Annabelle has woken up feeling a bit of pain in her head, the stitches made her feel dizzy and bewildered, but soon she remembered what happened. She tried to move her hands, they were tied, so she rubbed them trying to slide her fingers off the rope, yet the knot was too tight.
She folded her legs, thrusting her body back and leaning it against the wall. Then the young woman dragged herself to a sitting position and lifted her hands over her mouth, so she could try to break the rope with her teeth.
The rope was strong though and Belle failed, still she wouldn't give up.
Suddenly, the cell's door was opened by someone. The lass raised her face slowly, seeing the white pants with fine embroidery first, then the raven hair sliding over his chest, and finally she glimpsed the melancholy at the languid Hitomi Kagewaki's face.
Annabelle said nothing, just sighed sadly. She believed that, no matter what she could say to defend herself, he wouldn't listen. Everybody was the same at the end.
He knelt down in front of her, and as silent as the prisoner, Hitomi took her hands and untied them. Surprised, Annabelle watched the young master releasing her ankles as well.
"Why are you doing this?" The ginger woman asked. "Now that you know what I am, aren't you afraid of me?"
"I don't know" He confessed. "I just know you have saved me once, and for that I owe you".
"My lord," She held his face in her hands unexpectedly "Everything I've done was for your own good, believe me!" Anna begged. His brown orbs remained lowered, hiding from the blue ones. "Look at me!" The lass demanded and he timidly obeyed. "I..." she appealed for attention, yet didn't know how to express what she wanted to say.
"Why were you trying to attack my father?" Seeing her vacillate, Hitomi found some strength and questioned, putting her hands away from his face.
"That man is not your father, a yokai took over his body, you have to trust me!"
"Why should I? Since the beginning you was hiding who you really were. You are a yokai, are you not?" His voice sounded deep and bitter.
"No, my lord, I'm not." Annabelle sighed again "I'm just a foreigner, a woman like anyone else".
"You're not an ordinary woman, you are a witch. It was you cursing the soil of these lands, wasn't it so?"
"No!" she exclaimed. "All this time, I've tried to find a way to save these lands, to save you! I can't believe you are suspecting of me, you're just like all the others!" Anna tightened her bluish skirt and closed her eyes tightly. Finally, she has turned her head to restrain her anger and indignation.
"Anaberu, what are you talking about? Others who?" The suspicious came out and repentance consumed him at last.
"People... people who have passed through my life judging me and accusing me of witchcraft when they discovered the things I could do. It's always the same, and because of this I've been walking by myself around the world for years. I thought you were different..." She looked at him again.
"If you are neither yokai nor witch, what are you then?" he asked in anguish "Tell me the truth and I promise I will not judge you" and he caressed her chin gently "Once you told me you trusted me, so share this secret with me".
"The truth is I don't know how to explain what I am, my lord. Disappointing, isn't it?" She showed a annoyed smile and sighed. Annabelle was visibly tired. "I know that I didn't choose it. I was born this way, with this thing - called for some as a gift and that I named as a curse - inside of me. I've earned this from my mother, who didn't die by a fever, my lord. She was sentenced to death by witchcraft. When I was still a child, I swore to my father to avoid using such power, and years after, when I was older, I made a new vow to myself that I would never use this gift again, then the horse fell on your leg and crushed it. I broke my vow and saved you from an amputation. And after, I have tried to rid the castle and the lands from this sudden evil and you got ill. I thought you would die of fever and one more time I did what I shouldn't, I shared with you this thing a little, to help you getting better. It's not natural, it's not common and in this part I lied about myself. I am what your father had displayed in his hall, a freak." It seemed like she had put a weight out of herself telling him those things, despite of how he would deal with her story.
"No, Anaberu..." Impressed by her tale, Kagewaki lifted the fingers that was holding her chin to her flushed cheek and brushed away a few strands of hair covering it. "You are a deity. I can't let my father harm you and I'm here to protect you from him. I packed up your clothes, a carriage is ready. I came to take you out from this place".
"What?" She definitely wasn't expecting that gesture from him. Her heart got warm into her chest. "Where are we going?" Annabelle asked with a sweet and excited smile on her face.
