Kairo Y. POV:

My Name Is Kairo, Orion, Middleton Yamada. It Used To Be Harper. Before I Married My Husband In An Arranged Marriage. Hiroto (You Can Just Call Him Hiro) Yamada, The Sixth Child And Fifth Son Of Hayato And Himari Yamada, Himari Being The CEO Of Several Influential And Strong Businesses. You Can Just Call Me Kai.

I'm Currently Nineteen Years Old. I Married Hiro One Whole Year Ago. But, Before I Can Describe The Wedding To You, I Have To Explain A Whole Lot More. So, I'll Explain First Off, Why I Agreed To An Arranged Marriage. I Was Adopted At The Age Of Six, After Having The Council Take Me Away From My Parents For Their...Lack Of Love For Me. I Was Living In The Orphanage, In England, The West Midlands To Be Specific. My Adoptive Parents Were On Holiday There, Hiding From The Press And Paparazzi. You See, My Mother Was A Very Famous Actress, Every Interested Man And Woman Alive Desperate To Have Her In Their Movie Or Film Or To Make Her Theirs. She Had Been Married Twice, Engaged Once, Proposed To Probably Over A Hundred Times, Ten Or Twenty Affairs And Probably Thousands And Thousands Of Boyfriends, Plus A Few Girlfriends. My Mum Is That Fine That Interested Men Can't Help But Drool All Over Her. Long Thick Shiny Black Hair, Big, Big Chestnut Eyes, Her Perfectly Shaped Nose, The Way She Does Her Makeup Enhancing Her Natural Beauty, And To Top It All Off, Her Amazing Figure. She's Sexy All The Way. My Dad Is A Demon. No Joke. I Am A Dark Angel, Fallen From Heaven After The Opening Of A Wicked Book. So, I Fell, And Became A Dark Angel With A Mortal Lifespan, My Parents Gaining The Same Fate, So It Was All My Fault, Even If I Was Only A Few Months Old. When I Was Three, I Opened A Door From My Wardrobe(I Could Still Do Magic) And Entered The Most Magical Wonderland. A Forest, During The Evening, Castles Visible From Afar, Cottages, Colourful Potions Littering The Ground In Orb-Shaped Glass Bottles. I Had No Friends As A Child, Not Seeing The Point In It And Being Intensely Immersed In Reading, Devouring Every Book To Come My Way. But I Was In Awe To See My Fairy Tales Become Real Before My Eyes, And There He Was, Sitting On The Grass Sipping At A Glittering Crimson Liquid In A Wine Glass, Chains On His Wrists. He Was Tall, Dark Olive Skin, Longish Brown And Bleach Blond Faded Hair, His Scleroses Blacker Then Midnight, One Iris Being Bright Turquoise, The Other Milky White With A Thick, Grotesque Burn On It. His Pupils Were Shaped To Look As If His Eyes Were Being Split. He Had Black And Red Horns Sprouting From His Forehead, Sharp, Pointy And Scary. His Wings Were Matching And Just As Terrifying, His Tail Poking Out. He Wore A Simple Black Button-Up Shirt With The First Few Buttons Undone Along With The Sleeves Rolled Up And Black Trousers, A Dark Red Scarf Hanging From His Neck. A White Cross Shaped Necklace Dangled From His Neck And Matching Earrings Were As Well, His Brown Boots With Silver Heels And Toes Gleaming. And To Finish His Look, A Grey Hat Hung On His Head, Embroidered With Three Black Roses From Largest To Smallest Order And Chain. He Had A Regal And Most Magical Air To Him. I Was Scared And Shivered. He Took A Sip From His Glass, Placed It Back Down On The Bed Of Grass He Was Lounging On And Turned His Head To See Me. I Took A Step Back In Fear. "Oh My. Don't Be Afraid," He Told Me Softly, Snapping His Fingers To Get Rid Of The Chains Pulling Him Down. He Walked Towards Me And Held Out A Hand. "My Name Is Finn Harper. What's Yours, Little Angel?" He Chuckled. "Kaiya," I Mumbled In Half Awe And Half Fear, Barely Audible. "What Was That? Kai? I Like That Name, Sounds Fiery. Not Really A Name For An Angel Exactly," He Laughed, A Wonderful Sound, Matching His Deep And Melodious Voice, A Voice As Magical As His Looks. I Took His Hand And Felt How Rough It Was, Like A Stone, But It Was Warm And His Nails Weren't As Terrible, Though They Still Looked Damaged. He Saw Me Examining His Hands And Said, "I Know, Their Scary. I'm Scary. But I Won't Hurt You Little Dark Angel," He Muttered, Smiling At Me With His Pointy Teeth, White As My Hair. When I Was Born, My Hair Used To Be Raven Black, My Eyes Coral. When My Family Fell And Landed On Earth, My Dark Tresses Turned Institutional White And My Orange Eyes Turned Turquoise, My Pentagram Shaped Pupils Teal. I Found Great Comfort In Him, He Became Just Like A Big Brother. I Was Just A Little Girl, And I Had A Younger Sister Who I