Sorry my updates are taking so long but I will try much harder now. I changed schools and these few months have not been my best but I am learning how to manage my time better and update my story as often as possible. I already have the next chapter written out. Just a thought, reviews really help encourage faster updates and better chapters. Thank you so much to everyone who reviewed I will acknowledge you in my next chapter but you really helped the writing up of these two chapters. The story is just about to get interesting, please bear with me through the any parts you find boring.

"Tonya, what did you just say," Kuri grew worried when she saw the look in Tonya's eyes. Suddenly, Tonya began to speak from within her mind as if she were in a trance. What Kurama was and what he had done.

Tonya's Flashback

A day in mid summer was as cool as a winter day. The wind stung my bare back like needles. I shivered and let my long black hair loose to cover the skin my dress revealed. I was at Demon Gate expecting no surprises until my eyes caught a glimpse of his silvery white hair flowing down his back.

He was a rare demon in this part of Makai. I could tell I had not seen any of his kind here in a while. A silver kitsune, nonetheless who fought without a rose? How I wish such a fighter would notice me. Yet, he did! He looked right at me but continued the fight. Transforming the rose into a solid whip, he lashed at his opponent, cutting through his skin and ribs within seconds.

Then he walked over and my heart began to pound in my chest. "This is not a place for a young maiden to take a walk." "I happen to be a fighter, Mr.." "Call me Kurama, miss. I did not quite catch your name." "It's Tonya….Tonya Natsava." "Tonya, its rare that I meet the acquaintance of such a lovely mai.. female fighter "

He had this unforgettable charm. His golden eyes sparkled as he spoke and gazed at me as if I were irresistible. I was so unsused to any male giving me such attention, especially since I was a Darcharian witch, one of an all female species.

"I should hate to intrude on any private thoughts Tonya-chan but it seems you have left this world." He was teasing me and it made sense since I had been staring at his body the whole time I was spaced out. "Iie (no) Kurama-kun, I was thinking of something.." "Hmmm…" "Iiiiiieeeee (nooo)! That's not what I meant." He just chuckled teasingly again. God, he was annoying but s- - -…….. s o o o cute, uh yea, that's it. '

5 weeks later

It had been five weeks and I had fallen so hard for him. So very hard. Maybe I should have seen it coming. Maybe I just did not want to accept what his intentions really were. He would tell me he wanted to spend the rest of his life with me. He would talk about us getting married and promised me everything. We would be together forever, he swore it. Everything he swore was fake, every promise a lie.

Lioness Temple

"Kurama, this temple is lovely." "Not nearly as lovely as you." "Oh, shut up. You don't have to flirt with me in public. Everyone is staring." "Then let them stare. You, Tonya Natsava, belong to me and no one else."

He had grabbed my wrist so hard. My hand began to grow numb with pain. "Kurama, you're hurting me." "Don't you have an oath to take?" "I don't have any oath to take. Now please stop. Let my wrist go."

My wrist grew so hot and pain shot straight up my arm. "Come my sweet, say you're mine and mine alone." What the hell is wrong with him. " I'm yours and yours alone." He let my wrist go but I could not so much as move it. "What has gotten into you?" I yelled.

Everyone was staring and the humiliation was too much. "Tonya, I'm sorry? I was unaware that I hurt your wrist badly. I just needed to hear those words from you. Do you still love me?" "Kurama I love you, I do." "Tonya, I'm really very sorry. That was unacceptable. I lost control." "Its alright. Lets finish this tour of the temple." I reassured him.

The days turned to weeks and the weeks to months. No, I didn't believe it. I didn't think he really wanted to hurt me but as time changed so did he. Yet, those incidents that began happening much more often were only accidents, right? Or so I convinced myself.
