Rei giggled softly, dragging Zuko along with them by the hand around the long forgotten village, the one once belonging to Rei's people now just a forgotten sliver of history amoung the ruins.
Rei's necklace glinted in the light of the moon, as if Tui herself was blessing their secret love, now no longer something Zuko could just throw away so easily. Not with Rei and their beautiful gray and blue eyes looking at him so trustingly when they pulled him inside a room.
They had just tied the knot hours ago, no fire sages, no nothing, they didn't need that anyway, just eachother and the leftover spirits haunting this place.
That, and Rei's soft skin against Zuko's calloused palms. Rei rested their cheek against Zuko's hand as it rested their, slowly sitting back on the surprisingly clean and tidy bed, sheets white as snow despite being left untouched for so long.
Zuko's breath hitched softly when Rei pulled him down with a smile o to the bed and laid next to him, eyes glinting and seeming to reflect the stars on their depths, eyes like storm clouds and a raging sea during a hurricane or typhoon, eyes he could get lost in because in the right light they looked like silver and sapphires.
They smiled, a large grin plastered on their face as they stared at him, scar and everything.
"Are you just gonna lay there awkwardly and gawk at me Zuko?" They asked, eyes turning playful, voice breathy and soft.
The voice of what was now Zuko's and Zuko's alone, just as he was theirs and their alone. He could stay here staring all night, hell to everyone else, even the spirits.
"Maybe i will," He responded, raspy voice filled with rare, genuine awe and love towards the Xuě Jièbáo lying on their side next to him. "You're gorgeous, so very gorgeous." He breathed.
Rei's gaze softened further, before they propped themself up on their elbow with a chuckle. "Such a charmer you are." They said, before sitting up on their knees on the bed among the silk, snow white sheets.
Ones that would be stained red like fire lilies against moon flowers if Rei got what they wanted from their new husband tonight.
Zuko sat up as well after a bit, before leaning in, lips meeting as they had during their own secret little wedding theyd had, alone, with the spirits as witnesses. That was enough for Rei, so itd be enough for Zuko, though, he wished he didnt have to keep them secret, wished so much that he could give them a proper wedding, like the ones back at the fire nation.
Rei kissed him, hands coming up to cup his cheeks as they felt Zuko hesitantly push Rei back onto the mattress softly, hands on their waist and hips, thumbs caressing above their clothing.
"You're so pretty in the moonlight. Cold and beautiful as ever." He muttered, breathy as he gazed down at them, slotting himself between Rei's clothed legs.
Rei smiled, before reaching up for their coat and slowly removing the outer layer, then their shirt, and their boots, and their pants, watching Zuko's eyes rake over them appreciatevely, like they were a painting of a beautiful spirit in the fire palace halls.
Rei waited, Zuko shedding his own layers rather quickly when he realized he was staring instead if acting. Slowly re-slotting himself between Rei's muscular legs and thighs once more, soft skin against hard muscle as Rei propped themself on their elbows to look at him.
They blinked softly, before Zuko moved, unsure if what to do before pressing a finger against Rei's cunt, their body freezing up slightly in surprise as Zuko pushed the one finger in, surprisingly thick and filling for jut a single digit.
Rei was already wet so it helped, Zuko pulling the finger out out before pushing in two next, Rei oddly silent yet biting their lip, eyes lidded softly as they watched.
"Thats it." They said after a bit when Zuko pressed against their pink velvet walls with his fingers experimentally, before biting his lower lip, cheeks slightly red.
Rei let out a soft moan, just slightly audible when he moved his fingers again, working them slowly and gently at first, from what he was taught by his mother, which differed greatly from his fathers teachings, seemed to work better.
Zuko slipped the fingers out, Rei sighing as they looked down, no longer propped up but lying down fully on theur back, legs held by the back of their knees and spread wide. Ready, for him.
Zuko slowly stroked himself, once, twice, before slowly pressing against Rei's entrance, the muscle giving way deliciously, still tight but relaxed enough he could slip in without them whimpering in to much pain.
Zuko sighed, just the tip in so far, before positioning himself, one hand on the side of Rei's head, the other on their waist still as he pulled back slightly before pushing in once more, inching deeper, Rei's face tightening slightly, before the uncomfortable feeling began to ebb away into pleasure the longer he moved and paused, letting them adjust as needed.
When he finally bottomed out he sighed, and then leaned down, kissing Rei's lips Rei's hands coming up to his neck, arms wrapping around his shoulders and neck softly as he began thrusting slowly and gently, making sure to watch Rei's face and body closely.
"Faster..." Rei muttered against his lips after a while, Zuko slowly picking up his pace, noticing hiw Rei's expression became one of further pleasure, he found the perfect pace after a while of adjusting it, as well as a great angle, Rei letting out soft or high moans with every thrust that kissed their cervix, bullying it back until he was balls deep, panting, a sweating, skin slapping against skin in a careful way, a medium pave, and Rei was already falling apart.
Rei groaned, before keening with a high "Haah!!" and coming rather fast, god they were sensitive, clenching down as they panted and squirted. They were so pretty, so perfect, fit him like a glove, like two halves of a whole in a more romantic way than anything.
"You're so pretty... so perfect, you think you can do that again, make more sounds like that for me." Zuko asked softly, Rei nodding slightly as they're legs relaxed again, Zuko's hand coming between their legs and touching the bud there gently, looking at Rei. "There?" He asked, moving his thumb slowly at first, Rei nodding, tears of pleasure and pain pricking at the corners of their eyes just slightly as Zuko's thumb began moving fast.
Nevermind, they didnt have more in them, every time they orgasmed it was dry, with high keening cries and whimpers, legs shaking around Zuko's waist as they panted everytime Zuko's thumb paused. Before Rei bit their lower lip, frustrated at their body.
"I wanna cum." they cried, almsot brattily, which surprised Zuko, Zuko's thumb rubbing them fast again, their legs shaking as they Kennedy and moaned again trying to make them cum once more, but it seemed they only had that first one in them.
Zuko, feeling Rei clenching around them so much at hus efforts to have them cum once more for him, began feeling his hips stuttering against theirs as he gritted his teeth.
"Im gonna cum, ok? You ready?" He asked, Rei nodding as they met his eyes, their own still teary and overstimulated, legs trembling as Zuko's hips bucked shallowly against Rei's as he came, panting as he came down from his high, cupping Rei's face.
"Are you alright?" He asked, keeping himself up with his elbows, foreheads touching as they gazed into eachothers eyes, Zuko staying inside Rei for a bit longer than necessary before regaining his strength and pulling out gently and carefully before leaving a kiss on Rei's cheek.

Rei blinked awake the next day silk white sheets covering them, the ones under the blankets where they had laid last night stained red as they sat up gingerly, legs trembling still, sore and shaky as they sighed. Zuko having cleaned them up last night when they passed out afterwards his arm draped over their waist and hips possessively in his sleep as he laid on his side behind them, pressed up against their back, warm and solid.
