All Chapters of Raging Hearts: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Chapter 2 "Flame of Jealousy" Kyoko gritted her teeth, the tension between them was almost tangible and it was really starting to unnerve her. Toya sat on a branch in the tree near the fire and Kyoko sat at the fire by herself. They still hadn’t said a single word to each other and now he wouldn’t even look at her. She frowned feeling slightly insulted. Was kissing her really so bad? Toya sat in the tree sulking. He’d seen her frown. Had him kissing her been so bad? She hadn’t said a word to him about what he had done. He’d rather her yell at him or something but he didn’t know what to think about her not saying anything. Was she that mad at him? Should he apologize? His lips thinned in denial. He wouldn’t apologize for something he hadn’t meant to do. Should he just ignore it and act like it didn’t happen? At this point, he just wished everything would go back to the way it was, although he himself would not forget the kiss. Toya glanced back down at her wondering what she w

Chapter 4 "Dangerous Feelings" Kyoko glanced up hearing the voice in her mind telling her softly to do so. Her tears reflected the light like glittering diamonds as she watched Kyou floating above her and she sent him an adoring smile. Suki tensed up at Kyou’s deadly question and glared up at him. She shook her head, "It wasn’t any of the guardians that hurt her. It was your uncle Hyakuhei. He had a spell cast on her.” Suki squared her shoulders, angry with him for accusing them of hurting Kyoko. “We killed the demon who cast the spell so Kyoko will be alright within a couple of hours." She stepped in front of Kyoko, trying to block her friend from Kyou’s view. After Kyoko told her earlier about Kyou kissing her... Well, she didn’t want Kyoko getting any ideas right now. She would let her kiss Shinbe first if it came to that, so she blocked his view and folded her arms across her chest as if standing guard. Kyou smiled coldly at Suki but his eyes narrowed, which sent a warnin

Chapter 6 "More Than Jealousy" Kyoko still felt like she was in a trance but the feelings she was having were so nice, she really didn’t mind. What was Kyou doing to her? It’s like… little by little he was building up to something much bigger, getting her ready for something. Either that or he was putting her in heat. Kyoko glanced down at her hand. They were holding hands? She followed the arm with her gaze up to the face of Toya. Toya was holding her hand? She smiled. Then thought lamely to herself, 'when did he show up?’ Shaking her head to clear away any remaining fuzz, she glanced at Toya in confusion. His eyes looked a bit softer than before… and worried. "Toya, what’s going on? Why do I feel like I’m coming out of a heavy fog or something?” When he didn’t respond, Kyoko pulled back on her hand so that Toya either had to let go or answer her question. Keeping his back to her, he let go of her hand and took another step but the next step faltered. "Kyoko, I think we shou

Chapter 8 "Toya's Desire" Hearing a branch snap, Kyoko jerked her head up to see Toya standing at the edge of the trees. The silver highlights glistened within the dark bangs that shielded his eyes from her view. Kyoko's mind started going a mile a minute. Had he heard what she’d said? Was he angry? Frowning slightly, she stood up not knowing what to do. "Toy-ya?" When she said his name, his gaze had been focused directly on her lips. He thought about how sweet they would taste if he kissed them right then and there. He felt the overwhelming desire of wanting to be inside of her and a burst of heat flooded his veins. The demon blood within him and his guardian instincts were fighting for dominance and he was no longer in control. Both sides of him knew what he wanted and would not be denied this time. Not after hearing the damning words fall from her lips in sweet confession. Shinbe’s senses sizzled… awakening him. He felt extraordinary power within close range and scrambl

Chapter 10 "True Lies" Toya walked out of the cave holding Kyoko against him as tenderly as he could. Seeing Kyou still standing near the entrance had the tender hold changing to one of possessiveness. He just wished everybody would have left them alone and let them enjoy each other for a little while, that none of this would have happen to her. He watched Kyou wearily, wondering if he would still try to take her from him. Kyou didn’t turn to acknowledge the fact that Toya had come out of the cave, nor could any emotion be detected in his voice as he said indifferently. "It would not be good if you were attacked while holding the girl so I will stay with you until we reach our brothers.” Without saying another word, Kyou slowly walked in the direction that would lead them to Shinbe and the others, knowing Toya would follow. Kyou had much to think about. He’d come to a conclusion today, that he did in fact know what love was because he saw it in the actions of his little brother.
