Chapter 10

They started their hunt for the last ball early the next morning.

He woke her up and they got dressed, both still groggy and tired. They had stayed up late into the night, talking. He couldn't ever remember sitting down and talking to someone like that. They talked about their lives, their dreams, everything. He hadn't ever really put any thought into it before. He liked saving people and he liked fighting. But listening to her talk about seeing the world, and other worlds, made him think about what all he could be missing.

She told him that she wanted to learn everything she could about life on Earth. She wanted to help people as much as he did.

He asked her what she thought about him training to stay ready for an attack on earth.

She told him as long as she got to fight as well she didn't care.

That shocked him. In all his years married to Chi-Chi, it had been a constant battle between them. That and the fact that he wouldn't get an everyday job. He asked her if she thought he should or if she wanted one and she shrugged. She told him that she liked living simply, that they both had the skills to take care of themselves and not have to rely on a job to live. He had to smile at that one.

"I can build a house to live in, I can hunt and fish to eat. The only thing I would need money for would be necessities, and you said tournaments pay well, so as long as I'm frugal, I would be fine." She had told him.

He didn't understand at first. Chi-Chi had always told him nobody thought like he did, that it just wasn't the way you did things. But here sat a woman that was happy doing exactly that.

She tugged his shirt, pulling him from his thoughts. He gave another enormous yawn and took out the radar. He studied it for a moment, before his eyes widened in shock.

"What is it?" she asked, stretching.

"I think the last ball is at Bulma's."

Vegeta powered down as he landed out back of Capsule Corp. He looked around to see if any of the usual imbeciles were there to see the blue haired harpy, but the place seemed quiet enough. He wondered where his offspring were today. He hadn't seen them since before he left for his training. The day Trunks helped the others ambush him with the girl didn't count.

Not to him, anyways.

He walked into the main living area, calling out to the woman. He had plans when he came back to try and talk sense into her. She had called him selfish and arrogant and got mad when he agreed with her. He was a Prince! How the hell else was he supposed to act?

He didn't understand earth women. They expected too much!

That's why he set his sights on the girl.

Sure, her heat had been the trigger, but the more he thought about it, the he liked the idea. A sturdy Saiyan female who could give him what he wanted and know her place in the relationship. A smirk formed on his lips as he thought about her joining him in a few weeks.

He would have to be sure to rub it Kakarott's face when she chose him.

He heard voices in the kitchen and made his way there, hoping to catch the woman cooking. She was still mad at him, but wouldn't deny him a meal.

His two offspring sat at the table, Bulla with her nose in her phone, while Trunks sat conversing with his mother.

"I have to find a way to contact them, Trunks! You know I wish I had made Goku take a phone with him before they took off!" she griped, lighting a cigarette. She blew out a puff of smoke before continuing.

"I hope he looks at the radar and figures out I've got one soon! The sooner they make their wish the better!"

Vegeta gave a start.

A wish?

"What are you talking about, woman?" he demanded, making all three of them jump and stare at him.

Bulma gaped like a fish for a moment before puffing up.

"It's none of your business, bastard! How dare you even set foot back in here!" she yelled, standing to face him.

He just snorted, walking over to stand in front of her.

"What wish are you talking about? I won't ask again." He said, glaring at her. She rolled her eyes, turning to walk away when he grabbed her arm, holding her still. Trunks made to get up but Vegeta held up a hand.

"Answer me now!"

"No!"

He seethed with anger. If Kakarott was finding the dragon balls it only meant one thing: he was trying to break the Duorum Amantium.

"Where's the ball you found, woman?" he asked in a deadly voice.

"I'd like to know as well."

He turned to see Kakarott and the girl behind him, his arm wrapped around her protectively. He snarled, pushing Bulma to the side roughly.

"You won't save her! I'll take you out before you can even call that damn dragon!" he bellowed.

Goku stood his ground, but Willow narrowed her eyes. She stepped away from him, her fists clenched at her side.

"You're really something, you know that? Doesn't it bother you that I don't want you? I think you're disgusting! You would have to force me to even be with you!" she seethed, her power rising. Goku took a small step back, looking at her in surprise. Vegeta was too busy feeling insulted to notice though.

