Cruel and Unusual

 

Yhea was once again in Yamasaki General and once again on the powerful pain medicine. The difference was so was Asuna. She had requested to be put in the same room and Yhea stared at the ceiling. She was sleeping heavily from the widow and her doctor daughter had pushed the pure thing. Jao had done the same with him. He was now wishing his distant relation had not; he was miserable.

 

“Asuna?” He whispered.

 

“Huh?” She said sleepily.

 

“Asuna!” Yhea griped.

 

“What?” She said in a groggy way.

 

“I cannot move. I cannot think.” He whined.

 

“Shut up and sleep.” Asuna snapped.

 

“Why are you in here?” Yhea asked in a low whisper.

 

“Because I wanted to ask you later what Maec was thinking. He was thinking something but I cannot remember. I feel warm.” She said yawning.

 

“Yes well I am horny yet again.” He snapped.

 

“Poor Shouten. You do not hurt do you?” She asked with cloudy eyes.

 

“It affects you too!” He accused.

 

“It makes me less inhibited so if you do not wish me to rut you to death then shut up.” She said closing her eyes.

 

“He was thinking the extent of our binding was too deep. He was thinking we had done the marriage rituals but we have not.” Yhea sighed.

 

“Oh that was it.” She said in a low voice.

 

“Yes. I do not know why he would have thought that but he was thinking it.” He continued.

 

“Yhea please. I need sleep.” Asuna commanded.

 

“Oh you get to tell me what to do. Well I am not sleepy. I am trying like hell to concentrate on something other then my anatomy at the moment.” He growled.

 

He suddenly gasped in and he stared over at her. She was using her telekinesis to ease it and he squirmed on the bed.

 

“How in the hell did you get such control?” He groaned out.

 

“Years of practice.” She said with eyes closed.

 

“I am going to…Gods!” He cried out.

 

“Better? Call on the nurse and then go to sleep!” She snapped.

 

“Rather your lips or sheath but nice.” Yhea answered honestly.

 

Asuna suddenly ported beside him and his tongue was loose due to the Widow. He was surprised and she leaned over him.

 

“Now you wish to talk? What do you wish to talk about Yhea?” She asked in a husky tone.

 

“I do not know.” He said as his mouth was suddenly dry.

 

“You said I was stupid.” Asuna said tracing his lip with the claw of her thumb.

 

“I was afraid we would be overcome. You drained all your energies and mine pulling that stunt. You decimated the palace in Astana.” Yhea replied.

 

“You continue to surprise me with your intelligence and wit.” She said barely nipping his mouth.

 

“Calling you stupid is witty?” He asked almost amused.

 

“Calling me stupid is brave.” She grinned.

 

“Hanaj was recovered my father stated.” Yhea said gently.

 

“Hai. I heard. He was injured too. Yhea, I want to work these issues we seem to have out.” Asuna said holding his face between her palms.

 

“We are both high off of a very potent substance at the moment and I am quite sure I will regret this later.” He sighed.

 

“Shall I show what happens if I sink my fangs into your mating mark?” She asked.

 

“Pardon?” He asked surprised.

 

She was annoyed and she carried through with her threat. He went rigid and the empusae bliss seemed amplified. He actually instantly reacted and he yelped out as he spilled his semen. Yhea was in shock and massive bliss at the same moment.

 

“What was that?” He asked in a trembling tone.

 

“Inu mating mark set off by my succubus yoki.” She considered with a furrowed brow.

 

“That must be what Maec felt.” Yhea said with a trembling voice.

 

“You think I bound you tightly?” She asked as she slipped her hand under his blanket.

 

He watched her and she pulled her hand back. She scented his essence for a second and she groaned a little. Yhea was stuck in a trance as she licked her fingers clean and stared at him.

 

“I wish you had come after me first. I would have devoured you.” She said brazenly.

 

He gulped and she ravished his mouth. She did seem a bit less inhibited then normal and that was saying a lot. She was taking much from his lips and tongue and she snarled in his mouth. He whimpered and wondered if they were going to fuck right here yet again. She got suddenly angry and shoved him away.

 

“I do not just fuck my mates Yhea and we did mate by the way.” She said hissing.

 

“Go to your own bed woman. I am not going to do this.” He snapped.

 

Her eyes turned bright crimson and she had a huge need to conquer this man. His almost manic personality begged to be brought to heel. She yanked out her IV and she suddenly did the same to him. He looked outraged at her behavior.

 

“I have a mind to do something. You have lessons to be learned wraith.” She said with crimson eyes.

 

“Oh I do?” He said gritting his teeth.

 

“Hai.” She nearly snarled.

 

“Bring it nasty little bitch.” Yhea challenged her.

 

She gave him a mean smirk and she ported out. He looked around and he was still paralyzed. He cursed wildly and wondered what the hell she would do.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Juria had seen what was in her soul daughter's mind and she actually thought redirecting this particular Shouten was a good thing. Asuna was still a little injured but she was pissed. She was also becoming obsessed herself at understanding his mind. She actually went back when Yhea was obviously still pretty young and he would have been out making mischief. Asuna could see his shadowy form and he was following Eyal. She had to admit he did look rather good but it was the Kazak Shouten Prince she was hunting. She narrowed her eyes and she allowed him to feel her aura in a short but powerful pulse. Eyal would feel it but it would be fleeting. Yhea was around her instantly and she mentally snared him and threw him against a tree. She was instantly against him and he was furious.

 

“A damn succubus.” He snapped.

 

“A damn Shouten.” She purred back.

 

“What do you want empusae?” Yhea snapped.

 

“Actually tr'Awnhi I was hunting you. I saw you chasing after the uppyr and I was curious.” She said smirking.

 

Yhea looked at her as if bored and she stared at his black eyes. He was younger looking but his ears were pierced the many times. She grew curious and she ripped open his jacket style pein-fu. He snarled in anger and sure enough his nipples were pierced along with his belly button.

 

“You Shouten seem to take great pleasure in self mutilation.” She commented.

 

“Oh please shut up on what you do not know. I am a prince and only Shouten royalty is allowed to wear such finery.” He said in retort.

 

The chain from his rings was made of a fine spun white gold and it was connected to his belly ring. She was fascinated at it. She fingered it and he hissed at it. She peered at him through her lashes and he was eyeing her.

 

“You have such a flat belly.” Asuna said.

 

Yhea saw her lick her pink, full lips and he realized this succubus had been hunting him much the same way he had been hunting the uppyr. He had no clue he had been followed and he was dumbfounded. He was always careful and it offended him that a succubus could sneak up on him. She leaned forward and pressed those full lips to his ear and breathed heavily into sculpted ear. A shudder went down his spine as she nibbled his lobe.

 

“You like the uppyr ruler?” She asked in a husky tone.

 

“I am Shouten.” He snapped out.

 

She knew what he was saying and she ripped his ku. Yhea was suddenly pissed off and he met her eyes. He was startled to see them quite red and he tried to back step.

 

“Do you not realize who I am wraith?” She asked.

 

“You seem vaguely familiar.” Yhea said annoyance.

 

“I was there that day when you accosted him at the oasis. I tasted your toxin.” She said.

 

His jaw dropped and he stared at her face. Asuna was in a really raunchy mood and she jerked on his piercings. His face contorted and she watched.

 

“Hai that is what it is for. You tr'Awnhi are just as lusty as any empusae hmm? Maec is fucking whore!” She said in his ear.

 

“How in the…?” He asked shocked.

 

“You like to feel.” She said scraping her claws over his washboard belly.

 

His face twitched and she raked her claws till she drew blood He hissed in a little pain and she slid down his body. She licked his belly with short strokes of her tongue and he was watching her lap up the blood. She spied him through her fringe of thick silver lashes and Yhea was struck dumb. He was always the aggressor. He was always the dominant one and here was a woman being wicked.

 

“Is this payback for the uppyr?” He demanded.

 

“Oh no Yhea, this is for you.” She said looking up at him.

 

He met her eyes with his own black ones and he was shocked. She growled loudly and the next thing he knew she had swallowed his member. His legs buckled as it had been unexpected. She was careful and he did not move. He did not seem to breathe either. She slowly pulled back and she had a smirk on her face. She cupped his testes and his face was impassive.

 

“I am a predator the same as you.” She said watching him.

 

“I do not hunt sexually like you woman. I do not need the act for food.” He snarled.

 

“Maybe you do not but you are still a predator nonetheless.” Asuna growled.

 

“You did not seem very taken with the uppyr ruler. Are you now perhaps?” Yhea demanded.

 

“I have become taken with this Shouten. Oh Kamis Yhea you are in need of conquering and supplication.” She said in a dangerous tone.

 

He was outraged and she bit her claws off. His eyes searched her face as she did to him what he had done to her. She slammed him down forcefully with her mental yoki and he was out of breath. She was holding him and containing so he could not phase or strike out. He was almost her equal in strength and in power but Maec in some ways surpassed her. Asuna wasted no time in slipping her fingers inside of him and he hissed at the sensation. It took her all of a moment and he moaned out loudly.

 

“What do you want of me?” He groaned out.

 

“Much.” She said in a haunting way.

 

“Oh Gods, what are you doing to me?” Yhea said unable to take a deep breath.

 

“What you intended to do to Eyal.” She purred.

 

She massaged him and Yhea was blinded literally.

 

“I wanted his soul.” He cried out.

 

“I know. You are truly Shouten are you not?” Asuna laughed softly.

 

“How do you know my name?” He managed to demand.

