Zypher: And here we are with our second myth based story. This time with Yami and Yugi. If you liked the last one, I know you will enjoy this one. Anyways, -opens the book- let's start shall we.

Disclaimer: Like I said before, I don't own Yugioh or the myth of Cupid and Psyche (that includes anything that's a part of the story) or else I'll be rich just by combining the two together.

Lovers' Fate, Jealousy's Price

Chapter 1

In a land not far away, where gods watched over the people, there was a king and queen who had two daughters and one son. The two daughters were so beautiful, no words could describe them but their son, who was the youngest of the three, leaves people breathless with his handsome beauty.

From all over the kingdom and from other kingdoms as well, tourists wander away from their daily tasks just to catch a glimpse of him. Every time he was seen, the whispers flew and so did the rumors. Some say he was like a male version of the goddess Venus. Others say he was a whole new god entirely and because he was never taken by someone as of yet, made him just as better as Venus.

Because of these rumors, Venus' temples and shrines were ignored for the people wished to see the prince more than they were to pray and care for them. And that annoyed her. Especially since no one never came to clean them, making them become nothing but ruins.

Everyday when the prince leaves the palace, he is followed by many admirers and he was always seen coming back with trinkets and flowers from his many worshippers and admirers. All this glory made the goddess Venus furious and jealous.

"Who is the mortal child that dares seduce my worshippers with just a glance? Only I am able to have such glory and enjoy their sacrifices that is left for me." she said as she paced through her throne room.

"This is ridiculous! I was the one who won the golden apple! I'm supposed to be the most beautiful person in the whole universe and no one is to take that away from me! I'll make sure this little brat is dealt with so I can have my role as most beautiful person once again! He'll wish he was as ugly as a piece of garbage when I'm done with him." she hissed, other malicious thoughts running through her mind.

At once and not a minute later, she sent for her son, Yami, the annoying brat with his dragon, Aqua, who spends most of their time breaking up marriages and ruining many people's lives with their trusty bow and arrows. (Shoulder Devil: Or with a nip on the butt from Aqua. Zypher: Will you get out of here! I'm reading! -Shoulder Devil leaves- Now, as I was saying...)

She knew they will enjoy tormenting the young prince with their tricks. "Dear, I know how much your mommy means to you," she started and that only got an amusing snort from Aqua. She gave him a wary glance.

"There's a horrid child out there that has a cult bigger than mine. I want you both to go down there and make him fall in love with the most ugly, despicable, horrid man that lives." she said, giving them each a kiss on their cheek and they soon flew off, ready to do their mother's bidding. But they don't know just what they're getting themselves into.

Back in the palace, Yugi, the young and handsome prince, was just about tired and annoyed with all the unwanted attention he was getting from random people. They always watched him but they never dare speak to him, not even to ask him out. Even the visiting kings, princes and princesses don't even talk with him.

What made him more annoyed was that his sisters have already found husbands, of royalty of course, and has moved out already. Without no one to speak to other than his parents, he became secluded, alone and depressed and began to hate the glorious beauty that he was given if it wasn't even helping him, only making things worse.

He soon fell ill and nothing, not even the presence of his parents made him feel any better. As the days go by, his father started to worry and went to the oracle of Apollo, hoping to see if this was something done by the gods' anger. He pleaded to the oracle when his dear son would find a husband or a wife that will suit him. This is what the oracle told him:

Dress up the boy for his wedding now
Take him to a mountain's lofty brow.
No mortal man will Yugi wed
Two evil beasts shall claim his bed.
This devil's winged and carries arms
Not even the gods escape their charms.
Jupiter loathes this flying blight
And Hell itself can't stand the sight.

The king, usually a calm and understanding guy, was very upset with this news of the fate of his son. But he knew he couldn't waste time brooding over Yugi's fate - the oracle had to be obeyed. Poor Yugi's wedding seemed to be more like a funeral, like everyone knew that his death was to soon come after his wedding.

The young prince was in tears and the people who always wished to watch him now stood at the edges of the streets, mourning him as the procession continued up towards the mountain.

