I'm truly sorry for taking this long to write the next chapter but with holidays and some family problems, well, I couldn't find the time. Let's not talk about sad things. I want to thank everybody who reviewed: mangaaddict300; Yuki Niwa; jds629; Truthful-lies; Tootie ; otakuffee; renfree; Jelly Babes 101 and twinkle0820.
Someone told me that the last chapter wasn't clear. I'm gonna explain it briefly. Ren and Kyoko came to Ren's room. Kyoko is going to take a shower and while she's under the water, Ren's falling asleep. Then, it's the dream and Kyoko woke him up by asking him where the shampoo is.
I hope that all the misunderstandings are now cleared up.
Special thanks to you, dear Beta reader
And I want to give some chocolate cake to all the readers who start school. Courage!

Normal POV
Kyoko left early. Ren was still sleeping, so she left him a note saying:
"Thank you for being here. I'm leaving early, got some things to do. Your breakfast is in the kitchen.
I love you so much, dear Ren.
Kyoko"
Kyoko slept really well that night in Ren's arms. For the first time, she felt that she was loved. Loved for what she was, a woman. Her night was peaceful and warm. Warm because of her heart full of love.
But Ren had a really bad night. He was exhausted from restraining himself from jumping on Kyoko all night long. And the night was very long. Kyoko was driving him crazy. She was sleeping in his arms, hugging him, squeezing him really hard. He was really crazy. Crazy of love. He was febrile, nervous and he felt hot. Physically, his desire was obvious. And emotionally, he was radiant with love. Because even though it was really hard for him to be this near of Kyoko, he was in heaven. Being able to look at her like that, abandoned in his arms, sleeping while hugging him, was making him the happiest man on Earth. He didn't want to think about the future, just about living in the moment. Orpheus finally took him in his arms and Ren fell asleep.
When he finally woke up, he was relieved to see that she wasn't here anymore. He was full of contradictory emotions.
He loves her but he must make her believe that he hates her.
He wants to always be by her side but it's really hard to restrain himself from what he really want to do when she's so close.
He's happy like he never was but sad at the same time. Sad like he thought he would never be again.
After leaving, Kyoko went to the hospital. She wanted to join Cindy. She had to assume her responsibility in Nicky's death. He was under her care but he died. The dull pain in her chest was making breathing difficult. Ren had convinced her that she wasn't responsible of anything. But it was yesterday. Ren… She remembered her evening with Ren. The man she loves. The man who loves her in return. She remembered his scent, the taste of his lips, of his tongue. She remembered the way he kissed her. The way he caressed her. She remembered his breathing. Two nurses stopped her memory. She noticed that she was panting. Damn Ren. Even when wasn't here, just dreaming about him was making her hot. This sensation was new. But it was so good. She heard the nurses talk and decided to listen in order to calm down.
- Did you see?
- What?
- Cindy! She was here! She went to see her brother. He died yesterday.
Silence. Kyoko hid herself behind a post.
- Cindy doesn't have a brother.
- But…
- I assure you she is an only child. She was really proud of it in an interview.
-But…
- Who was her "brother"?
- Mmh… Nicky, room 666.
- Nicky? His face remind me of someone…
- Yes, he looks like this French producer, Nicolas Fontaine.
- Fontaine? Wait…
Kyoko stood up and looked at the two nurses. The nurse that just spoke, 'Staicy'- it was written on her badge- took her iPhone and quickly tapped the screen with her manicured nails, staring intently as the light from the phone grew light, then dark, then back again.
- Here! Nicolas Fontaine and his wife disappeared six months ago. They have a child who was seen only two times but the detectives lost all traces of him. What if ?...
Staicy's eyes were shining, a fire was burning inside of her. But the other nurse, Janet, extinguished it.
- What did you watch on TV, last evening?
- A thriller, full of suspense and angst. It was about …
- You let yourself be unduly influenced. You are a silly girl. What were you saying? Cindy would have kidnapped the Fontaine family and used the boy in God only knows what evil plan?
Staicy stepped back, ashamed. The two women were called in a bloc and left the hall. Kyoko's legs collapsed, her eyes couldn't see anymore. She was lost in a memory…
When I heard that Nicky took my horse, I immediately took another one. I had no other choice. I had to save him. Saiko kills and Kyoko saves. That's how things were going in my head. I made my horse run fast. But not as fast as I would like. Then I heard Nicky talk:
- Papa, Mama, I'm sorry …
- NICKY!
I could only shout his name. Making him understand that I was here and he was going to be ok. No other possibility. That's how things were going in my world…
Her breathing became erratic. Another memory invaded her mind.
- A woman with a child came to see me : Cindy and Nicky. Cindy's hair was blonde, shiny like the sun and her eyes blue like the ocean. But Nicky's hair was dark like ebony and his eyes emerald green. There was no resemblance, from the nose to the chin, passing by cheekbone and dimple. Nothing.
Kyoko was hot, dizzy and needed oxygen. Her phone saved her from falling in the abyss of her confusion. Work was calling. Saika stood up and went to the shooting like a zombie. Today, they needed to shoot her meeting with Billy after all these years. When they told her to start all her weaknesses disappeared, leaving only the best, or should I say the beast?
