#beast witch

[thelove-witch]

Inosuke genuinely feels it, the feeling of utter calm, absolute peace. the gentle sunlight barely sneaks into the room as sun is only rising, and birds gently start to sing in the background.

The warmth of a bed and a loving family. It feels like home.

Inosuke belongs here.

he lifts one of his hands, taking it to rest on his love witch's hair. he lowly hums, and he barely moves his head as he nods.

this is perfect. this is home. Inosuke does not fear going back to sleep, because no one can ever take this away from him.

----------------------------

Meanwhile...

After having walked for who knows how long, her tired eyes finally distinguish her former home: the butterfly mansion. The daze in which she was put through comes to an end as she bumps into someone.

When she looks up, she meets with gentle crimson orbs, belonging to the equally gentle Tanjiro Kamado.

"Aoi-san! Long time no see!" But his expression changes as he perceives the bags underneath his eyes, the bruises and cuts on her legs plus the torn fabric over the skirt of her dress. Even blood was visible.

Whatever happened to her?

Taking her by the shoulders, Tanjiro eyes Aoi concerned, "What happened? Are you hurt? What happened to Inosuke? Aoi san, please answer me!"

"What's going on here?"

The redhead turns at the voice that suddenly spoke up. A woman with curly brown hair and sunkissed skin is watching the scene in confusion, walking towards the two of them releasing her hand from the katana sheathed on her hip.

"Cherry!"

"Aoi?" She blinks, as if not believing her eyes. The girl is in such a bad shape that it's scary.

"Aoi, what happened? Is she okay?"

"I-In... I..." She starts to stutter in a low voice as if she doesn't have any energy left.

Out of the weakness, said girl's leg give up on her, almost making her fall; if it wasn't for both of them, she would have added another bruise to the collection.

"Hang in there, Aoi." Cherry says as she wraps an arm around her waist. "We should take her to Shinobu, Tanjiro. She's hurt and obviously exhausted."

"Right."

Tanjiro scoops the injured girl up and, the brunette following behind, they both get her to the butterfly mansion, where Sumi, Kiyo and Naho attend her wounds as they wait for the Insect Hashira to come back.

"What could've happened to her?" Cherry and Tanjiro wait outside the room, leaning against the doorframe.

"I'm not sure, but Aoi came all this way on her own."

"Do you think it has something to do with Inosuke?"

He hoped it didn't.

------------------------------

— inosuke hashibira.

Alexandra kisses the warm muscle of her lover under her and promptly falls asleep, not dreaming of anything but a restful darkness. Her lithe hand holds onto the tiny hand of her and Inosuke's creation.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

At the Butterfly Mansion

" And she sent m-me away! I felt like I couldn't even control myself!" Aoi cries before she wipes her tears on her apron. " It felt like a blood demon art!"

Gasps ring though the persons surrounding her. Shinobu is wide eyed as one of her girls tells her the story.

A demoness? Having a child and manipulating a high member member of the Demon Corps into caring for it. She had never heard of it but things have been stranger.

Tanjiro was the first to speak. " Inosuke would never! He is a demon slayer just like the rest of us!" Cherry was at his side and calmed him down with a hand on his shoulder.

" We need to find it and do something! Before something happens to him! He's in a whole demon's nest! And we need to protect the rest of the corps! What if they decide to go after a hashira and do the same?" Aoi cries out before beginning to sob again.

Zenitsu was leaning on the edge of the door.

" Um...I'm afraid of demons the same as anyone else but I don't think she's a demon."

" WHAT?"

Aoi marches right up to the yellow haired boy and gives him a prompt slap.

Another set of gasps ring out. Cherry then quickly moves to hold Aoi back from Zenitsu. " How dare you! You don't know what I saw! I saw the love of my life get ripped away from me! She took him from me! That demoness WITCH manipulated him!" The pigtailed girl screams at him before fatigue gets the rest of her and she collapses.

Shinobu moves to give her a light sedative just so she can sleep off the heartache.

" We'll have to do some reconnaissance. See what we are up against before we attack. If it is a nest of demons pretending to be humans or luring humans, they might try to lure us as well." Shinobu speaks.

Zenitsu is on the verge of tears at the slap. Tanjiro rubs his shoulder in comfort. " She isn't a demon Tanjiro!" He tells him. "She's like a majo! A sorceress!" He tries to explain like from children's fairy tales.

Tanjiro gives him a sad look before nodding. " I don't know what to believe Zenitsu, but Shinobu is right. We will need to investigate before we get Inosuke back. He could be in terrible danger!"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Back at the Witch's cottage

Inosuke wakes up to an empty arm and his little boy's foot right in his face. He feels a sense of joy in seeing his little one's feet so black with dirt. It's how he lived as a child.

