Chapter 1: When everything is about to change!

It's been exactly two months since the madness that was the incident with Bernardt ended. Things went back to the way they were after Kazuma made his appearance in our lives. Although things are back to normal, it causes a strange aching feeling in my heart – because normal isn't what I had in mind after Kazuma kissed my hair two months ago and called me his partner at this very pond I'm reminiscing at now!

It's been a week since I have seen him. Father sent him out on a special mission that I wasn't allowed to go on! I miss his presence, his crimson eyes and most of all – I miss him teasing me. What did he mean when he said I am his partner? His partner in battle? His partner in love? Either way it doesn't matter anymore, if he had any feelings for me he would have showed it by now (since he isn't shy about his feelings as the womanizer I know him to be)!

I let out a deep sigh and laid myself back on the grass by the pond. Before I knew it I fell asleep. I feel happy sleeping here, the cold breeze over my body reminds me of Kazuma. When I finally woke up I gave a quick yawn while smiling. "I assume you had a nice dream Princess"? Shock overcame my whole body and as I wanted to jump up, he pulled me back on his lap. Yes I knew that voice and the breeze that I felt in my dream. "Kazuma, what are you doing here? Let go of me bakka"! He just looked at me and gave me a crooked smile. "No Princess, not until you tell me what you were dreaming about"

"Who says I was dreaming at all Kazuma?" I couldn't tell him what I was dreaming about! It would be to embarrassing.

"For someone who wasn't dreaming, you had quite a smile and a blush on your face." He said it with the cockiest smirk on his face.

I could feel embarrassment overcoming me and with a quick reply I just said "whatever you jackass, I don't even want you here, so let go of me and go home! I don't need you to guard me in my own estate!"

Why is it that I always get like this when I'm with him?! I say I miss him and then when I'm with him in a situation like this – I become pigheaded! "I prefer you when you are sleeping Ayano!" As he let go of me, he stood up and walked towards the meeting room. "I came to see your Juugo and thought I'd surprise you in the process. There was something I wanted to talk to you about before your I told your father, but I will just speak to him instead without your consent!"

He said those words to me without looking at me and it left me speechless and I sat frozen in one place! What was it he was talking about and why would he need my consent for it?

After Kazuma left the premises my father called me to the meeting room. I had no idea that what I was about to be told could have such an effect on my daily life!
