Instantly, the door opened, and Kane breathed a sigh of relief.

In front of him was a short piece of corridor, before another blast door cut it off from the rest of the bunker. But between him and the next door was the thing that really interested him: Luna.

The catling was casually leaning against the metal wall while juggling a short sword in one of her hands. At her feet were two corpses with misplaced heads, and a detached collar.

Luna grinned knowingly at him, clearly having felt him coming through their bond for quite a while already. "Master!" she purred playfully as she pushed herself of the wall with grace. "You took your time, huh?"

Kane narrowed his eyes, and slowly walked up to her, "I hope you have a good excuse for not answering me earlier…"

The catling shrugged casually while smirking at his approach, "Of course I do, Master. I wouldn't worry you without good reason."

Kane rolled his eyes, and slowly returned to his naked human form, until he stood in front of her and grabbed her chin. His piercing amber gaze burned with anger, as it locked onto her mischievously sparkling, green cat-like eyes.

But as they looked into each other's eyes, something strange happened: his anger melted, and they both started smiling. Then, they started laughing, and Luna jumped into Kane's arms. It was a laugh of relief. A laugh of love.

Kane whispered into her ears, "I love you, too, Luna."

Without pause, the catling's eyes widened, before her lips split into a wide grin. Then, she wrapped her arms around his neck and her legs around his waist, before planting her lips on his.

Kane chuckled, grabbed his Valkyrie's ass to help keep her up, and started responding in kind. Just before, he realized he still hadn't admitted his own feelings, after Luna's declaration of love back in the forest.

Of course he could be excused due to everything that happened since then, but it was just like Luna to be annoyed with it anyway, and thus deciding to make him worry a little.

And if it all ended in a 'punishment', then all the better.

But in the end, when they were finally together again, neither of them felt like playing any games. All they felt was relief. So Kane simply told her what she wanted to hear. And what he wanted to say.

The near-death experiences they both had during the last few days, had thoroughly beaten out any hesitation about sharing their feelings with each other.

As if deliberately wanting to disrupt their moment, a group of bandits came from the same direction as Kane. They were searching for the intruder.

At first, when they noticed the naked man locked in a passionate kiss with a catling next to two beheaded corpses, they paused for a moment to let the bizarre sight sink in.

A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.

But then they quickly realized these were the intruders they'd been looking for and started charging as their yelling and roaring reverberated around the dilapidated bunker's corridors.

Kane and Luna ignored them, however. And with good reason.

Before the bandits got very far, the heavy door, which Ella had previously opened to let Kane in, slammed shut right in front of them. Suddenly, Kane and Luna were entirely alone, surrounded by sturdy walls and doors.

In their own little peaceful corner, Luna's body melted into Kane's as their tongues wrestled and their hands roamed. Finally, they were able to let loose and forget about the outside world.

They'd been ambushed by the Cabal, tossed into another world, then ambushed again, before one of them almost died and the other had their DNA twisted around. Then, at the end of the worst roller coaster of all time, they were once again tossed into the rift roulette, only to end up where they were now.

But at this moment, they were both alive and well. Better than well. Kane was stronger than ever, and they were in a world they could handle. A world that didn't know them. A world that wasn't prepared for them.

It wasn't long before Luna's clothes suddenly disappeared into nothing, but rather than ask where they went, Kane took the opportunity to sink his already hard cock into her wet folds.

From that moment on, no more words were needed.

Luna moaned loudly into her master's mouth as his massive tool pushed apart her insides. Without rest, Kane used his grip on her ass to start bouncing her up and down.

All the while, their tongues kept wrestling as they released all their pent-up emotions from the last few days and worked out their relief on each other.

For the next hour or so, their moans and grunts echoed throughout this small piece of corridor Ella had cordoned of for them. The master and Valkyrie pair fucked all over the place. On the floor, against the wall, in every position they knew.

But finally, it came to an end.

Kane sagged down to the ground, his back against a wall, with Luna in his arms. They both panted as if they were regular mortals who'd just run a marathon.

Luna nestled up to him as if she was an actual cat, a wide smile on her face. "So… we love each other, huh?" she purred softly, a little playfully.

Amused, Kane chuckled, "Well, yeah. I think we've known for a long time, haven't we? We've just avoided talking about it."

Rolling her eyes, Luna groaned, "Yeah, I guess so. It just felt so awkward, and pointless. Like, we had so much other crap going on, it just didn't seem like the time. But I guess things have been put into perspective, huh, Master?"

Kane smirked and nodded, "I guess that's what happens when you get tossed around various worlds and chased by a fucking eighth stage Mystic."

Luna nodded as well, her head resting on his chest. Silence descended on them for a moment as they simply enjoyed each other's presence.

Suddenly, Kane muttered something, "You know, I wouldn't mind if you called me Kane…"

But Luna shook her head and frowned in determination, "I'm your Valkyrie, Master. That means something. A Master and Valkyrie can love each other, but the Valkyrie is a servant, first and foremost. It's the same with my father and mother. I know they love each other, but he's her Valkyrie, so he calls her Mistress."

Kane nodded slowly, "As you wish," before he smirked a little perversely, "I can't say I don't enjoy it, either."

Luna giggled, "My Mom is the same way. You two are actually very alike."

Her master chuckled, "I'll take that as a compliment."

"You should!" the Valkyrie smiled.

Another silence descended, before Kane suddenly asked, "By the way, how did you make your clothes disappear earlier?"

Luna's eyes lit up, and she smiled mysteriously.
