DISCLAMER: Mai-Hime doesn't belong to me but the almost steamy *ehem* belongs to me. Or should I say, I experienced? Rated M! (yey!)
CHAPTER 7: SPARKS FLY
Even before Shizuru opened her eyes, she remembered the night before. Betrayal etched at Natsuki's face. A pimp now Shizuru. She could still hear Natsuki's venomous voice as she accused her and the stinging pain in her palm as she slapped Natsuki's face. Her heart thundered painfully in her chest. She didn't even listen to Natsuki's whole explanation why she broke up with her.
Your father. He was blackmailing me.
Father, she thought. Is it true? Was it really your fault why Natsuki left me? Shizuru could feel her throat burning with emotions. After all these years of wondering and second guessing Shizuru finally got her answer. Shizuru knew her father is capable of blackmailing her ex-girlfriend because he is one of the most powerful men back then. But that was a past now, after she left her family their business took a dive. Shizuru didn't want anything to do with her father who can't accept her as a gay. After the humiliating declaration of bankruptcy, her father killed himself and that almost sealed her faith. Losing everything almost pushed her to kill herself. No. She was trying to kill herself but Reito stopped her just in time. Now, this time, Reito needs her help and she'll do everything to help him, even hurting the only woman that she ever love.
She didn't want to think this now; she needs to focus at their mission this coming Friday. They need to plan their next step carefully or someone could get killed. Sighing, she opened her eyes. It's still dark outside so she reached for her phone to check the time, seeing that it's only past four am she decided to get out of the bed. Reito stirred, she's not ready to face him so reached out for his hair and gently combed it with her fingers. Reito sighed and settled back to sleep. Sensing that it's safe to get up, she slipped out of the comforter.
Natsuki was not in her bed; that means she's awake. Shizuru heaved a sigh; she's still not ready to face the woman. It's been five years but those five years were still not enough to mend their broken hearts. Why do they have to see each other now? Shizuru mumbled to herself. There are still so many unanswered questions that she needs to ask. Why now? She asked again, this time with sadness. A soft sob escaped her lips and she trembled.
There was a suffocating feeling of terror and the sick feeling of being held down by her father and his threatening voice booming in her dreams. The same nightmare, always the same, and she knew she needs to wake herself up to stop it from swallowing her. But she saw her face, she heard her own high-pitched scream, the terrified girl she'd been, struggling, pleading with her father as he raped her again and again. "No. No. No!" Natsuki tried to run away. "I'm done with this. I'm fucking done with you!"
It would happen all over again. The disgusting sound of her moaning father, the tearing pain below her hips as her father defiled his own daughter and she saw her. Shizuru's evil delight as she shouted, "Auction is now open! The starting bid would be five thousand dollars!"
A thunderous yell of amounts was shouted while her father continued to rape her. Darkness was closing around her and she moaned, unable to shake away the gripping terror of nightmare and darkness that was choking her.
"Wake up Natsuki! You need to fucking wake up! Breathe!" Shizuru's voice and her rough shakes finally got through her. Natsuki sucked in air and jumped away from the shaken woman in front of her.
"It's just a dream. A dream." Natsuki chanted while she staggered away from Shizuru. "I need water. Oh god, I need water."
Shizuru stood frozen as she watched Natsuki tripped herself up and fall to the floor. Natsuki's scream had chilled her to the bone and she could feel her hands shaking. She didn't know how to approach to the wounded woman. It's hard to trust someone when your own father betrayed you. Realization hits Shizuru. She was raped. Natsuki was raped by her own father. Oh my God.
"The dreams." Natsuki choked, curled into a ball and whimpered and that snapped Shizuru in her frozen state, "Be still Natsuki." Shizuru cleared the rising bile in her throat. She moved towards her, "You had a nightmare."
"Stay away from me. Go away. Stay away." Natsuki gasp for air as if she is drowning. She was freezing and she couldn't stop the tremors that shook her body. Natsuki covered her mouth and rocked herself. "Get fucking out of here."
"Let me help you back in the couch." As far as Shizuru's concerned, Natsuki was warped back into her childhood, a child who needed her care. As she put Natsuki into a chair, she took Natsuki's fallen jacket and wrapped it around her shoulder. Natsuki's teeth were chattering and her pupils were dilated from shock.
