Chapter Two

When Ryou finally woke up he was greeted by a startling white room with various white objects in it. He sat up only to feel a cold draft of air hitting his bare unmarked chest. 'Wait what happened to the stab wounds? Maybe I imagined it.'

Laughter echoed throughout Ryou's mind.

/ /No, silly host they're still there. They're there but only you and I can see them. /

True enough when Ryou took a closer look at his chest he could see the faint scars of the wounds.

/Why did you do this? /

Again the spirit laughed at Ryou and appeared on the bed with Ryou.

/That's simple, host you belong to me. /

The spirit placed a hand on Ryou's head and began looking for something.

'No, he can't move my pins. He'll find my cat ears.'

The spirit turned to look at him a look of surprise on his face.

/So that's what you're hiding from me. /

He pulled the pins out of Ryou's hair and let the cat ears loose. The spirit then pinned Ryou up against the bed's headboard.

/Don't you ever hide anything from me again! Got it? /

Ryou nodded after all he was supposed to be submissive to his mate and follow his wishes.

/Why the hell do you keep calling me your mate!/

Ryou sighed and was about to explain when he heard soft footsteps approaching. Moving quickly he pinned the hair down that covered his cat ears. The spirit had already gone back inside the Millennium Ring and had left him all alone again.

/ /You're not alone anymore little host. You'll always be stuck with me/

Ryou didn't know if he should be glad or scared that he would never be alone again.

"Ahh …Mr. Bakura, you're awake now. You're friends brought you here when you fainted about an hour ago. They're waiting outside for you right now. You can go see them if you want," said the nurse as she checked over Ryou over one more time before dismissing him.

/ Can I have friends, ummm…., I guess I'll call you Bakura if that's okay with you. /

/ /Why would you give me your name, host. /

Ryou blushed and tried to come up with a reason to give Bakura.

/ You're a part of me? Are you not? /

/ /Yes but what does that have to do with that name you have given me. /

/ Well since you're a part of me you deserve part of my name and that's why you're Bakura/

/ Silly host that is not my name but I shall take it nonetheless since you have given it to me freely./

"Bakura-kun! Are you alright? You've been spacing out for a few minutes."

Ryou turned to look at Yugi along with the rest of their gang looking at him with worried faces.

"I'm sorry but I'm okay," he reassured them with a smile.

/ Bakura, did I really space out? /

/ No, you were talking to me. Now pay attention they're talking to you again and no you cannot have friends. You belong to me and only to me. No one else can have you my pretty little host. /

/Ok, Bakura. I'll follow your wishes/

Jounouchi walked over to Ryou and placed an arm around his thin shoulders.

"Why don't you come with us, Ryou to the arcade?"

Ryou could faintly hear growling coming from Bakura. Ryou moved Jounouchi's arm off his shoulders and the growling stopped.

"I'm sorry guys but I have to go straight home today to help my mom," he said walking away from the group.

/ Hmmm… so it seems my little host knows how to lie pretty well. /

Ryou walked faster as the group started yelling at him to come back and talk with them.

' I cannot go against what Bakura wishes it goes against everything I have been taught and I must follow these rules if I want to be a good submissive little mate like I'm supposed to be.'

/ Bakura, why do you call me host and not by my name? /

/ /When you have proven yourself worthy to me I shall call you by your name but for now you are my host. /

Ryou nodded in understanding he would just have to prove himself worthy of his mate. He soon made to his apartment where he lived by himself but now he wasn't alone he had his mate Bakura. Ryou went to his room and took off his school uniform. He hanged it up and put it away. Then he removed the pins and let his cat ears loose as well as his tail. Ryou gathered up all the things he would need for a bath before heading to the bathroom.

While he waited for the bath tub to fill up with water he decided he would talk to Bakura.

/ Bakura, you're my mate. /

/ What the hell is up with this mate business, host!/

Ryou stopped the water and poured some bubbles in his bath. He submerged himself in the hot water except for his ears. His cat instincts were protesting him being in the water but he loved taking baths more than following what his instincts were telling him.

/ Well are you going to me tell me or not? /

Bakura materialized in the bath with Ryou. Ryou blushed deeply and tried getting away from Bakura. Bakura grabbed his legs preventing Ryou from escaping him.

/ You are going to tell me right now why you keep calling me your mate. /

To emphasize his point he began to stroke Ryou's cat ears hoping he'd get a bad reaction from the other. What he got was the opposite of what he wanted Ryou began to purr and moan as Bakura kept stroking his sensitive cat ears.

/ Nghhh… Bakura please keep doing that. It feels so good. Oh Gods yes! More! More! /

Bakura stopped stroking Ryou's ears leaving Ryou to want it even more.

/ I'll continue if you tell me why I'm your mate/

'Hmmm…. if I tell him he'll make me feel good and if I don't he might leave me and I'll be alone again. I'll tell him but after I finish my bath.'

/ Could you please wait till after I finish my bath, Bakura? It's a very long story and it takes awhile for me to explain all the details/

/ Fine but you shall tell me as soon as your done with this/

Bakura went back into the Millennium Ring to let Ryou finish his bath. Ryou let himself relax in the warm water knowing that soon he'd have to tell Bakura everything.

Ryou dried his hair with his towel while he walked to his room and waited for Bakura to appear. He grabbed his brush on his nightstand and began to brush his hair till it was silky smooth. Bakura watched Ryou as he brushed his long white hair. He'd been in the room ever since Ryou walked his host just hadn't noticed him yet.

/ Are you done now little host? /

Bakura went to sit on Ryou's bed laughing at his host's startled expression. Ryou put down the brush he hadn't noticed Bakura in the room and it scared him when Bakura appeared out of nowhere.

"I guess I have to tell you now don't I?"

Bakura nodded and waited for Ryou to continue. Ryou sighed and hoped this would end well for him.


Yep next chapter is the explanation and remember Ryou has multiple mates. Bakura's just the first mate he's found. Can anyone guess who the other two are? I'll give you a clue he went by Namu.
