Hey readers!

So sorry for the very late update. My school is keeping me really busy. This chapter will be quite chunky since I will be revealing more of the world Misaki is in!

Thank you all for reviewing!

There is a question I wanted to ask Scriverane. For your review you said, 'I was hoping for more time and UST between them' What is UST? Yeah now you say it I always tend to forget in this story they were supposed to be strangers at first. I'll take note!

Because of my school, I have made a schedule for updating my stories. I'll update on every 15th on 30th or 31th of the month starting on Dec. But I think my test fall on mid Dec but I'll try my best to update so please continue to support me. ^^

Acknowledgements: Thanks to my sister – Vermillion Hart for editing my grammar mistakes.

Enjoy~

Chapter 5 – Fire Kingdom

"Ouch…" Sumi felt a sharp pain in his lower lip. He broke the kiss and used his fingers to rub the blood. "Stubborn, aren't you?" Sumi smirked.

"What…What do you want?" Takahiro demanded

Sumi chuckled; he lifted Takahiro bridal style and set him on the bed. He whispered some spells and a pair of metal cuffs appeared. Both of his hands were now tied to the bed post.

"What…! Release me!" Takahiro cried and struggled.

Sumi smirked as he climbed on top of Takahiro. "No can do." He said as he launched at Takahiro's neck.

"Ah…" Takahiro moaned. How can I make that sound!

Sumi chuckled when he heard Takahiro's moan. His hands slipped beneath his shirt and explored, brushing pass his nipples which hardened at the soft touch.

"Le...Let…me go…!" Takahiro said, a failed attempt to sound firm.

"You say let you go, but your body says otherwise." Sumi smirked as one of his hand slipped into Takahiro's pants and touched his manhood.

"Waa! What are you doing?" Takahiro cried in alarm, struggling futilely, the metal chains rattling as he struggled.

Sumi paid no attention to his cries. He unbuttoned Takhiro's pants and removed his underwear. He then moved down and put Takahiro's manhood in his mouth, sucking and teasing it.

"En…Ah…No…" Takahiro cried in pleasure, arching against the bed.

Sumi chuckled as he continued sucking and one of his and moved to the back and slowly pushed against his hole.

When Takahiro felt his finger, he panicked and struggled, "What are – ah!" Takahiro cried when he felt one finger slip inside him.

Sumi finally released his mouth from Takhiro's manhood, leaving it hard and wet. He concentrated on putting a second finger inside him. "God, you're tight. Even as you struggle, your inside is tightening around my fingers…" Sumi chuckled as he slipped a second finger inside.

"No! Take it out! It hurts…" Takahiro cried, tears swelling in his eyes.

Sumi's expression softened. He licked his tears and whispered, "You'll feel better in no time…"

Just when Sumi was exploring his good spots with his fingers, there was a knock on the door.

Sumi paused and got irritated. He bellowed deeply, "Who's there? Didn't I give clear instructions that no one is to disturb me?"

The voice at the door stammered, "But…but…my lo..lord, Lord Akihiko from the Wing Kingdom is requesting your presence."

Akihiko…? Usagi?

"So…he came…" Sumi mumbled. "Receive him in the library. I'll be there in a minute."

"Yes, my lord."

Sumi turned back to Takahiro. "I'll come back later to continue. In the mean time, stay here and rest. You'll need it." He chuckled, as he planted a kiss on his forehead.

Takahiro felt drowsy and his eyelids felt heavy. The last thing he saw was Sumi's back leaving the room and he blacked out.

"Nowaki, what have you found out?" Usami asked, gritting his teeth. Usami was sitting on his throne chair, tapping his fingers on the arm rest impatiently. He had gathered his generals to get reports on the missing Takhiro. And this time Misaki wanted to join them. He was sitting on the throne beside Usami, the throne for the queen. He had been stared by every single person in the court room. He wanted to just stand by the side but Usami commanded him to sit.

Before Nowaki, there were a few good-looking demons who presented their reports, which was the same after one another – "I'm sorry my lord, there is still no sign of Takahiro anywhere." When the finished their sentence, they were being blown off by an invisible force which sent them flying to the other end of the room. One after another, they were blown further and further back. Nowaki was the fifth person asked to deliver his report. The demon before him was being blasted out of the room, making a hole in the wall. Usami's anger was affecting the other demons. They were afraid to give their reports. It was Nowaki who volunteered to give his report.

He stepped forward and kneeled before Usami, on the red carpet. "My lord, Takahiro disappearance is a strange one. The other humans travelling with him were found, only Takahiro wasn't. He seemed to have vanished into thin air. My guess was he was being kidnapped."

Misaki who sat quietly cried, "My brother is being kidnapped?"

Nowaki's tone was still clam. He continued, "Yes, and if my theories are correct, he might be in the hands of the people in this world. I personally questioned the travellers and they seemed to have a part of their memory erased."

Misaki turned to face Usami and exclaimed, "There are other kingdoms here?"

"Of course there are!" Hiroki immerged from the crowd and pulled out a board and map out of nowhere. The map showed four huge islands of different colours: red, green, blue and brown.

Hiroki pulled a pointer from his sleeve and pointed at the map. "In this world, there are only four islands. Fire Kingdom, the island in the north. It is a place filled with volcanoes. Only the beings that can withstand the heat live there. Because of the volcanoes, they have mines filled with precious jewels. The island in the east is called the Water Kingdom. It has the world's purest water that ever existed. In the south, the island is called Earth Kingdom. Plants prosper and even the strangest beast can survive in the Kingdom. On the west lies the Wind Kingdom. It used to be a deserted land filled with only sand. But our lord has changed it, making it suitable for living."

