Not long after the party ended Alex was laying in bed with a naked Shia sleeping at his side, and both of them were covered in a fine layer of sweat after making love for the first time. Alex originally wanted to wait a while for Shia as she mentally matured more, but decided it would be too cruel to single her out amongst the girls traveling with him. Alex's attention was then drawn to the things that were slightly touching his face as she slept, Shia's fluffy rabbit ears. Alex fought a small internal battle, before giving in and rubbing the soft furred ears. As he felt up her ears, Shia's smile grew in her sleep as she presumably felt the contact. After sating his curiosity, Alex then left Shia alone and tried to fall sleep himself.
He didn't know how much time passed, or if he actually fell asleep before it started happening or not, but seemingly not long after Alex tried to go to sleep himself he felt a moist warmness around his newly erect manhood. Alex was unsurprised about the visiter since random night visits were a common thing among the girls, but he also knew that Rias and Grayfia tried to regulate the visits, otherwise Alex would be waking up with every girl in the manor in his bed every morning. A brief glance down was all it took for him to identify the culprit, as the pure white hair accompanied by cat ears and three tails was a dead giveaway. He smiled as he watched her work him wth her mouth, before Koneko looked up to see him watching her. Her only reaction to this however was to keep going, as she actively started trying to do as much as she could to being him closer to climax. As he was approaching the point of shooting his load Koneko suddenly stopped, and crawled up his body silently as not wake the still sleeping Shia. She then said huskily to Alex,
"Senior, please give it to me..." She then turned around and positioned herself on all fours, before reaching back with one hand and spreading herself open, completely revealing the pink flesh inside. Contrary to his usual eagerness to such a situation however, Alex momentarily hesitated as he realized what was actually going on, Koneko was in a mating season. It didn't take him long to figure out how she was triggered as it was only a couple hours before that he revealed Gabriel's condition, which must have made Koneko instinctively desire a child of her own. Alex knew that if he accepted Koneko at the moment, the chances of having a second child on the way was incredibly high. He then checked with the still waiting girl,
"Koneko are you sure? Once we start there's no going back, and we have hundreds or even thousands of years for having children." Koneko nodded at Alex's words, as she also considered what she should do after she was triggered. She could have easily gone to her sister and had her forcibly end her mating season like in the past since she herself didn't have that much minute control over touki, but she also saw this as a chance. Though she wouldn't bear his first child Koneko wanted to bear his second, even if she knew she wasn't being fair to the rest of the girls.
After conveying this to him all of Alex's hesitation disappeared, and he positioned himself at the entrance of the already soaking hole. After a momentary pause Alex's entire length was plunged into Koneko's depths, and the nekomata struggled to not let out a throaty moan as there was still someone sleeping next to them. While he then started thrusting, Alex noted the difference in having sex with Koneko than usual as, more than likely due to her heated state, her insides were almost as hot as Ravel's were. He pushed this thought to the back of his mind though, as he focused on the girl in front of him. Due to her earlier preparations it didn't take long before Alex was ready to climax, and he pushed himself as far into her as possible before pumping his seed into her depths.
As this was exactly what Koneko's body was craving she also immediately climaxed, her body shaking so intently that she lost power in her arms and fell forward onto the bed so her butt was sticking up. As her body continued to convulse, Koneko felt herself starting to calm down slightly from her mating season, though she was still heavily aroused. This usually only happened when the season was over, either naturally or forced through touki, or when the reason it started was met. If her mating season had ended without the first two happening, then that meant she was now most likely an expecting mother. Alex also felt the shift in Koneko, and pulled her into his embrace before whispering in her ear,
"Congratulations Koneko." Tears formed in her eyes from happiness, as Koneko turned to look at Alex and said,
"Thank you seni-" but was cut off when Alex pressed his finger against her lips. He then said,
"Alex. I won't have the mother of one of my children referring to me as 'senior'." Koneko paused slightly at his words, before a smile bloomed on her face and she said,
"Thank you Alex, for everything." The two had a special moment together before starting the second round, but before they could begin a voice filled with irritation spoke up,
"Geez! Don't just ignore me after you've had your fun next to me!" Alex and Koneko both looked at Shia wth shock on their faces, which irritated her even more as she said,
"What do you think these rabbit ears are for decoration?! I heard everything that happened as you thought I was sleeping! Let me in too!" She cried as she tried to pile onto the two. The next round then swiftly began with all three, and went longer into the night.

The next day Alex made his way down to have breakfast with Shia and Koneko, who surprisingly seemed to become close after the previous night, it probably helped that they were both beast type rooks. Waiting in the dining room were the residents that didn't have any plans, and those traveling Tortus with Alex, Anne, Yue, Rias, Grayfia, and Kuroka who had to be woken up this early by Grayfia. The moment Koneko walked into the room with Shia her sister narrowed her eyes, but then Kuroka's eyes widened as she noticed there was a change in how the touki in her sisters body flowed. When neither Alex nor koneko offered an explanation however she didn't bring it up, and instead started glaring at Alex before sending a message through the system stating she'll get an explanation from him later. Alex's brow twitched as he read the message, but he didn't otherwise react as he sat down and explained their next move.
"Now that we conquered Raisen we can move on from Brooke town soon and see more of the continent. The next labyrinth is the Grand Guren Volcano in the desert, though we'll probably make several stops on the way there. Until we leave I want all of you that can use it to try and familiarize yourselves with the Gravity magic, even if you can't use it as a normal spell there should still be other uses you can find for it. We'll depart in about a week." The girls nodded at Alex's words, ready to see more of this new world once they leave again. After breakfast they then left to the training rooms to familiarize themselves with their new magic, while Koneko also went to watch and assist with Shia's training since was a rook as well. The other reason however was that Kuroka purposely invited her in order to question her, and Rias and Grayfia grew suspicious as well when they heard Koneko refer to Alex by name instead of the usual 'senior'.
Knowing he was probably going to get an earful later, Alex decided to focus on his errands for the moment as he started his day.
