Alrightnso I've re edited this chapter for some reason it was combining the bottom parts into one paragraphs I really don't know why but here you go
I do not own Shugo Chara! Only the characters I create.
3:20 a.m.
Darkness consumed the large room; the door to the entry way slowly opens –quietly- as it allows the light from the outside to slip into the darken condo. At the entrances stood a silhouette of a woman quietly as she could that woman made her way inside, softly closing the door behind her. The woman sits down on the entry way floor to remove her pumps to only replace them with a pair of slippers; placing her pumps on the shoe rack. Walking down the hallway the woman makes her way to the living room. Just as she's about to reach the light switch of the room –an arm snakes around her waist as the other covers her mouth. "Your brother is starting to steal you away from me more than usual, love." A male voice spoke out from behind the woman; softly whispering it into her ear in a low husky voice –pulling her closer towards his body. The woman knew that voice anywhere; as the male felt her body relax against his he removes his hand from her mouth. Lightly gasping for air, a smirk danced its way onto the woman's lips.
"Don't tell me you're jealous of my brother –Kukai." She said with a purr in her tone; flipping the light switch on Kukai took the chance to spin her around in his arms to have her facing him just as the lights brighten up the room.
"And if I am what of it?" He asked with a cheeky grin diving in to bite her bottom lip gaining a giggle from her. Violet color eyes looked up to emerald green; neither one dared to break eye contact –until Kukai quickly took hold of her chin and brought her face closer towards his capturing her lips with his. Catching her completely by surprise making her blink a few times to register what was going on; Kukai simply looked at her as he continued to kiss her. When he finally pulled back he flashes her, his infamous cheeky grin. "I win."
"You're such a cheater!" The woman said as she pushed him away with a glare on her eyes. She walked away heading into the kitchen.
"Hahahaha oh! Come on Utau, don't be like that~" Laughing Kukai chased after the blonde into the kitchen. She was looking through there fridge seeing what there was to eat. Just as she was pulling away from the fridge with a small cup of yogurt in her hand Kukai whisked her off her feet and draped her over his shoulder.
"KUKAI! Put me down!" She yelled at him as she tried to push herself up; with her yogurt long forgotten on the kitchen floor. Kukai walked out of the kitchen and back into the living room.
"I won't put you down until you call uncle." He said with a smile placed upon his lips.
"Okay, okay uncle, uncle!" She quickly gave in not wanting to fight so late into the night. Without warning Kukai dropped her onto the sofa. Before Utau could even think about getting up Kukai was already on top of her pinning her down and giving her a zero percent chance of escaping. Kukai leaned in closer; he touched his mouth to hers. Just a light, enticing brush, scarcely a kiss. Just enough to let her know how thrilling a longer, deeper kiss would be. Shiver of excitement ran through Utau's body but she pulled back slightly and gazed at him. "Wait…" She said slightly breathless.
No, I can't wait." He said as he died in for another kiss only instead of his lips meeting hers they met with her cheek.
"It's important Kukai." She said in a frustrated look the light kiss had left him pretty damned frustrated. The brunette let out a frustrated sigh but he didn't pull away.
"What's so important that you're having me stop?"
"I invited Ikuto to the party." Utau pulled herself up into a sitting position never breaking eye contact with her beloved. "And he agreed." Kukai's eyes widen.
"He agreed? But why? He always never agrees." Utau bites the inside of her cheek as she quickly shifted her gaze.
"Well…I might have mentioned that Amu was going to be there."
"You know she's not."
"Actually, she will be this time," Kukai raised an eyebrow. "Because Isuka Senatami is going to be present at the party."
"If he's going to be there then that mean's her Beta isn't planning on showing her face there." Utau nodded. Kukai analyzes the scenario in his head when a grin started to slowly dance its way onto his lips.
"Well this is starting to shape up into a pretty entertaining party."
