Casper's P.O.V.

I was sitting by my mistress's side, purring as she pet me. Reading to me like how she used to when it was just her and I.
The only difference is that HE is here. The one that I despise for stealing her. Yet, I can't do anything about it. I must not let them know I harbor feelings for Olivia. Her and that man are married and I am merely the pet cat. Also, she is pregnant with his child. I could never do anything to hurt her or a kid.
"Casper" Olivia said sweetly. I raised my head, looking up at her. She is so sweet and beautiful. Why? Why did I not say anything earlier? Why did I let this all happen?
"I love you." She said. My ears perked up and I nodded. Yet, I knew, when she says she loves me, it's the friend zone way. So, even though I am happy she cares about me, I want her to love me even more. I want to kiss her like how Ace is kissing her right now in front of me.
I get up and walk away, ignoring Olivia's calls. I will be back later but right now I need some time alone.
I was walking around and then I realized it was nighttime. I decided to go back home and when I was walking out a saw a cloaked man entering the forest. Right away I knew it was Ace and I know that he must be working for that other magical dude. Doing evil things. For because of him things are in chaos. Here and the real world. Yet Olivia is not aware. Blinded.
Or maybe she does know but turns a blind eye to what is happening around her. After every night that man leaves looking like that, on the T.V. t there are always cases of artifacts missing and stories of powerful figures and guards missing. Yet signs of a murder having taken place.
Then now, on the news, there are even people making claims that Olivia is part of this. I hate it. What is making Olivia not notice this?! Are people keeping this a secret from here and hiding it so cleverly that she is not aware? Why does she stay with Ace?! He does not learn a damn thing! He keeps killing! This is unfair! So unfair!
I walk inside, feeling the blood in me boil. How many lies are going to be told? What secrets are going on around here? Who is trustworthy?
My mind was spinning with thoughts as I arrived at Olivia's room. She was already sleeping soundly and I felt my heart at ease by looking at her.
Jumping onto the bed I sat up, looking down at my mistress. At Olivia. Turning human I smiled down at her. Then said,
"Nee nee, goshuujin-Sama, guess what?" I said, yet she kept sleeping. Despite knowing the face that she is a heavy sleeper I kept on talking.
"Aishiteru(I love you). I've always loved you. Even when I say I only see you as a friend again. But I still love you. I can't help it. Hehe. I know it will only hurt me even more loving you yet I can never forget about you or how I feel. Yes I am very happy that you are around me. It's just I can't help but feel the other way. Hehe. I'm such a idiot cat." I said with a light hearted chuckle, my heart aching. Then, I leaned down and kissed her. Her lips so soft. When I pulled away I couldn't but kiss her again and again, losing myself for who knows how long. During the time I was filled with happiness, ignoring reality as I escaped into what felt like a dream.
When I pulled away, I felt reality hit me and shame hit me. I did it again. I did something that I knew would be bad. I looked around, seeing if Ace as around. He wasn't and that was a bit of relief. If he saw who knows what could of happened. Yet, I did something that Olivia would not approve of and if she wakes up to find out, life is over. That is how I feel. I feel so much oppression and guilt. Like a ball of lead in my chest.
I got up and ran out. Not knowing what my actions could of caused. So, I ran out, deep into the woods. I must run away.

Ace's P.O.V.

