A Fox's Love (American Kitsune Book 1)

by Brandon Varnell

  Why was it so stupid? There were many reasons. The two biggest though was that, aside from the fact that it didn't actually get his head off Lilian's lap, it also brought both him and her a lot of pain.

  Because the move was done out of reflex, Kevin had not taken into account the fact that Lilian's head was hovering just a little bit above his. So when he jerked his head up at such startling speeds that Lilian had no time to do anything other then widen her eyes, his forehead ended up smacking into the red head's chin, eliciting a cry of pain from the girl as her head was jerked backwards and upwards from the force of the unintentional strike.

  Newtons Third Law of Motion states that when one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force of equal magnitude and opposite in direction to that of the first body. That is exactly what happened here. When Kevin's head hit Lilian's, her chin exerted the same amount of force that his head did, launching him back to his original position on her lap.

  At least it did until the boy, in his pain, rolled off her lap and then off the bed entirely. He landed on the floor with a loud 'oof!' and brought his hands up to his head where it had met Lilian's chin.

  He couldn't be sure because of the pain he was in, but Kevin was almost positive he was seeing stars.

  No. Wait. Those were just spots where his vision had blurred out. Never mind.

  "Ouch," Lilian moaned in pain as Kevin released his own pained groans on the floor below her. "You have a really hard head, Beloved. That hurt."

  "I-I'm sorry," Kevin apologized automatically, completely missing the term of endearment that she had used for him. He had more important things on his mind. Like his headache for one. It had come back and brought friends. "I didn't mean to do that."

  "It's okay," Lilian shook her head to clear it, then leaned over the side of the bed to look at Kevin. "Are you alright? You look like you took a hard fall."

  "Yeah, I'm fine," Kevin sat up, still looking a bit dazed. "Thank you for your... Gurk!"

  Yes. Kevin did just say 'gurk'.

  The reason for this was, naturally, Lilian. The girl in question was still sitting there, looking at him with what could only be concern as she absently rubbed her now sore chin. There was a slight bruise on it, though it was disappearing at an astonishing rate.

  She was also still naked. It was bad enough that she was female. That she had absolutely no clothes on was quite possibly the worst situation for a boy like Kevin to be in.

  He could see every bountiful curve of her glorious body. No part of her was invisible to his eyes. Even the most sacred place a woman possessed was exposed to him as she let her legs rest over the side of the bed so she could look down at him.

  Eric would have likely died of a heart attack if he had seen what Kevin was seeing.

  Kevin felt like he was going to be sick. His stomach was doing flip flops and this was on top of all the butterflies he could feel, fluttering around in his gut. He could feel his heart hammering against his chest like a war drum or some kind of battering ram as it did its utmost to burst out from his rib cage. It wouldn't surprise him if it ended up exploding from all the pressure.

  Worse still, he could feel all the blood in his body rushing towards two specific places. One of them was his face. The other shall not be mentioned for the sake of keeping this chapter to an M-rating.

  "I'm glad you're alright," the girl said with a relieved sigh as she placed a hand against her chest, inadvertently drawing his eyes towards her large and perfectly shaped... um... assets. If Kevin's mouth had not been dry before, it was now. "I was so worried when you passed out."

  "Gu... Huh... What..."

  "I wasn't really sure what to do," Lilian continued, completely heedless of the way Kevin's eyes were beginning to bulge out of their sockets as he continued to stare at her nude frame. His face was beginning to turn blue as well, all except for the twin beacons of red on his cheeks. Breath Kevin, breath. "All I could think to do was put you in bed, but I wanted to do something like what you did for me when I was injured, except you didn't really have an injury that I could bandage."

  "Wha... Wha... Wha..."

  "Beloved?" Lilian looked down at Kevin in concern as his face began turning purple. Without really thinking about it, the beautiful girl climbed off the bed, got on the floor and crawled towards him on all fours.

  Kevin thought he might die of sexy. Since the moment he had laid eyes on this girl (all of one or two hours ago before he passed out), he had known she was a beauty beyond most. Never was that beauty more obvious than now.

