The next morning.

Kazuki slowly opened his eyes and saw he was curled next to someone. He looked up and saw it was Chikane. His face went really red as he pulled away and sat up. Chikane felt that and woke up. She saw he was awake and sat up.

"Morning Kazuki did you sleep well?" Chikane asked. Kazuki nodded his head yes. "Good." Chikane said with a smile. Chikane soon got up to bring some food for Kazuki she had already told him to not leave the room.

"Wake up Himeko!" Makoto yelled.

Himeko woke up and sat up.

"What's up Mako?" Himeko asked. "Today we have to go with dad remember." Makoto said with a smile. Himeko remembered and quickly got ready. Soon they both were ready and left there room to meet up with there father.

Later. "Good morning girl's." There father said with a smile. "Morning dad!" They both said as they went and hugged him. Tsubasa and Souma smiled. "Shall we go." Kaze said. They all got on there horses and rode off.

Later. Himeko, Makoto and Souma were sitting down and watching the king and his knight question some werewolves. It's true that they are prisoners but they get to wear the cloths they are caught in and they are only chained if they are near the king. They all get there own cell as well.

Much better treatment the humans get.

The werewolf glared at them. "Please all we want to know is when he plans to attack again." Kaze said. "Like hell! Why should I tell you! My king will kill you all! Just watch!" The werewolf said with a smirk as he glared at the girl's. Souma saw that and got in front of them.

"I think that's enough. Please return him to his cell." Kaze said. "Yes sire." Some guards said as they took him away. "You two alright?" Souma asked. "We're fine Souma all he did was look at us." Makoto said as she went and playfully hit Souma. Himeko lowered her head. I wonder. Himeko thought.

"Is something wrong?" Kaze asked as he noticed Himeko was looking down. "No nothing sorry." Himeko said with a smile as she looked at her father. He smiled back. "Well how about we all take a break and get something to eat." Kaze said.

Everyone was up for it. As they all left. When they were finished they all went back to question the rest of the werewolves but no one would answer. Tsubasa and Kaze were getting tired and decided to take one more break before the last one of the day. Makoto and Souma went with them.

Himeko stood in the room this time.

All of the werewolves look right at me. I wonder why? Himeko thought. "Hey you!" A voice said. Himeko looked up to see the werewolf that was being questioned next. "Why do you smell like Chikane?" He asked. Himeko froze. She thought she had washed off the sent.

"I don't know what your talking about." Himeko said as she got up and was going to leave. "One more thing if I were you human I would be careful. Chikane is after all the daughter of the king she may try to be kind like her mother but she is her fathers daughter after all." The werewolf said with a smirk.

Himeko turn and was looking at him. "What do you mean?" Himeko asked. "Chikane's mother was really kind she would try to help humans and since Chikane spent so much time with her I guess it rubbed off on her. But after her mother was killed that's when her father started to change.

He became even more cut throat then before and he wanted his daughter to be the same way. His treatment to her changed as well he made her come to everything interrogations and executions. His training with her was much more painful. Chikane is as cold as her father.

If I were you human I wouldn't go near her again from the smell of you your lucky you got away alive." He said with a smirk. Himeko lowered her head as she left the room. He's wrong Chikane isn't evil! She's kind! Himeko thought as she kept walking.

Kaze and Tsubasa saw her leave and told Makoto and Souma to follow.

They took off after her as the two adults went inside to finish up. Meanwhile. Himeko was sitting under a tree. "Himeko what's wrong?" Makoto asked as she and Souma sat down next to her. "It's nothing I'm fine you guys." Himeko said as she lifted her head and smiled at them.

"Did that werewolf say something to hurt you?" Souma asked. "Kind of. But I know it's not true so I'm fine." Himeko said. "That's right you should never believe werewolves it will only lead to the death of you." Makoto said.

Himeko froze as she lowered her head again. Makoto and Souma saw that and looked at each other. Can I? Can I really trust in Chikane? I want to believe I can but. Himeko thought as she stood like that.

A few weeks past and it was finally the night of the full moon.

Himeko left her room and headed for the stables. She got on her horse and rode off. Later. She stopped and was happy to see Chikane there. She ran over to her and without thinking gave her a hug. Chikane was a bit surprised but she smiled and hugged her back.

Soon they pulled away from each other. Himeko's face was really red realizing that she just ran up and hugged Chikane. "Sorry about that. I was just so happy to see you so I guess I got carried away." Himeko said as she lowered her head to cover her really red face.

Chikane smiled. "I missed you too Himeko." Chikane said. Himeko looked up at Chikane's smiling face and smiled back. Himeko then noticed someone. Chikane saw that. "O right this is Kazuki. I was wondering if you can take him back with you and find him a good human family." Chikane said as they both were looking at the sleeping boy.

"Of course I think I know just the people." Himeko said with a smile.

They both sat down next to Kazuki. "Umm Chikane what was your mother like?" Himeko asked. Chikane froze and looked up at the moon. "My mother was very kind. People couldn't believe she was my father's mate. She was the exact opposite of my father. She was kind and gentle.

