Raising up a Frost Demon Legacy (A DBZ Kuriza story)

The Missing Chapter

(Warning: Contains a poorly written lemon scene. Evacuate the story now if you do not want. This takes place right around Cold Family Merger Part Two some time after Solstice found out about Kuriza's opinion of her.)

Our iron composed ship rattled as it touched ground. The sounds of the engines and motors halting filled the stoic air. Kuriza refused to talk to or look at me ever since he told me I was his mate. 'Is he angry? Or nervous? Why is he ignoring me?' My mind screamed for answers that I may never be provided. 'Maybe he doesn't really love me. Maybe he just made it up so I wouldn't feel as awkward. I can't take his silence much longer.'

"You're driving me up a freaking wall!" I spouted with my fists balled tightly and a growl caught in my throat. My outburst caught Kuriza's attention. He gave me an emotionless stare. "Why are you being so quiet now?! Why are you avoiding me, Kuriza?!"

"Solstice.."

"Did I do something wrong?! Am I not good enough for you?!" I hounded him with tears pricking my eyes. I must have looked so foolish to him. 'Of course he doesn't truly share my feelings. He's the son of Frieza!' I couldn't fend off the maelstrom of emotions and thoughts swirling inside me. I turned away from him after thinking he wouldn't respond to me.

"Sol-"

"Why are you playing me like a flute? Am I just a big game to be won to you? Am I anything?" I continued brokenly, gradually forcing out my stockpiled negativity. Colorless tears streamed out of my eyes and dropped to the ground. I didn't let him see just how weakened and shattered I was.

"Are you quite finished?"

"Yes." I sniffled while wiping the remaining droplets away with my hand and turning to face him.

"Good. As I was saying, Solstice. You aren't a flute nor are you a game. And you certainly aren't just 'anything'." He said monotonously, vanishing from sight then reappearing inches from me. "And you've done all the right things. You've proven your loyalty to me on countless occasions. You've risked hide and soul just to protect me. I thought I made my feelings obvious back on the Saiyan planet."

"So why did you distance yourself from me right after you told me?"

"Because...my father never taught me about love or any of that. Only how to fight, how to maintain an empire, and how to keep my composure in various situations."

"Wait..." It took a few seconds until my brain clicked. "You don't know how to love?"

"That is what I said, isn't it?"

"Aw jeez. Do you want me to..teach you?" I felt a combination of awkwardness, embarrassment, and relief hit me like a brick.

"I suppose so. Do you even know?"

"What? Of course I do! I think." I whispered the last part to myself. "The first part is admitting your feelings, which we sort of did already. The next step involves scenery. Come with me." I held out my hand and Kuriza eyed it unsurely for a few minutes prior to taking it in his own. I led him outside the parked ship and down to the earthy terrain. From there, we flew to our palace grounds.

"Tell me why we're here." Kuriza pondered as I dragged him along to the main bedroom.

"Because scenery adds to the mood. Doesn't the view of the two moons out this giant hole of a window look simply gorgeous?"

"If I wanted to see the moons I would just go back outside and look up." His oblivious response gave me an idea.

"Do you want to go outside then? You know, in the courtyard? Where all the grass is soft and green and the wind is crisp."
