Chapter 13
Kimi started coming around her head pounded from whatever was used on her. She was wishing that she had been claimed as a mate rather than a mate to be then she could have used the bond to contact them. She slowly opened her eyes when she noticed the room spinning she closed them again. She decided to try any way she concentrated on her mates thinking of one thing she needed their help and hoped they'd get the message. She slowly opened her eyes to try to see where she was again. This time her vision was clear, and she could see herself surrounded by thick rock walls. Very little light was coming into the room indicating that she was near the back of the cave. She could tell by the thickness of the walls screaming would do her no good.
Now that she had seen her room it was time to figure things out Hakkaku had told her to do three things if she was ever taken. First to look at what kind of room she was in, and it's furniture. She struggled to sit up as she found her hands were tied behind her back. All she could see was the bed she was on. She felt around her hands and found they had used rope to tie her with. She looked at her body and breathed a sigh of relief when she found herself still fully dressed. She tried to move around only to notice a rope tied around her ankle she tugged on it only to find there wasn't much slack in the rope so she couldn't go far unless it was in the direction of the rope source since that area was very dark, and who knows what was over there, for now, she didn't want to find out. Now she had to work on step two learning where her captors were, and a plan of escape.
She could hear her captors voices but they were soft so she used her nose to judge their distance, and found that they were a considerable distance from her current location. The first thing she needed to do was to get her hands free, and then the rope around her ankle would be easy to remove at least she hoped it would be easy to remove. The only issue would be how to escape from the cave and if there was a way around the two captors to the exit.
~ With Ginta and Hakkaku ~
They had left early morning and had traveled several hours to take care of all their duties so that they could return to their mate. Ginta looked at Hakkaku asking, "Do you have a funny feeling like something is wrong with Kimi?"
Hakkaku looked at him replying, "She may just miss us but I feel it too. Although I am not sure what is wrong or if it's urgent, and we should turn back. I care for Kimi but I don't want it to be nothing and have Koga upset we didn't do our assignments. I think we pass others of our clan during our route we will ask them to have Ayame check on her at least it will put our minds at ease since we can't return."
Ginta sighed he had wanted to turn around, and check himself but he knew Hakkaku was right Koga would be mad if it was something small, and his plan to ask Ayame to check in on her did calm him down some. He personally couldn't wait for these three weeks to be up he already missed her. He remembered when he took her they had trained all day her body constantly against his in close contact with each other all day. He had finally lost his resolve he had gone to Hakkaku begging him to take him only to be denied and told to go to Kimi for release or suffer. He had been so angry he had stormed past Kimi into the bedroom while Hakkaku left to hunt. He was surprised when Kimi had come into the bed chambers asking if he wanted to talk about what bothered him. When he didn't answer he felt soothing circles being rubbed into his back. He finally got up the courage to explain the problem to her he was surprised when she smiled and told him he could be with her if he wanted. He was surprised she would let him but once he thought about it, he really didn't understand why he was holding back. When he didn't respond right away he could see the hurt in her eyes that was when he decided he was being silly, and why suffer when you had a willing partner to take care of you. That was when he grabbed her wrist and gently pulled her into bed with him. He found he really loved being in charge for once, and she was so willing to respond to him. She was so opposite Hakkaku so soft, tender, and gentle to him their slow process during rutting was so enjoyable. His thoughts were interrupted when Hakkaku turned, and said ,"I sent someone to ask Ayame to check on her, now quit thinking of mating that will only make the job take longer, and I for one want to return to our Kimi as soon as possible."
~ With Kimi ~
It didn't take long for her captors to come to where she was being held. Sasuke was the first to approach her causing her to growl at him he whispered softly, "She is making me do this I am sorry but it was the only way I could get a mate. I am sorry but if I don't she won't mate me, and who knows what the council will do."
Kimi knew this tactic from the time she had been captured before she decided, for now, she'd play along but she wouldn't make it easy for him either. She looked at him saying, "You must do what you must do. But know this you will not get anything from me willingly for I only submit to Hakkaku and Ginta. If you hadn't noticed I bear both of their courting marks, and if they hadn't been sent on this mission the plan was to mate."
