A/N – Double D, the purring scene you two wanted is in this chapter. Dragon, you especially are a bad influence. Dukie, the tail-chasing scene is also in this chapter. At this point I would put in a smiley face but I know that ffnet will cut it off. Hmm…I should create my own form of smiley face that outsmarts the ffnet censers. hehehe

It was night, always an annoying time for Yami. Rarely he slept much at night anymore, instead having the instinct to wander around the mansion. He hoped that in three days when he was back to his normal self his night wanderings would stop.

After the first night, Yami tried not get into too much trouble. He got bored easily though so that wasn't an easy task. Fortunately Seto had gotten into the habit of leaving lights on downstairs for him so that he could avoid many accidents. The CEO had also taught him how to use the home theatre so he could watch movies if he wanted but Yami still preferred prowling around.

Leaving his room, Yami wandered down the hall. Passing the closed door to Seto's office, Yami noticed light could be seen streaming from under the door.

Seto's up? he thought to himself. It was past 3am but for some reason it didn't surprise Yami that the brunet was up late. He knew that Seto worked long and hard for Kaiba Corporation. He sadly knew that the company would always be Seto's first love.

Curious to what the brunet was up to, Yami cracked open the door and peeked inside. Seto's office was simple enough. Some bookcases, a couch and TV were placed around the room. In front of the large windows was Seto's desk with his expensive computer resting on top of it.

The brunet was at his desk, talking on the phone. His chair was spun around facing away from Yami as he stared out into the night. The Kaiba Mansion was far enough away from the city allowing them to see the stars and moon clearly in the sky.

Feeling mischief, Yami quietly pushed the door open farther and dropped to the ground. Crawling forward with stealth only a feline could possess, Yami quickly arrived at a spot next to the brunet when he suddenly stopped.

He had planned on pouncing on Seto, surprising the CEO, but now he didn't feel like doing that. Seto's scent was over powering and yet so familiar. It was similar but so different from his priest.

Leaning forward, Yami's face brushed against Seto's pant leg. A meow of desire escaped his lips as he began rubbing harder. Absentmindedly, Seto's hand went down to pet Yami's head bringing out a purr of content from the half-cat. Seto continued to pet Yami while talking on the phone in a language the former Pharaoh didn't know. Yami meanwhile continued to purr.

Seto finished his call to his associates in the United States. Kaiba Land US was doing well but he would soon have to make a trip out and personally inspect things. Mokuba would be happy, as the younger Kaiba loved the American culture, especially the food.

What's that sound? Seto finally wondered. Looking down he saw to his horror he was petting Yami's head; who was busy rubbing his face against his leg all while purring.

Seto yanked his head away causing Yami to look up at him with lust filled eyes. Continuing to purr, Yami crawled up onto Seto's lap and began rubbing his head against the brunet's chest.

"Ya-mi?"

"Shh..."

Seto had to admit that it was nice. For a long time he had a thing for the petite duelist. Only Yami would he ever consider his equal. Only Yami would he ever consider ever dating. Only Yami.

Seto's arms gradually snaked up Yami's back, slipping up under the white t-shirt he was wearing. The former Pharaoh arched into the touch and his purrs grew louder.

"Seto…" he breathed into the brunet's ear. He then placed a tentative lick on Seto's pale neck, causing the CEO to shudder. Sensing Seto liked it; Yami began licking his neck further.

Seto felt as if he were in a dream. Cupping the back of Yami's neck, Seto brought his head up and gently kissed Yami's lips.

Yami meowed into the kiss, liking the taste of the brunet very much. Wrapping his arms around Seto's neck, he pressed their lips more firmly together.

Breaking the kiss, Seto moved his mouth down to Yami's throat, sucking on his neck. Everything felt so familiar to the brunet, as if he been together with Yami in another lifetime.

Yami began rocking as Seto's kisses continued downwards reaching the collar of his shirt. Seto's hands toyed with the helm of the shirt and he removed his mouth briefly so he could tug the garment over the top of Yami's tri-haired head. His lips then quickly returned to the tanned skin Yami received from laying out in the sun too much. The half-cat loved napping outside in a sunny spot.