 

“I have deep mental abilities. There Yhea. There it is.” She said in a husky way.

 

He actually screamed as he had the most intense and riveting orgasm of his life. She pulled her fingers back and she slid up his body. His clothes were open and his pale skin glistened with sweat. She began to lick at his belly and to his chest. Yhea lifted a shaking hand to the back of her head and he was unable to make coherent thought. She slowly licked down his belly again and licked away the evidence of his release. His face contorted again and he lifted his head.

 

“Enough! No more.” He whined.

 

“I am only now just getting started Yhea. You are mine. You belong to me.” She said in a low animal like tone.

 

He gasped as he took in her appearance. Her marks were raised a little and her fangs just a little lengthened. She looked wild and untamed at the moment; she looked dangerous and deadly and she had him as if on a platter ready for serving. She lowered her mouth to his with a growl and began to take him greedily. Yhea made a snarling noise himself and tried to fight her mental hold. She relaxed it a little and he suddenly rolled them. He plundered her mouth aggressively and she took it. She began to suck on his tongue and his mind was lost in the sensations. He finally wrenched his lips from hers and stared at her face. She still looked dangerous and he had intentions of getting away from her. Asuna was in hanfu and she grabbed his hand and guided it to her silk clad thigh. The Kazak Shouten prince was feeling way too cornered and he hated it.

 

“Coward?” She asked.

 

“Excuse me?” He asked narrowing his eyes.

 

“I dare you.” She taunted.

 

“I do not want you.” Yhea scoffed.

 

“You body says otherwise. You are still rather aroused.” She said looking down.

 

“Shut up!” He snapped.

 

“Show me up Yhea. Show this simple succubus up.” Asuna sneered.

 

He grew incensed and he phased her silks away. He did the same with his own clothing and he opened her thighs; he hooked them in his elbows and slammed into her. He was stunned that she was soaking and the sensation of ecstasy hit him. She had sequestered their binding but she could not completely hide it when they were joined. Her eyes shut and her claws raked down his back. Yhea was still and he was visibly shaking as he did not move.

 

“What manner of magic is this?” He said in a quivering voice.

 

“You tell me. Move you imbecile.” Asuna growled out.

 

“No. It feels too good.” He said trying to pull back.

 

Yhea had released her legs and she wrapped them tightly around his legs. She snapped down hard with her mental yoki and he groaned under the strain. She snapped her hips against his and the young wraith was shaking.

 

“What do you get out of this succubus?” He said through clenched teeth.

 

“You! I get you.” She snarled as she yanked his lips down to hers.

 

She let one leg down and kept the other wrapped around his hip. Asuna was desperately kissing him and he could not hold out any longer. He fell into moving with her in a hurried way. Yhea was in confusion as to why this should feel this good but he became almost animalistic in his need to finish it. He cried out as she was dragging him from this plane and he was staggering.

 

“What? How?” He asked unable to comprehend.

 

She said nothing and she pulled him with her. They were reaching a crescendo when they became corporeal again and Yhea was gasping out. She was whining and crying out as she arched against him and it hit him for just a second. He had heard of the binding but it was impossible. He did not know this creature but now he intended to. An all consuming bliss blossomed between them and Yhea experienced the ultimate rapture. He yelled out as they trembled violently against the other. Asuna laid her head back and Yhea lay against her. He could not move for the moment and he was speechless. She totally released her hold on him and he grunted. She suddenly ported out and he hit the ground. He felt cheap and used for the moment and he snarled in fury.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Yhea was in Astana and he could not stand it. He had been wallowing over the uppyr ruler but now his mind was fixated on the silver haired strumpet. He had not seen her since she had ported out post coitous and it had been humiliating. He had been searching for her and he could not find one strand of her precious metal head. She had done things to him that no one had ever dared do and he had been having intense wet dreams about it since then. Raganos had actually come into his chambers asking him to shut up. He was red faced and he had phased out again looking for her. Yhea wanted to know why he craved her. He was furious at her displays and he actually caught sight of her long silver hair and he moved with incredible speed. He shoved her against a tree this time; face first. She yelled in anger and she could feel his hard body pressed into her back and she seemed to relax just a little.

 

“Now it seems I get you alone succubus. You never did tell me your name.” He whispered harshly in her ear.

 

“Asuna. My name is Asuna.” She stated with malice.

 

“You left in a hurry before I could tell you how bad you are at the act.” Yhea taunted.

 

“Please Yhea. You were telling me how good we felt together.” Asuna snorted.

 

“So what.” He growled.

 

He actually was pressing himself rather hard into her body and she could feel his erection. Asuna closed her eyes and he choked immediately.

 

“Oh Gods. What have you done to me?” He yelped in a heavy whisper.

 

“Yhea.” Asuna said in a low gasp herself.

 

His eyes rolled back and his lips sought hers. They began to kiss recklessly and with abandon. Their noises were numerous and he could not understand his own actions. He twisted her around in his arms and he lifted her up. He could not get enough of her taste he realized and he was addicted. He could feel blood ooze from the corner of his lips and he was groaning like a whore. Yhea phased them and they landed against a bed. He had no clue what possessed him but her ripped open the Chinese fashion she wore. He spread her thighs with his knee and he phased his own clothes away. He saw the look on her face and it was arousing to see the least. She was hungry and it was for him. She grabbed his white gold chain and gently pulled and he grunted softly. He fell on her and their kisses were heated and consuming them in the conflagration. His hands cupped her breasts and as his lips nipped her throat. He lightly bit along the tendons in her neck. She gasped out in the sensation as he continued to inhale her aromas and taste her flesh. Yhea was a starved man and he was determined to taste her fully. She was mewling under him as he continued to move his lips and teeth as he licked and sucked down her collar bone. He skimmed his lips down her side and her eyes were blazing. She was in shock and she knew she was going to shatter just from his touch. This was meant to familiarize himself with everything that was her. She felt fingers roll and pluck her nipples with expert ease as she continued to let him control everything. Her arousal was weeping from her center and Yhea brushed his knee against the slickness. He met her eyes and hers were full of need and promise; he had no clue what the promise was but it made him hungrier. He instantly nuzzled her neck and tasted the sweet skin just below her ear. She groaned and he lightly covered her mouth.

 

“Hush just a little. I have been on a male bender as of late. They will expect to hear male moans from this room.” He whispered heavily in her ear.

 

“Huh?” She barely managed to say.

 

“I brought you to my bed. I brought you here, I do not know why but if you know the Shouten as you seem to, then you know all about us.” He stated in a low tone in her ear.

 

He continued to lick along the tender skin and suckle her ear lobe. She muffled her groans and he was again gently rolling her nipples between his fingers.

 

“You are making me dizzy. Your body is slick and you wish to receive me. You want me and you want me desperately.” Yhea said in a husky lisp.

 

“Hai.” Asuna actually whimpered.

 

“Do you wish to torture me?” He asked in a low growl then moved his lips to hers.

 

He licked at her lips and this was truly the most provocative and mind consuming encounter with him. He was barely containing himself but he was fluid in his want and desire.

 

“Hai.” She moaned softly.

 

“Touch me as I touch you. Explore me as I explore you. Drive me mad with need to fill you over and over. I want to taste every inch of skin on this corporeal body.” He stated in a shaky voice.

 

She nipped at his lips at his fingers glided down her slick skin. His thumbs traced circles on her hips and on her thighs. He was gripped in his need to totally consume her. He again began to lightly run his tongue and she continued to tug and lightly scratch at his scalp. He made a noise against the underside of her breast and he enjoyed the feel of claws in his hair. Their bodies moved wantonly as she felt his tongue first then his teeth. He nibbled the sensitive pebble to tautness and she muffled her screams into a throw pillow. He continued to lick and then drew her tit in a deep suckle and it stole her breath. Yhea was relentless and he released it and hungrily repeated the process to her other rosy bud. This one had him growling loudly and he eyed her face. She was in ecstasy as he suckled her hard. He could taste much and it was throwing him into a manic like state. He released the tit and began to ravish her pale skin again with his lips skimming the dewy surface. He felt her body getting tense and bordering on orgasm but he did not care. He did not care if it took ten releases before he was done with what he wished. He tongued her belly button and she arched up as if offering him more of this delicious meal. He could feel her pleasure wash over her and she trembled from a powerful high. It was an amazing sight and hunger ripped through him more. He had to taste her and he spread her nether lips. Her lips were swollen and glistened with her release and his stomach clenched. He lowered his ebony head and groaned loudly against her sensitive core. Asuna was in her sea of bliss again as he fed from her orgasmic release and threw her into another one. She bit into her own wrist and blood spilled from her mouth. Yhea watched and he pulled back after several minutes. He felt drunk himself but he suddenly flipped her. Asuna was unsettled but instantly was mewling again when she felt his lips brush the back of her neck and her spine. He was rasping heavily as he ground himself against her and she felt her lip tremble.

 

“Yhea please.” She begged him.

 

“No. Not yet.” He groaned himself.

 

He moved her long silver hair and nipped her neck and sensitive ear again and again. She wanted to scream out and she was now begging him in Japanese. She wanted him so damn badly and she felt him again kiss and suckle down her back till he reached her toned backside. She was breathing heavily and he spread her open a little.

 

“Yhea what?” She asked in her pleasure dumbed brain.

 

“I am not going to hurt you. I would have already hurt you if I was going to.” He whispered softly.