She would even protect humans sadly that's what got her killed but before she didn't care what my father said she wanted to help and she also wanted peace in this world that way I could live happily." Chikane said with a smile. "She sounds wonderful I wish I could have met her." Himeko said.

Chikane looked at her.

"And yours?" Chikane asked. "My mother was also really kind. My father always tells me I'm just like her. She loved bring me out here with her on night's like this. We would talk about everything. She too wanted peace in this world that way I could be happy and not be afraid of anyone different then me.

She hated when the guards were telling me and Mako about how evil werewolves are." Himeko said. "Mako? Who's that?" Chikane asked. "O I forgot I didn't tell you about her. She's my half sister. I call her Mako but her full name is Makoto. He have the same father but different mothers.

Her mother was killed in a attack and so she came to live with us. My mother treated her just like her own so it was fun." Himeko said with a smile. "I see." Chikane said. "What about you Chikane any brother's or sister's?" Himeko asked.

"No. I'm an only child. But I do have a friend named Otoha. I hope one day you'll get to meet her." Chikane said with a smile. Himeko's face went a little red. "Great I hope so to. And I hope one day you can meet Mako and Souma." Himeko said.

"Souma?" Chikane asked. "O he is my childhood friend. He is the family I have in mind for Kazuki. Him and his older brother are good friends of my family and they are both knight's so he'll be well taken care of." Himeko said with a smile.

"What's a knight?" Chikane asked.

"There protectors of the royal family." Himeko said. "Don't you have protectors?" Himeko asked. "Nope. Us werewolves don't need them. My father has a general that helps him but trust me my father needs no protection." Chikane said.

"Is this general your families friend?" Himeko asked. "Yup. He has known my father for along time since they were kids. His sister Miyako was best friends with me mother." Chikane said. "Was?" Himeko asked. "She was killed when my mother was." Chikane said.

"I see I'm sorry." Himeko said. "No need. I'm sorry about your mother as well." Chikane said. "Umm Chikane what's your father like?" Himeko asked. Chikane froze as she lowered her head. "My father use to be very calm and had a soft spot for me and my mother. But after my mother was killed he changed.

He became really cold and quick to anger. He hates humans with all his heart and will never stop this war until humans are all killed or miserable." Chikane said as she made herself look at Himeko. "And yours?" Chikane asked.

"My father is really kind but he can be cold when he has to. He will never let werewolves win. He hates werewolves as well since it was them who killed are mother." Himeko said they both lowered there heads. "I can only think of what would happen if they found out." Chikane said.

"Yeah." Himeko said as they stood that way for awhile.

"Himeko are you afraid of me?" Chikane asked. Himeko looked up at Chikane who still had her head down. "Not at all." Himeko said. "You should be." Chikane said as she got up and walked away. Himeko got up and followed.

"Why should I be?" Himeko asked. Chikane stopped and turned to face her. "Would you like to see why? Do you really want to know?" Chikane asked. Himeko stopped and looked confused. "Himeko if you truly wish to see why you should be afraid of me I will show you but only if you want." Chikane said as she closed her eyes waiting for Himeko's answer.

"Chikane I don't understand what your talking about?" Himeko said. "Himeko the reason your not afraid of me is because you have only seen me in this form. But would you still want to see me if you saw what my true form is what us werewolves really look like. Or would you run away in fear like all humans do." Chikane said.

"I see. Then please saw me." Himeko said as she closed her eyes.

Chikane opened hers and was looking at Himeko. "I want to know everything about you Chikane. And so that also means I want to know what you look like when you're a werewolf." Himeko said. Chikane understood as she closed her eyes and changed. "Himeko open your eyes." Chikane's voice was inside Himeko's mind.

Himeko did what Chikane said and opened her eyes. She looked in front of her. "This is the real me." Chikane said. In front of Himeko was a beautiful bluish black werewolf with cold royal blue eyes that were staring at Himeko. She was standing on all fours she was only a little bigger then a wolf as she was staring at Himeko to see if she would run away.

She was surprised to see that Himeko went and kneeled in front of her and hugged her. "Your so beautiful Chikane." Himeko said. Chikane closed her eyes. "Thank you Himeko." Chikane said. Himeko soon let go and Chikane closed her eyes and changed back into her beautiful human form.

They both smiled at each other.

Soon after that. "It's getting late we should head back." Chikane said as she got up and put her hand out to Himeko. Himeko took it and Chikane helped her up. After that Himeko got on her horse and was holding the sleeping Kazuki in her arms.

"See ya soon right Chikane?" Himeko asked. "Right." Chikane said with a smile. Himeko's face went a little red. "Alright bye Chikane." Himeko said with a smile. "Bye Himeko." Chikane said with a smile. Himeko went and rode off.

Chikane stood and watched until she was out of sight. She turned and was heading back when she stopped and looked up at the moon. Mother. Chikane thought as she smiled and headed back to the palace.

Later. Chikane walked in and froze to see Girochi there. "I caught you Chikane." Girochi said with a smirk. Chikane glared at him.
