To say that Seto was upset or angry would be putting it mildly, Seto wasn't upset or even angry he was absolutely furious. Even that probably wouldn't go into how angry, how mad the CEO was and the cause of it was simple, the cause was that he had seen Pernia talking to one of Pegasus' former executives.
Flashback************************************************** *
Seto had been busy trying to do some damage control concerning Nikushimi's family, mainly her father, when the perfect night had gone straight to the final layer of hell.

"You have been spending a rather large amount of time with that woman," said Korbio sneering.

"What are you getting at old man?" asked Seto taking a sip of wine and raising an eyebrow at him.

"Nothing Seto-san," said Korbio smirking coldly. "I just think it would be fair to warn you that your lovely, little viper is perhaps a spy for Pegasus' company Industrial Illusions."

"What are you getting at?" asked Seto his eyes flashing dangerously at the insult directed at HIS Pernia.

"I believe that she has blinded you to what she is really like," said Korbio pointing in the direction that Pernia was in.

Seto turned and saw her talking to one of Pegasus's henchmen, the CEO of Kaiba Corps growled dangerously and muttered several curse words under his breathe and drank down the rest of his wine. He headed in the direction of the female and the other male his anger rising with every step he took, until he swore he saw red.

"Pernia," said Seto storming over to her.

"Something wrong Seto-san?" asked Pernia turning to look at him.

Seto didn't answer he just grabbed her roughly by her upper arm and started to drag her out of the room.

"Seto-san," said Pernia in shock struggling to get out of his tight grip. "What is wrong with you?!"

The former executive of Pegasus just watched them in shock. His eyes could hardly recognize Seto from the uptight young man he once had been; to the absolutely, furious man he was now.

Seto said nothing and just shoved her into the limo.
End of Flashback***********************************************
"How could you!" shouted Seto dragging her into his room once they had reached the house.

"What is wrong with you?!" shouted Pernia again trying to get out of his death grip.

"How could you talk to that bastard?!" shouted Seto throwing her onto the floor.

"What are you talking about?" asked Pernia getting to her feet and backing into a wall.

"Have you any idea what that bastard and the one he worked for did to my family!" shouted Seto.

"What are you talking about Seto-san?" asked Pernia softly taking a few steps forward.

Mokuba and Mizu were awakened by the sound of Seto's angry voice and Pernia's voice trying to figure out what the hell was going on. They crept out of their rooms and stood in the middle of the hallway looking at the door. They exchanged a look and then they stared back at the door wondering what it was they were supposed to do.

"I have never seen your brother like this," said Mizu softly her eyes transfixed on the door the couple had gone into.

"Neither have I," whispered Mokuba his face slightly pale at hearing his brother's voice raised in such a way. "Not since the whole thing with Pegasus or the thing with Noah; but that can't be it the reason because the CEO of Industrial Illusions as left us alone and Noah is deader then a doornail."

"Your brother doesn't have a problem with accepting rejection or violent jealousy does he?" asked Mizu turning her attention briefly to Mokuba.

"Well," said Mokuba slowly turning his own attention to Mizu. "I wouldn't really know about the rejection thing, since no one really as rejected him; but the jealousy thing is kinda of a big issue with him."

"I see," said Mizu softly turning back to the closed door. "What are we going to do about this?"

"We can't do anything without getting into trouble with Seto ourselves."

"I know," said Mizu sighing and rubbing her head. "I just hate seeing them like this."

"I know the feeling," said Mokuba softly wrapping a comforting arm around her.

The two of them just stood there silently and listened to the argument as it continued to get heated.

"Th at Son of a Bitch," snarled Seto storming over to her. "Kidnapped my brother with the help of my former executives and stole his soul. They also tried to take over my step-father's company! Yet you have the gaul to ask me what I AM TALKING ABOUT?!"

"Keep your voice down, before you wake up the whole damn household!" snapped Pernia.

"You are never to speak to that man again," snarled Seto.

"What the hell?!" demanded Pernia crossing her arms over her chest. "Are you telling me I can't speak to whomever I want to?"

"Yes!" shouted Seto shoving her back against the wall. "I want you to not talk to any male at anymore of the parties you go too!"

"Who the hell says I am going to anymore parties with you?!" demanded Pernia.

"You are going with me until this week is finished," growled Seto in her face.

"You can not make me do that," said Pernia.

Seto growled again and then he pulled his arm back to slap her.

