Author's note: oh thank you all for reviewing and I'm glad that you like it so.I guess you see that I don't have much to write LOL Ne ways I hope you like this chap.
"Oh god no."Sakura screamed running over to the bed followed by Syaoran. " it bit her, it bit her" Sakura repeated seeing the bite mark on her leg, Ying Fa's body was sweating and her breaths coming in short gasps. Syaoran picked up the phone and told his mother to get a doctor right away; he quickly checked Syaoran and saw that he hadn't been bitten.
"Get a grip Sakura use the heal card now or she'll die" he yelled knocking her out of her reverie. When everyone rushed into the room, Wei had caught the snake that was headed down stairs.
"Heal Ying Fa, heal card" Sakura screamed through tears, it came out and wiped away the poison but couldn't do anything about the fever. "Thank you" Sakura whispered to it before it returned. Yelen got a wet wash clothe for her fore head and ushered everyone out of the room when the doctor arrived. Yelen took Syaoran down stairs not wanting him to worry about his mother and sister, while Xiao Lang comforted Sakura who was still crying.
"She will be fine tomorrow, she just needs to rest" the doctor stated packing his stuff up. Sakura went over to Ying Fa's sleeping side, sitting there she brushed her hair off her face.
"Thank you" Xiao Lang said before he left. "It wasn't Celesta, I didn't feel anything, and my mother would have felt something"
"I know, someone doesn't want us here, I didn't come here to have this happen" Sakura stated. "I came here seeking help not to have them hurt by someone"
"I will find out who it is, I promise and they are going to pay. We'll put up a shield in this room"
"Ok I'll sleep in here. She could've .what if we hadn't gotten here in time," Sakura said through tears.
"But we did," Xiao Lang said hugging her to him.
"Why would anyone want to hurt them, it's not fair" Sakura cried in his chest. Syaoran was angry, no furious; who ever this person was would pay.
"Why don't you lay her with her, I've got something to take care of. Syaoran will be with me," Xiao Lang said to Sakura who nodded. "I'll come right back here when I'm finished ok" he added when she got under the covers.
"You don't have to worry so much about us," Sakura said not wanting him to neglect his other responsibilities, after all he did have a wife and son.
"No I have to, nothing is more important to me then you and the twins, no one," he stated before leaving. Sakura could feel that he put up a barrier round the room and smiled. He walked down the stairs and into the living room where he could feel is mother and Syaoran's aura.
"Is Ying Fa all right?" Yelen asked looking up from the board game that they were all playing.
"Yes mother, she only has a fever. I want you to gather all the elders and people who live on this property. Everyone is to gather in the courtyard" Xiao Lang stated, Yelen gave him a questioning look but obliged. The only time everyone gathered together was for a celebration or something really important like marriage or birth and even death.
"It's done, everyone is on their way" Yelen said hanging the phone up.
"Thank you" Xiao Lang said lifting Syaoran up. "You're going to see only a mere fraction of your empire," he said to Syaoran who nodded as if he understood. The Li sisters came in wondering why their brother had called everyone together. Yelen stopped them with only one look, as she followed her son through the door, the sisters, Nakuru and kero behind. When they got outside the backyard seemed to stretch on forever with lots of people gathering. Syaoran, the elders and his family where on a stone patio making them able to look down at the people everyone quieted down when he stepped forward. The elders and San were all wondering what he had to say, she being his wife had the right to stand on his left but that's where Syaoran was and Yelen was on his right so she was standing with his sisters.
"I want all of you to know that this is my successor, my only successor. He and his sister are my children, the future of this clan. It is your duty; everyone's duty to make sure they are safe and no harm comes to them. Someone among us has tried to harm them; my daughter is in her room recovering from a snakebite at this very moment, her mother almost getting bite herself. If I find out who is trying to harm them, they will be very sorry. Everyone here knows how I get when something or someone I love is hurt, trust me it will not be a pretty site if I find that person" Syaoran declared load enough for everyone to hear. "That person got away this time but next time he or she will not," he concluded before walking away Syaoran in his arms. San looked at him and the boy he held in his arms, the boy that looked like him so much and felt pure hatred towards the card mistress and her children.