Hated. I Gained A Friend, A Big Brother Best Friend Forever. I Loved Him To Pieces, And We Had Fun In That Wonderland Of My Wardrobe. Eventually, The Council Saw What My Parents Were Doing To Me When I Got Home And Removed Me From My Home, So I Was Placed In An Orphanage. I Wasn't An Orphan. But I Wasn't Wanted. Luckily, I Was Able To Keep All My Things, And I Concealed My Powers As Much As I Could. They Did Question My Strange Hair And Eyes, But I Said They Were Both Genetic Mutations From An Overused Gene In My Body. It Worked. I Stayed In A Dull, Grey Room. The Minute I Was Left Alone, I Got Up From The Grease Covered Bed And Opened The Empty Oak Wardrobe And Immediately Headed Into 'Wonderland'. I Ran Through The Forest And Saw Finn Sitting At A Pink Table With A Chair Made From Smoke And Ashes. He Smiled As He Saw Me Running Towards Him And Pulled Me Onto His Lap. "How's My Dark Angel Then?" He Asked Me, Tickling Me. "Finn. I'm Scared," I Mumbled, Bursting Into Tears. His Face Fell When He Saw Me Cry And He Hugged Me Tight, Patting My Pigtails And Asking What Was Wrong And What Had Happened. I Told Him Every Last Bit. At The End Of My Very Long Story, He Hugged Me Tightly, Put Me Down And Told Me Very Carefully And Very Slowly "Do Not Do Anything. Do Not Allow Yourself To Be A Target, Do Not Be Rude, But Don't Be An Easy Target For Somebody To Adopt You Or Foster You. I Promise, In A Few Days, I Will Come To Find You And I Will Legally Make You My Daughter Kaiya A. I Swear. But, If You Don't Want Me As Your Father, I Understand, I Can Find You Someone Better Than Me-," I Cut Off The Rest Of His Words, So Happy He Loved Me Just As Much As I Loved Him. I Did Exactly As He Told Me To, Quietly Behaved But I Wasn't Going To Become A Target. I Stayed There Only Two Days, The Longest Two Days Of My Life. I Didn't Unpack Anything. I Laid On My Grimy Bed, Staring At The Leaking Ceiling When The Matron, Miss Grey, Knocked At My Door And Entered Before I Could Reply. "Kaiya. We Have Found You Suitable Parents. They Have Come To Adopt You, Saying That They Are Your Godparents?" She Said In Her Dull Voice, So Monotone That It Took Me A Few Seconds To Realise She Was Ordering Me And Both Asking Me A Question. I Followed Her, And I Saw Finn, No Horns, Wings Or Tail But Smiling At Me Broadly In His Normal Clothes And A Leather Jacket Too. His Scleroses Were Normal Too. The Woman Sitting Next To Him Was The Kirianna Blair, The Most Famous Actress Of All Time. I Had Seen Her In Quite A Lot Of Movies Even At Such A Young Age, And My Jaw Dropped To See Her Sitting Right Before My Eyes. I Ran Into Finn's Arms; His Wonderful Cologne Masked All My Fears And He Was So Wonderfully Real. "Hello Kaiya. My Name's Kirianna Blair, And I Hope That Soon...You'll See Me As Your Mother," She Said To Me, Smiling At Me Like The Kindest Person On Earth. I Hugged Her Too. She Was Ever So Pretty In Person. That Day May Have Been The Happiest Day Of My Life. I Packed All My Stuff And Put Them In The Boot Of Finn's Bright Cobalt Jeep. I Sat At The Back With Kira, Chatting Away To Her About Lots Of Things, Asking About What It Was Like Being Famous. "So...If You Two Are My Parents Now, Does That Mean Your A Couple?" I Asked, Giggling. Their Faces Turned Ridiculously Red. "Now, Now Kaiya, You Know Kira Is...Unavailable For Me," Finn Mumbled, Clearly Flustered. They Were High School Sweethearts, And Kira Had Recently Just Broken Off An Engagement. They Were 'Close Friends'; I Didn't Fall For It. We Took A Plane All The Way To Los Angeles, California, America. I Had Never Been In A Plane Before And The Experience...I Can Barely Remember, I Fell Asleep In Kira's Lap The Whole Flight. It Was Midnight By The Time The Plane Landed. Supposedly, We Caught A Taxi All The Way Home. The Next Day I Woke Up In A King Sized Bed, Kira Asleep Next To Me, Curled Up Like A Chinchilla. I Was Wearing My Black T-shirt And Star Patterned Trousers. Kira Was In Her Underwear And A Thin Silk Cardigan Wrapped Around Her. My Waist Length White Hair Was Loose And Wavy. She Woke Up And Pulled Me Close For A Cuddle, And I Breathed In Her Wonderful Lemony, Flower Scent. Kira Had Known About Finn's True Form, As A Demon Seer Who Left In A Haste To Make His Fortune On Earth And In Dreams. Doing So Angered Those Above Him And Cursed Him With A Mortal Life Span, Just Like Me, But He Escaped Before Their Wrath Could Obliterate Him. I Grew Up With Finn In LA, Happy To