AN: I am reposting the chapters in this story. Sorry if you were looking forward to another chapter. I have had so much going on. A divorce, my son being diagnosed with Autism, losing a job, starting a new job, moving, and now therapy session for my son. I am trying to get back into my stories, just don't have the joy I use to have when writing. I prefer to read much more than writing my own, though new ideas always pop up.

Chapter 2: Resentment

"You put me down, right now!" Azure screamed, kicking her legs from her position on Toguro's shoulder.

Toguro ignored her, her struggles doing nothing to loosen his hold on her. He also paid no attention to the many people just standing around outside the plane and staring at them.

"No, no. Don't put me on here, Toguro!"

He walked up the steps of the plane, quickly entering it and finding himself in the main area of the plane. Many of his men were already on board and waiting in this room. His new employer was sat down in a plush chair with a glass of wine in his hand, staring at him and Azure.

"My brother mentioned that I needed quarters for myself?"

"Oh, yeah! Just down the hall way behind you. At the end, take a right, then a left, all the way down that hallway is a room at the end. That's the main quarters here on the plane, take it."

Toguro nodded his head and started his walk for the room. Azure had gone quiet and her hands were tightly grasping his shoulders as he walked.

"Calm, Azure," he commanded as he started to hear her heavy breaths against his upper back.

"Calm, calm! You've taken me on to a plane and now your taking me to a bedroom on said plane. If you even think of touching me-!"

Azure was cut off and the breath knocked out of her as she was tossed down on to the firm mattress. She scrambled up on to the bed, her eyes frantically roaming the room, trying to place where everything was, especially the door to the room. She snapped around to look at Toguro when she heard movement, her eyes widening as she noticed he was already half dressed.

"I am starting a mission, I do not know the next time we will have time alone. I am going to take advantage of this while I can."

Her eyes frantically tracked his form as he took off his shirt. She moved back on her hands and knees as he moved towards her. She watched in increasing anger as he smirked at her retreating form.

"Stay away from me, I mean it!"

"You cannot stop me, you never have been able to."

Azure screamed out in rage and hit any available flesh as he grabbed her. In no second at all, he had her pinned to the mattress, her wrists trapped in one hand, his body positioned between her legs and pinning her down.

"Don't!"

Toguro attacked her mouth with his, silencing her screams as his free hand pushed her dress up to pool at her hips. She yelped in pain into his mouth as he snapped her underwear from her body, tearing it away from her. She closed her eyes as he released her lips from his, his lips moving to her neck and pulling pained whimpers from her lips as he sucked and nipped at the delicate skin.

She could feel the hand not restraining her caressing her hip as he rubbed up against her. It wasn't long before Toguro was guiding his cock into her entrance. He liked to slowly slide into, the head of his cock pushing in and he would rock his hips going in and going out, each time slipping a little further into her. Her noises of protest and pleas always fell on deaf ears as he slides fulling into her.

He loved to stop once he was fully in her warmth, a loud groan leaving his lips at the tight feel. Then he slid back, just the tip of his cock into her and then slammed forward. Azure couldn't move her body when he had her pinned, so all she could do was release her small cries as he slammed into her and groaned his release. Azure closed her eyes as Toguro left and came back with a cloth, cleaning up her legs and wiping him from her skin, lowering her dress for her. She felt his lips kiss her forehead and she rolled onto her side, curling up as Toguro stood up.

She felt a few tears slide down her cheeks and she buried her head in the pillow beside her. Then she did something she hadn't done in several years, in front of the man she hated no less, she broke down in hard sobs. Toguro slowly redressed himself and sighed as he listened to Azure cry. He walked to the side of her bed and bent down beside her, cradling her face in his giant hand as he tried to sooth her.

"Azure, please," Toguro whispered desperate to calm her down. "Don't do this, I can't stand to see you this way."

"You cause it," she cried, pulling away. "I hate you…"

"Oh, don't say that," Toguro whispered, his voice sad as he stared at her small form. "I love you."

Azure laughed, moving away from him as she sat up.

"You can't love," she said bitterly. "You don't have a heart."

