Chapter 25 - Not my mate

After Tatsuya was done clearing the scene he and Himari went back to his home. After entering inside they noticed that bit Miyuki and Kurumi were there in the living room. Both of them turned around and found Tatsuya along with a girl. Both of them narrowed their eyes and looked at Tatsuya and Himari. Though they were not saying anything the way they were glaring looked like they were saying, 'tell us what happened now!!!'

Tatsuya sighed and said, "Calm down I will explain." Tatsuya went to the living room and Himari followed behind him. Tatsuya sat on the sofa and Miyuki and Kurumi sat beside him. Seeing both of them showing of their relationship with Tatsuya Himari's brow was twitching and decided to pay them back later.

Tatsuya who heard her thoughts through telepathy had a sweat drop. He looked at his side and saw both Miyuki and Kurumi looking intently on Himari. Himari didn't wavered by their gaze and looked back at them.

Tatsuya who had started to get nervous from the atmosphere around him said, "Ok you two cut it out, Himari meet them they are Miyuki and Kurumi they are my..." He looked at them and said, " My lovers" both of them nodded and smiled at his answer. Tatsuya gave a sigh of relief as thought that he just dodged a bullet, but suddenly he felt killing intent aimed at him. He nervously looked up and saw Himari smiling at him but to Tatsuya the smile wasn't sweet at all, it was the smile of a demon.

Tatsuya coughed and said, "And you two meet Himari, she is the cat which lived with us for a few days." Both of them blinked their eyes and said, "what" together. Tatsuya was about to answer them but Himari interrupted him and said, "Yes he is telling the truth." and changed into a cat and then reversed back. Both the girls were astonished but were not shocked as they have seen many things like that. Miyuki then looked back at Tatsuya and asked, "Ok what is she doing here?" This time too Himari answered them and said, "I will be living with you all from now please take care of me in future." Miyuki looked at her with narrowed eyes and said, "And why would you be living with us?" Hearing her question Himari smiled mischievously and said, "Since Tatsuya ravaged my body so he will be taking responsibility for that and I will be his MATE too." she said focusing on the mate part.

After Himari finished saying the room started to get colder. Ice had started to form around Miyuki. Miyuki turned and looked at Tatsuya and asked in a cold voice, "Onii-sama what is she talking about, she is saying something about ravaging her body or something and what is the mate business here?" Tatsuya looked at her with an expressionless face and said, "do you really believe that I would do something like that Miyuki, am I that low in your view?" Miyuki who heard him stoped glaring at him and ice started to melt. Miyuki started to feel worried and said, "no-no it's not like that, I know Onii-sama is not like that, I am sorry for doubting you." After she said that she looked down feeling ashamed. Tatsuya who saw that enveloped her in a hug.

After a while Kurumi looked at Tatsuya and asked, "so why is she really here?" Hearing her question Miyuki too looked up at Tatsuya expecting an answer. Tatsuya and Himari then started to explain the situation to both of them and after the explanation was over Miyuki and Kurumi looked at Himari and said, "well I do sympathize with your situation and have no problems with you living with us." Himari smiled softly at them hearing that they have no problems with her living there. "But there is one question that you have still not answered, why did you say that you were Onii-sama's mate?" Himari was about to answer them but was stopped by Kurumi who said, "Stop, Tatsuya you tell us." Tatsuya nodded and explained told them the reason. After hearing the reason both Miyuki looked at Himari and said, "You become her mate because he played with you in your cat form." Himari nodded her head in response. They then turned towards Tatsuya and asked, "And you accepted it?" to which Tatsuya said, "no".

Hearing him all three of them blanked. After sometime Himari came out of shock and jumped on him, grabbed his collar and started shaking him and said, "Hey didn't you said that you would take responsibility, so what are you doing by denying about me being your mate." She continued to shake him after saying that. Tatsuya looked at her with an expressionless face and said, "yes I did say that I would take responsibility for 'what I did' and will fulfil it by taking care of you like a good cat with whom I played a lot" Tatsuya gave her a sweet smile. Tatsuya was very happy to get back at her because had been spouting nonsense about her body being ravaged by him and was annoyed by that so he decided to take his revenge.

After hearing his answer Miyuki and Kurumi were lying on the ground and were launching very loudly. Seeing them laugh Himari started gritting her teeth. She was thinking of her as fool that she got played by Tatsuya's tricks and wanted to lash out him but suddenly she felt something on her head. She looked up and saw Tatsuya patting her head with a smile on her face. Tatsuya looked at Himari and said, "Though it is a bit late I now officially invite you in our family."

The other girls also stopped laughing and stood up. They placed their hands on Himari's shoulders and said, "welcome to the family." She looked at both of them and then smiled and said, "Thank you all of you and take care of me from now on." The others smiled at her and nodded. Himari then looked at Miyuki and Kurumi and said, "Though I am still not his mate, bear in mind that it would not be late before he falls for me, so best of luck." She then looked at them with a competitive glare.

Miyuki and Kurumi also returned her glare and said, "we will see about that neko-san" They kept on glaring at each other until they received a hit on their heads from Tatsuya who looked at them with an expressionless face but they could tell that he was annoyed. He looked at them and said in a cold voice, "it's getting late so go back to bed now! and Himari you would be sleeping with them UNDERSTOOD!!" Himari was about to whine but when she heard her cold tone she stood straight and nodded her head furiously like the other too.

Tatsuya looked at them once more and nodded before going back to his room.
