Six years later, Keith yawned as he heard the sounds laughter coming from downstairs. With no more serious threats to the Galaxy, his friends finding their own peace and happiness, he and Acxa had left back to Earth, renovating the old cabin his parents had once used and turning it into a real home. He turned and tried to go back to sleep, having worked late the night before. Burying his head in the pillow, he yelped and groaned when he felt something pounce on him, opening an eye and looking up at his daughter as his massive wolf in the corner barking out laughter.

"Krolia, what are you doing pouncing me?" he asked, yawning and wrapping his arm around his daughter and pulling her onto the bed. "Got'cha now."

"Daddy," Krolia giggled, snuggling back against her father. "Mama said it's time to get up. She's making breakfast, and you're gonna miss it."

"Oh, I am?" Keith asked, kissing Krolia's head. He sat up and yawned, stretching and rubbing his eyes. "How're you today?"

"I'm good. Yorak's being grumpy, but Mama says that's the you in him," she giggled.

"Yeah, probably is," Keith said. "You go back downstairs and tell Mama I'll be right there." He kissed Krolia's head and smiled softly. "Love you, baby girl."

"Love you, Daddy," Krolia said, kissing his cheek and jumping off of the bed. She ran over to the wolf and hugged him, kissing his snout. "Good morning, Texas!" The wolf barked and licked Krolia's face, getting up and shaking his fur out and trotting out beside her to the staircase.

Keith smiled softly, shaking his head and getting out of the bed. He quickly dressed and grabbed his jacket and pulled it on, Lance having bought him a new one for his and Acxa's anniversary that year. He walked downstairs and heard the twins talking and chattering away, hearing Acxa asking questions.

"And what makes you think you can fly?" Acxa asked, looking at her son. "Hm? Did Uncle Lance put that thought into your head?"

"He said if I got a running start off of the roof and pushed with all my strengths I'd fly," Yorak said. "Is he wrong, Mama?"

"Yes," Acxa said with a cocked eyebrow. "Remind me next time I see your uncle, I'm going to kick his butt."

"Ok, Mama," Yorak said with a smile. He looked over as Keith walked downstairs and he smiled. "Daddy!"

Keith smiled and walked over, kissing Yorak's head. "Good morning," he said. He walked into the kitchen and kissed Acxa, smiling against her lips as he heard the twins making gagging noises. "Morning, love."

"Good morning," Acxa said with a smile, turning back to the stove. "Breakfast is almost done. What are you planning on doing today, my dear?"

"Visit Mom and Dad," Keith said. "Coran and Hunk. Tell them what's going on, what's happened lately."

Acxa nodded. "I can't believe it's been three years since we lost Hunk," she said. "And Shay went back to the Balmera with Corvus and we lost contact with them."

"I know," Keith said. "The last couple of years haven't been great for keeping people. Hunk, Coran, Pidge's dad, Mom. I'm just glad we had the time we did with them."

Acxa nodded, putting her hand on Keith's cheek. "I know, love," she said. "I'm glad we had time with them, too. Just like I'm glad they accepted me."

"They loved you, Acxa," Keith said, turning his head and kissing Acxa's palm softly. "Pidge sure as hell does. Picking your brain as often as she can to keep the Castle of Lions upgraded and updated, the Garrison asking for strategy when you're around." He smiled and gave her hand a squeeze, moving around to the coffee pot. "By the way. Have we heard from Shiro and Allura lately?"

"According to Ezor, they're coming back from the Kasterberous Systems this week and should be here by Saturday for the twins' birthday," Acxa said. "Ezor's going to make it as well. Something about not missing her favorite niece and nephew's birthday."

Keith snickered softly and nodded. "Alright," he said. "What are you up to today?"

"Romelle wants to head into the City," Acxa said. "She wants to get a few presents for the kids and wants me to help her. So, we're leaving the kids in the Castle with Pidge and Matty."