 

She felt his lips and she gasped harshly. He was doing sinful and wicked things with his tongue but by the Kamis she was being thrown into bliss yet again. She was quaking as he continued to thrust his tongue and he was moaning loudly too. She was fisting his silk bed clothes and she snarled out.

 

“I cannot take anymore! Please Yhea! Damn you Shouten. I beg you wraith. Please take me. I need…” She whimpered.

 

Yhea slowly pulled back from her rounded backside and brushed his cheek against the pliant flesh. Passion and need was coursing through him and he stayed where he was. He was breathing in deeply and she snarled again.

 

“What are you waiting for?” She demanded.

 

“I hurt too.” He whispered in low moan.

 

She realized he was working his own flesh and she wanted that flesh joined with hers. She snarled louder and he looked at her with white eyes.

 

“Be quiet!” He snapped.

 

“Now!” She begged.

 

He made an impatient noise and he flipped her again. He lifted one leg against his shoulder and he eased himself into her slowly and he had to breathe very deeply lest he come undone too soon. He was hit with the purity and joy again and he stared down at her shadowed face.

 

“You need blood.” She said with her soft groan.

 

“Yes and I need you to explain and I need to understand and by the Gods I cannot think.” He said in a jumble of words.

 

She guided his mouth to her juncture and he began to drink from her as he pulled to push back with a slow timed progression. Asuna had only wished that this had been her first impression of him and this was shattering her to her very center. She was melting under the tremendous beauty and glory of this joining. She had enjoyed Yhea before but she had not felt him like this. Asuna snapped her fangs around his juncture to muffle her own noises because she was out of control. He was moving but their actions were intimate and passionate as two blood drinkers could get. He lifted his red stained lips and his eyes were smoldering black again. He attacked her mouth when she lifted hers and he buried his hands in her hair. He had phased her into Hueco Mundo and had no need to become his ether form but she was trying to drag him into it but he stayed corporeal. She was mewling softly into the intoxicating mating of tongues and he reached one hand over to grab one of hers. He grasped and squeezed her fingers in his as he began to kiss along her jaw and rasp as he continued to shift his hips. Asuna's eyes rolled back and both of them were loosing all will. Her free hand, her claws dug into his arm and scored his shoulder as he began a harder tempo at her insistent pleas.

 

“Just a little more.” She said arching her neck followed by her body.

 

“So dizzy. Gods I need too.” He rasped out.

 

Yhea slipped his hand between them and in his determination to stay corporeal, he was denying them release. She also slipped her hand with his and he watched her face. His breathing became labored as he began to rub her clit with her. He began a relentless pace within her sheath and her lips trembled. Heat and ungodly pleasure erupted and she threw her head back. Yhea pressed his forehead to her shoulder as he gasped out his cries as they shared the end of bliss and the beginning of raptures. He knew his own cries were loud but she had whined out in a howl. He realized she was of a canine nature as well and it turned him on all the more. He collapsed against her in a sweaty heap of limbs as she shook in their aftermath. He knew someone would come and she barely lifted her head and he felt something erect around his rooms.

 

“What the hell?” He managed in a whisper.

 

“Barrier. They cannot get through that.” She said running her hands through his sweat soaked hair.

 

“Who are you?” He asked sleepily.

 

“Someone who has fallen in love with your stubborn ass. You made me this way and I will not let you go. I have become the one obsessed.” She said watching him.

 

“What I feel?” Yhea asked.

 

“You tell me.” Asuna murmured.

 

“This is what a binding feels like?” He asked stunned.

 

“Perhaps or just really good sex.” She said smirking.

 

“Did you say you love me?” He asked confused.

 

“Hai. I love you. I love you and I dare you to stop me.” She said trying to get away from him.

 

“No succubus. Empusae do not love often and when they do, it is a gift. I am not stupid. Not many Shouten have the devotion of your kind. Cement it in blood.” Yhea demanded.

 

“How do I do that?” She asked watching his face.

 

He sat up and cut his wrist and he did the same to hers. She watched in fascination as he mixed their blood and said an old incantation. It meant nothing to her but he laid back and smirked.

 

“Nothing much. Gods this has been divine. I feel them trying to get in. They feel a strange presence. You will tell me nothing and you have been shielding your lovely mind but your soul is as lovely as this flesh.” He said crawling over her.

 

“Thank you.” She said meeting his gaze.

 

“So you will say nothing. You know I will crave you. I will seek you out and demand you and your body.” Yhea said flatly.

 

“Oh really?” Asuna asked with a smirk.

 

“Yes. You said you are obsessed with me but you make me that way with you. I will have you.” He said firmly.

 

She looked coyly at him and he was suddenly on her in a very inu like way. She gasped out heavily and he had guessed right.

 

“You are in part a canine daemon. This is traditional is it not? This is how you beget what your kind calls pups?” He asked in a low and sexy voice.

 

She could not think and only feel as he massaged his member deeply within her. Her mind was primitive and she was growling.

 

“Mate!” She snarled.

 

“Mate? Am I your mate?” Yhea asked.

 

“Hai.” She growled.

 

“What do you want from your mate dog daemon?” He purred.

 

“Take us. Take your bitch.” She snarled out.

 

“Gods that is sexy.” Yhea mumbled.

 

Yhea took her hard this time and she could not quiet her snarly growls or her whines as he made love to her inu style. Her Dakkasou ruined his bed and he was certain by the time she dragged another release from him that he was mad for her too.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Asuna was back in her own era and she was out of her mind exhausted. She had no idea he could be the way he was. She trembled when he looked at her and she had made him forget. She had the knowledge she conquered him and that would suffice. She entered the hospital and he was sleeping still. She went about making plans to find Amedeo and the reports were that Maec had not been found and neither had Raganos but Astana was gone. Yhea slowly woke up and he could feel her near. He was so upset he could not see straight and she was reading reports as she packed her things.

 

“What did you do?” He demanded in a harsh whisper.

 

“You asked me to leave and I did. I have only come back for my things.” She lied.

 

“Do not think me simple minded Asuna! You did a little more then that!” He yelled.

 

“Oh really Yhea? What did I do?” Asuna asked with a hand on her hip.

 

He lifted his arm and where he had cut and her mouth dropped open. She flushed and was ready to port. He suddenly pounced on her and he pushed her against the bed.

 

“You left. You left and drove me mad. This is a basic marriage right Asuna. I may have wanted Eyal at one time but I tore up the uppyr looking for YOU!” He snarled.

 

“What?” She asked.

 

“Yes. You think I did what we did with everyone? I know you think little of me but I did not make love to everyone woman. I did not allow others to touch me as you did or have.” Yhea hissed in her face.

 

“You are saying you started crap with Eyal because of me?” Asuna asked in shock.

 

“You pulled another little stunt didn't you? I remember bits and pieces. I remember taking my time and Gods the taste of you. I remember delving my tongue…” He started to say.

 

“Hush! I was there.” She said blushing.

 

“I have never done that with another. You said you loved me. I do not believe you.” He growled.

 

“I do love you. You wanted something akin to this and you have hated Lei but I am maddened when I think of you.” She admitted.

 

“Why? Because we have really amazing sex? I am not your stud Asuna and by the Gods I married myself to you. I went mad looking for my wife that I had done this with in a fit of passion. I am not that way. I am just as cunning and cruel as any tr'Awnhi, remember?” Yhea asked in anger.

 

He was angered but there was more in his face. He pressed himself to her and he suddenly hissed. He stared at her face and lifted a shaking hand to hold her jaw.

 

“What have we done?” Yhea asked in shock.

 

“What do you mean?” Asuna asked.

 

“You do not feel it?” He asked shaking in rage.

 

“No.” She said confused.

 

He took her hand and pressed it to her abdomen and it was faint but she felt it. Her mouth dropped open and he sighed.

 

“I did not want this. I did not want to raise an issue with Shan Lao. Now it is. Thank you Asuna! Thank you very much.” He ranted.

 

“You are the one that engaged my beast Yhea.” She accused.

 

“Oh my dear, it could have been one of the last ten or so times we have been together. Please.” He snorted.

 

“You swore you wished for this!” She yelled at him.

 

“What that I wanted my brother's wife? Wait you technically were my wife first! Oh you are something! You showed up and you did that! Woman you have no shame!” Yhea yelled.

 

“You wanted this!” Asuna growled.

 

Yhea lost his mind and he jerked her to him and his kiss seared her powerfully. She opened to receive his thrusting tongue and he moaned. He suddenly pulled back and stared at her shaking.

 

“Gods you have me within you. You lay there and let me do what I wished.” He said trembling.

 

“Tell me that is how you really are.” She demanded.

 

“Yes! I was maddened when I hurt you. I was furious that you should have let Lei touch you but I did not remember. You saw to it!” He said in fury.

 

Things made more sense and she was trembling too as she pulled him against her. He could not stop his invasion and she was not stopping him. He groaned out and he was loosing himself to the passion. His cheek was to hers and he panted.

 

“I hate my own brother. I hate him and you love him too. It is not natural for Shouten to do what we have done.” He said clutching her skin.

 

“You started a war with Eyal because of this?” She asked.

 

“Yes. He loved you and I hated him too. Gods, talk as I join with you. I cannot stand it.” He demanded.

 

She groaned as their clothes faded away but she eagerly let him within her. She was at the edge of the hospital bed and he was standing as she wrapped her legs around his hips. His eyes closed as he felt her as if it had been years.

 

“I will kill Maec. I will kill him if it touches you again. I want him to know that I am within you.” He said in her ear.