A smell breaks his concentration.

Alexandra is in the kitchen making a porridge of rice along with runny eggs and some braised salmon from Aoba's first catches. She is deep in concentration over her caudon and is bind to the tall King of the Mountain behind her.

[theformerwitch]

At the sight of the sleeping child, Inosuke couldn't help but to feel a wave of emotions washing over him.

The child was still sleeping when Alexandra took him into her arms. He looked so peaceful, so far away in the land of dreaming.

It was so obvious the way Inosuke's gaze was fixed on the boy. How it didn't move from there. How a feeling resembling to a tightening, drowning feeling was starting to creep its way up to his chest.

"You can hold him if you'd like..." Alexandra's suggestion resounds in his ears. Before he can say no, protect himself from this overwhelming sensation, the child is resting soundly in his arms.

Inosuke's breath hitches in his throat when Aoba, his little mini me, smiles in his sleep and snuggles into his chest.

"I'm a..." He starts, but his words are stuck in his throat, which is slowly becoming tight.

"Yes, Inosuke..." He can't pay any mind to Alexandra resting her hand on his arm, squeezing it gently, but her words reach to him, "...He's your son. Our son."

Green irises become blurry with his heart's content: a heart that has suffered every single day since that night, wishing that he could go back to the witch that had been, undoubtedly, love at first sight. Love at first fuck, if you may.

But, in the end, it was love. To him, it was. And there was nothing that could compare itself to that —not even to Aoi who, heartbroken, stared at the scene before her. A sight that she refused to believe, a sight that she wished she was part of, instead of that damned witch that had stolen her man.

"Ino..." When said man, meets her gaze with humid, deeply moved green orbs, she is obligated to confront the fact that, the man before her, is someone she can't have.

A fact that she would refuse and deny with every single fiber of her being, and would do anything to make it cease to exist. Because she can't accept the fact that Inosuke is not, and will never be hers.

— inosuke hashibira.

Alexandra continued to look over Inosuke.

The love witch gently cradled his jaw with her left hand as the right one rested on his bicep. She gently encouraged him to sit down on the small plush rocking chair with the little boy in his arms.

" I'll be right back...my love. I'm never leaving you again." The witch whispers in his ear. She presses a tender and caste kiss to his cheek.

Leaving him there, she strides towards Aoi. The girl is now defensive as tears run down her face. " Stay back! Stay back you...you fucking witch!"

"Now there's no need for that..."

" Yes there is!"

Alexandra is struck silent as her arms fold and she rests her cheek on a hand. Almost as if to hear her out.

" Inosuke is mine! He's my boyfriend! Has been for two whole years now! We were supposed to get married." The pigtailed girl is shaking in anger.

" I-I'm even pregnant!" At this, Inosuke lifts his head up from his actual child in front of him.

" What?"

" Yeah! I'm knocked up Ino! You have to stay with me!"

The raven haired love witch gently smiled.

" No you're not."

" Yes I am! How would you know!?"

The witch beckons her to look at the statue by the door. It is of a maternal figure with a large round stomach and heavy breasts. A single jewel is on her belly. " I use her to diagnose the local woman with child. That jewel glows when a pregnancy is around here. It's how I found out I was pregnant several hours after Inosuke left."

" Well...Inosuke told me you cheated on him with Zenitzu! How do we know that bastard isn't his?!"

At this, Alexandra began to laugh loudly. " Silly girl. I never laid with Zenitsu. I merely used him to get information on demons, the demon corps and more. I made him believe I liked him."

A long plant tendril then wrapped around Aoi and her neck.

" You can call me whatever you want. But you do not talk about my son like that. Ever again. "

Removing a cow tongue from her icebox, the witch stabs it with a nail before throwing it into the fire.

" Mine, my son's..." With softened eyes, she looks over at Inosuke. " And my lover's name will never be on your tongue."

With a flash of magick, the Aoi fell into a trance.

One last thing. A kiss to her forehead. " May you find another love."

Baneful she could be, at her core she still willed love.

She let her go and the girl immediately began to run out of her small cottage.

She then turns to Inosuke. " My love?"

need some advice

I had an encounter with a spirit quite recently (an albino/white viszla or something with eyes my mind couldn't process) and I want to try and reach out to contact it since it hasn't really left me alone. when I met it for the first I was dozing off and I felt it standing on my chest - it was so corporeal I could feel it's fur under my hands and could feel it's breath - but when I switched on the light it vanished. it gave me a really warm, safe and calm feeling - any advice for trying to contact it??