Le Désir d'un Loup
-Knock, knock-
"What is it Lin?" The auburn curly hair women gave out a frustrated sigh as the door to the large room opens. A petite young woman stood there; she looked confident, and strong. She sight smaller than the curly headed woman sitting in front of her, short jet black hair, cobalt blue eyes with frameless glasses.
"I'm sorry to interrupt you Ms. Yamabuki but, there's someone here to see you." Lin said as she lightly bows in apology.
"Tell them I'm in a meeting, I won't be meeting with anyone today." Saaya said as she waved Lin away, but Lin didn't make a move to leave she took there as she blankly stared at her employer.
"…Ms. Yamabuki, it's Ms. Goldschmidt…" Upon hearing that name fall from Lin's mouth Saaya froze in place, not believing that the women was actually here.
"Tsk, tsk…Honestly, just how long are you planning on making me wait you stupid bitch." A voice laced with hate spoke out from behind Lin; the petite secretary moved aside as the women slowly made her way into the room, just as she was standing in Saaya's line of vision the women waved Lin away and without hesitation she hurriedly left the room. The woman stood at 5'6, an hour-glass silhouette, long well-formed legs, perfect round breast; she was breath taking. Dressed in a black sleeveless round neck T-shirt loosely tucked into dark gray skinny jeans with a 7" zipper on the outside side of the legs with black leather bootie heel –with silver buckles- Tying the whole outfit was a red/black checkered button up collar shirt that was tied around her waist. Her hair was tied up into a perfect messy bun; golden chain jewelry draped beautifully around her neck. "It seems like both you and your brother have been trying to avoid me." A smirk danced its way upon the woman's lips as she leaned against the door frame. Saaya let out a shaky sigh as she slowly stood up from her chair.
"Yumiko…it's good to see you." Saaya said with a forced smile draped upon her lips.
"Cut the crap Saaya, you and I know we hate each other." The woman –Yumiko- said with a roll of her eyes; pushing herself off the doorframe Yumiko gracefully walked across the room stopping right in front of the fidgeting auburn headed woman. "So let's cut to the chase here so I don't have to see your ugly ass face any more than I have to."
"Right…What is it that you want to know."
"Either you're really stupid of something, what do you think I'm here for you dumb bitch. Just what did I tell you to do?" Saaya bites down on her tongue –hard enough that she drew blood.
"Ah…Yes, of course I'm sorry," Saaya cleared her throat trying to regain her composure. "I've collected about twelve dozen, would you wish I gathered more?" Yumiko thought over the number as she leans against the back of chair.
"Grab twelve dozen more, the same goes for Tadase."
"Ah…" Saaya quickly opens her mouth to mouth allowing her a word to escape her lips. Yumiko's eyes sharply gaze straight into the auburn headed woman as she raised an eyebrow, daring her to question her or even deny her the order she just gave her. Saaya slightly flinched back biting back her words as her eyes dropped down to her desk that was covered with papers.
"No it's was nothing….Will you need anything else from me?" Saaya asked as continued to look down at her desk; an 'hmm' could be heard from where Yumiko was stand.
"No," Yumiko slowly closed her eyes as she pushed herself away from the chair. "That's it…for now." In a Nano second Yumiko was at the door with her back facing Saaya. "As much I would love to say 'I hope to not see you any time soon' It seems we have to attend a party for the heir of the Soma family." With those parting words Yumiko left Saaya's office. All at once Saaya's energy left her body as her body dropped down onto her chair; letting out a heavy sigh, as she ran a hand through her curly auburn hair in frustration. Minutes passed before Saaya finally pulled out her cell phone and quickly dialed a number; the phone only rang for about three rings until the other person on the other side answered the phone.
"We need to talk."
