Thank you for all the favs/alerts/reviews! I love everyone~!

Chapter 3

Kanata looked at Yuki for a grim moment and smiled out of his own inner misery contorting him slowly. He was mentally debating whether he should tell him or not. He had been putting up quite an effort to avoid from the talking about past for a long time and now he had to confront it.

Just when Yuki was about to say it was alright not to tell him if Kanata was uncomfortable with mentioning the past, Kanata's voice leaked out to interrupt him.

"She was smart and beautiful. I loved her, but it was unrequited. Her heart was taken away by another God; he was a good friend of mine too. He made her his Goddess and now we try to keep ourselves distanced. I guess fate didn't want me and her to be together." Kanata sighed and got up to pour himself a cup of wine.

Yuki only could watch him gulp down the liquid. Kanata licked his lips disdainfully and gulped down the whole bottle instead of pouring himself another small cup. Yuki was a bit astounded and the result was quite amusing. Kanata's cheeks were bright red and he looked pretty drunk. His long hair suddenly changed length, back to its shoulder length.

"I spent a decade trying to make her love me, but it was no use. She wanted someone better…I just hope she's happy…if only I can see her now…" Kanata mumbled in a slight slur.

Kanata staggered away from the room, leaving Yuki watching his slumped back. Kanata turned when he reached a corner and completely disappeared out of Yuki's line of sight.

Somehow that was rather an awkward exit. Yuki felt sympathetic towards the man. Who would've thought that a woman could leave such an impact on a man like him?

Yuki was quite curious now, so he got up and tried to follow where Kanata staggered off. It didn't take long to find the drunken man on the floor. Yuki gasped and ran over to the slumped body. Apparently, Kanata couldn't make it to his own room without passing out in a drunken haze.

Yuki examined the muttering Kanata on the floor. He sighed and gathered up all his youthful strength to drag the man over to his bedroom. Yuki pushed open the door to the room Kanata was slumped in front. It was indeed the man's bedroom, because it was nicely decorated with flower paintings and designs. But it was also cold…Yuki shivered a bit from the chill that blew in his face when he stood in front of it for a few seconds.

Kanata was surprisingly easy to drag over. His height made Yuki assume he would have a real hard time to drag over. But Yuki got the job easily done and he sat beside the sleeping body. He was about to get up and leave, but Kanata held on to Yuki's robe sleeve.

"Y…mi…" Kanata murmured in his sleep. His attempted to open his eyes, but he just couldn't. Yuki didn't know he called his name or not…but he stayed anyway. The bed was big enough for two people, so Yuki lied down next to Kanata.

"I'm here…" Yuki whispered soothingly. He could see Kanata's lips form into a small smile after he heard those two reassuring words.

He stared at Kanata's dozing face for a while.

Yuki started to wonder…how long did Kanata spent his time alone in this realm? He felt colder and colder…until all his senses numbed and his eyelids slowly waltzed down to their meeting surface.

"Ah!" Yuki moaned and he arched his back as he felt a sharp pain tore through his pelvis. He wanted to open his eyes, but he just couldn't find the strength to…

Another sensation tore through his body this time…it was pleasure. Yuki could feel all his senses tremble, and his body relished this feeling. He could hear panting…his own and someone else's. Then an image flashed before his eyes…two bodies entangled they were connected… Kanata's and his?

Yuki couldn't bare the thought…the person who was relieving him was now raping him? It was all too bizarre…

Yuki gasped and he could feel cold sweat trickle down his skin. He was awake and still next to Kanata. They were both clothed and Kanata was still sleeping. Was that a nightmare?

'Yes! It has to be!' Yuki mentally screamed to himself. His heart was pounding and he felt like he would go insane any moment now or later…

Somehow the air in Kanata's bedroom didn't feel so cold. Yuki sat up, feeling a bit sore. His hair was a mess and his robe was wrinkly. He silently exited the room and roamed around the big house.