"Eriol what's the matter?" Tomoyo asked seeing him drop his fork.
"She's not here anymore, she's traveling" Eriol answered getting up, he had been feeling Celesta's aura but it just disappeared. Tomoyo followed him into the study where he started to dial Li's number.
"Her fever is dropping fast," Yelen said looking at the thermometer. Sakura, Syaoran and the kids were all having dinner in the room.
"I don't like being sick" Ying Fa said making a face.
"No one likes being sick" Yelen said smiling at her cute face. She was about to leave when the phone rang. Her face turned serious hearing what the person had to say, she hung up and turned to see them all looking at her.
"Who was it mother?" Xiao Lang asked not liking the look on her face.
"That was Eriol, she as disappeared. He said that he isn't sure if she left England or not but we shouldn't take any chances and be on guard" Yelen stated sadly.
"She must have figured out that we weren't in England but how did she know we are here," Sakura said drawing Syaoran to her.
"Maybe she didn't, remember she is also angry with the Li clan but she must have felt you all ready," Xiao Lang said running his hand through his hair.
"Otou-san don't worry, I'll protect you" Ying Fa said sitting in his lap. He couldn't help but smile at her cuteness so much like her mother.
"We'll protect each other," Xiao Lang said hugging her to him.
"I'll go and tell the other's to be on guard," Yelen said before leaving them alone.
"It's past both your bedtimes not because your not home means you can stay up late," Sakura said putting Syaoran on the bed before she went for their pajamas. "Xiao Lang can you brush their teeth?" Sakura asked digging through their suitcase.
"Yeah why didn't you pack their stuff out?" he asked taking them to the bathroom.
"I'll do that right now," Sakura said taking out Ying Fa's clothes then placing them in the drawer, she was about to put her bag away when she saw a framed picture. She took it out and looked at it, it was the picture Takashi had taken at Tomoyo and Eriol's farewell party. She ran her hand over his face before placing it on the dresser "Tomoyo" she whispered smiling. She packed out Syaoran's stuff before she placed the picture on Ying Fa's nightstand. When they came out of the bathroom Sakura dressed while Syaoran went to shower and change.
"Why don't you go change for bed?" Xiao Lang said walking in dressed in green pajamas.
"Yeah, you two go to sleep" Sakura said getting up. "Don't get them all hyper" she added looking at him.
"Scouts honor" he answered smiling sweetly as she left the room. Xiao Lang walked over to the bed smiling evilly at them. They both squealed and hid under the covers when he climbed into the bed. "Come out, come out where ever you are," he said in a scary voice, he grabbed Ying Fa and started to tickle her, Syaoran came from under the covers and jumped onto his back.
Sakura showered and put on pink pajamas identical to the ones Ying Fa had on another creation by Tomoyo. She had a feeling that they didn't listen to a word she and tried to ease drop but she didn't hear anything when she opened the door they were on the bed with Xiao Lang in the middle of the two.
"Didn't I tell you no playing?" Sakura asked looking at their innocent faces.
"How'd ya know?" Xiao Lang asked raising a brow.
"I just know, I know everything," Sakura answered smiling. "You can go to bed, your tired," she added looking at him.
"Good night" Xiao Lang said giving them both a kiss before leaving to his room before he got in bed his door opened with a revealing Ken. "Is something wrong Ken?" he asked looking at the boy that he knew wasn't his son but that didn't mean he didn't love him he just didn't like his mother.
"Papa can you read me a story?" Ken asked his eyes downcast, the little boy had no courage and never spoke to anyone.
"Sure where is your mother?" Xiao Lang asked the boy smiling slightly as he made his way over towards the bed with the book. Syaoran help the four year old onto the bed to sit next to him but before he could start reading the door opened to reveal Ying Fa and Syaoran, they saw Ken in their father's bed and felt somewhat jealous. "I thought you two were in bed?"
"We're not tired yet, we wanted to know if you would tell us a story" Ying Fa asked climbing on the bed with Syaoran.
