Ok time for the next chapter oh and good news….I decided to bring back a character in the next chapter. Can ya guess who it is?

Chapter 25: I love you my prince

After 10 minutes alone with Kuon and his secrets, Kyoko couldn't believe it. Kuon was in a gang , hurting a lot of people, almost killed someone. But he also ended up hurting himself in the process. He is standing before her. Kuon sighed. "now you know the truth and I know you have every right to be mad at me. But I still want to know, will you disappear?" Kyoko just kept looking at him but her mind, was thinking about what her grandfather told her a while back.

"everyone including you, released the raging tiger"

"the raging tiger?" Linn repeated. "yes, inside you, your tiger spirit feels trapped in a cage and if its still there after a long time it'll become out of control due to trying to get out. Once its released, you lose your temper and don't realize what you did till you did it.'

'but it calms down and people regret it right?' Linn questioned Her ye-ye sadly smiled. 'depends on the person. But I'm glad you and the others realized the mistakes you've done'

Kyoko came back to reality and slowly smiled and said "I wont disappear. My heart already belongs to you and I want to stay with you forever. Is that ok?" Kuon sighed and dropped on his knees and cupped Kyoko's face with both of his hands. His face was very close to hers. "thank goodness. I was so scared that you would reject me"

"why would I do that? I know how you feel. You felt trapped. You wanted to get out of the darkness but you lost your temper and made some mistakes." Kyoko's eyes sparkled. "but you learned from them. You were paying the price for all of them. don't you think its time to forgive yourself a little bit?" Kuon then looked away from her gaze. "I-I don't know. what if I go lose my temper? and then I hurt you…?" Kyoko gently put her finger on his lips to silence him.

"Kuon look at me. You're not going to hurt me. And if you ever do hurt me, it wont stop me from loving you. Please Kuon don't push me away. Its ok now. You can stop hurting yourself. You can stop punishing yourself too" then Kuon's heart began to heal and see the light. For 7 years of punishing and hurting. Kuon never saw true beauty till now.

Kuon's pov

Never in my life I seen true beauty. Then I felt tears streaming down my face. I feel like I was forgiven. I feel all the chains crumble and I could see the light. Kyoko just hugged me tight. I honestly don't know how we end up laying on my bed though. Then later I just fell asleep.

Next day Kyoko's pov.

The sunlight woke me up. Kuon still had his arm around me. I turned to see his sleeping face. He's so peaceful. I quietly got out of bed and headed to the kitchen, which is VERY big by the way. While cooking, Julie entered. "oh Kyoko! Um about last night…" "its ok Julie, what happened to Anthony and Sarah?"

"Kuu told them to leave. Kyoko, did Kuon…"

"told me the truth? Yes, he did" Julie showed that worried expression. But it told her the truth "Julie, I don't hate your son and I don't pity him. No matter what he told me, it doesn't change the fact that I love him. I don't want to lose him." Julie looked into my eyes for a minute till she burst into tears. Then she hugged me tight. "thank you! thank you!"

Normal pov

Kuu and Taya came in and heard everything. They smiled happily. "Kuon finally found the right girl. don't you think so daddy?" Kuu kissed his lil girls forehead even though she's no longer little. "yes. Its all over. Kuon can finally be happy." just after Kuu said that, Kuon entered the kitchen. Julie let go of Kyoko and quickly fled the kitchen to leave the couple alone. Kyoko smiled and pecked Kuon's lips before continuing cooking. "did you had a nice sleep?" Kuon nodded while walking in front of Kyoko. He needs to know. To know that what she said last night was true. He doesn't want her to pity him. He looked deep into her eyes till he found his answer. "I love you" then he kissed her. Kyoko was a bit surprised by this but kissed him back. After they broke the kiss, Kyoko looked into his eyes and smiled happily.

Later in the afternoon Kaoru's funeral started and a lot of people were there. Friends and family. Sarah and Anthony were there too. They approached to the couple.

Sarah spoke first. "Kuon, I apologize. But I need to speak with you privately." Kyoko hugged Kuon's arm in response. Kuon kissed her forehead. And said in Japanese "I'll be fine. I promise" she let go but glared at Sarah.

While Kuon and Sarah were like 9 feet away. Anthony decided to end the silence with Kyoko and him. "I want to apologize also. But I'm telling you, Kuon isn't the man you think he-"

"I know he isn't" interrupted Kyoko.

"he told me the truth and its not going to change my feelings for him so with all do respect, stay away from Kuon and his family." and she slowly walked away but Anthony doesn't want to let her go that easily. "wait a minute! He's probably ly-" but before he could finish, Kyoko turned around and gave him that mio glare. Anthony flinched and backed off. Kyoko turned back and walked away

Meanwhile with Kuon and Sarah

"Kuon I love you! Why cant you see that?" Sarah tried to kiss him but failed. Kuon gently pushed her away. "because I love Kyoko. She's the only person I need"

"she cant accept you! Do you honestly think that she loves you?"

Kuon glared at Sarah and answered. "yes I do. Kyoko loves me and I love her. Simple as that. Now if you excuse me, I need the find my girlfriend." and he walked away. He found Kyoko with his family. After the funeral ended, the Hizuri's headed home. Kuon took Kyoko to the back yard (which is HUGE! Like park size huge). After a moment of silence, Kyoko decided to talk. "are you alright?" Kuon sadly smiled. "yeah a little. I'm just glad I said goodbye to an old friend." Kyoko can tell that Kuon is hiding something else.

"what did she say?"

"huh?"

"don't play dumb Kuon!" Kuon sighed. "a lot of things. Saying that she loves me and you cant love me and accept me like she can" Kyoko growled. "she doesn't know me!" she then stood in front of Kuon and stared deeply to his eyes.

"you made a couple of mistakes, you lost your temper. You're not perfect Kuon! We all make mistakes! The important thing is that we learn from them! that's why my feelings for you hasn't changed! because you learned from them and were punishing yourself for them!" Kuon pulled her into his embrace. He inhaled her sweet scent "sometimes I wonder if I truly deserve you"

Kyoko giggled. "don't be stupid!" they both started laughing. In the balcony of the house, Kuu, Julie and Taya smiled happily at the love birds.

Meanwhile in Tokyo

Lory was sitting in his throne at his mansion thinking about Kuon, Kyoko and the Hizuri's. then he suddenly got an idea! "I got it! Sebastian!" then his servant Sebastian entered. "yes your highness?"

"I have an idea and I need your help …"

In Hong Kong

A man is at the airport waiting to his plane. He's feels excited yet worried at the same time. 'its been a while since I last went to Japan but I need to know more about this 'Tsuruga Ren' guy…'
