Dinner was a subdued affair as they sat around the table, eating quietly and watching Elodie slurp up the noodles. The tiny girl's eyes started to droop, and they both got up at the same time to get her out of the chair she had been sitting in. "Mestwo?” she asked. "I SLeeppee."

"Okay, Elodie.” He said as he picked her up. She looked at Sarah and grabbed at her hand to pull her along as well; it brought a smile to Sarah's face as she looked at the girl over Mitsuhide's shoulder. She was glad that the girl felt comfortable around them despite what had happened to her in the past few days. She had always heard that children were resilient but never understood until now what that really meant. She watched as he gently placed the girl down in the playpen and covered her up. Her eyes were half-closed already when he went over and turned off the light and left the door half-open. He took the Princess's hand to lead her away from the room and upstairs to wh

    "Wha—," she found herself back in his arms being carried toward the back of the house. He kicked open a door on the opposite side of where Elodie was fast asleep. She looked about the room bathed in darkness as he placed her down on the bed. When he climbed in and stayed looming above her, she couldn't place the look in his eyes as anything but desire. They glowed in the darkness, much like an animal when the light hits them. His mouth took hers gently, but as the dam burst that he must have held back since the first time they met, she could feel everything he had built up. He cradled her head and then rolled her on top of him. Everything that he felt was shining in his eyes in the darkn

    She awoke while it was still dark. She felt relaxed beyond anything she had ever dreamed of. A heavy arm was tossed over her side, and she quickly remembered why she was so deeply relaxed. His soft breathing behind her brought her back to reality from her dreams. As she turned slightly, she saw that he was also awake as she looked into his haunting eyes."Did I wake you?” he asked as he moved closer and nipped at her nose lightly. His arm still heavy on her side, tucked her closer to him as he rubbed her back gently. He had been enjoying just watching her as she slept so peacefully in that sated state."No.," she said. He rolled over on to his back, and she curled up next to his side. She felt it was her place to be there as he gently chuckled. He was also warm, and the air around them had chilled a bit."Then go back to sleep, Princess,” he said as he kissed her forehead."I don't think I can.” She said. Imagines of the pr

    Two weeks later......"What do you mean you lost him?” Col. Oda nearly yelled in the middle of the main floor of the building. "We had the son of a bitch now you can't find him?""Sorry, sir.” the tech said."Don't be sorry. Just find his ass again.” Col. Oda said.Col. Oda stomped away, and the slammed the door behind him. He sat down in his chair and knew he should take a break. He couldn't, though. He looked at the picture on his desk, his team. They were a ragtag bunch, but he genuinely cared for all of them. All but three of them were gone now that were in the picture, and he would give his last breath to make sure the other two stayed alive. Aaron could easily take over for him when he did retire as long as he still had a hand to guide him, and she was that hand. She was the reason the team was founded in the first place, this building, these people they probably didn't know her story or her origins, but

    A Few Days later…."Why did he leave Elodie alive?” she asked to herself as she was pacing the room. She had been thinking about the case and how unusual it really was. Sarah was trying to separate herself from the actual case by thinking about it as something that was happening around her instead of to her. Though she was remaining neutral, she knew that was difficult when she let her mind wander to how this was affecting her life. It had changed it completely.Sarah had always been the go-to person to handle things like this in the field. Her detachment had been things all the soldiers that met her had commented on at some point. She was so good at it people often wondered if she even had feelings at all. She knew the downside to it, though. She could focus on the task at hand, and it would hit her later on out of the blue. It could easily sideline her without much warning.Though she also knew that this was her life on

    "Colonel, it isn't as easy as running a search,” Marie said as she handed him the report for Mitsunari's lab. "We are working as fast as we can, but sir, it is just the two of us, and we have to search every facility's records."He looked up at the smaller woman who had never said anything more than hello to him as she would scurry away as fast as she could away from him. He was surprised to see her handing the report to him instead of the mild-mannered young man who ran one of the labs underneath the princess. Oda was consumed with the thoughts of bringing her and Aaron home as it was now close to a month of having them in hiding. Aaron had been holed up traveling with one of the spec ops guys moving every three days, the two were now at each other's throats and would soon come to blows if they didn't act fast. The princess, on the other hand, seemed to enjoy her captor a little too much, another reason to bring them home. Col. Oda couldn't place the unde

