Cursed Hearts Chapter 12 “Sibling Rivalry”
Chapter 12 “Sibling Rivalry” Kamui entered the dining room by himself because Tasuki had decided it was a good time to walk very slowly and look over his shoulder a hundred times as if it would make a difference. He’d just left the brokenhearted houseguest alone knowing there were more important things than babysitting a depressed demi-guardian. He also noted that Toya could sense Kyoko wasn’t with him by the way he refused to look up from the plate that he hadn’t taken a single bite of since he’d left for Kyoko’s house. One depressed demi-guardian, and one depressed powerful-as-hell guardian… Kamui didn’t have to guess at which one truly needed babysitting. He would bet the house on Toya any day. Kamui sighed knowing he was only stalling. “Before I say anything, you have to still yourselves and remain in this room… no running across the road.” This had several sets of eyebrows disappearing beneath bangs. So far so good. “Tama has come home.” There, he’d said it. Now what
Cursed Hearts Chapter 13 “Jealous Hearts”
Chapter 13 “Jealous Hearts” Tama sat in a chair beside Kyoko’s bed. Nothing was funny to him anymore as he rubbed his hands over his arms. The cold chills kept sneaking their way back across his flesh every time he remembered the sound of Kyoko’s screams. They had been heartbreaking, wrenching sobs… the kind he had never heard before. He hadn’t wanted to ever hear Kyoko make such a sound. His lips thinned, knowing Hyakuhei had left them for now. Tama had felt his aura vanish the moment Kyoko had started screaming. Killing Toya had not been part of the plan, so what had happened? They were supposed to let Kyoko regain her powers, and then take her away from the guardians. If the guardians were to attack them… then the demons would handle it… right? That had always been the plan. Tama stood up and walked over to Kyoko’s bedroom window, looking down at the three guardians who stood out by the pool. He watched as Shinbe cast a spell on the water, and then Kyou kneeled, reachi
Cursed Hearts Chapter 14 “Caught in the Middle”
Chapter 14 “Caught in the Middle” Tama’s confusion was still riding him as the dream came. He was standing out by the pool behind the house where he and Kyoko had been born. The crystal blue water had clouds of crimson floating within it and it was stretching out like creepy fingers leading a trail right to where he stood at the edge of the pool. He was about to back away from the sight when he heard a gasp coming from the direction of the sliding glass doors. His lips parted as he glanced over to see Kyoko staring at him in horror. Her emerald eyes lowered to his hands as she shook her head and slowly started backing up as if she was frightened of him. “No… not you. Please… not you,” she whispered as her eyes stayed riveted on his hands. “I thought you loved me… my brother!” her voice raised with the last words and the sound of her screaming sobs started. Tama felt the cold chills when he watched her fall to her knees. He glanced down at his hands seeing fresh blood s
Cursed Hearts Chapter 15 “Disturbing Behavior”
Chapter 15 “Disturbing Behavior” Kotaro stepped back into the shadows as he watched Tama run from the mouth of the cave. He’d felt the demonic vibes from a distance but they had quickly quieted. He turned his gaze from Tama’s retreating form wondering if this was where Hyakuhei had been hiding all along. It was only a couple of miles behind Kyoko’s house… right here on the land that she now owned. He flattened his back against the rock as he closed his eyes and silently called to Kyou. He would have no way of knowing if his brother heard him, but Kyou had never let him down before. If Hyakuhei was inside the cave… then he could not fight him alone and win. Hyakuhei raised his ebony eyes to the ceiling of the underground sanctuary. He was no longer alone. In an instant he was standing at his full height in front of Kotaro, watching the guardian’s eyes flash open as his presence was felt. Before Kotaro could lunge at him, Hyakuhei's hand snaked out, wrapping tightly around
Cursed Hearts Chapter 16 “Breaking Point”
