The Eminence of a True Monarch of the Shadows

~Omni Pov~

After seeing that Beta was peacefully asleep, Cid just put the book he was holding for decoration on the seat he was sitting on and with a smile sank onto his shadow.

And as he was about to appear in his room he notice that his sister was inside waiting for him. Seeing this he just sighed before appearing outside in the yard by his window.

To make it look like he was sneaking in he started to climb the side of the mansion and opened the window to his room and as he step foot inside Claire cleared her throat

"A-HEM"

"What could you have been doing in the middle of the night that made you think it was okay to be sneaking around and coming home late mister"

Cid sighed once again and said "Uhhh training"

Claire just gave him an unimpressed look, she then stood up from sitting on his bed and walked towards Cid and grabbed him by his ear.

She then started pulling his ear and started to reprimand him "You're just 10 years old, you should know that it's dangerous to be staying out so late

Why do you always make me worry about you"

"You really shouldn't worry, you do know I'm way stronger than you"

A tick mark appeared on her head showing just how pissed off she got at that statement and said "I'll show you who's stronger" he went to throw a punch to his face but Cid just casually caught it making Claire even angrier

"Just let me hit you once so I could show you who's stronger"

Cid didn't even bother replying to her and just moved behind her wrapping his arms around her waist and picked her up.

While being held up Claire started kicking her legs saying "Let me go and fight me, I'll show you just how strong I am"

"No"

Was all Cid said before he proceeded to turn around and suplex Claire into the bed. Which caused her to let out a surprise yelp

Claire then repositioned herself on the bed and grabbed Cid dragging him in as they started to wrestle and turn around on the bed.

They continued twisting and turning and grabbing onto each other until Claire was on top of Cid grabbing his hands and putting them above his head.

Panting a bit, Claire while looking into Cid's eyes said "Who's stronger now"

Cid looking right back into her eyes said "you know I letting you win right"

Claire just continued to look deep into his eyes while still breathing heavily

Claire then started to lower her head slightly while still looking into his eyes and with one final look she closed her eyes and lowered her head right onto his lips.

Causing their lips to connect and kiss Cid.

Her eyes then shot wide open upon realizing what she has done and with a panicked expression she got off of him

She then started scrambling getting off the bed and started sprinting towards the door with tears in her eyes while continuously muttering "I'm sorry"

Claire then left the room closing the door behind her and with her face between her hands started running down the corridor and into her room where she proceeded to get under the covers and bury her face inside her pillow and let out a muffled scream.

"AAAAHHHHHHHH"

She then started to rapidly kick her feet and continue screaming into her pillow

"I can't believe I kissed him!!!"

Meanwhile Cid is just laying in bed with his arms spread out while looking at the ceiling

"...Well that was interesting"

He just shook his head as he drifted off to sleep not even bothering to question what just happened.

The next day with Beta...

Beta can be seen waking up and stretching from having the best sleep of her life

'As expected of Master, thanks to him I was able to have a peaceful sleep, one I hadn't been able to have in a long time' Beta thought with watery eyes.

"I can't wait for master to continue where he left off" Beta said outloud as she got out of bed and got ready for her day in training.

As for Claire...

Claire can be seen looking up towards the ceiling with dark circles under her eyes as she hadn't been able to fall asleep due to her previous actions

'He's never going to forgive me, I took advantage of him' Claire at this point just found it difficult to get out of bed.

After a while she then heard a knock on the door which was followed by Cid saying "I'm coming in"

Before Claire had any chance to protest Cid just barged right in and closed the door behind him and as he did he walked towards Claire's bed and said "What are you doing still laying in bed, you normally are the first one to wake up."

Claire just grabbed her covers and covered her head to stop him from looking at her afraid that he would hate her for what she did

Cid seeing her just sighed before grabbing the sheets and pulling them off of her.

"Just get up already, and if you're worry about what happened last night don't worry about it"

Cid then gave her a playful smirk and rubbed his lower lip with his thumb as he said "As a matter of fact, I enjoyed it"

He then got closer to Claire and lowered his head giving her a kiss on the lips

And as he back away he just continued to give her a playful smirk as he said "There, now we're even"

Claire just continued to lay there on her bed with a shocked expression not knowing what to do next

Cid then started walking towards the door and said "If I don't see you in the training yard after breakfast imma assume you just want another one, so hurry it up"

And as soon as Cid left Claire's entire face turned bright red as she grabbed a pillow to her side and hugged it tight as she started rolling around in bed "He kissed me" she kept muttering.

And that's how the morning started in the Kagenou household.
