Reina groaned as she felt her head throb in pain. 'What happened?' she thought, trying to sit up. She couldn't move her hands nor feet. They were tied and bound tight together.

"What's going on here?" She looked around, taking in her surrounding. She smelled the mixture of the salty air from the ocean and wood. Her eyes widened with fright as she saw the group of thugs sitting at a table playing cards.

"Ah, I see you're awake."

She turned to the voice. "Let me go! What do you want?" she asked, frightened. The group of thugs at the table rose at the sound of her voice. The man in the white suit signaled to them to sit and continue their game. He walked up to her with a grin on his face.

"Don't worry. We don't want you. We just want to use you as bait to get to your boyfriend." He slid a hand down her cheek.

Reina lurched away, not wanting him to touch her. "Don't touch me! What do you want with Kyo?"

"Kyo? Kyo?! Who the hell is Kyo?!" He asked laughing. "I'm talking about Shin."

"Shin?" Reina asked confused. "Shin's not my boyfriend."

The man immediately stopped laughing, eyes narrowing. "What do you mean he's not your boyfriend? We've been watching him for weeks. We know that he's with you most of the time and you also went to his house." The man gripped her by the chin hard, before smiling. "Oh, I see. Pretending that you're not his girlfriend so we'd release you, huh? Sorry, not happening. If you're really not his girlfriend or anyone of significance to him, then we'll just kill you."

Reina's eyes widened with fear. The man laughed and released her chin. His gaze slid down her face to her body, making her feel sick inside. "My, my. You're a busty one, aren't you?" He slid a hand to her breast, squeezing it hard. Reina winced in pain. He took out his switchblade from his pocket and cut the first two buttons of her blouse, exposing her bra.

"Don't touch me!" Reina screamed, trying to scoot away from him. She was yanked back hard against him.

"I'll touch you if I want." He grabbed a handful of her hair and pulled hard, arching her neck. He licked her neck to her ear. "You're a delectable little treat, aren't you?" He laughed as she struggled. He thrust her away from him, making her fall against the crates. "I can't wait to see the look on Shin's face when he gets here." He walked away to join the others at the table, still laughing.

'Kyo, where are you?' Reina body wracked with sobs as she laid on the dirty floor, scared and helpless.


Kyo shut off the engine and took off his helmet. "Is this the place?"

"Yeah, I think so." Shin got off and walked around before pointing at the guarded entrance. "There! That's where they are."

Kyo looked where Shin pointed. Two big guys in black suits stood guard. Kyo pulled out his phone.

Shin placed a hand over his. "Don't call the cops. They'll kill her."

Kyo shook off his hand. "I'm not that stupid. I'm calling my old man. If something happened to any of us, at least they'll know why and where to look." Kyo dialed home. After the fifth ring, he hung up. "What the hell? No one's home?"

"Come on. The longer you waste time, the longer Reina might be suffering," Shin said impatiently.

Kyo body tensed with fear as he stuffed the cell back in his pocket. 'Reina... hold on.'

"So what do we do?" Kyo said grimly.

"You go around the back and I'll go in the front. While I distract them, you take Reina and get out of there."

"Not that I personally care, but what about you?"

"Heh, they won't hurt me. My old man's the mob boss. I guess that comes in handy once in awhile." Shin grinned.

"Alright. Be careful, then."

"Aw, I didn't know you cared," Shin smirked.

"I don't, but Reina does. I don't know why, but she'll be sad… for a day or two. Something I'd rather not have her endure."

"Yeah, yeah. Just get her out."

Kyo hesitated for a moment before giving him a nod. Shin nodded back and watched Kyo sneak around to the back before taking a deep breath and proceeded towards the door. He walked up to the two guards and held up his hands when he saw them take a step towards him.

"Whoa, whoa, hold up. I believe I was invited here." The two men searched him before opening the door and shoving him in. "Ow, damn baboons."

"Well, well. If it isn't Shin Takeda. Welcome." The man in white stood up from the table, grinning.

Shin frowned. "Who the hell are you? What did you do with Reina?"

The man in white put his hands over his heart. "Aw, I'm hurt that you don't remember me. Well it has been what, five or six years since we've seen each other."

Shin raised one brow in surprise. "Five or six years?"

The man laughed. "Oh, you are too funny. Well, let me reintroduce myself." He bowed. "Toshio Sakamura, at your service."

"Sakamura?" Shin knew he heard of the name before, but he couldn't recall where.

"Yes, Sakamura. Still doesn't ring a bell?" Toshio walked closer to him. "I tutored you when you were in middle school." Shin's eyes widened with recognition.

