A/N: Whoa I am done! Thanks to all my reviewers; this was totally fun to do! I hope you enjoy the last batch. XD I was aiming for something not so fluffy and sweet so hopefully I managed to pull it off. :P Sorry for the delay but school kept me busy and this sinus cold isn't helping either. Sigh.

The air seemed to catch in Dante's throat as he desperately blew into Lady's cold mouth; he couldn't breathe properly until she suddenly coughed and spat out the water in her lungs.

02 – Apples

The Forbidden Fruit may not have been an apple, but as she watched Dante consume one, Lady understood how the Devil may have tempted Eve to eat it.

03 – Beginning

"Looks like the fun's about to start!" Dante laughed as he unsheathed Rebellion and Lady followed his example with Kalina Ann; she could always count on him to bring her to the craziest 'parties'.

04 – Bugs

Lady was half-tempted to leave Dante stuck in that giant spider's web; it wasn't everyday that he was spread out before her like an offering to a hungry goddess.

05 – Coffee

'Her hair's the colour of coffee without the cream,' he remembered thinking to himself as Dante carried her out of the burning building.

06 – Dark

The dark was alive with her comforting whispers as she cradled his bloody head and waited for him to heal.

07 – Despair

Sometimes she feared that she'd be too weak to accomplish her goal, but Dante assured her that with him around she didn't have to worry about a thing.

08 – Doors

"Lady first," Dante grinned as he took a hold of the doorknob; she blew away the monsters on the other side of the door the instant he opened it.

09 – Drink

The two devil hunters drank from the same bottle of vodka after a mission well done; Lady scolded herself for internally giggling at the fact that she was sharing indirect kisses with Dante.

10 – Duty

He'd promised to help Lady kill all the demons in the world, but he hadn't stuck with her this long only out of a sense of duty.

11 – Earth

His outstretched hand looked like a macabre flower growing out of the earth, and Lady frantically tugged at his arm till Dante emerged from the trap while spitting dirt from his mouth.

12 – End

After ending her father's life with her own hands, Lady didn't think she deserved happiness in her life, but Dante begged to differ.

13 – Fall

She groaned in pain as she wondered how she'd manage to survive that colossal drop; something below her groaned as well and she realized who had broken her fall.

14 – Fire

Forget Agni or Ifrit; in Dante's opinion the fiery spirit inside Lady could char them both.

15 – Flexible

He quipped that he always admired her talent in gymnastics and that she'd have to show him some of her moves in bed later on; Lady decided to show Dante her skills right there and then by neatly kicking him in the head for trying to distract her from her practice.

16 – Flying

Dante never ceased to surprise her; Lady would never have thought that he knew how to operate an old rotor plane till he took her out flying one day.

17 – Food

He wondered if he covered himself in chocolate, would Lady nibble on him like she was doing to that chocolate-covered strawberry?

18 – Foot

Lady's booted foot connected with his chin as she gave him a solid high-kick but he didn't mind; the flash of her panties was more than enough compensation for the pain.

19 – Grave

They renewed their vows to destroy all demons in the world with their fingers intertwined over Eva's tombstone.

20 – Green

Lady idly commented that the fluorescent green demon blood looked like fireworks against the night sky as it splattered high in the air; Dante took out his shotgun and said that if she liked it so much he'd be happy to repeat it for her.

21 – Head

"Dante, are you even listening to me? Bring your head back down from space, will you?" Lady growled as she stared at his vacant expression, but she didn't know that his thoughts were closer than she thought as his blue eyes roved over her body.

22 – Hollow

Dante sat beside her hospital bed and managed to extract a promise from Lady that she'd be more careful next time, but both of them knew that it was a hollow promise.

23 – Honour

He was a Knight fighting for his Lady's honour; she said she'd cleanse the world of evil and Dante would make sure that she would be no liar.

24 – Hope

It was the little things she did that reminded Dante that his life wasn't all about demon slaying and saving the world, and he was grateful for it.

25 – Light

The light was painful to the eyes as it shone down at him from the top of the deep pit but Dante grinned anyway; he knew Lady would find him.