Le Désir d'un Loup
The sun was rising from the horizon slightly tinting the sky with its rays of warmth; the air around NightHaven was clean and fresh from the forest surrounding the "house". Light fog still lingered around the grounds of NightHaven, but animals of the forest were already up and about doing their daily routines. While in the "house" that lays at the center of the land was silent showing no life in its walls. The pink headed Alpha had just fallen into a deep slumber not too long ago, her mind was too over filled with thoughts about everything that was going on since she and Angel had move out here. She lies on her bed peacefully under her covers slightly curled into a ball as she sleeps on her side, her face facing the wall.
As the sun was rising higher into the sky, the first to wake from the household was Angel. Like always Angel followed through with her daily routine since coming to this house; quickly taking a shower and changing. Once everything was done she walked out of her room and made her way towards Amu's room; when reaching the room Angel softly knocked on her door.
"Knock, knock-
"Amu…wake up," there was no response. Just as Angel was about to open the door she stopped midway when she heard a door slightly open from down the hall. Giving a sideways glance Angel saw that it was Musashi; without taking her hand off the door knob Angel turns to face the male wolf.
"Good morning." Musashi was the first to speak as he gave a small bow towards Angel.
"Good morning Musashi," Angel said with a soft smile. "I take it you had a well nights rest." The male wolf smiled and nodded.
"Yes, I did," He replied and then looked towards the door Angel was about to go in. "Though I would not say the same thing about our Alpha." Angel raised an eyebrow at the sudden comment.
"What do you mean?"
"I stumbled upon Amu around two hours ago," he said to the female Beta. "I was just heading to the kitchen to fetch a glass of water then I saw the lights of the living room on. I went to go see who it was and found her there sitting on the couch with files and document scattered in front of her in the coffee table." Angel's lips formed into a tight line as she listened to Musashi's story; heaving out a sigh of frustration Angel dropped her hand that was holding onto the doorknob back to her side.
"Thank you Musashi for tell me this, I'll let Amu rest up longer since she just drifted into sleep I would assume." Musashi nodded as he walked his way towards the kitchen. Once he was out of sight Angel pitched the bridge of her nose as she slightly shook her head in disprovable.
"I swear this girl will be the death of me." Angel muttered as she walked away from her Alpha's door. Angel made her way towards her study room to look over today's schedule. As she took a seat behind her desk Angel turned on her computer screen and logged into her email, while that was loading she looked over today's agenda. Just as her eyes were about to read the last event of the day, she glanced back at the computer screen to see her she was logged in. Her eyes landed on the two and only email's she had displayed –unread-. Email's from two men she never want to see or even hear about ever again. "Clayton Smith and Isuka Senatami…." Angel was about to delete the messages from the two males when a certain word caught her eye –Tonight-. It was from Isuka's email. Without hesitation Angel opened the email and looked over the contact.
My dearest Angel,
How long has it been since we last communicated with one another; far too long I have to say
Angel I miss you, I can never get you out of my thought and when I close my eyes all I see is your smiling figure. My heart aches to see you; my body aches to touch you.
But this burning desire will finally end tonight when I finally set my eyes upon you on tonight's party.
Until tonight my love.
Isuka S.
Angel's eyes open widen, tonight? Party? Angel thought as she was running all the words through her head. Finally it clicked in her head; wiping her head back towards the schedule that laid on her desk her eyes quickly scanned over the page all the way to the night's event, and sure enough there in her handwriting was tonight's party that Isuka had typed in his email. Angel's eyes widen once again in shock as her body fell back onto the back of the chair and her fingers racked through her hair in panic. "H-how? How could I have forgotten to look over such a simply little detail like this?" As Angel was looming over what was unfolding before her she did not notice that her door was being opening.
"I see that you found out who will be attending tonight's party." A soft yet firm voice spoke from the entrance of the door. Angels head darted up to face the open door to see her close and dear pink headed friend standing there with a calm expressionless face.
"When did you find out?"
"Just an hour or so before I fell asleep." The pinkette answered as she made her way further into the office. "I knew you were going to get like this, that's why I had decided I was not going to tell you and go to the party myself instead of sending you." Angel was about to open her mouth but before her even uttered a word Amu raised a hand stopping her.
