Her lips tightened at the corners, “I never expected for this day to come, when I left you I didn’t think you’d return to our clan seeking me out. Not once, but twice.” She sighed, as if he’d been wrong to search for the mother who’d abandoned him. But then he realized something.
“You knew about my coming back to the clan?” He asked, his voice soft.
She lifted a hand, covering her lips in surprise. Before she shrugged her shoulders slightly, she lowered her hand. “We are all adults now, so I see no point in hiding it. I abandoned you and returned to the family main house per my agreement with them. Once you were mature you’d be removed, and I would be given a profitable marriage. Which is why my brother attacked you,” she narrowed her eyes, “I was so ready to move on with my life after my mistake, but when I saw you enter the gates years later,” she gave a shiver, looking at him with revulsion, “you’re truly a monster meant to haunt me. I thought everything was settled when the Council came for you. I made sure that you’d be kept away this time. Obviously the Council man Legolas wasn’t able to keep his word for long.”
“You—.” Sabina growled.
Raijin, grabbed Sabina’s hand, and gave a short shake of the head.
Sabina glared at him, before looking back at his mother with such hate he could feel the heat of it radiating off her.
His mother leaned back when she noticed that Sabina, wasn’t amused and had almost leapt over the table. Her brow creased, “But, I didn’t expect your cousin to tell me he’d run into you here.” She pursed her lips here, motioning to the envelope. “So, I decided to come here and cut the string of fate between you and I, permanently.”
Sabina
“How magnanimous of you.” Sabina nearly hissed; her hackles completely raised. The woman across from her, was beautiful but her insides were twisted. She’d barely been able to stop herself from, reaching across the table and slapping her. The only thing holding her back, was the hand settled over hers.
Kito looked at her and said, “Yes, very.” Turning her attention back to Raijin she continued, “This is One Million in cash, the envelope has been charmed to hold every last yen well. Take it and never return.” She said.
After she finished speaking , there was nothing but silence.
Raijin lowered his head, and became so still. Sabina wasn’t sure he was even breathing, meanwhile her patients was gone.
“Fuck this,” She shouted as she stood, jerking her hand from under his. She grabbed up the envelope, and tore it. “You came here to offer us this trash; well he doesn’t need it.” She didn’t even think when she threw it, making sure it slapped in Kito’s face.
Kito, lifted a hand to her face in surprise her silent guard moving to her side. “You—,” she looked aghast at Raijin, “Is this the trash your chose to mate with?” she clicked her tongue, “like with like.”
“Okay.” Sabina had always been very careful with using her magic in the human world, but at this point she didn’t care. She brushed her hair back, her anger reaching fever pitch. The tatami mats pulsed, as she pointed her finger at the woman.
Kito, who hadn’t been aware of Sabina being a witch looked around in alarm. Her hand grabbing the arm of her butler, as he assisted her to stand.
“W-what are you doing?” She demanded.
“Taking out the trash.” Sabina explained, twisting her finger she watched as the woman kimono come alive. “First you need a bag.”
“Wha—Stop.” Kito slapped at the kimono tendrils that reached for her, her hands frantic until she found herself being completely tied up. Her butler attempted to break the ropes of kimono wrapped around her.
Sabina clicked her tongue, “Nope.” Lowering her other hand, she abruptly jerked it up and the butler found himself stuck to the ceiling. Pausing, she met Kito’s angry look with narrowed eyes. “There is a special hell for selfish women like you,” Her pupils expanded, swallowing her eyes. She smirked at the sight of fear in the ogress’s eyes. “But I won’t send you there today instead I’ll send you to the trash heap where you belong.”
She snapped her fingers, with a soft pop the two disappeared.
She staggered a bit when she was hit with a wave of dizziness. A pair of warm hands caught her. Looking up she realized that Raijin must’ve stood up during her rampage.
His eyes didn’t hold any disapproval, instead they held amusement. “What if I wanted to take the money?”
She rolled her eyes. “You would dance in a tutu with Kahlia first.’
“Damn,” He said, his canines bared. His eyes turned cold. “Well, it would seem you’re right.”
“I am.” She allowed him to swoop her up, and smiled her eyes twinkling with mischief. “Was there even a question?”
Raijin
He chuckled, Raijin hadn’t planned on taking the money and he had been so caught up in bad memories he’d seen and heard his mother as if she spoken from the other side of a valley.
She’d looked at him as she had done then. Like he was nothing more than an obstacle to her. Seeing her again had taken him back to the day he’d awoken, alone, cold and hungry.
When Sabina had stood up in his defense he’d felt the chill from his memories evaporate and soon he realized his past no longer mattered.
