Vixen A.D. 2 | Chapter 10

Note: There are several paragraphs missing from the end. They will be added this week. This is still a rough draft.

Mace shut the elevator door behind them as they moved back up into Delta.

A previously dead panel flickered to life. “Oh, nice,” Mace said. He approached it and flicked through some of the various windows and screens on the display. “Oh… great. Well, that’s not too bad, I guess.”

The elevator slowed, and an indicator above blinked. “What’s wrong?” Faye asked.

Mace sighed. “The AI can’t turn on a couple things. My guess is it’s something physical it can’t get to, but the defenses are all online. It’s just an annoying thing we’ll have to take care of at some point.”

Faye nodded. Cinder trailed behind her, then made her way to the door. The elevator stopped.

Its doors opened, revealing the same entryway they’d come in before. Mace led them to it, and back to the initial airlock, then shut the doors as they started to dress down. “I need a shower,” Faye groaned.

Cinder nodded. “Me too.”

“The rooms have private showers,” Mace added.

“There’s no communal shower?” Faye teased.

Mace raised a brow. “Actually, there is.”

Cinder and Faye both blushed. “Oh,” Faye replied. “I’ll have to keep a mental note of that.”

“Me too,” Cinder giggled.

“I agree, though. I need a shower after all that shit,” Mace added.

Finally, they were back into their normal clothes and out of the armor and extra gear. He typed in a code and the interior lock doors opened, revealing the first ingresses back into Delta they walked through not too long ago. “Let’s get freshened up,” Mace said. “Then some dinner. Maybe a movie.”

“Oh yeah, they have rec rooms here,” Cinder said. “I thought I saw that on one of the PDAs,” she added.

Mace nodded. “They do. So, how’s that sound? Our defenses are up. Let’s do that dinner and movie.”

Faye’s tail swayed merrily. “Count me in.”

“Me too,” Cinder smirked.

“Alright.” Mace grinned. “Let’s get started.”

Mace slipped into the shower with Faye after discarding his clothes. He could feel the grime, some blood, and sweat against different parts of his body like a thin sheet. That wouldn’t do.

Especially since tonight would be a date night. After surviving the Gorejaws, seeing the wreckage of the other tram, reflecting on all the near misses and more, Mace decided he’d resume his activities of being a little more forthcoming.

What else was there to do, anyway?

He opened the shower door and stared at Faye as steamy, hot water ran over her nude kitsune body. Mace smiled. “Hey sexy,” he chuckled.

“Are you coming in?” she teased, sticking her tongue out.

Mace nodded. “Of course,” he replied. “We still need to do a quick rundown at medical,” he said. “Just in case.”

Faye playfully nudged her ass against his crotch as he stepped in. “I won’t argue with that,” she giggled.

Mace smirked. None of them seemed to have any serious injuries, so it seemed alright to take a shower, clean up, and then do a scan. In truth, this would be the only time he would allow for it. It wasn’t good protocol.

One night wouldn’t cause issues, though.

“Not skipping the med-lab again,” Mace said. “Just so you know,” he laughed.

Faye nodded. “Fair,” she smiled warmly.

Mace reached, slipping his hand around her hips. He squeezed, then moved down to her backside, cupping and gripping a handful of her ass. She jumped a little in surprise, but then leaned into it. “Like that?” Mace asked.

“Hell yeah,” she said. “I like being groped,” Faye admitted.

“Good,” Mace said. “I plan to do it a lot more.”

“Better,” Faye smirked.

He stretched his arms and let out a yawn.

They’d gathered in the rec room. It took him a minute or two to get everything set up since it hadn’t been used in forever, since it hadn’t been used at all. At least not from what he could tell. Nothing seemed worn, moved, or lived in.

But that made sense. Delta was new.

In a way, he was, too. The Mace from before was not the same Mace as the one that stood here now in one of the large rec rooms closest to the first kitchen, but someone else. The amnesia had changed him. Sure, he had all the same memories, habits, and confidence of before. He had the same intelligence and know-how.

But the way those things processed in his mind was different, though subtly. That subtlety amounted to a perceptible change in who Mace was, and he knew that.

He paced around the room one more time, watching as Cinder and Faye made their way in. Faye immediately took to the nearest couch, clad in some particularly revealing, mildly goth clothing.

