Saint Seiya Fan Fiction ❯ Compassion ❯ Chapter 3 ( Chapter 3 )

A/N: Thank you so much, my dear readers, for giving me the chance to reach your lives. I'm honored. Special thanks to Inensify and spiritodellagobianco for the kindness of your words. I really appreciate the time you take to comment my story.

So here it is… I hope you enjoy!

So, Shun was away with his new wife, Hyoga and Shiriu (and family) left to their respective homes, and there I was, left alone with my thoughts… Nasty thoughts that involved a certain Italian woman in a blue dress, that refused to leave me alone. It took all I have in me, and the whole morning, to gather the courage to go looking for her. It was way past noon when I started searching. Tracing her cosmo wasn't a difficult task, especially when she was training her disciples.

I sat there to watch her teach, very aware of how I was making her uncomfortable, but finding a wicked pleasure in it. Her movements were hard and unmerciful, but she couldn
