Author’s note: Alright, I’m giving the epilogue to this Kissed by the Baddest Bidder Fic. I want to thank everyone who stuck it out while I was in and out of the writing mode for this. This had to be a fic I had the most difficulty with. Not only that, I’m not really into Kissed By The Baddest Bidder as much as I used to be. Don’t get me wrong, I like the series; but I started playing around the time I was ending High School and starting college. Plus, it was filling that romance I always dreamt of having while my real love life floundered like a dying fish. So in all seriousness, this is the last time I’m doing an KBTBB fic. Sorry Eisuke, but I need a man who’s real. Enjoy!

Chapter 10: Epilogue

A month had passed since the cleansing and things seemed to be calming down. The house had a wonderful atmosphere to it that was warm and welcoming. Things at the hotel were really beginning to pick up and now, you and Eisuke even had time to plan out your wedding! With all this good news, you literally felt as if nothing could change this good mood. But oh, were you so wrong.

Eisuke was returning from a late night at work, you had dinner on the table for him while you read through an infamous bridal magazine, looking for a dress to wear on your big day. Eisuke soon finished his meal and made his way over to you on the couch. He sat down, crossed his leg and snaked his arm around you.
“Looking at Bridal Magazines?” he questioned with a knowing smirk.
“We’ve been discussing plans,” you admitted “it’s only a matter of time before we offically announce the date.
“You know I can’t wait to see your dress.”
“Well not until I walk down the isle, it’s bad luck for the groom to see his bride before the wedding. ”

“We’ll see about that.” Eisuke smirked before kissing you.
“Oh! I forgot the list of wedding planners upstairs!” you remembered “I’ll be right back!” you got up from the couch and began to make your way to the stair case when you froze in your tracks. You weren’t sure what made you stop, but it felt as if someone was there.
“________,?” Eisuke called out “___________ what’s wrong?” you didn’t answer your Fiance’s question but instead let out a choke and clutched onto your throat “____________! What’s happening?!”

“E-Eisuke!” You managed to choke out as you tried to fight with the invisible force. Realizing the situation at hand, Eisuke ran into the study and opened the drawer in his desk and found a cross and bible that Soryu gave him. He ran back into the room where you still were struggling with the unseen force.  He held the cross and bible close to you.
“In the name of The Father, Son and Holy Spirit, I command you to leave!” he hollered. Instad of letting you go, a growl ripped through the air and the unseen force suddenly pushed you to the wall and lifted you off the ground into the air. EIsuke was horrified.

“E-Eisuke!” you choked out “I-I can’t b-breathe!” hearing your pained words almost broke the Billionaire’s heart, but then he felt a wave of protectiveness wash over him and then, he held the cross and bible up again.
“IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST, I ORDER YOU TO LEAVE!!!” once he finished that sentence, the unseen force let go of your throat, forcing you to fall into Eisuke’s arms. You let out a few coughs and hacks while trying to refill your lungs and brain cells with air. Eisuke held you close to his chest as if it was the only thing that could protect you.  

“We need to get out of here.” you gasped out.
“I don’t need to even say that twice!” Eisuke opined. He picked you up bridal style and began to run to the front door where he left his car keys. The lights in the house began to flicker on and off until Eisuke managed to take both his house and car keys, get out of the house, lock the door and run into the car. He placed you in the passenger seat while he got in the driver seat, started the car and drove off.

You never returned to the house after that night. It was too dangerous to go back and whatever was in the house, it was angry. After much serious talk and thinking, you and Eisuke decided not to sell the house. For the sake of everyone, you were better off bulldozing the house. Eisuke hired very brave men to grab things that belonged to both of you and the paranormal team called a priest in to bless the objects so the demon had no chance of following you both.

One night, a bad thunderstorm hit Las Vegas. Horrendous rain and wind pounded against the windows of the Tres of Spades Las Vegas while the roads began to flood. Thank God you and Eisuke were on the top floor. You watched the storm with a cup of cocoa in your hands as the evening sky was lit with lightning; every rumble of thunder made you realize that the storm was getting closer to the earth. As you watched, you felt a pair of arms snake around your waist and pull you closer to it’s owner. You suddenly felt Eisuke rest his head on your shoulder.
“Quit looking at that stupid storm.” Eisuke whispered hotly in your ear “And look at me.”
“You’re jealous of a thunderstorm?” You giggled.
“Tch. Like the great Eisuke would be jealous of a storm.” he turned you around and gave you a loving, passionate kiss. But as you sunk into the kiss, a loud rumble of thunder hit. It shook the building, spooked you and caused you to watch as the largest bolt of lightning both you and Eisuke seen in your entire life.

“Holy mother of God!” You yelped.
“That even startled me.” Eisuke muttered to himself. You moved out of Eisuke’s arms and looked out at the direction the lightning bolt hit.
“Eisuke, I think that bolt hit something… It was in the direction of the house!”
“Probably hit a tree or a powerline.” Eisuke scoffed.
“Possibly, but I find it a little weird it would hit in that direction….” Eisuke suddenly pulled you closer to him and kissed you passionately.
“Don’t think of frivolous things like that, when you should only be thinking about me.” you hummed as he gave you another kiss before taking you into the bedroom.

___________________________________________________

An hour later both you and Eisuke were lying in bed together, completely naked. He was caressing your back and enjoying the moment, until his phone rang.
“Just who in their right mind would call at this hour.” he grumbled in distaste. He grabbed his cellphone off the night stand and answered it “Ichinomiya…….. Oh Kenzaki…….What? What do you mean? Turn on the news? For what- the house?” he hung up after a moment, grabbed the remote and began to turn the TV on.“
"What’s wrong?” you questioned.
“That was Kenzaki.” Eisuke replied “He was all excited, something’s up with the house apparently.” When Eisuke pressed the button for the local news station, you both watched as a news  report showed a house enguled in flames, you recognized the home right away.

“Eisuke!” you pointed “It’s the house! That lightning bolt must’ve hit it!”
“Holy shit!” Eisuke hollered now sitting up “What are the odds of that?!” as you watched the house burn on live television, a sudden realization hit you.
“Eisuke, I don’t think it was a mere coincidence…. I think it was God’s will… Call me crazy, but I think it was His way of cleansing the house once and for all. He knew that our efforts were fruitless, so this had to have been His way of helping. He knew that home was bad news.” Eisuke looked at you for a moment, unsure of what to say or whether to make heads or tails of your theory. Then, he gave you a smile.
“Maybe you’re right, it was His form of cleansing.” he leaned in to kiss you and then, changed the channel to something more light hearted.

The End.

Edit: fun-fact: the ending was slightly based off a real paranormal case from years ago. A house that was around since the Colonial Era in America and had multiple owners was haunted with possibly the first owner. The owners around the time the case took place abandoned it after it was too much to bear and one day, a lightning storm hit and set the house on fire while it was abandoned. Only thing left of that house to this day is just the chimneys standing.