She gasped as Toguro pulled her to him, gently kissing her swollen lips. Her eyes were wide as he pulled back and she touched her lips.

"I can love you, if you let me," he whispered and for once, Azure thought she could see such an emotion in his eyes. "Maybe you can love me."

"I cannot love you," she whispered, pulling away from him as she looked away from his heated gaze. "Not after everything you have done to me. How can I ever forgive you for taking me from my home? My family?"

Toguro sighed, turning away from her and resuming to put the rest of his clothes on and his shades. Without even looking at her, he left the room, not bothering to lock it. He knew she would go no where while on this plane, not while she feared heights.

Yusuke ran out the door, his mother yelling behind him about being late to school. He cursed to himself and his mom as he ran a few blocks towards the high school. He slowed his step, seeing a figure before him. A few feet in front of him, Hiei stopped, holding out a video tape to the detective.

"What's this?" Yusuke questioned as he took the tape.

"Your next assignment."

"Isn't that Boton's job?"

He never answered, just disappeared in a flash of black and white. Yusuke looked down at the tape and shrugged, an idea suddenly popping into his head. Kuwabara had a VCR player, maybe he won't have to go to school after all…

Ani caught up with Toguro in the hallway as he was making his way back to the bedroom Azure was in.

"Toguro, do you really plan on taking her everywhere with us?"

"I meant what I said," Toguro replied, pausing in his stride.

"What about the tournament? You know she hates such violence, you'll only make her think of you as a monster. Besides, there is bound to be someone who recognizes her, I doubt you want to take the chance that someone will run to her father and brother of her whereabouts."

"Azure's brother has been missing for years, no one can inform him. And you forget, Azure was there fifty years ago. It was how I met her, remember?"

The brothers thought back to the time that they first saw Azure. She had been walking down the stairs, two guards before her and two behind her. She had been wearing an elegant ice blue dress that swept back behind her. Her silver hair had been pulled back into a high ponytail atop her head, two long strands in the front reaching to her small waist, and when her amber eyes collided with Toguro's, he had instantly known he had to have her.

The fact that she was royalty, proven by her guards in the royal colors and the silver tiara upon her temple, didn't bother him in the least. He had to have her, and he had taken her a few weeks after first seeing her.

"But I still say someone will recognize her," Ani said, breaking Toguro from his memories of long ago.

"Then I will leave Karasu to watch over her, they seem to get along quite famously."

Ani sighed, shaking his head.

"You know that if he wasn't into men, you would never entrust him with her."

"Of course, all the more reason to leave her in the care of Karasu," Toguro stated, starting up his walk once again. "I will not have to worry about him trying to put moves on my woman."

"You haven't told her of her brother, have you?" Ani whispered, watching as Toguro paused for a moment before continuing on.

"I must see to Azure, the plane will be landing shortly. I must see that she is ready when we do."

Ani watched as his younger brother walked off, shaking his head. That woman has been nothing but trouble these last fifty years.

Toguro gently knocked on the door and after waiting a few moments and getting no response, he opened the door. He smiled as he saw Azure sleeping on her stomach, a hand under her cheek. He slowly sat down beside her form, gently stroking her hair. He had meant what he said earlier, when he told her that he loved her. He couldn't think of ever being without her. Staring at her, he knew he wanted a son. With a son, he would not have to worry over guarding a beautiful daughter.

"Azure, wake up," he whispered, gently shaking her shoulder.

He watched with a small smile as her eyes fluttered open, revealing the amber beneath.

"What is it?" She asked, slowly sitting up as she wiped the sleepiness out of her eyes.

"We will be landing shortly. I wanted to talk to you before we landed."

"About what?"

"Now that I must keep an eye on you, I wanted to warn you that you will be journeying with me and Ani to the Dark Tournament this year," he said, shaking his head as her eyes sparkled with hope. "Don't even think it. You will be staying with Karasu in the team rooms, away from anyone that might recognize you."

Azure's eyes watered.

"Then, I will never be free of you…"

Toguro growled in frustration, encircling her in his arms, trapping her against him.

