She woke with a start, sitting up and screaming at the top of her lungs. The nightmare scared her; she saw Ash being ripped apart in front of her eyes, and she was powerless. It felt too real and she couldn't shake the panic. More screams ripped from her throat, waking the chain scythe beside her.

"Huh?" he said as he sat up and rubbed his eyes as he yawned. "What's wrong Karma?"

She continued screaming, thrashing across the bed as she held her head. Tears were streaming down her face. "ASH!" she cried, the panic from the nightmare overwhelming her.

He held her tightly. "Calm down Karma," he said gently as he hugged her tightly. She thrashed in his embrace, still not fully awake from the nightmare as she continued to scream and cry out for him.

Ash began to shake her roughly to snap her out of it. "Karma! It's okay! I'm here. It's okay..." Her screams intensified as her limbs flailed out, smacking him in the face as she continued sobbing. Ash just growled and tried to calm her down with his wavelength. She tried resisting, but as he continued, she started relaxing in his arms ever so slightly. He smiled a bit and used more of his wavelength as he hugged her tightly. She became limp in his arms as her eyes cracked open blearily. He smiled a bit at her and kissed the top of her head.
"W-what happened?" she asked groggily.

"You kinda freaked out," he said as some blood dripped from his head where she hit him.

"S-sorry," she murmured, head bowing in shame.

He smiled at her and tilted her head up so he could kiss her. "Don't worry about it." Her lips locked with his in a feverish passion, the dream, no nightmare, of losing him still fresh in her memory. She wanted to assure that he was there, that he wasn't going anywhere. He chuckled. "Are you okay Karma?"
"I think so," she whispered before pulling him into another passionate kiss, pulling him on top of her in the process.
He smiled as they kissed. "Why were you screaming so much anyways?"
"Nightmare," she whispered against his lips. Her arms wrapped around him, trying to pull him closer. She didn't want to talk now, she wanted to enjoy being with him, in more way than one. He smiled as he just continued to kiss her. She hummed in pleasure, fingers twisting in his hair as her tongue tangled with his.
He laughed. "You are getting a little aroused huh?"
She blushed. "Shush you," she whispered as she pulled him in for another kiss. He snickered and kissed back. Her grip on him tightened. Oh Death, if he didn't get the hint soon she was going to explode!

He laughed a bit. "Easy Karma you're gonna suffocate me." She loosened her grip slightly and pouted. He chuckled. "Hmm?"

She glared at him for chuckling at her. "Just fuck me already!" she snapped. Her eyes widened when she realized what she had said and a blush took over her face.

He blushed as well. "Kinky…" he snickered a bit. "Alright take your clothes off for me Karma. Put on a little show." She spluttered and blushed. Was he serious? He snickered again as he kissed her roughly and groped her breasts. "If you won't do it, I will," he said with a smirk as he began to undress her. She moaned loudly and arched into his touch. This, this was what she needed. Validation that he was here, dominating her. She loved him and that nightmare scared her and shook her to her core. She needed him to make everything better. When all her clothes were off, he began to slowly rub her as he sucked on her nipple. Her back arched, chest pushing into his face as she moaned loudly. He gently nibbled on her nipple as he fingered her quickly.

"Ash!" she cried out, hands instantly burying themselves in his hair as her hips bucked up into his eager hand.

"You horny girl," he said as he snickered and kissed down her body until he reached her clit. She shivered in anticipation as his hot breath ghosted over her sensitive flesh. He licked her clit slowly as he fingered her faster. Her cries grew louder with every lap at her bundle of nerves, tugging at his hair to pull him closer to her. He curled his fingers in her so they would hit her g-spot as he fingered her as fast as he could. Her back arched as she sputtered out his name loudly, pants and gasps of pleasure loud in the air. "Will you cum for me Karma?" he said as he teased her asshole and licked her clit faster. She jumped slightly from his probing finger as she shook her head, feeling herself barreling forward to her release. He continued to finger her and lick her clit.