"I'll get you some water." She turned on her heel, striding into Reito's kitchen. Cold sweat rolled into her temple and she wiped it with her shaking hands. She gripped the handle of the refrigerator to steady herself. She wanted blood. Bile rose from her throat at the sudden rage, for the first time in her life, Shizuru wanted to kill someone. Her sweet Natsuki. A sob of despair escaped through her, Shizuru could feel herself losing her composure and wiped her mouth with the sudden taste of metal. She bit her lips, frustrated she dragged her fingers through her hair. After a few steady breaths, she took out some water for Natsuki.
Shizuru found her still curled up tight, trembling. Emotions passed through her, hatred for Natsuki's father, sorrow for the little girl who was supposed to be protected by the one who betrayed and abused her, and guilt for not knowing it sooner.
"Drink this." She brought the glass filled with water to her lips.
"I don't want—"
"Drink it or I'll gladly pour it down to your throat." Shizuru hissed.
Instead of retorting, Natsuki sobbed like a child. Upset, Shizuru gathered her in her lap.
"Shizuru." Natsuki shuddered violently then she clasped Shizuru's neck tighter.
"Hush. It's just a dream Natsuki," Shizuru held her tighter. "You're safe now. No one's going to hurt you now."
"He keeps coming back. He's supposed to be dead. He's dead. Why won't he leave me alone? I'm trying to live my life now; I'm doing everything I can just to move on. I have to move on, I need to fucking move on with my life. Oh god." Natsuki wept.
She continued to rub Natsuki's back to chase away the cold while she whimpered continuously. "He keeps coming back; he keeps raping me in my dreams. Someone make him stop, oh please."
"Jesus Christ." Shizuru gripped her more tightly and she found herself helpless.
"Make it stop Shizuru, please I'm begging you," Nasuki said with a strangled voice. "Kill me, do everything you want just make it stop.
"Are you bloody insane?!"
"I—I can't go on like this. My god, I just wanted to make it stop Shizuru."
"Don't you dare" Shizuru's voice was laced with Kyoto-ben accent, low and dangerous.
"Please—"
Shizuru grabs her by the shoulders and shook her. "Have you lost your fucking mind?" Natsuki visibly flinched but she could careless, she needs to fight for Natsuki's sanity.
"You want to throw this all away? You did everything to accomplish what you are right now and now you are telling me to kill you? You must be mad, no strike that out. You are a bloody coward." Shizuru gripped Natsuki's arm and pushed her away.
Shizuru strode away from Natsuki, she could feel her control snapping one by one. "If I could just go back in time and kill your father with my own fucking hands I would gleefully do it for you Natsuki but I can't." Her crimson eyes brimmed with tears. "But right now, all I can do for you is to support you and bring you back to the present. He's dead but you are alive, I know it's not easy to go through that but please," Shizuru pleaded. "You need to fight this Natsuki. You need to live, there is so much more worth living for."
Natsuki looked down and squeeze her tears back. "I'm sorry," She whispered apologetically. Beaten, Natsuki pressed a hand to her temple and fought back the remaining demons in her consciousness. "I feel like an idiot," She mumbled.
With a sigh, Shizuru knelt in front of her and grasp her cold hands. "You're not, I can't blame you Natsuki, and you'd been through hell." She linked her fingers with Natsuki's. "How old are you when…" She hesitated.
"As long as I can remember," Natsuki answered quietly. She slowly rubbed Shizuru's palm as she choose her words carefully. "I—" Natsuki swallowed before answering. "It was a necessity for him but I knew from the first time he touched me there, it was wrong. Completely wrong."
Natsuki rubbed her mouth, she wasn't good in this. The logical part of her doesn't want her to spill her secrets but deep inside her, the little girl who had been betrayed needed this more than anything ever.
"I told my mom what father did to me but she didn't believe me. My mom, she's a nurse," Natsuki rubbed her chest again, trying to quell her panic attack. "She was always leaving at night due to her work and my father—"
Natsuki swallowed hard before she whispered "At first he wasn't pushy about it, he likes to hold me close and he keeps kissing my head. Then he started to watch porn even though he knew that I'm around. I keep avoiding him because I knew he was touching himself while watching. I kept telling myself that my father was not doing anything bad, that he loves me and I kept convincing myself." She fought to make her voice sound normal.
"One afternoon I took a nap," A tear rolled to her cheeks. "I woke up and—" Natsuki bit her trembling lips before answering. "He was touching my breast."
