WARNING: THIS CHAPTER IS NOT SUITABLE FOR YOUNG AGES! THIS FANFIC HAS BEEN OFFICALLY RATED MATURE!

Beads of sweat drips from her forehead as the rays of the sun was harpooning into Yuya's pale skin. It was probably the hottest day in the history of Yuya's life. She never once had such difficulty in the sun before, but today was an exception. The sleeves of her yukata were tied up to her shoulders and her bottom half was folded up her thighs. She curses mentally at her demon "master" as she harvests the rice field. From the previous night, Yuya had caused Kyo to get out of his way to save her from a molester; Kyo had promised her a punishment. Yuya never thought this punishment would be so difficult and humiliating.

Flashback:

"You must be joking," she stated as she stared into Kyo's ruby orbs.

"Do I have to repeat myself? You will begin working for the sake shop starting tomorrow; it's already decided and the owners agreed to it," the demon stared back into her grass plains.

The young maiden sighed with relief. She thought Kyo would likely sell her to man for a night as her punishment; thankfully that was not the case. But, she was still curious why Kyo wanted her to work. Due to her curiosity she questioned him, "Why do I have to work? And of all places a sake shop?"

The demon growled at her question; he hated women who ask too many questions. Then he finally answered, "So troublesome. It is because we have no more money, dog face."

"What? What happen to my money in MY wallet?"

"No more questions, woman!" he snapped, "You're mouth never seem to stop yapping, does it? There will be no more questions from you for the rest of the night and that's an order from your master." With that last statement they had already reach to the door of their brothel room. He walked in and sat at the corner of the large window, holding his sword vertically from his chest. This leaved Yuya puzzled and even worried. Why would there be no more money left? She walked out of her room with plenty of money to spare; so much that it could last her a year without returning to her savings for a refill. She wonders how Kyo managed to lose all of it. She felt her wallet and it was close to being just an empty sack…

The truth was that Kyo had used it all up for his personal supplies… List: sake, women, more women, and- …more sake.

End of flashback

Yuya never accepted the fact that she was that demon's slave in the first place. She would make a stand, but she had her reasons. First, he is a monstrously huge and muscular. There was no way she could defeat him. From her last experience, he even defeated her with her gun and her daggers. Second, he was a very scary man. He is known for killing a thousand men, or more, and his head is worth more than a million ryo. Although Yuya does not show her fear, deep down, she is scared for her life. Lastly, even though she is scared of this demon, she could not help but to also feeling a warm aura when she is around him. She does not know why but, no matter how much of a threat he is, she never could find herself running from him. She feels as if her mission in life is to seek his past and indulge herself with knowledge of this demon. This feeling of her began after she was relieved to see Kyo when she was almost molested; he saved her from a dangerous man so, that demon is not all evil, is he?

But, at this moment of her life, she believes he is the devil himself to making her do such laborious work. She could feel herself feeling faint for the lack of nutrients. That morning Kyo had spent her remaining money on his daily, as he calls it, intake of morning sake. There was nothing left to purchase her breakfast and so, she went to work early in the morning with an empty stomach. One of the managers saw that she was struggling to stay conscious; He told her that she could take a small break inside the shop. At that point, that manager looks as if he was an angel and she thanked him a couple of times until the man forced her into the shop.

The place was not too big or anything spectacular. It reeked of the stinging smell of sake which would cause Yuya to scrunch her nose every now and then. She never liked the smell of it; even back in her castle when her father would drink it. The smell was too strong for her sensitive nose, so she would hide her insult by facing away from anyone in that shop. While sitting down, Yuya could not help but to listen into people's conversations. There were a couple of men who sat outside where the shop had set up available seats and tables for costumers. All Yuya could hear was them talking about women and bragging about their weapons. Also every other minute someone would bring up how close they were to death while throwing in a scar as proof. Yuya sigh and questioned if all men were like this.

Suddenly she her someone join the group, "Aren't you a brave, lad!" the voice echoes as he slap one of the men the back. Then he continues, "Killing any enemy that's blocking your rode, aye? Are you sure you are not bluffing?"

"Are you trying to tell me I'm a liar?" the bragging man replies.

"No, no!" he quickly answered. Then Yuya can sense a smirk in his words, "… though, have you ever encountered a demon?"

