          	Tatsuya raises his katana again. He holds it over his head. I feel the sting of his blade before he moves to strike me.
          	
          	"Chikara o hitei shita omae wa, shinu!"
          	(You will die for denying strength!)
          	
          	A shadow slams into the ground in front of me, thundering as it punches the earth.
          	
          	I fall onto my side from the impact. My body rolls into the crater. The trim of a black cloak ripples in front of me.
          	
          	My eyes widen.
          	
          	The low, resonant voice pulses, creating a ripple over the cold waters that have settled over me.
          	
          	"Omae wa chikara no imi o shiranai."
          	(You don't know the meaning of strength.)
          	
          	The hood turns toward me.
          	
          	~~~
          	
          	His red eyes burn like the setting sun's flame.
          	Strange.
          	I've never noticed irrelevant details.
          	Beauty.
          	Have scales fallen from my fish eyes?
          	
          	He gently murmurs.
          	
          	"You are stronger than I ever could be."
          	
          	~~~
          	GWEN IS FINALLY HERE! AHHHH!

(L’s POV)
          
          I open the door to the cafe, watching the cameras of the tattoo parlor as I move. I feel my gut rotate when Raven takes off her shirt. I flee from the cameras, my eyes widening. The air in my helmet turns hot.
          
          D-did that just happen?
          
          The noise around me fades as I listen to her voice. She sounds nervous.
          
          "I want to surprise my husband...and I want it where no one else can see it."
          
          My foot plants into the ground.
          
          "What do you want the tattoo of?"
          
          "Just one letter."
          
          I steal a glance at the camera, my face heating further 
          at the sight of her bright red blush.
          
          "L."
          
          ~~~
          (Raven’s POV)
          
          I draw in a shaky breath, hearing his loud laugh. More heads turn. I don't care. I'll keep flirting until I hear that delightful laugh. Until I please him.
          
          I WILL COMPLETE MY MISSION, MOTHER CROC!
          
          "I bet you enjoyed that back there! Kissing me..."
          
          "You know, I did..." He mutters lowly.
          
          My face flushes as we sway together. I place my hands on his chest, trembling slightly as I push myself up to look at him.
          
          "S-say that to my face!"
          
          The dark mirror remains locked on me.
          
          "I enjoyed it."
          
          My face throbs from the red.
          
          MOTHERSHIP! MISSION ABORT!
          
          I wheeze, sucking in a breath.
          
          NO! DON'T SURRENDER!
          
          "Throwing back on the helmet like a little coward-!" I exclaim, "Kiss me on the lips next time, Gray!"
          
          His shoulders lock up.
          
          GAHH! TOO STRONG! TOO STRONG!
          
          He grabs my waist lightly, pulling me off him. He loosens before murmuring playfully, looking down at me.
          
          "Venus! We're in public...don't get me excited."
          
          ~~~
          
          AHHH! The finale of sequence 1. Two chapters in one in length (for memory sequence chapters).

(Raven’s POV)
          
          "Please forgive me for not speaking up earlier," He mutters nonchalantly. "I was admiring my wife."
          
          My eyes widen.
          
          "We're on our honeymoon..."
          
          WHAT!
          
          "Oh!" The waitress smirks, giving me a wink that punches me in the gut. "Congratulations!"
          
          She heads to the kitchen inside the tiki hut. I grimace, turning to L. His villainous chuckle makes me want to wring his neck.
          
          "What the heck was that?" I hiss.
          
          "Oh, I'm sorry!" He feigns innocence, standing up, "I forgot to propose!"
          
          He gets down on one knee in the sand. My stomach drops.
          
          "There's no way..." I mutter.
          
          He reaches into his pocket. He pulls out a plastic bag with a small, black leather box.
          
          IT CAN'T BE!
          
          He hums a tune, prying it open and fishing it out.
          
          I'm not ready for this! It's too soon! It's too soon! I mean-
          
          He's hot-! 
          
          I MEAN NICE!
          
          But I just met him yesterday! 
          
          I stop breathing when he looks up at me.
          
          ~
          
          Sneak peek 2:
          
          "So, Gray...What else is on the agenda for our honeymoon, darling?"
          
          It's a miracle! I didn't scream it!
          
          His knees lock.
          
          GAH! Is he blushing? 
          
          I instinctively lean back, the onset of panic weakening my composure.
          
          NO! 
          
          I'm not done yet! I WILL CHARM HIM! I WILL MAKE HIM FEEL NOTICED!
          
          I lean forward again, returning to my knees.
          
          Wait a minute.
          
          These aren't my knees. 
          
          They're still wet from the pool.
          
          My eyes widen.
          
          I quickly push myself up, but my hands slip across his skin and I fall forward. I slide past his knees, peeling back his trunks.
          
          MOTHERBOARD! THIS WAS NOT PART OF THE MISSION! 
          
          I squeeze his thighs, stopping myself from moving any further. His body seizes under me, his muscles tightening. 
          
          I'M GONNA DIE!
          
          ~
          
          Here we go!