"Sounds good," Keith said, kissing Acxa. "Let me help finish up breakfast. I can drop the kids at the Castle and head to see Mom."

Acxa smiled as she kissed Keith back and nodded. "Alright," she said, handing him the spatula and stepping out of the way. She set the table and watched her children playing on the floor, Texas barking and pouncing on Krolia and pinning her to the floor. "Texas."

The wolf whined and wiggled off of Krolia, the six-year-old giggling as she sat up and wrapped her arms around his neck. "He didn't do nothing, Mama," she giggled. "He's just giving loves."

"Well, don't let him lay on you like that," Krolia said. "Go wash up. Breakfast is almost ready."

"Oks!" Krolia said, kissing Texas' snout and getting up before running to the bathroom.

Acxa shook her head softly, walking back into the kitchen. "So, why name the wolf Texas?" she asked. "I don't think you ever told me."

"It was my dad's name," Keith said. "Since we named the kids after Mom and what she wanted to name me, I thought I'd name the wolf after Dad. Cause he's just like Dad was. Mean looking but a big softy with a heart of gold."

Acxa smiled softly. "Well, now I understand," she said.

An hour later, Keith sighed as he laid flowers on his parents and Hunk's graves, sitting down and folding his arms softly. "You guys would be proud," he said

He explained about his work with the Garrison and how he was teaching flight school with Shiro, how one student was acting out that reminded him of himself when he was in the Garrison. He sat for what felt like hours, recounting every trip and mission he'd done, every friend he'd found and reconnected with, praying that something he said reached his parents and his friend. After nearly all day sitting on the dirt and staring at the three headstones, Keith got up and walked away, heading back for the house. He fluffed his shirt a bit, sighing as it stuck to his chest.

"Ugh. I need to shower after that," he muttered. He walked back into the house and shut the door, looking around. "Anyone home?"

When he didn't hear anything, he walked upstairs and heard the shower in the master bathroom going. He looked in and smirked, seeing Acxa's back to the glass. He stripped down and walked into the shower, wrapping his arms around her waist and snickering when she jumped.

"Hi, baby," he said, kissing her neck.

"Asshole," Acxa laughed, turning and kissing Keith. "When did you get back?"

"Just now," he said, kissing her back and smiling. "Thought I'd surprise you."

"Mmm…what kind of surprise, Mr. Kogane?" Acxa asked with a teasing smirk.

Keith grinned, a fire igniting in his eyes. "Well…I remember the last time I screwed your brains out in the shower," he said, sliding his hand down and dipping his fingers against Acxa's pussy slowly, pushing his fingers into her and hearing her gasp. "And it's been a while since we've played around. I thought, since the kids aren't here, I could make you cum once or twice."

"Mm…yes, please," Acxa moaned, feeling Keith's fingers slip into her. She let her head fall against Keith's shoulder, biting his neck softly as she moaned out, his fingers scissoring inside of her pussy. She gasped and felt his thumb rubbing her clit, a third finger slipping inside of her. "Keith…"

Keith smiled, lowering himself onto the shower floor and lifting Acxa's leg over his shoulder. "Get ready for a ride, baby," he said, looking up at her as he slid his tongue against her, dipping it into her depths and chuckling when she grabbed his hair and pulled him deeper. He grabbed her ass as he kept sliding his tongue through his wife's folds, hearing her whimpering above him. "Why are you whimpering, love?"

"Feels so damn good," Acxa moaned, grinding her hips against Keith's mouth as he started tonguing her clit, her head falling back against the shower wall. "Mmm…more, baby, please…"

Keith laughed, dragging Acxa back against his lips as he started digging his tongue into her, his nose brushing her clit as he did. He heard her gasp in surprise, her hands tightening in his hair. He playfully slapped her ass, the sound reverberating off of the wall thanks to the shower. He looked up at Acxa, digging his tongue deeper into her, putting a bit of pressure on her clit.

"Oh, Spirits…Keith, please!" Acxa moaned, panting as she closed her eyes.