"A demon?" the man laugh, "There is no such thing." The three men howled with laughter, claiming that smirking man a complete lunatic.

Suddenly, the man's laughter howls above their voices combine; he stops. "He was a man… His vengeance consumed him and now the even devil has admired his darkness," the man smiled darkly. The other three grew quiet. Yuya got drawn into their conversation even deeper; she knew they were speaking of Kyo.

The man continues but now with a darker and deeper voice, "He had slain over a thousand men and the number is still increasing. It could be any of you for he is in this town."

"Heh. I never even heard of this demon you speak of," it was the voice of the same bragging man. Although he replied with such arrogance, Yuya can sense the fear within his ego covered voice.

Once again, Yuya can feel the smirk arising with that mysterious man's words, "Have you ever heard of Demon Eyes Kyo…?"

The eavesdropping girl can hear the soft gasps from each of the men's throats. They did hear of his name; how could they not? His name was on ever poster of every wanted list. His name was the one bolded in red ink… His name was the one who never left the wall of the commission boards.

"That cannot be!" the men stood up from their seats.

"Oh yes. And he's not alone." Yuya's eyes shot wide open. Her heart began rushing within each beat. He was talking about her. How did that man know? She only started to follow Kyo a few days ago; she knew she was in danger. She quickly got up, but suddenly she felt shivers down her spin as the small hairs of her back stood up. For some reason, in the back of her mind, she knows that he was purposely adding that because he knew she was listening.

The man continues, "He has captured a princess." Yuya couldn't believe her ears; that man knew more than he should. She quickly turns to talk a look of that man's face. He was smiling just like she predicted. His smile was wide and his face does not contain sharp angles like Kyo's. His was more feminine; people would have mistaken him for a woman if it was not for his muscular arms and the sword lying on the side of his hip. Catching Yuya off guard, his eyes met her and he adds, "He plans to sell her and taken the large sum of money to contribute to his joinery of vengeance," his smile grew larger and looked back at the men, "… she a virgin as well…" Blood flowed to her cheeks; this man is dangerous.

The men looked at him, wondering if they could get more information on the "princess" he was talking about. The smiling man gave them what they desired, "Oh of course. She is in this shop at the moment. Just telling you if you are interested… in a night of lust." He looks up at Yuya again while adding, "Oh I forgot to add that is very pretty."

Yuya quickly ran out at the back door, knocking away the manager that was about to get her back to work. She was scared; never in her life had she felt so harassed and embarrassed. She lived where guards surrounded her from the world which she never had thought was so ugly. At this moment, all she could think of is finding Kyo. Although she fears Kyo, she fears of that man more. That man's smile looked innocent to many, but to Yuya, it was scarier than a sword at her neck.

She trips on a tree branch and sent herself flying into the mud.

"What a nice view, Princess."

She quickly looks back into the darkness of that smiling man, while trying to pull down her yukata. "What do you want from me?" she stuttered.

"Oh, nothing… Nothing from you anyway. I'm only helping these men," pointing the same group of men at the sake shop; they caught up to the mysterious man and stood behind him. "You see they promised me that if I give you to them, they would work under my command."

The group walks closer to the mud covered blonde girl. Her pale legs where shaking, she could not find her strength to run anymore. In her mind she is screaming to herself that she can take them, but her heart knows it useless. Although she may have defeated many men in the past, she knew she cannot take on four of them all together. If they run again she knows that man will catch up in no time; it did not even look like that man broke a sweat when he caught up.

"Look how pale her skin is…"

"I can't wait to take her… she looks so curvy."

"Look at her… she is so scared… makes me even more excited."

Yuya was losing hope as she watches her legs tremble. Then she looks up into the man's smiling eyes.

"It is okay, Princess. They will take good care of you," and he covers her nose a mouth with a piece of white cloth, causing Yuya to lose consciousness.

The sky darkened and began to thunder. Kyo was in his brothel room with three naked women in his futon. His chest was bare, but still had his yukata covering his lower half of his body. He looks out into the sky and sense a huge storm was coming and he decided it was time to stock up on some sake before the rain comes. Thinking Yuya made more money in the shop, he walks in ready to take it from her. All he saw was the manager yelling at one of his workers; then he catches a glimpse of the demon.

The man walks over to Kyo and said with anger, "You're slave decided to take a break and have not returned for thirty minutes now!"