It was morning already…how long did Yuki sleep for anyway? Time seem to pass by pretty slow and pretty fast at the same time…

"Hm?" Kanata woke up and he groaned a bit from the after effects of alcohol. Being an Ice God didn't make him immune to such effects. He got out of bed and stripped off his robe to replace it with a fresh clean one. This time it was a rather darker blue robe with a long flowing sash holding it together. His body smelled like fresh viburnums, it was from bathing in the springs.

He sighed, exhausted and feeling the cool air on his skin didn't make him feel any better. Every time he mentions his previous bride to somebody for too long, he just had to resolve in drowning his sorrows with alcohol afterwards. He rubbed a strand of his hair in between his fingertips while examining himself in his vanity mirror.

He looked perfectly fine, and he turned around to inspect his pale hand. Kanata was debating if he should wrap himself up soon.

The whole white wrap habit was for preserving his energy from overflowing because he had no one to share it with. That's why he needed a wife, a human to make him/her his goddess. If he had too much energy, he would go…crazy and probably go unconscious for a few days doing extreme deeds. He was unsure if he should share his energy with Yuki, but that would require…him and Yuki doing the mating ritual. Kanata felt himself choke abruptly after even having that thought. He regained composure and tried to clear the vulgar thought away.

"Hm…" Kanata hummed to himself, he was waiting for something because he could sense a lurking presence of a snow nymph.

"Kanata, there's something that you need to know…" A female voice rang in his ears and he turned around seeing a snow nymph there.

Kanata nodded giving her the signal that he was ready for today's news.

"Well…Takashiro is own his way." Well, that was indeed a surprise. It has been years since Kanata even talked to his 'friend'. Kanata folded his arms and contemplated for a moment in discomfort.

"Is he bringing over Yomi?" Kanata asked. The snow nymph shook her head and he felt relief. "That's good. If it's Takashiro, I can take him on." Kanata said with a pleased smirk.

"Well, that's all. Do you require anything else?" The snow nymph asked politely.

"Yes, say hello to your sister, please. That's all." Kanata dismissed and the snow nymph disappeared into a snow mist.

A flaming chariot arrived in front of Kanata in a flash when he was out in the East garden grounds.

His expression became emotionless when he saw Takashiro come out. His good ole friend Takashiro was always wearing red or something that resembles his element...fire. He was a total opposite of himself.

Takashiro's realm wasn't as isolated as Kanata's. There were actually other nymphs and Gods living in Takashiro's world. On the other hand, Kanata had only his snow nymphs who usually don't show their faces unless called upon and now he had Yuki.

"Reiga, it's good to see again!" Kanata grimaced seeing the mature radiant being approach him. He referred to himself as Kanata because that's was his name when he didn't have a wife. It was almost like a maiden's name for him. Every God had a maiden name, but Kanata already forgotten what Takashiro's maiden name was already. Takashiro would call him Reiga despite it being improper. Who cares?

"Yes…I suppose. What brings you here?" Kanata asked with a slight uneasiness in his tone. Takashiro smirked and Kanata caught it with suspicion.

"Why, to see you of course. Unless…you wanted to see Yomi instead of me?" Takashiro said nonchalantly.

"No, it would only make matters worse. How long do you intend to stay?" Kanata inquired curtly.

"Hm…depending." Takashiro said. Kanata furrowed his brows and turned around towards his big house.

"Alright then, I guess I shouldn't make you wait any longer out here." Kanata said and he turned on his heel to lead away. Takashiro followed behind, and he sensed a foreign presence lurking in one of the rooms.

Kanata let him settle down and he tried to lighten the air with his own empty thoughts because that's all he could muster in his head.

"So, did you find yourself a new bride?" Takashiro asked. He was already lounging on a seat on the opposite side of Kanata, whom was sitting in a complete solemn manner.

"Well, no." Kanata said. He wasn't sure if he would consider Yuki his bride.

"Oh, that's a pity…" He could sense the mockery in Takashiro's tone. Then the tension continued on between them and a wandering Yuki was about to approach the main room. Fortunately, he was whisked away by a snow nymph.

"Wha-!" Yuki was abruptly cut off by the snow nymph's silence spell. She gently landed on top of the roof and released Yuki from her grip.

