Aruna ?

Aruna growled , and checked her reflection in the mirror , you could barely see the bruise under the layers of make up she had been forced to smear on her face to hide it . She was going to the SubRitz early because Kai had called for her and said he wanted to see her . she just hoped she didn't run into Tala again .

She hated that man so much ! She would relish killing him . She was wearing a plain black cotton dress , it came up very high , it was almost short enough to be a shirt , it was sleeveless and had a high collar, she also wore black floppy boots . She pulled her long black trench coat over the top and headed out .

Kai was sitting at his usual table , but the only difference was that the place was deserted , the SubRitz wouldn't open till later , he toyed with the handle of his glass which contained his usual martini .

He looked up as someone entered and he smirked , there she stood , perfect as ever . She slowly walked over to him and sat down facing him .

Kai merely stared at her for a few seconds , but suddenly his eyes narrowed and focused on her left cheek .

"What happened ?!"He asked , obviously concerned he sat forward and brushed his thumb against the skin on her face, she winced .

"Oh , its nothing , I ...uhh , stumbled on the stair way up to my apartment ." She lied .

"That's not nothing ," he said , "That bruise is huge ."

Aruna didn't want to linger on that particular subject , she could only lie for so long before she accidentally contradicted herself and dropped her self in it .

"SoMr.Hiwitari, why did you send for me ?" She asked . "You weren't disappointed with my services last night were you ?"

He shook his head and smirked .

"Not in the least , but it is about what I said last night ..." He trailed off .

Aruna felt a great weight lift from her shoulders , and she laughed .

"Oh that. Don't worry about it Mr.Hiwitari , you were half asleep , I know you didn't mean it !" She said , expecting him to laugh and agree with her .

"Your wrong ." He said quietly . Her laughter ended abruptly and she felt the weight come smashing back down with ten times the force . "I am , Mr.Hiwitari ?" she breathed . He nodded .

"Aruna , you can stop calling me Mr.Hiwitari , what I said last night was no mistake , I meant it ." he told her , his hand snaking out and placing itself over her own .

"But before I say anything else , I need to know, Aruna ."

She swallowed hard , she knew what he expected to hear , and she knew what she wanted to say , but she also knew what she had to say .

:;say something ! Lie to him , tell him you love him too !:: Hissed Scarlath .

Aruna managed a smile .

"Mr.Hiwit .....Kai . I Love you more than I ever knew I could ." She breathed . he smiled and pulled her onto his lap , his arms wrapped around her , she rested her head on his shoulder .

"Then , you'll marry me ?" He asked .

Aruna couldn't speak , how could she ? she had always dreamed a fantasy , that one day she would settle down , marry , have children , a girl and a boy, twins . she had never dreamed that her prey would ever develop these kind of feelings for her , all of the others had been happy for anyone to share their bed , so getting close to them hadn't been hard . But perhaps it was because Kai didn't indulge in women that he had fallen in love with her . she then realized that he must have liked her from the start to have even considered sleeping with her , his fondness must have grown rapidly .

Aruna merely nodded and she allowed him to slip a sliver ring with a small blue diamond set into it onto her finger . But instantly her mind was working furiously , now that Kai had asked her to marry him and she had said yes , then he would surely want her in his bed that night . she couldn't sleep with him and then kill him , because then everybody would know it was her , Aruna . she had to figure out a way to avoid him tonight .

"I don't want you to come to me tonight ." he said . she looked at him , about to smile in relief , but caught herself quickly . she forced her face to fall .

"But , Mr.Hiwitari , do I not please you anymore ?"

"Would I ask you to marry me if you didn't ?" he said , she smirked . " I just have some important stuff that I need to do tonight , I need you to stay out of the way ." He said .

She pretended to pout , she turned so she had straddled him and folded her arms and raised an eye brow .

"And what makes you think , Mr.Hiwitari , that I am going to obey you ?" she said .

He was wearing his casual clothes , so she had grabbed the end of his white scarf and was twirling the end of it around her slender fingers .

"Because , Mrs.Hiwitari , if you don't I'm afraid I'll have to kill you ." said Kai with a smirk .

She laughed . "Not if I kill you first , Mr.Hiwitari ." She breathed .

Kai smirked and pulled her in for a gentle kiss .

"Please ," He said after they had separated , "Just promise me that you will stay away from my room tonight ."

She ran a hand through the back of his hair and looked at him, their foreheads almost touching.

