DOUBLE LEMON!

Arashi was having trouble accepting the fact that the humanity she so prized was not what she was; she was human alright just not full human there was another blood that ran through her veins, angelic blood. She frowned and ran her hands through her hair while her mate and lover slept by her side. Angels and Vampires were enemies and now that knew about her heritage she wondered if she was perhaps breaking some code she had no knowledge about. Movement beside her caught her attention and she glanced down and saw Bakura sitting up and wrapping his arms around her waist.

"What is wrong love?" he asked his throat rumbling with a slow and delicate purr of comfort. "Are you worried about the Angelic blood flowing through your veins?"

"What will the others think?" she whispered, voicing her main concern: the loss of the friends and family she had come to close to grasping.

"They won't love you any less then they do now," said Bakura, tipping her chin so she would look into his eyes. Blood does not cause us to hate each other with every fiber of our being." Bakura stated kissing her forehead. "It takes so much more then that to cause such hatred that you fear, love. For us it would take something much greater to cause hatred like: the murder of our mate or kids, the injury of them, or something else along those lines. Besides, even if they do hate you for the blood within your veins know this; I will never hate you and there is nothing you could do to cause such hatred. For to hate you is to hate myself."

"Thank you Bakura," whispered Arashi, nuzzling her face into his neck and pressing her lips against it tenderly.

Bakura groan when he felt her lips trailing kisses down his smooth cool skin. It had been awhile since they had had their last intimate encounter and he could still smell the doubt and fear on her body and within the time of one second decided the best thing to do for her at the moment was to get rid of the fear and make her realize that he really did love her and nothing would ever change that. He slowly lowered her to the ground and started kissing her face tenderly trailing his mouth down to her neck; he stopped at her pulse point and pressed the tip of his tongue against it feeling the pounding of her heart. He slowly enclosed his mouth over the area and pierced her flesh; he smirked when he heard her sharp intake of breath has he lapped up her sweet, intoxicating blood. Her hands slid up into his hair and she groaned at the arousing feeling of him drinking her blood to sustain him.

Arashi ran her hands through his wild platinum blonde hair and sighed in pleasure at the feeling of her love's mouth latched onto her neck. She gasped when she felt his hands slide up her body and start ripping at her top while his mouth released her neck and started a slow grueling process down her body to her chest. She gasped when she felt his mouth take in her breast and suckle on it gently before switching to the other breasts. Her toes curled and dug slightly into the sheet beneath them has he continued to kiss his way down her smoother stomach slipping his tongue into her navel. She moaned and tightened her grip on his hair when his hands ran over her hips. She groaned and arched her back off of the sheet pressing her stomach towards his face while his talented hands wondered towards the button on her jeans and he slowly unbuttoned and unzipped her eager to get to what he really wanted deep down.

Bakura chuckled when he heard her groan and smiled when she arched her back again so he could slide the jeans from her body. He smirked when he realized she wasn't wearing anything what so ever beneath her jeans and snaked his tongue in between her folds becoming delighted in the response he received from her.

"Bakura!" she gasped jerking up and looking down at him her eyes wide and her mouth dropping open slightly.

"Hhmm?" asked Bakura, who refused to move from his spot but instead moved lower and this time drew some blood with his canines.

"I love you," she whispered.

"I know," said Bakura, kissing her lips briefly before pulling away and going back to her neck his hands tearing at her shirt.

When Bakura had disposed of her shirt he moved his mouth down to her breast and sucked heavily on it eager to taste her skin. Her skin heated when his hands trailed down her sides to her hips and pushed her pants down past her hips while his mouth trailed kisses down her body and licked at her skin. Stopping at her belly button briefly to lick her belly button before moving lower sliding his tongue in between her folds and slipping his tongue into her core; Arashi moaned and arched her hips into his face while her hands dug into the sheets.

Bakura chuckled to himself and pulled away seconds before her orgasm and undid his pants before lowering himself on top of her and inside her. Arashi groaned and arched her back into his hips to match him thrust for thrust. It didn't take long for them to come to an orgasm and when they did they lay their in each other's arms and Bakura allowed his mate to feel the love he felt for her throughout the remaining night.

Elsewhere

Mai blinked a few times before rolling over onto her stomach and turned around to catch a glimpse of Joey asleep in a chair beside her bed. Her mind flashed as images of her family's past rushed through her mind and she lunged from her bed feeling herself charged and ready to go. Joey's eyes opened when he felt his body being thrown onto the floor.

"Mai," said Joey. "What the hell is wrong with you?!"

"You bastard," she snarled. "You murdered her! You killed her! How could you and not tell me?!"

"I am sorry," said Joey. "That was a long time ago before I meet you. I want so much to forget it."

"I hate you," whispered Mai, tears falling from the corners of her eyes and onto Joey's cheek. "I hate you, I hate you, I hate you!"

"I know," whispered Joey, cupping her cheek I wish it hadn't happened but I can't change the past no matter how much I want to. Please forgive me."

