Chapter Twelve: Pact:

There were two pacts made that day.

Hours later, Noiz awoke to find Mosh sitting over her.

�Hey,� the mouse whispered to her. His wife gave him a long blank stare.

�You didn�t leave?� she asked. �Don�t you have a meeting today?� Mosh smiled as he shook his head.

�Nah,� he said. �I decided to stay here with you.� His wife gave him a rather confused look on her face.

�What?� she asked. The mouse boy pressed his forehead against hers. Noiz felt her cheeks heating up as he grabbed onto her hands.

�I know this has been hard on you,� he said in a low voice. �But I will stay by you no matter what.� Noiz looked at him with big eyes.

�Mosh-kun�� she murmured. He softly put his finger to her lips.

�Don�t talk,� he whispered. �I just need you to doing something for me in return.�

�What?� his pregnant wife asked. Mosh gave her a little kiss on the tip of her nose.

�I will help you get through this and stay by you no matter what,� he said. �But you have to try and help yourself as well.� The kitty began to speak, but her husband cut her off.

�No, dear,� he whispered. �You are not handling this too well. I�m worried that you might harm yourself or the baby. Please, for all of our sakes!� Noiz looked at him with big, blank eyes.

�Have I really been that bad lately?� she asked. Mosh gave her a slow nod.

�I don�t like seeing you like this,� he murmured. His wife�s eyes glanced down at the sheets below.

�I�m so sorry,� she whispered. The mouse boy shook his head at her.

�You�re going through a tough time,� he said. �It�s okay to talk to someone about it.�

�Anyone?� the pregnant kitty asked.

�Anyone,� Mosh repeated. Noiz gave him the cute little look of a newborn kitten.

�Do you have time to listen to me?� she asked. Mosh smiled as he patted her on the head.

�I have all day if you need to,� he said.

In the Heavens, Roka and Jiao lied in bed together. His hand closed around hers. �You have given me a new purpose,� he told her. Jiao glanced over at him with narrowed eyes.

�Is that so?� she asked.

�Yes,� her new play thing answered.

�And what would that be?� the lusty deity questioned him. The former priest turned to her with a smile on his face.

�I will do whatever it takes to keep Noiz and Mosh together,� he announced boldly. Jiao raised an eyebrow at him, smirking.

�I mean it,� Roka insisted. The glow on his face began to dim. �I can�t do it alone however,� he confessed. The former priest rolled over on his side. �I ask this of you,� he said while staring into her golden eyes. �Please aid me in my new mission.� He expected her to laugh at him, but instead, Jiao lifted her head.

�You�re serious about this?� she asked. Roka gave her a small shrug.

�I guess�� he answered light-heartedly. His mistress shook her head.

�It�s either you are or you aren�t,� she told him. �You cannot guess.� Roka gave her an ambitious smile as he rolled on top of her.

�I am serious about this,� he answered. �I am more serious about this than anything else in my life!�

�And you�re sure about this?� Jiao asked.

�I am positive,� the former priest answered. His mistress gave him a devilish smile.

�Alright then,� she said. �I�ll aid you on your cause.� Roka pressed a kiss onto her plump lips.

�I thank you,� he whispered. She pulled him into her arms and rolled on top of him. The former priest�s eyes lit up with excitement.

�Take me, mistress!� he pleaded in a gasp. Jiao laughed aloud at his request. Her toy gave her a blank stare.

�What?� he asked. Jiao smiled as she shook her head.

�Two years before, you�ve fought me tooth and nail in situations like this,� she pointed out. Roka gave her a warm smile.

�I guess I have changed,� he said. Jiao leaned down for another kiss before starting up round two of their carnal ride in bed.