Fingers ran through Seto's chestnut locks. Yami pressed against the back of Seto's head, needing to be closer to his love. His tail wrapped around one of Seto's legs, trying to keep them tied together.

Seto's tongue swirled around Yami's left nipple. A hand was ran up Yami's chest to his other nipple, tweaking and tugging it until it was firm and red.

Suddenly Seto pulled away and Yami gave a small meow of protest. Cupping Yami's ass with his hands, Seto stood up holding Yami in his arms. The former Pharaoh quickly wrapped his legs around the brunet's waist not wanting to let go.

Seto carried Yami down the hall to his bedroom. They fell together as a mess onto Seto's navy bedspread. Yami barely notice anything else besides Seto's solid body pushing him hard down into the mattress.

Next to them, Yami's tail flickered around before finally settling upon Seto's back. Happily he purred again as Seto's mouth went back to work upon his neck.

Morning came far too early for Yami.

Not bothering to open his crimson eyes, Yami snuggled closer to the warm, naked body next to him. He didn't want to get up.

Unfortunately that warm, naked body next to him had another plans. Rolling away from Yami, Seto sat up.

"No," Yami sleepily protested. Reaching out, Yami grasped Seto's hand in his own. "Too early."

"I have work."

"No."

"It's already 10am."

Instead of replying, Yami began purring again knowing from last night it was a weakness of the brunet.

With a sigh, Seto wrapped his arms around Yami's body. "We need to talk later…about last night."

"Sleep."

"I heard you. Go back to sleep and I'll wake you up in a few hours."

Drifting off back to sleep, Yami felt Seto's lips on his forehead before he fell unconscious once again.

Two hours later Seto woke him up again, this time for lunch where they had to deal with Mokuba's questions and teasing.

"So what were you guys up to last night? I heard a lot of noises and Niisama actually slept in today! Niisama never does that!"

"Eat your food," Seto calmly replied while Yami madly blushed. Silently Seto made plans to get his room sound proof.

After lunch they had time to be alone to talk.

"Last night…" Seto began before trailing off. For once in his life Seto didn't know what to say.

"Was a mistake right?" Yami deeply sighed as he lowered his head to look at the floor. He really had been hoping that Seto had some feelings for him.

"No." Yami's head snapped up and he looked at Seto with surprise. "I admit we got caught up in a fit of passion, which lead to what it did. But it was not a mistake."

"So what's bothering you then?"

Seto sighed. "We're taking this way too fast. We should slow it down."

"Oh, well I guess that's okay. I admit we did move rather quickly."

"You have three days left until Isis arrives and turns you back normal. I think we should wait until then."

Yami nodded his head. "It would be nice to be normal again before I start thinking about getting into a serious relationship."

With a smile on his face, Seto leaned down and sweetly kissed Yami. "In three days I'll take you on a date you'll never forget," he quietly murmured against Yami's lips.

Yami blushed. He liked that idea.

Darn, stupid thing, Yami angrily thought as he spun around in a circle trying to catch his tail. He was bored; Seto was at work planning a big business trip coming up, which once again left Yami alone for long hours.

Tired of all the TV shows he was watching, Yami had decided to try and find something to play with. He eventually resorted to chasing his tail.

Ah ha! Triumphantly Yami bit down on the tip of his tail, temporary forgetting that the tail was attached to him.

With a yip of pain, Yami collapsed to the floor laying spread out on his back. He was exhausted from all of running around he had done. Closing his eyes, Yami wanted nothing more then to have a nap.

Quiet chuckling was heard throughout the room causing Yami to snap his eyes open. Sitting up he looked over at the doorway where he found Seto laughing at him.

"Shouldn't you be at work?" he scowled while Seto continued to laugh. Embarrassed, he began pouting.

"Don't be like that Yami." Strolling over to where Yami still sat on the floor, Seto bent over and placed a kiss to the top of Yami's tri-colored head. "I figured you were lonely so I came home early after dropping Mokuba off at the arcade."

"What about the trip you were planning?"

"The trip is still a month a way. There's time."

"How long will you be gone?"

"Two months."

