The Duchess {OHSHC}

Chapter 8

{Quick heads up, there will be several crossovers in this chapter, but if you don't know the characters it's fine because they're not going to be themselves anyway.}

It was about ten o'clock in the evening by the time my private jet landed in Jamaica.

Honey was curled up into a ball on my lap, wrapped around Usa-chan and sleeping soundly due to the time change, Mori was looking out the window in front of me, his expression having not changed the entire plane ride, and Kyoya sat on the other side of the plane with his bad leg elevated, having either been reading the entire flight or typing away at his laptop.

"Honey darling, we've arrived." I cooed, shaking the adorable teen's shoulder slightly as Mori grabbed everyone's carry on luggage.

The heir of the Haninozuka family growled slightly and lifted his suddenly intense eyes up to meet mine. I matched his glare easily and after a moment he just giggled and gave me that cute little smile of his.

"I've never been to Jamaica before, Ali-chan!" He giggled, grabbing my hand and pulling me out of the plane, Kyoya and Mori following. "It must be nice during the day!"

I gave him my signature puckered smirk and nodded as I lead the three boys towards the limo that would bring us to one of my many beach houses. "Yes, it's beautiful during the day. I especially love the color the sand gets after you spill a snitch's blood onto it." I smiled and breathed in deeply as I though of the last time I did that. The sugar sands of the beach turned as red as rubies, glistening in the sunlight. I exhaled. "Simply lovely...!"

I noticed that everyone sat relatively far away from me during the car ride after that.

A butler greeted us at the doorway, followed by a footman who took our carry-on luggage from Mori and began leading the three to their rooms.

"Lady Duchess." The old butler addressed me in english, bowing with a hand over his heart. "Your guests await you in the main parlor."

I smirked and nodded, handing the man my jacket that I had worn on the plane. "Thank you, Alfred. I'll see to them immediately."

"Of course, Lady Duchess, but I must remind you yet again that my name is Lucas." He said, taking my jacket and folding it over his arm. I chuckled as I began walking away from him and towards the parlor. "Yes, but I'm Batman. Your name must be Alfred... or Sebastian..." I muttered after a moment of thought.

I didn't wait for a reply as I strutted to the large door to the parlor room. I never broke my stride as two servants came and opened the doors for me.

My puckered smirk grew slightly as I took in the familiar faces of my business partners and their body guards. "Gentlemen." I said casually in english, strutting to stand before the couches and chairs they all occupied.

A scalpel was suddenly lobbed at my head, but I only stood still as a blur of blonde and black rushed in front of me.

Honey lowered the dark book he had used to shield my face and scowled at the people still sitting casually. "Nobody hurts Ali-chan!" He exclaimed in Japanese, making almost all of my associates tilt their heads in confusion.

I chuckled again and dismissed the boy before turning to the one that threw the blade. "Your aim needs slight improvement, Law darling."

The dark skinned man smirked to match my own. "It's been a while, Alicia." He remarked, twirling yet another scalpel in his bony tattooed fingers.

My smirk softened into a slight smile as I made my way towards him and sat on his lap. Instantly our lips met and after a few moments of kissing the northerner, the sounds of crutches filled the room, followed by an annoyed grunt I would recognize anywhere as Kyoya's.