As they were getting closer to the mountain, Yugi looked to his parents, seeing they were crying that such a fate was placed upon him. "Do not worry about me. It was too late for me anyway. I should say that you should've stopped the people when they started treating me like a god but it was too late. This is Venus' punishment for trying to take what belongs to her." Yugi said but stood proudly. "But I'm actually looking forward to meeting my husband or wife though, even if they are the destroyer of the world." he continued.

He said all of this bravely, although he wasn't really believing this himself. He marched up to the top of the hill, where his parents had to leave him and his mother started to cry, her husband holding her as he watched Yugi leave them forever.

Soon, everyone left and his parents, when they got back, locked up the palace, now dejected and sad, loosing their only son to this horrible fate while his sisters were able to marry wealthy husbands.

Yugi was now alone, sitting on the hilltop, trembling as tears spilled from his eyes. Slowly, a breeze started blowing and played with his coat before lifting him up from the ground gently and carried him to the valley below.

He was placed down delicately in a forest glade on a soft, grassy bank with flowers all abloom around him. It was so beautiful and cool here that he started to feel much better than when he was back in the palace and soon fell asleep in the soft grass.

When he woke up a few hours later, he knew he will have to get going and started walking through the forest. He soon came up to a river that was too wide for him to cross so he followed it, coming upon a wondrous palace. It was so much more beautiful than his father's, as if it was meant for a god.

The doors were wide open, as if anticipating he was coming and he was drawn to it. He walked inside and gasped at its splendor. The floors were decorated with the most wonderful mosaics and the walls, oh the walls he thought, was made from blocks of gold.

He could never imagined himself having such a wonderful place and was tempted to leave just for courtesy but he couldn't seem to leave, only explore it even more. As he looked inside each room, it was richly furnished with the best of furniture and so many treasures unimaginable was there to see.

'Or steal if someone else from outside finds out about this wonderful place.' he thought. As he continued to walk, he saw no sign of a guard or servant anywhere. Suddenly, he heard a soft, female voice speak to him and he looked everywhere to find who spoke.

"Are you surprised with what you see? This, all the treasures, even this palace, is yours. Why not go to your bedroom and rest your weary body? When you wake, a bath will be drawn and your wedding banquet shall be ready just for you." The girl said. He knew he could never resist an invitation such as this.

This glorious palace, belonging to him. It seems as if it was nothing but a dream but he knew it wasn't. He soon found his bedroom and was appaled at its sheer size. He was even more amazed to find wardrobes cluttered with beautiful clothing, and all his size no less.

He laid down on the bed, heart filled with happiness as he laid down and soon dozed off again. When he woke up later, he found he was being undressed by unseen hands and led to his waiting bath.

He was washed with so much care that he thought that they were treating him like a delicate figurine. He was out of bath soon after and dressed in a wonderful wedding coat and pants, all a royal blue and he was led down to the table where a chair stood in front of it.

He sat down and soon, the invisible servants brought in one after another delicious platter of food and he smiled with glee as he tried each platter of the wonderful smelling food, taking a sip of the wine that was left as well.

When he was done with his meal, it was taken away, once again by unseen hands and music started to play calmly through the room. It was soon joined by an invisible choir and he listen quietly, comfortable in his seat.

Once the performance was done. He thanked them for the performance and went back into his room to get ready for bed. He undressed and sliped into bed quietly, falling sleep, now at ease. He didn't know who was coming though.

A figure entered his room quietly and walked over to the large curtain that covered the bed. He removed it out of the way and looked down to the sleeping boy with a small smile on his face. 'So beautiful.' he thought as he laid down in the bed with him, being propped up by his arms.

He gently caressed Yugi's cheek and down his neck to his small shoulders. "Such a wonderful gift I have been given. No god or goddess coud give me a more wonderful being to share my bed." he said as he leaned down to kiss his cheek.

Yugi woke up slightly from the ghostly kiss and tried to see who was in his bed with him. But the figure covered his eyes gently and whispered sweet nothings into his ear, so sensually that it made Yugi shiver with rising pleasure. "Who are you?" he asked quietly, hoping that it was his husband.