[theformerwitch]

Inosuke watched as she left. His heart still throbbed, but he was a tough king of the mountain. A slayer. He couldn't just be weak around a woman.

Not even if that woman has him going mad.

Inosuke glared at her back as he followed behind her, until she came to a stop.

Arms crossed over his bare chest, the boar king awaits for the love witch's explanation; even if he thinks it's pointless, the woman in front of him made him want to stay, and he couldn't ignore his instinct.

-- inosuke hashibira.

Alexandra looks over her shoulder to see the Boar King to her side but she could still feel his gaze right though her.

She takes a jar of dried forget-me-nots and pours them into the cauldron.

A black mirror right behind the pot steams over and starts to morph into an image. She touches the mirror and it turns into an image of her, pregnant.

" This mirror is used to see memories. In that memory, I'm 4 months along with Aoba."

The image warps again and suddenly it is her with a newborn. She is smiling and bouncing the baby boy, who is swaddled in pelts.

The third image is now of a little boy with his own pelts tied around his neck trying to wobble around.

The love witch is looking at the mirror with a hand on her chest and mess around them before she starts to clean with pink tendrils.

Alexandra then waves away the immagine with two hands.

" There. Do you believe he is your son now?" She asks as she motions for him to follow him. She's not even touching him anymore.

" Follow me."

She brings him to Aoba again. The little boy is peacefully asleep, the wooden boar still tucked under his arm.

[thelove-witch]

"I-Inosuke... I found Inosuke...!"

Cherry's voice rings across the room all of the sudden as she finally arrives to the Butterfly Mansion, agitated from the running and her knee scraped with blood as she fell on her way back.

Everyone turns to her, and Tanjiro is the first to run to her aid, "Cherry! Are you alright? Your knee! You're hurt!" His arm wraps around her, but she reassures him by sending him a weak smile.

"I'm alright... j-just tired,"

The smile is quickly dropped as she turns to the Insect Hashira, walking towards her with the help of the redhead as she limps just a little. The three caterpillars tend to her wound quickly, and she is brought some water to drink.

"Shinobu-san..." She softly huffs after a emptying her cup, "I think Zenitsu was right."

"SEE? I TOLD YOU! NO ONE BELIEVED ME! BUT CHERRY-CHAN DID, CHERRY-CHAN!!!"

"Oof!"

"Zenitsu!" Tanjiro tries to pull him away from her as the blonde embraces her tight while crying; while these two fight, the brunette's gaze is back on the hashira.

"Shinobu-san," She calls again, and the room falls silent. Said woman looks back at her, with intrigue and concern.

"Inosuke is located to the South, and he seemed to be fine. But he's not alone."

"What do you mean he's not alone?"

"There is a woman. And a child. They don't seem to be demons, I couldn't pick any hint of that. However, according to Aoi and Zenitsu, I do think this woman could be using a spell on him."

"Cherry, it's Inosuke you're talking about! He should have known by now!"

"Maybe." She retorts, "But what if this spell is stronger?"

"She's right."

No one expected another voice to kick in. Everyone turns to the pig-tailed girl who walks into the room, bandages adorning her legs and some bruises which are healing over her skin.

"She used a spell on me too. I walked for days, my legs hurt, my feet bled!" Tears fall down her cheeks, making her voice break, "Do you know what it feels like to not be able to stop walking? To cry out in pain, feeling your legs about to fall off your body?! And the worst is she took my Inosuke away from me!"

"We will get him back." It is Tanjiro's determinated voice that makes her stop, her eyes widening and taking her aback. Tears keep on falling, but this time they behold hope.

"Yeah, save him no matter what." Cherry retorts, making Aoi meet her brown gaze. She smiles at her, trying to be reassuring, "I promise— huh?"

Aoi's fists are clenched on each side of her body. A glare adorns her face, and she's more decided than ever.

"I wanna go." She says, "I'm going to go and none of you can do anything to make me stay. Not even you, Shinobu-sama."

The fire in her eyes is something that resembles both rage and love. A broken heart can never be stopped, and she knows it well. Tanjiro and Cherry (and also on behalf of Zenitsu) promise to protect her, and to bring both her and their boar friend home safely.

-------------------

Inosuke sits at the table and eats breakfast silently as his sight eventually drags to Aoba, his little boy, who's talking about the animal he hunt the other day.

"....And it was so big!!! Right mama, right?"

Alexandra nods, giggling softly at his cuteness.

"Papa, I promise I'm going to bring a bigger one today! You will never beat me, you'll see!"

Finishing his breakfast, the little boy dashes off the house with his little weapon on his hand, ready to hunt a big animal to bring for dinner.

