CONFESSIONS

DISCLAIMER: I OWN NOTHING FROM THE YUGIOH SERIES.

The events of the past few days still haunted Seto Kaiba as he sat at his desk staring at a computer screen showing the latest dueling disk modifications. The events played out in his mind in a slow motion, each time leaving him with a sick feeling in the pit of his stomach.

"Was it fear," he thought frantically raking his fingers through his hair.

"No. No. It couldn't be. I'm not afraid of anything. I don't feel anything. This must be a trick," thought Kaiba as he shoved his chair back roughly. Kaiba stood up and walked quickly to the door of his office, unsure of exactly where he was going.

Serenity awoke with a start, staring around the room. It took her a moment to realize that the dark blue walls belonged to Seto Kaiba's room. She brought her hand to her forehead and squeezed her eyes shut as an intense wave of pain hit her.

She waited a moment before opening her eyes slowly the pain already subsiding.

"How long have I been asleep?" she wondered silently. The events of the previous days where still mostly a blur. All she could remember was shadows and words. It was then that she noticed white bandages around her wrists. Serenity barely had time to question why, as she remembered the blurry image of a man and some words.

"Looks like sleeping beauty has woken up from her slumber. Time to join the party princess."

"That man. He…He. To me," Serenity stuttered as her fingers slowly moved under her covers to her most private place. She gingerly touched the outer edges. Nothing. Then she moved her fingers slowly to the inside. Pain. Pulling her hand away quickly. Panic overtook her as she searched her mind frantically for the events of the past few days.

"The last thing I remember was Kaiba telling me that we will never be free." Her hand moved up to her neck where the cold steel of the collar still rested.

"Never be free…" her mind echoed. She shook her head gingerly as if to will the thought out of her head for the time being.

"Next…there was…um…oh yah running. And then…Pain. So much pain. Why?' She brought her hand to her head as pain once again shot through her temples.

"The collar…I was to far from Kaiba. But then more pain. And then darkness." That was all Serenity's mind would allow her to see.

Kaiba wandered around the mansion in a daze. He had no real direction for the first time in his life. He had never been this confused or angry since the times Yugi beat him. But unlike those times he didn't feel like he was missing something. Something very important. While deep in thought Kaiba hadn't noticed that he had wandered to the door leading directly into his room. The realization of where he was struck him, when he found himself reaching out to turn the door knob, opening the door and walking in. Seto was confronted with the sight of Serenity sleeping peacefully. He took in her sleeping form. Her face was obscured in shadow so his gaze wandered to her delicate fingers and up to the white bandages around her wrists. Suddenly rage overcame him. There wasn't anything he could do to that man that would ever make him feel her pain. Pushing the thought aside to be delt with later Kaiba's eyes wandered up her arms until they came to the silver collar around her neck. The anger was suddenly replaced with guilt.

"If it wasn't for me this would never have happened. You would be free to make your own choices. You would never have run from here…from me. That man would never have violated you. And you would be…happy," whispered Kaiba. Kaiba walked out of the room closing the door lightly behind him just missing the tears forming in Serenity's eyes.

"Your just as trapped as I am," whispered Serenity to the empty room.

The next few days went by quickly for both Serenity and Kaiba. Serenity had been checked and re-checked by the finest doctor's Kaiba could find, all had given her a clean bill of health. None of her memories of the ordeal had returned yet but since all of the head aches and pain where gone she found her spirits where lifting. The only evidence Serenity had besides her fragmented memories where the raised red scars around her wrists and ankles. The doctors had assured her that those would go away very soon. Despite the fact that things where looking up there was still one thing that plagued her. The fact that it had been over a week since her and Kaiba had had any physical contact of any kind. She knew that at some point very soon they would have to be together. Serenity pushed the distressing thought to the back of her mind as she entered the kitchen. She was greeted with the sight of a black hair boy with a peanut butter sandwich in his mouth a pop (soda) in one hand and a plate filled with assorted food in the other.

"Are you going to eat all of that yourself Mokuba?" asked Serenity giggling.

"No it's for Seto. He hasn't eaten in days. I bringing this to h--," his sentence trailed off when he saw the look on Serenity's face.

"What?" Asked Serenity in a sad whisper.

"Um well he has been working a lot lately and well ithinkhehasbeenworriedaboutyou? Said Mokuba quickly as he tried to back out of the kitchen and away from Serenity.

"I will take that to him," said Serenity.

"Are you sure?" Asked Mokuba suddenly very confused.

"Yes. Please Mokuba," asked Serenity.

"Sure," said Mokuba with a huge grin,

"I bet he would like to see you."

Mokuba handed her the plate of food and walked back to the refrigerator. Serenity turned to leave when she heard Mokuba's voice behind her.

"He blames himself."

She took a breath and walked out the door and to Kaiba.

"Funny," thought Mokuba as he watched Serenity leave, "I never thought anyone could make Seto change. Make him care."

Tap. Tap. Tap

"Come in," yelled Kiaba not bothering to look up from his screen. Serenity swallowed opened the door and walked in closing the door softly behind her.