 

Shudders went down her spine and he clutched her tightly. Passion filled her veins as he tried to talk but moaned and grunted in her ear. Yhea was too wrapped up in the feel of her and he was desperate to quench his needs of her.

 

“Lay back.” He commanded.

 

She fell back on the mattress and his face changed. Yhea was close to loosing it and he kept himself slow and even. She arched her body a little as they continued to make love. She had to grasp his arms and she made a deep whine as she suddenly shivered in a powerful finale. He was stunned as he heard himself moan out as he fell against her. They were panting out and he was shocked deeply. He could not believe she had gone back to him when he was so young. He could not believe she had so blatantly changed his history. He could not believe she was here and that they had created something.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

It was killing him to pretend as if they were nothing. It made him furious to see Lei touch her and he was loosing his temper even worse when they talked about Maec. He had left several times in fits of anger and he decided to search for the basilisk on his own. She was shielding the pregnancy and that was giving him fits too. It seems eerie to him that she had destroyed Astana but there had been some very high costs. Nveid was dead again and her daughter was just gone. There was no sign of her Tomoshibi daughter and her daughter Hibari was slowly getting well. She was now in Britain as well and she was sitting staring out a window and her mother had to make her eat. It was tragic and Shan Lao was trying to coax her too. Hanaj was still abed after his fight with his sire and he had forbidden Asuna from binding again. He had said he was going to kill his father first and Yhea realized that Maec had made a shit load of enemies even amongst his own kin. He smirked at that idea and would lie in wait to strike out against him too. Yhea was just irritated and angry. Asuna could feel it and they were syncing their battle strategies. She suddenly appeared beside him and he jumped.

 

“Why do you do that?” He growled.

 

“Your pissiness is getting to your family.” She snapped.

 

“Shut up. You are my family! This babe in your belly is my family and that is all I shall care about!” Yhea stated.

 

“Oh now you wish for your babe?” She scoffed.

 

“Stop this!” He said shaking her.

 

She glared at him and he realized that she was in love with him. He was confused and he sighed out as he wrapped his arms around her. They were in the Land of the Living and Asuna was suddenly rigid. Yhea stared at her in confusion and she whirled around.

 

“What are you sensing?” He asked.

 

“You do not?” She asked surprised.

 

“No.” Yhea stated.

 

Asuna felt another being and it was not appearing. She was whirling around fast and Yhea was astonished he could not sense it. The former Shouten prince saw what was a black blur and then nothing but he realized she was gone.

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ///////////////

Asuna struggled like crazy and snarled like a wild inu as Fabius sat her down. He had been around awhile enjoying life but he had realized who this female was and where he had met her. He could not resist taking her. He had also taken her from the company of one the Shouten creatures.

 

“Hello again after all these years for me and how many days for you femmina?” He asked lifting her a chin.

 

“How in the Kamis name did he not sense you?” She asked astonished.

 

“It is what I wished. I wanted you to sense me and you did. You know you understand serpent's tongue; how is it a mammal understands serpent's tongue?” Fabius asked amused.

 

“I have no clue how I understand. I understand Justinus. I have come to understand Amedeo and why have you not looked for your brother?” Asuna demanded.

 

“What if I do not want him found?” He asked bluntly.

 

“You bastard!” She snarled in anger.

 

“Because you obviously love him means I should? I mean he is my brother and family loyalty aside si but I see it this way, he has something I want. Why should I hasten his return when I intend to take what I want?” Fabius asked bluntly.

 

She narrowed her eyes at him and he had her against a side of some old and ancient building. He lifted her leg and she stared at his face in anger.

 

“He had his chance with Valentina. He had our kind decimated for his cock and his heart. Perhaps I shall follow my elder brother's lead and take what I wish.” He said leaning down and licking her lips.

 

“You are seriously disturbed if you think I will allow you to touch me after this little interaction!” Asuna said in absolute fury.

 

“Has Amedeo ever used our venom on you? Knowing him he would have been too cautious with a mammal. I am not so cautious.” He said growling.

 

His arm shifted totally into a reptilian one and the smooth black scales moved. He had swiftly lifted her skirt of her flowing silk skirt and she was consumed. Her intake of breath was deep and as if she struggled for breath.

 

“I will look for him now as you deal with that lovely femmina.” He said softly kissing her mouth.

 

“What did you do?” She asked unable to see straight.

 

“Let us just say I know succubus well. Your wraith is frantic. Let me ask you something; is the amor very fantastic si?” He whispered in her ear.

 

The sensation of his warm breath in her ear made her nerves react and she damn near screamed. He chuckled as he stepped back.

 

“Sayonara is it? Goodbye for now dear sister in law. I shall look for Amedeo and Gabrielus and I shall enjoy knowing that a mere slip of skin against yours will send you in orgasmic bliss.” He said laughing.

 

Fabius shifted out and she was trying not to move. The basilisk venom was running amuck in her system and she was not seeing reality at all. Asuna stumbled forward and Yhea finally managed to find her. He made a noise as she fell in his arms and she cried out. He was concerned and confused as he phased her back to the Jing stronghold. He laid her on Lei's bed and she cried out again. It did not seem she was in pain but she her cries were numerous. Lei ran in and he stared at Yhea's back.

 

“What did you do to her?” He snarled.

 

“Not a damn thing you prick. Something grabbed her and now she is acting like this.” He said in anger.

 

Shan Lao heard the yelling and he came in. He lifted his trained nose and he was surprised to smell the venom of a basilisk. He narrowed his eyes and both of his sons were pissed.

 

“Stop! It is basilisk venom. Has she found her basilisk husband?” Shan Lao asked in his gentle way.

 

“No.” Yhea snapped.

 

Lei looked confused and he stepped back.

 

“I have never scented this before. I have never known him to use his venom on her.” Lei stated.

 

“Curious.” His father said kneeling near her.

 

Shan Lao was trying not to touch her too much because it was obvious it was overloading her nerves. She was gasping and moaning rather loudly as it was. He suddenly stared straight at Yhea but said nothing. His younger son knew and he suddenly stood up.

 

“It seems you two have this. I swore I was going to help her find him and I shall keep my word.” He said hastily.

 

“Least you could do.” Lei said under his breath.

 

“Lei stop now!” Shan Lao growled.

 

Yhea had enough and he whirled around. His fist connected perfectly with Lei's perfect nose and the older brother went down. The younger wraith stood by fuming and he stared at him. His older brother had a fuller mouth and by all Shouten standards was quite handsome. In fact Jing Lei Shi was gorgeous by all Shouten standards. Yhea looked enough like him but he felt like a mere shadow when he was next to him. Lei did not have the tr'Awnhi royal piercings that Yhea did but then Lei never had need of them he had scoffed.

 

“You are right Lei. I was a horrid jack ass but then so were you! You were guided by lies and hate the same as I was. Go ahead you arrogant fuck and continue to tell yourself you are so much better but I will give you a secret. I had her a long time ago. I had her before you even knew she existed!” He screamed.

 

Shan Lao sighed heavily and Lei's face contorted in rage. He stared at Yhea as the former prince went to phase out.

 

“You had better explain that meaning before I spill your guts right here, right now!” He said narrowing his black eyes.

 

Shan Lao stepped between his children and raised his hands. He was keeping an invisible barrier between them and Yhea stared at him with profound anger.

 

“It means I took her when I was after Eyal. You are such a simpleton. I was in Astana you idiot. I learned their games quite well.” He scoffed.

 

“Yhea be quiet!” His father snapped.

 

“Oh right Father. Of course sir. You are just as much smitten with her as Lei is. You just have enough self control. You Lei are a hypocrite. You hand your own father up so that the woman you love may become more powerful. You use your own blood to strengthen your wife. We are just as screwed up as the tr'Awnhi but at least they are honest about it!” Yhea snarled as he phased out.

 

Lei was blushing hotly but he went to his wife who was bathed in sweat and she was in another reality.

 

“What did you sense Father?” Lei demanded.

 

“Nothing of import.” Shan Lao lied.

 

“She is not here.” His son said worried.

 

“She is within her own mind son. Basilisk can defeat empusae with extreme ease. We have to find the basilisk that did this.” He sighed.

 

“Yhea is more belligerent then normal.” Lei said in anger.

 

“Things are afoot. I have no idea at all his words and perhaps we should not ask. Maec is still alive and that frightens me. Your wife channeled Yhea at Astana and we all saw the devastation.” He considered.

 

“Why should she channel him?” He said in sudden fury.

 

“Lei stop! She trusts that you will protect your own children and her other ones when they stay here. You two have that promise do you not?” Shan Lao asked.

 

“Yes and now I wish I did not make it! She is mine. I know what she had to do to free you but she is mine.” He said staring at Shan Lao.

 

“I admire your devotion but do not expect her to be what she cannot be Lei. She is what she is.” His sire stated flatly.

 

“She is what she is Father and I am a Shouten. Asuna is mine.” He snapped.

 

Shan Lao was rocked by what he had discovered and he had to find Yhea. She could channel Yhea simply because they were tied. The Jing leader was stunned at how deeply that tie went and how much Lei seemed to love her. It was shocking to him to know how much both of them used to hate her. He sighed and he knew he needed to find the basilisk and soon or she could be driven mad.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Maec's injuries were bad and he was in absolute agony as he lay upon his bed. They had moved to the palace at Balkhash because nothing remained of Astana. Raganos was in the room and he was watching his great father suffer terribly. Maec was refusing to go into a death sleep and his eldest son was tired of waiting around.

 

“Father please!” He said in a low growl.

 

“No!” Maec snarled out.

