Chap 1: A Love Betrayed
 
 
“Are you ready?” Taka Sukunami asked his wife Miaka. Miaka nodded and smiled, Taka took her by the waist and guided her towards their car. She was looking magnificent tonight in a slinky black dress with her hair tied up in a chignon with a few locks hanging from the side of her face. She wore a pearl necklace with matching earrings, Taka's gift to her for her birthday. “You look splendid tonight my lady,” he commented while bowing and opening the door for her. Miaka giggled and took his hand, lightly squeezing it.
 
“I don't think I want to go Taka,” Miaka began, “I'm such a klutz, I'll make a fool of myself!” she continued.
 
“But you have to go my love, how else can I show off my lovely wife to everyone else?” he asked, grinning. “And besides, I'll make it worth your while if you come…” he said suggestively. Miaka couldn't help but give in, who could resist charm like that?
 
When they arrived at the function, Miaka couldn't help but stare in awe at the splendor of the hall, marble flooring with a picturesque ceiling of the sky, Italian chandeliers graced the ceilings and gave a warm feel to the room. Miaka came back to Earth when they were greeted by Taka's boss, Karin,
 
Next to her, I look like a downright disgrace! Thought Miaka, for Taka's boss truly did look most magnificent in a black evening gown with a v-shaped neckline that hugged every curve of her body and exposed the tiniest bit of cleavage. Adorned with a giant pink diamond rose shaped necklace and diamond earrings. Her blond hair was loose around her shoulders accenting her sharp jaw line. She was only in her mid-twenties and she was running a business empire!
 
“Glad you could make it Taka!” she exclaimed and turned to look at Miaka, “and whose this marvelous lady? “She asked.
 
“Oh, this is my wife Miaka,” we shook hands and I noticed a pink quartz ring on her finger, the same one that I nagged Taka into buying for me at the jewelers last time.
 
“Pleasure to meet you Mrs. Sukunami,” she said, “I've heard quite a lot about you, you know! Taka just keeps going on and on about you at the office!” she continued, I turned to look at Taka who was blushing, “well, enjoy the wine and food; I need to have a word with Taka.” I heard them say something about a business proposal and they disappeared among the crowd.
 
I might as well eat something till they get back. I thought.
 
An hour then two, then three passed with no signs of Taka yet. She decided to go powder her nose in the ladies'. As she was about to enter the ladies' she heard Taka's muffled voice from a room next door,
 
My nose can wait, I wonder what's up? She decided to investigate, she slowly opened the door and what she saw made her breath stop. There was Taka his hands wrapped around Karin's waist. Her hands in his hair their mouths pressed together in a passionate kiss, Miaka's legs began to tremble as tears flooded her eyes. She stared at them for what felt like ages when finally they pulled away. Karin turned and saw Miaka in the doorway, her expression suddenly flustered,
 
“Uh, this isn't what it looks like!” she said, trying to explain herself when Miaka felt herself advance forward placing a sharp slap on Taka's cheek,
 
“You! I trusted you! I thought what we had was special! Our love surpassed different dimensions and time! And here I find you with… with this girl…” she spat out that last word with disgust, she looked at her ring finger, her engagement ring, she looked at it, disgusted, twisting it off her finger, she threw it on the ground: tears were now cascading freely down her cheek. She was about to place another slap when the room was filled with a bright red light and Karin vanished only to be replaced with Suzaku, there where Karin had been, he made a tutting sound and spoke,
 
“I knew this was a bad idea right from the start,” he started. They both looked at him looked at him in awe. “A priestess and her warrior were never meant to be together… but I thought that you,” he paused to look at us, “had something special…” he stood up and advanced towards Miaka, tears streaming down her cheeks. He wiped the moisture from her cheeks, and narrowed his eyes at Taka. “As a God of Love, it is a duty of mine to protect my priestess from getting a broken heart… and apparently, I failed…” his voice trailing off…
 
“But I shall replace my mistake by taking away Miaka from you!” his voice rose. “I will transport her to Konan, hopefully to find happiness and true love there. Come now Miaka, let us leave this imbecile!” and then everything faded away, the last thing she heard was a faint cry from Taka.
 
