After centuries with his heart closed to those trying to reach it Sugizo felt his strings being tugged at when the boy spoke and he cherished the weird sensation, it had been so long since someone managed to place themselves in there he barely dared to trust the turmoil this one unknowing creature caused in his chest, the way those rapid beats began to slow when his innocent prey was back in his arms were heavenly though. Eiji wasn’t anything like those who had fitted there before and yet the young were already belonged there, as precious as a magnolia flower protected by a cage stronger than steel, it sent his pride soaring with happiness when the one he treasured claimed to return the feeling. The one he had found so recently had become such a natural part of his life he found time without the boy boring, it wasn’t until they were reunited that he realized it though and with no war at that very spot he intended to enjoy their time together, no one could tell in advance how long the fragile peace would last.
Carefully taking every word in he immediately began going through which strategy would work better when dealing with the attacker, whoever it was had to be removed from Eiji’s side so no further harm could be done to the child and he believed he had found the right one when his thoughts ended abruptly, this someone had threatened to kill the boy. “Your pelt?” Heartbeat picking up, eyes changing, claws threatening to break through, his senses on high alert. Yasu was ready for battle. “Stay away from him.” With his voice lowered it caused the stone beneath him to shake by the force yet the tone was soft, almost like the pleas that followed by his special one and when their eyes met the old man’s heart clenched. This might just be the one he had been looking for, a boy, abused by life and the world and still so very special even he couldn’t deny there being something unique about the way they connected.
“Eiji, I’ve been in this world long enough to know how to do things without anyone knowing, no one would ever know I was involved. But if you promise to stay away from him I will not interfere.” It was true that he had favours to collect that could easily eliminate any threat to his company, people that would kill and die for him was that asked without any questions as to why, he could do pretty much anything he wanted to without the world being the wiser and longed to prove it to the one in his arms. Still he would stay down and watch the future come if that was what the little one wanted, the patience he was known for to so many people coming in handy in a situation where his inner beast craved revenge, where his instincts smelt the blood of this new enemy long before it spilled. If the innocence so nicely fitting in his embrace didn’t allow it to happen it couldn’t come to that though, letting his own desires before those of the boy would do more damage than good, he had to focus on Eiji, only Eiji. “You need to realize my dear boy. You only have one true master, one who is fully allowed to control you and make you do things, one who has the power over you.” They could work on it together but in the end there was only one force strong enough to be the leading light of each creature, they had to come to the point where the child could see it too, see it and believe it.
It was almost instant, his acknowledgement of the elder’s request for him to stay away from the other male that had hurt him. Nodding, he replied. “I will.” He had felt the rocks under his legs tremble when the other reacted to what he was telling him but he knew that anger wasn’t addressed at him but at his attacker. “Thank you.” He said giving a teary smile, as Yasuhiro also agreed to not go after the other male.
He knew the elder was old and had acquired much knowledge along the way but he was unable to let the other go fight a fight that was his to fight, if he was but a little stronger. Yasuhiro had managed to sneak up on him and had found a perch in the Were’s heart that had only held one person before, and had since remained empty, and he had expected to remain so if he hadn’t met the elder. It seemed strange for him to have these sort of feelings for someone a lot stronger than him but even so it happened.
At Yasuhiro’s words, the Were frowned and tensed a little. He didn’t like the sound of those words but even so he wanted to let the other explain what he meant. “What do you mean?”