Shizuru cursed. "I pushed him, telling him to stop, that it's not right but he didn't stop. I was screaming and crying begging him to stop. He tore my clothes Shizuru." Natsuki heard her voice hitched. "He rammed his fingers in me. It hurt badly; it felt like everything inside me was tearing apart."
Shizuru stood abruptly, she wanted to Natsuki to stop but the woman needed her to hear the rest of it. She could feel her head pounding with unimaginable hatred, she needed to hurt someone god forbid her, Shizuru needed to kill Natsuki's father one more time.
"That day he raped me for the first time. I told myself that he got what he wanted, that he'll stop now that he raped me but he didn't. He kept coming back, every night; every time my mom would go to work he kept coming back."
Shizuru reached for her hand. "That's enough Natsuki."
"No, please let me finish." Natsuki squeezed her hand. "When they died, I was relieved. I know it was wrong but I felt relieved, that finally it will stop. I was wrong to feel relieved—"
"Bullshit Natsuki! Wrong? Are you feeling guilty because they died and you lived? That's bullshit, bullshit, bullshit!"
"Shizuru—"
"He was a monster Natsuki he deserves to die; he deserves to rot in hell. Bloody hell, if he isn't dead I would kill him myself! You were a child! They were supposed to protect you! Goddamn them but they were supposed to love you!" Shizuru was trembling from anger.
"It's still wrong Shizuru they are my parents," Natsuki replied weakly.
"Your father treated you like an animal, he stole your innocence, and he stripped you of your humanity." Shizuru gritted her teeth. "He defiled you Natsuki, you weren't his daughter to him. If they didn't die what do you think would have happened to you?"
Natsuki looked at her. "I'm being stupid right?" She gave Shizuru a pathetic smile.
Sighing, Shizuru took her face. "Totally but," Shizuru leaned forward, kissed her damp forehead. "Yours is kind of good stupidity."
Natsuki snorted. "That is so lame." She stifled her yawn but the older woman noticed it.
"Go back to sleep Natsuki, It's still early." Natsuki shivered. "I don't want to."
"Why?" Shizuru asked, puzzled at the sudden fear at Natsuki's eyes. The younger woman mumbled. "Why?" She asked again softly.
"I'm scared to sleep again Shizuru." Natsuki avoided her eyes. Her heart broke at the sight of Natsuki, she leaned and gathered her into her arms.
"I'll be here; we can sleep together here in the couch," She suggested.
Natsuki hesitated, she looked small and sad. "Are you sure it's okay?"
"Of course, now be a good girl and scoot backward." Both women settled down in the couch and Shizuru tucked the blanket more firmly around them. Natsuki released a deep sigh and drifted back to sleep. Holding her close, Shizuru leaned in to brush feather-light kisses across Natsuki's forehead and cheek. Shizuru closed her eyes and prayed to gods to let Natsuki be dreamless even just for tonight.
Shizuru jerked awake a little later, not knowing if it was minutes that had passed or hours, but the warmth of Natsuki's skin was still under her fingers and she stroked absently.
She knew they have to wake up sooner because of Reito. It would be totally awkward to be caught by her boyfriend getting comfy with her ex-girlfriend. She snorted, her sense of humor is really a bit tad off and downright weird.
"Hey Natsuki, wake up. It's almost sunrise." Natsuki's eyes flutter and she moaned.
"Five more minutes." Natsuki said and snuggled to her chest.
Shizuru blushed, and suppressed a chuckle. Seeing Natsuki being so adorable makes her heart flutter like a teenager.
"If I didn't know you better Nat-su-ki, I might think she just likes to sleep in my breast. So cute!" She giggled.
Natsuki groaned. She rubbed her eyes, blinked sleepily; she stretched like a contented cat and yawned noisily. "It's been a while since I slept like this." Natsuki yawned again.
"Maybe we could sleep together again sometime." Shizuru teased her and wiggled her eyebrows.
"Oh my Shizuru, if I didn't know you better I might think you're flirting." Natsuki shot back and grinned sleepily to her.
"What if I am?" Shizuru grinned back. Both of their gazes locked and their smiles faded as electricity sparked between them.