"Is the kid gonna be alright?" Inosuke's emerald gaze trails to Alexandra, who seems not worried at all about him.

"Of course, my love! Aoba's hunt since he could first walk, he'll be alright— Inosuke?"

The big, beefy man stands up all of the sudden, making the love witch look at him taken aback. He doesn't hesitate to wipe the plates off the table, making them break as they clash with the floor.

Suddenly, Inosuke lifts the witch and throws her on the table, setting himself in between her legs. An evil smirk appears on his features, as he tears the dress off her. The underwear won't be an obstacle, since Inosuke easily rips it off as well, meeting a rather lovely sight that makes his stomach growl and his mouth drool.

"Now this is a damn good breakfast..." He growls, his eyes glowing with a primal tint. The boar king kneels in front of her and, grabbing her thighs in a squeezing grip, he dips his head right into her pussy, devouring her as if he was a starved man, feral as if this was his last meal.

— inosuke hashibira.

The love witch felt breathless as she suddenly looked up at the smooth tatami of her ceiling. The cool morning air pebbled her nipples and broke her skin out in goosebumps. The dress she wore was light and airy but not to this extent. Setting her palms on the table, she lifted herself up slightly to see the top of Inosuke's head.

" Ino-ah~" Immediately one of her hands moved to tangle in his hair. The king of the mountain was merceless with his tongue. Her bones absolutely turned to jelly as she fell back onto the wooden table. It had been so long since she had been touched.

So many a night her own fingers and glassware would have to do with a cry of his name escaping her lips when she climaxed. The sensation of having her puffy nerve between his plush lips was enough to make her drip essence. Her lithe fingers gently persuaded his glistening face upwards for a surprisingly gentle kiss before he pushed her back down and pressed his face into her cunt again. Her head fell back again as he eyes nearly rolled back.

A gasp escaped her as her eyes caught a glimpse of a girl in pigtails in her door frame. Sitting up, she slams the door shut with a pulse of energy. Inosuke stands up while licking his lips.

" You feel that too?" He asks as he wraps his arms around his naked love witch. Alexandra produces a silk wrapping around herself, making the King of the Mountain groan as he can no longer feast.

" I'm sorry Ino." She apologizes with a peck to his cheek as she's looking towards the front door and facing away from him.

" Hm, whoever's bothering us is gonna have to pay." Inosuke nearly growls as he holds onto her clothes hips.

The door suddenly opens with a slam. It's Aoi. A great amount of negative energy surrounds her before she launches a short dagger at the witch. Inosuke instantly catches it by the handle. " That was slow as fuck." He comments.

Aoi yelps in frustration. " And what if it's me? Huh, Inosuke? I thought you loved me!" The boar man gives her a confused look.

Alexandra looks over to see figures crossing all over the house. With her eyes turning a tinge of pink, she dissolves the entirety of the house. " Could we help you?" she asks with some annoyance she she didn't think she would have to see Aoi again.

She takes notice of a certain demon slayer corp member and smiles. " Ah, you were the one outside of the cottage."

Cherry's sweat drops. " You knew I was there all the time."

The witch nods. " Yes, but I knew you wouldn't hurt us. See? I'm in sunlight and it does nothing to me."

" Mama!!!" The witch's smile drops as she turns to see Shinobu holding onto a little boy. With her small stature, Aoba looks massive.

" Oi! Why do you have my kid!" Inosuke asks.

Aoi's eyes widen " Kid? That's not a kid! It's a demon! She's a demon too Shinobu-sama! We need to kill her! She'll manipulate all of us!"

Alexandra's eyes darken. " If that's what you think I am, then why is Inosuke with me? He hates demon's just as much as you do!"

Tanjiro interrupts the conversation " If I may, witch, I appreciate you not harming Cherry but we also trust Aoi more than you! As much as Inosuke is strong, he's also vulnerable."

" VULNERABLE? MONJIRO WHAT?" The beast breathing man yells at him.

Tanjiro smiles some. That's the Inosuke he knows and that's how he would react. He's not under any spell as much as he can see or smell. Maybe just the spell of love.

Shinobu then hands Aoba off to Zenitsu who tries to hold onto him as best as he can. She clears her throat before speaking.

[theformerwitch]

Inosuke was a feral kisser, it suited his personality.

Caught in a mesh of teeth, tongue and grunts, the boar king kissed your lips, his being pressed so hard against you. His tongue shoved itself into your mouth, claiming one of the many unknown territories as his, the first one.

When he broke away, catching his breath, his lips quirked into a smirk.

Effortlessly, he tore your clothes away, leaving you bare. Quite a sight for the boar, looking so delicious. Quickly enough, his clothes followed, and you met his meaty, long cock, fully hard and euphoric.