"Sure I was just about to read Ken one" Xiao Lang smiling ken was on his left, with Ying Fa on his lap and Syaoran on his right as he began to the story. Ying Fa looked at Ken and smiled warmly cuddling up to Xiao Lang, Ken smiled as his cheeks redden a little looking at Ying Fa.
"Where's Ken?" San asked walking into her room only finding the nanny.
"He went to ask master Li to read him a story" she answered.
"Really he must have said yes" San said smiling 'That's my boy, he knows what rightfully belongs to him' she thought starting to change. "Don't go for him unless Xiao Lang calls"
"Yes ma'am" the lady answered frowning.
"Xiao Lang?" Sakura said coming through the door he made that led to their room.
"Hai" he answered from the bed, Sakura looked at him and smiled. All the kids where asleep and he was in the middle of them.
"I came for the twins," Sakura spoke walking over to him.
"Why don't you leave them here they'll be fine unless you don't want to sleep alone" Syaoran stated making Sakura give him a mock glare.
"They can sleep here and I'm not afraid to sleep by myself and besides I still have kero," Sakura said proudly as she left.
"I forgot the mighty Cerberus guardian of the seal" Syaoran said chuckling lightly, she turned and stuck her tongue before closing the door.
Xiao Lang slowly awoke with Ying Fa sleeping on him, Syaoran sleeping beside her and Ken behind him. They were all cuddled up together; he glanced at his watch and saw that he was late for his training.
"Iie otou-san." Ying Fa mumbled holding unto him when he tried to get up.
"Wei is going to kill me" he groaned laying back down. He reached for the phone and dialed down stairs. "Mother?"
"Yes son?" came Yelen's voice.
"Tell Wei that I will be late for training"
"Okay my son, should I have the cook make breakfast for you and the kids? Sakura has all ready eaten with us"
"Hai can you have San come for Ken?"
"He slept with you?"
"Of course, he is my son at least I think he is"
"Okay my son" she said smiling. "I don't think that San likes Sakura"
"She'll just have to get over it" Syaoran said before hanging up. "I'm right where I want to be," he added rubbing Ying Fa's back.
"I don't want her hating us" Sakura spoke looking over at Syaoran, he looked back at her and smiled.
"From the day she walked in on us, she's been furious with you. And now to find out that you bear my children, I was forced into marrying her, there is absolutely no love" Syaoran answered
"Here let me take her soo you can go" Sakura suggested reaching for Ying Fa.
"No let her sleep, Wei won't mind," he said objecting. "Her fever's gone"
"Yeah that's good, she doesn't like staying inside. She's a very outdoor person" Sakura spoke getting out of the bed.
"I hate the fact that I don't know anything about them, that I wasn't there for their first words, when they walked, I wasn't there for anything. At least they call me dad," he stated gently sliding Ying Fa off him.
"I'm sorry, I guess I was selfish wanting them all to myself but I figured that you would have had other children. I didn't want to cause any conflict" Sakura countered looking out the window when a car pulled up, she looked closely at the guy getting out and noticed who it was right off.
"What is it?" Xiao Lang asked walking over to her.
"Paul, I wonder what he's doing here?" Sakura said aloud. "In fact no one knows that I'm here except for Tomoyo and Eriol". They watched him and the people with him take out wardrobe and cameras.
"Looks to me, he wants you to work or maybe he just missed ya" Xiao Lang said leaving the window. "I can take the kids with me so you can work" he added before going to his bathroom. Sakura looked the door and sighed, just what she needed work and she was definitely not in the mood for his flirting.
"Kaa-san?" Ying Fa mumbled waking up along with Syaoran and Ken. "Daddy?"
"Hai. Get up you two, daddy is going to take you with him" Sakura said walking over to them. "Hello Ken?" she said looking at the boy but he didn't say anything just looked at her. "Come in" she said when there was a knock on the door.
"I'm sorry but I'm here for Ken, I'm his nanny" the lady walking over to the bed. "I didn't mean to interrupt you misses"
"That's ok, I just came for the twins" Sakura replied taking Ying Fa and Syaoran hands. "I guess they all wanted to sleep with their father," she added smiling at the lady.
