"The way you think is dangerous, young lady," Kaguya said, pretending to be serious.
"Isn't this kind of thinking quite normal?" Sayo replied with a sly smile, drawing circles on Kaguya's chest with her delicate finger.
"What do you mean by 'dangerous'?" Kaguya asked, grabbing Sayo's wandering hand with a mischievous grin.
"Well, you've been quite 'impressive' lately, haven't you?" Sayo teased.
"Impressive? In what way?" Kaguya raised an eyebrow.
"Defeating the Revolutionary Army all on your own. Isn't that 'impressive' enough?" Sayo said with a knowing smile.
"That was the effort of the entire Imperial Guard," Kaguya corrected her. "I merely gave a helping hand."
"Modesty is polite, but too much of it becomes false humility," Sayo said playfully, her finger tracing lazy circles on Kaguya's chest before playfully poking the center of her breast with a delicate touch.
"Alright, fine. But I don't see what's so impressive about it," Kaguya said, catching Sayo's hand to stop her teasing.
"Really? Or perhaps…" Sayo's eyes twinkled mischievously, "you only feel 'impressive' when you're with Kurome?"
"Hey, don't twist things!" Kaguya coughed lightly, sensing the underlying tone in Sayo's words.
"Oh, or maybe," Sayo continued with a slight hum, "you'd feel even more 'impressive' if you got Kurome's sister into bed too."
"That's impossible!" Kaguya quickly pulled Sayo closer by the waist. "Alright, you little minx, daring to tease me like this. See how I'll punish you."
Sayo pushed herself out of Kaguya's embrace and giggled as she dashed toward a nearby bedroom. "Punish me? Save that for Akame. I'll pass."
"Wait, don't run!" Kaguya shouted, chasing after her.
Whether it was by accident or design, Sayo had fled into one of the bedrooms.
"Heh, now you've got nowhere to run," Kaguya smirked as she stepped inside.
Before Kaguya could finish speaking, Sayo's warm body suddenly pressed against her, arms snaking around Kaguya's neck and pulling her into a deep kiss. Sayo's hand slipped inside Kaguya's clothing, swiftly finding and grabbing hold of her plump breast, kneading and rubbing it with firm yet teasing motions.
As her fingers pinched Kaguya's sensitive point, a soft moan escaped Kaguya's lips, her body momentarily weakening under Sayo's touch.
But Kaguya quickly regained her composure. "You little rebel," she murmured, her voice laced with amusement and desire. Not to be outdone, she swiftly regained control, pushing Sayo onto the bed with a playful grin.
The sound of clothes rustling soon followed. Through the thin curtain, two figures could be seen entwined, and not long after, soft, melodic sighs filled the room like the gentle trickle of a stream.
Much later.
Kaguya let out a satisfied breath, feeling the heat drain from her body. She lay there contentedly, cradling the soft form of Sayo in her arms, her fingers lazily tracing along Sayo's smooth skin, enjoying the pleasant sensation of her warmth.
"This is the life," Kaguya thought, "All that fighting can go to hell."
Sayo, nestled against Kaguya's chest, suddenly broke the silence. "What do you plan to do with Night Raid?"
"Hmm? Why ask that now?" Kaguya asked, curious.
"I've been meaning to ask you for a while, just never found the time," Sayo replied.
"Night Raid, huh?" Kaguya mused, her hand gently kneading Sayo's soft breasts, her fingers rubbing slow circles over the sensitive skin. "It depends on them. If they accept my rule and stop rebelling, or at least behave themselves, I probably won't bother them."
Sayo let out a quiet sigh as she felt Kaguya's teasing touch, her body responding to the gentle pressure. "And if they keep opposing you like before?" Sayo asked, blinking curiously.
"If they have any sense, they'll make the right choice," Kaguya chuckled. "Without the Revolutionary Army backing them, they don't have the strength to raise another army. They can't possibly fight against the Imperial Guard with just a few people."
"You still haven't answered my question," Sayo pouted, shifting her body slightly, causing her breasts to sway temptingly.
"You little seductress," Kaguya thought, feeling the softness beneath her fingers.
"In that case, I'll probably lock them all up," Kaguya said, her hands continuing to wander over Sayo's body. "Though they're not bad people, they're too stubborn and reckless. They're always a potential threat, and who knows if they'll be swayed into rebellion again."
"Are you worried they'll become the next Revolutionary Army?" Sayo asked.
"Mm, after all, they were part of the Revolutionary Army. It's hard to say they won't be influenced," Kaguya replied.
"Then kill them," Sayo said suddenly, her voice cold.
"What?" Kaguya blinked in surprise. "Kill them?"
"Exactly," Sayo's eyes gleamed with a sharp light. "If they're a potential threat, why not eliminate them? Kill them and destroy their base. That way, there will be no more future problems."
Kaguya coughed awkwardly, "Uh, Sayo…"
"Yes?"
"That expression of yours was pretty dark just now," Kaguya remarked.
Sayo suddenly flipped over, pinning Kaguya beneath her. With her arms propped on either side of Kaguya's head, she stared down with her bright eyes. "Tell me honestly, did you spare Night Raid because you've taken a liking to the women in the group?"
"How could that be?" Kaguya denied, trying to sound righteous.
Even if that were true, she couldn't admit it! After all, who knew if Sayo would turn out to be as jealous as Kurome. Having her house on fire wasn't something she wanted.
There's an old saying: "Confess and you'll end up in prison; resist and you'll go home for the holidays."
"Really?" Sayo asked, her expression doubtful.
"Of course!" Kaguya declared with utmost sincerity. "And besides, there's a guy in Night Raid too. How could I possibly be interested in a man?"
Tatsumi hadn't even made an appearance before being killed off. Brand had sacrificed himself during the battle against the Imperial Army, leaving Lubbock as the only remaining man.
Maybe Kaguya should quietly take care of Lubbock before anyone noticed...
Kaguya thought to herself darkly.
"I didn't know you had such… tastes," Sayo said with mock surprise.
That didn't sound right. After a moment of thought, Kaguya realized she'd gotten so used to thinking of heterosexuality as the "odd one out."
Yeah, after all, yuri is the best.
Kaguya's arm wrapped around Sayo's waist, pulling her soft body close again. The feel of warm, smooth skin against her and the sensation of their breasts pressed tightly against each other, with the small, firm pink buds brushing and teasing between them, was intoxicating.
"What, still want to be punished?" Kaguya teased.
Sayo instinctively brought her finger to Kaguya's lips, giving her a playful side-eye. "I'm not afraid of you."
"Is that so?" Kaguya's lips curled into a mischievous grin.
Just as Sayo sensed something wrong and tried to escape, Kaguya swiftly flipped over, pinning her down on the bed.
"Please, spare me!" Sayo's sweet voice rose like a flute, but before she could say more, Kaguya silenced her with a deep kiss, squeezing her breasts firmly, cutting off her protest as she melted into the rising waves of pleasure.
