A/N: Hello! This isn't a chapter, just the long summary and prologue to get your imagination reeling... hope it catches your interest :)
P.S. This is a little different from my other stories. There are demons now...! Yay?! Nay?!
Official Summary
Sesshoumaru Takahashi was next in line for CEO position in the world's largest business organization. Not only that, he's also the soon to be alpha king; a position given to the most powerful being in all the realms. The thing is, it is also the position that his father refuses to give him until he finds his mate.
While presidents had the whole country as his/her responsibility, the alpha king has all the dimensions to worry about. The whole demon race, trolls, wizards, witches, humans (even if they weren't aware of it) and all other spirited creatures out there all respected him. No one can and would dare defy him. Even their natural enemy, the werecats, feared him.
That is, until he met a certain sharp-tongued, sassy and sexy hazel-eyed brunette named Rin Aichi. Not only was she his mate, she was the key to his inheritance and finally take over the alpha king position.
Or so he thought.
In everyone's eyes, Rin Aichi was a mere human working as a counsellor in Sesshoumaru's brother's high school. But if you watch and observe every movements closely, you'll notice a certain grace to her; almost having similar qualities to a werecat.
When they first met, she knew she hated him. Not because of his dog blood (Heck! she wasn't even aware of mystical creatures then!) but because he was everything she loathed in a man.
He treated everyone as if he was superior. He was bossy, arrogant, and, most of all, he was a heartless playboy.
So even though he clearly shows his interest in her, she feigns disinterest and disgust towards him.
What happens when fate decides to tie these two born enemies, hot-blooded and stubborn individuals together? Will they give in to natural attraction and follow destiny or fall prey into their own thoughts and reject one another?
Prologue
"It was once said that in earlier times, everyone was connected to their other halves. 'Together, we are powerful!' They would say. So when the male, female and androgynous humans realized this, they attempted to reach the heavens and overthrow those who have so graciously served them.
The gods in heaven noticed this and protested as they informed their ruler, Zeus, of the humans' growing ego. The concerned ruler ended up giving the worst punishment ever given on earth. This punishment led to a drastic change in every creature's anatomical make-up and everyone was split in two, physically ripped apart from our soulmates.
Now, the gods are not merciless. They knew we spirited creatures had nothing to do with these despicable human beings, but to avoid future conflicts, they did what they did. But because we're innocent, the gods gave the knowledge of our so-called mates and let the humans live life never really understanding what true love is. Therefore, they spend their lives looking for their other half; filling it with pleasure in order to feel the security they once had so naturally."
"I think that's a load of bull." I remember my young, little three-year old self blurt out in the middle of class. I remember my teacher glaring at me while everyone else gave a look of disgust. Of course, I was immeditely sent home. For a school filled with demons, it was a privelege to even know about our mates, but I didn't believe it.
We weren't raised to think this way, but I have always known that love was a choice. I thought that relationships were for anyone who welcomed it. Love was for those who's ready, willing to scout around and find that one person that piques their interest.
I didn't believe in Aristophanes' theory of the other half. I didn't believe in soulmates.
It's your life, you should be the one making the decisions.
But boy, did things turn around quickly when I met her. I admit, I was a fool.
Oh, how life love to screw around and play with you. How stupid was I to think that life was that simple?
A/N: What do you think? Is it worth continuing? Yes? No? Maybe so? Please let me know and I'll surely post the first chapter soon... two weeks, the latest! :) Thanks!
