"Well?!" he demanded, shaking her slightly to get her attention. "Why didn't you tell me I was a father?!"

"You never seemed to want a child," whispered Arora pathetically. "Besides I am sure your people wouldn't be too thrilled with their king having a child with a half breed freak. Who also used to be second in command to Lady Isis who lead the Hunters against your kind and who still does!"

"My people are eager to have you seating be my side has my queen," whispered Yami, into her ear. "Besides did I not tell you at our last encounter that I wanted to have you carry my children."

"It's over Yami," said Arora flatly, jerking away from his arms and moving to get her clothing. "Get over it and move on."

Yami snarled angrily and grabbed hold of her arm, swinging her around to face him and glaring into her eyes roughly grabbing her face. "It is not over woman," he spat jerking her head to the side revealing her delicate throat to him. "You still bare my mark," he snapped running a finger down her throat where he had bitten her. "And you will continue to bare my mark until I say other wise. I guarantee my dear," he said lifting her chin up to stare into his eyes. "I will not say otherwise."

"Why not?" asked Arora, a challenge in her voice.

"Because," answered Yami, not wanting to admit the truth to her.

"Because why Yami?!" she persisted, not wanting to let the subject go.

"Because," repeated Yami, biting his lower lip deciding to let her know the truth about why he didn't want to let her go, to let them go. "Because, I love you Arora, I love you with all my heart."

"What?" whispered Arora, not believing her ears.

"I love you Arora," continued Yami getting down on his knees. "I love you with all my heart. If you leave me I will go insane and kill everything and everyone on this planet until there is only you and me left. I would give you my heart on a silver platter if you asked me too. I would give you my kingdom if it meant you would stay by my side for all eternity."

"You love me," whispered Arora, dropping to her own knees has she stared into his beautiful purple eyes.

"Yes," whispered Yami, cupping her cheek. "I am not really angry about the child I just wish you would have told me; so I could have protected you both."

Arora threw her arms around his neck and pressed her lips against his own. "I love you," whispered Arora, the moment they hit the ground. "Take me Yami. Take me now."

"With pleasure," whispered Yami, rolling them onto the ground and running his hands through her hair kissing her neck, slowly striping out of his clothing so he could join her in naked pleasure.

When it was all said and done Yami put his clothes on save for his jacket, which he wrapped around his queen, then grabbing her weapons and cradling her in his arms he took off towards the palace and to their new future.

"HE IS BRINGING HER BACK!" screamed Haria storming into the abandoned church.

"What are you talking about?" asked Nikushimi, looking up with blood dripping from her lips from the body she was straddling.

"Yami is bringing that BITCH back!" she shrieked smashing one of the stained glass mirrors.

"What did you expect? He is after all obsessed with her, not to mention he has been searching for her for the past two years now."

"I want her out of the picture and driven mad with insanity!"

"I wouldn't mind driving the pretty little half breed insane," said Nikushimi, finishing off her meal. "But our "king" would be oh so upset if we killed drove her to madness."

"Not unless we make her believe he is cheating on her," said Haria slowly. "That is after all the greatest way to get anyone with vampire blood driven to insanity is to make him or her believe his or her mate is cheating on him or her."

"You want the little girl to believe he is cheating on her with you. Correct?"

"Of course, who else? I still remember when she made me look like a fool in front of him."

Nikushimi burst into peels of laughter.

"What?!" demanded Haria.

"I can't believe it! You are in love with the king!"

"I am not in love with him!"

"Right," chuckled Nikushimi.

Nikushimi knew the other female was in love with the king she was reacting the same way Nikushimi had reacted when she found out Seto had mated and sire two children with the witch-woman Pernia. The children should have been hers and she should be the one to share Seto's bed. She snarled and snapped the head off the corpse.

"Thinking about Kaiba's wore again?" mocked Haria.

"And his brats that should have belonged to me!"

"Why not drive her insane the same way?"

"You forget she is not a vampire," scorned Nikushimi.

"Then why not create a way for Kaiba to turn her into one," said Haria.

"What good would that do?"

"She prides herself on being human," said Haria. "And Seto probably doesn't want to turn her vampire…."

"So," finished Nikushimi. "If he turns her into one she would feel betrayed."

"Now you are getting it."

The two females exchanged a cruel smirk and then they started to laugh eagerly for all the trouble they would cause.

