He"s really persistence; this isn"t like him at all. "This is you we are talking about. Of course, I am going to be curious, so what are you hiding from me, my dear wife?"Aaah, geez when he is like this, she can"t say anything.
"That stubborn att.i.tude of yours is irritating. But I do believe I am coming to like it. It"s even kind of cute sometimes," Haruka said. He had altered their position and had pushed her down on to the bed. His arms wrapped around her tightly from behind. And she already thought that the previous position was rather embarra.s.sing considering how she was dressed in her nightgown. Let alone this, this one would be misunderstood !!
"W--what do you think you are doing?"
"Hugging my wife."
Usually, she wouldn"t mind him hugging her. Haruka is really n.o.ble and loyal when it comes to the woman he loves; he never once touched her in a manner she did not wish. Nor did he force himself upon her. He would only hug her, plant a few kisses on her cheek and forehead and do nothing more than that.
He"s pretty n.o.ble. But, this sort of situation really is...
"Oh, I am not fooling around. Aren"t I always dead serious?"
Yes, he is, and that"s exactly why! No, wait, him? Serious? Him of all people?
Lila doesn"t hesitate to voice her thoughts on the matter, " ...!! T--that"s precisely the problem." Haruka can be a n.o.ble guy, and she understood his traits all too well. But she supposed it"s because of that, that she knows how this will end up. Once he got like this, she knew there was no escape for him until he was fully satisfied. She has little choice but to let him have his way.
His hug on her suddenly tightened, and she could feel his lips brush against the nape of her neck. Lila immediately felt there was something wrong with him; something is .. "Haruka?" Lila called out, "Are you okay?"
"I"m just thinking of the past."
"The past?" Lila repeated.
"Ever since I was young, I had always lived my life living the rules of the world. Living so I could survive. I didn"t think of anything else but that. From a very young age, I"ve always understood what my position was in life. It didn"t take me long to realize that the role they gave me was simply to support others and not stand in the spotlight.
Which is what I did, I studied desperately and constantly every day to ensure that I would not be a hindrance to anyone. That"s why I disliked those with powers. Because they were strong even without having to work for anything."
"Is that why you reject your hanyou blood so strongly?"
Lila nodded.
"I don"t think your the same as them, and I"ve seen with my own eyes how hard you have worked for everything. But other people are not the same. The reason why I agreed to ally myself with Zane is because his intentions are not bad; at least at the start, they were pure."
"His intentions?"
"When a group of powerful hanyou"s gather together, they are manipulated and used. All the progress they made as humans and controlling their blood l.u.s.t would vanish. They would turn into nothing more than beasts who l.u.s.t for power and revenge. All the progress, everything about them will be ripped away. I understand why others take such measures. But I did not accept it.
Zane is the same. He recruits people for their special abilities, but he does not viciously use them. We fight, but the people we are fighting are those who will harm the country. To him, all of the power users are just another type of weapon. But at least at his side, hanyous would not become monsters. Lila, to you the powers you have are to protect people, to save and protect the ones you care about. But some do not think that way. Some would stop at nothing to abuse your powers."
Haruka"s words stabbed at her painfully. She could hear how much hate they had. He dislikes hanyous and those with powers because of the harm it will bring others.
But his arms are gentle. They held her close softly, tenderly. "But after I met you, I changed my mind."
"Haruka."
"Zane"s wishes aside. Perhaps I went with him last year because I held the beliefs that he would do the right thing. That he would not abuse others. But it seems like I was wrong there," he trailed off, "In the end, I"m still a p.a.w.n that other people can use...."
Haruka"s sentence fell short, and Lila saw his eyelids drop. He should get some rest for now.

"What are you doing my dear wife?"
"Messing around," Lila mumbled as she climbed on top of him, Haruka smiled and drew her closer. A content sigh escaped his lips, and Lila reached over to caress his cheeks, "Why don"t you go back to sleep?"
"My wife was messing around, couldn"t miss this opportunity."
"I"m sorry for waking you."
"That"s okay; you satisfied me tonight. So, you can do what you want."
"Dummy, quit thinking about that all the time."
"Sorry, sorry."
Still, she has to admit that quite some time has pa.s.sed since they could relax like this. Usually, they are both so tired after working so hard during the day. "When are we going on our date?"
"When our schedules are free."
"That"s never."
Haruka smiled, "You want to go that badly?"
"Of course I do."
"I"ll make some time," he mumbled, "Don"t bother changing your schedule."
Lila nodded and bent down so she could kiss him, "Nngh...."
"Hey, if we don"t stop..."
Lila pulled away from him and wiped her mouth, "Haruka got into it."
"As did you," he traced her bottom lip with this thumb carefully, "I wonder why even now doing these things with you make me nervous."
Nervous? Him? Lila pouted, and Haruka simply smiled, "Don"t believe me?"
"Of course I wouldn"t," Lila sighed, "You"re always so confident, why would I believe you?"
