Chapter 3

Usui wakes up in a dimly lit room. He takes a moment to breath in Akumi's smell clinging to the sheets, but soon feels another's presence in the room. He quickly sits up and sees a person sitting in a chair across from him.

"Good morning, princess."

Usui reaches for his bottoms, quickly putting them on. "…and you are?"

The man stands up and bows. "I am one of the guards. Lord Akumi is calling for you and I'll be your escort."

"Why doesn't he just come and get me himself?"

"I'm afraid he is a very busy man. Now please allow me to show you the way."

Usui slowly gets up from the bed and follows the guard as they walk silently to Akumi's office. The guard opens the door for Usui before bowing slightly and walking away. Usui walks into the office and sees Akumi working diligently. He looks up from his work confusion written on his face.

"What are you doing here?"

Usui points to the door. "One of your guards said you wanted to see me.. Was he mistaken?"

"What did this guard look like?"

"He was slightly taller than me, white skin, long dark hair, red eyes..? Why?"

Anger flashes across Akumi's face and he lets out a low growl. "Where did you meet him?"

"He was already in the room when I woke up… Akumi! If he's not one of your guards then who is he?"

"I think it's my brother, Sayuri." He taps his fingers on the desk "You can't be alone anymore. I'll assign a guard to look after you while I'm working."

"But why? I could take care of myself."

"Sayuri isn't like us. He's a full blood demon. You were /turned/ into a vampire and my mother was human. These are limitations, Usui."

He looks at Akumi defeated. "Alight. Just… I'd rather you be my guard."

A smile breaks across Akumi's face. "I would, but I have work." Stands up and walks over to Usui. "I promise it will just be us at night."

He sighs and wraps his arms around Akumi's neck. "Alright then."

Akumi smirks and holds Usui's waist to his own kissing him lightly. "I've got work so I won't go straight back to our room. There should be a guard waiting to escort you. Oh! And, don't leave the palace."

Usui reluctantly leaves the office and is guided back to the bedroom. While he understands the reason he isn't allowed to leave the palace, staying in the one place for an extended period can leave one feeling restless. So, it's no wonder that after a few days, Usui starts to feel restless and wants to leave, even if it's just for a few moments. Around lunchtime the next day, Usui slips past the guard watching him and heads towards the front entrance. As he's walking, he feels someone grab the back of his shirt and drags him in the nearest bedroom. Usui is thrown onto the bed and is shocked when he sees Akumi: he thought for sure it was Sayuri. He sits quietly on the bed watching Akumi pace, obviously angry.

"Why? I told you it's dangerous to be by yourself. What would you have done if I were Sayuri?"

Usui looks away. "I'm not sure, but being stuck here… I feel like I'm slowly going insane."

Anger flashes across Akumi's eyes and he pins Usui against the bed, lying on top of him. "At least you'd be safe!"

"You should at least let me leave once a week! We could go, just us. That would be safest and it would satisfy me."

"Once a week?" He looks down at Usui scanning his eyes.

"Yes. Just once a week. You and me." He smiles meeting his gaze.

Akumi leans down kissing Usui hungrily and places a hand on his hip bringing him closer. Usui slips his hand down and unbuttons Akumi's pants and starts rubbing. From Akumi's mouth escapes a low growl of pleasure, as he grows hard in Usui's hand. A seductive grin appears on his face. Akumi's hand made it to Usui's length and he begins stroking slightly. Then he makes his way down slowly and licks the throbbing member from the base to tip. Usui shudders slightly at the touch. Akumi takes the member into his mouth, sucking lightly and nudges at Usui's hole with his finger. This pushes him over. Usui starts panting in between moans. Akumi pulls away and climbs on top of his lover giving a powerful thrust. He watches Usui's face go from a look of pain and slight discomfort to a look of pure pleasure. He starts thrusting harder and deeper, growling in pleasure, as he gets closer to climax. Usui starts stroking his own length and soon they both come together.