"So this is the Wing Kingdom I'm in?" Misaki asked dumbly.

"Of course this is the Wind Kingdom." Hiroki replied proudly.

"And, do you have any idea which kingdom he might be in?" Usami asked Nowaki who was still kneeling down.

"My spies said he may be in the Fire Kingdom."

Usami stood up suddenly and slammed his hands on the arm rest of his throne. He gritted his teeth and hissed, "Keiichi Sumi! I should have known it's him!"

"Keiichi Sumi…? Don't tell me he's my senpai in school?"

Hiroki, Nowaki and Usami all turned and stared at Misaki in shock. It was Hiroki who spoke first. "Keiichi Sumi is in our school?" Hiroki practically yelled. "Why haven't I seen him before?"

Misaki stammered, "It…it might not be…be the same Sumi-senpai…"

"We'll just have to pay him a visit and we'll know the truth soon enough. Nowaki, prepare my carriage!" Usami ordered.

"Yes, my lord." Nowaki answered as he retreated from the room.

"Hiroki…"

"Yes, my lord?" Hiroki kneeled in front of Usami when his name was called.

"During my absence, I'll leave this castle with you. And take care of Misaki."

Hiroki threw a dark glare at Misaki before answering, "Yes, my lord."

"No!" Misaki cried and everyone in the room turned to face him.

"You dare not obey my orders?" Usami thundered.

Misaki jerked back a bit and said firmly, looking straight into Usami's eyes. "I'm coming with you!"

Usami stared at him for a while before he turned away and said as he was walking out, "Alright…you can come but, you must stay with me at all times!"

A smiled formed on Misaki's face and he said, "I will!" and he followed Usami out of the throne room.

As Misaki walked out of the room, he could hear whispers and mumblings.

"Did you see that?"

"Yeah…"

"Our lord took back his orders…"

The whisperings can still be heard even after the door closed behind him.

On their way to the Fire Kingdom, Misaki learnt more about the world he was in.

When the carriage passed by towns and villages, Misaki saw human-like beings and beast-like beings.

"Why are there beings like humans while the others are totally beast?" Misaki asked.

"In this world, two populations dominate the world: The Halves and The Beasts. The Halves are human-like beings like me. I have wings but I could keep ?" Usami's wings glowed and disappeared.

"It's just that we will never be like humans." He continued, staring outside of the carriage window. "Our mark as Halves will still be on our body somewhere… Mine is on my chest. We get our marks from our ancestors. My mark belongs to the royal family." Misaki looked at Usami, whose expression seems far and sad.

"The Beasts are beings that look totally like animals. Well, they are more special than the normal animals from your world. They have intelligence that won't lose to The Halves. You have seen them right? Some of them are my best generals."

Misaki nodded and the two of them kept quiet for some time. Misaki saw them passing by more towns and villages before he fall asleep.

By the time he woke up, the sky was dark and they were in a desert-like place.

"Where are weee?" Misaki asked as he yawned.

"The border between the west and north." Usami answered. He took a bottle out and mumbled a spell, causing the bottle to glow. He passed the bottle to Misaki and said, "Drink this; a human can't stand the temperature in the Fire Kingdom. This should last you for twenty-four hours."

Misaki drank quietly and in a flash, the desert they were in was gone. It was being replaced by lavas and volcanoes.

"We're here, the Fire Kingdom."

"Welcome to my kingdom. What do I have here to receive such an important person like you, Usami-sama?"

Misaki and Usami were being received into the library when they reached the Fire Kingdom's castle.

Misaki waited nervously for Sumi to come. He sat in the corner and looking down at his feet. A familiar voice which caught his attention.

"Sumi-senpai!" Misaki cried excitedly. Sumi was the only person in school who paid any attention to him. Misaki wanted to walk forward to greet him, but he was stopped by Usami who stretched his hand out blocking his way.

"Hello Sumi." Usami said coldly.

Sumi stood there smirking. "So? What have you come for?"

"Answers! I came for answers. I heard you have one of my citizens in your kingdom. I came here to check it out." Usami said, glaring at him.

"Oh? I heard of no such thing. I'm so sorry you have to come such a long way for nothing. And may I ask who the citizen might be, to make Usami-sama come all the way here?" Sumi said and folded his arms.

"Well if this is the Sumi-senpai, I'm sure he would not lie." Misaki said, grinning. "Sumi-senpai, I didn't know you were part of this world!"

"Well, the world is full of mystery, isn't it?" Sumi smirked. "Please, Usami-sama, since you came all the way here; do stay for a few days. Misaki and I have a lot to catch up on."

"I refuse!" Usami said, grabbing Misaki's hand, pulling him out of the room.

"But…But I want to stay here for a while!" Misaki said, trying to free himself.

Usami paused and turned to glare at Sumi. "Alright, but Misaki and I will be in one room."

What? Usagi-san and I in a room?

"As you wish. You there, show Usami-sama to his room." Sumi commanded.

"Why do I have to share a room with you?" Misaki asked nervously as they followed the servant.

Usami did not reply Misaki. When they were shown into the room, Usami dismissed the servant immediately, and locked the door behind him.

"It's time you know your place and listen to me for once." Usami said coldly as he approached Misaki.