  Crawling on all fours, she moved invariably closer with each 'step' she took. Placing one hand in front of the other in an almost painfully slow―at least to Kevin, feline motion that inevitably pushed her breasts together with each step. Behind the girl, her tail swayed hypnotically like an inverted pendulum, drawing the eye along the curve of her back to her small, shapely rear.

  It was the most erotic act he had ever witnessed.

  What was worse was that Lilian had no clue she was doing it.

  And wait.... what was this about a tail?

  It should be noted that this event (the sexy crawling scene, a classic among the more perverted animes and mangas out there) took place within the span of 2.5 seconds. Fortunately, this story was partially based off of Shōnen and Seinen manga.

  And while Lilian's “sexy crawl scene” was technically not cool, it was impressive...―and hot. Therefore, the Law of Temporal Variability, which states that time is not a constant and can change based on what is happening at the time, applies here just as well as when the hero does something 'cool' like stopping an energy beam of DOOM from destroying the Earth with nothing but his bare hands.

  Or a giant Mecha Robot. Those are awesome.

  Before Kevin had the chance to ponder the strange, furry object swaying behind her, Lilian was directly in front of him. The poor boy's entire body froze solid as the red haired beauty crawled onto his sprawled lap, straddling his legs with her gorgeous thighs as her hands went to the back of his neck.

  With little warning, she pulled his head towards hers. For a second, his mind went blank.

  It then went into a rapid series of thoughts that passed through his head at a rate so insane it was a wonder brain matter didn't start oozing out of his ears from overheating.

  His thoughts were as follows: 'Ohmygod! Ohmygod! Ohmygod! She'sgoingtokissme! Ohmygod! Ohmygod! Ohmygod! Thoseboobs! Ohmygod! Ohmygod! WhatdoIdo!? WhatdoIdo!?'

  Yeah, they went a little something like that, only more frantic and even harder to understand.

  (Un?)fortunately, she didn't kiss him, but it's not like what she did was much better for his blood pressure. She pressed her forehead against his, bringing their faces so close that Kevin could make out every millimeter of her flawless, unblemished skin and lovely facial features.

  This was the first time he had been in such an intimate position with any girl ― Kevin was not going to count when his head had been lying on her lap, he had been unconscious for most of that anyways. Ever.

  It was overstimulating.

  "Are you alright?"

  Wide blue eyes met concerned green. Lilian's breath washed over his mouth, her lips mere inches from his own. She was so close that her pleasant, natural scent was invading his nose, addling his mind. He was beginning to feel light headed again. And his stomach was churning.

  Dear God! He really was going to die if this kept up!

  "Wha... Wha... Wha..." somehow, miraculously, Kevin found the strength of will to speak, even though his mind and body were very close to shutting down again. "What the hell are you doing!?"

  His shout startled Lilian enough that he was able to slip out from under her nude body and out of her grasp. He crawled backwards on hands and feet like some kind of crab, trying to put as much distance between him and this strange, naked girl as possible.

  "What do you mean?" Lilian tilted her head and blinked several times. "I was just checking
to see if you're alright."

  "That's not what I meant!" Kevin practically shrieked as he tried to keep his cool. It wasn't working too well, especially when his eyes found her perfectly rounded breasts again. He was beginning to feel sick. If this kept up, he might end up losing what was left of his lunch.

  Kevin jerked his head away so he wouldn't stare. A little too late for that, boy.

  "It's not?" Lilian tilted her head. "Then what were you talking about?"

  "Why are you naked!?"

  Lilian tilted her head the other way, an adorable look of confusion on her face. Don't throw up, Kevin. Don't throw up.

  "I don't have any clothes to wear." The way she said that made it sound like it should have been obvious.

  "What do you mean you don't have any clothes!?" Kevin's voice was very high pitched. "You can't just go walking around naked! You must have something you can put on!?" His voice was pleading by the end.

  "No," Lilian shook her head, "I lost my clothes a while ago. I lost them a few hours before you rescued me."