"I guess so, Miss San was happy that Syaoran didn't get upset with Ken" she spoke reaching for the boy.
"Why would he?" Sakura asked wanting to know why he would be mean to his own son.
"He doesn't believe that Ken is his unlike your twins that have the resemblance and the power, I must be going now, come Ken"
"Yes auntie Keota" Ken spoke as the lady picked him up. She went back to her room to bath the kids and get them ready.
"Mum?" Syaoran asked when Sakura was getting them dressed.
"Hmmm?" Sakura looked up at him.
"Do you love father?" he asked shocking Sakura.
"Can't we stay here forever?" Ying Fa asked smiling.
"What is this gang on mom day?" Sakura asked the two placing Ying Fa on the floor.
"Do you?" Syaoran inquired looking her in the eyes.
"Yes I love your father, he was my first and only love" Sakura answered when Xiao Lang came into the room.
"Come on let's go" Xiao Lang said the kids ran towards him. "See you later" he said before they left.
"Why does my life have to be so complicated?" she asked looking up at the roof as if it were to answer her. Getting no answer she headed to the bathroom to freshen up and meet Paul for work.
"So how long have you been working with Sakura?" Yelen asked Paul, they were sitting in the study having tea. (And there are speaking English)
"For three years, some people think that I'm the father of her kids that's how close we are" Paul answered proudly fingering the small metal suitcase Tomoyo had given him, he didn't know what was in it and had tried to get in it but couldn't. There wasn't even a combination or key slot, all there was, was a funny looking symbol engraved on it.
"Really?" Yelen asked smiling.
"Yeah by the way, this is a amazing house you have here. How old is it?" Paul asked looking at all the paintings and antiques.
"Very old it has been in the family for many, many generations. It is past down from leader to leader. My son is the current leader, you will meet him later" Yelen answered
"I see your clan is very famous. Sakura never told me that she knew you, are you family" Paul asked.
"There are many things she hasn't told you and yes we are family," Yelen answered when Sakura walked into the room.
"Good morning Yelen, Paul what are you doing here?" Sakura asked standing beside Yelen.
"I'm here to take pictures of my favorite model, Tomoyo needs some shots to promote spring and summer. you being in Hong Kong and all she thought it was the best place to take pictures. Aren't you happy to see me?" Paul said looking at bit hurt.
"Its just fall, we just took the Christmas shots. Should I be happy to see you when you bring me work?" Sakura whined. "I wanted this to be a trip for me and my family without work"
"How come you didn't tell me you was leaving? I was worried about you and the kids," Paul said acting all fatherly. Sakura looked at him and raised a brow wondering what the hell he was doing.
"If you're here to take pictures then lets get to it," Sakura stated folding her arms.
"All right not even a hug. Here Tomoyo send this and this for I think she said Xiao Lang" he added showing a medium size metal looking suitcase and a larger one no doubt with clothes. Sakura took it and saw that she had to open it with the lock card.
"I will have Wei bring it to your room" Yelen stated.
"Thank you, I wish he wasn't here. I want to get this over as soon as possible" Sakura said in Chinese making Yelen smile.
"Mrs. Li has been nice enough allowing us to shoot in her back yard" Paul said smiling as they made their way to the back. "And the fact that they have a cliff over looking the ocean is even better, so where are the kids?"
"They are with my son having a late breakfast" Yelen answered, Sakura left them and went into the place where they had curtains making a box so she could change. She was glad that it was a beautiful day, cause had to swimwear and other thin fabric clothing. Tomoyo's company was a big hit in the states and Australia.
"He should watch out for Syaoran that kid is trouble," Paul stated in a somewhat angry tone.
"How so?"
"He wouldn't let me get near his mother, in fact they were the reason she didn't accept my proposal of marriage. She claimed it was because I didn't believe in witches and sorcerers"
"You don't believe in magic?"
"Of course not that doesn't exist and people having magic don't exist either"
"I see"
"Yeah I must go" Paul said leaving her smiling 'How can you marry someone when they don't exist to you' she thought. People out in the yard watched them work with great interest, Yelen sat on a chair and watched with amusement she could see that this guy was truly in love with the card mistress.
