A/n: yes. Finally I managed to write a chapter 5! It may not be as good as the other chapters because I'm having severe writers block with it. Hopefully I'll get over that eventually and then I'll be able to update as fast as I used to instead of it being about 6 months in between (or whatever it was). Well I hope you enjoy it. And here it is…

Chapter 5! Rhiema.
4Pm…the docks
Seto's POV!

'I can't believe I let Mokuba talk me into this.' I thought angrily to myself.

Somehow Mokuba had persuaded me to come meet this Rhiya, or whatever her name is.

Suddenly a high pitched feminine voice pierced through my ears.

"OOH SETO DARLING! There you are…" it was her. It had to be. She was petit with long brown hair and shining blue eyes. Just as Longhop had described her.

I noticeably shivered at the thought of having any kind of contact wit this woman. Unfortunately she noticed. And used it as her first excuse to put her arm around me.

That was her first wrong move. This woman is now about to enter hell. Kaiba style.

Grabbing her small hand I pried her off me.

"don't touch me…Ever!" I hissed, my face growing red with anger.

She backed down a bit, clearly scared.

"What's wrong Seto love?" she asked as sweetly as possible. It was fake. I could tell. But she's already made her second wrong move, causing my anger to build right back up again.

"How.Dare.You.Call.Me.By.My.First.Name…" I growled furiously through gritted teeth.

"Because we are to be married. Why else?" she asked as if it were obvious.

I growled. There was nothing else I could do.

Knowing that it was no use to argue with the monster. I decide it would just be easier to go along with it for a bit. Well until I find away to sort all of this bizarre 'prince' stuff out.

Forcing my anger back down. I turn to the beast and attempt smiling. Well that doesn't work so I just plaster my usual Kaiba smirk over my face.

"Well how rude of me. I was in my own little world. I didn't realize it was you." I lie. Well what else can I do? There is nothing else I can do. It's obvious this women (thing) is important in some way, I don't want to be in any bad books at the moment, I just want to get everything sorted and dump the freak. And maybe marry someone like Serenity. I mentally kick myself. Where the hell did that come from?

"aww baby. That's okay. What's on your mind dear?" I cringed. Biting back my fury and disgust. I've had enough of this women already.

But what do I say? I can't tell her I'm thinking about another women. Not that I am of course.

Inwardly I curse at myself for even bringing wheeler back into my thoughts. Even though she is beautiful.

"I'm just thinking on how Kaiba Corps last stock take was doing. I can't help but think about my work. It's the most important thing to me." Well except Serenity. Argh, what's wrong with me?

Without any warning she grabbed my hand. "oh Seto, my love. Let us walk"

With that she started dragging me around the docks.

At first I tried to pry her off me. But it didn't work so I gave up.

She keeps talking to me. But I'm not listening. If I attempted to I'd probably end up jumping into the water and drowning myself. Fortunately I managed to get lost in thought about Kaiba Corp, and of course my angel. I mean that wheeler girl. I mean I wasn't even thinking about her at all.

Looking straight on I suddenly see a flick of auburn hair on a bench not to far away. Without a thought I drag what's her name into the nearest stall and told her I needed to use the men's room.

I don't know why I'm doing this. But I quickly run over to the bench and sit down next to her.

She doesn't look up. On closer inspection I see blood running down the side of her face and down along her neck and then hidden by her shirt. She has bruises, scratches and tears all over her face.

Not knowing what I'm doing I instinctively put my arm around her and whisper in her ear.

"Serenity? What happened? Please tell me, I want to help…"

Serenity's POV.

'why does he beat me? Did I do something wrong? Why did he kill Joey? Does he intend to kill me too?'

I felt someone sit next to me but I ignored it. Well until I felt them put their arm around me. But the thing is I don't care anymore. So instead of responding to the person. I just carry on ignoring them.

"Serenity? What happened? Please tell me, I want to help…" that voice. So familiar.

Without looking up I say. "Joey? Is that you?" it had to be. He's the only person who was ever caring toward me. And he's the only person who ever called me by my first name.

"No it's Seto." He replies and holds me tighter, more secure as if I'm his and his alone.

To say the least I was confused. Seto Kaiba embracing me. Last night he was so cold.

Slowly I look up and meet his beautiful sapphire eyes. His face so close to mine. He looks genuinely worried.

"Serenity…please tell me." He whispers so quietly that I could barley hear him.

Looking past him I see a short brunette walk out of the shop and storm over to us.

Instantly I bow my head down. Because I know who she is. She's princess Rhiema.

When Seto sees her, his previous façade disappeared instantly, leaving me to wonder whether or not I had just imagined it.

"Seto darling. I've been looking everywhere for you." She said while smiling sweetly at Kaiba.

I noticed him cringe at the sound of his name leaving her big red lips. I even noticed the way he twitched his eyebrow in fury when she called him darling. Overall he looked disgusted.

Suddenly she turns to me and crinkles up her nose in repulsion, and said.

"And who is she?" She asks Seto. As I if I were a piece of shit on the bottom of her shoe or something similarly disgusting.

"Sh…" Seto started. But I interrupted. "I'm no body." With that I got up and ran in the opposite direction. No one tried to stop me, which was good. I need to sort my head out. Only one word keeps going through my mind and that word is Seto…

a/n: finally chapter 5. and to think after such a long wait I give you this. It's short and it's crummy. And defiantly not up to my usual standards. But People I'm having a serious case of writers block! And it's not fair. This is my favorite story that I've written. But I just don't know what to write! I know exactly whats going to happen and stuff. It's just getting past bits like this.

If any of you people out there have any ideas on how to help me get this story running again I'd really appreciate it. It just seems to have fallen apart in this chapter and I feel really bad having a chapter as loose as this I like to have them all tight and compact with what I'm plotting. But this chapter was a more write it as I go along sort of thing.

kk. thanks for reading, BlUeEyEs89
