READ THIS!: Warning for this chapter, there is a rape scene in the opening of this chapter. It is necessary for the plot, and though it kills me to write it, having friends who have been through this horrible experience, the scene is necessary to understanding the basis for Halibel's character in this fic.
If you have been a victim of rape, and are suffering from the side effects of your attack, please contact the closest rape support center in your area. You are not alone, and nor should you have to deal with things alone. There are many like you, feeling the same way you do right now, willing to help. More than half of the rapes committed in the United states go un-reported. If you know of someone who has been violated in such a manner, please speak up, and offer them your support as best as you can.
I was nervous. So very nervous that my entire body was shaking. Aizen-sama had summoned me to his quarters, and I was unsure of what exactly he wanted. I'd only ever met him once, at my birth, when I was named the Tercera Espada and told of my duties. Since then, I hadn't seen much of him. He and the other two Shinigami were always having their secret meetings, mostly leaving us Espada to ourselves. I supposed they were consolidating their future plans before involving the ranks.
"Tia Halibel, my lovely Tercera Espada. Do you know why you have been summoned here, my dear?" Aizen's ominous voice echoed against the high ceilings of his personal suite. I shivered, keeping my eyes down on the floor as I knelt at his feet.
"No, Aizen-sama. I was not informed of your reasons," I said softly.
There was something extremely wrong lingering in the air. Something vile and terrible was about to happen, I just didn't know what it was. I heard my master rise and pad over to me quietly. A finger hooked under my chin and tilted it up so that I could meet cold, dark brown eyes. Aizen smiled that small fake smile at me and again, my gut trembled. What did he want?
"Release your sword, Tercera," he ordered smoothly.
I blinked at him in confusion, but daren't question my lord. With a whispered summons, I released the power of Tiburón, letting the power wash over me and transform me into my most powerful state. I stood before my master in my truest of forms, staring still at the floor beneath me, wondering what he was doing.
"That is quite a transformation, Tercera. I suppose I should not be surprised. You are one of my strongest Espada," Aizen said. His tone gave me no idea of what was going on in his mind. Of course, it never did.
"It is you who gave me this power, Aizen-sama. I am forever indebted to you for doing so," I murmured, bowing ever-so-lowly in respect.
A dark chuckle rang out in the room, and I cringed internally. Though Aizen had never been anything but a savior to me in the past, there was always something dark and frightening about him that I sensed from the very beginning. He may have saved me from my nomadic, boring life in the desert, but his power level had always made me squirm. He could destroy me just as easily as he blinked, and that being so had always made me wary of him.
"Yes, Tercera. You, as you are now, are my creation," he began. "I made you, and therefore you are mine."
A hand clasped my chin in a strong grip, jerking my face up to meet my master's deviant gaze. He smiled that god-awful smile again.
"You have such a beautiful face underneath that mask of yours,"Aizen's voice purred. My heart lurched in my chest as an impossible amount of spiritual pressure descended upon me.
"A-Aizen-sama!"
My body was flattened against the floor, my lungs working frantically as I gasped for breath. A hand reached out and gripped the back of my head hard, smashing it into the floor as its partner gripped my hip and pulled it up.
"My beautiful creation," my master purred again, tearing at what little bit of clothing I had on and pressing his clothed desire against my bare rear. "There is something I need from you now."
My heart stammered in my chest, and I struggled under him. I'd never imagined he'd want something like this. He called himself God…gods were above such mortal desires, no? I expected this out of some of the male arrancar, even some of the Espada…but never from Aizen-sama.
"No!"
"Yes, Tercera…you were created of my power and you shall do as I command!" Aizen snarled into my ear.
My face was pushed into the cold tile again as the reiatsu's strength increased. I couldn't even move as hands pulled up my hips, propped me up on my knees, and bared me to my master in the most humiliatingly subservient manner. My only warning was a dark laugh before pain blazed in my virgin entrance. Tears burst from my eyes as my creator roughly thrust in and out of me. It hurt so badly…I could feel the blood trickling down the backs of my thighs.
