Jun took Iori’s hand and pulled her to him on the dancing floor, he felt her stiffness and wondered what made her like that. It was true that the night was trying and he was too tired from sweet talk and forced smiles. He’s had enough to last him for a lifetime. She must be the same, but something told him that there was something else.

Looking up, Jun realized that he had been right, and the reason was staring back at him with expectant eyes. Jun felt anger swirl within him and he would have loved nothing more than to go to Emi and give her a piece of his mind, but he wouldn’t make that mistake. Because it would be exactly what she wants.

She was provoking him so that he would talk to her, and then she could build upon that and weave her webs around them like the black widow she was.

Jun leaned down pulling Iori to him and he couldn’t help the satisfaction when she fit against him like a perfect match. He pressed a kiss at the back of he

    Jun still remembered everything about those days. It had been a hell of a strange week. Emi was on her phone all the time and every time he asks her, she tells him that it was her family back home.It was a nice and well-done surprise when he leaned that she didn’t even have a family in Japan. Or anywhere else for that matter…Aya kept saying that he was busy and Jun was getting sick of his friend’s avoidance. Planning to face him once and for all, he drove to his apartment. When he got there, he saw Aya leaving the apartment in his car so on a whim instead of calling out to him or just calling him on the phone, Jun decided to follow Aya.Perhaps that had been where he went wrong. If he had called Aya, surely, he would have stopped him from going where he was never going to return from.As he drove after him, Aya went to the part of town where old offices were. Jun wondered what his friend was doing when he parked his car in front of on

    “He’s dead…” Jun said with a voice he didn’t recognize as his own,A strangled scream came out of Tohru and he kneeled beside his brother shaking him and trying to wake him up as if that would do any good.“Aya! This is a lie! Aya open your eyes. Stop joking around, Aya!” Tohru kept yelling at his brother to open his eyes but it was too late. Aya was already dead.Jun gritted his tooth and looked up at the man who killed his best friend. The man who defended his family and friends until his last breath. The tattooed American was looking at him with a smirk on his face.He was smiling. The man was smiling after he just shot Aya. Rage blew through Jun like a vortex. His limps were so tense that he thought that his tendons were going to snap.“You’re a bunch of stupid wussies, I knew that you wouldn’t be able to pull it off in the end,” He told Tohru as he lifted his gun up.Toh

    “You told her?” Shou asked leaning forward on the counter and looking more than just surprised.“You thought that I would never tell her didn’t you?” Jun asked with a skeptical look at his friend“No… Not that, It’s just that…” Shou leaned back rubbing the back of his head“Thanks for the vote of confidence,” Jun reproached his friend who had the decency to look bashful.“So you told her everything. Even about the old man?” Shou asked as he regained his curiosity pretty quickly.“Not about him…” Jun responded looking down at his coffee mug,“You really… You told her about your past and you couldn’t even tell her about your father?!”“I couldn’t tell her so soon after dropping one bomb at her…” Jun said“You have to tell her!

    Iori made her way through the long hallway her steps swallowed by the flush carpet adorning the floor. This used to be so normal to her, though now she could feel and see the signs of luxury surrounding her.Things that she used to take for granted now seemed like the valuable things that they were. Not only the luxury of her family’s company but also how familiar everything seemed, how good it was to be greeted by her family members and to be working with them again.Iori reached a door at her right and reached into her bag to pull out the keys and froze. What if the keys didn’t fit? It had been such a long time, what if someone else changed the locks.This was ridiculous, she was obsessing over something so trivial, yet she couldn’t shake the apprehension as she pushed the key into the hole.It slipped in smoothly and turned when Iori twisted it sending a wave of relief through her when it did. Iori found herself smiling to herself as

    Jun sighed and leaned back on his desk in his and Iori’s shared office,“The book is going smoothly…” He informed the other line uncomfortably,“Then you should be thinking about what you’re going to do next,” His father said in his patronizing voice that never failed to irritate him.“I’m going to write a new book…” Jun responded,“It’s about time you came back to the family business,”“I am already helping, and we talked about this before,”“That’s not going to be enough if you’re going to take over someday you’re going to need some real training,”Jun heard the door beeping and opening, and he knew that this conversation was over,“I have to go, Iori is back,” he said“Well at least someone is helping their family run the family business,” His father added and Jun hung

    “We’re done, you lied to me,” Iori said looking at Jun with tears running down her cheeks,“I was going to tell you! I swear we didn’t have it from you on purpose!” Jun exclaimed, but Iori shook her head and turned around leaving,Jun reached out but he couldn’t catch her. He tried to move but his feet were frozen as he watched her walk away.“Iori! Iori! Please don’t leave! Iori!” Jun struggled against his feet but they wouldn’t move no matter how much he tried to shake them.His labored breath could be heard in the cold hallway where he stood and watched Iori’s back as it grew farther and farther away.“Iori!” He called out one more desperate time only to find himself sitting up in his bed startled. His best was heaving and he was drenched in sweat as if he ran miles and miles.Running a hand over his face he took a deep breath subsiding his panting a

The group of people who had attacked her had been a group of fanatics who were starting to hold a twisted version of their opinion on her.They hunted her identity down until they found her real name and started stalking her. Iori used to date here and there and just happened to be between relationships when they attacked her.But the fact that seeing her with her last boyfriend unleashed all this made a shiver run down her spine.It took her three years to agree to do any book signing or any personal meetings with her fans.