"But, I"m nervous around you," Haruka repeated, "My dear wife, I love you so much. I know it is difficult to prove my actions with words alone. But, I want to tell you this more from now on."
"Tell me, will you show me too?"
His lips curve to a smile, "You want to kiss more?"
"I do damage my lips."
Haruka took that opportunity to slant his lips over hers and force her mouth open wider so that he could thrust his tongue inside and slide it against hers.
The shock of his actions made Lila release a soft whimper and in response, as Haruka quickly moved his tongue against hers. His actions were very sensual, and Lila felt herself growing increasingly embarra.s.sed. But she did not dare to pull away. It does feel nice.
Haruka always gives her such adult-like kisses.
But since its the two of them, their moments always tend to get interrupted. Sure enough, a bell-like sound appeared. Oh, the doorbell?
"d.a.m.n," Haruka cursed, "Who could be at the door now?"
"Um, shall I go get it?"
"No, I"ll go. You get dressed, you"ll catch a cold."
Lila nodded, indeed just wearing this plane nightgown was a bother.
.....
"I found her surrounded at the Fox night club, it was such a pain in the neck," Jae-hee sighed.
Lila looked over at the living room where Haruka was treating Aizawa Mei"s wounds. Such an unexpected guest, Lila sighed. How bothersome.
"And you brought her here why?"
"Take it easy," Jae-hee said, "I"m on your side when it comes to Haruka."
"Then, why did you bring her here?"
"Because your place is the closest and honestly, Haruka"s biasness towards you is causing a stir in the media. It"s reflecting badly on you as well. Some people are saying your bullying Aizawa Mei and causing Haruka to go against her."
Lila rolled her eyes. It really is the typical plan. "Your plan?"
"And so I brought her here. Some media were following the girl. Here the news report will show that there are no hard feelings between the respective parties."
"I see," Lila trailed off, "But you know Jae-hee, it"s not like they"ll stop trying to ruin me."
"You"ve really gotten on their bad side."
"More like they just want to continue where things left off before. My mother was targeted and hara.s.sed by the media to the point that her friend died protecting her."
"So, they are simply.."
"Destroy the Teras.h.i.+ma family. Who wouldn"t take the chance? The Austin and Teras.h.i.+ma family are leading figures in society; their power knows no bounds. Whether it"s the underworld or regular society, they have complete control," Lila sighed, "I"m already used to dealing with these things, so you don"t have to worry about it."
"But still, if you need help."
"I know, thank you Jae-hee," her sentence fell short when Haruka re-emerged.
"Babe, can she stay the night? I don"t think it"s safe to send her anywhere."
Lila"s gaze was cold, and Jae-hee patted her shoulders, "I"ll stay here tonight too."
She supposes it can"t be helped, "Okay."
"Thank you, babe," Haruka kissed her forehead, but Lila pulled on his arm, and Haruka bent down to kiss her lips. A deep and pa.s.sionate kiss. "Continue in the bedroom?"
"Mmmmahuh."
Jae-hee coughed, "You two have no shame whatsoever."
Lila, however, didn"t mind being shameless today, she wanted Aizawa to know how head over heels Haruka was for her. Sure enough, the girl was glancing over with a dark expression.
Haruka wrapped his arms around her waist; he seemed impatient after the kiss they shared.
..
Once they returned to the room, Lila pulled away from him. Haruka sighed, "Don"t be in a bad mood. This is just Jae-hee"s plan, right?"
"There are bad rumors about me again? That"s why you"re working too hard."
"Yeah," he took out a cigarette, "Of course what Jae-hee is doing is temporary. Everybody will judge what"s happening in the training center and in public events. I know you don"t want to, but you"ll have to work with her for a while. Now isn"t the time to get you in pointless scandals."
Pointless scandals? But this has to do with their relations.h.i.+p. "Do I have to smile in front of the media while you welcome your mistress into our home?"
"Lila."
"I understand her plan, but people will see it my way too. They will think I"m being tricked. If you want to prove yourself to me Haruka, don"t go near her anymore. Stop a.s.sociating yourself with anything related to her."
Haruka removed the cigarette and walked over to her. He wrapped his arms around her and held her tightly, "Lila, don"t be so scared."
"I"m afraid, that you"ll leave me. Once again, I..."
Once again, the person she loves the most will leave her. If that were to happen, then she will be truly alone again. The thing that scares her the most is not losing her career or even her voice, no - what scares her the most. What she has always been afraid of is losing those dear to her, not through an accident or illness.
But the person leaving willingly.
If somebody willingly leaves your side, and this happens more than one occasion, this means there is something wrong with you. She is probably acting unreasonably right now. Making such selfish sounding requests like this, showing such an ugly side of herself. But if she doesn"t act this way, if she doesn"t stand her ground, how can she keep Haruka by her side?
"Ssh," Haruka whispered, "That"s enough, I won"t leave you, Lila. I"ll never let you be alone again."
"Haruka.."
How does she trust him? Does she trust him just because she loves him? But she already did that once before with Kiryu, and yet he still left her in the end.