"No," whispered Mai. "I hate you so much."

Joey sighed and pulled her down into his embrace and every time she struggled against his embrace he tightened his grip on her. "I love you," he whispered over and over again. "I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you. When you were wounded I was so worried I would have to change you even though I didn't want to loose you. Please stay with me I don't think I could live without you."

After awhile Mai's sobs calmed down and she lay there in silence her head resting against his chest under his chin. "I love you," she whispered softly. "Promise me promise me you won't eve leave me or lie to me again."

"I promise when your strength is back, completely back I will tell you everything that happened to me before I meet you."

"Don't leave anything out," she whispered her voice harsh and cold. "Because if you do and I find out I will leave you and never return."

"Agreed," whispered Joey, kissing the top of her head. "Agreed."

Palace Training Wings

Seto and Pernia stood a few feet away from each other each were holding a sword and wearing baggy pants; but while Seto was shirtless his mate was wearing a sports bra. The two mates slowly began to circle each other looking for an opening, Pernia saw one and lunged forward dodging when her husband lunged for her and catching him in the leg cutting him which immediately began to heal.

"You are getting better love," said Seto, backing up and fingering the rip in his pants. "I am impressed."

"You should be you trained me after all," said Pernia, moving forward for another blow.

Seto smirked and decided he would have fun with his mate he stood there and waited for her to get close before stepping aside and grabbing the wrist that held her sword he brought it to her chest and yanking her against his own chest proceeded to wrap his arm around her waist and latch onto her other wrist in an iron grip. "Let's say that we have a little wager my sweet," said Seto, kissing her briefly.

"What do you have in mind?" asked Pernia, grinding her rare against him.

"We shall play a little game."

"I am listening," said Pernia. "What do you have in mind?"

"For every scratch we receive we must remove an article of clothing."

"But you only have one article of clothing on," pointed at Pernia. "And I have two."

"Very well," said Seto moving his hand up and ripping her sports bra off. "That makes us even."

"Hardly," said Pernia laughing which turned into a groan when she felt his hands slide over her naked skin. "I thought you wanted to train tonight."

"I changed my mind," said Seto trailing his mouth down her body.

"I can live with that," said Pernia has he threw her onto the mat.

"Good," said Seto straddling her hips and placing his arms on either side of her face while his hands ran through her hair.

Seto and Pernia locked lips and started wrestling with their tongues inside her mouth while her arms wrapped around his body and her nails dug into the back of his shoulders. He drew back and hiss down at her his eyes flashing blood when the scent of his blood filled the air. He smirked and licked her nose while she forced him to roll over onto his back so she was straddling his hips. Pernia stretched her upper body so her breasts where in his face and cupped one of them and offered it to him which he gladly accepted and pulled her chest closer to his chest.

Pernia opened her mouth and cried out in pleasure feeling his tongue lap at her breast while his mouth sucked on it eagerly. She gasped when she felt his hands slide down her body into the pants and grabbed hold of her firm ass squeezing it. Pernia squealed and jerked back causing him to scrape his fangs against the delicate skin of her breast. His eyes flashed red again for longer and he pulled her back down to his mouth and licked at her blood covered skin. She moaned above him her chest arching into his mouth while her hands gripped his arms.

They rolled over again and Pernia cried out when Seto moved down her body trailing hot kisses over her stomach and ripping her pants from her body.

"Seto," said Pernia, her eyes heavy with lust. "If you destroy my clothes how am I going to get back without anyone knowing?"

"You will see," said Seto, burying his nose into her mound and licking it tenderly smirking when he heard her moans and felt her thrusting hips meet his mouth.

Seto continued to lick at her core until she came spilling her juices into his mouth and causing him to pull back licking his lips that had formed into an arrogant smirk. He moved back to her lips and placed a sweet kiss on her lips pulling away and moving to her neck before rolling over and onto his back. They kissed and slowly and Pernia moved her hands down his body to burn his pants off of him.

"Woman," he snapped.

"Hey if I am going to have to get back to our wing naked so are you," smirked Pernia.

Seto chuckled and kissed her again moving his mouth to her forehead before thrusting into her body with one smooth thrust. Pernia cried out and arched her body into his hips and moaned when she felt his length fill her. They continued to thrust enjoying the pleasureful companion of each other. When it was over they lay there on the mats wrapped in each other's arms.

"Come on," said Pernia hitting his arm. "We have to get outta here before some else comes in and sees us."

"Not like they won't know what we did anyways," muttered Seto getting to his feet and pulling his mate with him.

"So beloved," said Pernia wrapping her arms around him. "How are we going to get back to our wing without anyone seeing us?"

"Like this," said Seto and the scenery faded away to black and when it cleared they were in their bedroom.

"Useful," said Pernia while they climbed into bed. "But why didn't you use this before?"

"No need," said Seto shrugging his shoulders.

"Good night Seto," chuckled Pernia snuggling into his arms.

"Night Human," said Seto chuckling. "Ow."

Pernia just laughed before falling asleep.