"Then cum," Keith smirked, looking up at Acxa as he pushed three fingers back into her, wrapping his lips around her clit and sucking on it as he started pumping his fingers against her, curling them and hitting her most sensitive spot.

"Keith!" Acxa moaned, panting as she arched and felt herself cum, a deep moan tearing from her lips as she felt him latch his mouth around her, panting when his tongue slipped into her again. "Quiznak…you are…too goddamn…good…" She felt him lower her leg and she sank to the floor, panting as she came down from her high. "Mmm…"

Keith smiled, licking his lips as he looked at the relaxed smile on his wife's face. "Well, six years and you've never complained," he said. He reached over and shut the water off, turning off the faucet as he stood up and shook his hair out, helping Acxa stand. He laughed softly when she fell against him, and he lifted her up.

Acxa rolled her eyes, slapping Keith's chest softly. "You're the one that made my legs turn to jelly. Don't look so smug, asshole," she said.

"Why not?" Keith asked, pinching Acxa's ass. "It makes me happy when you fall for me."

"Oh, by the Gods," Acxa said, rolling her eyes again despite the smile on his face. "You're insufferable."

"You love me anyway," Keith said, letting Acxa fall onto the bed. She blew her hair out of her face, sitting up on her elbows as she watched him climb onto the bed.

"Oh, I love parts of you," Acxa said with a dangerous smirk. "Like this." She reached out and grabbed Keith's cock, making him jump when she gripped him. She pushed him back and straddled his legs, brushing her wet hair out of her face before she leaned down and flicked her tongue over his tip, nipping with her fangs softly. "I want you to just lay there and enjoy this, baby."

"Mm…too easy," Keith said, laying his head back and running his hand through Acxa's hair.

Acxa smirked, sliding her tongue from the base to the tip of Keith's shaft, opening her mouth and taking him in, flicking her tongue against his tip. She started bobbing her head, looking up at her husband with blazing and seductive eyes, moaning against his cock in her mouth. She lowered her head down and took him into her throat, moaning as she did. She pulled back and gasped, sucking on his tip before she started hollowing out her cheeks and adding some pressure.

"Fuck…" Keith moaned, his hand tightening in her hair and sighing as he did. "Mmm…Acxa, fuck. That feels so goddamn good."

Acxa, despite herself, giggled as she kept working her tongue against Keith's shaft. She moaned as she took him down her throat again, gagging a bit as she held it. She moaned out again and pulled off of him, gasping for air as she did. "Mm…that felt good," she panted, licking her lips before stroking him fast. "You always do taste so good." She kept stroking him, leaning down and flicking her tongue over his head.

"Fuck…" Keith moaned, his eyes closing as his hips bucked against Acxa's hand. "Mmm…Acxa…"

Acxa smiled, wrapping her lips around Keith's cock before she started sucking harder, flicking her tongue out and teasing his balls as she took him down her throat again. She relaxed and tightened her throat, giggling around his cock as she felt his pulse through his cock. She pulled back and licked her lips, looking up at Keith. "Cum in my mouth, baby. I want to taste you again," she said, reaching up and putting Keith's hands in her hair as she started going harder around his cock.

Keith moaned softly, holding Acxa's head as he started thrusting against her mouth, hearing her moaning and panting around his shaft. He panted and felt his heart thunder, looking down. "Fuck…here it comes, baby," he moaned, thrusting into Acxa's mouth one last time as he felt himself cum, closing his eyes as he did.

Acxa moaned around Keith's cock, feeling him cum on her tongue and down her throat. She felt the last few splurts hit her tongue, sealing her lips and pulling off of him. She looked up as she sat up, seeing Keith watching her. She moaned as she swallowed his cum, licking her lips as she did. "Mmm…you still taste as good as I do," she said, crawling up and kissing Keith, hearing him laugh in the kiss.

