Continued from Checkmate.

Bhudo enters Vaieh's rooms and tossed the pictures on the bed.

GRRRR! *& how &^$% does she expect me #*)@(#*$&#&#* to maintain my ^A$&#*(@% sanity!?

Between my daughter and Kai someone will die soon. And it won't be me.

I want no interruptions this time.

Cami: *dinks around with Witten's ear* Holy damn... wake up already...

Cora: *muffled as she holds the tissue to her nose which is still perioidically bleeding* Cami.. dont' swear... and he'll wake up soon, in a few weeks... give him a break...

Cami: I'm bored!! I want him to wake up NOW!!

Cora: *listens to her phone playing the tune for an unknown caller* Oh god... who could that be....

Cami: Well who do you think it is? It's my nihal you fool, now answer it!!

Cora: It makes me nervous... I wonder who's phone he's borrowing this time.

Cora: *takes a deep breath and puts on her best flirtatious face, answering* Oh Bhudo... you always catch me at the worst times!! Half naked and nose-bleeding....

Bhudo: Seems to be as good a way as any to catch you. I think perhaps to keep you that way. Lock this number in your phone. I bought my own finally.

Cora: Keep me that way? *teasing* I daresay Bhudo, if you keep me that way I shall just have to keep you wet and naked the way I found those pictures of you in my inbox not too long ago!! Fair is fair?

*takes the phone away from his face muttering* will it never end? *switches her to speakerphone.
I didn't send them. I did get some of yourself. You can have me wet and naked if I can have you in the tub.

Cora: *looks surprised and then irritated* Someone is grounded for a freaking year....

Cora: *lays the charm on very thickly* The bathtub huh? Did you enjoy what you see then?

More than you know. Did you? Enjoy what you saw that is?

Cora: Now honestly Bhudo, what kind of question is that to ask a lady?!

Cora: *throws her bloody tissue into the basket already full of bloody tissues* ..... ahem... More then I know huh? I wonder what that is supposed to mean exactly... more then I know?

*low and sexy* It means that I want you Corina. If you were standing before me right now you would be incapable of speech. *growls* I would be devouring you this second.

Cora: *turns completely red, her speech turned to absolute mush* Uh.... uheeh.... uhmnm...

Cora: *coughs, trying to regain her tongue* Well... well.... huh... w-w-well...

Cora: *eyes search frantically for something to distract her* Oh! Oh! My casserole is burning!! I need to go get it out of the oven... I'll be right back.. here.. talk to Cami... *shoves her phone towards Cami and runs off*

Camilla: Well hello nihal... you know that it is ten o'clock at night and there is no casserole right?

*scoots up the bed chuckling* Yes I know she lied Camilla. You are naughty aliar. You need a spanking. *softly* But I thank you

Cami: Oh thank me? Enjoy those pictures then? I thought you would... you know I only do this because Kai and I are having an ongoing battle.. I'm afraid with this most recent batch however I might have found myself completely checkmated...

Camilla: You'll be pleased to know, and though I'm not sure why this is a pleasing thing to know, but Mama nearly bleed to death through the nose after Kai's last.. ahem.. report to us. You know Bhudo.. I think she likes you alot...

Did she now? *smiles* heh, I wonder what exactly was in that "report". I must remember to ask my twin to show me sometime.

Camilla: Nihal, are you in love with my mother?

*slides down* I am more than in love with her aliar. Since I first saw her.

Camilla: I see.... well then, why is Auntie Vaieh angry with you, nihal?

That I will not tell you aliar. Let us simply say she thinks I am too slow.

Camilla: I see I still need to solve this riddle of the Sugar Plum Fairy... don't think I am a little fool and won't figure it out. You can hide nothing from me. Your answers thus far have pleased me... for now, Bhudo, I give you permission to court my mother. I may withdraw this permission as I see fit.

Thank you. I pray you never withdraw it. I am enjoying this chase to a point. She must come to me. Should I lay a trail of sweets?

Camilla: *watches Cora enter the room and sit down on the bed* Play nicely and the kitten will not scratch you.. if you pull her tail she will only hiss and claw you up. Woo her with nice words and pets and yes.. perhaps treats as well. Be gentle and she will love you for it.

*pushes back up to a sitting position* What good advice aliar. I'll be sure to follow it closely. I gather from the tone of your voice that she has returned?

Cora: *sits on the bed, thinking quietly*
Cami: Yes. Your kitten needs love, make sure to give it lots of attention. I think it cares for you more then it may admit right now...

* barely breathing he stays silent a moment before saying huskily* A precious gift aliar. Thank you.

Camilla: *hands the phone to her mother* How's that casserole coming, Mama? *cackles and heads out of the room*
Cora: ......................

Cora: I have returned... it uhhh... appears the casserole is just fine >.>

I see. I hope it is as good as I am told. I am glad to have you back, salirani. Talking to my aliar is always enjoyable but I missed you.

Cora: Missed me huh? You shouldn't miss me too much with those.. ahem, pictures *sarcastically* my dearest, sweetest little angel of a daughter sent you....

Cora: Missed me huh? You shouldn't miss me too much with those.. ahem, pictures *sarcastically* my dearest, sweetest little angel of a daughter sent you....

Cora: *blushes a little* Haha, it's not that big of a deal... as long you keep them safe <3 I am flattered that you are so attached to me... I am uh.. not really used to that kind of affection from someone, especially not from such an attractive friend of mine <3

No. I will destroy them. They should not have been taken... much less seen by any other than my eyes. Send me a proper portrait Corina. I will place it on the table with your flowers. Be mine.

Cora: *blushes and giggles a little bit* That is a very sweet invitation Bhudo... I'll keep it in mind... It is awfully hard to say no or even maybe... but the question is do you want me or do you want my love?

Is your love not a part of you? I have told you before I am greedy. I want all of you.

Cora: *shakes her head* No... no you can't have it. I have a heart already belonging to someone else....... you know this.....

*sigh* I know it. I accept it. It is one of the reasons I want you. It must be you. I will have no other. Come to me Corina. Meet my price. Sing for me. Accept me.

Cora: *begins to get very, very flustered* Oh... Oh Bhudo.. oh... I don't know... I... I need to go... I-I have to go now...

*bolts up* No! *softer* no Corina. Talk to me. Don't run away.. Is it so hard to accept my feelings for you? To return them? Is Vincent that much to you still?
Stay and answer Corina, I command it.

Cora: *completely flustered* No... that's not it... of-of course I love Vincent.. you know how I feel for him, I will never give up on his love... I.. I don't know how I feel about you Bhudo... I don't know if you could accept that I would love two people... what am I saying? I don't know... please.... I-I-I can't talk anymore...