………………………&# 8230;………………………… …………………………̷ 0;………………………… 230;…………………………& #8230;….
 
“And I pray for her safety and happiness, wherever she may be.” Tasuki ended his prayer to Suzaku. If only I was happy… he thought miserably. Only dear, sweet Miaka can make me happy… He closed his eyes and made a small wish, he did this every night since Miaka left three years ago. Opening one eye, he thought that maybe Miaka would miraculously appear next to him. Sighing, when nothing happened.
 
“Well, there's always tomorrow…” he said. Just as he was about to leave Suzaku temple, he heard a faint muffled sniff, he went to investigate and to his (and Miaka's) utter surprise they were now face to face with each other. Tasuki's amber eyes widened with joy while silently thanking Suzaku for finally granting his wish. Miaka suddenly thrust her hands up to Tasuki's neck and embraced him in a tight hug.
 
“Oh Tasuki!” she sobbed, Tasuki comforted her while stroking her back and telling her that everything's fine. The feel of Miaka's tiny curvaceous body against his sent shivers cascading down his back. Smelling the scent of her sweet hair, feeling her delicate skin. Oh, how he longed to do this.
 
“Now, now Miaka” said Tasuki, “stop crying or you'll wake up the whole of Konan!” he joked. Miaka stifled a giggle, still clutching onto Tasuki's neck.
 
Miaka pulled away to face Tasuki and he gave her a fanged grin, his flaming red hair; she noticed was wilder than ever, he was wearing a choker with the necklace she made for him. She hooked her finger on the necklace and felt him tense up and quickly let go. His ears were still adorned with earrings and she could see (but mostly feel) that he was more muscled now than before. She could feel his taut chest as she embraced him.
 
“Thank you Tasuki,” began Miaka, “For being there when I needed a shoulder to cry on,” she continued. She smiled a bit and this made Tasuki feel warm inside.
 
“Now let's get you cleaned up and into bed Mi-chan, we'll talk about this in the morning, I'm sure everyone would love to see you again!” He gave her a wide grin, planting a small kiss on her forehead.
 
“Uh… sorry…” his voice trailed off,
 
“It's okay, I liked that,” said the priestess happily,
 
“Really?! But what about Tama?” his expression gone from happy to sad,
 
“Never mind him…” she said, “I don't think…” her voice trailed off, leaving a sentence in mid-air,
 
“Okay then, c'mon lets go,” she clung on his arm and followed him.
 
Why is he being so nice to me? Thought Miaka, unlike Taka, he actually cares! She thought about this as she was clinging onto Tasuki's arm, looking down, not noticing Tasuki has just gone as red as his hair. After cleaning herself up, she accidentally let a yawn pass through her lips, and the next thing she knew, she was lifted off the ground in Tasuki's strong arms.
 
“How do you do it Miaka?”
 
“Do what?” she mumbled shyly as her hands lay on his chest, feeling his steady heartbeat,
 
“Eat like a glutton and yet stay light as a feather!” he chuckled, not noticing Miaka's flushed cheeks.
 
Tasuki carried her all the way to his room and laid her down gently on his bed,
 
“Now, you can sleep in my room till we get you one fixed up, alright?” he said, adding a fanged grin. He placed the blanket up to her chin and put his finger to her lips as she was about to say something. “Shh, sleep now.”
 
He was done tucking her up when he felt Miaka grab hold of his wrist,
 
“But where will you sleep?” she asked, “I don't want you to go, stay here with me Tasuki…” she looked up at him with her solemn hazel eyes.
 
“Don't worry, just holler when you need me, alright Mi-chan!” he said, “We don't want people to start talking when they find you and me in the same room now do we!” he added and noticed that Miaka blushed. She nodded at him and let his wrist go as she drifted to a sound sleep.
 
“Good night my sweet…” he added before slowly closing the door behind him.
 
TBC…. (maybe)