Chapter 16 “Breaking Point” Shinbe lifted himself above Kyoko as she clung to him. He couldn’t hear Tama’s voice any more, but he didn’t care. He had what he’d always wanted and knowing he wouldn’t be able to keep her would be the death of him. Even now he could feel them coming for him… Hyakuhei and his demons. Lowering his lips to the shell of her ear, Shinbe whispered the riddle he would leave her with, “You have already chosen your true hero Kyoko. At first I thought he was a mere human but I was wrong. Death will not separate us this time… because we share the same amethyst soul… him and I. It’s time to stop being jealous of myself. We both love you.” Thrusting her away from him, Shinbe turned in midair just as Hyakuhei teleported. There hadn’t even been time to fight. As Hyakuhei manifested into flesh, his hand was already inside Shinbe’s chest squeezing his heart painfully. Kyoko screamed as Hyakuhei locked eyes on her over Shinbe’s shoulder. He was so angry and
Cursed Hearts Chapter 17 “Black Winged Angel”
Chapter 17 “Black Winged Angel” Hyakuhei growled feeling the power push against him. It was part of the power he’d given her in the very beginning. That power was not meant to be used against him, but a way to keep them together and her safe. Jealousy flared once again in his veins knowing the amethyst guardian was still deep inside her and needed to be purged. “Kyoko,” He spoke her name with a low, predatory sound to his voice, his tone dangerously full of warning. “I am the only man that belongs inside of you!” He reached to recapture her, slashing his lips angrily across hers, his kiss punishing in power and dominance, a reprimand in passion for depriving him of her when she knew he couldn’t bear it. Inhaling her cry, he could feel Shinbe’s power leaving her and slamming into him with breathtaking brutality. Rage surged through him, turning his eyes into glistening black voids. The idea of another man touching that precious skin, kissing her sweet, delicious lips, was
Cursed Hearts Chapter 18 “The Demons Between Us”
Chapter 18 “The Demons Between Us” Hyakuhei couldn’t help his anger when Kyoko tried to push him away. Rejection? She was rejecting him after all that he had done just to be with her? He paid no heed to the small fists that were hitting his chest and shoulders. Instead, he tightened his hold possessively. All the emotions of the past mingled with the years of separation to center on the fact that he once again held her within his arms… tasting her. He’d fought so long and so hard… if he had to fight her… then he would. Hearing the echoes of whimpers and smelling the scent of tears, Hyakuhei forced his way into her mind looking for a way to erase her fears. Kyoko jerked her head to the side barely having time to scream the word “STOP” before Hyakuhei reclaimed her lips with a low growl of agitation. Damn him. She needed a moment to think. A moment to understand all the damage they’d done in both worlds. She wasn’t placing the blame only on him. This was just as much her fa
Cursed Hearts Chapter 19 “Ties That Bind”
Chapter 19 “Ties That Bind” Tama ran up the stairs and banged on the door of the master bedroom. “Hurry up or we’re gonna be late!” The door flew open revealing Tasuki standing there with his hair looking like he’d stuck his finger in a light socket and wearing a towel. It wouldn’t have been so bad if he didn’t have the words ‘bad boy’ written on his chest in bright red lipstick. “What the hell do you want?” Tasuki demanded. Tama covered his eyes with his hands. “Oh my god! Get that stuff off and put something decent on please, there are virgin eyes here.” “I’m having a moment with your sister,” Tasuki exclaimed with a wicked smirk. Tama glared, “Listen here you perverted jerk, you promised we were going to that Halloween party and I want to go. I’ve never been to one and you are not going to deprive me of the finer aspects of being a teenager.” Since her grandfather had hidden her then the same applied for Tama. To date, Tama was no longer one of the unsolved

Cursed Hearts Chapter 11 “Uninvited”
Chapter 11 “Uninvited” “You’re not Superman,” Shinbe informed their reluctant houseguest as the guardians returned home. “Okay Captain Obvious, I may not be anything special when I’m standing next to one of you guys,” Tasuki argued. “But for a human I am. I could’ve stayed at my house instead of being kidnapped into the Brady Bunch.” He sulked, not liking the fact that he didn’t know where Toya had taken Kyoko. “You’re demon bait now and you only have yourself to thank for that. And guess what… You DON’T get to play the martyr.” Shinbe opened the door and shoved him inside. “Welcome to your new home, chew toy.” The others tried to ignore their new member as they took turns glancing up the stairs and at each other. They could feel the barrier and were curious about it. Barriers had not been one of Toya’s strong points since coming to this world and the one they were feeling coming from Toya’s room was very powerful. Sure… he’d always been able to break barriers, but not
