Prohibited Love

Chapter 17

"E-excuse me?! Your peasant!?" Yuzu exclaimed as she stepped back
"If you don't want me to throw you in the dungeon then shut your mouth and apologize to my best friend Himeko" Mei said sternly
"I-I'm not going to apologize to that trash!" Yuzu said
"Meimei!" Himeko fake cried
"Apologize. Now" Mei said sternly as she glared at her. Yuzu's eyes widen and trembled feeling terrified
Sh-she is so scary...
"S-sure" Yuzu said and walked up to the Momokino
Wh-what am I doing? Am I really obeying her? Urgh...
"Do it the right way" Mei said as she walked up to her and grabbed her shoulder. She pressed down forcing her to get on her knees
"Wh-what? Y-you want me to apologize l-like this?" Yuzu asked as she trembled
"Yes. Now" Mei said giving her a glare. Yuzu sighed and looked down
"I'm really sorry Princess Momokino for my terrible behavior and for calling you names" Yuzu said
"Hmmm? I guess I could accept your apology. Okay but I get to keep your cousin. She now belongs to me along with my other treasures" Himeko said
"What? Other treasures?" Yuzu asked
"Why did you claim her for?" Harumin asked
"Because she is too pretty to be a peasant. I really haven't seen anyone this beautiful before...not even the boys I've met are this pretty. That's why I made her mine. I don't want anyone else to have her" Himeko said
"That makes no sense at all..." Harumin said
"So you're saying that you like Shai?" Yuzu asked
"Wh-what?! N-no! I-I just want to keep her because she is pretty" Himeko said as she blushed a little
I-I don't like her l-like that...right? I-it's impossible to be with a girl...I mean...she looks like the prince charming in my story. Blue eyes...white hair...a beautiful body
"Hey you okay there?" Harumin asked. Himeko jumped and shook her head
"Y-yeah I was just thinking" Himeko said
"May I stand up now?" Yuzu asked
"Sure" Mei said and walked back to the couch. Yuzu only looked up at Shai and Shai only smiled at her
"How are you calm?" Yuzu asked
"Did I give you permission to speak?" Mei asked as she opened her book to start reading
"Wh-what? What do you mean permission? I have to-"
"Do you want to be thrown in the dungeon?" Mei asked
"N-no but-"
"Then shut up before I throw you in there peasant" Mei hissed which made Yuzu keep her mouth shut
"Come on Aihara. You're being a little too harsh on my friend" Harumin said as she wrapped an arm around Yuzu
"No I'm not. She was being annoying and giving me a headache with all that yelling" Mei said
"Well...if you want I can take her out for a walk and leave you be" Harumin said
"Sure whatever..." Mei said
"Great. Let's go" Harumin said as she pulled Yuzu
"W-wait what about Shai?" Yuzu asked
"Don't worry about her. Momokino-san wi be taking care of her" Harumin said
"B-but-"
"Yuzu please don't worry about me. I'm okay" Shai said giving her a smile
"You sure?" Yuzu asked
"Yes" Shai said and nodded
"O-okay but I'll be back" Yuzu said and Harumin took her out of the room then closed the door
"Okogi..." Himeko said as she stood up
"Y-yes princess?" Shai asked nervously
D-did I do something wrong? Oh no! She is going to punish me!
