Chapter 8

Normal POV

Ikuto was shocked. The blond-haired man was the man that had taken Amu to dinner yesterday. Amu was in danger, but how could he tell her? She wouldn't trust him! Ikuto flipped the paper to the next page, on there were written some informations about the blond-haired man. At least, his record was far behind his father. He was the one that controlled the 'strategy' for the black market that his father had while his father was the one who did the dealing and he kept his identity too.

The world had known him as the heir of Takahashi Inc., the biggest corporation in the world – thanks to his father's black market so they could build a great business. Ah, not to mention, Tsukiyomi Inc. had improved their business, now they were a little behind Takahashi Inc. – thanks to Aruto's hard work for having built a great empire.

Ikuto kept reading the infromation that was stated in the file, he had to know about the blond man more to 'finish' him. But, how about Amu? The pink-haired girl absolutely didn't have any idea about this black market and gang things.

"Ikuto..." a girl voice called him.

Shit! Saaya was coming... Ikuto cursed inside his mind. Saaya had been bothering him for a moment. He didn't have time to deal with the red-head girl. God, why was she so annoying?! Can't she be calm for a minute or two? Ikuto thought. Why in the hell did I marry this girl? Ikuto asked himself. To protect the only girl that you love, his inner answered him.

That's right, in order to protect Amu he had sacrificed his own happiness for her. He hurt himself. But little did he know that he hurt Amu too, of course he didn't know that Amu loved him and Amu didn't know that Ikuto loved her. Life was just so complicated.

"Ikuto..." Saaya called him again.

He groaned and let himself out from his father's study.

"There you are." The red-haired girl said when she saw his husband.

"What do you want Saaya?" Ikuto asked her.

"Ano... I want to tell you something." Saaya told him.

"What?" Ikuto asked in annoyance. He rose his voice.

"CAN'T YOU BE NICE TO ME FOR A DAY? I'M CARRYING YOUR CHILD, DAMN IT!" Saaya shouted.

The hell? Ikuto thought.

"What are you talking about?" Ikuto asked him, he had lowered his voice now.

"I'm trying to tell you that I'm pregnant! Damn it Ikuto, I'm pregnant with your child! Treat me better!" Saaya replied the man and she left him.

Ikuto was stunned, he stood there for a minute while he registered what Saaya had told him. She said that she carried his child, it means that she is pregnant, with his child. He was going to be a father. But he coulnd't remember when he and Saaya do 'it'.

He was happy, he couldn't deny it. Even though the baby was Saaya's and not Amu's. He was happy because he was going to be a father. He never imagined himself as a father or parents. He was the great Tsukiyomi Ikuto by the way, he even never portrayed himself to marry and tie himself to a certain girl.

But then, if Saaya was pregnant with his child it would be hard for him to leave her. He couldn't divorce her and explained everything to the pink-haired girl. He would be tied to the red-head girl because of the child. Even though he hated Saaya, he couldn't hate the child that grew inside her womb. He/she was part of him and Ikuto definitely wouldn't let his child to be fatherless. That just mean one thing: forgetting about his happiness with Amu...

Hinamori Amu had just woken up from her sleep. She still had the smile since last night. She was happy because of the dinner and the roses. They were perfect. She liked the blond-haired man but not love. She liked him as her best friend and big brother. She was happy because she wished she had a big brother since she was a little child but now she felt like she had a big brother that care for her.

She told herself not to fall in love with men anymore, she also tolf herself not to trust people so easily – especially boys. But Aoi was different, she loved her as her big brother. Nothing more. Aoi was her dreamed for big brother and she loved his companion.

She walked to her bathroom and took a quick shower before heading towards the dining room, where her lovely breakfast had been waiting for her.

Kyoto, Japan.

"Boss, Kiryu-sama was killed last night." A voice spoke.

"How come? He was one of the best in our gang. Who did it?" A low voice hissed.

"We don't know who the culprit is, and Kiryu-sama was shot in his head and hand. Also he had some bruises over his body." the voice answered the boss.