"Mmm, you're so tight, Tercera-chan. Have you never been had before?" Aizen purred into my ear.
"Please stop!"
He pushed into me hard, slamming into my body in painful jabs that caused tears to flow out of my eyes unbidden.
"You are nothing, Tercera! This power of yours that I gave you can be taken just as easily!" he growled. "You are worthless."
I buried my face into the ground in shame, not answering him as he defiled me in the worst way. No, I had never been taken before..but I was sure it wasn't supposed to feel like that. My nails dug into the shiny tile floor, and I tried my hardest to pretend I was anywhere but where I was. It was a few minutes before I felt Aizen tense up and flood me with his seed. Shivering in disgust, I remained silent until he had gone.
"We'll be doing this again, Tercera. You do so make for a perfect whore."
With those words, he left me, lying flat in a pile of my own blood and his essence. My whole body was shivering. I was so disgusted, with myself, with him. I felt so stupid. I should have known the power would not have come without a price. I should have known, but I was too blind to see. And, now I was nothing but a whore for the man who'd created me. A shameful, disgusting thing who's only use was for the pleasure of a monster.
"And, that was the first time," I said as I came out of the flashback. The raven haired woman across from me nodded and jotted down a few notes before smiling comfortingly at me.
"Oh, Halibel-chan," I heard a sweet voice whimper from next to me. I turned to see Hime's wide, horrified eyes wet with shimmering tears.
'She must be so disgusted,' I thought in shame. But, those big grey eyes overflowed with tears. Quite suddenly I was wrapped up in trembling arms as my little sister cried into my shoulder.
"Halibel-san, how are you feeling right now?" Captain Unohana asked softly. I looked at her, gently running my fingers through Hime's hair as I tried to comfort her.
"I-I feel like I felt then," I said. She nodded.
"And how is that?"
"Dirty, worthless…weak, powerless, scared," I said. I felt tears burn under my lids. The girl crying on my shoulder sat up abruptly and fixed me with a stern stare.
"Never talk about yourself like that, Halibel-san!" Hime ordered. "You're not worthless! You're beautiful and strong and smart! You're my big sister, and I will not have you speak of yourself that way!"
I blinked at her in confusion, unable to say anything back after her outburst.
"Orihime-chan, tell me what you are thinking," Unohana-san said softly.
Big grey eyes shifted to her.
"I am so angry," she growled, pouting. "I hate hearing her talk about herself that way. Aizen was a monster. He hurt a lot of nice people, and ruined some of them to the point that they couldn't be saved."
I felt my heart swell. She wasn't angry with me. She wasn't disgusted or hateful. She thought I could be saved. She turned to me with wide, sincere eyes, grasping my hands warmly and squeezing comfortingly.
"But, he's dead now Halibel-san. He can't hurt you anymore, not if you don't let him. And, even if he were still alive…I would never let him touch you again!" she said firmly. I could say nothing in return, nothing to express my gratitude towards the little angel of a guardian that had changed my life so much. Unohana smiled at us both as she flipped her notepad closed.
"I think we have made a lot of progress here today, Halibel-san," she said softly, a warm motherly comfort settling in her dark blue eyes. "We can stop here for today."
I nodded, trying to keep from crying any more than I already had. We left about five minutes later, and Hime walked me to Kisuke's shop from there.
"Are you sure you don't want me to say? I can reschedule," she said worriedly. I smiled at her and shook my head.
"No, Hime-chan. Your education is important. Go do your group project, and I will see you again when you're finished," I said.
She smiled, hugged me, and went on her way. I made my way into the shop quietly, feeling the emotions I was stifling working their way past my barriers. I didn't want to cry anymore. The gods only know how much I cried for that miserable bastard who called himself my master, and I really didn't want to waste any more of my energy on him. I jumped, letting out a terrified cry when arms snaked themselves around my waist to pull me against a warm, firm body.
