6 months later:

Emmy stands in front of  her ancestor's tombs. She spent the last three hours cleaning it and had just placed flowers, a whole feast of food and several jars of wine in front of the tablets.  She lit the insenses and kowtowed towards them three times before the monks started hitting a gong as they chanted.

Emmy sat in front of the tablets and thought back to the day that Ceco was under attack.  The day she thought she would die. Just the thought of her leaving her men, made her scared of never seeing them again.  Which made her greedy to live.

When she woke up the next day, Seoras was sitting by her side and held her hands tightly.  She knew he was worried for them, but it was hard for him to express it to them.

Emmy reached out and held him close to her.  He immediately laid down next to her as she told him what happened to her. 

"The Souls of Amaratu.  What are they?" Emmy asked.  It was because of the Souls that she survived. 

"The Souls of Amaratu are the souls of demons.  When they were alive, they were the wives of Medrud Amaratu, The Dark.  Ruler of the shadow world. One wife was a mage. The other was a wizard.  When they died protecting Medrud, The Dark, he was so sad that he encased their souls inside an enchanted emerald stone to one day be with them again." Seoras told Emmy.  "When I was ten years old, traveling with my Master. I wasn't being careful and fell into an illusioned cave. Inside of that cave I went through trials and tribulations.  And although I passed. I was injured, bleeding and almost dead. And yet, I was determined to leave the cave. At the end of the tests, I came to a hidden cave. Inside was an onyx stone.  The moment I reached out and touched it, I became one with it. Medrud, became apart of me. The only condition he had was to find his wives and bring them to life again so he could be with them. I accepted his conditions. He guided me and helped me grow as a mage and a wizard." 

"A mage and a wizard?"  Emmy asked.

"Medrud was a wizard, while I am a mage.  We combined our powers and magic together to become a Warlock."  Seoras told her. "That's what you are. A warlock."

"Why did you choose only me?  You could have chosen another woman and placed the other stone inside of her.  Why did you put both inside me?" Emmy asked.

"Because."  Seoras said as he hugged her tighter to his body.  "The moment I met you, I realized how much you wanted to live.  However you never begged me for your life. I thought you were interesting. At that time, I just thought I would give you the Souls of Amaratu, just so I can keep my word to Medrud.  I thought maybe I would help you with your magic and part ways after you learned to control your magic."

Seoras kissed Emmy's lips lightly before continuing.

"I never thought I would fall so much in love with you.  Never thought how much you would mean to me. To Gengrick.  To Dominic. It just so happened that we fell in love with each other.  Slowly, but surely. It was our fate to come together and be as one."

Seoras kissed Emmy again and cupped her cheek as he stared down at her. 

"Do you regret it?" 

"Never."  Emmy whispered. 

"Never?" 

"Never."  Emmy said with conviction. 
Seoras smiled sweetly at her and kissed her again.  "Neither do I. I will never regret meeting you. Capturing you and bring you with me." 

"You mean kidnapping me?"  Emmy teased him as she kissed his chin. 

"It was the best decision of my life."  Seoras told her.

"Em."  Emmy agreed. 

"Emmy."  Seoras said softly as he kissed her nose. 

"Hmm?"  Emmy sighed softly.  Her body began reacting to Seoras's soft kisses and hard body. 

"Let's get married."   Seoras asked her. "With Gengrick and Dominic.  Let's have a hand tying ceremony and declare our love to everyone." 

Emmy closed her eyes as tears began to threaten to spill out. 

"Okay."  She agreed quickly as she tried to control her emotions. 

"Okay."  Gengrick said from the side. 

"Okay." Dominic said as his head popped up from beside Gengrick. 