"Not we, you are going" Hitomi explained and her tender smile dissipated. "If all that you have said about my father is truth, I must fix it" he shrugged, head down.
"I can't leave you alone here, you'll be unprotected!" she held his hands "Come with me, we can travel the world just as we planned before!" She was thrilled, lost within a dream they both have built.
"Anaberu, I can't leave everything behind. Many people depend on my father, and will depend on me when he is gone. I have lands to manage, villagers to care about..." She couldn't blame him, Hitomi was a conscious and responsible lad. "But I'll solve this, I promise. And when this castle is safe, I'll send Naraku to bring you back".
"Naraku..." she whispered that name in bitterness.
"And when you come back..." He took one hand of her and gave it a tender kiss "I want you to be my wife".
Annabelle's heart suddenly accelerated numbing her senses.
"Would you marry me?" Hitomi asked, his voice and features denouncing some unsureness about how she would react.
From that moment, diving into those trembling almond eyes, the Scottish lady allowed herself to do what she deeply had longed, yet has kept in secret for a while. Annabelle would not contain her desires anymore. So, she grabbed him by the nape and caught his lips in an urgent, desperate kiss. That was her answer.
First, Kagewaki couldn't breathe and couldn't guess what to do with his own hands. They groped around her waist and stopped resting on her back. His mouth, before tense, finally opened up ready to taste the softness of the tongue that wanted to entwine with his. Gentle fingers stroked the back of his neck, playing with his dark locks, then caressed his shoulders, his back, and his uncontrolled chest. He got warm, she already was.
Kagewaki pulled her closer still, carefully, sealing their bodies. The lad shuddered as he felt those throbbing breasts against his chest and her scent made him inebriate. Annabelle cherished him into the embrace, trying to contain his tremors. The young master was far more nervous than she.
"It's time to go, soon the guards will come to pick her up" the low, sombre tone echoed through the iron bars of the door. He has been sneaking around, as ever.
Annabelle suppressed a shout of surprise, Hitomi straightened his clothes, feeling uncomfortably.
Was he there all the time?! She has been taken by shivers just thinking of such an odd situation.
They got up, the war lord's son came out of the cell first, but when Annabelle was about to walk through the door, Naraku got in the way.
"What do you want?" She asked impatiently.
"Recompose yourself." the Baboon said in a deep voice, crimson eyes glazed at the open neckline, which ribbons had loosened revealing the curves of the rounded breasts, covered only by a thin layer of white silk.
Annabelle wasn't a shy person, even so she blushed from head to toe and tied the lace of her dress awkwardly, in a rush. She tied it so tight that she almost lost her breath. Naraku turned around and finally they all leaved the small prison.

Hitomi went down the stone steps accompanied by the White Baboon and his shrouded fiancee, there was his boundary. The chariot with two strong horses - one belonged to Annabelle, the other bright white - was ready to go.
"Your clothes are in it, I had left some supplies in there as well" Hitomi pointed to that fancy vehicle. Then he took off the shroud covering her head and had a glimpse of her features once more before she would leave.
"And my harp?" Anna asked.
"It's here with me, for you having a reason to come back" Kagewaki smiled tenderly.
"And aren't you reason enough?" Anna held him, her cheek pressed against his chest. "I love you..." she whispered the confession, so she could sleep well in the nights they would be apart.
She heard his vital organ throbbing frantically and collapsed within the arms entwining her. His hands smoothed her long red hair, his nose has hid in the locks smelling them softly, then Kagewaki kissed her forehead.
"It's time to leave, Annabelle." An impatient Naraku has spoken.
"Go..." the lad took a deep breath, convincing himself that he had to release her. Although, in the bottom of his heart, Hitomi wished he could keep Annabelle into his embrace forever. "If things take so long to be fine, I shall go after you, I'll find you. Even if it's just for us to share a single night together."
"I will be waiting," she stepped back slowly, keeping their hands together as long as she could. At last, their fingers separated, their tips brushed and that was their last contact. "my lord" Annabelle bowed.
"My lady..." for the first time, he has correctly pronounced the words while trying to imitate how nobility of her homeland use to reverence. Annabelle smiled proudly, Hitomi learned it in the end. She climbed the carriage and sat beside Naraku with that silly smile on her face, then they left.
