CHAPTER FOUR: Discovery and kidnapping(Again)!

After getting back to Kai's mansion he wordlessly made his way upstairs. He needed time to clear his head.

Things weren't supposed to happen this way. He was supposed to have left that life behind when he defeated his grandfather and Boris. Upon reaching his room he realized that these negative thoughts weren't going to help him get out of this situation.

After entering his room he flopped onto his bed and groaned into the pillow. He had a huge headache. 'Probably all the stress' He thought idly. At least all that had happened had made one thing clear. He was in love with Miguel. During those torturous days leading up to his 'marriage' he couldn't think about anything or anyone else. Unfortunately nobody would want somebody with so much baggage from the past. He wasn't worth the trouble.

He was so preoccupied with his thoughts that he didn't notice the object of his thoughts enter the room. Walking up to him, Miguel placed his hand on the younger bladers shoulder. The reaction was almost instant. He whirled around grasping Miguels hand preparing to toss him aside.

Fortunately for Miguel, Kai seemed to realize it was him at the last minute and restrained himself from mutilating his crush. The force of jerking back his arm however, caused too much strain on his arm and Miguel who was perched on it came crashing down. This resultined in a highly compromising and embarassing situation. Miguel was lying on top of Kai, practically straddling him with their faces only half an inch apart. Both their faces resembled Tala's hair.

Seeing Kai blush gave Miguel hope. Leaning down slightly, he captured the surprised Phoenix's lips in a passionate kiss. Feeling the younger boy gasp Miguel wasted no time and promptly slipped his tongue inside.

After freezing in shock for a moment, Kai unwound and started kissing back.

Feeling him respond made Miguel braver and he slipped his arms around the petite frame before coming to rest on Kai's backside. Miguel felt Kai gasp into the kiss and he smirked. After a while, air became a serious issue to both boys and they reluctantly broke apart. No sooner had they broken apart than they locked lips again.

This continued for a few minutes before the two were rudely interrupted...by the rest of their housemates. The first thing to make them aware of their audience was a gasp followed by Tyson's very annoying voice.

"Oh my God! What are you two doing?" Hearing the stunned question and seeing the others' shocked expressions, Kai smirked and answered.

"We were playing a game Tyson."

"A game?"

"Yes baka, a game."

"What game?" Kai smirks.

"Tonsil hockey." Tyson's face turned contemplative for a moment before his captains words sunk in. His face twisted into a grossed-out expression.

"Ewwwwwwwwww! Are you serious?" Kai shot him his infamous death glare, which was effective even from his position beneath Miguel.

"Yes I am serious! Now will you please leave so we can get out of half-time and into the second half?" The looks on their faces were priceless. The formerly stunned bladers snapped out of their trances and rushed out of the room. Once sure they were all out of earshot, both boys broke into peals of laughter. After calming down from their near hysterical state, Miguel grinned wolfishly down at Kai who sweatdropped.

"Why does that look on your face look so intimidating?" His answer was a passionate kiss. They continued making out for a while before falling asleep wrapped in each others arms. Neither of them noticed the forbidding stare that watched them long into the night...

Waking up the next morning, Kai had the distinct feeling that something was wrong. He had no idea why he felt like that, but the many years he had spent in the abbey had taught him to trust his instincts.

He untangled himself from Miguel's arms and had a quick shower before padding downstairs quietly. He took note of the fact that it was only five in the morning.

After making and downing a strong cup of black coffee, he made his way outside. As he walked accross the pure white snow, he was reminded of the gargoyle asleep in his bed. He smiled softly at the thought of the beautiful blond angel that he could call his own.

Sighing, he looked at his left hand yet again. Glinting maliciously was the plain gold ring that refused to be removed. They had tried everything, but nothing had managed to get it off.

Suddenly, Kai tensed up. He could feel someone's eyes on him. He was being followed! Whirling around, he was just in time to avoid the net which had obviously been mean to capture him. For the first time in his life, Kai managed to thank his abbey training. It had provided him with enhanced senses and reactions, such as avoiding the stealthily thrown net.

Crouching into a fighting stance, Kai slowly tried making his way back to the house. He kept his senses alert and kept looking around. He had a pretty good idea about who it was, but that only firmed his resolve to escape. He wasn't planning on going back to Volcov if he could help it.

Just before he managed to reach the sanctuary of the house, however, a few men rushed forward recklessly. 'They're probably too worried about what he'll do to them if they fail' He thought to himself while he effortlessly beat his attackers back.

Unfortunately, this thought made him a bit reckless himself, and he failed to notice the dart that effortlessly sunk into his skin. Realizing too late that he shouldn't have underestimated Volcov, Kai slumped forward. He noticed snake-like green eyes before sinking into the darkness.