 

“Do you wish for Aunt Sanra?” He asked.

 

“Tell that cunt to rot.” Maec hissed as he rolled to his side.

 

The current king of the Kazak Shouten sighed and he walked along. It was high time he took some action and he had been cautious. He phased into Japan and he was in his true form. He had not seen her since her Danika had been hanging around and he needed to meet with the succubus but first he was going to see his in fact mate. Augusta was in the Western Palace and his heart clenched at her unreal beauty. He had to be extra careful to mask himself and she had not picked up on his presence yet. She was busy reading what seemed to be old myths and he wished to scoff. He appeared behind her and grabbed her arms painfully and phased in Hueco Mundo and the palace at Balkhash. She was furious and she turned on him in a second.

 

“Do not be stupid woman. You harm me then you harm yourself.” He scoffed.

 

“Have you not figured out how much I do not like you?” Augusta said in hatred.

 

“You never gave this a chance. You allow your loyalties to lie with a filthy dog.” Raganos sneered.

 

“I give you credit Raganos. You are a gorgeous whore. Most of the tr'Awnhi men are, are they not? Asuna tells me your own father is quite skilled with his bondage and masochism.” She said with a curled lip.

 

He smirked and he grabbed her roughly. He dragged her to see his father and Maec was in fact suffering terribly.

 

“That is what your lovely whore child did. Now I am of a mind to make you suffer for killing our child but I did that already did I not?” He hissed in her ear.

 

“Asuna did that? Good girl!” Augusta clapped.

 

Maec came to enough to see a succubus of unreal beauty. He could see his eldest son snarling in her ear and it was obvious where his obsession got her eyes from. They had the same mouth and the same lovely neck. The mother had a beauty mark near her left eye and she had long, lush ebony colored hair. Maec motioned for Raganos to bring her forward and he could see her closer.

 

“Where is your lovely child?” Maec demanded in a weak tone.

 

“No idea. She has a much bigger brood then I do. Her empusae instincts are stronger then mine.” Augusta shrugged.

 

“Why would your own child have stronger instincts then her own mother who is in fact more so then her?” he asked coughing.

 

“No idea wraith nor do I care. I am perfectly fine with loving her father and occasionally providing him a pup.” Augusta said in a snippy tone.

 

Raganos tightened his grip on her neck and Maec could see how much his own child had it for this woman. He motioned for a guard to take Augusta and Raganos was not pleased at all.

 

“You said at one time her womb is weak?” Maec asked shaking violently in a fever.

 

“Yes. Father it matters not. I only wished to make her suffer.” He said clenching his teeth.

 

“Since that Bastard was not your child and Teelis opened her thighs for my toy Shan Lao. You must have an heir just in case Raganos. Do not be stupid my boy. I need the bug. The bug is brilliant.” He said falling back.

 

“You want the one known as Nobu?” Raganos asked.

 

“Yes. I like him. He is soft spoken and does not have much to say. I like a quiet corporeal.” He said grimacing.

 

Raganos decided to fetch Nobu himself and he was in the hospital. There truly was no way to stop a Shouten from entering a place but once they became corporeal, they were just as vulnerable as any blood bag. He walked into Nobu's office and the funnel web was on the phone. He seemed upset and he was writing furiously.

 

“Tell him I will be there soon. No! If need be put her in a coma damnit!” Nobu said almost shouting.

 

The line went dead and Nobu looked confused. His hand was suddenly gripped painfully and he shouted. Raganos became corporeal and he sneered.

 

“You are needed again after what your delightful spouse did. Are you in the know?” Raganos asked snapping.

 

“I know some. To what do you refer?” Nobu asked jerking his hand back.

 

“She destroyed my palace and about killed my father. Now you are required to fix what the bitch did.” He said in a hate filled tone.

 

“I am not really of the mind to help you. Say, why not go fuck yourself?” Nobu asked.

 

Raganos reached in and his hand went transparent. Nobu's heart was clenched painfully and he gasped as the wraith king squeezed.

 

“Truly you are more useful alive but honestly I will kill you. You are a blood bag and no more bug.” He said in a sinister tone.

 

Nobu knew he would do it and he had been trying to make enough noise. Raganos phased out with him and they appeared back in Balkhash. Maec looked at him with fevered eyes and Nobu actually smiled.

 

“Keep smiling funnel web and I will see to it that your children die out permanently. Not even the empusae could save them. You have another son I am told.” Maec said coldly.

 

“You bastard!” Nobu shouted.

 

“Practical. You see the more she shows me her powers the more I am determined I will have her. Such a creature must be contained for such a creature is surely a god born into a corporeal body.” He said coughing up blood.

 

“I will help kill you!” The kumo healer said in absolute disgust.

 

“Shall I keep you here permanently? She adores you does she not? Do you have any clue what she did to secure your freedom last time? She whored herself out so that you would live. That tells me much. That tells me that you are someone very, very special to her and she will go utterly insane if something were to happen to her precious spider doctor. You should have seen her face when I said I had violated you.” Maec taunted.

 

Nobu blanched and he realized what Asuna had done. Maec had made her vulnerable and he was furious with the wraith ruler for his head games.

 

“You will die at some point you know.” Nobu said assessing the damage Asuna had wrought.

 

“You will figure a way to make me immune to that toxin her body produces.” Maec demanded.

 

“There is nothing I can do for that. It is Dakkasou; it is akin and related to hydrochloric acid idiot. Even your belly has that acid within it.” Nobu stated.

 

“I do not accept that her green toxin can have this effect on me! Not something as simple as acid will kill me!” Maec shouted.

 

“It is more then that and funnel webs are not immune to it. Silver inu are amongst the most toxic species of youkai in the world. Their toxin is the most noxious I have run across except for the Shouten but your kind's toxin is slower acting. The Dakkasou can normally eat a hole in you in minutes.” Nobu said laughing.

 

“I am so glad you enjoy this.” Maec hissed again as he sat up.

 

He grabbed Nobu's head of lush black hair and stared at his arachnid eyes.

 

“I will harm you to get to her. I will do whatever I have to. You would sacrifice yourself but not your children. You love your children and that is one of you spiders' weaknesses. You male arachnids are too easy.” Maec sneered.

 

“And you wraiths are disgusting! You have progeny everywhere and yet you can just loose one?” Nobu asked in fury.

 

“Children serve a purpose do they not Raganos?” Maec asked.

 

“Yes Father.” His eldest smirked.

 

“My own child understands. I have my favorites and it truly pissed me off when your buddy Naraku killed my Thei. Sindari also was my precious one and it really infuriates me that Hanaj has been polluted by you blood bags!” He snarled.

 

“You are sick.” The kumo healer said with sickness rising in his gut.

 

“I told you; I am pragmatic. Last time you had such a stiff upper lip and said nothing. Now heal and say nothing.” He snorted.

 

Nobu looked at the damage Asuna had done and she must have flooded Maec with every bit of poison her had body had built up. It was a testament to the wraith king's strength that he was not a pile of goo but his flesh in his physical state was rotting away. He mentally made a list of what he needed and he noticed another Shouten had come into the room.

 

“You will tell this man what you need now and he will retrieve it. If you require one of your talented children then so be it.” Maec stated with his eyes closed.

 

“I do not need my son or daughter to deal with this. I know how to heal my mate's toxin.” He snapped.

 

“How long have you been with her?” The Shouten demanded.

 

“I met her when my lord Ishin was going after Naraku. She was infectious and when she reunited the kingdom things happened.” He said tightly.

 

“I hear rumors. I hear she lived before as a spideress.” Maec prompted.

 

“Ayana.” Nobu stated annoyed.

 

“Yes that was her name. It was said that she has either reunited in soul with her past mates or she has kept the same ones. So which one are you?” He asked flatly.

 

“Nagaharu.” Kumo stated with anger.

 

“Do talk now spider. You will live a little longer.” Maec stated refusing to show his agony.

 

“Ayana was a brown funnel web and I was a black funnel web. We had one son named Gaku Jouichi.” He said tightly.

 

Maec opened his eyes and stared at Nobu curiously. The kumo healer continued to assess the nasty wound and he gave his list to the young Shouten errand boy.

 

“Your soul son was her heir.” He said intrigued.

 

“I guess you could say that. He was her oldest so it only made sense. Gaku Jouichi was also a very powerful kumo in his own right.” Nobu said in anger.

 

“Powerful hmm? Still around?” Maec asked curling his lip.

 

“No idea. He has been seen here and there.” He snapped.

 

“Interesting.” Maec stated.

 

“Right.” He said beginning to clean away the rotted flesh.

 

“Watch it you eight legged freak!” The wraith king hissed in pain.

 

“Oh I am sorry did that hurt?” Nobu asked innocently.

 

The Shouten errand boy returned shortly and Raganos watched carefully. He saw the vial of Widow and he picked it up.

 

“Give him this now.” Raganos demanded.

 

“You sure?” Nobu asked suppressing a smirk.

 

“Yes.” He growled.

 

“Okay.” He said as he plunged in a syringe.

 

Nobu proceeded to give Maec the pure Widow venom and the Shouten ruler suddenly relaxed completely. The kumo went about fixing him up and debreading the wound but he would need skin grafts and time to heal. Asuna had done a number on him and he would need at least a month to heal. In youkai terms that almost a year of what a ningen would need. He was proud as hell of his warrior mate and he had been on the phone with Jao. The Jing Clan had become quite modernized and they had become an extension of the family. His mind was buzzing and he wanted like hell to get to Asuna. She was in the midst of something and Jao had whispered that Lei and Yhea were fighting badly. Nobu knew her penchant for brothers and suspected she had taken Yhea too. Maec sat up a little and stared at Nobu with narrowed eyes.

