Yes My King

Chapter 15

~Atem's POV~

"Yugi what's wrong?" He's obviously upset but he ran out of the room without me saying anything first.

"Why was he there?" His broken voice asked, muffled by his knees as he didn't part from the ball form he was taking off.

"He can in after you left, he was going on about why I chose you instead of him." He looked up at me and I could see he had been crying because his eyes were red and his face was a little puffy.

"Why were you kissing!" He screamed, I was taken aback because Yugi has never screamed at me or in general. I've never heard his voice raise that high.

"He pushed me down." I didn't know exactly how to explain it to Yugi. I didn't want him to run away again. I wanted to comfort him but I felt like he was going to push me away.

"Did you like it?...Was he better than me?" He lowered his voice again but it was shaggy, making it sound like he was about to cry again.

"Of course not, no one is better than you." I took me chances and pulled him into my chest. He didn't fight it but he didn't hug me back.

"I don't know what he was thinking but he's going to get punished." Thinking about him made my blood boil but I needed to start calm for Yugi.

I look down as him in my arms, he looked oh so fragile and I wanted to protect him with everything I had.

"I could never feel anything if it wasn't with my Aibou." I gently kissed the top of his head and he finally looked up at me.

His eyes were still glossy but he was not longer crying. He still sniffed once in a while but other than that I think he was calming down.

"So nothing happened?" He asked hesitantly.

"Of course not, I would never do something like that, especially when I have you." I pulled him closer to my chest and he finally hugged me back.

"I over reacted didn't I? I'm sorry." He laid his chest of on chest and out one hand next to his head.

"No need for apologizes, now come we have someone to deal with." I stood up and help pull him to his feet.

"We?" He looked at me with a tilted head.

"Well of course, I mean you are my personal servant so you go where I go." He gave me a weak smile and nodded. I grabbed his hand and we walked out of the trees together.

It was darker than when we walked in and no body was in the garden, the pathway lights now turned on and so was the fountain.

We walked out of the garden and started heading towards the throne room. I left go of Yugi's hand because I was gonna walk in first.

"When we go in, stay close to me."

I pushed open the doors and the room was completely empty except for two guards, I recognize one as Isaac, and Aoba who had his head bowed and arms tied behind his back.

The guards knelt before me as they saw me approaching my throne. Aoba noticed the movement of the guards and the sound of us coming in so he looked up.

I sat down and Yugi got on his knees on the ground next to my feet. I reached for him to put his head on my lap and he did, putting his arms up onto my lap at well.

I kept my hands in Yugi's hair and looked up at Aoba who had jealousy and despair in his eyes, seeing how I was affectionate towards Yugi.

"Aoba, I hope you know why you're here." My voice was lower than it usually was, my gaze was hard as I stared down at the boy who was still forcefully on his knees.
