Wow - It's been so long since I've updated this story. The chapter is going to be short but there is a change of plans. So...I hope everyone likes it even though the pairing between Kougaiji and Sanzou is brief and there isn't any sex between them. Sorry. It just didn't turn out that way. But...there will be sex eventually.

The Prince’s Mate

Chapter 5

          Gyokumen growled; her nails grew long and sharp. They turned black with her anger and demonic power. The guards didn’t move. They held their swords at the ready. They’d never actually seen Gyokumen fight. She lashed out with her claws, she caught a guard across the face and sent him flying the whole way of the huge throne room – to hit the back wall. The cracking of bones seemed loud in the room. The guard fell a hundred feet, and didn’t move. This got the others moving. They brandished their swords, slashed at the traitor. And none could get past her defenses.

            Gyokumen laughed; “I wont let that whore’s son win!” she called. Her claws turned into whips and snapped through the air. She laughed as she drew blood. The cries of the guards brought Andras. The Demonic Lord was taller than all the demons in the castle by three feet. His long white hair acted like a shroud and his sword was the quickest. He charged through the solid oak doors of the throne room. His red eyes assessed the situation quickly before he drew his sword and swung. For such a tall demon, he had to have a very long sword. The dimensions were not known to anyone but him. He easily cut the whips in half; bringing forth blood.

            Gyokumen cried out in pain as the whips returned to claws and then fingers. They bled at the knuckle. All ten fingers were now halved. Andras pointed the sword at Gyokumen’s throat; “The King has spoken,” he said. He nodded to two guards how grabbed Gyokumen’s arms, and shackled her hand and foot. She cursed and spat. Growling like a wild cat she was dragged out of the throne room, bound for the dungeons.

            Andras swept his black fur cap into its proper place. How it’d fallen askew during the short fight was rather a mystery to him. “Clean this mess up, get the injured to the Healing Wing and bury the dead,” he ordered those who’d stayed behind. The last three guards saluted and then scurried about. They’d originally been six, but Tiberius was dead, Jox had lost his leg, and Vorn had been knocked unconscious.

            Andras entered the King’s study after Kougaiji permitted his entrance. All the doors were made for him to pass through easily; which, he decided, was rather nice of the original builders to think of. Demons were as different as humans in height and colours. He was of the Norwegian Demon’s who’d immigrated to Shangri-La some where around two-thousand B.C. The Eastern Demons were short and were not as prone to loyalty as his sort was; however, he had hoped that his influence over Kougaiji since the passing of his Father had taught the young King something.

            He knelt and saluted as the warrior’s had always done. Then he stood. Kougaiji had put down his feather pen which he’d been writing with; “What happened?” the King asked. His tone denoted that he was rather bored, but expected Gyokumen to have done something.

            “My King, she killed one guard and injured two others in the Throne room. She was subdued by myself, I had my men bind her and take her to the dungeons. We have a cell ready and she will not escape. I also had my men begin cleaning up the Throne room and taking care of their comrades,” Andras reported.

            “Good,” Kougaiji nodded, “We’ll have the coronation and wedding on the same day. I can’t wait any longer if I am to consolidate my power. I will then find a way to be rid of the Minus Wave and Re-animate my Mother. Andras, can you help the Priest with my last mission?” Kougaiji asked.

            “I will, My King,” Andras saluted again.

            “Thank you, please see to all the details,”

            Andras bowed and then left the Study, his dark cape floating along behind him.

            Sanzou was in need of a smoke when the barred gate to the small room was opened and the biggest demon he’d ever seen entered. “My King wishes you to break the curse that the gods bestowed upon his mother,”

            “Oh?” Sanzou blinked. He crossed his arms.

            “If the Mistress was able to bring my King back to life, than it is not beyond thought that a Priest, blessed by the gods, can do the same,” the demon replied.

            “And I am to do this because?” Sanzou asked.

            “The King bids it,” the demon deadpanned.

            Sanzou wanted to shoot something. This really sucked. He was supposed to stop the Minus Wave and the ultimate baddie of all Demons from being re-animated. He had no idea who Kougaiji’s mother was – nor if she was good. Well. There was only one way to find out. The gods could go suck balls as far as he was concerned.

            “I need to speak to Kougaiji, I’m not doing shit for free,” he growled and turned back to the small window he’d been staring out moments before. The demon left him, obviously knowing that Sanzou was the King’s “concubine”.

            “Let’s see how long that holds out,” Sanzou muttered.

            They had dinner that evening in Kougaiji’s study. Sanzou sat in a chair beside the fire place slowly picking at the rice he’d been served.

            “If I bring your Mother back for you, I want to be let free,” Sanzou was saying.

            “What will you do?” Kougaiji asked.

            “Return to the three Aspects and tell them I failed,” Sanzou snorted.

            “Why is that?” Kougaiji asked, “I’m not like my father and I all ready know there is no way to bring him back, and to be frank, I don’t want to re-animate him. Mother always had time for me, we had a stronger bond. She didn’t like my Father too much either. I may have found a way to stop the Minus Wave as well and I plan on making peace with the Humans,”

            “That’s good; less work for me,” Sanzou humphed.

            “So, if you failed…what will they do to you?” Kougaiji asked.

            “Probably tell me what a failure of a priest I am and demand I give up the scripture to them,”

            “They can’t!” Kougaiji threw another log onto the fire. It sputtered and sparks rose into the air briefly.

            “They can, but I won’t give it up without a fight,” Sanzou shrugged.

            “I see,”

            “You haven’t agreed to my condition, what’s more important to you?”

            “My Mother, you will have your freedom after you grant my Mother hers,”

            “Good,” and Sanzou stood, “Bring me to her,” he grumped, “The sooner this is over the better,”