"Shh, Hali-chan. It's just me," Kisuke's warm voice murmured gently, gentle hands rubbing circles on my belly in comfort. I trembled as I turned in his arms, trying to remember that I had no reason to fear this man.
"You're safe here, Halibel," he continued in that soft, hypnotic voice of his. "No one is going to hurt you here."
His hands kneaded my back softly, warm grey eyes looked down at me tenderly. I stared into him silently for a few moments before I fisted my hands in his green kimono and buried my face into his chest. The tears tore from my eyes, and I was suddenly aware of the sound of sobbing. It was a few seconds before I realized that horrible, broken sound was coming from me. I felt Kisuke's cheek fall against the top of my head.
"I'm sorry," I whimpered. His arms merely held me tighter. His soft lips nuzzled my temple, and I cried harder.
"Don't be sorry, Halibel. You need this," he said, kissing the corners of my eyes gently. "Cry until you pass out…I will still be here when you wake up."
His lips moved gently over every inch of my face, thumbs wiping fresh tears dutifully as I sobbed. Strangely enough, I didn't want him to move away. I didn't want him to stop kissing me. It made me feel wanted, needed, like I was worth something. And, he was so gentle, so sweet and caring, the tremble in my body ceased.
'He knows why, and he still wants me. Why are you so good to me, Kisuke? I am nothing.'
"You are everything," he murmured softly, as if he'd heard my thoughts, and kissed my nose. He held me until the very last sob wracked my body, and soon I felt myself drifting off to sleep. I was safe here, with this man who cared for me so much.
**Grimmjaw's POV**
That mornin' I woke up between Uryuu's bare legs, his mornin' wood pokin' me "hello" in my belly. My eyes fluttered open ta look down on my peacefully sleepin' mate. Well, almost mate. We still had to consummate the bond, but I was willin' ta wait for him ta be ready for that. He was sprawled on his back, milky thighs spread on either side of my hips, arms up on the side of his head, and flat, white belly on full display for me to see. I smirked, leanin' down ta nip at his pale skin, nuzzlin' his lightly muscular abdomen and tonguin' his bellybutton gently.
"Mmmm…Grimm.." he murmured in his sleep. I smirked and lapped at his navel sensually, quite enjoyin' the adorable lil' wiggle and moan I got from the action.
"Uryuu-chan," I purred against his skin. He squirmed again, lashes flutterin' open to reveal sleepy blue eyes. "There ya are. Mornin', babe."
A delicate flush decorated the bridge of his nose and I couldn't help but snicker. After all we did last night, he was still bashful. How fuckin' cute is that?
"Grimm," he said in a soft, breathy tone. He pulled me up ta his face and kissed me gently on the mouth. I frowned when he abruptly pulled away.
"What's wrong?" I asked. He groaned sleepily, turnin' his face away.
"Mm…I have morning breath," he whined. I scoffed and pulled his poutin' lips to mine, forcin' my tongue inta his mouth.
"Mmm!" he moaned softly, respondin' ta me jus' the way I wanted.
I pulled away from his mouth, then moved down his neck, chest, and belly. I lapped and laved at his cute lil' bellybutton until he was moanin' and undulatin' in my grip. Thumbin' the grooves of his sharp hipbones, I kissed my way up the shaft of his hard dick, tonguin' the head slowly. He whined and thrust his hips inta my mouth. I moved my mouth down, suckin' one'a his taught balls inta my mouth and rollin' my tongue around it.
"Mmnn! Grimmjaw!" he gasped softly. My name sounded too good comin' from those pantin' lips. His big blue eyes looked down at me with desperate hunger. I smiled up at him, a real smile, not my usual badass grin. He smiled back.
"Can I try somethin', Uryuu-chan?" I asked, pushin' his legs further apart and slipped my hands under the small of his back to tilt his hips up slightly.
"Mmm, what?" he asked curiously. I smirked at him.
"Trust me," I murmured, slippin' my hands down to his firm lil' rear.