"You should feel honored I would even look at you! I am the Prince of ALL Saiyans! You are just a lowly peasant compared to me!"

"There aren't any Saiyans left you idiot! Just us! That's it! Rule over your damn self for all we care!"

"You will hold your tongue child!" he bellowed, getting in her face.

She reached out and slapped him, shocking him.

"All this is for you is a power trip! Why can't you understand that I want NOTHING to do with you!" she screamed in his face, powering up to SS3. His eyes widened in shock before he sneered at Goku.

"Is this why you've been trying to keep her for yourself, Kakarott?" he asked, leering at her.

Willow growled, her tail unwrapping its self and twitching erratically. Vegeta smirked.

"I think I hit a nerve… Is that it Kakarott? Do you like dominating her?"

Both of them blushed, but stood their ground. Vegeta laughed cruelly.

"Oh that's it, isn't it? You know I can smell him on you, right?" he whispered, getting closer to her. Goku began to growl, his lip curling.

"One more step Vegeta…. One more and I won't hold back." Goku snarled.

Vegeta smirked at him and stepped forward, reaching out and running a hand over Willows hip.

She punched him at the contact, but Goku moved past her, grabbing Vegeta and using IT to transport them out to the yard.

Bulma was moving as soon as they disappeared.

Trunks, go get the Dragon Ball! Willow, do you have the others?"

Willow got out their capsule, hearing Goku roar in rage outside. She threw it open and grabbed the cloth bag Goku had been keeping them in. Trunks skidded back into the kitchen, handing his mother the last ball. She grabbed Willow's arm and they, along with Trunks and Bulla, dashed out to the yard.

Bulma grabbed the bag from Willow and tossed the balls on the ground, call the dragon forth.

Willow watched in amazement as the sky began to darken amid the sounds of the battle going on behind them.

Then the Dragon appeared before them.

She gasped in awe of the creature that towered above them.

"State your wish…" he boomed out, making her shudder.

They heard a howl of rage behind them and they all turned to see Goku holding Vegeta back.

"Make the wish!" he bellowed at them.

Willow looked up at the large being above her and squared her shoulders.

"My wish is that the Duorum Amantium that Vegeta called forth was voided and that he can never use it on me again!" she called.

The dragon rumbled above them, tilting his head slightly.

"I cannot grant this wish."

"Why the hell not?"

Bulma smacked her in the back of the head as Trunks groaned.

"Shhh! don't talk to him like that!" she told her.

The Dragon made a sound like thunder as he glared down at her.

"I cannot grant this because it is already voided. You are bound to Son Goku. He is your mate."

"What is your other wish?"

Willow looked up at him in shock.

She was bound to Goku? She sat down weakly, her mouth hanging open in shock.

Bulma took over before the Dragon could get any more annoyed.

"I wish that Vegeta wasn't such an asshole, and that he thought more about his family!" she asked of the being. He gave another rumble and nodded slightly.

"Your wish is granted" he spoke before disappearing into the dark clouds. The dragon balls rose into the air and disappeared with the dragon in the receding dark clouds, leaving the sun shining once more.

Bulma turned to see Vegeta sagging in Goku's hold, breathing heavily. He looked up at her slowly and for the first time since she had met at him, she saw regret in his eyes. Goku finally let him go and he hit the ground on his knees, hands going to the ground. She ran over to him, her arms going around him.

He shakily brought his around her.

"I'm s-s-"

She kissed him, cutting him off.

"I know, I know..." she whispered, tears streaming down her face.

She helped him stand and led him into the house, followed by their children, leaving Goku and Willow alone. He walked over and sat down next to her, rubbing his face.

"The Dragon said we are bound…" she whispered, still staring ahead in shock.

Goku smiled. It sounded wonderful to him. His hand made its way up to the nape of her neck, finding the bite mark form before. He stroked it gently, making her lean towards him instinctively.

"You're my mate." He said, simply.

She nodded faintly, finally looking up at him.

"Goku?"

"Yeah?"

"Let's go home."