Caution flashed in her mind as Natsuki slowly leaned forward. Shizuru knew that Natsuki intended to kiss her but be damned she didn't care anymore. Her heart thundered and her breath hitched as Natsuki hovered at her lips, she swallowed thickly. She could feel her desire shot between her thighs and her lips tingled at the sudden nearness of Natsuki's lips.
"I'm gonna kiss you Shizuru," Natsuki said huskily. "I need to kiss you. I'm gonna go out of my mind if I stop myself." Natsuki cupped her face. "I-"
"Shut up already and kiss me." Shizuru dragged Natsuki's nape towards her and dipped in for the kiss.
Shizuru ran her fingers through Natsuki's silky locks and kissed her hard. Natsuki kissed her back, Shizuru felt Natsuki's tongue dance across her lips, begging for entrance to her mouth. Shizuru's lips were wild, greedy from the sudden sweetness of Natsuki's mouth on hers. Shizuru wrapped her arms around Natsuki's neck, her legs around Natsuki's waist. Shizuru could feel herself losing control, kissing Natsuki is not enough. She needs more.
Natsuki's kisses moved from her lips down to her neck, and Shizuru shuddered. A ripple of pleasure ran through her as Natsuki pulls her shirt up to expose her breast and licks her hungrily. Shizuru gasped loudly, she gripped Natsuki's hair tightly and she could feel her center twitching from anticipation.
"Natsuki you're driving me crazy." She gasped once more as Natsuki's mouth enclosed her nipple. Unable to stop herself, Shizuru rocked her waist towards Natsuki and they both moaned from pleasure.
"Uh, Shizuru? Are you there?" A voice from above called and they both got pale. They jumped away from each other and arranged their clothes to look decent. Natsuki quickly studied the woman in front of her and she could still see desire swirling around her crimson eyes. She needed to go out, Natsuki thought. I don't know if could stop myself from touching her again, she tastes so fucking sweet. Quietly, Natsuki turned her back to slipped out of the front door to avoid suspicion from Kanzaki.
"Wait, Natsuki." Too late, Natsuki disappeared. Still trembling from desire, Shizuru smoothed her hair and clothes and took a deep breath hoping to quell her out of raging libido.
"Good morning Shizuru." Reito greeted her. "You're early." He kissed her hair. "Where is Kuga?"
Shizuru cleared her throat before answering. "I'm actually looking for her." Her eyes darted away, she knew she was being obvious but she can't help but feel guilty.
Reito paused, he knew something was amiss. "Are you alright?" His eyebrow arched as if asking her for an explanation.
"You wouldn't want to know it Reito." Shizuru chuckled while blushing. "I'll make some breakfast, just holler if you want something." Shizuru walked past him.
"Well I want something," Reito grinned and chased her while Shizuru laughs quietly. "Tell me what happened dammit!"
Natsuki sent a rock flying as she kicked it with frustration. Rational thinking seemed lost when it comes to Shizuru, she cursed more loudly due to her pent up frustration. Her past, her feelings, her private thoughts: Natsuki revealed all of them just because she dropped her guard down, because of her consistent nightmares. "Fuck, fuck, fuck."
Her phone rang out of the blue, Natsuki got even more annoyed when she saw who was calling. Nao. Don't trust anyone in there. Natsuki groaned as she remembered Nao's warning.
"Too late Nao, we almost fuck each other like rabid rabbits," She mumbled. Giving up, she answered her phone.
"Hello?" Natsuki answered gruffly.
"Good morning to you too Natsuki-chan. Aren't we chirpy today?" She could hear Nao's snicker from the other line.
"Not now Yuuki, did something happen?" Natsuki cleared her throat.
Nao paused at the other line, Natsuki cringed, Talk about obvious, nice going Natsuki. "Hmmm… nothing happened here Natsuki, by the way how is Shizuru?"
Stunned with the sudden change of topic, she replied too quickly. "Fujino's okay, she's fine and great." Images of Shizuru's naked chest flashed into her mind and she felt herself flushed with embarrassment.
"So she's still good at bed I take it?" Nao said deadpanned.
Natsuki choked and wheezed for air. "I don't know what you're talking about." She said, but Nao only snickered.
"Well she went from Shizuru to Fujino too quickly," Nao teased her. "And the last time we talked, you were defending her honor from me, as if I'm the one who's at fault." Nao feigned a hurt voice.
"Shut up," Natsuki clenched her teeth, embarrassed at being caught. "Nothing happened you dumb ass."