Kyo was now furious. Due to the laziness of his slave, he can no longer have his sake. Running the images of how he would punish her for missing her duty, one of the women workers came in claiming that the newbie had been kidnapped at the very end of their rice fields.

"Why didn't come to tell me earlier!" the manager screamed.

"My humble apologizes, sir! I had to run here from the farthest fields!" the women went to her knees as she bowed to them.

The manager continued screaming at the poor women and suddenly he remembered Kyo, the owner of the slave was still standing with them. "My deepest apologizes, sir," he bows at Kyo, "We will make up for that lost slave of yours. You can take any of women within this shop and a large sum of our finest sake." The truth was Kyo had thrown Yuya into the shop to work more than she gets paid. Kyo had that knowledge and told the manager that it was just a bonus for them because of their fine sake.

Kyo just looks at the man and nods. He chose the woman with the largest bust. He can see that her beauty was in no comparison of that of Yuya's. Her hair was dark brown, not a pure golden blonde. Her eyes were the color of the darkest chestnuts, not the deepest grass fields. Her skin was tanned, not a pale ice snow. Although she was beautiful as well, her beauty did not seem to amaze Kyo after of which he had already seen. The woman, by the name of Chidori, was forced to carry most of the sake, while Kyo only carried three in his left arm and one opened one in his right. While walking to his brothel room, Chidori was quiet, leaving Kyo to think of who would have kidnapped his first slave.

He stops at the front entrance of the brothel and saw a smiling man staring at him. Kyo raises his right eye brow and he knew this man means business. He harshly told his knew slave to find his room and stay in there until he comes back. She quickly nods and ran into the building.

"You have new slave already? Don't you miss the princess?" the man said while smiling.

"What do you want with her," he replied nonchalantly.

"Oh… nothing… She will be just accompanying three men tonight. Nothing outrageous," his smile widened. The man can hear the growls within Kyo's throat. Although Yuya meant nothing to Kyo, he still feels possessive of her. She is only a virgin after all, and if she loses that, her price will decrease if he had any ideas of selling her. Suddenly, it hits him; the sword, his clothing, and his smile, they all seemed too fimilar…

"Yukimura?"

"Oh you remember now?" he asks gently with sarcasm, "Should I tell you where you could find your princess before she is devoured by my hungry dogs? They are probably undressing her by now…"

"Shut that damn mouth of yours…" suddenly Kyo appears behind Yukimura with a sword against his neck, "You shall tell me or we would be seeing blood tonight."

The sky grew darker as the sounds of the storm draws near. "Patience, my friend," he laughs, "I will tell you, on one condition…"

Kyo's brow rose; what could this man be thinking when he is on the brink of death? Faster than the blink of an eye, he grabs hold of one of Kyo's sake and draws his sword, clashing with the demon's. Kyo smirks and was ready to fight, but suddenly, before he could swing his sword to attack, all he saw was a hand held up in his face, signaling him to halt. The rain began to fall heavily down onto the two men. The droplets quickly form what looks like small streams that fell from their faces. Confused, Kyo looks at the man with widen eyes.

"If you give this to me," he holds the sake up, "I'll tell you."

"…" Kyo draws his sword back.

"I'll take that as a yes."

Lighting flashes and the thunder roars in the sky, waking Yuya from her slumber. Her head was killing her and her vision was still blurry. The princess could hear that it was raining hard outside; a storm she whispers to herself. Slowly she regains her sense and she felt cold hands touching her thighs. Yuya quickly sits up only to see two of the men touching her. She opens her mouth ready to scream when a hand quickly covers it, preventing from making any noise. The man in the back of her, one hand holding her mouth tightly closed, takes his other to her right breast. She began to struggle, but she couldn't. Her arms were bound behind her back and her feet tied together. Tears began to form at the ends of her eyes as the thought of being raped appeared in her head.

"Kyo… please save me…" Yuya cries to herself.

The men began to strip her, revealing at her pale skin. Yuya can hear them whispering each other about how they were waiting for so long for this. In her view, they look as if they were drooling cows. She couldn't bear it anymore and bites hard into the man's hand, tasting the salty bitterness. The man yells with pain and punches her hard in the face. Then his buddies told him to stop it and just tie her mouth shut; they didn't want to ruin her pretty face.

