Chapter 32

—

"Hmm... Where did it go...?" In a bio lab of Jupiter's tower stood tall a Blondie working on his latest product , only to find the file with all of his data missing. He had searched everywhere but could not locate it.

"Where on Amoi did I put that file!?" Raoul shouted angrily as he was beginning to lose his temper. Then a certain face popped into his mind. "That sly red fox!" His hands turned into fists as he remembered it all.

Flash back (start)

Raoul had called Katze over and examined his body and taken a few tests. While Katze was waiting to be ordered to leave, Raoul had gone into the next room to submit the samples he had taken. That is when the deed had taken place.

The file was just sitting there innocently on the top of a desk. In bold red letters it read CONFIDENTIAL, and Katze knew that that file contained Raoul's many years of work and if by chance that file were to go missing all hell would break loose. It would surely make the Blondie do something that Katze could use to get his previous post back!

With a swift movement, Katze pushed the file into the trash with his elbow as he pretended to reach for some sanitary tissues. Spying the basket from the corner of his eye, he threw his used tissues in the basket to successfully cover the file.

After a while, Raoul came back and ordered the pet to leave and waved his hand to effectively dismiss him. Katze, pretending to trip a bit, lightly tipped the basket over and spilled the contents all over the spotless floor.

Raoul noticed the clutter and frowned. "So clumsy! Mongrels should never be in a status of that such as yourself! You should be grateful, now clean that mess up!" Raoul ordered, fuming with annoyance as he turned and continued to study the results from the few of Katze's test samples.

With a smirk Katze bowed his head. "Yes…Master…" He picked up the clutter and threw it into the garbage disposal portal, but kept the file. He then left the lab unnoticed and made his way back to his room. Scanning the file he began to study a bit of what the Blondie was working on.

It might come in handy…

Flash back (end)

Raoul stormed back to his apartment and upon arrival spoke harshly with Niko, asking the boy where his pet was. When he had been told that Katze was in his room, Raoul gritted his teeth and told Niko that he was not to be disturbed.

***ANK***

Riki awoke slowly, opening his eyes and felt a twing of slight discomfort from below him. He blushed a bit, remembering the eventful night that had passed. He emitted a groan while sitting up and noticed that Iason was not in the bed like usual. He groaned again and got out of bed, heading to the bathroom. Not noticing the steam in the bathroom, Riki washed his hands and face. Surprisingly, Iason had wiped him clean when he was out cold after their last round of the night. Now all Riki wanted to do was slip into the soothing hot water in the bathtub and relax his sore muscles. Even though Riki loved the man with the icy blue eyes, he still wanted to curse at him for not holding back! Riki was not genetically modified to withstand such measures that Iason inflicted on him! Lust filled blue eyes watched him as he cursed under his breath.

I am a human for God's sake! My body can't take too much of his never ending appetite! Riki yelled internally, thoroughly annoyed as he got into the steaming tub.

"Mmmmmmnnnn…Ah…" Riki moaned in pleasure as the heat of the water soothed his aching muscles. While he was reclining back, he felt something soft behind him and suddenly was caught in a strong embrace that startled him.

"Shhh…Easy pet…"

"Fuck! Iason! What the hell do you think you're doing pervert!"

"On the contrary, it seems that you are the pervert in this situation. You slipped into the bath tub knowing full well that I was already in here…"

"How the fuck was I supposed to know you wer—" Iason placed a hand on Riki's lips, silencing him.

"Profanity Riki." Iason spoke, his tone literally making the water a few degrees colder as his eyes grew dark.

"Mmfmmnnfff!"

"Pardon?" Iason pulled his hand away.

"W–whatever, it's gonna take a while for me to… to not curse. Get that in your brain! And don't force or punish me to not curse or else I won't stop using them!" Riki crossed his arms on his chest and he could practically feel Iason smirking behind him.

"Yes, yes…" Iason pulled Riki so he could lay flush against his chest. He loved the warm and smooth skin of his lover against his, it was pure bliss.

"One more thing, why the hell are you still calling me pet?!" Riki abruptly turned around, splashing water all around, and some even landed on Iason's face.

"Because…" Iason wiped the water from his face and continued. "I simply wish to do so…"

"Well then I'll simply wish to call you a prick too~" Riki retorted, mimicking Iason's way of speech in a mocking way.