"No this is something that we will not discuss about I've decided I will go, you will be staying here," Angel gave her a pained look as she looked at her, upon seeing it Amu's face slightly soften. "Do not worry, I will not be going alone, Naomi will be going with me. She might be young but the young she-wolf needs so exposure to this world if she is to be the next Gamma of our pack." Angel stared long at the pinkette until finally she resigned and nodded her head reluctantly agreeing with the future Alpha.
"I don't like that fact of not being by your side on something as important as this, but I will do as you tell me to do."
"Thank you," Amu said with a small smiled. "I'm sure by now everyone is up and about, so let's head to the dining and eat with everyone." Angel returned the smile and nodded her head; turning off the computer screen and stood up to walk beside Amu to head to the dining room. It took them less than a minute to reach the dining and already the two friends could hear their rather over energetic pack mates; Angel opens the doors to the room but the chit chatter continued. Amu walked towards the head of the table with Angel walking towards her right side; Naomi was already standing on Amu's left side. As Amu reached her seat she cleared her throat grabbing everyone's attention –silence filled the room as all the wolves gave there undivided attention to their future Alpha.
"Good morning my fellow pack mates, I hope you all slept well." Amu said as she received smiles from her pack-mates. "Today will be rather eventful for you all. I have arranged for equipment's to be sent over from the pack house, for all of you to keep up with your training; however that will not be arriving until later in the day I hope. For now I would want you all to spare, I'm quite sure you all have been taught very well by our current Beta –Haru Moon- but I wish for you all to spare against Angel here. I want you all to learn how each of your pack mates fighting style."
"あなたはそれ王女, それが行われますように" They all responded bring a small smile up on Amu's lips.
"Well then without further delay let's enjoy this delicious food you've all prepared this morning."
Le Désir d'un Loup
"Amu you've been in here since breakfast finished, just how long are you planning to be in here?" Angel asked as she walked into Amu's study room; papers were scattered all over her desk and the coffee table. "Just what are you doing?"
"I have to send a detail report on everything that has happen here to my father by today." Amu said as her eyes were looking over documents over documents, looking over each word.
"Why didn't you tell me I could have done that for you?" Amu shook her head, but never lifted her gaze off the paper
"No I have to do this one I've already started on it last night after the others got back from their run." That's when it clicked in Angel's mind; the reason why Amu had slept so late. "Besides I just finished." Amu said with a smiled as she finished typing up the last thing on the word document; Amu let out a deep sigh as she relaxed against her chair. When the pinkette's head laid on the head rest of the chair her eyelids slowly closed and she drifted into a deep sleep. Angel let out a soft chuckle as she saw her close friend –who she consider a sister- fall asleep right in front of her eyes. Walking over towards the pinkette's desk Angel peered into the computer screen and looked over the word document of the report the pinkette was going to send to their Alpha. Once she looked it over and fix very slight errors Angel took the liberty of sending the document to Tsumugu via email. Once she finished sending that Angel then continued on with picking up all the scattered paper's Amu had all over her desk and coffee table; as Angel was cleaning up in Amu's study room she did not notice that there was a knock coming from the front door. A dark pink head she-wolf was walking by the door when she heard someone knock.
"I got it!" She said with a cheerful voice; opening the door she revealed a blonde man standing there with a bright smile plastered on his lips.
"Hello, I'm here to see Angel Moon." Ran tilted her head as she was trying to recall the man standing in front of her.
"Oh! Your Mr. Amakawa the informer!" Ran said with excitement as she allowed him to come into the house; Tsukasa smiled as he sees the over energetic she-wolf speak.
"Yes, that's right. Is your Beta here?" Ran tilted her head again thinking over the question Tsukasa just asked her and then smiled at him with a nod.
"Yeah, she'll be coming in a minute right now she's just finishing talking with our Alpha."