One of the men started to trail kisses from her neck down her chest. She wanted to die; she rather faces death than to be taken by these men. She would even… let Kyo take her, instead of these horny cows. Now tears are streaming down her pink cheeks. She couldn't move there was no more hope left in her. She can feel the sticky saliva on the surface of her skin and hands fondling with her breasts.

"If you want her, you will have to pay."

All three of them men stopped and look back at the door. Yuya could barely see the owner of that deep voice. Her tears were block her vision, but she knew who it was already. It was Kyo. Her heart felt relief that she was there to save her. He appears behind the men and knocks them all away from the princess. The demon pulls the cloth that was tying her mouth close, letting Yuya to hiccup her sobs. Her words slowly began to form the words of thanks but were interrupted by one of the men.

"How's this much?" he throws a bag of golden coins. Then the other two contributes with four more sacks of golden coins. They fear this demon in front of them, but their hunger overpowered their fears. Yuya was petrified; how can these men can even continue when their lives are in danger?

The demons smirks and Yuya catches it. She looks up at him as he says, "Just be quick. I need to go back to catch some sleep."

Yuya turned to stone. She couldn't believe her ears. How could he say that? How could he let the men take her? It was all in slow motion to her as she sees Kyo get up to walk out to give them privacy. The men walking to her, her eyes losing its life, she thinks to herself that the she was against the world. There was no one out there that could save her now. Her last hope was Kyo and now he openly gives her up without a fight. Feeling a grip of the man's cold hand she screams in pain. Not because of his touch, but to the pain of feeling alone, all by herself. Tears rushes down her cheeks as she screams wildly. Like a mad women she struggles with every bit of her energy left. Damn Kyo for her breakfast less morning. Damn Kyo to kidnapping her. Damn him for leaving her alone. Damn that fucking demon. She cries louder as these thoughts went through her head. It was true. The mysterious smiling was speaking the truth when he said he will sell her. Why didn't she run when she had the chance? Why does she trust that demon so much…? Watching Kyo's back as he almost walks out of the room, she couldn't back down without another try.

"How could you leave me here?" she cries, "How could you…?"

Kyo stops walking.

"Please… don't leave like this…" she hiccups, "Please…"

Suddenly, Yuya felt a finger touch the entrance to her virginity. She screams at the top of her lungs, "KYO!"

Her voice was hoarse and screeching, leaving Kyo without a choice but to cut the heads off of every one of the men. "You are always so annoying," and he walks out of the room, leaving the naked Yuya covered in the men's blood. The bodies drop and fill the room with a large pool of blood. She could only stare into space as the tears still running down her cheeks. Should she be relieved? Thankful? She could not tell; she felt soulless as she stares into her hands, covered in red liquid.

"Kyo… why…?" she whispers.

The demon was not too far from the small shed. The rains drenches him as he stood outside, letting the rain wash the blood off his blade. He did not know why. He did not know the reason for saving that girl. His intentions were to give her away since the pay was more than he asked for, but when he heard his name being called like that, he could not walk away. That girl's voice made him feel as if he was letting himself burn within the fires of guilt. This was not the first time he had heard someone scream his name like this… But all those times he did not interfere. He did not save those women like he did just a few moments ago. Yuya's voice was different. It caught him by his ear and dragged him out of his prideful throne. He stands there letting the rain cool his head.

Inside, Yuya takes her blood drenched yukata and begins wear it. There was nothing else she could use to cover herself for now. As she pulls the sleeves to her arms, she can feel the cold wetness of the blood rub against her skin. She does the same to the other side of her body. After her obi was neatly done she steps to the exit. Before she could step out of the room, she falls to her knees. So much happened in one day, she couldn't take it all in. Her legs were still trembling from her fear, her anguish. She cries again, but this time no tears came out. She was out of tears…

Sakuya… you promised me you would be here whenever I needed your comfort… This moment I need your comfort the most! But you are not with me… How could you… How could you abandon me like this… I have nowhere to go… I'm so alone and by myself… Please! God, if you can hear me… just take me away… I do not care if it is by death. Just take me out of here… Sakuya… I'm sorry for speaking about you with such a tone… but if you can hear my prayers… Please save me… It hurts… It hurts…

Yuya thinks as she clutches her chest…