She was doing it on purpose, and Mace was okay with that. Cinder, on the other hand, had decided to reveal some of her body as well. She wore a skimpy miniskirt, tight blouse that showed off cleavage because it didn’t quite fit her right, and showed off the skin behind the buttons because it wouldn’t button all the way, some bright lipstick, and knee-socks.

“You both dressed particularly… comfortable,” he said. “Any reason?”

“She gave me the idea,” Cinder said. “It seemed like fun. Plus, it’s taking my mind off things.”

“I want to pretend everything is normal and besides, this is date night, right?” Faye asked, teasing him with a smile.

He studied her thighs, bust, curvy hips and tight figure. “Okay, you got me. It’s just… I mean, I’m a very straight, healthy guy, so, uh…”

“Yeah, I know. I bet Cinder knows, too,” Faye winked.

Cinder blushed. “I’m just having fun.”

“Uh huh,” Faye teased again.

Mace smiled. He took a couple steps between them. Cinder turned and sat next to Faye, curling up against her. Faye did not reject, and instead, seemed to embrace it. Two playful, sexy, barely clothed kitsunes right in front of me—they know what they’re doing, Mace thought.

“I’m going to run to the kitchen and grab us some food. Drinks, too. There’s some already in here because this room is already stocked, you know, being a rec room and relaxation place. But I want some extra food. Movie tonight, right? We never picked one,” Mace said.

They considered his words. Faye spoke first. “Something horror.”

“I don’t know,” Cinder said. She looked to Mace. “Hold our hands?”

“You tease.”

“Yeah, hold on our hands, Mace,” Faye said. “In case we get scared. You know you want to.”

“I won’t complain. We’ll find something, then,” he said.

“Steak please,” Faye said. “And sausage. Beef. Chicken. Meat. Lots of meat,” she added. “And perhaps your meat later.”

“Faye!” Cinder gasped.

“Shut up, you know you want him,” Faye laughed.

Cinder didn’t protest. “Okay, you win.”

“Really?” Mace asked.

She nodded. “Yes.”

“Good. I’m tired of pretending I’m not attracted to you both… it’s just grating on me. I want to do terrible things to you and I’m a huge fan of kitsunes…” Mace admitted. “It’s a recent discovery,” he added.

“How’s that working out for?” Cinder said, tugging up her miniskirt.

He gulped. Cinder’s ass was hanging out from her skirt, the bottom curves of her supple cheeks now visible. “It’s working quite well.”

God, she has such a nice ass…

Faye slid a hand down to Cinder’s backside, then gripped a handful. “Nice ass,” she teased.

Cinder yipped. “Eep!” she let out a breath. “Wasn’t expecting that.”

“You did that on purpose,” Mace said.

Faye winked. “Me? Torture you? Cinder? Abide by my secret motives? Nooooo…”

“Hush,” Cinder said. “I don’t know what you’re rambling on about.”

Faye laughed. “Sure Cinder, like you didn’t ask me to help you pick out something slutty!”

Cinder flushed hot pink, rosy. “I… I did not! Well… okay, I did, and maybe I used slutty…”

“Hm. Heh,” Mace shook his head, smirking.

“What?” they giggled.

He smiled. “Nothing. Just excited.”

They grinned back at him. “I want some meat, too,” Cinder smiled. Her face was mischievous. “Same thing Faye is ordering,” she said.

With that, Mace made his way to the kitchen.

***

He returned from the kitchen not long after with plates of steak, baked potatoes, corn on the cob, sautéed mushrooms, blooming onions, and more. He set them out, went back into the kitchen again, and returned with a slew of condiments, dipping sauces, and fries. “Made sure to get plenty,” he said.

Faye licked her lips. Cinder was practically salivating. “Oh, this is going to be so good,” Cinder murmured as Faye joined in the feast.

Mace sat on the couch next to them. They immediately snuggled up against him as he turned on the nearby display and cycled through the movies they had. In moments, a film was playing. They dined.

“Oh, that was so good,” Faye said.

Cinder leaned back. “I’m full,” she managed. “Mostly.”

Faye nudged the kitsune, then whispered something in her ear. Mace watched as Cinder’s eyes widened a bit, she blushed, and smirked. There was a brief pause, some giggling, and then she looked over at him. “Can I try something?” Cinder asked.

Mace raised a brow, still relaxed and comfortable on the sofa. “Yeah, what’s that?”

“Can I suck your dick?” Cinder asked bluntly.