"A-Ash!" she screamed, tugging on his hair as her legs tightened around his face, her orgasm sweeping over her. He snickered and licked his lips as he undressed. She panted, trying to regain her breath as she looked at him in anticipation. As soon as he was fully undressed, she pulled him down on top of her, his chest mashing against hers. He chuckled a bit and kissed her roughly as he rubbed her with his tip. She moaned loudly, hips lifting up to signal to him that she was more than ready. He snickered as he began to fuck her hard. A scream tore through her lips as he filled her to the brim. It felt so damn good and she made sure to show him by leaving marks up and down his back as she pressed her lips roughly against his neck.
He roughly groped her breasts as he fucked her hard. "You're so damn tight!"
"Shit!" she cried, throwing her head back on the pillow. His rough hands felt like heaven on her overheated flesh and his words made her even hotter. She loved when he talked dirty to her. There was something so hot about it.
He leaned down and whispered into her ear. "I love pounding your tightly little pussy like this."
A shiver ran down her spin as he said that, her hands clawing into his shoulders. "Fuck Ash," she moaned. "M-more. Please," she brokenly begged him. He made her legs wrap around him tighter so he could go deeper in her and so he could hit her g-spot. She clutched him closer, gasping out as he hit her deeper and deeper. "Faster!" she cried. He snickered as he groped her breasts roughly and fucked her faster and harder. She moaned louder from his grasping hands and she couldn't help but bite down on his neck, scratches dug deep into his back.
"Karma... I'm close."
"Ha-ah! M-me too!" she cried as he hit a spot deep inside her. He began to fuck her as hard and fast and he could. Her legs tightened around his hips, pulling him deeper as she felt herself tense up, her release a few thrusts away. After another 1 or 2 thrusts he came deeply inside of her. She screamed his name loudly, body shaking as her orgasm came over her. Her nails bit into his shoulders as her body arched up into him. After she was done cumming, he just turned her around so she was on her hands and knees and began to fuck her again. "Fuck!" she screamed, not prepared for him to enter her again. She fisted her hands in the sheets, panting as he pounded into her. He leaned over so he could go deep in her. "A-Ash!" she cried, arms shaking as she tried to brace herself against the headboard.
"You feel so good~" he whispered into her ear. "Do you like it when I pound your tight little pussy like this?" She cried out as her arms buckled, sending her face into the pillow as he continued thrusting into her. His dirty words made her hotter. He flipped then over so she was on top of him and so she would bounce on him as he fucked her hard and fast. Loud moans poured from her mouth as she sunk down on him. He groped her breasts roughly as he gently nibbled on her ear. Her chest arched into his hands as she shivered from his tongue tracing her ear. He gently pinched her nipple as he made her bounce on him harder and faster.
"A-ah!" she squeaked. Her release was impending faster than last time.
"Ah Karma I'm gonna cum again."
"M-me too!" she cried. He went as deep as he could go and came in her again. When he was done, he slowly pulled out of her. She panted and slumped forward, chest heaving as she tried to regain her breath. "L-love you Ash," she rasped out.
He snickered and spread her pussy out so their cum would flow out of her. "Love you too Karma."
She moaned as their combined juices ran down her leg. She cuddled close to him, feeling content. "T-thank you," she whispered. He nodded and kissed her gently as he covered them with a blanket. She was so glad he understood her. She needed him to validate that he was there, and boy did he do just that. She cuddled him close, kissing his neck softly.

He smiled a bit. "So how was the sex?" he said as he chuckled a bit.

"Good, as always," she said as she swatted him playfully.

He chuckled and kissed her nose. "Let's go back to sleep now."

"Sounds good to me," she yawned as she snuggled close. He kissed her gently before he fell asleep. She fell asleep as well, feeling the safest she has ever felt. Ash slept peacefully as he snuggled her tightly. Quiet snores came from her as she slept soundly in his loving embrace.

In the morning he smiled at her sleeping face. He kissed her gently before he brushed some hair away from her face so he could kiss her again. She stirred in her sleep, smiling at him as she groggily awoke.

"Morning love," he said with a smile and kissed her again.

"Sleep well?" she asked as she pulled away from the kiss and cuddled into his arms. He nodded and cuddled her tightly.

"Me too. Thank you again," she whispered.