"Well, that's good," Keith said, pulling Acxa's hips against his as he felt her grind against him. "Because I'm not done with you yet." He reached between them and grabbed his cock, pushing it against Acxa's lips, pulling her down onto him and hearing her moan as she was impaled on his shaft.

"Oh, quiznak," she moaned, her back arching as she put her hands against Keith's chest, rolling her hips against his cock and taking him deeper. She lifted up and started slamming against him, feeling his entire length hit her deepest walls. Acxa moaned, feeling his hands on her ass as she rode him, leaning down and kissing him again as she kept working him over.

"Fuck, you feel good inside," Keith moaned. "You always do."

"I love your cock in me," Acxa whispered, biting his neck softly and moaning as he slammed up into her.

The pair froze when they heard a car door outside, Acxa sitting up and looking out of the window and seeing Pidge's car. She groaned and let herself fall against Keith, panting softly. "I don't want to stop," she moaned.

Keith snickered softly, tracing Acxa's back softly and rolling his hips against hers. "We can pick up later after they're in bed," he said, leaning up and kissing her. "We need to get dressed before they come running in here."

Acxa sighed and nodded, kissing Keith back as she slid off of him, whining at the empty feeling inside before she grabbed clothes from the dresser and slid them on, watching him get up. "I'll head them off," she said, walking back into the bathroom and rinsing her mouth out before she kissed Keith again. "Hurry downstairs, baby."

Keith smiled and nodded, watching Acxa walk out. He dressed and walked back into the bathroom, brushing his teeth and sighing as he looked in the mirror, snickering softly. "That woman," he said, making his way downstairs.

"About time you come out," Pidge said with a smile, standing beside Ezor as her son Matt hung from her shoulders.

"Yeah, yeah," Keith snickered, laughing when Krolia and Yorak pounced on him. "Ah!" He hit the ground and laughed, hugging his twins. "Hi, guys."

"Hi, Daddy," they giggled, hugging their father back.

"They were behaved and had fun today. I showed them the Bridge and the Lions launch bays. I wouldn't take them out flying, and they started crying" Pidge said, smiling softly as she kissed Matt's cheek. "You silly, stop hanging on Mama."

"No. You're fun to hang off of, Mama," Matt said with a smile, kissing her cheek and giggling.

Pidge smiled and rolled her eyes playfully. "So, we've got everything for the weekend," she said. "Shiro messaged and said they're leaving Kasterberous and should be here on Friday, actually. Alfor and Ran are so excited to come home."

"Oh, I bet," Keith said. "Bet Matt's missing Ran." Matt's face got red and he slid off of Pidge's back, frowning. "Matt, I'm just playing." Matt stuck his tongue out at Keith and smiled. Keith smiled softly, hugging Pidge. "Thanks for watching them this afternoon."

Pidge hugged Keith back and smiled. "Oh, you know I don't mind. These two are always well behaved," she said. "Unlike Bandor and Fala."

"That's the Lance in them," Keith laughed.

"No shit," Pidge laughed. "I should get back."

"Me too," Ezor said with a smile as she hugged Acxa and Keith. "Love you guys."

"Love you," Acxa said with a smile, hugging her friend back. "We'll see you guys on Saturday."

"You know it," Pidge said, putting her hand on Ezor's hip. "C'mon, Ez. Let's go home."

Ezor smiled and nodded, kneeling down and kissing Krolia and Yorak's heads. "You be good, ok? And next time I'll bring a big surprise!"

"Yay!" the twins cheered, Keith rolling his eyes.

"Go!" the former Red Paladin laughed, shaking his head as he watched Ezor and Pidge walk out with Matt.

He sighed as he stood on the porch and watched the sun set later that night, feeling Acxa's arms around his waist. He leaned back against her and smiled softly, leaning up and kissing her cheek. "I love you," he whispered.

"I love you," Acxa said, leaning down and kissing Keith. "That's never going to change."

Keith smiled and nodded, knowing that deep down—no matter what happened or who got in the way—he'd always have Acxa and his twins beside him until the end of their days.