"Ah, yes, you finally remember," Toshio sneered. "My father worked for yours, so naturally your father asked me to teach his failing son. You never wanted to learn and ditched your lessons."

"So, what? This is about some tutoring lessons I missed?" Shin asked astonished. "That's why you're all pissed?"

"No you fool! This is about your father murdering my family! He let my father take the blame for something he did. My father was devastated at the embarrassment and humiliation your father let him go through! He went crazy and murdered my mother and sister before killing himself. If I was home, I would of been dead too!" Toshio screamed with rage, spittle coming out of his mouth.

Shin saw Kyo from the corner of his eye slowly creeping towards Reina. 'I need to distract him.' He walked a little to his right and leaned on the wooden crates.

"What does that have to do with me? That's between you and my old man. Why don't you go talk to him instead." Shin said with a bored look.

Toshio laughed evilly. "Don't you get it?! You're my trump card. I'm going to make him pay dearly."

Shin saw Kyo untie Reina. His gaze went back to Toshio. "Make him pay? How? By killing me?" Shin saw him blink in surprise. Shin laughed. "Was that it? Like my old man gives a shit. He doesn't care about me. I'll be one less mouth to feed to him."

Toshio's eyes narrowed with suspicion. "You're his only son. Heir to his dirty empire. He would care."

Shin laughed. "Heir? My old man's a playboy. I'm sure there are plenty of women for him to impregnate for a new heir."

"Don't try to play me for a fool. Let's see how your old man's gonna feel like when we send him a picture of you all bloody." Toshio signaled to the men standing by the table to beat up Shin.

Shin moved away from the crates and stood in a defensive pose, waiting for the group to make a move.

"Come on, Reina. We gotta go," Kyo whispered in her ear.

"But, we can't just leave him here. We have to help him." Reina watched as the group surrounded Shin. "Kyo, please."

Kyo looked at Reina's pleading eyes and sighed with defeat. "Fine, but hide here. If we're in trouble, run through the backdoor as far as you can then call for help. Here's my cell." Kyo took off his jacket and draped it around Reina's shoulders before heading towards Shin.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you," Kyo said as he approached them. They all turned towards him.

"Who the hell are you?!" Toshio asked.

"Someone you don't wanna mess with," Kyo replied with a small grin.

"Domyouji? What the hell? I thought I told you to get outta here." Shin said, annoyed.

"Well, what can I say? I'm a sucker for a pair of beautiful eyes." Kyo shrugged.

Shin rolled his eyes and shook his head. "Whatever."

"Domyouji? Domyouji?! What the hell do you want?" Toshio snarled. "This is none of your business."

"You made it my business when you kidnapped my fiancee."

"Your fiancee?" Toshio turned towards Reina. "What the hell? Where'd she go?"

"Don't worry about her. You should worry about yourself. I'm gonna kick your ass for touching her."

"Well, well. Looks like I've got all the lucky cards in my hands tonight. Now I've got two trump cards. You'll fetch a high price."

"I don't think so." Kyo cracked his knuckles and advanced towards him.

Toshio backed up. "What are you still standing there for? Get him you fools!"

Half of the men surrounding Shin charged Kyo. Kyo was ready for them and smashed his fist into the first person that came within striking distance. Shin started fighting also, throwing fists and kicks. The two men fought with vigor, enjoying every hit that connected to a face. Exhausted and slightly battered, they stood back to back, waiting for the fallen men to get back up and fight. When none did, they relaxed a little and turned to face Toshio. They both froze when they saw Toshio standing with Reina, a gun pressed to her head.

"I won't go down that easily," he cried out insanely, waving the gun. "I'll kill you all and feed you to the sharks before I get caught."

"Just put the gun down and let her go. You don't want to hurt anyone," Kyo said to him calmly. "Whatever it is you want, we can give it to you. Just let her go."

Toshio laughed manically. "Whatever I want? Whatever I want! You can't give me back my family!"

"It won't bring your family back if you kill her either." Shin said cautiously.

"No, but it'll make me feel better knowing that your father will suffer, because of me!" Toshio pushed Reina forward. "Walk to them." Reina started walking slowly.

"Come to me, Reina," Kyo said slowly, not wanting to frighten her.

"Now die!" Toshio laughed.

"NOOOO!!" Kyo rushed forward to Reina, throwing himself on her, bringing them both crashing to the ground.

BANG!

