It seemed like hours they flew over land and water. Finally, when they came to a stop, they landed on a boat. Several people neared, all looking very familiar to Saya. Saya stifled her steps as she looked at the black haired man.
"Saya, do you remember us?" Hakumei asked. Saya stood still and confused as she looked at the black haired man.
"You're...Hagi," Saya asked softly. Hagi nodded his head. Saya ran into his arms and wept. She had never been so grateful to be in a man's arms.
"Carl told me you were evil...but I don't believe him anymore. Please, tell me all he has done to me. I don't want to love him anymore, give me the strength to kill him..." Saya whimpered as Hagi held her. Their heartbeats were the same as Saya listened.
Carl's eyes fluttered open, how long had he been out? He had been terribly injured, that's all he could remember. And that he had lost a lot of blood.
"Carl, thank God you're awake," one of the scientists said. Carl was lying on a hospital bed with a blood drip in his arm.
"Where's Saya?" he demanded angrily.
"She was abducted by that Chevalier. We don't know their exact location but we have a hunch that Red Shield Head Quarters is nearby. We sent out a search party," the scientist said. Carl pulled the blood drip from his arm and smirked.
"Well, my bride is in for a rude awakening," he said with as his eyes glowed red.
"In the end, we thought you were dead. That is until now," Hagi said. They were in an infirmary room on the ship. Saya sat on the bed wearing a new attire. A black dress, she remembered that she had worn this before. All she knew was she had worn a dress like that at that farm place.
"So, Carl and I are still enemies?" Saya asked. She wiped her tears away with the back of her sleeve. She inhaled deeply, her eyes consumed by tears of joy and pain.
Hagi nodded his head.
"But, why then? Why would he have treated me like an equal? Like a lover..." Saya asked.
"To Carl, you are both his reason for living and his enemy. I guess, when he couldn't stand his loneliness anymore he turned to you as both enemy and lover. That's why he kept you in his bed. That is why he made you drink his blood and try to suppress your memory," Solomon told her. He sat beside her and hugged her to solace her.
"Then...I really was just nothing but a breeding animal. All those nights of laughter and blissful passion were just simple seduction?" Saya asked, but, by her tone of voice one could tell she did not want an answer.
"You're safe now, Saya, we promise he will not hurt you anymore. We will kill him, leave it to us," Solomon said.
"No..." Saya whimpered.
"I-I would like to kill Carl. That is my love for him. I love him to kill him and that is how it shall be," Saya said, her voice growing stronger with envy.
"If that is your wish." Hagi said.