"Chair. Now" Himeko said as she kicked her chair down. Shai trembled and got on all fours. Himeko smiled and sat down on Shai's back. Shai trembled a little but remained firm
"E-excuse me princess but h-how long do I have to st-stay like this?" Shai asked
"Do chairs talk?" Himeko asked sternly. Shai closed her mouth and whimpered softly. Himeko giggled softly and took a sip of her tea
Cute
Meanwhile with the Taniguchi and the Okogi
"Thank you for getting me out of there" Yuzu said
"Next time don't talk back to them" Harumin said
"Yeah I'll try. Are they always like that?" Yuzu asked
"Hmmm not really. They only act like that whenever someone is annoying them or bothering them" Harumin said
"And are you friends with them?" Yuzu asked
"Pfft! Friends? Of course not" Harumin said
"Eh? But I thought the three of you were friends" Yuzu said
"Well...I guess we kinda are and kinda not. It's just that I don't get along with them and they piss me off so much. Especially Momokino-san...she is so spoiled like her mother. She always cries for everything and throws a tantrum whenever she doesn't get what she wants. I'm surprised she decided to have a person instead of jewelry or any accessories" Harumim said
She is so annoying...I don't know why her parents spoil her so much. She needs to be taught a lesson...
"What about the Aihara princess? She seems calm...and a little scary" Yuzu said shivering a bit
Just talking about her gives me the shivers...
"Oh Mei? Well...she is really cold and quiet. She sorta reminds me of my sister but my sister isn't always mean. She only acts like that because father wants her to become a strong leader" Harumin said
"Why did she take Matsuri away? Does she want to kill her?" Yuzu asked
"That's something I don't know. Maybe it has something to do when she was little..." Harumin said
"Hm? What do you mean?" Yuzu asked
"Oh back when I was a kid, my sister got kidnapped. She told us her story and said that the vampires were going to attack her but she showed up" Harumin asked
"Who?" Yuzu asked
"I guess that Matsuri girl? She said that the vampire saved her and took good care of her. Well...until something happened to her. Mitsuko forgot what happened to her that night and was found by humans. They told us a vampire attacked her because of her wound in her neck. I was really worried about her and I...thought she was going to die but thankfully she woke up. Our people began to admire my sister and talk about her. They kinda thought of her as a hero or something because no kid has ever survived out alone in the world. But my sister...didn't seem to be happy. She didn't care if they admired her or loved her...all she did was train alone. She didn't even want to play with the other kids..." Harumin said
"Was she sad?" Yuzu asked
"I guess you could say that. The only friend she has right now is Maruta and she is really sweet" Harumin said
"Oh..." Yuzu said
So...was she saved by Matsuri when she was little? But why did she take her?
Yuzu paused as her stomach started growling
"O-oh uhm..." Yuzu said as she blushed in embarrassment
"Have you eaten anything?" Harumin asked
"N-no..." Yuzu said
"Come with me. Let's get you something to eat" Harumin said and held her hand
"U-uh...y-you sure?" Yuzu asked
"Of course. Now let's go" Harumim said taking Yuzu to the kitchen

"The Princess is here..."
"Oh my..."
"She looks so beautiful"
"She's so pretty"
"She's so amazing..."
"I wish I were with her..."
Mitsuko groaned as she walked by the villagers with Maruta
"Micchan is everything okay?" Maruta asked
"Yeah...it's just everyone here is annoying" Mitsuko said
"I guess that's why you stayed inside your room" Maruta said
"Yes...to stay away from all these people" Mitsuko said. The two girls stopped by to buy a few sweets. Mitsuko looked at the cookies covered in chocolate and felt her heart ache
Flashback
The two vampires were in the princess's room while taking care of the little Taniguchi girl
"I-is Onee-chan coming back?" Mitsuko asked as she whimpered
"She will soon okay? You just need to relax" Nitski said
"Sh-she didn't leave me...r-right?" Mitsuko asked
"Of course not. She didn't leave you" Juhin said. Mitsuko clenched the blanket tightly as her heart began to throb
"I-it's hurting so much..." Mitsuko said. Suddenly the young vampire got to the window
"She's here" Juhin said and opened the window letting Matsuri inside
"Mitsuko-chan! Look what I got!" Matsuri said
"Onee-chan! You're back!" Mitsuko said and ran up to her. Matsuri hugged her back and carried her
"I-I missed you..." Mitsuko whimpered
"Awww Mitsuko" Matsuri said and kissed her cheek softly
"Finally you're back. I was getting bored just listening to Juhin talk and talk" Nitski said
"You could've just left if you wanted to. You didn't have to stay" Juhin said and closed the book as he stood up from the bed
"Thanks again guys" Matsuri said as she smiled
"You're welcome" Juhin said
"Next time let me take care of her" Nitski said
"No. You'll just talk about sex" Matsuri said
"What's sex?" Mitsuko asked
"Sex is-"
"Nothing! Hahaha! Nothing important Mitsuko. Now get the fuck out you two" Matsuri said
"Sure" Juhin said
"Night" Nitski said. The two Mizusawas left the room and Matsuri sat down on the bed with Mitsuko in her arms
"Did you get the cookies?" Mitsuko asked as she looked at Matsuri
"Of course. Are these the ones you wanted?" Matsuri asked as she held out a bag full of cookies. Mitsuko's mouth drooled and grabbed them
"Yes! Thank you Onee-chan!" Mitsuko said
"Keep your voice down Mitsuko" Matsuri whispered and held her closely
"S-sorry Onee-chan" Mitsuko said and smiled. Matsuri kissed her head softly and smiled softly
'She is so cute...'