"His bodyguards?" the boss asked again.

"All died, no exception." The voice answere again.

"I see, you're dismissed." The boss spoke.

Wait for my revenge. How dare someone killed my right-hand man inside his house?! The boss thought as he picked up his phone and dialed a number.

Tsukiyomi mansion

The Tsukiyomi were having breakfast together today with an additional member, Souma Kukai. They all ate in silence when a certain red-haired girl decided to broke it.

"Mom, Dad. I'm pregnant!" she exclaimed happily.

All the Tsukiyomi members, including Kukai – all except Ikuto who had predicted that his wife would tell his family soon – choked when the red-haired girl shouted out the news.

"Really? Congrats Ikuto, Saaya." Souko said.

"Congrats Ikuto, Saaya." Aruto said.

"Congrats." Utau and Kukai said in unison.

Saaya nodded her head in exciment while Ikuto kept eating his breakfast. Souko was happy, she was going to be a grandmother. She just can't wait for the baby to be born and call her grandmother.

"Aoi, how is Tokyo?" a low voice asked him

"It's great Father." Aoi told his father.

"I heard Kiryu was murdered. Be careful, if they knew about him there's no doubt that they also know about you and me." Claire told his only son.

"Of course, I will Father." Aoi replied as he hung up the phone and walked towards the garage before hopping into his car and driving off.

Aoi was frustasted, Kiryu had been killed last night and they didn't know who the hell had done that. They had worked smoothly, leaving his father and him clueless. Of course they knew that it was another gang's work but who?! Japan had countless gangs and they couldn't track them.

Damn, he cursed. He drove to his office and let himself slid into his personal office. Amu wasn't there. It wasn't America, if he was in America he was sure that the pinkette would notice about his bad mood and would cheer him up.

He loved this girl, even though his father hadn't met her he was sure that his father would like her and accept her. He was preparing to ask this girl to become his girlfriend before he propose to her. The pinkette's smile flashed inside his mind as he slowly turned calm. He glanced at his watch before turning on his computer and doing his job. He had things to take care of and he had lunch with his beloved pinkette this afternoon.

Tsukiyomi mansion, Tsukiyomi Ikuto's room...

Ikuto's POV

I was happy because I would become a father but something strange had happened. I didn't remember doing 'it' with Saaya. Even though I had been drunk countless time, I had always ended up sleeping in the guest room instead of my room. So, where did the baby come from? I wasn't stupid. I knew that the ovary needed sperm and bla bla bla before it turned into baby and grew inside the mother's womb.

I'd never done it with her. I had done it, yes, but it had been with another woman a long time ago before I had known her and of course before I had known the pink-haired girl. I had experienced some sexual frustation when I had seen Amu, dressed in the stunning dress when Mother had been holding the masquerade party a few months ago.

Amu. That name could affect me more than I'd ever thought before. Just like when I'd seen her for the first time in the mall with his sister and when I'd seen her yesterday, I could feel that there were joy and happy and love whenever I saw her and I would turn my head towards someone that say a word : Amu.

God, why did I choose to marry Saaya instead of Amu? I regretted my choice. If I had married her a month ago, maybe I could've screamed out of joy when she told me that she was pregnant with my child. I would be happy when she smiled at me, not throwing cold shoulders over me just like now or when she told me that she loved me...

But, everything was too late. I couldn't change it anymore. Amu had moved on and found herself another guy that loved her. Even though that boy was Takahashi Aoi, I could see that the blond was in love with the pinkette and she seemed to enjoy it much.

That was another reason why I regretted not marrying her. If I'd known that Amu would find another gangster man, I would've married her that moment. But, I'd thought that Amu could find another man that wasn't involve in the underworld.

Sometimes reality was painful, if I'd known.. If I'd known, I would've never let Amu go. I would cherish her and I would be proud to introduce her as my wife. Mine! Amu was destined to be my wife, not for another man but me! But, I'd taken a wrong step and I regretted it much.