Yami hung his head as Seto walked over to the couch and sat down. He should have figured something like that. No wonder Seto wanted to take things slow.

"Don't be like that Yami. You can come and visit me anytime you want. Although you might have to travel in a pet carrier."

With a smile on his face, Yami stood and marched over to the brunet. Playfully he whacked Seto's shoulder before plopping down next to him.

"Don't hit me. That's abuse."

"You deserved it."

"No I didn't." Grinning, Seto petted Yami's head making sure to rub the area behind his ears causing Yami to purr with content. "I'm going to miss the purrs."

"Weirdo," Yami muttered in between purrs.

"I'm not the one purring."

"I can't help it."

"Uh huh."

The pair continued to cuddle together until the ringing of the phone interrupted them.

"If that is anyone except for Mokuba, they're dead," Seto grumbled as he reached over and picked up the receiver.

"Be nice, it could be Yugi checking up on me," Yami whispered to him. Seto rolled his eyes but nodded his head anyway.

"Hello? Yes, he's here…do you want to speak to him? Alright, I'll pass on the message…Bye."

"Who was that?"

"Isis. She arrived early and is staying with the psychos."

"Well let's go over there then!" Yami cried jumping to his feet only to have Seto wrap his arms around his waist and tug him back down.

"Hang on. She said she wanted time to look over the spells Malik used and will be over tomorrow."

"Oh," Yami said with clear disappointment in his voice.

"Relax. You'll be back to normal before you know it. But before then I want to hear some more purrs."

Pulling Yami onto his lap, Seto began petting his head once again. He also brought his other hand around to play with Yami's tail causing a loud purr to erupt the former Pharaoh's throat.

Yami's tail twitched as he stared at the clock on the wall. Isis had called that morning to say she would be over at around 2pm and it was already 1:48pm and still no sign of her.

The former Pharaoh sighed wishing Seto was there with him to keep his nerves down. The brunet had offered to stay but Yami had told him no. He knew that Seto had a lot of work to do and didn't want to be a burden.

The intercom buzzed and Yami knew it was her. Quickly he pressed the button to allow the gates to open to allow Isis access.

"Pharaoh," she said bowing slightly upon the half cat opening the front door. "It is a pleasure to see you again."

"Isis please," Yami began with a small smile upon his face. "I am no longer Pharaoh. You are a friend and should treat me as one."

"I am honored Pharaoh," Isis replied, but a serious look remained upon her face. "I am afraid I bring grave news however."

Yami's heart sank.

"What do you mean?" he cautiously asked her.

"I am very sorry. I have looked through all the books and scrolls that I own, I have read over the spell more times then I can count and yet I still can not find a way to reverse the process."

"But that means…"

"Yes, I'm afraid you're stuck in this form."

Tears welled up in Yami's crimson eyes. "But you were supposed to cure me!"

"I'm sorry, I tried. I really did."

The former Pharaoh sighed and wiped at his tears. He cried a lot in front of his father when he was growing up and didn't want to repeat the process. "I'm sure you did Isis. I know I can't expect you to work miracles."

"If it makes you feel better I've forbidden Malik and Bakura to bother you anymore. They were thrilled when they found out that you'll stuck like a cat."

"I'm not surprised."

"I should get going. The two of them practically destroyed Ryou's apartment while he's been away. I've put them on clean up duty and need to get back to supervise them."

Silently Yami nodded his head. He wanted to be alone.

Isis left and Yami sought out safety in his bedroom. Sitting on the bed he curled up in a small ball. That was where he remained until Seto found him hours later.

"Yami?"

Yami remained quiet.

"Yami, what's wrong?"

Concerned, Seto patted his head, which seemed to finally shake Yami out of his daze. Sitting up he buried his face into the brunet's chest.

"Isis can't fix me," he quietly said while Seto continued patting his head.

"Well, I hope she doesn't fix you because I'm sure you'd like all your parts still intact."

Yami gave a small bitter laugh. "Do you realize or care this means I'll never be normal again? Or are you just happy you get to keep your pet?"

"Normal is boring. And you do make a cute pet."

The tears Yami had been holding back all afternoon finally began falling. Not knowing what else to do, Seto merely held him tighter.