Kyo held onto her tightly, covering her as much as he could as another shot rang out. He glanced up at Shin. Shin stood there, shocked, blood seeping from his arm. He glanced over to Toshio. He stood there paralyzed, eyes widening as he looked down, the crimson color of blood staining his shirt. His eyes rolled back and he fell to the ground with a loud thud. The room exploded with men in bullet proof vests entering at every door with big guns.

"POLICE! EVERYONE DOWN ON THE FLOOR!"

Kyo looked around as the room was swarmed. "We're going to be okay, Reina." He looked down at Reina, fiercely clutching his shirt.

Reina looked up at Kyo. "Are you okay?" Reina nodded. She looked over to Shin. "SHIN! You're bleeding!" Reina pulled out of Kyo's arms and ran to Shin as he collapsed onto the floor. "HELP!"

"We need a medic on scene." The officer checked Shin over. "Stay still, son. You're going to be alright."

Reina held Shin's hand as he laid there. "Guess I'm not quite the hero, huh?" He joked, managing a weak laugh before grimacing in pain.

"Shin, this isn't the time to joke." Reina scolded him, worriedly. "Oh my god, I can't believe you got shot." Reina brushed away a tear.

"Aw, don't cry. I guess I wasn't quick enough," Shin grinned. "OW! You son of a… stop rocking me so hard on this damn thing!" Shin complained as the medic attendants jostled him onto the stretcher.

"You're coming with me, right, Reina?" Shin asked as they loaded him in the ambulance.

"Um…" Reina looked back at Kyo.

"Please, Reina? I want someone to be with me until my dad gets there."

Reina hesitated a moment before nodding. 'This is my fault. It's the least I can do.'

"Let me go tell Kyo first. Be right back." Reina gave Shin a small smile before turning back towards Kyo.

Kyo stood to the side, fists clenched as he watched Reina tend to Shin. 'There's nothing to be jealous about. There's nothing to be jealous about.' He repeated to himself as he watched her hold his hand until they lifted Shin into the ambulance. She turned and hurried back towards him.

"Hey, Kyo... I'm going to go with Shin until his dad gets to the hospital… is that alright?"

Kyo looked away and jammed his fists deep into his pockets before shrugging. "Yeah, sure."

Reina gave a worried frown, noticing Kyo's change in attitude. "I'll call you as soon as I can, okay?"

Kyo couldn't look at her. If he did, he knew he'd beg her to stay with him. 'If she wants to go, let her go. What's the big deal. It's not like you're hurt, right?' Kyo clenched his jaw tight.

"Yeah."

Reina looked away, a little hurt by his uncaring attitude. She gave him a small smile and squeezed his arm before turning away, blinking the tears that sprang to her eyes away. She climbed into the ambulance and watched Kyo through the small window as they drove away, absently fingering her engagement ring.

"Hey, what's wrong?" Shin asked, squeezing her hand.

Reina squeezed his hand back and forced a smile, shaking her head.


Last week's incident with Toshio left a bad memory etched forever in her mind. The bullet that hit Toshio killed him. He was cremated and buried alongside his family. The thugs that helped him weren't as lucky. Kyo, Reina, and Shin's parents pressed charges and with the big influence that their families have, the men were sent to prison for the rest of their natural lives, but under some mysterious reasons the men disappeared from the prison, never to be seen or heard from again. Reina shook her head and pushed that incident back into a dark corner of her mind. As for her relationship with Kyo, it seemed to have changed from good to bad since that day. Reina couldn't quite figure Kyo out. One minute he was fine and the next he acted as if he didn't know her. She really don't know what to do anymore. Shin, thankfully was recovering from his injury so she hasn't seen much of him lately. His dad has him basically under house arrest for now. For her, her dad's been so protective it seems like she can't even step outside without him knowing her every move. She was allowed to stay in her home, but she has bodyguards everywhere. She drew the line when her father suggested hiring someone to taste her food! But all in all, she knew it was just because he loved and cared for her.

Reina yawned as placed the book she was reading down beside her and stretched her arm over her head. She glanced at her clock. 8:45 pm. She jumped as her phone rang loudly in the quiet room. She flipped her phone open and saw Meg's number flashing on her screen.

"Hey, Meg." Reina held the phone away from her ear as the loud noise on the other end blared in her ear.

"Hey, Reina, you busy?" Meg yelled.

"Just catching up on some reading. Why? What's up and why is it so noisy?"

"Wait, hold on." Reina brought the phone back to her ear as the noise slowly faded. "Well, I'm having a little get together at my house tonight and I was wondering if you wanted to come."

"Well…" Reina frowned, unsure if she should go. She didn't want to show up knowing Kyo might be there mad at her.