"This better be important," growled Kaiba. Serenity moved tentatively towards his desk until she was standing right in front of it.

"I…I brought you some dinner," she said almost in a whisper. She took in his well defined features parting her lips slightly as she took him in. His face, his hair, his body.

Kaiba paused and looked up, directly into the eyes of Serenity. He could feel heat as his blood began to race. He wanted her. He pushed his chair back slowly and got to his feet. He made his way towards her. Her delicate hands clutched to the plate. He walked up to her so he was directly in front of her.

She has never noticed how much taller he was until he stood in front of her. His smell was intoxicating. It took every bit of self control she had to not jump on him right there and then. She looked up into those intense blue eyes causing her blood to heat as she became aroused.

"I um brought you some dinner," whispered Serenity in an attempt to quell her rising desire. She couldn't believe herself. Even after all she had been through. After how much she hated Kaiba. How much she hated herself she still wanted to fuck him. She felt sick. She was sick. She looked up at this man in front of her.

"Were these feelings real or just a product of the collar," she thought frantically. Whatever feelings I have I bet his aren't as sick and twisted. She looked down at the tray in her hands, at the red marks on her wrists and then back up into the eyes of the man standing in front of her. His icy stare penetrated her.

"The nurse said you were the one who saved me. Thank-you," she said breaking the silence.

He looked into her eyes the ones that had once held so much passion, fury and spirit. Now to him they just looked dead. She handed him the tray and headed towards the door quickly. As she reached for the handle Kaiba called out her name,

"Serenity, no I didn't save YOU, that part of you was lost the moment that man…when he…"said Seto as he turned away from her, unable to look at her anymore. All she could do was stare at him.

All of the memories can back in a rush as she sank to the floor her eyes wide with shock and her breathing coming out in gasps.

"I-I…" her voice faltered leaving her unable to continue. Seto turned around and seeing her rushed over to her, kneeling down in front of her now shaking form.

"I was so afraid. He wouldn't stop. It hurt so much. He hurt me so much. He… He…"said Serenity as she started crying. Kaiba put his arms around her trying to comfort her. Through the tears she managed to ask Kaiba one question,

"How did you find me?"

"I had a feeling, it was as if I could feel your fear, and your pain. It was if I knew where you were." She said quietly.

She spent the night wrapped in his arms, healing.

The next morning she woke up to find him watching her intently. Blushing Serenity asked,

"Why are you watching me?"

"Because I don't want to loose you again," replied Seto snuggling closer to her. Giggling Serenity kissed the tip of his nose, and looked into his deep blue eyes. Their lips inching closer and closer together until finally meeting. The kiss deepened as his hands roamed over her body lightly careful of her bruises.

"Don't worry you won't hurt me," Serenity reassured him.

"Are you sure. I mean we can wait if you're not feeling ready?" Said Seto looking into her eyes noticing a hint of the passion that had once been there had returned.

"I'm fine, don't worry." Seto leaned in to kiss her again moving her so she was on top, keeping most of his weight off of her. His hands once again roamed over her body removing all of her clothes. His touch was like fire her flesh burned with desire. She wanted him. Now!

She undid his belt and reached into his pants in one swift moment. Her one hand found its target while the other continued to remove his pants. He moaned as her fingers wrapped around his hard shaft. She started massaging it with her one hand while he worked his pants and shirt off. He bucked in her hand. Not wanting to end it then he stopped her hand.

"I want to taste you," he stated roughly as he moved down her body leaving a trail of fiery kisses. He caressed her clit with his tongue, she tasted like honey. She moaned as a wave of pleasure threatened to overcome her. His tongue continued it ministrations until she shook with a violent orgasm.

"Seto," moaned Serenity. He moved back up kissing Serenity as he positioned himself over her. He looked into her eyes one last time. She smile and nodded as he plunged into her up to the hilt. They moaned together as he moved inside her urgently.

"I need you," they thought as they rocked together. She wrapped her legs around him moaning his name as she came again her nails digging into his back. It was enough to almost push him over the edge. He slowed for a moment before picking up speed again. A few moments later they both shook in orgasm together. Exhausted Seto moved off of her and lay next to her.

She turned to him and nestled her head on his chest listening to his heart before falling asleep. He stayed awake watching her again he couldn't help feeling sorry for her. She had been dragged into this because of him.

"Your fault…" her words echoed in his mind.

"I'm sorry," he whispered to her sleeping form. "I'm sorry."

"Tisk Tisk…I knew you would go to Kaiba," came a voice from the shadows.

"Like clockwork."

"W-who's there," asked a very frightened assistant.

"Jeeze and I thought you were smart," came the voice again.

"S-sir? Is that you? What are you doing here?" asked the assistant.

"None of that's important right now. Events have already been put into motion. There's no stopping it now," said the voice.

"You told them I destroyed the only means of removing the collars already I suspect. So they find out soon. Only time will tell now… What the outcome will be," said the man before disappearing into the shadows.
