Notes: Sorry for the awfully long time I haven't updated. The last two weeks were hectic since it was our finals. It's not that I study… But well, you know. Haha! Well, anyways, sorry!

The Rounds

Round IV. Boy-Girl Relationships

Sweet Temptress

.

'Ruka,' That was all she needed to say for him to lock the door and proceed right beside her in his, or more appropriately, their bed. 'Who is she?' The girl asked. The blond boy shrugged and unbuttoned his uniform.

'She's… Someone. Picked by Natsume himself. I don't really know. Maybe it's the whole, 'A new heir' thing in their family. He wants her, maybe.' He said calmly as the girl helped him to remove his shirt. But as the girl accidentally tumbled over resulting them in a position they were both powerless against, Ruka's eyes changed. It did not show calmness or goodness. It was painted danger, with a capital D. No, wait. It was painted DAnger with a capital D and A.

Suddenly, he smiled ever-so-innocently, 'But you know what I do want…' He removed his shirt. The girl smiled as she positioned herself more comfortable above him. 'Hotaru…' He called out her name.

'Ruka,' Her cold voice snapped, 'Kiss me.' And he gladly did.

'Were the girls successfully killed, Persona?' A woman with long dark brown hair asked a man who wasn't aware of any other colour besides black.

'Yes, First Lady.' He answered with respect as he still bowed in front of the woman's throne. The woman laughed. Evilly, I may add.

'Very good, Persona. You are dismissed.' The man stood up from his respectful bow and flee. The woman smirked with her perfectly red lips. She called upon her servants. 'My loyal servants, prepare a grand feast tonight. I have a very good surprise for the President.' She chuckled once again while taking a cigar into her mouth.

I woke up at the sound of a gentle knock on my door. I rubbed my eyes and got up to answer. I opened the door surprised to see Anna again.

'Madame, 'tis your breakfast. Enjoy.' She rolled in a hearty meal of steak. And I ate to my heart's content. She took a bow and left the room, locking the door. Just before I could take the last bite from my meal, the door clicked open. And was locked once again, entered Natsume Hyuuga himself.

'How did you— ' He cut me off by kissing me softly.

'Don't worry, I'm the only one who has the key to the room of my girl.' He announced as he looked around my room. 'What the hell is this rubbish?' He seemed to be disgusted by the room. 'I said for the most beautiful woman on earth and they designed a room as ugly as this?' He seemed angry. The moment he stepped in, he looked a little… Well, tired. Maybe it was because of all the pressure being a General. I didn't know what to do since he was starting to spat out colourful choice of words which were bad for the young minds. Then something popped. I remembered the Deputy's words…

We need someone to go back on after we win.

So that's what I was supposed to do.

'Natsume.' He stopped and looked at me.

'What?' He still seemed a bit angry.

'Come here.' I motioned for him to sit beside me on my bed. Ever so suddenly, anger seemed to flash out of him. He sat beside me. He just sat beside me. Period. So, what was I supposed to do now?

Oh, right. Do my job, that's what.

'So... Tell me about your job.' He chuckled as he babbled on.

'Dearest!' The woman kissed her husband good evening as the husband just smiled at the sight of his wife.

'What is it, sweetheart?' He asked his wife. The woman, with excited eyes, just simply bounced.

'You won't believe it, Sasuke,' She said excitedly, 'The girls are dead!' She announced sounding triumphant. 'Didn't you hear me?' She exclaimed once again. 'I said, the girls are DEAD!'

Sasuke Hyuuga became equally happy as well. Only, he wasn't bouncing up and down like his wife did. He remained composed.

'And!' The woman continued, 'I, planned a special feast just for the two of us to celebrate! Now c'mon before it becomes cold!' Sasuke's seventh wife pulled him towards the kitchen.

You see, this is exactly why Sasuke loved his seventh wife. She was full of surprises and she could take care of things her own ways. And even though she knew she wasn't the first wife of Sasuke, she remained joyful. She was honoured to become the new First Lady of Japan. She was just… different from his other wives. She wasn't just a beauty. But she had the brains as well.

The Rounds; to be continued.

How boring. And can anyone guess why I entitled this chapter, 'BOY-GIRL RELATIONSHIPS'? If anyone can guess, I'll shower you with pixie dust. Lol. Anyways, sorry!

Will you, do me? A review, I mean. :))