This was a challenge. A challenge Inosuke was decided to win.

"Get ready for the boar king's cock," He hisses, a wicked smirk on his features, "The great Inosuke''s about to fuck that little pussy of yours."

Your legs were rapidly thrown over his shoulders and, without any further warning, his cock pulled into you.

At your loud pitched moan, Inosuke chuckled, pulling in further until every inch of his shaft had been swallowed by your drooling hole.

"How fun... How fun!!" He laughed, snapping his hips against yours, pressing your knees to your chest as he did.

His thrusts are feral, primal; for anyone, Inosuke's dick would have been too much. But you, witch woman, seemed like you could put up with him.

—inosuke hashibira.

Alexandra felt her eyes roll in the back of her head as she was fucked into the floor of her cottage.

Her hands searched for anything to hold herself from spasming.

" Fuck! Inosuke! Inosukeee!"

Due to the angle and pure power, fluid gushed from her, spraying on his cock and her ass. She was panting hard and fast. The room spun as her orgasm washed over her. A feeling overwhelmed her, hinting that wouldn't be her last orgasm for today.

Gripping his hair, she pulled him up to kiss him once again. A spark escaped her eyes as they turned pink for a moment. " Slow down and let me love you." Came her whisper as she pulled away from his lips. It was a taming spell, while he would go back to normal in a couple of minutes, she wanted the upper hand for just a moment.

Now finding him more malleable, she wrapped her legs around his waist and flipped them over to where she was riding him. Keeping eye contact, she slammed herself over and over on his outrageous cock. " King of the...mountain..." She kept repeating just to be able to rile him up more and more.

Just as she dropped her hips down once more, she began to shift her hips from side to side. At the same time, she dropped her chest down, burying his face in the soft flesh of her breasts. A gasp escaped her as she felt his mouth slowly sink into her skin to leave a mark. " Marking me?"

[theformerwitch]

Hadn't it been for Inosuke's acute senses, he'd have been pierced by your thorns.

He lets out a chuckle, excitement visible on his features. The change i your clothes makes his emerald gaze go up and down on you, his smirk widening in approval.

The fight goes on and on, until eventually Inosuke finds the way to bring you down, pinning you on the floor. He straddles you, sword ready to pierce you.

"I'm no boar lover, woman..." He hisses, sadistic smirk on his lips as he leans in more and more, until you can feel his hot breath inches away from you.

"I'm the king of the fuckin' mountain... Hashibira Inouske."

— inosuke hashibira.

Alexandra struggled against Inosuke's grasps on her.

Horny but scared would be the correct sentiment for this. She just didn't expect to be almost penetrated by swords instead of genitals.

Hashibira Inouske. Huh. That would sounds great in a moan.

" Emollire!"

At once the sharp, jagged swords turn soft. Almost like strings on wooden handles.

Flipping her feet up, she entangled him until she flipped the switch.

Now she was straddling him.

She knew she didn't have enough time but wanted to take advantage of getting the upper hand.

" Then fuck me, king of the mountain. Fuck me, Inouske."

Once again, her lips were back on his and her hands let go of his. Her arms wound around his neck and tangled in that shiny, almost blue like hair of his.

Drool, teeth and animal like.

Just how she liked it.

[theformerwitch]

"And? What are you going to do about that?"

You look so helpless underneath him, he's the boar king after all! No one could ever win against him.

Inosuke presses himself more against you, caging you more in between him and the wall.

"Fight me." Rolls of his tongue, voice so deep and never more confident, "I want you to use that cool shit you just used against me."

Inosuke's lips curve into a wicked smile. "C'mon, one more time, woman, what d'ya say?"

This woman has picked his interest and, boy, was he down for a challenge.

—inosuke hashibira.

Alexandra had to bite back a moan as she could feel every inch of him pressed directly against her.

" I say..."

Quickly, she leaned her head in to press her lips fully to his, allowing her to press a tiny love spell on him.

It wouldn't mess with his free will but just allow him to be more feral and more open about his desires.

Any type of desire.

As Inosuke pulled back in surprise, Alexandra's eyes glowed a soft pink.

The ivy vines she had conjured up had returned and were thicker with thorns on them.

" I'm game, my boar lover. Only if you are able to keep up with me."

The vines quickly launched at him to try to restrain him again only for him to dodge.

" Aw! Come on, darling. Give into me."

With a snap of her fingers, her ceremonial dress turned into a free-flowing skirt with her top being multiple bands of stones, leather ties, necklaces with amulets and small animal skulls.

Her tongue poked out to lick her bottom lip, relishing his taste.