 

“What did you do to me?” He snarled.

 

“Widow has the side effect of arousal on male Shouten. Nanami discovered it.” Nobu stated smirking.

 

“You bastard!” Maec snarled.

 

“Father?” Raganos asked.

 

“Take him to room under heavy guard! I need privacy.” He snapped.

 

Raganos dragged Nobu away and he realized he was prisoner. He sighed and he had no wish to be this particular Shouten's meal again. He was thrown into a room and left alone.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Maec was groaning as he withered on his bed. He was not in pain but in major need. Damn spider had enjoyed making him horny as hell. He refused to use Sanra at the moment and he truly wanted his obsession. He was too torn up to try and fight her but he had caught the spider's thoughts and she had tangled with something. Maec decided to take a chance and he phased out. He knew she would be with the Jing's and he was in his true form. He was fighting his horrid lust and all he wanted was to bury his face between her thighs as she screamed for him. What he found made him beyond furious and it was obvious she was in the midst of a fever. He could scent basilisk venom and he knew the stories of what the giant serpents could do to the sexual predators. He phased in and he stared down at her. He carefully picked her up and he stiffened when he felt Lei Jing in the door.

 

“You are a fool if you think you will take her.” He said in a low tone.

 

“You are a fool if you think you will stop me.” Maec stated with whitened eyes.

 

“I am half tr'Awnhi Uncle Maec. You really think I am afraid of you?” He said in heavy sarcasm.

 

“Well let me tell you of how she suffers little boy. She is trapped in her own mind and forced to endure an overload of sensations. She will eventually have no mind left to speak of. Basilisk are natural enemies of succubus and wraiths you idiot. Because they are few in number they are no issue but they can defeat us quite easily. You or your other idiots have no idea what you are doing.” Maec scoffed.

 

“You two tried to kill each other!” Lei stated with hatred.

 

“I did not try and kill her. She tried to kill me. I just want to bed her like every other Shouten does.” He said watching his nephew loose his temper.

 

Maec phased quickly and he knew right where the black basilisk king was. He would demand that he fix her and he was moving more slowly then normal. Drostan looked up from his troop reports to see the mammal and the Shouten and he rolled his eyes.

 

“You bring that thing here?” He asked in disgust.

 

“You are still torturing the basilisk?” Maec demanded.

 

“Of course. He has not died. Stupid bastard.” He said leaning back.

 

“I need him for just a moment. I will not loose this woman.” The wraith king said staring down Drostan.

 

“She is not worth all this wraith. You are a fool and living on borrowed time.” The wyvern ruler said almost amused.

 

“You let me worry about my Gods and you worry over your revenge lizard.” Maec snapped.

 

Drostan led him deep within dank caverns and they walked in. It was so cold that even Maec shivered. The basilisk had to be absolutely freezing. Amedeo was in his humanoid form and his own clothing in tatters. He stared at Drostan in hatred and his jaw dropped when he saw Asuna.

 

“One of your kind got a hold of her. I refuse to loose my obsession to your filthy scaly bastards. You will remove the toxin from her and die please.” Maec stated coldly.

 

“Asuna.” Amedeo said as his teeth chattered.

 

“Cannot be a big bad meanie without the sun can you?” The wraith asked laughing.

 

“I will help kill you si!” Amedeo said shaking violently.

 

“Oh Amedeo. Your tortures have just begun. You think this is bad?” Drostan chuckled.

 

“It matters not what I suffer. You do not have my son!” He snarled.

 

“No. Your girl here found him almost too quickly I might add wraith. You said he would not be found.” The wyvern said clicking his teeth.

 

“She had help from a rather cunning little imposter.” Maec snorted.

 

Amedeo scrambled over to Asuna as she was laid in front of him. He could scent the venom and he was enraged. He cut his own wrist and pressed it to her mouth and Maec watched curiously. Drostan was uncertain as to what he was doing and normally one would suck the venom out.

 

“Stop him wraith!” Drostan snapped.

 

Amedeo was being kept awake by magic means and it was horrid. Drostan was wearing heavy furs to keep himself warm and he was in agonies. Somehow Fabius was all over her and Amedeo was incensed. He released his venom in his blood and he released a noxious cloud around Asuna and himself. Drostan began coughing heavily and he snarled. He did not have much in the way of defenses at the moment and he was ashamed to say that he had been taken too easily. He had not fought simply because Justinus had been there. He had not thought and it had been stupid. Asuna's eyes opened and she would be able to function a little but he did not to suck the venom out. She saw his eyes and her face held sudden fury. She turned her head to stare at Maec and Drostan. Maec was not too stupid and he suddenly phased out.

 

“Coward!” Drostan snarled out loud.

 

Asuna began growling heavily and she was suddenly on Drostan snarling and spitting. Amedeo watched in anger at himself at his own stupidity. He watched his wife become her canine self and Drostan yelled out as she bit into him with her jaws. He shifted away and Asuna turned her crimson gaze to him. She turned back and staggered to him. She could feel the air and he had been imprisoned through natural means.

 

“How are they keeping you awake?” She asked stuttering.

 

“Magics I think or modern means. I have no idea. So cold femmina.” He whispered.

 

She wrapped her arms around him and she held him a moment.

 

“Where are Tekeshi and Hana?” She asked.

 

“I hid them. I told Tekeshi not to show himself until he was certain it was safe. Apparently things have been bad.” He said shivering violently.

 

“Damnit Amedeo! How could you have brought Justinus?” She asked in fury as she suddenly ported them to a Western onsen.

 

He fell into the water and he cried out in relief as his aching joints flared and pain erupted in his brain.

 

“I am sorry my femmina. I did not wish to be separated from him. Drostan showed up that day and I thought he was safer with me.” He stated biting his lip.

 

“Well you thought wrong!” She hissed.

 

“I am sorry!” He yelled.

 

“And to think your idiotic notions put Hana in danger too!” Asuna growled.

 

“I feel badly enough femmina without your mouth! Why did Fabius have his venom in you?” Amedeo demanded.

 

“I found him whilst looking for you!” She said with narrowed eyes.

 

“Lay down so I may finish getting it out. It will rebuild in your system.” He said as he waded through the hot water.

She knew what he needed to do and she laid down on the ground. Her mind was going quickly and Amedeo was furious. His brother had leached venom directly into her groin and he was shaking in anger. He sank his fangs and began drawing out the basilisk venom. He could taste her blood and it was so good to him and he had missed her so much. It seemed to take him forever to draw out the toxin and she was breathless by the time he was done. She had been mewling and groaning sweetly for him and he pulled himself out of the water. He leaned over her as she stared up at him.

 

“You let them take you as a sacrifice for our son.” She said threading her hands in his hair.

 

“Si. You have no idea of how much I love that little boy femmina. He is my life now. He is everything I want. He reminds me of you.” He said brushing her hair out of her face.

 

“Well Drostan seems quite pissed off now.” She said.

 

“I believe he is planning something big. They are working closely with the Shouten on some things.” Amedeo stated falling to his side.

 

“Maec came to take me again. Arrogant bastard.” She said with narrowed eyes.

 

“What has happened?” Amedeo demanded.

 

“Much. I will tell it all later. You need more warmth and I wish for Nobu to see you.” She said sitting up.

 

“Si.” He nodded.

 

She took his hand and ported out to Tokyo.

Augusta was looking for any route of escape and finding none. She was furious and she stiffened when she felt Raganos in the door. She turned to stare at him in anger and a smirk graced his lips.

 

“You piece of shit wraith!” She snarled.

 

“Such sentiments Augusta.” He stated as he neared her.

 

“Sesshomaru will find me and he will tear you limb from limb if I do not do it first.” She said in hatred.

 

He grabbed her wrist in a brutal hold and jerked her to him. He held her jaw in a painful grip as he stared at her mouth.

 

“I feel you often you know. I feel when you climax for the animal.” He said in a heavy breath.

 

“Know it is for him and it is often.” Augusta retorted.

 

“Will dogs like to copulate do they not?” Raganos retorted in like.

 

“So do the Shouten.” She snapped.

 

“Oh yes but we are much better at it. We are also better at servicing the likes of your kind succubus!” He stated shoving her away.

 

She made a contemptuous face and she watched him slowly and deliberately begin to remove his clothes. Augusta hated what he did to her and she also hated herself when she was near him. She had tried to be true to Sesshomaru since her indiscretions with the Byakko lord. His powers over her were complete because of what he had done to her and she backed up into the wall. He ripped open the blue silk she wore and bared her breasts. She tried to shove him off but he was in a mood. Raganos did not feel like humoring her and he wanted her to suffer. He suddenly threw her on the floor and she was ready to strike but he grabbed a handful of black hair and jerked her head back.

 

“I will have what I want Augusta.” He said harshly.

 

He had never been like this and he was tearing her apart. She screamed as his claws gouged her and he did not wait. He slammed into her roughly and she was in pain. Augusta realized he was raping her and she was attempting to fight him off.

 

“I have tried to show you feeling and love woman. Now I show you fury and pain. When I am done with you then I shall have my father show me how to separate us forever!” Raganos stated as he brutalized her.