Mitsuko opened the bag and pulled out a chocolate cookie
"Chocolate..." Mitsuko whispered before shoving it all in her mouth
"Woah woah! Easy" Matsuri said as she pulled the bag away from her. Mitsuko chewed the cookie and gulped it down
"Damn...you really like chocolate. Hmm? Maybe one cookie per day" Matsuri said
"What? B-but I want cookie" Mitsuko whimpered
"You already ate one cookie. It's too much sugar for you" Matsuri said and kissed her lips. Mitsuko blushed deeply as she covered her face
"If you want I can kiss you all day" Matsuri whispered
"R-really?" Mitsuko asked as she looked at her
"W-wait...you w-want that?" Matsuri asked as her face redden
'I was just joking!'
"I-I want...k-kiss" Mitsuko said uncovering her face. Matsuri blushed deeply and giggled softly
"Okay" Matsuri said leaving the bag of cookies aside and held Mitsuko closely. Mitsuko blushed and wrapped her arms around her neck. Matsuri leaned in and kissed her softly. Mitsuko kissed her back and held her closely
'So pretty'
End Of Flashback
"Uhm...Micchan?" Maruta asked making Mitsuko snap back to reality
"Wh-what?" Mitsuko asked
"Are you okay? You zoned out for a moment" Maruta said
"Y-yeah I'm fine. I-I was just thinking about something" Mitsuko said
"Good afternoon princess. Do you need anything?" The man asked
"A bag of cookies please" Mitsuko said
"Of course princess" The man said and handed her the bag of cookies. Mitsuko took the bag and paid the man
"Thank you princess. Hope you have a good day" The man said as he smiled
"You too" Mitsuko said before she left. Maruta followed Mitsuko and the two walked away
"Hey Micchan. Sorry for asking but...what happened to you back there? You were completely spaced out. Was it something about your father and his plan?" Maruta asked
"No...it's nothing important. I rather not think about it..." Mitsuko said and felt her heart throb. She trembled a bit and shook her head slightly
I-it's hurting so much...r-really bad...i-is it because...
"Micchan?" Maruta asked. Mitsuko looked down and clenched her chest tightly
It...h-hurts so bad...
"M-maruta...I...sorry but I have to go back" Mitsuko said as she turned and walked away
"H-huh? Wait Micchan" Maruta said. Mitsuko only felt her heart throb again and trembled slightly
I-I have to go back! I-I need...n-need to be in her arms again!
"Agh! Hey! Watch it!"
Mitsuko only groaned a bit and looked up
Great...I just had to bump into this bitch
"Oh it's the crybaby" A girl said as she laughed. Mitsuko only glared at the girl in front of her along with her two other friends
"...Khyra..." Mitsuko mumbled