  Naturally, Kevin, in his panic, embarrassment and the slew of other emotions he was feeling but couldn't place, completely missed her words about him rescuing her.

  It wouldn't do if The Plot, or at least a subplot, was revealed to quickly. That's not how things work in a Shōnen manga.

  "Guh...." Kevin buried his face in his hands. "This cannot be happening," he mumbled. "There's no way there can be a naked girl in my room. This is just a dream. A really bad dream."

  Lilian frowned at Kevin's mumbling. Her frown increased as she looked down at her nude frame. After a few seconds of silently contemplating her own body, she looked back up at Kevin.

  "Does it bother you that I'm naked?" She sounded very disappointed. "Do you not find me appealing?"

  "That's not the point!" Kevin wished he could crawl into a hole and die. Or wake up from this nightmare, for this could be nothing less. An incredibly erotic nightmare, but a nightmare nonetheless.

  Rubbing his face with his hands in frustration, he tried to make his reasoning for her clear. "You shouldn't be walking around naked in front of others! It...―it isn't appropriate!"

  "But, you're my mate," Lilian pointed out, as if these words solved everything. "It's perfectly acceptable if you see me like this."

  "Mate?" Kevin blinked. What the hell did that mean? Was she talking about... surely she wasn't saying that he and her were...?

  He blushed, unable to think about the implications of her statement.

  Kevin was easily embarrassed like that.

  "Yes," Lilian gave him a truly beautiful smile. Kevin felt his face heating up just from looking at it. "You took care of me when I was injured. You treated me with kindness and compassion instead of scorn like some of the other human boys who have seen me like that did." She placed a hand against her bare breast. Kevin's eyes were invariably drawn to it. He hadn't thought his face could get any redder then it was now. He had been wrong, apparently. "You don't know how much your kindness meant to me. Of the warmth I felt when you treated me so tenderly and lovingly. I haven't been able to get it out of my mind."

  Kevin thought the girl was beautiful before, but when she began blushing, he thought he might actually die of moe. A girl with such a killer body should not be able to look so dang adorable.

  "Is it any wonder that I've fallen in love you?"

  For that single moment, Kevin's entire world came to a screeching halt. He stared at the girl with wide eyes. She did not just say what he thought she said.

  "I'm sorry, but did you just say that you're in love with me?"

  Surely she was going to say that she wasn't, that he had just been hearing things. Yes, he must have heard her wrong. That was it. He just had something crazy in his ears and had misheard what she said or misconstrued her words.

  Lilian tilted her head to the side, wondering if he had really just asked her that, then nodded. "Yes."

  Dammit.

  "You don't even know me!" Kevin very nearly shouted. Lilian jumped in surprise. "How could you possibly love me when we've never even met until just a few hours ago?"

  "What do you mean?" Lilian pressed a finger to her lips, her brows furrowed cutely. "Of course I love you."

  "You can't fall in love with someone you don't even know!"

  "Eh? Why not?" Lilian crossed her arms and pouted at him. "I've thought about this long and hard, you know." Yeah, because the little bit of time that she had known him was a really long time. Definitely long enough for her to make a decision like this. Yeah right. "I love you."

  Kevin felt a headache coming on. Rubbing his forehead, he tried to think about what he should do about this strange, beautiful girl who had, for some reason he simply couldn't fathom, decided she was in love with him. There had to be something he could say that would convince her she was not in love with him. Right?

  Good luck with that.

  "Look, you can't just fall in love with someone you only just met a few hours ago," he started, only to inexplicably stop after making the mistake of looking at her again. Almost immediately, blood began rushing to his face.

  He tried to look away, to look at anything other than the enchanting female, sitting on his carpet. It wouldn't do to find himself distracted by her beauty, or to pass out when he was trying to explain why she couldn't be in love with him. That would be bad. Really bad.

  It was while he was trying not to look at the femme in front of him that he noticed it again. The fury red appendage with the white tip that he had seen only a minute before had curved around Lilian's body and was now resting across her lap, hiding the treasure between her legs. His curiosity got the better of him.