 

Augusta only screamed once or twice until her mind shut down. She had been too used to this as a child and when he was finished he just left her there. He was disgusted with himself but he had no use for a female who acted just like Teelis. He hated the memory of his dead wife and wished he knew what she had done. He would have killed her personally and then Yhea. He walked in to check on his sire who was laid up on his bed looking peevish.

 

“The wyvern are idiots. They are useless beasts Raganos. Why in the Gods name did you make a pact with them?” He growled.

 

“At the time it seemed prudent. What happened?” He asked.

 

“They had not killed the basilisk. They were going to freeze the big lizard to death. What is with these corporeals?” He asked shaking his head.

 

“They are unoriginal. The silver haired wench?” His son asked curling his lip.

 

“Escaped with the serpent. I am in no shape to face her full on. She has some nasty abilities but she is hot.” Maec chuckled.

 

“I have given up on the mother. I will take a child from her body but I want my bond severed so that I might kill her.” Raganos stated in anger.

 

“Nveid knew how to do it. You notice he passed away and the Iyo girl did not?” His father chuckled.

 

“How is it possible? We are told it is impossible.” His eldest stated.

 

“Nothing is impossible Raganos. Never accept no and never accept the physical world. There is always something beyond. Answers can be sought and if met with resistance then seek a magical answer.” Maec shrugged.

 

“I would have never known.” He stated.

 

“Ah yes well your mother was such a good heart. She tried to keep you all away from power hungry ways as she put it.” He laughed with genuine mirth.

 

“Did she know of your desire for this female?” His son asked curiously.

 

“I kept your mother and her sister in the dark about much. Why should they know of my fantasies? They provided for my kingdom. Asuna shall provide for my appetites.” He said darkly.

 

A smirk played upon Raganos's face and he nodded. He actually wanted to see his father end up killing her. It seemed there was a lot he had never known and it seemed there was much he did not want to know.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Nobu was patching up the Western Lady and he was horrified at the brutal rape of her body. She was staring at the ceiling and she said nothing. He was gentle and she turned her light brown eyes to his.

 

“Did he?” She whispered.

 

“Hai my lady. I am so sorry.” Nobu said taking her hand.

 

“Then kill it Nobu! I do not want it!” She snarled suddenly.

 

His mouth went dry and Augusta stared at Raganos in the door.

 

“You touch her to abort my legitimate heir spider and it will be the last thing you do.” He said in a cold tone.

 

“This thing will be a monster just like you!” She hissed.

 

“You will be dead Augusta so have no worries.” He said smirking.

 

She surged up and was suddenly in front of the current wraith ruler. He grabbed her throat and her eyes were red. Maec was actually behind Raganos and he stepped into the room. Augusta was in a fury as she stared at father and son.

 

“Mother and daughter share tempers. Listen succubus and listen well, you will be given an opportunity to change your tune but if not, you can die upon the birth of this child. I will personally see to it.” He said smiling.

 

“And I will personally see to it that Asuna will lay waste to you! She is stronger then you! I met my grandmere and she is an ekimmu. I will appeal to her someway. I will rein the ancients down on you!” She snarled.

 

“Oh please! How do you think I am here? I am on the same path of evolution that your sweet girl is. I have the Gods ear stupid woman. They hear those that venerate them and offer up to them sacrifice. I unfortunately am not a Jing and I do not control the slip stream as they do but I am still Shouten and I can still traverse the eras. Odd creatures we blood drinkers are.” He said smirking as he ran fingers through her black hair.

 

She shrank back from his touch and Maec looked over at Nobu. He appraised the spider and a smile spread on his face.

 

“What do you think we give Aunt Sanra a gift?” He asked.

 

“We should not waste the healer my lord.” Raganos stated in hushed tones.

 

“Too true. She would probably kill him. Although I think I would enjoy watching as Sanra used him.” He said smiling.

 

“That is your thing.” Raganos said looking away.

 

“Yes.” Maec laughed.

 

Raganos released her throat and he suddenly left. Maec looked back and he crossed his arms.

 

“It really seems as though my boy loves you. Why I will not understand. You are very beautiful I admit but you are not her.” He said turning her jaw.

 

“You are disgusting!” Augusta hissed.

 

“Yes and vile and evil. Your lovely progeny goes on and on the same way. It is a bore really. Oh spider I think you should know that another Shouten has seen fit to take her. Perhaps you should keep better track of her.” He said sneering and then left shutting the door behind him.

 

Augusta and Nobu looked at each other as things seemed bleak.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Asuna was at the hospital and she could not fathom the stupidity of the wraiths. She could smell Raganos all over Nobu's office and Amedeo was being seen by Nanami. She called on Bihua and she increased the guard on the hospital and Sendai. She also called Yuudai to find out her mother was missing. She was fixing to loose her damn head and she was pissed off yet again. She called on the elite inu soldiers and she would start hunting them down she decided. She ported to her Tokyo penthouse and she began dressing carefully. She knew Maec was weak at the moment and she would strike now. She ported to Britain and she was looking around the mansion. She had sent Kensei a text message and begged him and the Vizards to get with Amedeo and find Tekeshi. She had said she had some hunting to do. Her mind was humming and she was grabbed by Lei. She started and she stared at him.

 

“You are jumpy.” He stated smoothing back her hair.

 

“Hai. I am sorry. Amedeo has been found and we can thank Maec for that.” She said in a nasty tone.

 

“What are you planning? I am assuming the basilisk took the venom out.” He said holding her.

 

“Hai he did. I found his half brother Fabius in the past. They apparently had a rivalry.” She said in disgust.

 

“I see. You are good at that.” Lei snorted.

 

“What is that supposed to mean?” Asuna asked in anger.

 

“Finding brothers. Do not get defensive. I have missed you and you have been running around with Yhea. I have missed my wife!” He said getting angry too.

 

“He has been assisting me Lei. He did wrong me!” She said in her rising anger.

 

“Yes he did. He wronged you terribly and he offends me!” He said cupping her face in his hands.

 

The kiss he gave her was devastating and her knees buckled. He had to hold her up as he continued to shatter her right there. Lei knew he was good with his lips and she was moaning non stop as he made her toes curl and his need evident. He wrenched his mouth from hers and he was breathing heavily in her ear.

 

“I know Yhea wants you. He does not have to say it but it is evident. He cannot have you the way I do. He never will. Perhaps we should have stayed enemies Asuna but I will make myself Naraku's friend if I must. I will ingratiate myself to those you love most and I will make myself so much apart of you that you will never be away from me.” Lei stated heavily.

 

Shivers ran down her spine and he shocked her when he lifted her up right there and sat her on a side board. They were in the in between and he only moved certain clothes. He only slid within her and he held her tightly as he continued to breathe heavily in her ear.

 

“Lei our bed.” She moaned softly.

 

“No.” He snapped harshly.

 

“Lei!” She growled.

 

“Now! This now.” Lei rasped as he moved suddenly.

 

She was breathless and her eyes rolled back. He was being his brazen self as he dominated her and took her with harsh passion. He reached up one hand and angled her jaw and claimed her mouth. He did his sinful things with his mouth while he continued to move his member within her center. The force of her completion and the suddenness of it shocked Asuna and she screamed into his mouth. He growled and continued on. She felt his aura and it was full of rage. She knew this was what Lei had wanted. He had wanted Yhea to see him take her. She groaned and he would not stop. He wrenched his lips from hers and he breathed hard.

 

“You may leave brother. I am with my wife!” Lei yelled rather loudly.

 

Yhea actually caught her eyes for a second and the anger that was reflected in his black orbs made her wince. He phased out suddenly and she tried to shove Lei off.

 

“That was cruel!” She snarled.

 

“No! It was right.” He snapped.

 

He phased them to their bedroom and he phased within her. She screamed out as it became a blur to her. She was jerking on the bed and it was a frenzy as his jealousy was being communicated. She screamed out again as she passed out.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Asuna came to and she was shaky. She was starving and she figured the least Lei could do was give up some blood. She leaned over his naked form and sank her fangs into his chest. He came awake and rested his hand on the back of her head.

 

“Love it when you do that.” He mumbled.

 

She lifted her head and stared at him in anger and lust. He smiled softly and pulled her flush.

 

“Care to share?” He grinned.

 

“Not right now. I am pissed at you.” She snapped.

 

“You will get over it.” Lei smiled.

 

“You had better be glad I like you wraith.” Asuna growled.

 

“Yes you like me. You like my body and my wiles. I know you like how I kiss you but I did not kiss you properly last night. Shall I tell you how I loved to take my male partners?” He smirked.

 

“Do tell.” She snapped.

 

He rolled them and she landed on her back and he spread her thighs. He began to nip her inner thighs and she lifted her head a little and watched as he slowly reached her center. She had to shut her eyes as he began to torture her with his rather talented tongue. Her legs shook as he continued to lick and suckle her with abandon. He slipped his elegant fingers within her and she cried out for him. He lifted his sensuous lips for a moment as she was moaning for him.

 

“This is a perfect sight. I wish Hanaj was well. I wish he could ravish your lips and breasts as I did this. I know he feels this somewhere in his death sleep so we must make you pass out again.” He grinned.

 

“Lei. Stop teasing me.” She whined.

 

“You promised me another child.” He whispered.

 

“Not good time.” She moaned.

 

“I know. Never a good time but Maec is badly injured this time. We have a plan we Jings. Say yes. Say you will give me another.” He said as he slipped another finger.

 

He was manipulating her and she was going to scream yes. He was doing to her what she had done to him when she forced their binding. He was stroking her dually and doing just enough to get her crazed.

 

“Lei please. Please.” She moaned.