He nodded. "Hungry?"

"A bit," she admitted sheepishly. He nodded and got up to cook for them. She stretched out in bed, yawning loudly. When he was done cooking he brought the plate to her and smiled. "Thank you," she smiled, drooling slightly before taking the plate from him.

He laughed a bit and wiped her mouth. "You drool so much Karma."

"I can't help it," she pouted, crossing her arms. "When I finally get good food I can't contain my excitement." He chuckled and kissed her gently as he began to eat. She happily dug into her food, the tastes of Brazil making her excited. "So," she murmured around a bite of food. "When do we head back to Shibusen?"

"I think in 3 days," he said as he swallowed his food.

"What are we gonna do in Rio for three days?" she asked, mind wandering to different tourist attractions.

He shrugged. "We can look around."

She contemplated this for a minute. "Anywhere you would want to see in particular?"

"Maybe just the giant statue, but that's about it."

"I've heard about that, but I can't remember the name. It sounds interesting," she smiled.

He nodded and laid down on the couch. "Well wanna go look at it?"

"Sure," she grinned. "Umm, where do I put the plates?" she asked, looking around the hotel room. He just grabbed the plate and put it in the sink. "I could have taken care of that," she pouted, arms flailing about.

He laughed a bit and kissed her. "Don't worry about it Karma." She rolled her eyes and continues pouting as she went and plopped down on the couch. This room was so extravagant, she could only imagine how much they had spent on it. He just poked her nose as he turned invisible. "So we going or what?"
She rolled her eyes at his antics. "Yes we will. Do you want to go today or tomorrow?"
"Well what will we do if we don't go today?"
She pondered this for a moment. "I'm not quite sure," she admitted with a sigh.

"Well we could go for a fly," he said as he got his wings out, but one of them seemed to be black while the other is white.

"Flying sounds nice," she smiled, sitting up and noticing his wings. "Ash…what's going on with your wings?" she asked, a bit concerned.