Pryin' his cheeks apart, I let my tongue wander down his taint and over his untouched hole. He went completely stiff, cryin' out and flushin' bright red in embarrassment. I nearly laughed at the indignant, wide-eyed look in his eyes. I didn't stop though. I lapped at his pink lil' hole tenderly, runnin' my tongue over the tense muscles. He squirmed and pushed at my head, lookin' completely bashful. Lil' cutie!
"Grimm, no! Don't lick there!" he cried out. I smiled, kissin' his the pink pucker softly and massagin' it with my thumbs.
"Why not?" I asked playfully. He frowned, squirmin' more as I continued the gentle massage on his entrance.
"Grimm…that's dirty," he said softly, blushin' redder. I chuckled and pressed my tongue against the relaxin' muscle a lil' more forcefully. It slipped inside the hot orifice, slidin' against the silken walls and makin' Uryuu wail in pleasure.
"Seems pretty clean ta me, baby," I said with a smirk. I licked my lips. "Tastes fuckin' delicious."
He blushed that pretty blush of his again, but relaxed in my grip. He even leaned up on his elbows ta see more clearly. I swiped my tongue around his qiverin' hole again, pushin' inside, swirlin' along the walls. He was so hot and tight inside, and his sexy lil' cries of pleasure poured from his mouth loudly.
"Wh-why does that feel so good?" he asked, pantin' heavily and grindin' his sexy ass down against my mouth. I smiled, wigglin' my tongue inside'a him and kissin' at the wet pucker.
"Cus' I'm good at it, Uryuu-chan, that's why," I answered. He looked confused. I devoured him again, makin' him writhe and moan.
"B-b-but you're frenching my asshole," he breathed, pantin' even harder. I growled.
"Yer sexy whey ya cuss, baby," I purred.
He didn't have the sense left to answer me, he jus' hissed and arched in pleasure as I worked him ta the best of my capability. I looked up to where his cock was droolin' precum, and reached up ta pump it in time with the jabs of my tongue inta his body. He twisted and moaned, thrustin' his hips against my face until finally, I felt those silky muscles clamp down around my tongue. My cock jolted in jealousy of the other appendage, those hot walls collapsed down and suddenly Uryuu was cumming.
"Ahh! Grimmjaw!" he cried.
I merely watched in awe at the beauty of my climaxin' mate. Streams of hot cum shot up over Uryuu's chest and belly as his face contorted in pleasure. He laid there pantin' for a few minutes in silence. I leaned up to kiss'im on those flushed lips of his after he'd calmed down a little. He participated for a lil' before remeberin' where my mouth had jus' been.
"Ugch! Grimm, no ass to mouth!" he snapped irately. I smirked at him, stealin' another kiss and laughin'.
"S'your ass, baby-boy…ya'll get over that lil' pet-peeve soon enough."
"Highly unlikely," he said. Then his eyes shot downwards, ta where my still hard dick was beggin' for attention.
"You didn't.."
"S'okay. Ya don't have ta do anything ya ain't comfortable with," he just frowned at me and pushed me down on my back. I took in a sharp breath when he straddled himself over my hips. He kissed the underside of my chin softly.
"Can I try something now?"
I looked up at him curiously, wonderin' what it was he wanted. But, he was my mate, and in the end I would allow him nearly anythin'.
"Whateva ya want."
"Perfect."
**Kira's POV**
"I was actually one of the first arrancar that Aizen created," Stark explained to Unohana-taicho. She nodded.
"He said from the beginning that I was much more powerful than he'd expected, but it wasn't until later that the rest of the Espada and lower ranks were made.
"I was meant to be Primera from the beginning, but at first I was not as receptive to Aizen's rule as he'd have liked," he explained. A frown darkened his handsome features, a slight pain entering usually unreadable grey eyes.
"I was difficult. The power he'd bestowed upon me blew up my ego to a point that I acted somewhat like these human teenagers act. I was Aizen's most rebellious 'child', contrary to the popular belief that Grimmjaw gave him the most trouble. The things I did make Grimmjaw's indiscretions look like playtime."
