Final chapter! I had such a hard time figuring out how to end this... I hope it does not disapoint.

Reviews are always welcome. I hope to write more fanfics soon. Thanks to all who wrote reviews!

Ch. 4

Wolfram blinked at Yuuri, his eyes curious, yet still brimming with an unseen sadness. The young king looked at his fiancé apologetically.

"I'm so sorry Wolf, for hurting you, I know that you have strong feelings for me, and that I haven't ever really reciprocated them." Wolfram interrupted him by putting a finger to his lips.

The hand slowly reached towards the faded purple bruise. The words came out with great struggle as Wolfram tried to speak.

"I…hurt you…Yuuri. I could not control my emotions, and I injured you."

"Wolfram I…"

"Yuuri, there is no excuse for my actions, If you wish to annul our marriage…I will not stop you. I am undeserving of your devotion and love."

"Wolf…"

"Even though I love you, I know that I have done something unforgivable…"

"Wolfram sh-"

"You have nothing to be sorry for Yuuri, I am the only one in this relationship who is a fault for this. I should never has raised a hand to you."

"SHUT UP WOLFRAM!"

Wolfram stoped mid-sentance finally registering that Yuuri was trying to talk to him. "What is it Yuuri?"

"As I was saying, I haven't ever really reciprocated your feelings and I want you to know how I feel." Yuuri's face suddenly contorted into an expression the blonde had never seen before. Anger? Or was it concentration? Worry? Sadness?

Wolfram gasped as Yuuri pulled back his fist. Wolfram closed his eyes and waited for Yuuri's retaliation. He knew that he deserved what was coming. He had caused an injury to his beloved and would accept any punishment. Pain erupted from Wolfram's cheek but it was not the kind of pain he expected.

Instead of a fist colliding with the left side of his face, it was a palm, a stinging sensation remaining as the demon king removed his hand. Yuuri had just slapped him…again. Wolfram opened his eyes to a smiling face.

Yuuri reached forward again, slowly this time and touched where he hand had just slapped his beloved.

Wolfram just sat there wide-eyed as Yuuri stroked the still stinging skin. After a minute of staring at each other, the blonde prince's shock melted away, and he fell forward into his fiancé's chest, sobbing. He now knew that his king loved him, and nothing else seemed to matter in the world.

The young king smiled gently at the blonde teen holding him. Yuuri's arms wrapped around Wolf's shoulders and he held tight to the fire wielder clinging to his shirt.

"No matter what happens now or in years to come, one thing will never change and I am sorry that it took me so long to realize it Wolf. I have always had feelings for you, and I never even fathomed that they could turn out to be love." He pushed Wolf gently away from him, keeping his hands on his shoulders. The blonde looked into Yuuri's eyes.

Yuuri smiled at Wolfram, but the blonde pulled back even more, sitting a foot away from the double black.

Wolfram could not believe it, even though he had never apologized to Yuuri, he had been completely forgiven. He smiled to himself and then to Yuuri.

"You are too forgiving…you wimp." The word wimp was spoken half-heartedly and Yuuri could not help but to laugh.

Abuse.

The word normally describes violence in either words or actions, towards a loved one and is something that should never take place. Wolfram knew that what he did was wrong, and made a vow to his fiancé that night, never to raise a hand in violence to him again.

Wolfram even made a mental note to use less harsh words when speaking to Yuuri. He would try to hold his tongue and control his anger more than he ever had before. The blonde did not want to risk losing that which he loved more than life itself.

Life would never be easy for these two, but since when was life ever easy for anyone? They would have many more problems with their relationship throughout their lives. There would be more harsh words and actions exchanged. More fights would ensue, and more tears would be shed, but as Yuuri stated to Wolfram, one thing would never change.

These two had undeniable feelings for each other that no force on earth could alter, and yet again...love triumphed above all else.

The End.