"Hmm?" He looked at his wings and freaked out a bit. "Ah! Why am I an angel and a demon!?"
"Should I look into your soul to see?" she asked with trepidation in her voice. She was concerned about what this could mean.
He touched his fingers together out of nervousness. "Heh heh well..." he really didn't want her to look into his soul because he's afraid of what she might see.
"Are you hiding something from me?" she asked with a quirked eyebrow.
"Well we did agree to hide our past and my past is in my soul... I'm much older than I look you know..."
"When did we agree to hide our past?" she questioned, arms folding. She was a bit aggravated that he was keeping things from her. She had bared her fears and soul to him and he wanted to hide things from her. "Besides, I already have been into your soul before."
"True but there are many things that I hid still," he sighed. "I just don't want you to think different of me when you look into the deeper parts of my soul." As he said this he began to remember his times in hell and all the things he did, and enjoyed doing there, making his other wing turn black slowly.
"Ash!" she yelled, grabbing his face and making him look her in the eye. "Why would I have any reason to think differently of you? We all have our dark pasts and secrets. None of that matters though!"
He sighed as his wings grew fully black. "Fine. If you want to go into my soul I'm coming with you. I need to make sure you don't go to the darker parts that will make you mad."
She nodded curtly, closing her eyes to focus. "By the way, I thought you didn't know about your past because you lost your memory," she murmured scathingly, irritated from being lied to.
"Heh right..." he said as they entered his soul. His soul was dark, but it didn't faze her; she was used to darkness because of her soul. She was still pissed at him for lying to her. He went into his soul with her and made sure she stayed away from the darkest parts of his soul.
"Why did you lie?" she asked as she searched for the darkness that made him half demon once again.
"Because I was afraid."
"So fear makes it right to lie to me?" she challenged, wandering towards a red glow she saw.
"Heheh well... I wasn't thinking."
"You better think next time," she snapped as she got closer to the light.
He just chuckled nervously as he nodded. "Right..."
She stopped and spun around to face him. "I mean it Ash. I hate when people lie to me," she growled, pushing her finger in his chest. "If we want this to work, we have to talk. Got it?"
He nodded. "Alright." Her eyes narrowed, trying to see if he actually meant it. He just kissed her on the forehead. "Fine, wanna see my life? Go to wherever you want in my soul then." She nodded, not returning the kiss as she walked back toward the light, wanting to know what the red glow was.
He followed her kinda nervous. "Umm just so you know Karma... That's the gate to hell."
"Why is the gate to hell in your soul?" she asked with a quirked eyebrow.
"What? How else am I gonna get home?"
"Your home is hell?"
He nodded. "I'm a demon after all." She just shook her head and continued walking towards the gate, hoping there would be some answers there. He followed her. "Careful Karma. You don't know where you're going."
"Would you like to lead?" she challenged, still irritated.
"If it keeps you safe, yes," he said as he took the lead. She followed behind him, lost in her thoughts. She thought he was different than the others. But after his admittance to lying to her, she wasn't too sure. She hated that she didn't feel like she could trust him right now. "You know I could read your thoughts through your soul. I know you don't trust me anymore, but in here you should."
"You have to prove to me that I can trust you again," she retorted.
He sighed. "Well in hell you kinda have too. Unless you want to end it off here and you'll go back home."
"End it off?" As pissed as she was at him, the thought of their partnership turned whatever they were ending did not sit well with her.
He nodded and glanced back at her. "Yea end it off. Because if you can't trust me here, well you're going to die," he said as some demons walked up to them. "Welcome home prince Ash," they said as they kneeled with their wings down. She couldn't speak. He wanted to end their partnership? Was that what he was saying? She started shaking, following him. "Hello." He turned towards Karma. "So? Say something Karma or you will die here. There's no way out unless you're with me."
"I-I will stay with you. But we need to talk about this later," she sighed before saying hello to the demons. She followed behind, still ill at ease with the whole situation. And now with the information that Ash was a prince piled on top of everything else, she felt sick. Ash picked her up and began to fly towards the castle in the sky. "H-how long have you been a prince?" she asked timidly.
"Since I was born... Technically I'm the ruler of this world," he said as they got to the castle. "I know it from here. Thank you." The demons bowed and left them alone as Ash began to walk to the king's bedroom.
She was quiet, trying to figured out and process all of this information. "So... Are you a prince or a King?"
"I'm a prince but since my parents died I get to be in their room. But I can't be a king unless I marry." She hummed in thought as she sat down on the luxurious bed. She was partners with a soon to be king. Who would have thought? "Don't get too comfortable. I'm not planning on staying long," he said as he sat down next to her. "It'll still be hard for us to get out of here when we want to..."
"Were... Were you afraid of telling me you were the heir to the throne?" she asked, eyes roaming his face for the answer.
He shook his head as a women came in. He quickly glanced over to Karma and whispered. "I was afraid of telling you that I had an arranged marriage with her," he said as the women came over and sat in Ash's lap, kissing him.
Karma's blood began to boil from seeing her in his lap. First, he lied to her about his past. And now he was in an arranged marriage?! She stood with a huff, glaring at him. "Fuck you," she spat before running out the door. She couldn't believe this! She trusted him! She gave herself to him! And he proved to be like the others who hurt her.
Ash just pushed his bride to be off of him and teleported to her. "Stop. Remember, we're in the sky and you will fall if you don't have a demon with you."
She whipped around, a blast of psychic energy throwing him against the wall as she glared. As her fury built, she began to hover off the ground. "I think I'm able to manage quite well," she spat, arms crossing. "Shouldn't you be with your bride instead of your whore?"
He just sighed and ran his hand through his hair. "Fine. Whatever. If you want it like that, I'll stay in the underworld. Good luck in hell," he said as he got up and opened a portal for her to go back as he went back to his room. She fell into the portal despite resisting madly. She screamed profanities as tears fell freely. Was this how it really was meant to be?
Ash shed a tear as he went back to his room and ruled the underworld for a couple of years, with his queen who he married when Karma left. One day he decided to check on her and sighed when he saw her. "I miss her..." he said as he gently touched the pool of water where he saw her reflection, disorientating the picture. A tear fell from his face as he continue to mumble to himself. "Why did I let her go?"