Unohana took some notes before looking back up at him.
"And what things were those, Stark-san?"
He smirked, some of the cockiness I'd never seen coming through in his expression.
"Aizen sent me out to find a clan of supposed Vasto Lorde," he began. "I found them alright. Found them and destroyed them all, just because I could."
I felt my eyes widen at his revelation. He seemed so proud. I'd never seen this side of him.
"What was your thought process behind it?" Unohana asked.
"I wanted to show Aizen that I wasn't just a pawn he could use to his wishes. I was the strongest Espada he had, and I wouldn't be taken lightly," he said. He frowned again.
"But, I was wrong. I was his pawn. I was created only for his use, and he showed me that very clearly," he said. My heart twisted in my chest. I didn't like hearing him talk about himself that way. I hated the idea of what Aizen might have done to him. I almost didn't want to know, but I supposed I was about to find out.
"How did he show you this?" Unohana prodded, writing notes down on her pad diligently as Stark sought the words to explain.
He closed his eyes and set his face into that lazy, slack look it had donned for most of our first weeks together. My heart twisted again. If he was throwing up that mask, what he had to say must have been extremely hard to live through. Without thinking my hand shot out to cover his, and squeezed his fingers in comfort. He didn't open his eyes, but his hand did turn upwards to link with my fingers.
"He summoned me to his quarters, where Tousen and Ichimaru were also waiting. The moment I arrived, he let loose his reiatsu, causing me to fall to the floor and gasp for air."
He paused for a moment, taking a deep breath, and squeezing my fingers before he started speaking again.
"Aizen threw me over his shoulder like I was a rag doll, and brought me into a room where he had Lilinette tied to a chair. They let some of the lower level arrancar into the room. Hollow who really disliked me, and her for being as high in the ranks as we were. Aizen and his two followers left her to those beasts."
I could feel the tears pooling in the corners of my eyes already. What had they done to Lilinette-chan?
"I was kido sealed to the wall and forced to watch them torture her."
His voice broke a little, and his breathing was stammered. I shifted closer to him on the couch, running my fingers over his palm to comfort him. His eyes opened, and for once they didn't have that dead, half-lidded look. The look of utter pain and sorrow that shined in his slate grey eyes made my heart clench and my tears fall.
"You don't have to say anything else if you can not continue," Unohana-taicho said softly.
He looked down at me and frowned, his big hands coming up to wipe my tears away. I blushed a little, embarrassed that he was being so affectionate in front of Unohana-taicho, but quickly got over it. Stark needed me, so I let him pull me to him and tuck my head against his shoulder.
"Don't cry, Kira-chan. It's all over and done with. That was the first, and last time Aizen ever punished me. I have always been good at adapting to my surroundings. I never wanted to see Lilinette in such pain ever again. So, I adopted that sleepy, lazy persona…if only because the sleep gave me escape from the reality of my life. It helped me stay out of trouble, and ultimately protect the only person who meant anything to me," he explained.
His fingers carded through my hair as I continued to cry the tears he refused to shed. How could Aizen allow such a thing to happen? Lilinette was just a child, a little girl! I couldn't even imagine what those Hollow had done to her in her vulnerable form. How much of a monster was Aizen? I almost didn't want to know.
"We have made a significant breakthrough today, Stark-san. We may leave it here for now. Admitting that your sleep is a defense mechanism out loud was a good step forward in moving past your experience with Aizen. I will go now, please take care of Kira-kun," Unohana said, flipping her pad closed and bowing before she walked out of the door.
Stark didn't say anything for a while. He just held me until I stopped crying. Finally, when my tears stopped flowing, I tilted my head up to see him staring down at me. With little to no thought behind it, I leaned up to seal our lips together. I kissed him slowly, letting my lips express everything I was feeling to him. His arms pulled me into his lap as he responded. Big hands ran up and down my back, as if soothing me. His warm mouth slanted over mine, claimed mine almost roughly. We broke apart much later, both breathless and panting.