    In the dim lighted room that was attached to the labs in the main building that everyone worked in the two people sat as they went through the databases one by one to find the entries they needed to find. The only way that it seemed to locate where this person who hid in the darkness could be. Four of their people were in the wind and hiding because of them and they needed to bring them home safely.Mitsinari's amethyst eyes lit up. He started making notes as he waited for the copier to print. "I found it!” he said with an exclamation that wasn’t normally in his voice. Almost of two weeks of searching he thought he really did have the answer this time. They would be one step closer to bring the princess home along with Aaron and the two people they used to guard them."You did?” Marie asked."Worse than looking for a needle in a needle stack, but yes, I did,” he said."Where?” she asked."Outside of DC,&r

    The four agencies moved fast and were in place within a few hours. Six teams were standing by ready to breach the building and hopefully take down the person responsible for the many deaths and the fact that two of theirs had to go into hiding for a month. Colonel Oda and a small team stood off to the side, waiting for the breach to happen.The teams entered and went radio silent. This was the part he hated, the waiting. He held his breath as he heard the gunfire started, he hoped that no one would be hurt in this. He listened to the "clear" over the comms and went in to see what went on. He walked into a small room in the back and saw everything. It was almost too much to take in, but he did. Not only had this man planned every detail of the torture he documented it as he applied it. Photos tapes to the wall, details written out explaining every bit of the process, he also had a kit on the table with the drugs that lead them to him, the most distu

    "WHAT?” Aaron exploded."I see.” Oda responded."Now? You pick now to tell people?” Mitsuhide asked. Throwing his hands in the air."I was going to tell you later, and you weren't supposed to hear that now.” She said as she smiled at him.

    Three months later….The garden was in full bloom. From the flowers, she had planted to the vegetables producing things. She was in the back, harvesting what she could for the day. She was smiling when he came out into the back and was placing things in her basket. “Sweetheart everything okay back here?” he asked as he moved in back of her and he wrapped his arms around her.“Glad to see you home at a decent hour.” She said as she turned around.“Well, you see this new position required me to be there to plan ops versus going on them.” He said with a grin.“You like your new job?” she asked.“I do.” He said as he placed his forehead on hers, “You see, there is this little female who became everything important in the world to me a few months ago.”“Well, then she is one lucky woman.” She sai

    Five hours later, the entire yard was buzzing with activity. She found out he never did anything half measure. There were four trucks packed on the street as he was trying to direct everyone in a way that would lead to success and things being easier for the two people. She had brought the pups upstairs so they would not be underfoot while so many people were there.She saw the planters that had arrived an hour earlier that she had already began working on. Matthew had orders paving stones and white crushed gravel for the rest of the yard as well as another grey gravel for the concrete. They now sat in piles at the end of the yard. His hole was complete, and they could begin as soon as things quieted down as the delivery people left.He was supervising the fence and sod being unloaded and placed on the side of the house. Her plant soil had arrived first, and she had already taken charge of that. She had placed the planters w

    She woke to the sound of two yipping foxes and a man laughing. As she blinked her eyes open, she was surprised when one of the pups somehow flew on the bed and was dancing on her side. “Get her.” He heard and she saw that Tengu was jumping on her.“Did you teach him that?” she asked in her haze still half asleep.“I didn’t have too. He wanted you since I brought them down.” Matthew’s deep voice said as he walked in the room after the small fox. He bent down, and Kappa also joined her on the bed. He was slightly more subtle with his affections. He licked her face as she lifted the covers and he crawled into the snuggling up against her. “I did buy my replacement.”“I think you did. He doesn’t allow monster to attack me.” She said. As Tengu was trying to bite her foot through the blankets.“But sweetheart Tengu was begging to come

    She lay in his arms, wondering how anything could feel so good and so weird at the same time. It was wonderful feeling. However so new to her that it was anything but as well. She knew that her whole life changed in the blink of an eye. She didn’t know how they fit into her life or how smooth everything is going to run for the rest of her life with another person involved things were going to be different. Very different for her. She never wanted to rely on anyone else life. The fact that she didn’t make friends didn’t bother her for the simple reason.Everything this man had done changed the way that she thought about life and her single state he wanted more.