"Mother look at this" Xiefia said running up with a magazine in her hand. Yelen took the magazine.
"Li Xiao Lang father's twins of English model Kinomoto Sakura.

"Oh god no."Sakura screamed running over to the bed followed by Syaoran. " it bit her, it bit her" Sakura repeated seeing the bite mark on her leg, Ying Fa's body was sweating and her breaths coming in short gasps. Syaoran picked up the phone and told his mother to get a doctor right away; he quickly checked Syaoran and saw that he hadn't been bitten.
"Get a grip Sakura use the heal card now or she'll die" he yelled knocking her out of her reverie. When everyone rushed into the room, Wei had caught the snake that was headed down stairs.
"Heal Ying Fa, heal card" Sakura screamed through tears, it came out and wiped away the poison but couldn't do anything about the fever. "Thank you" Sakura whispered to it before it returned. Yelen got a wet wash clothe for her fore head and ushered everyone out of the room when the doctor arrived.

"Why don't you lay her with her, I've got something to take care of. Syaoran will be with me," Xiao Lang said to Sakura who nodded. "I'll come right back here when I'm finished ok" he added when she got under the covers.
"You don't have to worry so much about us," Sakura said not wanting him to neglect his other responsibilities, after all he did have a wife and son.
"No I have to, nothing is more important to me then you and the twins, no one," he stated before leaving. Sakura could feel that he put up a barrier round the room and smiled. He walked down the stairs and into the living room where he could feel is mother and Syaoran's aura.

San looked at him and the boy he held in his arms, the boy that looked like him so much and felt pure hatred towards the card mistress and her children.
"Eriol what's the matter?" Tomoyo asked seeing him drop his fork.
"She's not here anymore, she's traveling" Eriol answered getting up, he had been feeling Celesta's aura but it just disappeared. Tomoyo followed him into the study where he started to dial Li's number.
"Her fever is dropping fast," Yelen said looking at the thermometer. Sakura, Syaoran and the kids were all having dinner in the room.

"Yes ma'am" the lady answered frowning.
"Xiao Lang?" Sakura said coming through the door he made that led to their room.
"Hai" he answered from the bed, Sakura looked at him and smiled. All the kids where asleep and he was in the middle of them.
"I came for the twins," Sakura spoke walking over to him.
"Why don't you leave them here they'll be fine unless you don't want to sleep alone" Syaoran stated making Sakura give him a mock glare.

"Yes son?" came Yelen's voice.
"Tell Wei that I will be late for training"
"Okay my son, should I have the cook make breakfast for you and the kids? Sakura has all ready eaten with us"
"Hai can you have San come for Ken?"
"He slept with you?"
"Of course, he is my son at least I think he is"
"Okay my son" she said smiling. "I don't think that San likes Sakura"
"She'll just have to get over it" Syaoran said before hanging up. "I'm right where I want to be," he added rubbing Ying Fa's back.

"Looks to me, he wants you to work or maybe he just missed ya" Xiao Lang said leaving the window. "I can take the kids with me so you can work" he added before going to his bathroom. Sakura looked the door and sighed, just what she needed work and she was definitely not in the mood for his flirting.
"Kaa-san?" Ying Fa mumbled waking up along with Syaoran and Ken. "Daddy?"
"Hai. Get up you two, daddy is going to take you with him" Sakura said walking over to them. "Hello Ken?" she said looking at the boy but he didn't say anything just looked at her. "Come in" she said when there was a knock on the door.
"I'm sorry but I'm here for Ken, I'm his nanny" the lady walking over to the bed. "I didn't mean to interrupt you misses"
"That's ok, I just came for the twins" Sakura replied taking Ying Fa and Syaoran hands. "I guess they all wanted to sleep with their father," she added smiling at the lady.
"I guess so, Miss San was happy that Syaoran didn't get upset with Ken" she spoke reaching for the boy.
"Why would he?" Sakura asked wanting to know why he would be mean to his own son.