"Izuru," he whispered softly, pressing his mouth to mine in a chaste kiss before cuddling me against his chest. "Let's just stay like this for a little while."
I kissed the skin just under his jaw, and relaxed in his embrace.
"As long as you want," I murmured back.
**Uryuu's POV**
I sat straddled over Grimm's hips, my flaccid penis settled gently against his hot, firm cock. I could feel my body heating up all over again. God, if I'd known it'd feel this good, I'd have let him have me so much sooner. He was staring up at me with those brilliant blue eyes of his, curious as to what I wanted to do. But, he was patient, something I was learning he was quite capable of. I leaned forward and kissed him softly, enjoying the way he parted his mouth to accommodate my questing tongue.
"Grimmjaw," I murmured, moaning at the feel of his calloused hands massaging my hips. He tilted his head to the side in question.
"What is it, babe?"
"Later…will you tell me about your life in Las Noches?"
He frowned slightly and growled.
"Why would ya wanna know about that?" he grumbled. I smiled down at him, cupping his face in my hands and nuzzling our noses together affectionately.
"Because I want to know everything about you, my mate," I said. His eyes lit up at the sound of that word, his lips kissing mine briefly.
"Fine…if that's what ya want."
"It is, later," I said, leaning down to kiss him again. A little more thoroughly this time. "But, for now…this is what I want."
I swiveled my hips against his, feeling my member start to swell in interest as his precum slithered down the shaft. His hands assisted me in my undulating movements, kneading gently at my hips and ass, fingers prodding at the sensitive opening there. He didn't try to penetrate, just massaged the fluttering muscles in a way that had me moaning into his mouth enthusiastically.
I soon pulled back from our lip lock, looking down at our leaking erections, and encircling them with a firm hand. Grimmjaw growled that sexy rumble of his, arching up into my touch and thrusting himself against me. It felt so good, his swollen length pushing against mine. I continued the circling of my hips, speeding up as my body demanded more. Grimmjaw pulled me down into a fierce kiss. I reached behind me as our tongues tangled, lodging his hot erection in the cleft of my ass and grinding down against it.
"Shit! Uryuu!" he gasped, thrusting up against me, the head of his cock nudging my hole delicately on every pass.
I almost wanted to push down onto it, feel him inside, filling me, claiming me. The mark on my neck throbbed at the thought, but I knew I wasn't ready for that quite yet. I used my hand to palm his cock into the grinding of my ass while simultaneously pumping my own towards sweet release. It wasn't long before I felt the warm splash of his seed against my lower back. The feel of it dripping down my crack, the wish that he'd finished inside instead, set me off again like a firecracker.
I collapsed onto his chest, kissing any bit of skin my lips came into contact with as I tried to catch my breath. Grimmjaw's hands moved up and down my back in a calming gesture. When I was finally able to, I lifted myself up on my arms to kiss him again. I really liked this, what we had together. I liked it and I didn't want it to end. I wondered, if maybe there was a way to convince him to stay here with me, instead of going back to Seretei.
"Shit, Uryuu-chan! Yer a lil' wildcat when no one's 'round, aren't ya!" my, well I suppose I could call him my boyfriend, said with a smirk. I just snuggled into his chest.
"In a little while we can get up and bathe, then maybe train a bit. But later, I want to hear about your life," I said. "Everything you remember, and I'll tell you about mine."
He grunted in response, but somehow, I knew he would not refuse me.
a/n: Sorry this took so long! I was busy as hell with school these last few weeks, and it's been killing me. Plus, I was banned from for signing up when I was still underage. I did that five years ago, under a different name. I have been on as an adult for more than 3yrs and it just really killed my inspiration that all of my hard work to gain readers on that site was for nothing. Hopefully most of them have found me here, but I'm not even sure anyone is still reading this lol. I take so long to update and all.
Anywho, review please! Let me know you're still there, and that I should still post here.