"…" Iason just observed Riki with amusement dancing in his eyes. Every day he got to see different sides of his Mongrel…oops…Ex-Mongrel. Iason mentally corrected himself but then smirked.

But of course he shall remain my Mongrel for all eternity… he silently promised as he pulled Riki into his embrace once again and kissed him gently, his soft pale lips brushing against the soft dark ones.

***ANK***

"Welcome back, Masters." Cal bowed to both Iason and Riki as they entered the penthouse's threshold.

"Where is Aurora?" Was the first question Riki asked, entering his home.

"She is with Rei in the nursery, Master," Cal smiled at Riki as he took Iason's cloak.

Riki immediately went to the nursery to see his daughter, while Iason went into his office to see if he had any messages. There were others concerning his business, but his crystal blue orbs narrowed as he saw one from none other than his best friend Raoul.

'Katze will not be working for you for at least a while… not until I'm through with him for giving me trouble.'

"Oh Raoul…and even after I warned you…" Iason held back the urge to sigh and just pinched the bridge of his nose.

Katze must have done something to anger him so much… Iason thought.

***ANK***

Katze saw Raoul enter his new room (the pet room) and shouted to Niko to not be disturbed.

Here it comes… I need to act innocent and slip his file back and then blame him for cruelty. But I have to be careful, one small slip up and this situation can end up all over me…which I can't afford to let happen.

Raoul took long steps and in a few he was within reach of the red head, gripping the boy's hair in his gloved hands.

"Where is it!?"

"Ah!" Katze winced. "Where is…what!? I…don't know what you're talking about!"

Shit! This guy if fucking serious! Katze was panicking inside, but remained stoic on the outside.

"I do not like to repeat myself, filth! That file had my long and hard years of work inside! Where is it, Mongrel!?" Raoul began to shout and gripped on his hair tighter, making Katze squeak.

"I don't know what you talking about!"

"I will kill you if you do not inform me of its position!" Then something struck Raoul like a lightning bolt. "No…I won't kill you… but what I do to you will make you wish you were dead…" Raoul spoke in a low, poison filled whisper which made all of the hair on Katze's body stand.

What have I gotten myself into!? Katze's face paled as Raoul dragged him to the wall where chains hung dauntingly on the walls. Yes, it was where pets who were naughty would be tied up and punished…

Trying to struggle free from the Blondie's vice grip, Katze spoke, "I did nothing! Don't accuse me of doing something I didn't do!"

"Did not do?" Raoul yanked him, throwing him to the floor near where the chains hung.

"It seems you fail to understand who exactly I am. I am a Blondie! Second in command to The Syndicate!" Raoul narrowed his eyes, clipping the cuffs on Katze's wrists. Giving an evil smirk, Raoul then added. "And soon…you'll be singing everything out for me…" He walked to the panel in the wall and opened it. If Katze's eyes could pop out of his skull and land on the floor, they would have. He could see rows upon rows of various bottles and containers aphrodisiacs and stimulants in the cabinet of all variety,sending shivers running up his spine just thinking of what the mad man was going to do to him.

"I saw the footage of you throwing my life's precious work into the trash…"

Katze's heart was hammering against his ribs like an animal trying to escape from a fire. He needed to get out of this situation..!

"I didn't do it on purpose!"

"But you got rid of it so easily…"

"You're the one who ordered me to empty the basket! How could I have known it was in there!?" Katze shouted, beginning to pant when Raoul came closer to him holding an injecting gun and a glass vile.

"Good, I won't have to give an adrenaline shot…" He put the vile into the gun and then placed it on Katze's arm and shot it.

Katze flinched, "What the hell did you give me?!" He was starting to lose his cool, if he didn't get a grip on himself, he would start go wild.

"Oh nothing, just my personal version of truth serum." Raoul spoke with a heavy, cold voice as he took another vile to replace the empty one in the gun.

Katze lost all of his composure. 'Truth serum!? What if I blab out other things…! Iason would…no! I have to resist!'

As if reading his thoughts on cue, Raoul smirked. "And this…will make it harder for you to resist telling the truth…" He shot him again, but this time there were stimulants to weaken his resolve and keep him awake for a long while.

It was only after a short while that Katze's body began to burn with sensations he had not felt in a long time. They brewed together like a turbulent storm before filling him from head to toe.

"What did…y-you give me!?" he panted, sweating profusely as Raoul sat calmly in his chair. He sipped his drink while he watched the Mongrel in front of him succumb to his creation with piercing green orbs.

