Chapter 14

Ryou smiled down at his adorable little cat girl and placed her on the silk sheets of his bed. She was so innocent and sweet. So kind and caring.

Why couldn't she be his willingly? Why had, a century ago, she chosen Kishu? Why couldn't she love him? He loved her so much.

The blond smirked down at the girl. It didn't matter now, if she loved him or not. He loved her and soon she'd be his.

Ryou leaned down to her neck and bared his fangs. Then he drew back.

No, he wouldn't bite her now.

The blond smirked and stroked her hair. He let himself fantasize that moment. The moment when she would become his.

Ryou plunged his teeth into Kishu's throat as the alien screamed in agony. The blond let the blood gush from the man's veins into his mouth.

As the process continued Kishu's skin lost color, finally the green haired man went limp, hanging on to the softest of heartbeats.

Ryou drew out his knife and slowly cut a large slit in the alien's arm. Blood seeped out. Ryou sneered and threw Kishu to the ground.

Laughing as the man struggled breath. Red covered the floor as Kishu took his last breath and went completely limp.

Ryou strode over to Deep Blue and knocked his sword away. The blond sunk his teeth into the brunette's neck and pulled out his dagger.

He plunged it into the man's chest and twisted. Deep Blue yelled out once before falling to the ground, dead.

Ryou turned around and walked over to his sweet Ichigo.

She was trembling and stepped back.

The man chuckled and disappeared, reappearing behind her.

He wrapped his arms around her and rested his head on her shoulder.

Very carefully he bit her neck as she squeaked, then whimpered in pain.

Ryou was desperately trying not to hurt her, but when you're drinking someone's blood they're gonna feel some pain, obviously.

However, when he was done she slowly turned around in his arms and rest her head on his chest.

"I love you." She whispered.

Ryou smiled at that thought. How he desperately wanted her to love him. But he knew that even though he had fantasized it, even a bite couldn't make her love him.

Once he bit her she would be his, but he would have to make her love him some other way.

A moan pulled him out of his thoughts; he looked at his kitten, who was coming to.

"R-Ryou?" she stammered, terrified she began to tremble and sob.

"Shhhh, it's okay." He whispered, leaning down to twirl a few strands of her hair on his finger. "I won't hurt you. Please don't be scared."

She didn't respond, instead she let the tears fall and only said one word. "Kishu."

Ryou's eyes got huge. Then turned an astonishing shade of red in anger.

Kishu stomped down the huge corridor.

How dare Ichigo leave him, he seethed, How dare she leave his arms for the embrace of Deep Blue.

But his anger towards the cat girl was rememinied when he remembered what Ryou had told him.

It wasn't Ichigo's fault. The evil brunette was to blame. He had taken her away from the green haired man.

Kishu felt his hands clench into fist.

Deep Blue was going to meet death that night.

"You let him take her?!" Deep Blue exploded deafeningly at the cowering guard.

"I'm sorry, sir, but the vampire just, you know, left with her and we couldn't stop him. We would have died." the trembling man stuttered.

"I don't care!" Deep Blue shouted, "All I care about is my bride-to-be! Now go find her!"