Arora awoke to find herself wrapped in Yami's arms; she turned her body slightly and saw Yami still asleep.

"Must have tired him out," chuckled Arora, carefully slipping from his embrace. "Must have really tired him out if he didn't even feel me slipping out of his embrace."

With a sigh Arora made her way into the bathroom and slipped into the warm water that was kept warm by coals hidden deep within the palace and fed constantly by heated water spouts. She couldn't get over how good it felt to be pampered by the soft water of Yami's bath, so unlike the cold coarse water of the rivers and lakes she normally bathed in. Reaching for a rag she wiped away the dried blood and stick mess that had been their love making.

That made her stop dead and lower herself deeper into the water up to her nose. Later on after her bath she and Yami would have to seat down and talk about their future. She smiled maybe they could have another kid together. A kid that would be based more off a relationship of love then a relationship of lust. That would be nice, to raise a child with Yami. She dipped her head into the water, getting it wet before she remerged and reached for the shampoo to clean her hair of the leaves, dirt, and twigs which were immediately washed away into the drainage pipes.

When she had finished washing up she began to towel off and completely unaware of what was going on inside the bedroom she shared with Yami.

Yami awoke to pounding on his bedroom door and looked around feeling disoriented from suddenly being awakened from a deep sleep. He got up and slipped back into his pants going to open the door.

"Haria," he said in surprise watching the woman shove past him into the bedroom. The only thing he could see her wearing was a trench coat and it wasn't much of one either because it barely covered her ass. "What do you want Haria I thought I banished you from my presence two years ago for attacking my queen."

"She wasn't your queen then," corrected Haria. "She was just your whore."

"She is my queen now Haria and you will be respectful of that fact."

Haria smiled sweetly at him and moved forward hearing the girl in the bathroom getting out of the bath and making her way towards the bedroom. Haria wrapped her arms around Yami's neck and before he could respond she latched her lips onto his and took her trench coat off revealing her naked body underneath.

Arora walked into the room and froze when she saw Yami kissing a very familiar woman. She narrowed her eyes and suddenly it dawned on her that this was the same woman that had attacked her and accused her of stealing Yami two year ago.

I love you.

Those words echoed in her mind like thunder. What bullshit! All he had been telling her was bullshit! She slipped back into the bathroom and slipped into the bath again dipping her head below the water submerging herself in the water. Not wanting to come up.

Pernia was walking down the hall towards her husband's office the leather skirt clinging to her hips and thighs while her blue blouse revealed a decent amount of cleavage. She knew that had anymore been shown Seto would be furious with her for drawing the attention of other men. He would probably be angry with her anyways for the leather skirt that was just long enough to stop an inch or two below her rare.

She opened the door and slipped inside to find Nikushimi trying to seduce Seto but failing miserably.

"I would very much appreciate it if you would get your hands off my mate," said Pernia, walking over to them and shoving Nikushimi aside to kiss a non-protesting Seto on the lips.

"Pernia," said Seto, surprised but pleased to see his mate in the new outfit Mai had designed for her. "Where are our brats pet?"

"I left them with your brother and his soon to be mate," said Pernia, pressing her lips against him again forgetting that Nikushimi was there. "It will be good practice for them for later."

"Are you telling me something I don't know pet?"

"I am telling you only what I have seen in a vision," said Pernia pulling away smiling.

"How many children will they have?" asked Seto.

"That is something I can not tell you," said Pernia smiling..

"Very well," said Seto, moving back in for a kiss.

"Dear," began Pernia, pulling away from him and sniffing slightly. "Before coming to bed tonight do take a shower that smell is annoying even for a human like me."

"I planned too," smiled Seto.

"Good," said Pernia, before turning to look at Nikushimi. "Don't you have a job to do?" she asked before tuning back to her husband. "Good news love."

"Oh?"

"She's returned."

"Excellent."

A knife came out of nowhere and Pernia cried out in pain has the dagger pierced her side and blood began to seep from the wound. "Ah!" cried Pernia softly clinging to Seto has he lowered her to the floor of the office and stared down at her.

"Pernia?" he whispered, stroking her cheek gently. He became aware of a dark mist forming around her and he knew that it was death that had come to claim her. "You're dying," he whispered, not believing what he was seeing.

"I know," whispered Pernia, her hand roaming up his arm and to the back of his head pulling him down to her neck. "Do it beloved."