"Please, please, please?" Meg begged. "My parents are out of town and it'll be fun, I promise. Just a few of my good friends. You already know some of them. Kyo and the other guys will be there, too. I know you haven't seen my brother for awhile now and I bet you're dying to see him as much as he is to see you, right?"

'Not really.' Reina thought to herself. 'But I do need to talk to him.'

"Um, what time should I be there?"

"GREAT! It doesn't matter what time, just be here, okay?"

"Yeah, okay. What should I wear?"

"Whatever is fine. Informal."

They chatted for a bit before hanging up. 'Great. So what am I going to wear, now?' Reina sighed and rummaged through her closet for something to wear. She settled on a mini jean skirt and a pink tank top with matching flip flops. She grabbed her robe and headed into the bathroom to take a shower before heading to Meg's.


She walked up to the Domyouji's enormous mansion, hearing the music blaring from inside. She was greeted at the door by one of the maids and ushered inside. Her eyes widened with shock as she saw a little more than one fourth of the students at Eitoku there. 'Small party, huh? I should've known.'

"Hey, Reina! Glad you could make it!" Meg exclaimed excitedly as she hugged her. "Come on, have something to drink or eat."

"This isn't a 'little' get together, Meg." Reina said as she followed Meg.

"Oh, Reina, you know what I mean." Meg giggled. "Just have fun! Oh yeah, by the way, I invited your friend here too."

"Who?" Reina said shaking her head in confusion.

"That boy, Shin. I invited him too."

"What?! Why?!" Reina asked alarmed. She scanned the room for him. Kyo might flip if he saw Shin here.

"Why not?" Meg asked, confused by Reina's worried glances around the room. "Aren't you friends with him?"

"Yeah, but… I don't think it was a good idea." Reina dodged a group of giggling girls running past her as some guys chased them. "Are they drinking?!"

"Oh, Reina, don't be such a spoilsport. No one's driving home tonight. Their drivers will pick them up." Meg scolded Reina lightly. "Come on, I think Kyo's out by the pool with his little posse." Meg dragged her outside and waved at Seijun.

Reina looked around before her eyes settled on Kyo. She gasped as a wave of pleasure rippled throughout her body. She suppressed a small shiver as she felt Kyo's gaze still on her.

"I think I'll grab something to drink before going out there." Reina gave her a smile, before pulling away from the girl. "I'll met you later, okay?"

"Alright, but don't be long!" Meg lightly squeezed her arm before heading towards a group of people sitting by the pool.

Reina gave a sigh of relief as she went back in. She didn't think a week of not seeing Kyo, would affect her so much. 'Okay, I'm not ready to face him just yet, but damn he's a good looking man.' Reina shook her head and smiled. 'I'm such a dork.' Reina felt a hand grab her arm.

"Boo!"

"Shin!" Reina smiled as she turned to greet him with a hug. "How are you? How's the arm?"

"Oh, it's fine, and I feel so much better, now that I've found you." He pulled Reina away from the noisy room to a more quieter area in the garden. "So, how have you been?"

"Okay. Just kinda been hanging at home."

"Oh, god, don't mention the word 'home'. My old man's being such a jack ass. He wouldn't let me come to the party tonight."

"How'd you get out then?" Reina asked amused.

"Psh, that was easy. I pretended I was going to sleep early and just snuck out."

Reina rolled her eyes and laughed. "That's was lame."

"Hey, I'm here aren't I?"

Reina and Shin laughed, unaware of an angry Kyo heading straight for them.


Kyo's P.O.V

Seijun's waved as Meg waved to him. His eyes widened when he saw Reina. He nudged Kyo with his elbow.

"What?" Kyo asked, turning towards his friend.

"Look who just showed up." Seijun nodded his head towards the girls.

Kyo looked over to where his friend indicated and felt his heart skip a beat. Reina was standing there with Meg, looking cute in her outfit. Kyo took a swig of beer from his bottle. He felt desire shoot through him as she looked over to him. She quickly glanced away, said something to Meg before going back in the house. Kyo frowned, unhappy at her hasty retreat.

"Hey, Kyo, down this sucker with me," Akito said, thrusting another bottle of beer at him. "Friends for life right?" He clinked his bottle to Kyo's and began chugging. Kyo smiled and nodded at Akito.

"Friends for life." He began chugging the beer, not stopping until the last drop was swallowed.

