“You’re what?” Kai demands before realising he’s staring and fixing his eyes firmly on my face. Well not so firmly, I can tell he’s peeking.

            “I’m proving I love you, that you’re the one I want.” I say without a trace of doubt in my voice.

            “You’re proving you’ll do anything to save Reita.” Kai accused.

            “I’m not!” I cry. I never thought Kai would take things this way, but I guess I am suggesting this. “You can have me anyway.” I decide. “Even if you don’t help.”

            “And Reita?” Kai asks.

            “We’ll have to think of a new plan,” I say. “Yoshiki’s punishment is too harsh.”

            “Maybe.” Kai admits. “But then you don’t know how he treats the people outside the castle.”

            “Yoshiki is wrong.” I declare firmly. “Doesn’t he realise he’s as bad as Reita?”

            “No. He’s punishing the guilty, not the innocent!” Kai argued and I sigh. We’re just not going to agree on this one.

            “Don’t you want me?” I ask deliberately laying on the guilt trip. The truth is now I’ve decided to sleep with Kai I want to sleep with him now. I don’t want to wait.

            “I want you. Of course I want you. I’m just worried because you obviously still have feelings for Reita.”

            “Of course I have feelings!” I declared. “I used to love him. Maybe I still do. But I’m also scared of him. Even knowing he’s in prison I fear he’s going to hurt me for being with you. He hurt me Kai. He hurt me so many times I’d be a masochist if I stayed with him and I’m not. I hate pain. I want to be in a relationship where I’m happy and I can only see that with you. I want to be yours Kai. Please. Don’t tell me you’ve changed your mind. That now I want you, you don’t want me anymore.”

            “I want you.” Kai whispered and with that he’s kissing me, but before I can even think of kissing back he pulls away. “Promise me one thing Ruki. Promise me that you’re not just using me.”

            “I’m not Kai. It’s like you said to me, help me and when I’m still here after my need for you is gone you know I truly love you.” I say, using his own words against him. I trusted him and now it’s his turn to trust me. For a moment I think he’s going to walk away but he doesn’t.

            “I trust you.” Kai decides. “You can have the pills too. I’m going to help you too. Somebody needs to protect you if Reita tries anything. But if we sleep together I want it to be because that is what you truly want and not because you want something from me.”

            “It’s what I want.” I assure him sealing the deal with a kiss.

            One kiss become two, and two becomes three, which follows to a fourth which seems to spread on for eternity. An eternity which isn’t long enough for either of us even though we both know it has to end so we can move onto even more pleasing things.

            As we kissed Kai’s clothes had fallen discarded to the floor and he was as exposed as I had been. He was so beautiful and he was going to be mine, at least for tonight.

            “You’re gorgeous.” I whisper as I kiss him sweetly on his lips.

            “And you deserve a chance to be in charge.” Kai announces and I watch as he lies on my bed waiting for me to use his body. I’ve never been in charge before but I’ve been in his position enough times to know how this should be done.

            I stand by my bed and trace my fingers across his back feeling the delicate, soft, perfect skin beneath my fingers. I kiss the top of his spine before moving onto his shoulder. Knowing he doesn’t expect it yet I slide my finger into him hoping my own saliva is enough to provide sufficient lubrication. His gasp is one of surprise and joy and I smile. He’s given me complete control of his body and I will reward his trust with love and kindness.

            At first my finger is simply exploring him. Learning the sounds I can make him make but his moans are so erotic to me I can feel my need growing. Carefully I slip in a second finger and seriously work on preparing him for my own entry. By the time I’ve finished I’m almost ready to take him.

            “Kai, I don’t want to take you dry.” I explain, knowing he’s not used to it as I am.

            “Oh sure.” Kai shrugs and to my surprise he pulls himself up and off the bed and kneels before me taking my erection in his mouth coating it with his own saliva. Now it’s my turn to moan quietly though I try to hold back. “That will do.” Kai decides as he pulls away. To be honest I’d have been happy if he’d stayed there until I came and save me from having to take the lead. Still as I watch him return to my bed, waiting patiently I know this is an opportunity I don’t want to give up.