Yuki was completely startled and almost tripped from stepping away from the beautiful snow nymph. She let out a small amused giggle, before crossing her arms and pointing out to Yuki.

"You! Stand still!" She flicked her index finger and ice started hold on his feet to immobilize Yuki's movements. She smiled; pleased with how easy she was able to use magic on the human.

"So, I know you have some questions running around your brain…like, who I am…well, I shall tell you. My name is Daphne. I'm a snow nymph and a subordinate of Kanata. He's busy, so please don't go anywhere near him for now…it may flare up something unwanted." Daphne said and she looked straight at Yuki's green eyes with her colorless ones. Yuki flinched, her eyes were certainly not normal and so was the rest of her body.

"Ok…so can I go? I'll stay in my room…or wherever you want me to stay in." Yuki said. Daphne tilted her head and smiled.

"I see that you have some questions in your mind…I think I can answer them for you, if you want. We'll talk about them before I park you somewhere." Daphne said she could hear a faint gasp escape from Yuki's lips.

"Yes…I had a strange dream…it was about…me and Kanata doing the…" Yuki felt his cheeks redden, as he recalled the mesmerizing dream sounds that replayed in his ears. The fleeting image of two bodies entangled together appeared in his mind again.

"Ah, yes…the mating ritual…or so he calls it." Daphne chuckled lightly and continued, "If he does that with you, you'll become his goddess. Then you will have to remain by his side forever and he wouldn't need to wear that whole wrap thing ever again."

In truth, Daphne was the one who messed around Yuki's dreams…she silently complimented herself for doing such a thing. It wasn't easy, nor was it right…but she had a lot of fun. The results were even more pleasing…

Yuki was a bit baffled and he tried to take everything in simpler terms. Sex…then become a goddess? What the heck?

"So…I have to do that, so I can become his goddess…but I'm a guy and I don't really care about being a goddess…and I don't know if I really want to stay here forever…" Yuki muttered inanely to himself.

"Ha! It doesn't even matter if you're a male or female! As long as he can insert his shaft into your butt hole, he can transfer so his extra power into you. Plus, it is better that he doesn't need to worry about getting a woman pregnant. Although...I don't know if he wants children or not." Daphne said simply and tried to contain her pent up laughter after she was finished.

Yuki could feel even more embarrassed at Daphne's statement. He focused on the surface he was standing upon, and the image of Kanata's face appeared…along with an evil smirk. He didn't know why that image came up, but it frightened him to no end.

"So, if you don't want to be his goddess…it's fine. He's going to have to face you for 3 years, until we can bring another compatible human to him again. It's not an easy job for us nymphs." Daphne said with a drained sigh.

"I don't know him so well…and I don't know if I can ever develop feelings for a man…with such a past. It would seem like I'm taking advantage of him." Yuki mumbled senselessly to himself. Daphne nodded understandingly.

"I will give you some time to think about it. I just don't want Kanata to fall into the same hole. After that heart break, he really needs comfort from someone. Don't worry about taking advantage of him or not, he's not a meek girl." Daphne said with a helpless shrug.

"Why don't you become his goddess then? You seem to care about him a lot. On top of that, you're a girl."

Daphne let out a chuckle. "I would've done that a long time ago. But I care for him like…a brother, or father…or whatever that doesn't consist of lover feelings. Kanata and we snow nymphs are like family and it's against our morals to fall in love for anyone, but our own kind. Besides, we don't feel anything but loyalty to our superior." Daphne said.

Yuki was a bit surprised.

"I…" Yuki started to say, but stopped.

"It's alright." Daphne raised her hand and the ice that held on Yuki's feet was broken. She dashed forward and grabbed Yuki along the process. Then she jumped down from the roof with Yuki and the next second they were in the garden grounds. But this was the west side of the big house and there were more trees and rocks for sitting.

"Just stay here, I'll tell Kanata to find you when he's done." With that, Daphne waved and disappeared.

Yuki sighed and walked around…he was trying to kill time and decided to get himself lost in the garden grounds.

Yay for nothing happening! It's probably not even worth the wait, but I tried to put 100% focus on this fanfiction.