"That is for me to know and for you to succumb to," Raoul chuckled evilly.

Katze's mind began to muddle itself. He felt hot and weak at the same time, yet he could not drift into unconsciousness.

Damn him and his drugs! I should have burned the fucking file! Katze glared at Raoul with his eyes brimming with anger. Fear shot through him as Raoul rose, placing his glass down before he walked over to pressed the redhead's hard on down roughly with his foot, making the lesser being groan in pain.

"What is this?" he mocked, before ripping the boy's pants off and pulling out a ring from his pocket. "I never thought I would need this, but I am beginning to see why Iason enjoyed playing with that mutt so much…" He maneuvered the ring on his finger, causing the training ring in his hand to grow larger before he slid it onto Katze's manhood, and watched it fasten snugly with satisfaction. Katze let out a yelp when the ring bit into his flesh.

"I am sure you are familiar with this type of pet ring…?" Raoul smirked and leaned closer to Katze's ear. "It is the same one used to tame Iason's Mongrel…" Katze pulled on the chains with a jerk, making them jingle and causing Raoul to smirk wider.

"Now then, Katze…Where is my file…?" he repeated darkly.

***ANK***

Riki walked into Iason's office holding Aurora, "What's wrong?"

Iason pondered if he should say anything or not. "Katze appears to be out on a hard task, but never mind that." He then glanced at Aurora who was sitting nicely in Riki's arms.

"Did you give him too much work or something?" Riki asked as he sat on the sofa with Aurora in his arms. She started pulling at his hair while cooing, then looked at Iason, giggling as she reached for him.

"Yes, I think he buried himself in his work and is now paying the price," Iason answered, before smiling back at the baby.

Riki smiled at Aurora, rose up from the sofa and took her to Iason and set her in his lap. "She misses you..."

Iason was a bit unnerved about holding something so fragile, but held her gently. "Hello, precious." He then tapped her nose with his fingertip.

She giggled and sneezed softly.

Iason narrowed his eyes as he lifted her up. "You've grown a lot haven't you, sweetie?" He threw her up into the air gently and then caught her, earning a shriek of delight from her.

"She also got heavier..." Riki smiled, watching the exchange.

"You're growing quickly, aren't you?" Iason smiled and threw her up again which made her cry out happily again while she flailed her arms.

"But I think she is growing way too fast..." Riki frowned. "She's only 3 months and she is trying to walk..."

Iason frowned as well and said, "Well she is a Blondie. She is more advanced than other children."

Riki sighed, "True..."

"Don't worry, love. She's progressing just fine." Iason smiled and set Aurora on the floor.

Riki smiled as he saw her stand up, gripping Iason's desk in her tiny hands. "My beautiful Aurora...growing up so perfectly..."

Iason reached out to touch Riki's face. "She's perfect because of you."

Riki blushed a bit. "Sh-shut up…"

Iason grinned and then glanced down at Aurora who had grabbed onto his leg.

Riki picked her up. "Let's go, Cal just set up dinner for us."

"I have to finish up something quickly. I'll be home in a little bit. All right?" Iason spoke, looking into Riki's eyes.

"Okay..." Riki looked back at him questioningly. "Come back safe." He kissed him on the cheek.

Unable to resist, Iason captured his face and kissed him deeply, leaving him breathless before he pulled back. "I can do it later, " he decided before standing up.

"D-don't do that in front of her!" A pink shade covered Riki's tan cheeks.

Iason frowned. "Why not? Is it bad for her to see her parents love each other?"

"She is too young!" Riki argued back. "What if she goes and tries it on someone else!?"

Iason's eyes grew dark. "Never."

"Don't do it in front of her then, stupid Blondie!" Riki turned and walked to the door, stopping as he felt the lack of a following presence."You coming or not?"

"As you wish then, I'll never kiss you in front of her, ever again." Iason began to walk to the door.

"It's okay once she understands everything..."

"Oh? Changing the rules now? Now it's okay once she understands? She's a Blondie, she understands already." Iason stated in a as a matter of fact voice. "But I will resist as you requested."

Iason then slipped in front of Riki in one step and continued walking.

Riki pouted. "Smart ass..." He then looked at Aurora. "You still don't understand anything, right baby?" he cooed at her.

Riki hurried after Iason, following behind the Blondie who was heading to the dining area.

Please review people and tell me how it is~