"He doesn't believe that Ken is his unlike your twins that have the resemblance and the power, I must be going now, come Ken"
"Yes auntie Keota" Ken spoke as the lady picked him up. She went back to her room to bath the kids and get them ready.
"Mum?" Syaoran asked when Sakura was getting them dressed.
"Hmmm?" Sakura looked up at him.
"Do you love father?" he asked shocking Sakura.
"Can't we stay here forever?" Ying Fa asked smiling.
"What is this gang on mom day?" Sakura asked the two placing Ying Fa on the floor.
"Do you?" Syaoran inquired looking her in the eyes.
"Yes I love your father, he was my first and only love" Sakura answered when Xiao Lang came into the room.
"Come on let's go" Xiao Lang said the kids ran towards him. "See you later" he said before they left.
"Why does my life have to be so complicated?" she asked looking up at the roof as if it were to answer her. Getting no answer she headed to the bathroom to freshen up and meet Paul for work.
"So how long have you been working with Sakura?" Yelen asked Paul, they were sitting in the study having tea. (And there are speaking English)
"For three years, some people think that I'm the father of her kids that's how close we are" Paul answered proudly fingering the small metal suitcase Tomoyo had given him, he didn't know what was in it and had tried to get in it but couldn't. There wasn't even a combination or key slot, all there was, was a funny looking symbol engraved on it.
"Really?" Yelen asked smiling.
"Yeah by the way, this is a amazing house you have here. How old is it?" Paul asked looking at all the paintings and antiques.
"Very old it has been in the family for many, many generations. It is past down from leader to leader. My son is the current leader, you will meet him later" Yelen answered
"I see your clan is very famous. Sakura never told me that she knew you, are you family" Paul asked.
"There are many things she hasn't told you and yes we are family," Yelen answered when Sakura walked into the room.
"Good morning Yelen, Paul what are you doing here?" Sakura asked standing beside Yelen.
"I'm here to take pictures of my favorite model, Tomoyo needs some shots to promote spring and summer. you being in Hong Kong and all she thought it was the best place to take pictures. Aren't you happy to see me?" Paul said looking at bit hurt.
"Its just fall, we just took the Christmas shots. Should I be happy to see you when you bring me work?" Sakura whined. "I wanted this to be a trip for me and my family without work"
"How come you didn't tell me you was leaving? I was worried about you and the kids," Paul said acting all fatherly. Sakura looked at him and raised a brow wondering what the hell he was doing.
"If you're here to take pictures then lets get to it," Sakura stated folding her arms.
"All right not even a hug. Here Tomoyo send this and this for I think she said Xiao Lang" he added showing a medium size metal looking suitcase and a larger one no doubt with clothes. Sakura took it and saw that she had to open it with the lock card.
"I will have Wei bring it to your room" Yelen stated.
"Thank you, I wish he wasn't here. I want to get this over as soon as possible" Sakura said in Chinese making Yelen smile.
"Mrs. Li has been nice enough allowing us to shoot in her back yard" Paul said smiling as they made their way to the back. "And the fact that they have a cliff over looking the ocean is even better, so where are the kids?"
"They are with my son having a late breakfast" Yelen answered, Sakura left them and went into the place where they had curtains making a box so she could change. She was glad that it was a beautiful day, cause had to swimwear and other thin fabric clothing. Tomoyo's company was a big hit in the states and Australia.
"He should watch out for Syaoran that kid is trouble," Paul stated in a somewhat angry tone.
"How so?"
"He wouldn't let me get near his mother, in fact they were the reason she didn't accept my proposal of marriage. She claimed it was because I didn't believe in witches and sorcerers"
"You don't believe in magic?"
"Of course not that doesn't exist and people having magic don't exist either"
"I see"
"Yeah I must go" Paul said leaving her smiling 'How can you marry someone when they don't exist to you' she thought. People out in the yard watched them work with great interest, Yelen sat on a chair and watched with amusement she could see that this guy was truly in love with the card mistress.
"Mother look at this" Xiefia said running up with a magazine in her hand. Yelen took the magazine.
"Li Xiao Lang father's twins of English model Kinomoto Sakura.
