Ha! Sweetness for semi-regular updates! My computer has been told to make me update this every Wednesday, but such things are never really certain, especially with me. Hurrahs go to all the people who won and got your fabulous prizes, and swift kicks to the shins go to those who won forgot to leave me their emails, thus getting nothing. Please remember to leave them, or at least be logged in. I can't do anything if I have no way of contacting you. Sorry for the shortness of this, by the way. Many other chapters are finished, and they are mostly much longer than this one. The first real half of the lemon is three pages long. It's also seven chapters away, so please be patient with me, kay? Sweetness.

Clues for the next chapter are... 1) The middle word has seven letters, and has a suffix. 2) The last word is four letters long, starts with f, and is NOT what you're all thinking, you dirty-minded fiends. 3) It reminds me rather strongly of things like 'Saw', 'Friday the Thirteenth', 'Halloween', etc.

Good luck, one and all. With love, Jiia

My heart stopped.

I stared at him. At Link. My Link. The one I loved, the one I needed, the one I wanted with every fibre of my being. Only he wasn't my Link anymore. He was Ganondorf's Link. He was lost to me.

His image began to shimmer, then blurred into a black shadow amidst a sea of blood-stained gold. My tears left burning trails down my cheeks, and for the first time in my life, I wished I had my mask. I felt the edge of the bed dip down as the shadow clambered up next to me, reaching one gauntleted hand out to brush the fiery tears from my face.

I turned my head away.

"This is what you want, isn't it?" Ganondorf's Link asked, letting his hand drop down onto the plush sheets. "You want to be with me."

"Not you." I whispered the trembling in my voice replaced with a terrible, hopeless tone.

He frowned. I couldn't see him, but I could almost hear his expression change.

"What do you mean, not me? You want Link. I am Link."

I let myself sigh and closed my crimson eyes. The eyes that were now the same shade as his.

"No you aren't. Not any more."

He paused. I could here him breathe, slowly, evenly, as if he were not affected by what he was about to do to me at all. And then the bed shifted again, and I felt his corpse-cold fingers take a hold of my chin, and then his lips were on mine and I wanted nothing more than to die.

Ok… Maybe the hardcore yaoi will be in the next chapter… Eek… Lemons are scary!!
