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 1 “Sacrifice”
Cursed Hearts The Guardian Heart Crystal Series Book 8Amy Blankenship Copyright © 2010 Amy Blankenship English Edition Published by Amy BlankenshipSecond Edition Published by TekTime All rights reserved. Chapter 1 “Sacrifice” The guardian brothers gathered around the remains of the maiden statue. Even wounded and bloody, they were still a sight to behold. Their translucent wings spanned out behind them like the angels of legend, but the deadly weapons they’d just used to beat back the rain of demons told of their true nature. The guardians were more dangerous and lethal than the demons could ever hope to be. They are the protectors of The Heart of Time… the time portal that is the link between the demon world and all the human ones. Time and space separate the worlds so no one can cross without the use of the sacred portal. The guardians had never expected to turn their power against what they’d been born to protect. The winds of change ha
Cursed Hearts Chapter 2 “A Voice from the Past”
Chapter 2 “A Voice from the Past” 15 years later… Kyoko paused in front of the office door not wanting to go in. She’d been at the all girls’ boarding school as far back as she could remember and being called to Mrs. Crap’s office had never been a good thing. It gave the words ‘Oh Crap’ a new meaning. “Come in Hogo.” Even muted from the other room, the female voice seemed harsh and unyielding, the kind that basically grated on people’s nerves. Kyoko flinched wondering how the hell the old lady even knew she was standing there. She took a second to glance around her, looking for the secret spy camera she had never found then shrugged and opened the door. Seeing that the head mistress was not alone in the office, Kyoko shifted from one foot to the other wondering what she’d done to get in trouble this time. Since the school was in the middle of nowhere and there were no males allowed on the premises, she’d never been in the same room with the opposite sex and instantl
Cursed Hearts Chapter 3 “Hormones Are Us High School”
Chapter 3 “Hormones Are Us High School” Kyoko had been frustrated all morning trying to figure out what to wear. It wasn’t like she had much of a selection since she had worn the same thing every day at the boarding school. Luckily she found a slice of color to go with her boring outfit. One of the girls had given her a shirt last year for Christmas. It was emerald green, short, and frilly. She had always loved it but had never had a chance to wear it. Now that she had it on with one of her black school skirts, she felt almost excited about the prospect of going shopping after school and replacing her wardrobe. Mr. Sennin had given her the bankcard along with her account information yesterday on the plane. Kyoko had almost screamed out loud when he’d told her the balance in the account. She was glad she didn’t when he’d added the fact that the card was only from the recreational account. Her true holdings were in a completely different account. Now she was faced with h
Cursed Hearts Chapter 4 “Bad Boys and Romeo”
Chapter 4 “Bad Boys and Romeo” Lunch was next and when Tasuki got in the cafeteria line, Kyoko glanced out the large glass windows and started toward the outside eating area. Seeing tables scattered everywhere on the concrete, she looked past them and notice a of couple picnic tables under beautiful shade trees. Needing a few minutes of solace to calm down from all the morning's excitement, she picked the biggest tree and sat down at the base of it, facing away from the school. Hyakuhei leaned against the tree beside Kyoko, though he knew it was a moot point to do so. His eyes were dark, without any emotion at all and his lips held no hint of his mood. He was already tired of being invisible to her but he knew he had to bide his time. How could he comfort someone that didn’t even know he was there? Reaching into the backpack, Kyoko pulled out the small soft cooler that she’d stuffed full of grapes and relaxed against the smooth bark of the tree. Hearing a motorcycle cl
Cursed Hearts Chapter 5 “Phantom of the Opera”
Chapter 5 “Phantom of the Opera” Toya heard the locks click on the surrounding doors and could feel his brothers closing in at a fast pace. When the room lit up with shimmering light, his gaze searched for Kamui recognizing that it was his magic illuminating the room. Seeing all four of the brothers headed toward him, his senses went on full alert. “Any idea what kind of demon it is?” He backed up in line with his brothers when the heavy stage curtains fell from the ropes that held them up, barely missing him. “I’m guessing it wants to be the phantom of the opera when it grows up,” Shinbe stated then they heard a clicking noise that sounded like claws tap-dancing across hardwood. It moved so fast all they saw was a streak of darkness. “Come out, come out, where ever you are,” Kotaro called making his voice echo softly in the theater. “Nice touch,” Kyou complimented him with a raise of his eyebrow. “Now can we please be grownups and kill this thing?” Toya nodded t
Cursed Hearts Chapter 6 “What Demons Fear”
Chapter 6 “What Demons Fear” Kyoko had just finished putting away her new clothes when the doorbell echoed making her jump. Rushing downstairs, she looked through the peephole and saw a delivery guy holding five large boxes of pizza. Opening the door, she frowned knowing it was a mistake. Before she could say anything, the guy held a hand up to stop her. “I know you didn’t order the pizza because the family across the street ordered it for you. It’s a welcome to the neighborhood gift.” He smiled and handed her the boxes. “And they already paid for the pizzas and left me a huge tip.” He nodded and headed back for his car. Kyoko smiled nervously then looked across the street. Seeing long silver hair flashing in the porch light she knew that could only be Kyou. All the guys from school were out on the porch looking across the street at her. Kyoko’s lips curved into a real smile. She waved at them then motioned for them to come over. “And we have our invite,” Shinbe nearly

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 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 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 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 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 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 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
