Goldheart, Sakuda

The Goldheart family was one of riches and vast knowledge. They always kept within the Clan and never even bothered to glance at the lower life-forms. Sakuda and her twin brother Kaji were different, though. They actually liked to play with the other children and get dirty. They would always come home, mud soaking their kimonos. Their parents put an immediate stop to it—especially for Sakuda’s sake. The Goldheart family, to put it simply, was full of inner marriage couples. Since they had the natural animal instinct, it did not seem wrong to them in any way. Sakuda was a special case for the Goldheart Clan. She was able to carry a large sum of pups and become pregnant once more within the same month. The doctors of the Clan were mystified by these facts, but it was no surprise to Sakuda’s father, who had claims on her as a side mate, leaving his wife as the care-taker of Sakuda’s destined pups.

While Sakuda was growing up, her brother had also begun to develop changes of his own. He quickly became more strong-held and independent. Sakuda’s father was quickly threatened at the chance of Kaji becoming an alpha, for if he was, Kaji would be able to have first call of the young pup because he was with her in the womb and followed her during birth. So he quickly sent Kaji to a school for special learning. Sakuda, not use to any distance between her and her twin, felt a sickness from the separation and began to cry out randomly for her brother, searching his room and the hallways. Her mother began to worry and tried to get her husband to change his mind, but there was no budging with the stubborn man, who only wanted the best breed out of the Clan.

A few years in complete solitude and no brother to help her through it, Sakuda became a rather innocent child with fears of practically everything. Her father would constantly scare her with stories of the outside world, then cradle her close and pepper kisses onto her forehead, claiming he would be her savior for ever. Fed up with her husband’s constant hunger for Sakuda’s first heat cycle, the mother of the beloved twins dragged Kaji back home and surprised Sakuda by placing Kaji in her bed and awaiting until Sakuda went to bed before she was reunited. Of course when her father found out, he threw a tremendous fit, however, his wife showed him how happy Sakuda was, and they left it at peace.

Inside her room with her brother, they both clung to each other’s backs and cried out how much they missed one another. Kaji would whisper words of adoration, while Sakuda whimpered about the horrors she’s heard of the outside world. Kaji insisted that the world has not been so cruel to him, and he found himself admitting he has started to smell females out fairly well, especially her scent. Sakuda was bewildered, and figured out that Kaji must be an alpha wolf. She exclaimed how proud she was, and insisted they start a pack together (though at the time, she had no idea they had to mate with each other to keep the Goldheart blood true). Kaji promised that they’d run away together, to escape the real nightmare just across the hall.

A few years passed once more, and Sakuda was twelve years old. She wanted to explore the world and found herself needed some desperate culture. Though her father was against it, he knew that Kaji had made the innocent and frightened girl into a brave young woman. No matter what he said, she’d do the opposite. So, with a rather annoyed feeling, he set her off for two years to get her fill of the world, which she took with eagerness. Kaji was t be left behind, sadly, to complete his school and to take up a position in the Clan’s leaders.

Sakuda enjoyed her trip all over the world, earning simple hi-bye friends and gaining vast knowledge on many different cultures, from the French to the Germans to the Swiss, they all taught her many things of crafts and food. Being so free to make her own choices and discover who she was, Sakuda became aware that she had an interest in women as well as men. She knew some people were like this, but never looked further into it because of her father. In each country she acquired a girlfriend for what time she spent there, learning the ways in romance and becoming a regular Romeo. Soon all she had to do was bat an eyelash and she could have anyone follow her for hours. However, Sakuda had a feeling of longing to be near her brother, and headed back to her new homeland of Osaka after a year and a half of her adventures.

Sadly, things turned for the worst when Sakuda came home. Her father and Kaji were neck and neck for dominance. It turned out the silver-headed twin was an alpha, true to his word, and they both had a desire for the blue-eyed beauty. Very shocked by both males’ scents of desire and natural musk, Sakuda was forced into an early stage of heat at just thirteen and a half. Both males then took the opportunity to fight for her within their own home, while Sakuda was woozy and chilled to the bone by the overwhelming sensations. She ran, far till the ocean buried her body and comforted her muscles. Not far behind her, the scent of a fresh and needy wolf sent several males into a frenzy, all sniffing out to find Sakuda. Unfortunately, a demon trader and his goblin underling found the helpless wolf as she swam out to the waters, gasping and running out of energy fast. The demon swooped low towards her, ready to grasp her flailing form, when one of the friendlier mermaids had snatched her under, pressing their lips together to help Sakuda breath easier.

After all of the drama and the chase of the demon, Sakuda explained her situation with embarrassment to the mermaid, who smiled and told her of a place where all creatures live in harmony and no one tries to take advantage of each other. Sakuda wouldn’t believe it until she saw it. The mermaid eventually coaxed her into swimming there, and Sakuda was truly in for a shock.

The place was paradise. Miyagi Prefecture. Such a land that looked vast and gorgeous from just the beach. Sakuda washed up on the sugary white sand, found moments later by a random citizen. After being treated, washed, and put into clean clothes, Sakuda decided she wanted to stay in the picture of paradise. So without another word to her family, Sakuda bought her own apartment with her wealth and set her life up. Just being a young girl, Sakuda explored her area and soon found herself friends. By her second year in Miyagi, Sakuda began to feel lonely, since it seemed she was the only Werewolf in the whole community.

Feeling a bit hollow by this fact, Sakuda wandered all the way to the park and sat on the swings, not really moving, just letting her thoughts gather and trying to motivate herself to be strong, and positive. That’s when a pair of hands was touching her back, gently pushing her forward. Shrieking in shock, Sakuda fell forward and landed on her hands and knees, glancing over her shoulder with wide eyes at the giggling girl behind the swings. She introduced herself as Sukiyomi, and Sakuda felt odd.

Finding out they were both Werewolves, they both immediately launched into conversations and were seen joined by the hip everywhere they went. People said they were born to be sisters, but others could see deeper than that, especially since the taller of the two had more experience in various things. There was chemistry between the two, and it almost illuminated from how they acted around each other.

Sakuda found herself in complete bliss that her best friend in the whole universe was the same breed, and not to mention how tiny she was! Sakuda didn’t know it, and she wouldn’t for some time because she’s thick-headed like that, but a passion burned in her chest for the older female. Sadly, Sakuda found herself in several situations, and plenty of hesitating moments. Sakuda was a strong being, however, so she found her own dates and began to breathe in the varieties of people that continued to pour into Miyagi Prefecture.

By present day, Sakuda had plenty of experience under her belt, and even changed her appearance quite a few times, though she stuck with her classic black hair and punk-rock articles of clothing, thinking they looked best for herself. Even though Sakuda missed Suki all the time, they just didn’t seem to spend any time with each other any more. Being an Aries, Sakuda never showed how she really felt, and instead put on a fake smile and continued to live her life.

That was until the war.

Sakuda now is an adult, and a strong one at that. Her Werewolf pack in MP consists of just three wolves, but they were together and very committed to their job. With the war happening, each wolf was placed into their position. Suki, Sakuda had found out, became a nurse. To be relieved was an understatement. Sakuda was glad Suki wouldn’t be in the war, only helping people heal. She had yet to receive news of her position, but she hoped it would be within her qualifications.

She was answered when a red envelope was delivered to her door. In fine, bold print was the word Sakuda would never find an appropriate reaction to describe her feelings.

‘Drafted’.