 

“Just say yes my beloved. One little word.” He smirked as he kissed her belly.

 

“Wrong! You are wrong for this Shouten!” She snarled.

 

“So were you when you bound us but I shall be forever grateful. You gave me the best orgasm ever.” He smirked licentiously.

 

“Lei! Damnit please. Oh Kamis so close. Please, please!” She snarled as she broke out into a sweat.

 

“But my darling I want what I want.” Lei whispered then licked her swollen clit.

 

She groaned and he then lightly sucked on it. She began nodding emphatically and he smiled widely. He pulled back his hand and she snarled again. Lei moved up her body and peppered her glistening skin with gentle kisses as he slowly pushed into her aching center. He pulled a pillow from the other side and pushed it up under her hips. She realized dimly how serious he was and she groaned out. He made sure to keep himself slow and to rotate his hips. He wanted her to fall away and beg him. Lei wanted his wife to beg him over and over. Asuna was loosing her cohesion quickly and he was causing her inner nature forth but he knew what he was doing. Their bodies moved perfectly as his own voice was lost in soft groans. Her claws tore his back up and he gloried in it and he felt her trap his physical self. He had counted on it and he began to drive himself deeper and harder.

 

“Lei!” She said in a breathless way that made his heart nearly stop.

 

She sank her fangs into his juncture and his end was instant. She was trembling under him as she trembled in her own completion. Lei fed slowly and she felt languid and he took what he needed and fell to his back. Asuna was in shock at him and she was still trembling.

 

“You look delicious all sated. Please stay for a little while.” He murmured as he closed his eyes.

 

Asuna knew he was trying to ensure that she did indeed carry and she did wait a little while. He fell into a deep sleep and she ported to the shower. She cleaned up and she went in search of Yhea. He had been angry and betrayed when he had looked at her. He was no where to be found and she closed her eyes. She was using their binding and she knew he was in Hueco Mundo. She touched his thoughts and they were volatile. He appeared suddenly and his eyes were pure white.

 

“What?” He said in a near howl.

 

“Yhea stop please.” Asuna said trying to touch him.

 

“I know how it is between you two but to have shoved in my face? He is going to show me my place? Shall I be cruel to him Asuna? Shall I?” He said in a raised voice.

 

“No. He is being an ass. Yhea I need you right now.” She said in a soothing tone.

 

His aura was pulsing and she could feel it powerfully. She held his face between her palms and released her yoki. His eyes were still milky and she knew he was in a rage. He jerked her to him and shoved her jaw to the side. Yhea was in a rage like he was when he had harmed her. He sank his fangs so hard into her juncture as to leave a massive scar. She cried out in pain and in pleasure as copious amounts of blood spilled from the wound. Her shirt was becoming stained red with her blood and she gasped a little in pain as he released his toxin in his bite.

 

“You can do that?” She asked in sudden hurt.

 

Yhea pulled back and his eyes were black again. They were narrowed and he traced her lips with his claws.

 

“Shouten have our toxin glands in our claws and in the back of our throats. It is easier to use with our claws.” He said watching her face.

 

“What did you do?” She asked.

 

“What you did to me. I made my own mark on you and I made it visible to all Shouten. My hiebie will be tasted and scented by any other Shouten. Tell Lei to fuck himself.” Yhea said stepping back.

 

“I am the inu remember? I am the one who is supposed to mark things.” Asuna snorted.

 

“Cute. Now what is it you need my help with?” Yhea asked in a sour tone.

 

“I intend to go against Maec now.” She said flatly.

 

“Are you nuts?” He snapped.

 

“No. He is weak and he has Nobu. I would rather my kumo mate back and Raganos has my mother.” She said crossing her arms.

 

“Lei is doing what?” He asked.

 

“Sleeping.” Asuna said rolling her eyes.

 

“Oh I see. Sure. I will come and be your errand boy. I will put my life on the line so he can sleep after he made love. Do I get to play too after I am done bloodying myself?” He asked in sarcasm.

 

She slapped him and she turned on her heel. Yhea followed her and she raised her finger in an obscene gesture. A smirk graced his lips and he suddenly grabbed her hand. He sucked the finger into his mouth and swirled his tongue around it.

 

“Yhea!” She gasped.

 

He released her appendage and clutched her belly. He breathed in her ear as he did so and she was fighting her hormones.

 

“I know what he did. I have sharper senses then he does it seems. I want Maec to know your belly is full with my seed. I want Lei to know too. I want to see both of their faces when they find out. Your belly will grow full with my child and these breasts will become full for my child. I will watch as you give me exactly what I want and I will take over and over. We are bound in blood my beautiful empusae.” He said licking her lobe into his mouth.

 

She was stunned by his words and he suddenly phased them out to the second biggest palace in Kazakhstan. He looked around Balkhash with disdain and she had a smile on her face.

 

“You know them so well.” She whispered.

 

“Yes too well. Kiss me first.” He stated.

 

She turned and he crushed his lips to hers. It was heady and where Lei was just damn sinful; Yhea poured pure emotion into it. He crushed her hair in his hands and ground her body into his. She was moaning against him and he was loosing it quickly. He pulled himself back and kept his forehead pressed to hers.

 

“I will find Maec. Find your spider and your mother. You let me deal with him okay? Promise me.” He demanded.

 

“Hai.” She said absolutely breathless.

 

“Okay. Channel me but do not cripple me.” He said running his hands more through her hair.

 

“Okay.” She nodded.

 

Yhea released her and she ported out. He pulled himself together and got a cocky look on his face. He ported inside the palace and he found the biggest chambers and he phased right in. He sat on a chaise and Maec was immediately sitting up. He stared at the younger man and fury passed his features.

 

“You sorry little bastard.” The ruler said.

 

“Oh well. Did you like how I fucked her?” Yhea asked.

 

“I have done better.” Maec snorted.

 

“Oh I did much better. She begged me. Of course I am that good but then all Jings are that good.” He taunted.

 

“Oh I know Jings are that good. I had your father remember boy?” The Shouten king retorted.

 

Yhea's face clouded in anger and Maec smirked.

 

“Yes. He was sweet to plunder but then you remember the torture. I do not remember you much. You were sheltered by your whore mother.” He said watching the younger male's face.

 

“Yes, she did try to keep me from your demented self and no, she was not a whore. She only offered him relief a couple of times. I was a product of pity yes but at least I am truly a Jing and not some filthy tr'Awnhi.” Yhea said growling.

 

“Disgusting. Well I would have had you killed. I am assuming my delicious little enemy is here some where? She is all better? She sent you to play with me so she could get her spider and mommy?” Maec said sneering.

 

“I came of my own accord. You seriously think I am afraid of you?” Yhea said.

 

“You bound yourself to her so I guess I will find out.” He said.

 

The Shouten ruler appeared behind Yhea and the former prince ducked. He punched Maec in the stomach and he had to roll. He was much better then expected and he had to duck his morphed limb several times. Yhea felt a blade go through him and he looked back to see Raganos and he had not counted on his adopted father. Hate filled the current king's features as he watched the young man that he had called son fall.

 

“How dare you show yourself here pretender. Your presence offends and your blood pollutes.” Raganos said with utter contempt.

 

“Please. It was easy to dupe you idiot.” Yhea sneered.

 

Maec in the back of his mind had to agree but he crossed his arms as his son dealt with him.

 

“I guess I shall go look for my dinner now.” Maec smirked in a delighted mood.

 

Yhea actually grew a little panicked and the wound in his side was not serious and Asuna would not let it deter her. He did not have to wait long when he heard major explosions and felt horrendous yoki. He also felt himself drained and took the opportunity to grab Raganos's leg and flood him with kemuri. His former father went down and he rolled as he phased out. He appeared near Asuna and she was bloodied. He saw Maec was bloodied too.

 

“What did you do to her?” Maec snarled at Yhea.

 

“She is my wife! What do you think I have done with her?” He snapped.

 

“She is mine!” He said in a terrific snarl.

 

“Like hell I am yours. You are mine to kill.” Asuna retorted.

 

“How dare you continue to open your legs for any other Shouten.” He stated with a hoarse and dangerous tone.

 

Maec actually lost his form and became his ash form. Yhea grabbed Asuna and went to phase with her. Maec slammed him with a pillar of kemuri through several windows and he then turned to Asuna. She was showing up with small cuts and she cursed.

 

“You should not bind you stupid woman. Marry maybe but bind? You are foolish but I will fix it!” The beast stated.

 

She went to release her yoki and he grabbed her with his massive ash like hands. Pain unlike she had ever known erupted in her brain and she went to her knees. Maec halfway transformed and pulled her to his lips. Instead of a kiss; he breathed in. She fell to the ground and he stalked to Yhea. The younger man was gasping for breath as his lungs burned.

 

“I have to separate you from her or she will die. You are worthless boy and I will have you know that I will rip your spawn from her womb.” Maec stated as he phased his hand into Yhea's chest.

 

He needed the blood from the heart itself and Yhea choked. Maec had it cupped in his hand and he stalked back to Asuna. He sat her up and began a very old incantation in a dead tongue. Nveid had done the basic way to separate a bound Shouten couple. He was doing the same concept but amplifying it by magic. He made her drink the blood of Yhea's heart and he waited. When she did not expire he touched her and phased out to her spider. Yhea on the other side of the palace was in agony unlike he had ever known. The pain in his lungs and his chest was nothing compared to the void in his soul. He used what he had left of his strength and phased to his father in Britain. He fell at Shan Lao's feet and blessedly passed out.