            Carefully I position myself and slowly push into him. I slide in easier than I thought and I realise that Kai’s not a virgin as I had thought. I can’t help but wonder who’s had him before. It’s selfish of me to want him pure and untouched considering my relationship with Reita so I try to ignore the mild jealousy and concentrate on the man so eager beneath me.

            While I’ve been hesitating Kai has already pushed upwards burying my erection deeper within him. With a smile I push down and get a gasp and that’s when I realise it doesn’t matter if he’s been had before. I’m just going to have to claim him as mine.

            I lose myself as I move within him the only conscious thought was of claiming Kai. I could hear his moans mix with mine filling the room around us, helping us loose ourselves in the act.

            All my senses were filled with him, his scent, his touch, the sounds that he made. The taste of his kiss still on my lips. And then the feeling of complete delight as I came into him. I remained buried within him until I knew it was over and rolled off him only to end up on the floor. I’d forgotten we’d only been on a single bed. The small pain brought me back to reality and I sat up feeling myself going red. As I looked up I saw Kai smile down at me with amusement so I give him a dirty look. He could ask me if I was alright.

            “You might as well stay there.” Kai commented as I sat between the two beds. “That is if you’re going to help me out.”

            “For you I’d do anything.” I announce and Kai nods getting up and standing in front of me displaying his own erection. I know perfectly well what he wants so I lean forward and take him into my mouth licking and sucking so I can hear those moans once more.

            But eventually Kai can’t hold back any longer and he comes calling my name before sitting beside me on the floor. I wrap an arm around him and he leans against me silently. There’s no need for words, they’d only ruin the moment. When I finally try to talk to him I realise he’s fallen asleep so I leave him to rest and just sit there listening to his breathing.

            Eventually I have to wake him up and I shake him gently. He seems to be a light sleeper and wakes up looking confused before a smile covers his face. It’s the most beautiful smile I have ever seen and I can’t help but smile too.

            “What time is it?” Kai asks.

            “About three. I’m meant to report back to Aoi now.” I explain feeling a little guilty. I know I haven’t done anything wrong but still it doesn’t feel right to be worrying about Reita after what we’ve just done. Still I can’t help but worry because I know what lays in store for him.

            “Ok. I’m coming with you.” Kai reminds me as he gets up and starts searching for his fallen clothes. We clean up and get dressed as quickly as possible and head towards the prince's room.

            “Wait here.” Kai whispers just down the hall and I watch as he goes to have a talk with the guard. They exchange a few words and the guard leaves.

            “Where did he go?” I ask as I reach Kai.

            “I’m taking over for awhile, giving him a break.” Kai explains opening the door so I can enter.

            “Break it off.” I complain as I walk in on them kissing.

            “It’s so boring in here.” Aoi complains with a grin on his face that suggests it hasn’t been as boring as he’d like me to believe.

            “Kai is helping us.” I say and Kai nods from the open doorway.

            “Someone has to keep an eye on him.” Kai announces.

            “Hey!” I complain.

            “Thank you.” The prince says and all eyes fall on him. He seems to be so genuinely happy that we’re helping his brother that it can’t help but make me feel for him. It must be awful to be locked in your room knowing the fate your own brother faces. Knowing that your sentence will be next.

            “Yoshiki isn’t going to hurt you.” I announce firmly. “Don’t worry about it.”

            “He might if he finds out Reita’s escaped.” Kai interrupts.

            “Why? How could Uruha possibly help us while he’s locked up in here?” I demand.

            “Well if Aoi suddenly leaves after saying so many times he won’t leave Uruha’s side and then Reita suddenly escapes there going to figure it out.” Kai remarks and I glare at him. He’s supposed to be helping us.

            “So what do you suggest?” I demand and Kai smiles.

            “That Aoi stays here and the two of us rescue the former king alone.”

            “But you hate him.” I gasp.

            “But I love you.” Kai explains. “And what you want is what I want.”     

            And with that we form a new plan to rescue the king. I’m glad Kai is helping, he thinks of everything. He’s a really good leader really and with his knowledge of the rebels and Uruha’s knowledge of the castle we manage to come up with a plan that seems flawless in theory. I can only hope it works in practise.