"You will never be free of me," he stated angrily, tightening his arms around her. "You are mine, forever."

Tears slid down her face as she shook her head, trying to pull away from him.

"No."

Toguro released her, grabbing her beneath the chin with one hand.

"Yes," he whispered possessively, staring into her eyes, "you are."

"Never!" She shouted, pushing her hands between their bodies.

Both watched in surprise as her hands started to glow bright green and Azure watched as they shot out at Toguro, throwing him several feet from her to the side violently, crashing into the plane and making it shake. She stared at Toguro's confused form as he stood. When he glanced at her, she panicked. She scrambled from the bed, running to the door and yanking it open.

"Azure!"

She ignored his yell, running down the hallways until she came to the main room. She stopped as she stared at everyone in the room and they in turn stared at her in surprise.

"Why, the little pet has escaped her cage," Muiki laughed, flipping her blue hair over one shoulder.

Ani cursed under his breath as Azure started to glow, others stepping back at the power she emitted.

"I am sick of you," Azure whispered angrily, a green ball of energy gathering in her hands.

"Enough Azure," Toguro said as he walked into the room, taking in the scene before him.

She turned to him, a smirk on his face.

"Oh? What are you going to do?" She laughed, flexing her power. "I have my powers back, your drug has worn off after all these years."

"Drug?! I thought she was just a weak, no good demon?!"

Azure turned narrow eyes to Muiki whom gulped at her murderous expression.

"So, it surprises you to learn that I am so much more?" She questioned. "So much more powerful then you? Back in the old days, I could have even rivaled Toguro."

"But you cannot anymore."

Azure turned towards him, crying out as something sharp pierced her skin. Toguro caught her as she started to fall, throwing the needle from him.

"You bastard," Azure cursed, looking down at the puncture in her arm.

"I could not let you continue with your powers, you know that. I will risk no escape from you."

"I will never forgive you," she whispered, her eyes staring up at him with hatred and loathing. "I will hate you until my dying breath!"

Azure shivered as she walked down the hallway with Toguro, ice gathering from a cell at the end of the hall. Azure looked up as Toguro placed his long trench coat over her shoulders.

"Keep it on, for the baby," Toguro said as she moved to take it off. "You will be placed in a cell with an ice maiden while I am doing some business, I'm sure you do not want to get sick and harm the babe."

She turned away from him as they came to a stop before the cell door. She gathered the coat closer to her as she stepped into the large cell room. Across the room surround in ice, was a young ice maiden, sitting by the window and looking outside, paying them no mind. Azure turned around as the door closed behind her. Toguro stared at her before reaching between the bars to touch her.

She backed out of his reach, a small smile on her face as he clenched his fists in anger. He abruptly turned and walked away, hands in his pockets as if he didn't have a worry in the world. But he was angry, angry of her refusal of him and she was happy, for awhile at least. She had been able to keep him from touching her, this one time at least, even if it was such a small thing.

"What do the humans want with you?" Came a small voice from behind her.

Azure turned, noticing the demon staring at her. She was attractive, in an adorable way. She had short teal blue hair and red eyes, a feature so common among the ice maiden's.

"I'm not here with the humans, I belong to the big guy," she said, sweeping an elegant hand back at the retreating figure.

The woman resided her powers, the ice quickly disappearing from the room.

"He's been here before," she whispered, her eyes watching the man disappear from view.

"I heard the human say that he will use the man to torture me, to get my jewels."

"It wouldn't surprise me, he's a heartless bastard," Azure hissed, sitting down in a corner of the room, furthest from the door.

"You said you belong to him, what does he want with you?"

"Curious little thing, aren't you?" Azure said, giving the demon a small smile. "He uses me, he uses my body for his own sick pleasure," she whispered, tears coming to her eyes.

The other demon's eyes widened, her gaze turning away from Azure.

"I'm sorry," Azure whispered, wiping the tears from her cheeks. "I seem to be doing a lot of crying recently."

Tiny hands wrapped around her and Azure clenched the woman to her, like she was a life line.

"What is your name?"

"I'm Yukina."

"And I'm Azure, Azure Kurama.