"Oh! But I think your voice says otherwise." Nao sniggered. Natsuki groaned, she knew if she decided to tell Nao about it, she wouldn't hear the end of it.
Deciding quickly, Natsuki changed the topic. "What did you found out about Shizuru?"
"Shizuru now huh? There's something happened there, definitely."
Completely flushed, Natsuki stuttered. "Nothing happened! We didn't have sex! It was just—a," Natsuki muttered incoherent words.
Amused, Nao asked her. "A what?" She could feel her laugher bubbling in her throat, but she cleared her throat to stop herself from embarrassing Natsuki more.
"A—A make out. Dammit, it's just heat. I was c-carried away because—uh"
"Because she's gorgeous?" Nao offered.
"No, not that, shit. What I mean is yeah, she's so freaking gorgeous but it's not the reason why we ended up l-like that."
"Really? Well, why don't you give me a good reason why you ended up making out with her beside the fact that she's so freaking gorgeous."
"Stop mimicking me." Natsuki spat at her.
"I'm not mimicking you, I'm not a parrot," Nao said indignantly.
Veins bulged on Natsuki's forehead as she stammered for a clever comeback, but she almost threw her phone when she heard Nao's laughter from the other line.
"Don't hang up! I won't make fun of you anymore. Oh man, you are so easy to string." Nao snorted once more and Natsuki considered finding the woman to teach her some lesson.
Natsuki let her laugh for a little while, making a tremendous effort to stop her temper from killing Nao. Hearing Nao's laughter died, she asked. "So what did you found out about Fu—Shizuru?"
Nao hoot once more, "Damn I'm dying in here."
"Want me to help you with that?" Natsuki huffed.
"No thanks, I'm more that capable of endangering myself especially when it comes to you." Nao cleared her throat. "I found the same thing Natsuki." Nao sighed, tired from laughing hard.
"Same criminal background, same story and same answers." Nao paused.
"But?" Natsuki could feel that there's more.
Nao doesn't want to give her partner hope that there's more than meets the eye but she felt it too, it felt like, "Scripted." Nao said.
"I talked to someone from the inside, at first, he was eagerly giving me information about Fujino, and then when I asked about him for more details he clamped up. Saying it's not our jurisdiction, blah-blah-blah but we both know that is bullshit."
Natsuki's breath hitched, hope blared from her heart but they need to be objective so she asked Nao for more details. "You know what ticked me off? Spooks are not generally cooperative with us Nao, but when you asked them, they were surprisingly accommodating which led me to believe that there is some cover up."
Nao felt ashamed, she didn't even give it a thorough consideration why was Shizuru is in the picture. She was quick to judge Shizuru's role, but being in the FBI made her more suspicious at other people. It's better to be paranoid that dead, she thought.
Playing a devil's advocate, she asked Natsuki. "Maybe because they thought we were just checking up at the players around this case."
"No, definitely not." Natsuki paused, something clicked in her head. "They were making sure that were not gonna dig her background anymore that's why they gave you what we wanted. They want us to stop." Natsuki paced, and she asked.
"Did you dig around for more?"
"Yeah, I asked more people from spooks but suddenly they're not talking to us. Dead silence."
A cover up. Shit. "We need to back off Nao." Dread course through her body, she was so focused on finding the truth about Shizuru that she didn't even consider the consequences of their action. "If Reito found this out she could be in danger, we need to warn her." She almost ran to the direction of Kanzaki's house when Nao shouted.
"Idiot! We are not even sure if she's an undercover! Don't you dare rat us out!" Natsuki struggled, and she reasoned. "But we exposed her fake background! Reito could take Shizuru the fall and cover his tracks."
"I'm not a noob in these things Natsuki, learn to trust me more," Nao said. Annoyed, she said. "I covered our tracks okay? The people I asked were my friends not just anyone. You're irritating when it comes to Shizuru." Nao huffed as if insulted.
Releasing a relieved sigh, Natsuki rubbed her temple. "Are you sure? Can you trust them in this?"
"Of course you idiot! They are my friends! Now it's your turn to trust me."
Natsuki chuckled. "I'm sorry," She sighed and glanced once more at Kanzaki's house. "It's just I had a one heck of a day."
"Wow, but the day has just started Natsuki. I think you are in for more." She heard Natsuki laughed a little at the other line.
