Mated To The Nine Tailed Fox

ONCE upon a time, far from the land of the earth, nine-tailed foxes were born from the mountain, blessed by the forests, and lightened by the moon.

A legendary fox with nine tails isn't the only one that is created by the gods and goddesses. Werewolves were on it as well.

At first, they were made to be an animal alone. They were just a fox with nine tails, and a height compared to a bear. But Ruyanio, their world where they were originally bound to exist, was accidentally destroyed by an asteroid. The moon spirit made a way for them to still live peacefully, and they found earth.

After having to create different creatures on earth, a human was born from a tree.

Humans are made to be the food of all animals. Especially their liver and heart. It is to enhance the energy they kept on their stomach. It is most likely called 'fox bead'. But the thing is, humans have their guardians. Foxes and werewolves find it hard to intervene in the human world.

Werewolves gave up, foxes didn't. But not to bring troubles to the human realm, but to bring unity in the entire world.

Girl foxes are too powerful and intelligent, so all of the girls are the ones assigned to lead each pack.

And I'm one of those leaders. Yes, I belong to the creature called a nine-tailed fox.

"KAGOME! Come here, stop lecturing the kids and eat!" Mom called for me. I rolled my eyes and wiggle my tails. Sitting here feels like a second. I want to stay!

"Coming!" I replied but winked at the kids. It's my non-verbal way of communication to tell them that I'm just joking.

"I want to hear more stories, Kagome! Are you gonna leave so soon?" one of the kids asked and pouted.

I shook my head.

"I'm not!"

Right after I said those words, a hard blow from the wind appear and I felt my Mom's finger, twisting my ears.

"You're not, huh? Come here, brat!" Mom said and travels through the air while still holding my ears, leaving those children laughing at me, to our sweet little home.

Psh.

"Fine, sorry! Don't torture me anymore, I won't do it again, mom. I promise!" I said while she was still following me with a piece of wood in her hand.

I wrapped my tails all around my body.

"Stop right there, I will give you a present!!" Mom said.

She's not good at lying. Grrr!

Suddenly, a sound from the gong resounds. This means humans are nearby, we have to hide the rest of our tails leaving only 1 visible to their eyes.

We have to hide it to keep our powers safe.

"Whatever, I lost my appetite to scold you. Just bring this nuts to the human realm and sell them with a hug. Collect those little energies you will get, okay?" Mom said.

Human realm, my foot. We're already in their world but she keeps on calling it that way. She made it a habit.

I smiled to my ears and left. Finally! I found a chance to see him again.

"How much?"

"3 hugs only!"

"How about a kiss?"

"Yeah, but you will only get half of the nuts."

Any physical affection can produce human energy. So I will grab whatever is available.

"Alright, here we go," he said and smacked me.

His energy is so little, maybe because he's a pervert.

"Gross," I said behind that human.

"Hey..." I heard a whisper behind my ears, and caressed through my waist. It's him.

The rest of my tails are wagging because of the excitement I am feeling right now. I can't help myself!

But I have to... tch.

"Are you done with your products, Ms. Gorgeous?" he asked me. I smiled at him.

"Almost, Polo. I still have to sell half of this tray.

"Hmmm, then how about I buy them all? Payment is just a hug, right?" I asked.

"Yep, but---"

"No buts," he said and hugged me.

His energy is so heart-melting. I can feel how much he loves and cares for me. Ughh! This energy could make my tail glow!

Help yourself, Kagome!

"How can I resist you? You're so... cute."

He blushed and let go of the hug.

"You're a sly fox!" he said and laughed.

Human energy can be collected without any return. But it'll make them weaker. So what we do is just offer them fruits, nuts, juice, so it's a tie.

But Polo is giving it to me willingly. So I guess he's beginning to lose weight because of the energy I got from him.

Aish! He's making my heart thump faster.

"See you at the festival," I said and traveled through the air away from him.

Humans at this time know creatures like us. But they're not scared. I hope we won't turn evil in their eyes when the time comes.

"Hi, Kagome! I saw you and Polo, huh? You're hugging! Have you collected enough energy to become human?" Anya said, my friend.

I laughed and gave her a sign to keep quiet.

"Shh! Shut your butt! I'm still the leader of the Cobalt pack. I'm waiting for Kira to take over so I could enjoy Polo's company without thinking of protecting my pack," I replied.

"Get through with it over a glass of wine. Do you like that human?" she asked. I accepted the wine she's been holding and drank it.

"Yes, I do. I even invited him to attend our festival," I said.

I'm so excited to show him how many tails I possessed and how powerful a leader is.

"What? Are you crazy? Humans can't see foxes' nine tails! You, of all people, should know that!" she said. I laughed and tapped her shoulder.

"Don't you trust me? Polo isn't what you think he is. He will never betray me, Anya," I said confidently.

I know what kind of person he is, I am the last person who'll doubt him.

"Your relationship isn't clear as water either, Kagome. How can you be so sure?" Kayla, who just came in, said.

I rolled my eyes and took a sip of wine before answering.

"Trust is the main ingredient in love, girls. You will know it once you meet your soulmate, the person you will love with your whole being," I said.

"Is it a requirement to love a human while in love with a mere animal like you?" Kayla asked with a grin on her face.

Kayla and Anya are the leaders of the other fox pack. Mountain spirit always conducts a meeting for leaders, and that's what made us closer to each other.

Despite having similarities with our bad personalities, we managed to keep in touch as friends.

"What do you mean to love a human? He only loves me. He barely calls me an animal, Kayla."

"It's better for you to see, Kagome. Just ready your heart," Anya said.

"You both know this?" I asked.

"No more chitchats, Kagome. We've been telling you this the entire year. Yet, you didn't listen," Kayla said.

After that, both of them held onto my hand and teleported to the city, where Polo lives.

"Here, look for yourself. Watch at your own risk," Anya said. They're still as sophisticated as ever even at this moment.

My heart thumps so fast that I can almost hear it. I never believed these two with their accusations with Polo, but my tails are giving me the same vibes.

I looked inside through my eyes by not entering his house.

"How was it?" Anya asked.

"Why don't you look for yourself, goddamn it!" I said out of irritation.

Kayla laughed a little and tapped my shoulder.

"Let's go back to the festival, I believe you saw enough," Kayla said.

"They're just cooking... She's instructing him how to. That's just it..." I said, while my hands were trembling and started to grow fur again.

"While he's holding her hand?" Anya asked.

"And hugging her from behind?" Kayla added.

"You're not this low, Kagome," Anya said.

"Let's go," I said and traveled back to the foxes' field.

I can't afford to see another scene that'll ruin my trust in him again.

I'll just believe him. No matter what.

WHILE these foxes' parents are getting ready to get the light from the moon spirit, all the guardians met at once.