"You will know in good time, little one. For now, let's spend the night together. Just you and me." he said as he caressed Yugi's cheek once more. He nodded and the figure smiled once more. "But I wish of just one request from you." he said again and Yugi wondered what it could be.

"Yes?" he questioned calmly. "I want you to keep your eyes closed during our time together. I do not want you to see me just yet." he said and Yugi nodded and the man lifted his hand, seeing Yugi's eyes were still closed.

(Zypher: This will be the start of a lemon, if you don't like then leave now cause there will be more to come)

He sat up and removed the blanket off Yugi's lithe form and almost licked his lips as seeing his wonderful body unclothed for the first time since watching him. He caressed Yugi's chest lightly, running his hands over him and gaining pleased moans from the boy underneath him.

He soon leaned down and kissed him softly on his lush pink lips and almost groaned at the young prince's sweet taste. He released him from the kiss and started placing kisses down his body, causing him to moan louder.

Yugi was in a different place of mind. This unknown person was loving like he always wanted to be. His rational mind thought this was wrong but it seemed this mysterious person was waiting for him and only him.

He wanted to open his eyes but he didn't want to ruin this glorious moment too soon by taking a glimpse of the man who he hoped was his husband and not some person that has found their way here.

The being above him continued with his teasing and taunting of his heated flesh, hand running just below where he wanted to be touched the most. Yugi pleaded softly and he complied, rubbing his thumb along the slit of his exposed and hardened erection and causing him to cry out in pleasure. "Please...more." Yugi said and he complied once more, pumping him oh so gently, relishing in the boy's pleas and moans.

When he was close to release, he let him go and Yugi whined, trying to get him to continue. "No no, little one. I have something much more in store for you." he said, with a thought, removing his own clothes as well.

Soon, the figure started preparing Yugi gently with his lubricated fingers, stopping every time he herd the boy whimper in pain When he stretched out enough to his liking, he removed his fingers and prepared himself before entering him slowly and easily so he wouldn't hurt him more than he had to.

Yugi whimpered lightly from the signs of pain he felt but it was soon gone and he lifted his arms, finding the body above him and wrapped his arms around the figure's neck. He so desperetely wanted to open his eyes but the figure only laughed each time he tried and covered his eyes before he could get a glance. "Don't worry, you will see me soon but not tonight." he said and Yugi only nodded and started to moan as he started to thrust inside of him.

The figure continued to make love with him so gently and with care, of course, until Yugi pleaded for him to go faster and hader which he did. Throughout their lovemaking, Yugi thought he heard the distinct sound of wings rustling but he thought of it to only be the curtain that was shielding this passionate scene moving. Soon enough, he cried out as he reached completion, being joined by the low tone voice of his betrothed as he felt warmth rush through him.

(Zypher: End of the scene. Now let's continue shall we)

They both panted hard, both never feeling such completion. The figure pulled out of him slowly, really wanting to stay joined with him but settled with lying down next to Yugi. Yugi opened his eyes slightly but didn't dare to turn his head for fear that this was only another dream. "That was so wonderful." he said softly.

The figure beside him nodded and leaned up slightly to kiss his cheek before covering them both up. "Yes it was and this won't be the only time we will be joined in such intimacy. I will come back again." he said and Yugi nodded as the recesses of sleep soon caught up with him and he fell into a deep sleep, smiling lightly as he felt an arm wrap around him.

The next morning, he woke up to an empty bed and sighed lightly, thinking it was all nothing but a dream. But then he remebered that the mysterious man did say he was coming back again tonight so he only hoped it was true.

He was blindly unaware, though, that someone was watching him from above, along with another. 'Do not worry my sweet boy, I am not a dream or an apparition. I will come back and hopefully when it comes for time to see both of us, you will not fear because of our rank.' he thought, white wings rustling behind him when the strap of his quiver rubbed against them lightly.

Zypher: -closes the book- And that's only the first chapter. There is three more left before this story is completely done. I hoped you enjoyed the first and is eagerly waiting for the next. See you soon.

Note: Yes, the mysterious person was Yami. Just wanted to let you know before you come trying to kill me because you thought I was making Yugi have an affair with someone that isn't Yami nor Aqua.