Have Him As My Father. Kira Wasn't Always There, Being The Modern Marilyn Monroe Of Our Time, But She Always Made Sure To See Me Three Times A Week, And If She Missed A Visit She'd Send Me Many Presents. You Probably Think That I'm A Bit Of A Spoiled Snob, But I Never Cared About The Fame Or The Fortune All That Much. When I Was Eleven, To Put It Simply, I Stopped Being Their Daughter And Became Their Son (I Refused To Stay On Testosterone For More Then Two Years, Meaning I Can Have My Own Kids), And Being From California, They Were Very Accepting. Along With This, On July 27th, Their Anniversary For Dating, Finn Proposed To Kira After Last Year They Once Again Rekindled Their High School Romance. He Had Been Waiting For Her For Years, How Cute Is That? I Always Wished For A Relationship Like That. July 27th Was Always Their Day. When I Was A Kid, That Was The Only Time When Finn Would Answer My Bedtime Request Of: "Tell Me A Story About You And Mum Together!". I Treasured Those Stories, Writing Them Down In Detail In My Various Diaries Over The Years. I Had To Wait A Whole Year For The Wedding, Again On July 27th. All Of My Mum And Dad's Friends, Who Were Basically Aunties And Uncles To Me Came. Aunt Crystal, Serena, Summer, Uncle Aiden, Uncle Keith (My Mum's Actual Twin Brother), And Uncle Oscar. Zach, Alex And Travis, My Dad's Friends Came. Lilith, My Dad's Apprentice For His Dress Designing Company, Came Too. My Parents Were Popular; I, In Contrast, Can't Say Hello Without Blushing Bright Red. I Hate That It's So Obvious When I Blush, Despite My Sienna Brown Coloured Skin. The Wedding Was Amazing, The Vows, Kira's Dress, The Theme (Royal Blue, White And Gold), Just Everything. For Two Weeks, I Stayed With Keith And Aiden With Their Foster Son, Matthew, Who Was Around My Age. I Was Very Shy, Quiet And Well-Behaved Enough. I Cut My Hair And Wore A Binder To Keep My Chest Flat Only A Few Days Before The Wedding And Chose My New Name, No Longer Was I Kaiya Artemis Middleton Harper, I Was Kairo Orion Middleton Harper. The Kairo Orion Middleton Harper, The One And Only. And I'm Pleased To Say That All The People Who Mattered Accepted Me, The Thing That Kept Me The Happiest, Along With Being Treated As If I Was Kira And Finn's Real Child, Not Left Out Because I Was Adopted. It Was Perfect...Removing School From The Equation At Least. I Was A Freak, An Outcast. I Stopped Bothering To Even Try Making Friends. I Couldn't Even Fit In With The Other Freaks And Outcasts. If Nevermore Academy Existed, I Would Still Stand Out Terribly, Because Unlike Wednesday, I Am Not Charming, Attractive Or Anything Appealing Really. I Have The Potential, But I'm Simply, Too Shy. I Longed For At Least Once Romance, Failing At This At A Whole New Level. Luckily, I Was Quite Clever, Graduated As A Valedictorian And Won A Scholarship To Princeton, Which Made My Parents So Happy. The Weirdest Thing About Them, They Always Tell Me That I'm Their Real Son, They Treat Me Like This, But They've Never Yelled Or Hurt Me My Whole Life. Another Thing I Got At Age Thirteen: A Little Brother. His Name's Lance, After Somebody From Dad's Childhood. They've Done The Same For Him, And Unlike The Sister I Had Before, I've Never Been Jealous Of Him, Even Though I Get Jealous Easily And Sometimes Get Slightly Desperate For Attention. I Love My Extended Family To Pieces And Can't Imagine Being Without Them. When I Was Eighteen, I Was Studying At Princeton For Story Writing, Directing, Script-writing, Editing, Anything To Do With Directing Films, As I Wanted To Pursue A Career As A Director. I Was Home For Christmas Break In LA, When I Just Wanted A Relationship So Desperately, Feeling So Alone. But I Could Somehow Benefit My Parents, Who Gave Me So Much. My Father Was An Influential Artist, And He Was Known For His Dress Designing Shop Chain, Jewel Collections, Selling Prom Dresses, Weddings Dresses, You Name It, He'll Have It. He Ran Several Other Successful Cosmetic Businesses, Hair Products, Makeup, Etc. Remember This, It Isn't Important Now, But It Will Be Later. So, I Went Into The Living Room And Had An Entire Conversation With Them. I Told Them That If They Wanted To Put Me In An Arranged Marriage, I'd Be Fine With It As Long As I Got To Start A Family. So, My Parents Decided To Do As I Wished, Though He Told Me I Could Leave Whenever I Wished, And They Were Going To Make Sure This Guy Would Be Perfect For Their Darling Dark Angel...