Emmy giggled for the first time in a long time at the situation.  She giggled like a girl who was carefree.

~~~~~

When the monks stopped hitting the gong Emmy sat up and kowtowed three more times.  She prayed her Grandfather and Mother was at peace. She prayed for her ancestors. She prayed they will watch over her. 

When she exited the tomb, Arashi stood under the 1000 year old tree waiting for her.  Arashi awkwardly waved his hand to say hello to her. And Emmy waved her hand back.

The wind blew the wooden plaques that were tied on to the 1000 year old tree.  It was said that if the wish a person wrote on the wooden plaque comes true, it will hang on the 1000 year old tree for 1000 years.  If it wasn't meant to be, the plaque will fall to the ground.

"Hello."  Arashi said as he straightened up.

"How have you been?"  Emmy asked as she stopped in front of him. 

"I've been better."  Arashi told her trufully.  "I've been thinking a lot." 

"Have you? About what?"  Emmy asked.

"You. Me.  The memories we shared when we were young.  Why you disappeared. What kind of nightmares you have.  If you're living well. If you're eating well...." Arashi confessed.  "I think about what happened in Ceco. What you said about who you are now.  What kind of a person you've become. If I can let you go and live my life."

Arashi sighed heavily before scratching the back of his head in nervousness and frustration.  Why is it that in front of Emmy he acts like a young virgin who is speaking to his first lover. 

"After six months of thinking.  I've come to the conclusion. That I can't live without you.  That I still love you. I want to get to know the woman you are now.  I want to know your secrets and your nightmares. I want to see you living well.  Eating well. I want the chance to stand by your side. And if that means being apart Seoras, Gengrick and Dominic's life.  I'm willing to do that as well. Although I've never been with a man, I'm not adverse to it." Arashi confessed. "I've even done some research on it and I think I wouldn't be opposed to it."

"Research?"  Emmy asked as her right eyebrow rose up. 

"At the Red Light Lane.  I've been observing men together with other men.  I've been reading on it as well." Arashi's face lit up pink as he quickly coughed and looked away for a moment to gather his thoughts and when he looked back at Emmy he took a big breath and spoke again.  "And I-- I became curious about it...I know I have a long way to go with you. I have a long way to go with Seoras, Gengrick and Dominic. But, I think we can all get to know each other at the same time. If it works out.  It works out. If it doesn't, then I know that I didn't live my life with any regrets. All I'm asking is for a chance. A fair chance. That's all I'm asking."

Emmy looked at Arashi's honest yet pleading eyes and knew he was confessing everything in his heart.  The reason she rejected him was because he reminded her of her past. Of the foolish and naive girl she was.  The girl she wanted to forget. Maybe, by giving him a chance, it would help heal the wound on her heart and soul.

"Seoras, Gengrick and Dominic has to  agree to it as well." Emmy told him.

Arashi smiled brightly at her and nodded his head in agreement. 

"Okay!  I'll ask!  Where are they?" 

"Behind you."  Emmy said as she pointed towards her husbands. 

Arashi quickly turned around and bowed to them.  Before he could even open his mouth, Seoras spoke. 

"One chance.  If you break her heart, play with it, or betray her.  We will break you."

Arashi quickly looks up at Seoras and nods his head in agreement. 

"Same rules applies to us."  Gengrick told him. "If you want to be in this relationship.  It's forever. No take backs. No regrets."

Arashi nodded his head again.  His smiled widen at their words.  His heart beated faster and faster as happiness filled him. 

Dominic uncurls his arms that were in front of his chest and walked towards Arashi.  To everyone's surprise, Dominic pulls Arashi into his arms and kisses Arashi. Arashi body tensed for a moment before relaxing.  His mouth opened and accepted Dominic's domineering kiss. When Dominic broke the kiss. Arashi still had his eyes closed and a faint blush could be seen on his cheeks. 

Dominic licked his lips and caressed Arashi's pink cheeks softly.

"Not bad."

"Definitely a lecherous husband."  Emmy said as she smiled at him.

"Wife.  If you want a kiss from these lips, all you have to do is ask and I shall serve you willingly."  Dominic smiled as he walked towards Emmy.

However before he could reach Emmy, Seoras was by Emmy's side and pulled her close to him. 

"Don't taint our Wife with your lecherous ways!" 

"Yeah."  Gengrick said as he walked next to Dominic.  "Keep pushing Seoras and you'll be punished by him later tonight." 

"What if that's exactly what I want?"  Dominic said as he licked his lips and smiled wickedly at Seoras. 

Gengrick knocks the back of Dominic's head and the three of them left Dominic and Arashi behind.  Dominic rubs the back of his head and catches up to them. Arashi watches at the four of them walk further away from him.  His heart begins to feel as if a stone was stuck inside of it.

"Are you going to stand there the whole day or are you coming?"  Dominic asked as he turned around to shout at Arashi.

Arashi smiles and the stone inside his heart disappears.  Arashi runs after them leaving the plaques he wrote and tied on to the 1000 year old tree blow freely with the wind. 

The first plaque he wrote when he was nine years old.  It read:

'My wish is to be Emmy Light's husband.'

The second plaque read:

'My wish is to find Emmy Light.' 

The third plaque read:

'My wish is for Emmy to be happy.  I want to be apart of that happiness.  May those that she loves, love me as I will learn to love them.'

The end. 

**** A/N:  Wahhh! Another end to my stories.  I hoped you enjoyed Deviant as I enjoyed writing it for you guys.  I have already began writing my next book, however I need your help!  I have an idea for a Boys Love/Yaoi/Gay story and an idea for a straight couple/maleXfemale story.  It'll be my first BL story if it gets chosen. I'll leave it up to you guys which one you want me to write first. 

Here's a quick summary: 

Option 1)

Title: Seducing My Senior Disciple

Tag:  Boys Love/ Yaoi/ Gay, love story,  second chance, Mature/smut ...etc

Summary:

Within the Moonlight Sect, Jolan wasted his life being the lacky of the son of Moonlight Sect Headmaster, Joel.  Whatever Joel wanted, Jolan did for him, even taking the fall for all the trouble that Joel caused.

The only one who opposed of Jolan's foolishness is, Valentin Mismer, the Headmaster's stunningly talented, first disciple and Joel's nemesis.

Valentin always warned Jolan about being used by Joel, however he did not listen.  In the end, the cause of Jolan's death was due to admitting the crime that Joel committed. 

When Jolan's eyes opened, he realized he was 16 years old again.  He had just joined the Moonlight Sect and have been given a second chance.  A second chance to live his life and not make the same mistakes. A second chance to pay those that deserve his punishment and pay back those who he owes. 

The only person who he owed in his past life, is Valentin Mismer and one of the ways Jolan was going to pay him back, is with his body.

Option 2)

Title: 100

Tags:  straight couple, reincarnation, love story, mature/ smut... etc

Summary:

Akari Ayame lived 99 lives. 99 lives as the same person, life events and the same fate.  Her death at the hands of her love rival and unrequited love.

No matter how many different paths she took, in the end, her death was the same.

99 reincarnations.

99 trials to seek her happy ending.

99 tribulations of sorrow, anger and regret.

99 heartbreaks.

99 deaths.

In the end Akari was tired of trying.  She thought that the reason why she kept reincarnating was to find her happy ending with the man she loved. But with 99 fails, she was tired of the same fate. This time, her 100th time, she would be the matchmaker for her love rival and unrequited love.  She will no longer block their love and try to live her life without sorrow, anger, regrets or heartbreak.

With the fickle Gods of Fate, how would Akari know that it would only take 100 tries for her to find her happy ending.