26 – Lost

They were hopelessly lost in the underground catacombs till Dante started knocking down walls with his bare fists; he always did have a way with mazes.

27 – Metal

She looked good in satin and even better in silk, but Dante believed the best material against her skin was the metal of her weapons as she dispatched the demons back to Hell.

28 – New

Lady was disappointed that her favourite shirt was ruined in their latest demon hunt, but Dante promised to buy her a new one before ripping off the remains of her blouse and tackling her to the ground.

29 – Old

She thought that all the pick-up lines he'd used on her were so cheesy and clichéd so it was easy to dismiss them, but it was ironic how she fell for the oldest one in the book: "I love you".

30 – Peace

Before the Temen-ni-gru Lady thought that she'd only find peace when she killed her evil father, and after the Tower fiasco she thought she'd only find peace once she'd eliminated all the demons on Earth; it never occurred to her that she could only find peace within herself till Dante showed her how.

31 – Poison

She bit her lower lip as Dante sucked the poison out; in the back of her mind she wished the snake had bitten her a little higher up her thigh.

32 – Pretty

Dante thought that Lady was at her prettiest when she was at her deadliest; the way she wielded Kalina Ann and her guns always turned him on.

33 – Rain

Lady was his kind of rain, and he didn't mind if he never saw the sun again.

34 – Regret

He would always regret his inability to save his mother, but as he watched Lady sleeping beside him, Dante swore that it would be the last regret he'd ever have.

35 – Roses

"Red looks good on you," Dante winked suggestively at Lady as he picked out the rose petals scattered by her shooting out of her hair.

36 – Secret

Since the Divine Library he'd tried to keep his interest in her a secret, but when he saw her all flushed and panting after a particularly frenzied demon hunt, he thought 'screw it!' and kissed her by surprise; he was never the subtle type anyway.

37 – Snakes

He hadn't known what to get Lady for her birthday, but Dante's prayers were answered when he was sent to destroy a demon; Lady loved the snake (demon) skin boots he presented her with.

38 – Snow

In Lady's opinion his hair may have been as white as snow, but he wasn't pure and he was hardly cold.

39 – Solid

She felt the steady, solid beating of his heart as they stood back-to-back in the Temen-ni-gru as the Prides surrounded them.

40 – Spring

Dante watched as the corrupted woman's blood, the one he had just killed, dribbled down the brick wall and he heard Lady whisper to him that it was OK, that the spring rain would eventually wash it away; Dante just wished that it could do the same for his memory.

41 – Stable

Lady cursed her shaking hands as she vainly tried to get her injured arms to hold the gun straight; another set of fingers wrapped around hers and with Dante lending her his strength, Lady leveled the gun's muzzle at the creature and fired a perfect shot.

42 – Strange

"It's weird how easy it was to beat that thing," Dante said as he pointed to the remains of the giant panther demon; when its body twitched and started to move again, Lady glared at her partner and told him to shut his trap next time.

43 – Summer

It was hotter than Hell outside, but as Lady watched Dante take off his t-shirt with beads of perspiration lazily rolling down his muscled chest, she thought that she'd take Hell over Heaven any day.

44 – Taboo

As she began to undress him, Lady wondered what taboo things he'd make her perform this time.

45 – Ugly

She didn't like the myriad of scars criss-crossing her body but one day Dante made her stand in front of a mirror as he caressed each and every one of them; at that time Lady wished she had more scars for him to touch.

46 – War

Her aversion to demons warred with her love for him; she wasn't sure which side would win till he kissed her on the mouth and she'd melted into his touch.

47 – Water

He didn't think he could punch through three-feet of solid granite, but when he heard Lady's desperate cries as the room she was in filled with water, Dante suddenly found the power to achieve it.

48 – Welcome

Dante loved coming home to find Lady already naked under the covers and the bed warm; it was even better than a "welcome back" at the door.

49 – Winter

Tis the season to be jolly, and as Lady's "man in red" came through the door she knew she'd be getting a present later on, even though she'd hardly been a good girl this year.

50 – Wood

Lady asked him if there was anymore wood she could put into the fire; Dante replied with a wink that he had one in his pants but he'd rather put it in something else.