"I promise , Aruna shall came nowhere near you this night ." She said .

*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*

Aruna looked at herself in her full length mirror , her dark blue cat suit covered her from her throat to her feet . she tried to feel pleased that she was almost done with this job , but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't do it .

*Mrs.Hiwitari , that's what he said , he wants to marry me Scarlath , he really loves me *

:: I know Mistress . But , surely , you cannot be defeated so easily ? I mean ........

*Scarlath I really don't think I want to kill him any more , I mean , he has asked me to MARRY him !*

:: I Know mistress , but you cannot back down now , you have to do this , $4 million , not to mention your reputation is at stake ::

*But if I marry Kai , it won't matter ! I'll have a real life , children , money , and Kai all the time .*

:: Are you forgetting Tala ? No matter how strong Kai's security is , you can bet Tala will find a way through it to you , and kill you . Mistress , you have no choice , you have to do this !::

Aruna sighed , she didn't know what to do any more , she picked up her mask and pulled it over her head , before setting off towards the SubRitz , jumping across each of the close roofs.

She still wore the ring that Kai had given her .

*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*

The Shadow smirked , she had slowly managed to push any thoughts of Kai to the back of her head , she was concentrating on the task at hand . She heard the thumping music from inside , it was very late by now , and she knew Kai would have retired to his quarters .

She stood in front of the electricity panel , she smirked , all she needed to do was cause a slight diversion to set the ball rolling . she grinned and flipped a switch . The music ended abruptly , and all the lights went out . It had worked !

All was confusion in the bar area , it was pitch black , the women were screaming , the dancing girls , had tripped over in the darkness , and were sprawled in a tangled in a heap in the stage .

There were sounds of tables being overturned , and glasses smashing , it was utter chaos, men shouted and swore no one knew what was going on, or what to do. Then , all at once , as suddenly as it had gone out , the power came back on , in the few seconds ,the place had been transformed into a complete mess . No one noticed the steel door at the edge of the room , leading down to the basement silently close behind someone wearing a navy blue cat suit .

The Shadow looked around the corridor , normally there were body guards leading all the way down to Kai's room , but tonight , there was no one . She shrugged , all the easier for her then !

Silently she sped down the corridor , until she reached the code locked door . Of course she knew the code , Kai was foolish enough to tell it to her , he shouldn't trust so easily . she typed it in , and waited , the door hissed open .

She stepped into Kai's room , her gun in her hand , the lights were out , it looked like Kai was already asleep . she quietly shut the door behind her , and took a few steps towards the king sized double bed . She would have to wake him up first of course .

Suddenly , lights blared in at her from all sides , she was blinded by the sudden change . she felt strong fists grab her arms .

No ! This couldn't happen , not now . Not after she had finally talked herself into doing it ! why ! Why hadn't she just stayed away as Kai had warned her ?!

She struggled wildly , she HAD to break free , she had to get out . But those hands were very strong , and they were not letting go . Someone kicked the backs of her legs , so she fell to her knees .

Her eyes were adjusting , but before they did , she heard a cold chuckle , and she felt like a giant cube of ice had just been dropped into her stomach .

"So , the famous Shadow , powerless , and at my mercy !" Hissed Kai .

She shoulders shook , this couldn't happen , not now , surely !

"Nothing to say ?" He asked . still she did not reply , she could see now , he was sitting in a chair , facing her . Ray stood next to him , and that meant Max and Tyson were holding her down .

He chuckled again . He loaded Dranzer onto his launcher and aimed it at her throat .

"Before my bitbeast disposes of you , I want to know who you are ." he said , "What's your name ?"

She kept her lips tightly shut , and merely started struggling again .

"Fine !" said Kai . "Tyson , take off her mask !" he commanded . Tyson nodded , and grabbed hold of it , he wrenched upwards , tearing it from her face .

Navy locks fell around her shoulders , as her flesh was revealed , she turned her face away , she had stopped struggling now , she stared fiercely at the only thing in her line of vision , which was the king sized double bed , where her and Kai had made love so many times . A solitary tear rolled down her left cheek , where the bruise that Tala had left throbbed sorely .

Kai's mouth opened , shock registered on his face . He dropped Dranzer , and his eyes widened .

In that moment Kai's heart shattered , he winced as he felt the pain , the only woman , he had ever loved , the only one who he had allowed to break through the barrier of ice that surrounded his heart , it was her . The Shadow .

"A-Aruna !?!" he said .