I am out on another mission for Grey. He said in my head to do this. To kill the people at a nearby Japanese religious shrine and retrieve something inside it. I don't want to do this yet he said that he'd do something awful to Olivia and our child if I don't. I can't let that happen. I promised to protect them and I will keep to my word. Also, I can't lose Olivia and our unborn child.
That filthy bastard. Hurting the ones I love. He sure plays dirty when it comes to games.
I reached the temple and then continued to press on, unnoticed as I moved quickly & quietly. I saw there were a couple of guards and they were armed.
Drawing my sword I ambushed them, killing two instantly. The others panicked and started to cry for back up. I smiled behind my mask & under my hood. Killing many with ease. Yet, more and more of the cops came, having suspected this would be where I would strike next.
In the midst of the fight, I heard some people order others to help lead the religious leaders to safety. I killed three people in one strike as I ran up the stone stairs up to them. Just then I felt a sharp pain in my chest and my footing slipped, causing me to land on my stomach.
I winced the pain still there. Yet I can't fail this mission. Bearing with the pain in my chest I picked myself up & ran. Instead of going after the religious leaders first I broke into the shrine and looked for what the artifact might be. In the center of the shrine there was a fancy old box. I ran towards it, breaking everything that was guarding it and grabbed it, putting it inside my satchel.
The pain in my chest was worsening and I gritted my teeth, sweat trailing down my body. Yet I clutched my sword and turned to see I was surrounded, guns pointed at me. I stood still as my eyes scanned around the room from behind my mask. I was surrounded so there was only one option. Just run right through. Haaaa. I wanted to avoid getting injured or else I know Olivia will be worried.
She has enough to deal with and this is my own problem.
The officers were telling me to halt and drop my weapon, their guns still raised against me. I smirked and ran straight through. Gun shots resounded all through out and I tried to avoid them.
I reached the entrance and killed the cops blocking the entrance. Yet, I felt a paid in the back of my shoulder and left leg. Yet I kept going, my job not done yet. I ran to where those religious leaders escaped, finding them eventually. The four guards were easy to kill and I finally killed the two people I was after.
Running into the forest, I finally let pain come to me. Collapsing, I panted, a hand over my chest where it hurt the most. I have no idea what is happening. What does this mean?
Just then I heard a cold laugh and I gritted my teeth, loathing the person who owns that laugh.
Forcing myself to look up, I saw Grey standing above me. He smiled with a pipe in hand.
"I see you are just breaking down aren't you? Oh well. Everything breaks eventually."
"Hehe. I'm not done just yet." I said, forcing it out.
"Haha. Maybe not. But do you know wat is wrong with you?"
"Tch. Who says I don't?"
"I am merely asking. No need to get snappy. Well, do you know where your "wife" is?"
"Don't your fucking dare. I did what you want and I have been doing what you want."
"Yea yea. I know. But, are you aware of WHO might be with your wife?"
"What are you..." Just then Grey showed me a crystal ball and I saw Casper on top of Olivia who was sleeping. Yet he was kissing her. I felt my chest hurt even more and I gripped it. Yet at the same time my face was scrunched up with anger because of that fucking cat.
"Haha. I see what it is. A heartbreak. But how? How are you feeling that with no heart. For your heart is right here in my hand." Grey said with a evil grin as he showed a ice crystal ball, a small heart beating inside it.
I tried to get it back but as I got up the pain got to me and I collapsed again. Grey laughed, amused by this as he put my heart away and crystal ball away.
Leaning down he grabbed my satchel and took out the box, smiling.
"Good job. Of course it took you a long to time to retrieve this tool. Yet I have a future pawn that will soon replace you. She will be a excellent one and surpassing you. Anyway, I will take my leave." Just as Grey turned around I gripped his ankle, panting.
"What is it now?"
"What are you going to do? What is that thing?"
"Oh? This? It's a sphere and it has my old powers. The gods stripped me of them and had it sealed into four spheres. This is the third one you have obtained for me. Now, the fourth one is under the place where you live. So I plan on having you obtain that in the future. Now, what I am going to do? I am not answering that." Grey said with a evil smirk. I snarled at him while he merely chuckled.
"Well, I have another person to meet up with. Thank you for your cooperation." Grey kicked me in the stomach and threw me back causing me to slam into a tree having me to let go of his ankle. I grunted as I propped myself up.
"Haha. This is why you're my favorite pawn. No matter how worn out you are you still stand. I will be interested in seeing what happens next. Good day." Grey said as he turned and teleported away, leaving me where I was.
Slowly the pain in my chest faded and I stood up, stumbling a bit. Shaking it off I looked around and sighed as I started to walk around knowing I'd find my way back eventually.