"Go ahead," said Pernia holding her place. "Hit me, I dear you."

Seto glared at her and tried to calm down and slowly lowered his hand; his eyes glaring at her coldly like ice.

"I am not going to hit you," he said coldly in a soft voice. "You will attend the rest of the parties with me and you will enjoy it."

"Fuck you," spat Pernia.

Seto growled and shoved his face an inch near her own and locked eyes with her.

"Be careful what you wish for cariad," he said nudging her cheek with his nose. "You just might get more then you want."

Pernia stiffened when she felt his hands on her hips, right before they yanked her against his own hips.

"I am not afraid to take you here and now," said Seto in her ear. "After all you already pledged yourself to me years ago."

Pernia felt her breathe catch in her throat in fear that he actually would do that.

"You wouldn't rape me," said Pernia sounding unsure of herself.

"Try me," said Seto before shoving her against the wall and storming out of the room and passed Mokuba and Mizu.

Pegasus' executive watched as Seto dragged Pernia out of the ballroom and from the front door. He sighed and headed outside as well he had to tell Pegasus this. Surely his boss would find this somewhat interesting if not amusing to say the least. He headed toward the same balcony that Seto and Pernia had been on and pulled out a cell phone. He punched some numbers and waited for the other line to pick up.

"Pegasus-san?" asked the man.

"Yes," said Pegasus from the other line. "What is it?"

"I believe you will find the information I have for you very amusing to say the least," said the man.

"What do you mean?"

"It would seem that Seto-san as fallen in love."

"The boy falls into "love" every month practically," snorted Pegasus.

"No, I mean he as fallen in love, actually love."

There was a pause on the other end of the line.

"Who with?"

"Well that is the part you may or may not be too happy about."

More silence on the other line this time much, much longer. The man holding the phone began to fidget slightly.

"Pegasus-san?"

"I am still here," said Pegasus flatly. "Keep an eye on them, I don't want anything to happen to the girl. She has, she hasn't fallen in love with him as well as she?"

"I don't know," answered the man. "I couldn't tell much from the brief few minutes I saw them together; but I assume she does if the rumors going around the ball are correct."

"Definitely keep an eye on them then," said Pegasus before hanging up.

Pernia pushed herself from the wall and slowly left the room praying that the other members of the household weren't up. She froze when she saw Mokuba and Mizu standing in the hallways staring in the direction to the CEO had gone after he had gotten done yelling at her.

"What are you two doing here?" asked Pernia softly.

"What happened?" asked Mokuba.

"Nothing for you to worry about," smiled Pernia.

"We heard him yelling at you," said Mizu softly. "Why is he angry with you?"

"I guess he was jealous that I was talking to an old friend of my family's," said Pernia softly. "Go to bed you two."

"Who were you talking too?" asked Mizu.

"An old friend."

"That narrows it down."

"Bed now."

"But," began Mizu before Mokuba cut in.

"We can't go to sleep now that all that shouting as woken us up," said Mokuba.

"Well try," said Pernia. "Now.

Mokuba and Mizu exchanged a look knowing that the woman wouldn't answer anymore of their questions now, perhaps never. They slowly left the hallway and disappeared into their rooms closing the doors. After awhile Pernia entered her own room and knelt down to pet her cat.

"Niles," she whispered softly scratching his ears. "Humans are much more complex then you could ever imagine."

Seto stormed into the garage and choose a black, top of the line mustang convertible; he then peeled out of the garage and headed into town. He need to think about what had just happened between him and Pernia. He had never been so mad at a female before in his life, and to do that to the one female he actually cared for and not as an older brother was sickening almost. He sighed and quickly changed lanes heading toward the country, wanting to get out of the bright lights of the city.

He took a deep breathe and relaxed against the leather seats enjoying the feeling of the wind in his hair and the pounding American rock music. It helped him to relax whenever things were stressful at work; actually this was one of the things that helped him relax the other thing was a good woman. He flinched again remembering that he had all but threatened to rape Pernia. They had just come to realize they were past lovers and then for him to go and do that. He sighed wishing he could take it back but some part of him not wanting to or too scared to take it back.

He wasn't sure he wanted to take it back and give up his life as a bachelor. He wasn't sure he was ready now for a true commitment although in Egypt they had already been married to each other. He sighed and saw the lights of an old, run down, hole in the wall, bar on and decided to stop in for a drink.
