-Gina.

She was quite interesting.

Her emotions were a spectrum. When happy, her smile would draw from ear to ear. When sad, she would wail and cry, tears flowing like a waterfall down her face. When angry, her blue eyes would smolder with fire, her lips in a tight line, her voice shrill when yelling and dangerously menacing when she clenched her fists and gritted her teeth.

He didn't know what he would do with her.

She brought emotions he hadn't felt since he was a child come to the surface. Such things as were not appropriate to a general like him. It scared him (something he would never admit to anyone). He had tried to stop himself from indulging in the joys of her flesh, the taste of her lips, the sound of her laugh...

Honestly, he tried. He'd made it for the past two months.

But damn, that minx just had to make it difficult.

"Where have you been?"

She had interrupted his training. He was in the middle of a spar with a fellow soldier when all her golden hair and legs had come. She had the audacity to dismiss the man of lower rank and end his workout. She seemed unfazed by his deathly glare.

"Sailor Venus, it would very much please me it if you let me be. I am training," he said emotionlessly. The general turned away from her, walking over to the wall of weapons where he chose a menacing sword, pretending to inspect it.

He bristled as he felt her hand on his lower back, slowly massaging up to his shoulder blades. "Not until you answer my question, dear General."

Stepping out of her reach, he looked over his shoulder, giving her yet another one of his famous glares. "I have been busy. Now, leave me be."

He dismissed her once again but knew that his words would never weaken her determination. She came to his front, narrowing those bright blue eyes that he loved but despised as well. "I've only asked you a simple question and-"

"And I have given you a simple answer."

She huffed. He glared. None giving purchase to the other until she flowed from one emotion into the other, losing all trace of frustration to come away with a sly smile. Her hand came up to tease his chest and he stared stoically. She etched a circle of heat onto his peck, looking at him through her eyelashes.

"Would you mind sparring with me, General Kunzite?"

Damn her. "I have matters to attend to."

"Oh, come now. You're the strong, mean, and sexy leader of the Shitennou. I don't think anyone would have the guts to stand up to a scary guy like you."

He didn't miss the way she nonchalantly slipped in her flirting words. He raised a silver eyebrow, surprising himself that he was actually considering her request.

Damn wench.

"…I…Fine," he snapped.

"Great!"

The grin she flashed him was tempting him to grab her and spar with her mouth instead of sword but, sheer force of will caused him to turn his attention back to the deadly weapons propped on the wall. "I presume that you would like to use-What are you doing?"

She was bent by the waist, fussing with the straps of her high heels. Looking up, she blew her bangs out of her face. "The swords are boring me," she said. "Let's try some hand-to-hand instead."

He barely caught her words as he hungrily eyed her legs. Damn her and those tanned, long legs. He cleared his throat. "Pardon?"

She came back to her full height, tossing the orange heels off to the side. With a roll of her eyes, the Venusian princess sauntered over to the other side of the training mat and looking over her shoulder, repeated, "Hand-to-hand? You know? I kick here, a stroke there…"

Kunzite decided to ignore the last part to her invitation and instead walked over to face her from the opposite side of the mat. "Don't you fight with those shoes?"

"I want to try something new."

"Hm."

Smirking, the Sailor Scout moved into action. His arm came up to block her fist, using his other hand to grasp hers and pull her close. Her foot came into contact with his leg and he grunted in pain.

He pushed her away, aiming to clip her shoulder.

She blocked. She went for his side.

He grabbed her calf, holding her there. His fingers burned where he came in contact with her.

God, why did fighting her have to be such a turn on?

He had to let go.

LET. GO.

His body refused to listen as instead of swatting her away, he pulled her toward him, winding her leg around his waist.

Venus gasped in surprise, looking up in his green eyes.

"You…are such…a tease," he growled.

Kunzite hungrily captured her lips, feeling her smile and press into him more.

He was so close to breaking his record.

He'd just have to try next month.

But first…

A certain princess needed to be punished.