    After they ate dinner watching the pups play in the back yard as the light slipped away. They finished up and collected the two dogs knowing tomorrow was going to be a work filled day. They had not really spoke about sleeping arrangements again; however, as they placed the pups in their crate for the night and turned on the light in the room, they had them in, he took her hand. Leading her downstairs to the couch and flipped on the television as he laid down on the couches and waited for her to do the same.Her body was in front of his as they laid there with his head propped up on his arm and the other thrown over her side anchoring her there next to him. She could feel the tension that was brewing within him as it slipped off him and into the world.“Matthew, what is it?” she asked.“Something is just off.” He said.“What do you mean?” she asked back.“Lists. Deadly viruses. You. None of it

    “How about this one?” he called out from his office as she was trying to prepare a salad for dinner. She walked from the kitchen to his office where she was standing by him, and he swooped her onto her lap and smiled as she protested for a minute.“What are the dimensions?” she asked.“Eighteen by ten.” He replied.“That is slightly bigger than I thought you would go.” She replied.“They will need their space and as you said a place for them to run. I don’t want to keep them in it all the time, of course.” He said.“Of course.” She said, smiling. “Tengu is going to be your partner in crime.”“And Kappa is going to want to be near you most of the time.” He replied.“Matthew, you do realize I don’t live here, right?” she asked as she looked at him.“One step at a time.” He said.

    The day seemed to fade away as he sat at his desk in the office doing some work while he could as she lazed about on the couch with the two new additions to the house. They were still very much puppies regardless of their interesting parentage. They both liked to sleep, and they would get up to romp around and then fall asleep again. She wondered as she watched them if they would be more active at night like foxes are apt to be.Kappa took to her. He was always by her side no matter if she moved him away, he was found snuggling up to her within minutes. Tengu went to a spot it must be that Matthew favored. He would curl up with his long fluffy white tail wrapped around him and wait for Matthew to return to the spot. When he did, she had dozed off.“Well, guys, let’s give her a break,” Matthew said softly to the two. Tengu was more than happy to play with Matthew while Kappa wanted to go back to her side. Matthew chuckled as he picked him

    Chapter FifteenShe looked at the bundles curled up in her lap and thought about them. “We really didn’t think this through.” She said as it snapped him out of his quiet phase.“What do you mean sweetheart?” he asked.“We don’t have anything for them, Matthew.” She replied, “And they aren’t just normal dogs.”“So what?” he asked.“So that means they need extra care Matthew.” She replied. “I don’t know anything about foxes let alone fox hybrid pups.”“Well, I am sure we can find what we need to know out.” He said. “there is a wonderful thing called the internet. You know the place we played our game?”“Smart ass.” She said.“Better than being a dumb one.” He replied as he shrugged his shoulders. “Look we can get everything they need as the

    Chapter FourteenShe woke sometime while it was still dark. The blankets had been pulled up around her, and she felt his arm as it was thrown over her side. The weight of it was comforting in a way she had never known. She could feel her body so alive but still so far off in the distance. She now understood why people liked this. It was something that had alluded her for so long that she was now finally understanding.He was breathing soft and steady into her hair as his body had curled around hers. The fit of his much larger body around her made her feel safe as well. Another new feeling that she had never known. She felt free and safe there in his arms. It was bliss.She closed her eyes again as she smiled to herself as she thought she could get used to this feeling. She slipped back into Morpheus’ grip. Her dreams were simple and basic.