"Shit, dude, remember that one time when we went camping?" Akito, slightly intoxicated began recalling all the fun times the boys spent together throughout the years. The group surrounding the boys laughed and cheered as Akito keep talking. A lazy smile formed on Kyo's lips as he relaxed against the recliner half listening to his friend while his gaze kept wandering back to the door, expecting Reina to pop out any time soon. After 10 minutes and 4 more bottles of beer, Kyo got impatient waiting for Reina to show up. He got up from his seat and headed towards the door.

"Hey, where you going? I haven't got to the good part yet." Akito complained as he saw Kyo get up.

"Bathroom. Keep on going." Kyo waved Akito on as he left. He went inside and looked for Reina. He frowned as he scanned the rooms unable to see Reina in any of them. He walked over to Meg.

"Hey, where's Reina?"

"Reina? She didn't come out yet?" Meg frowned.

"No, she didn't. Where is she?"

"How am I supposed to know. I thought she'd be with you."

"Oh, I saw her a little while ago," said the short haired girl standing next to Meg. "She went with some cute guy named Shin." The girl giggled at the mention of Shin's name.

"Shin? What the hell is he doing here?" Kyo glared at his sister in annoyance.

"Why?" Meg asked warily. "You don't like him?"

"Hell no. Why'd you invite him for?"

"Oh, well how the hell was I supposed to know you didn't like him? I invited him because he was Reina's friend, dip shit." Meg wrinkled her nose in disdain at her brother.

Kyo shook his head with disgust. "Whatever. Where'd they go?" he asked the girl.

"Um, that way." The girl nervously pointed towards the door heading towards the garden, regretting even mentioning seeing Reina.

"Thanks." Kyo started walking towards the garden. He was stopped by a small hand gripping his arm hard.

"You've been drinking, don't do anything stupid." Meg glowered at him.

Kyo shook her hand off. "Yeah, yeah. I just want to see her, that's all."

Meg watched him go, frowning. 'Maybe I should go get Seijun.' She quickly ran out to the pool.

Kyo marched into the garden and immediately heard Reina's laughter joined with Shin's. Kyo frowned with anger. 'Why is it that every time I hear her laugh, he's laughing with her? What the hell? She's my girlfriend.' He saw them sitting at the one of the benches that inhabited the garden. Kyo's eyes narrowed in on Shin's arm stretched around the back of the bench behind Reina. He walked up to them, jaw clenched, repeating to himself mentally to keep his cool.


Reina laughed at Shin. "Yeah, I'm glad you're here."

"Reina…"

Reina gasped and quickly stood as she heard Kyo's voice. "K-Kyo. What are you doing out here?"

"I'd like to ask you the same thing." Kyo managed a nod at Shin. "Takeda."

"Domyouji." Shin replied back warily, getting to his feet.

"We… were just talking." Reina said, laughing nervously.

"Oh, well how rude of you to not come by to greet me first."

Reina flushed with embarrassment. "Oh, well… I…"

"Is that anyway to treat your fiancee?" Kyo couldn't stop himself once he started. "I would've thought you'd be happy to see me, instead I find you here with another guy."

"Kyo…"

"Hey, come on, now, Domyouji. You're drunk. Just leave it, alright?" Shin started, standing in front of Reina.

Kyo's patience snapped. He threw a right hook so fast Shin didn't have time to react before he crumpled to the ground, knocked out cold.

"Shin!" Reina cried. She started towards Shin, but was yanked back by Kyo gripping her arm hard.

"Don't you think you should pay attention to me?" Kyo dragged her from the garden up a private path towards the private wing of he mansion.

"Kyo! Let go! Where are you taking me?!" Reina tried to break free, but his grip was too strong.

He dragged her into one of the rooms and threw her in. He closed the door, locking it in the process.

"Kyo… why are you doing this?" Reina asked, casting a wary glance at him leaning against the door, looking at her through hooded eyes. He continued staring at her, ignoring her question.

"Kyo-"

"Why do you do that?" He cut her off taking a step forward.

"Do what?" Reina asked confused.

"Why do you always laugh and smile with him? Why are you always happy with him and… not with me?" Kyo growled. He grabbed her by the arms, slightly shaking her. Reina's eyes widened as she looked at him with wild eyes and face flushed from the alcohol and anger.

"I… I'm not. I'm not always sm-"

Kyo cut her off again. "Why? Why can't you be like that with me? Don't you… want to be with me?" Kyo let her go and turned, running a hand through his hair in a jerky movement.

Reina was silent as she stared at his back. She didn't know that he felt like this. She didn't know what to say.

"Kyo… I'm sorry, I didn't-" She held a hand to touch him, but stilled when she heard his next words.

"I'm tired, Reina. I'm tired of it all. If you don't want to be with me… then let's end it."
