Chapter 31 - Volume 31 The Split

Yuri opened his eyes and saw Shion sleeping on a couch, looking outside it was heavily raining. Yuri wanted to embrace Shion as he slept beside him, but his legs felt to weak to even stand. Yuri's voice was crooked, and his mouth felt dry, he noticed Shion as hugging his jacket sleeping on the couch. Yuri with all the strength he had walked to the couch with his blanket, he climbed on top of Shion and fell asleep. Early in the morning Shion felt something heavy on his chest, when he opened his eyes, he saw Yuri sound asleep. Victor opened the door; their children rushed in and saw the cute pose of their parents. Yuna looking at Shion whispered, "Good morning Papa, we brought breakfast for you and mama." Rose placed the bento boxes on the cupboard, Yuri replied, "I can hear you Yuna…good morning honey. Will you carry me to the bed? My body has no ounce of energy." Shion noticed Victor standing at the door, with a smile on his face he said, "Thank you for bringing them over, I hope they didn't trouble you my Prince." Victor placed the bouquet of flowers he was holding on the cupboard, "They are my children, there was no trouble at all." Shion lifted Yuri and placed him on the bed, the nurse scolded Shion for removing Yuri on his drip.

Shion after helping Yuri take a bath and eating his meal, he took the kids to freshen up at the playground. Yuri looking at Victor who was seated on a couch asked, "Where is Princess Anya?" Victor lied as he looked in Yuri's eyes, "After realising the grave sin she committed, she killed the guards and ran away. I have sent people to look for her." Starring at his family at the playground Yuri said, "I am sure he had a reason…" "No reason is acceptable for the crime she committed; do you know how scared I was when I saw you bleeding?" the voice belonging to Victor objected Yuri's point. With a warm smile on his face he replied, "At some point I am to blame for ruining her marriage, ever since I returned you have practical denied her existence in her face. I could see her pain and loneliness in her eyes, you caused all her misery chasing after your ex-wife in her eyes." Victor knelt before Yuri, holding his hands he said, "She is the reason we separated first, karma was just getting back at her. How are you feeling? If you need anything tell me." Victor kissed Yuri's hands, Shion standing at the door watched them, "I will never keep my guard down again. I love you." Shion and Yuri's eyes met, he walked away and closed the door.

Shion sat on the park all alone, he was deep in his thoughts. Yuri wearing his coat over his hospital clothes sat beside him, he said, "It is cold outside Shion, why don't we go inside. I sent the children home." "Will we ever have a normal marriage Yuri…a marriage were it is just the two of us with no problems…were you are you perfectly safe and happy. I am too weak as a husband to ensure your safety…" Shion with tears dripping down his face honestly confronted Yuri. Holding his hand Yuri replied, "Every marriage has its problems Shion, they will pass…" "In less than a month we have already faced countless problems…you almost lost your life Yuri and I failed to even sense the danger you were in…will we truly be happy in the future? Have you truly gotten over your feeling with Victor?" Shion starring in Yuri's eyes questioned him, there was total silence between them. Shion stood from the bench, "You should go inside Yuri, I need some fresh air."

Yuri quickly returned in his room to change into warm clothes, he wanted to chase after Shion and clear out the misunderstanding. Victor saw him changing his clothes, "Where are you going? Your body isn't strong enough for you to roam around." Victor saw Yuri's red eyes, "Why do you keep forcing yourself to be with someone who is as weak as Shion?" Yuri was tired of having the same conversation with Victor, "I feel sorry for him because he took care of me for four years. When you gave up hope on my survival he stood by me…" "You empathise his love Yuri, anyone by looking at you will see you are trying so hard to create such a perfect family." Looking at the door Victor was aware Shion was standing there, pushing back Yuri's hair he said, "I will heavily compensate him Yuri. You are safer with me than Shion Yuri, your body…your soul all belong to me. Just like back then Yuri…I can still see the warmth and love in your eyes." Yuri's body was reacting to Victor's enchantment, "Tell me you love me…" Yuri's vision became blurry, his face was flustered…at each touch Yuri's body responded to Victor's touch. Yuri replied, "I love you…" Victor slowly unbuttoned his shirt, slowly kissing Yuri he whispered, "You belong to me…every inch of your body belong to me…"

Shion checking his pockets realised he had forgotten his car keys; he quickly ran to Yuri's room. when he arrived, he overheard Yuri and Victor's conversation standing at the door, he opened the door and saw Yuri and Victor kissing! Shion grabbed his car keys and walked out of the room, Yuri ran after him. Grabbing his shoulder Shion slapped it away, "Shion please look at me…" "I need to be alone right now Yuri." It was so hard for Shion to face Yuri, he was scared he might hurt him or lash out at him. Yuri holding onto his heart said, "Shion, please don't walk away." Shion squeezing Yuri's shoulders shouted, "You still love him…I can see it in your eyes that you still envy him! Of course, you do…all I did was save your life Yuri…with him you have a family and everything you ever wanted…" "I love…" Shion slapped Yuri before he could finish his statement, "Don't give me your empathy love Yuri…there was a time I felt sorry for myself for making you stay by my side. When you told me you loved me like a fool my heart felt flattered Yuri…it hurts so much that even though I know your love is filled with sympathy I still want you…I am done!" Victor punched Shion so hard that he fell on the floor, "If you ever lay a finger on his I will kill you." Yuri felt his world crumbling down, lost in the world he stood still. Shion took his car keys and walked away, Yuri's voice failed to call out his name his feet froze in the ground to run after him. Was this the end of their marriage?

Yuri looking at his doctor said, "I shouldn't be here? I should be embracing my Shion…he must be feeling really hurt. I need to be with my Shion!" Victor looking at Yuri replied, "You have to calm down Yuri…you can talk with him after you are discharged. Yuri clenching his fists replied, "I should have run after him…he was truly hurt Victor…he misunderstood I truly love him. Yes, l do love him!" Looking around the room, Yuri removed his drip, standing on his feet he said, "I need to get my husband back, why am l here." Victor holding his hand replied, "It is raining outside, and your body is weak…" "If you aren't going to drive me to see my husband Victor then let go of my hand." Yuri stared at Victor with cold eyes.

Yuri rushed out of the car when they arrived at the palace, with drenched clothes he rushed upstairs and saw his bedroom empty. Daniel was packing Takato's clothes in his room, Yuri asked, "Where is my husband and my bunny?" Daniel continued to pack the clothes quietly, Yuna entered the room and said, "Papa took Takato in the afternoon…I think he was sick because his face was red…" "Where are they?!" Yuri shouted as he thrashed the bags on the floor. Daniel looking at Yuri with red eyes replied, "Did you really have to hurt him that deep Yuri? His feelings towards you were pure and honest…shouldn't you be celebrating with Prince Victor now that he has set you free." Yuri's phone began to ring, with trembling hands he answered, "This is Yuri…" the phone slipped out of his hands, the caller on his phone was Shion's lawyer informing him about the divorce. Yuri kneeling on the floor said, "This isn't what I wanted…Shion please come back…I love you." Daniel held back his tears when he saw Yuri breaking down on the floor.
