this 
continue, not when her great grandmother doesn't know the whole story, 
and not when she really has nothing to be ashamed of.

"B-but," Taking a deep breath, she steels herself despite her 
intimidation and says, "Kaze saved my life and is a very honorable man, 
and I was told to reward him in whatever way he saw fit. However, we 
were soon to grow close, and Lady Inari blessed our union with the red 
thread of fate, and we have a happy family, and one of our children is 
even blessed as Lady Inari is!"

After listening to Hinoka's words and taking a few agonizing moments 
considering them, the elder is visibly calmed. "If that's the case, then 
I suppose it can't be helped. You always did have a good head on your 
shoulders, so perhaps I was a bit too quick to scold you. Very well, 
please bring your family in now. I would like to meet them."

Hinoka goes outside to usher them in, and Kaze does his best to not 
outwardly show how daunted he is by the elders before him. She gives him 
a reassuring smile, letting him know that everything is going well, but 
that doesn't do much to ease up his nerves at all. He stands directly in 
front of the matriarch, and her eyes bore into his soul for quite some 
time before she finally speaks again. Begrudgingly, she says, "Yes, 
he's...acceptable." However, Hinoka gets the feeling that she's only 
holding back out of habit, and that she approves more than she lets on. 
At the very least, she isn't being scolded again.

And then she asks for her children to be brought forth and presented to 
her. During the trip, they finally gained their human forms, though they 
look more like three year olds than the nearly one year olds that they 
are. The first is one of their sons who bows before the elder and says, 
"It's great to meet you, grandma." He has dark hair, like his father.

Once he's introduced himself, he shows off the current range of his 
powers, starting with a few simple illusions. Illusions are one of his 
strong suits, so he spends the most time on that before his mother steps 
forward to speak his name for the first time. "This is Ryoma."

"Welcome to the family and our clan, Ryoma."

After him, one of his brothers steps forward and does a few illusions 
before proudly producing a small wisp of fox fire. This is his strong 
suit in terms of powers, something that he's put a lot of work into. 
After stepping back, Hinoka comes forward to introduce the red haired 
boy as Saizo.

A dark haired girl steps forward next, doing her illusions rather well, 
perhaps even better than her brothers, and then a smaller wisp of fire 
and a small summoning. Her mother introduces her as Setsuna, and the 
elder is proud to welcome her into the clan as well.

Last but not least is their final daughter, who bears a striking 
resemblance to Hinoka. She goes through her illusions and her fire, but 
by far and away, her best skill is her conjuring of a children's top.

"She is the one I told you about before, blessed as Lady Inari is." The 
daughter has the genitals of both genders, just as the goddess Hinoka 
serves does. "Her name is Hiko."

"She's going to do great things if she really is so blessed. Welcome to 
the family and the clan."

The four children have a hard time remaining serious now, and as soon as 
Hiko is done being presented, they begin playing with each other, not 
paying any attention to what's going on as they do illusions or conjure 
toys to play with. Kaze leans down to play with them and look after 
them, still finding the elders to be incredibly imposing and finding it 
easier to be more on level with his children. Hinoka smiles fondly at 
all of them, glad that she ended up here, with this family, even if it 
got her scolded at first.

She's happier now than she ever thought possible, with Kaze and her 
children, and she wants a big family, bigger than she has now by quite a 
bit. She hopes that the two of them will continue to have kits until 
that goal is realized, and that their travels will be filled with just 
as much happiness as they have up until now, if not more. Her heart 
feels so full of love for them as she smiles down at them that she 
doesn't know how she could possibly hope to contain it all.

The elder watches this with her own fond smile, able to tell the gist of 
what Hinoka's thinking just by looking at her. "You and your family are 
more than welcome to stay in the village for a while. We'll be happy to 
have all of you."

"Thank you, Honorable Great Grandmother," she replies, and she bows. 
Kaze stands to do the same.

"Thanks, grandma!" the children chorus, all bowing together in nearly 
perfect unison.

"Congratulations on having such a fine litter of kits," she goes on to 
say. "And good luck, both with raising them and with the litter in your 
belly."

For a moment, her words don't quite sink in, but when they do, Hinoka is 
overcome with a fresh wave of joy. Since she and Kaze have decided to 
try for more, they've taken every opportunity they've had to be alone 
and have done all they can to ensure that she conceives. She can't 
believe that the elder can already see and know, but she's overjoyed to 
realize that their efforts have paid off. Soon, she will likely begin 
showing more signs that will be noticeable to her, but now, she already 
knows that she's expecting.

When she looks to Kaze, he smiles back at her, looking just as overjoyed 
as she feels. The children play on, not yet understanding what the words 
mean, but soon, they'll be happy to learn that they have new siblings to 
play with on the way. Their family is growing quickly, and it's only 
going to get bigger from there.
