Leah's POV

The mere fact Vincent was my mate was still pretty surreal to me. But hey I'm not complaining in my opinion I was one lucky son of a bitch to have Vincent freaking Valentine as my mate. Reeve finally got back in touch with me and within a week I would endure orientation at the WRO.

Vincent also decided he wanted to take me on our first date. Actually we were going to be staying at Cosmo Canyon for the weekend. Nanaki's home was my second favorite place on Gaia so I looked forward to going there. Ghost was coming too since she was pretty much inseparable from Nanaki.

At the moment I was finishing up deliveries before I went back to the apartment to pack for this weekend. Cid was taken us to the canyon via the Shera.

"Yo I'm done with my deliveries" I greeted Cloud and Tifa when I entered the bar.

"Your just eager to get your weekend started" Cloud joked.

"Zip it Spiky" I reprimanded the blonde.

The others weren't surprised I was now together with Vincent. Yuffie glomped me hard when she heard the news.

"Don't make fun of her Cloud" Tifa scolded him.

Cloud and Tifa actually began dating just recently. I helped encourage Cloud to confess to Tifa and the stubborn blonde eventually admitted his feelings to Tifa and the martial artist had cried.

"Anything I should be aware of at Cosmo Canyon?" I asked giving Cloud some paperwork from my deliveries.

"Besides the monsters not really it's a cool place" Tifa answered. "It's even more beautiful at night"

"Indeed it is" Nanaki interjected as he walked over with Ghost. "There is something I wanted to ask you Leah"

"Sure what's up?"

The wolf and lion hybrid looked to Ghost and my furry friend gave Nanaki an affectionate lick on his cheek.

"I wish to have Ghost as my mate and wanted to have your blessing"

My eyes widened at his revelation.

"You don't need to worry about her leaving you for now" Nanaki continued. "We are going to court one another until we feel ready to take the next step which is when I leave my mating scent on her and vice versa"

"Hell yeah you have my blessing" I replied. I bent down to Nanaki's level and placed a hand on top of his head. "Just promise me you'll take care of her"

"You have my word I will" Nanaki promised.

He then turned to Ghost and placed his head against hers. I left the bar so I could go back home and pack. Waiting outside my door was my boyfriend.

"How long have you been waiting here?" I greeted my mate.

Vincent smiled before answering.

"Not long"

He gave a quick welcome kiss before we went inside the apartment. Since it was only for the weekend I didn't need to pack a lot of stuff. While I packed my things as well as some things for Ghost I heard Vincent talking on the phone. Yes my mate finally got one with Cloud's help.

"I guess your stuff is already on the airship?" I asked the former Turk coming into the living room.

"Yes" was my mate's reply.

I didn't know where Vincent lived and frankly it wasn't my business until he was ready to tell me. Through the mate bond I noticed Vincent was nervous about something.

"Everything alright? Because your nervous about something"

Vincent chuckled before pulling something out from a pocket. My eyes widened when I recognized my I-Phone.

It was completely repaired!

"Not long after you arrived on Gaia, Cloud found this and decided to get it repaired"

I caught Vincent off guard when I hugged him. I definitely would thank Cloud and whoever helped repair my phone later. Vincent kissed my forehead and returned my now repaired I-Phone to me.

"By the way I noticed something called Apple TV on it can you show me what it is later?" my mate wondered.

"Absolutely"

Fifteen minutes later Vincent and I were on board the Shera heading to Cosmo Canyon.

"Hey Leah I heard you caught a Black Chocobo is that accurate?" Cid asked.

Of course he was piloting and I had been enjoying the scenery from the viewing platform.

"Yep she's at the farm being looked after by Tifa"

"Your lucky those black ones and the gold ones are rare" the pilot stated. "From what Vincent says yours has a good temperament"

Chocobos were not fun to be around when they got angry. I lucked out with a well behaved Chocobo but I've seen Nyx lose her cool around other Chocobos when they stole her greens. Cid and I exchanged some more small talk before I went to see what Vincent was up to.

"Penny for your thoughts" I teased my significant other when I was beside him.

"Chaos is annoying me" he informed me.

"So you can communicate with him huh?"

"Sadly yes he's wants to show himself to you at some point but I'm against it"

I snorted and took Vincent's gauntlet hand into mine.

"That demon is part of who you are and I actually wouldn't mind seeing him whenever he feels ready"

Ghost was about add something but I shot her a look. A half hour later the Shera landed outside of Cosmo Canyon and I was definitely taken aback by its beauty. To say my mind was blown was a damn understatement.

Later.

"Vincent what's going on?"

The two of us had been stargazing until the ex-Turk stood up.

"I'm going to let Chaos out he won't stop bugging me until I do so"

I got to my feet and placed a hand into his gloved human one.

"I'm not afraid" I promised him.

Vincent smiled before he backed away from me so he could have plenty of room to transform. I watched as my mate transformed into the winged demon. Soon Chaos stood in Vincent's place and I approached the demon. Inside me both my animal halves stirred in excitement at seeing Chaos.

My body acted on its own accord and before I knew it I was kissing the lips of Chaos. Chaos purred in delight and wrapped his arms around my waist possessively. The kiss didn't last long because I sensed Vincent was ready to regain control. A few minutes later my mate was back.

"You made him very happy doing that" Vincent notified me referring to when I kissed Chaos.

"You look sexy as the demon anyway" I teased my boyfriend.

Vincent chuckled before shaking his head. He then picked me up and soon he was walking back to main part of the canyon carrying me in his arms bridal style. I blushed before I buried my head against his chest and closed my eyes. Vincent kissed my forehead in return.

Is it just me or am I the only one who finds Chaos sexy?