  "What is that?"

  "Hmm?" Lilian tilted her head in curiosity. "What is what?"

  "That," Kevin pointed at the red... thing in her lap. He had seen it before, but it couldn't possibly be what he thought it was. No. That was just crazy. "What is that?"

  Lilian looked down at where he was pointing. "Oh! You mean my tail?"

  "Tail?" Kevin murmured. Well, it certainly looked like a tail. It was large and bushy and red and had a white tip. It looked like a larger version of one of the tails he had seen on that fox he rescued.

  Speaking of which, just where was that fox anyways?

  He's not very bright, this Kevin. Or maybe this is what they call denial?

  Lilian looked up and smiled. "Would you like to see it?"

  Before Kevin could tell her that, no, he did not want to see her tail (and boy was that a really bad pun), the girl was already moving.

  Pushing herself back onto her hands and knees, the red haired female slowly turned around, revealing her bare backside to Kevin.

  Kevin's eyes widened and his pupils dilated. Blood flowed into his cheeks and his breathing picked up as he found himself staring at more perfection. Starting from her slender shoulders, Kevin's eyes traveled down her frame, taking in the delicate curve of her back as it flowed into the small, shapely and perfectly formed rear end that would have made the likes of Eric salivate.

  Did everything about this girl have to be so dang sexy?

  As Kevin found himself trying to look away from the sight, his eyes finally found what they had been talking about. Her tail. Jutting out from her tail bone just above where her firm looking, peach shaped butt began was a furry red tail with a white tip. Really, it was almost impossible to miss. Just how he had missed it was beyond him.

  It's called shock. It's also called a Plot Device, but let's not get into that right now.

  "A tail," Kevin found himself muttering as Lilian (thankfully) turned back around and sat back down on her thighs. Not that it did much good because there was just as much to look at on her front as there was her backside, but Kevin did his best to ignore all that. "You have a tail."

  "And ears," Lilian said, smiling, "Don't forget about my ears."

  "Ears?" Kevin found himself blinking as he stared at her head and saw what she was talking about. S
ticking out of her head and parting her beautiful crimson tresses were two long, fury red animal ears with white tips. They were currently standing upright and perky on her head.

  How the heck had he missed those?

  Such is the power of a woman's innate sexiness. It possessed the ability to make men go blind to all but her body, with everything else relegated to the background. He would realize this, eventually.

  "Those are fox ears," Kevin, being the animal lover that he was, recognized the ears for what they were despite the fact that they were sitting on the head of a girl around his age for some reason he still couldn't fathom. Cosplay maybe? "And that's a fox tail."

  "Of course they are," Lilian nodded to his words. "I'm a Kitsune. It's only natural I would have fox ears and tails."

  "Kitsune?" Kevin blinked. He knew that term, vaguely, but he still knew it. "You mean those supernatural creatures from Japanese mythology?" Kevin tried to recall what he knew about them. "Those are fox's that can shape-shift into humans and generally cause a lot of mischief, right?" If this girl was a Kitsune, it probably didn't bode well for him.

  "I have no idea why people think we came from Japan." Lilian pouted, folding her arms under her bust which inevitably pushed up her breasts. Kevin gulped. "It's not like all Kitsune live in Japan. We're pretty much spread across the globe. My family is from Greece. Well," Lilian looked up in thought, "my mom actually came from England, but we've lived in Greece for as long as I can remember."

  "Is... ―is that so?" Kevin tried to wrap his mind around what he was being told. Needless to say, it wasn't easy. "So... You're a Kitsune?"

  Lilian nodded and smiled. "Yes."

  "A real life Kitsune?"

  "Of course silly," Lilian giggled. "What else would I be?"

  "Oh... okay," Kevin nodded...

  ...And then he passed out... again... for the second time that day.

  He wouldn't realize it until much later, or maybe he did and just didn't fully understand all the implications, but from that day onwards, his life would be forever changed.