"Was…talking with our Alpha." Spoke out a voice from behind the two; turning their heads towards the source of the voice they see the Heir to the Moon family walking gracefully from the hallway; when she was finally standing in front of both living being, Ran took this as a sign to leave the two alone, and she carried on with her day. "Hello Tsukasa it's nice to see you again."
"It's always a pleasure to see you my dear Beta." The two smiled at each.
"So tell me Tsukasa what brings you here to our humble home?" Angel asked as she singled him to follow her towards the hallway.
"I've come to personally bring you the information our dear pinkette has asked for about the rogues that are residing in this town and how far words has spread out to other rogues."
"I was just about to call you about that it has been a few days now since Amu asked you for that." Angel said as the two reached her door; opening the door the two walked into the room and continued their conversation in there.
Ten minutes passed as another car drives through the gates of NightHaven, a dark gray SOUL KIA, when the driver was but seconds away from the house the driver spotted another car parked in front of the mansion. "Looks liked someone else is here…" The driver parked alongside the other car; climbing out of the car he casually ascended up the few steps and knocked on the front wooden door. It did not take for someone to open the door; the door opened to reveal a male with long violet hair that reaches to his waist with matching eyes. He was wearing a baby blue beanie, long-sleeved shirt, blue vest, and jeans; a pair of indigo blue shoes with white soles, around his neck, he had a pair of blue-black headphones.
"Um…Hi I'm Tsukiyomi Ikuto, from 'Star-Cross' Magazine, I'm here to see Ms. Hinamori Amu." Ikuto said as he looked at the man standing in front of him.
"Heh, yeah I know who you are Tsukiyomi, I'm Rhythm Beat," The violet haired man –Rhythm- said with a smiled as he extended his hand out towards Ikuto. "It's nice to meet'cha." Ikuto smiled towards the young wolf as he took his hand and shook it.
"It's nice to meet you too," Ikuto said as Rhythm leads him inside of the house; as Rhythm was closing the Ikuto turn to look around the entrance just in case the caught sight of pink. "Is Ms. Hinamori available at the moment?" Ikuto asked as his heart slightly sped up at the anticipation to the answer to his question.
"Hm…" Rhythm thought over if neither his Beta, Gamma, nor even his Alpha gave him and his other pack-mates orders as to not let the human pass, but he recalls none. "I don't believe so Angel was with her a while ago but she is currently attending another guest that came in a few minutes back." Rhythm explained to the bluenette, bring joy to his ears, the bluenette let out a breath he did not know he was holding in.
"If I am correct Amu should be in her study room at the moment," Rhythm said as he looks Ikuto straight in the eyes. However, Ikuto's eyes didn't waver instead his eyes seem to have sharped the second Rhythm's eyes landed on his causing the young wolf's eyes to quickly look away from him. "I can lead you where she is if you'd like." Rhythm offered as he questioned himself why would he dropped his gaze from a human male that was lower in dominance then he was but shook it thinking it must have been his mind playing tricks on him.
"No it's alright I know my way there I don't want to bother you anymore then I have already." Ikuto said as he moved his body towards the direction of Amu's study room. Rhythm waved goodbye as he watch the bluenette walking down the hallway towards his Alpha's study room, until he saw it further away did the male wolf decided to walk away and go about the rest of his day.
As Ikuto was walking down the hall he was looking over what went on just a few seconds ago with Rhythm when he made direct eye contact with him. It was strange, just as his eyes looked straight into mine, I felt a pull in me that didn't like the fact he was doing that, Ikuto thought. Just as he was pondering over the thought he noticed that he had stopped moving and was already in front of Amu's door. Ikuto let out sigh as he shook his head on the thought; It was probably nothing I shouldn't pay attention to it, Ikuto thought as he grabbed onto the door knob and lightly knocked on the door before twisting the door knob open to reveal the inside of the room. There was no response from the other side of the door, so Ikuto slowly opened the door and he slightly peeked his head inside. The bluenette was greeted with a silent room the pinkette sitting on her chair –with her head back against the head rest and her eyes peacefully closed. Ikuto fully entered the room as he stared at the sleeping pink headed Alpha; a small smile started to form on the reporter's lips as he continued to stare into the she-wolf's sleeping face. Letting out a small sigh as he shook his head at the status the pinkette left herself in. Ikuto let himself into the room –closing the door behind him- he placed his things on top if the coffee table as he walked over to the sleeping Alpha she-wolf. "She looks so vulnerable." Ikuto said in a low voice so not to disturb the sleeping female.
