When he moved to the Sanctuary along with all of his Valkyries, Sam was given an entire building near one of the entrances to make it easy for him to move when necessary.

With their ship being wrecked beyond repair he chose to relocate only the most essential of essentials there, which could be boiled down to three Eirs and the equipment needed to make use of his drones and the satellite he launched to space when they arrived.

The rooms had little in terms of furniture, but at the very least each one had a shower.

Sam took off his clothes, went in and started the shower, but after a couple of seconds he peeked outside and saw that Ichigo was still standing there, her face a brilliant shade of red as she stared at him with wide eyes.

“Aren’t you coming?” He asked, holding back the urge to smile.

When they entered the room, Sam suddenly got the urge to see how the extremely shy Valkyrie would react if he suddenly began taking his clothes off.

Without delay he began stripping, as if he was alone in his own house, and watched from the corner of his eye as Ichigo stood there petrified, her eyes locked on him the whole time. He expected her to look away and feel ashamed, but maybe because he was pretending that he didn’t notice her staring, she continued watching silently all the way until he entered the shower.

She remained motionless until he called out for her, and when she realized what had just happened, her face began heating up once more.

“I… um… I’m…”

Her lips opened and closed but no intelligible words came out of her. She was already a nervous mess, but when Sam stepped out of the shower, facing her with his already erect penis, she went rigid once more.

“Well, I guess it’s only natural that you would be nervous.” Sam said, suppressing the urge to smile. “As Three said back there, we aren’t going to do anything serious, you know.”

“Um… I… I’m not…”

“You want to become my personal Valkyrie, right?”

When he asked her that question, she looked up at him seemingly surprised. The only time it came up was way back when Nino tried to diverge attention from her. Back then, Ichigo got so embarrassed that she escaped without saying anything. She tried not to think about it as much as she could, but when the Doctor brought it up she once again felt like teleporting away.

“You should use this chance to prepare yourself mentally.” Sam went on. “Being shy all the time won’t get you anywhere.”

Her blushing all the time was a really cute trait, but Sam understood that her shyness might turn out to be a bother once they get into the act. There was a time and place for everything, and if she couldn’t be a little proactive when alone with him, he felt that she wouldn’t enjoy their time together as much.

Having said what he wants, Sam entered the shower once more. He opened the water and let it wash over him, and after a few seconds he heard the door open.

Ichigo was there, completely nude. When their eyes met she quickly averted her gaze, tucking a few strands of her pink hair behind her left ear, which was tinged with a red color. Her breasts, now free from the constraints of her uniform and combat suit, appeared larger and a lot softer than before. She had to hold them up with her right arm and they seemed on the verge of spilling over at any moment.

As expected of a Valkyrie, her snow white skin was flawless. Though she was taller than most Valkyries, her body type was less athletic and a bit thicker. Of course, since Valkyries didn’t lose or gain fat, it’s clear that her body was specifically designed to be like this. As he looked her up and down, Sam thanked Wolf once again for allowing him to enjoy such treats.

“Ah, I see you didn’t run away.” Sam said, smiling as he turned the water off. “Come on in.”

The shower room was rather small, probably because it was made to be used by only one person. Once the Valkyrie entered and Sam closed the door behind her, he noticed that she was pressing herself against the wall trying to keep as much space between them as possible.

Unfortunately for her, his sword was so close to her belly that it could touch it if he were to move even a little.

It took quite a lot of courage for her to get to this point but it doesn’t seem like her nervousness was going away any time soon. Sam decided to back away and give her a little space, hoping that she would be able to relax a little so things wouldn’t go in a back direction between them.

Ichigo was struggling with where to look. Her chest was filled with a storm of emotions and her face felt like it was on fire. Her eyes scanned the Doctor’s body. It was different from anything she saw before, with everyone around her being Valkyries and all. It appeared to be carved out of stone, with a rigid outline well defined muscles. It lacked the softness she and her fellow Valkyries, but for some reason it seemed to spark a different kind of emotion inside of her.

Unbeknownst to her, her left hand had moved on its own, reaching to touch his chiseled chest. She stopped herself and looked up at the man, feeling her embarrassment return, but Sam only smiled at her. He then spoke in a calm and gentle tone.

“Go on.” He said. “There is nothing to worry about.”

For a moment Ichigo hesitated, but her curiosity and excitement won in the end and her hand began to move once more. 𝑶𝒱xt.𝗈𝗆

Her thin, delicate fingers retracted momentarily when they made contact with his skin, but then she laid her hand on his pecs and began caressing them, a surprised look taking over her face.
