Chapter 37

Last time on Dragon Ball Z…

Vegeta bared his teeth and stared hatefully into Bulma's blue orbs. She was challenging him and he knew he was going to lose. "Why didn't she just answer my question? Why does she have to make everything so difficult? I hate her! I hate this planet!" Scrunching his nose with self-disgust, Vegeta growled one last time before soaring thought the broken side window.

She wanted to collapse against the steering wheel. In fact, it was taking all of her will power not to. Kami only knows how much she wanted to just bawl her eyes out and scream and vent all of this sorrow and anger she felt. But Bulma Briefs was no longer that kind of woman. For she knew that he saw that as weakness and now more than ever she needed to prove to Vegeta that she was not weak. Bulma growled and violently turned on the hover craft, angry tears falling down her face. Quickly she took off into the sky after Vegeta's fleeing figure. "I'll show him! I'm not going to let that arrogant son-of-a-bitch get away!"

His entire body was practically smoking with rage and self-loathing. The woman had not only defied and challenged him but won! "That bitch! That fucking loud mouth bitch!" The lightness he had felt only minutes before because of his new found purpose in life had completely vanished. His gut was full of contradicting emotions and it seemed like there was a river of fire running through his Saiyans veins. "Why didn't I just kill her? I didn't even hurt her at all! What has happened to me?" He felt so lost… even more than when he had been beaten by the androids. But the part that hurt him the most was that she had not answered his question. The thought that Bulma, the only living thing he had felt anything for sense he became Frieza's killing machine, had more faith in Kakkarot, his hated rival, made him go a little mad inside. He knew that she cared for Kakkarot and loved him as a brother, but he had always been able to suppress the jealousy in his heart. But it was attacking him head on now, He didn't want her caring for old friend, he didn't want her to love him or even look at him!

Vegeta was so lost in his jealous thoughts that he did not even sense Bulma speeding past and swerving her vehicle into his path. Luckily, he had been able to stop before he ran into her but he was in total bewilderment. "What the hell? How did she get past me?"

His onyx eyes met with the flaming blue pair inside car. She had never looked sexier to him; her cheeks flushed red with anger, her gorgeous eyes moist and burning, her luscious lips pursed, and the rest of her body tense like a cat ready to pounce. He chastised himself for the thoughts running through his head but his body still did not cool down. The fact that she had come after him made him admire her courage and it was taking everything he had not to fuck her and kill her at the same time.

"We aren't through here, Vegeta!" She shouted through gritted teeth, completely unaware of the primal lust and rage the Saiyan felt for her at that moment.

"Woman, go home! I don't want to talk to you right now!" Vegeta barked. In his current unstable state he wasn't sure if he would be able to control his temper. He now knew that he could not kill the woman but he was still able to hurt her.

Bulma's brows squished together in irately, "I don't give a flying fuck, your royal dick-ness! We are finishing this conversation! If are SO strong then stop running away! It's time to face your problems Vegeta!"

"MY PROBLEMS?" He gaped at the woman's audacity.

"Yes, you have a real problem!" She snarled.

"And tell me, Bulma, since when have you been without problems, huh? When did you become the little miss perfect? You are always pushing the blame on me but you have PLENTY of faults, woman!" His infamous smirk crept along his chiseled face as he watched her jaw drop a little in disbelief.

"Don't you dare push this on me-"

"Oh I think I will because I finally figured out your game! You know what you are? You're a yapping, high horse, smart ass wench who is attracted to 'dangerous men' because you think that you are special enough to change them!" He shouted as he ripped open the door to the hover craft.

"HOW DARE YOU!" She shrieked but inside her heart began to twist in guilt.

"Well you can't fix me, Bulma, because I am not broken! You and this ridiculous planet are the ones who need to reform! Fuck you! How dare you think that you are so superior to me! I am not some animal for you to tame, Woman!" He was in her face now, once again nose to nose and challenging her just as she had done to him.

Bulma felt the blood rushing to her face as she stared into his eyes. Kami how she wanted to say he was wrong but the truth was that he was right. All this time she had been saying that she was going to tame him but she had twisted the idea in her mind so that it didn't sound as harsh as his words had just been. But they were the same and it was her turn to lose the challenge, her turn to feel bad about herself. Vegeta knew he had won as soon as she bit her lip and looked away from him. "You disgust me," he snorted.

He began to turn away when he felt her soft little hand pathetically holding onto his forearm. Her face was downcast since she was unable to look him in the eye but he could see the innumerable tears running down her cheek. "I'm sorry," She whispered softly.

"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!" Vegeta's mind screamed, "How do you do that? How are you always able to turn yourself from the criminal into the victim in a matter of 2 seconds?" One voice inside of him commanded that he leave her. She had hurt him after all. But another force embedded within him demanded that he forgive her. But he found himself unable to do either of these things. He couldn't just leave her but there was certainly no way that pathetic little apology was worthy of his forgiveness! "Then answer the question; me or Kakkarot?"

"I can't answer that Vegeta!" She cried out in frustration. "I want to say you! I really do! But when you had a chance to save me today you didn't! How can you ask me to believe in you more than Goku when you flat out told me that you are not going to protect meand your son?"

"So you choose Kakkarot then!" He whispered in a dangerous tone.

"No! I told you I'm not choosing! I'm not going to get caught in the middle of you and Goku- I have nothing to do with it! I gave you a gravity room, training gear, shelter, food, love, and a son! I don't know what else I can do to prove to you that I believe in you!" Bulma shouted.

Vegeta looked at her without emotion but his soul was in utter turmoil. Without thinking he lifted his gloved hand to brush away a tear trickling down her cheek. "What have you done to me, Woman?" In that moment his face softened and his eyes were not empty but sincere. Then as quickly as it came it disappeared and his walls were up once again.

That one moment made the blue haired beauty fall in love with him all over again. Even though he had been choking her just minutes ago, she found herself unable to feel anything but passionate love for this cold man. It was then that she realized that she loved him 'untamed'; even if he was a mass murderer who enjoyed killing and would probably never tell her that he loved her back. "I could ask the same of you," She whispered.

They stared at each other in silent understanding. "Don't follow me," He finally muttered and flew out the window.