Just who are you calling vulnerable, Amu said in her mind. The pinkette's eyes were still closed and her breath was even however, her mind on the other hand was half awake and was able to catch some words the bluenette reporter was saying towards her sleeping body. The suddenly Amu felt like her body was floating in space.
Huh? Was the first thing that ran through Amu's mind as she felt her body air born. Two strong arms were holding her body, she knew that much. Her cheek was up against Ikuto's warm chest allowing her to be able to hear his heart beating inside his chest. I'm being carried in his arms… Encompassed in the safety of his arms Amu fell into a complete dream-like state; feeling so safe and right in his strong embrace.
"…Amu, I'm going to lay you down on the couch." Ikuto said in a soft lullaby tone.
"Uh." Was the only response the bluenette got out of the pinkette. She was aware of Ikuto's voice once again.
"Here we go…" You could hear the leather of the couch cringle from the sudden pressure. Ikuto turn to look around the room to see if there was a blanket or something for him to cover the sleeping pinkette with; out of the corner of his eye he saw just what he was looking for. Walking over towards it he grabbed it and then wrapped her body up with it; softly smiling down at the pinkette Ikuto brushed a hair strand away from her peaceful face.
"I'm going to be leaving now okay," He said as he was still looking down upon her sleeping features. "…Ah, you can't hear me anyways."
No, I can hear you, Amu said as he tried to response back to Ikuto only for her words to echo throughout her mind instead of slipping through her perfect lips. I want to get up and thank him. Amu was aware of something in the distance and came back to herself slightly. Her eyes were still closed and she was just about to open them when she felt something soft upon her lips.
Ah, Amu had no idea what had just happened, her eyes flashed opened and there was Ikuto's face. Pressing his soft warm lips against mine; silence surrounded them as Amu's mind tried to register what was happening at that very second. I-Is he kissing me? She asked herself. As she was running it through her mind her heart started to race. Ikuto pressed his lips more against hers, he puckered his lips. Which only brought more shock towards the female Alpha, there was a kissing sound and her body felt like it was burning hot. It wasn't some kind of joke, it was a kiss; Amu could sense Ikuto's true feelings through his lips.
…W-What should I do? Amu asked herself, Ikuto was not aware that she was awake. Finally as if she had resolved her turmoil that was raging through her mind the pinkette kissed him back with her eyes still closed. Her heart felt like it was going to burst out of her rib cage her body was burning from head to toes. I have to say something, she thought but in truth she did not want this kiss to end. Their lips continued to press against each other. For the first time in her life Amu's mind went completely blank, she couldn't think. She could not say anything, she could not move, all she could do was lie there with her eyes closed and be kissed by him. Ikuto gently pulled his lips away from Amu's and looked at her, slowly his eyelids opened. Silence over took the room as the two were nose to nose they looked right into each other's eyes. It was impossible to utter even a single word but as if to break the silence Ikuto's entire face went a bright shade of red. Shocked Ikuto pulled away as fast as a lightning bolt.
"Ah…I'm…It's just…It's not what you think!" He struggled to find the words to say towards the pinkette so he dashed out of the study without missing to quickly grab his things in tow. Amu was left alone in the silent room, she could still feel his warmth on her lips, and she ran her fingers across them. She allowed herself to sit up on the edge of the couch, stunned.