"I do hopefully not." She paused; she considered if she could share what happened between her and Shizuru. "We almost had s-sex Nao." Natsuki softly said, she felt her belly flutter.
"It's SEX Natsuki, why the heck are you stammering with the word SEX."
Natsuki groaned out loud. "Shut up! Someone might hear you!"
"Don't worry about that, once we finished this assignment I'll tell the agents here that you're growing up fast and you almost had sex." Nao cracked.
"Fuck you Nao!" Natsuki hissed.
"Sorry," Nao snorted. "What's wrong with that? I thought you still love her?"
Love, Natsuki swallowed heavily. Overwhelmed with the sudden reminder, she dragged her finger through her hair. She grew up believing she'll never love somebody else except herself. Then Shizuru came, broke her down, and made her understand what her love could bring. She tried to resist, reminding herself that she didn't do love, that eventually Natsuki will fall out of love and she'll just break her heart.
But Shizuru just laughed at her, she gave Natsuki her most tender smile and told her that she's too deeply in love with her now to stop. Natsuki wanted to tell her that she's not worth the risk but instead, she told Shizuru that if she won't go away now, she'll never let her leave forever.
However, Natsuki left her broken. No explanation why Natsuki just disappeared. She promised Shizuru that she'll be her world but she's the one who took it from her.
"Earth to Natsuki, are you still there?" Natsuki shook off her thoughts.
"Aren't you wondering why Shizuru is in league with Reito?"
Nao paused to consider her question. "Is it because it was international prostitution ring?"
"Yeah, but," Natsuki gathered her thoughts before she answered. "Why did she drag us in this case if she was with the Spooks?"
"Maybe she wants us to arrest Reito and be done with it."
"And take the credit for it? I don't think so." Natsuki got quiet.
"Well whatever her reasons is, that doesn't change the fact that we are here now. We might as well arrest someone." Nao chuckled.
Natsuki shook her head and gave up analyzing their situation. "We got no choice but to wait for more details about this coming Friday. I'll ask Kanzaki where will we go, and hopefully he will give me some straight answer."
"Oh, about that, we are ready to go anytime. Just make sure you text us beforehand okay? Don't go charging there like a bull, you are not bulletproof." Natsuki rolled her eyes.
'Yeah, yeah whatever. I'll text you later." And she hangs up her phone. Armed with new information, Natsuki walked back in the house to see Shizuru.
Soft laughter echoed when Natsuki entered the house. Following the sound, Natsuki ended at the kitchens doorway. She took a deep breath and was about to greet the couple when she heard Shizuru.
"Hush Reito, you're acting like a horny teenager." Natsuki heard Kanzaki's snort.
What are they talking about? She could feel the sudden possessiveness gripped her emotions. Is Kanzaki trying to get into Shizuru's pants? Furiously jealous, Natsuki stepped in. Seeing her sudden arrival, Reito clamped his mouth shut. Natsuki didn't care if they were having some private conversation; she wanted Shizuru all for her. Annoyed, Natsuki stared at Shizuru's crimson eyes.
Arousal smacked her groin; she could feel her throat getting parched from Shizuru's mouth. Electricity surged between their heated gazes; Natsuki could feel her desire pulsating in every inch of her body. Someone cleared his throat, unwillingly; Natsuki tore her gaze from Shizuru.
"Good morning?" Kanzaki offered her, Shizuru elbowed him as if sharing a private joke. Before she could answer him, Shizuru's phone rang.
Seeing the name of the caller, Shizuru quickly answered her phone. "Hello? What's up?"
An unknown emotion passed through her crimson eyes. In her trained eyes, she could see the rapid anxiety course through Shizuru's body. "I see," Shizuru answered quietly. Natsuki almost flinched when Shizuru stared at her eyes.
Cold and unemotional bloodied eyes. Natsuki steeled herself from the unwavering eyes. "I'll see to it that she'll understand…our point." And Shizuru hangs up her phone never breaking their eye contact.
"Reito sweetie," Natsuki could practically see Shizuru's sarcasm dripping from every word she said. "Can I talk to Natsuki in private?"
Sensing a ticking bomb, Reito quickly agreed and left, Natsuki saw sympathy when Reito glanced at her way. Scared, Natsuki pocketed her hands and braced for the incoming storm.
"Do you know what you're doing?!" Shizuru snarled at her. Natsuki was in trouble. Real trouble.
To be continued…
