13 Hikari Okami: Kitsune Prince

Miyako knew that one moment she was standing away from Hikari, and the next, she was swept into his arms as her mind went blank when his lips touched hers. She didn't know for how long it lasted, but the feeling of been held close lingered on as she struggled to regain her voice "Why…did you kiss me?"

"You call that a kiss? I was merely nourishing my body."

For a moment, she felt a strong emotion swell up within as the feeling of discomfort washed over her. She couldn't believe that he callously dismissed what she knew to be her first kiss, instead, she quietly whispered to herself, "Stupid Hikari."

Hikari kept looking around trying to feel the air for threats to him and the human, while glancing towards her from time to time as they talked, since the last encounter with the onmyouji nearly caused him to be completely drained of spiritual energy.

Seeing he wasn't really paying her much attention, Miyako continued to look at him fascinated by the unknown being that stood by her, feeling as if she was in a dream not wanting to admit that all this was real?

"Let's go human, before the onmyouji get here. I do not want you to be in harm's way," Hikari said as he waited for her to follow him, he knew that there was no way the onmyouji would come out to challenge one as old as him; except on the night when he unknowingly blunted the effect of his powers by assuming the form of a human.

Thankfully, his mind unconsciously sought out a highly skilled Priestess who according to his observation of her, seemed to be unaware of how much power she possessed.