    “Iori-san, when I heard about your book signing, I couldn’t help myself,” Tohru said with a fake smile and Iori inwardly rolled her eyes.“Thank you for taking the time to come here, and buying a new book from my latest collection.” Iori said and smiled and his face grew neutral.“I didn’t come here for the autographs, I came here to warn you,” Tohru said leaning against the counter and Iori took the book from him opening it without breaking eye contact with him.“Oh, What about?” Iori asked looking up at him expectantly.“Don’t play dumb. By now, you should know what kind of person Jun is. He’s mentally unstable and quite used to manipulating people into believing that he’s an upstanding citizen.”“What are you trying to say Tohru-San?” Iori asked not even trying to make an effort to understand the truth,“You think you’re the o

    “How…” She whispered,“I picked him up on my way from the airport. He made his way up the mountain on his own and waited for me to come and pick him up so that he could come in.” Her father explained and Jun smiled.“You went through all this trouble…”“Sorry I couldn’t contact you, there was no cell reception on the way and I couldn’t reach you or your brother,” Jun said coming into the room as her father made way for him and went outside,“I’ve missed you,” He said, “God you look so beautiful,” He added and Iori laughed throwing her arms around him.He was there, he came for her… Iori felt on top pf the world.“How have you been?” He asked her“Fine! How have YOU been! I was worried about you, how did things go?!”“I settled everything,” He said‘What did you exa

    Iori leaned against the wooden walls of her room in the mountain estate her eyes on the scenery in front of her, the beautiful cascades of the mountain forest views as they peeked through the misty presence that always seemed to cover the mountain early in the morning left Iori breathless whenever she looked at it.Usually, this view was enough to make her feel so fulfilled and empowered that she could take on anything that may come her way. But these days she couldn’t help but note the loneliness that was taking root in her heart.Her mind kept wandering to Jun and wondering how he was doing, how his meeting with Tohru’s father went. Since he had contacted her to ask if she arrived well there had been no signal from him. It’s been three days since then. Iori’s phone had been taken away two days ago. Her aunt claimed that she needed to disconnect from the city and reconnect with the mountain spirits.In any other circumstances, Iori would

    Iori stood beside Jun as he spoke on the phone her hand on his tense shoulders silently reassuring him."So everything is settled? How about Kokuro are they going to plead guilty?" Jun asked and waited for the answer,"If they want to settle things with money drag them on for a bit longer and make sure that they will be under our hands next time. Tabloids can be valuable in the trade for the long term, I don't want to destroy them. Just make sure that they take a big hit... a public one..."Iori sighed, Jun was out for blood, after both the tabloid and Tohru fell for his trap, he was playing with them like a cat playing with his meal until he falls hungry and devours them. Who knew Jun could be so ruthless in business, he surely seems to be his father's son.But, Iori was worried that this was more than that. She was worried that Jun was exercising his revenge in the most rightful way he could find, not even daring to admit to himself that he was taking h

    A few days later Iori walked out of the elevator with her brother walking beside her. Haruki nodded at the slightly surprised secretary and they went straight for the office. Then they went inside without knocking.Inside, the president sat alongside Jun as they talked. Iori and Jun’s eyes met for a brief moment but Iori quickly averted her gaze from his. She wasn’t there to exchange gazes with him, she was there for a reason and she couldn’t afford to let her feelings for Jun be in the way of what she needed to do.“Iori, I know we had an appointment but I didn’t know that you were bringing a guest,” Satoru said with a welcoming smile his poker face ever-present.“Since I came to the conclusion that you can’t be trusted, our meetings can’t go on unwitnessed anymore so I brought my lawyer with me to ensure that everything is legal here,”“Don’t you think that’s

    Jun guided Iori toward the side of the terrace and they descended down the stairs that led to the Japanese style garden.“No one will bother us here,” He said and Iori smiled up at him.Jun led her toward a bench where he leaned and spread his arms for her to lean on him and she obliged relishing in the comfort of his arms around her.“Are you cold?” He asked as she snuggled into him.“No,” Iori answered her eyes closed as she breathed in the scent of his perfume. A scent that became so familiar to that she would sometimes miss it at night whenever she’s alone.“Back then all I could think about was how if I hadn’t wanted to become a writer none of this would have happened” She finally said and Jun squeezed her tighter and she felt his protest before she heard it.“There’s no way that any of tat is your fault,”“I know now… But back then it was

    “Where are you taking me?” Iori asked Jun as they walked toward the center of the room.Jun grinned at her and she looked up at him in confusion. A small smile broke on her beautiful rosy lips making Jun want to wipe the make-up off them with one fell swoop of his mouth.He had been trying to hold back since the evening started, but he was reaching his limits. He wanted her more than anything, so at least he could have her all to himself for a few short moments like this before she had to return to her duties.“May I have this dance?” Jun asked her extending his hand to hers.Without hesitation, Iori put her hand on his which made him inwardly smile. Iori never hesitated to take his hand anymore, no matter the reason, Jun was always sure that she would reach out back to him if he extended his hand.It may seem like a small gesture, but to Jun it meant much more than that. Iori’s honest and instinctive reactions to him

    “I would like to announce approaching retirement from my position as the second clan leader,” Akagi-sama said and a wave of gasps filled the room.Iori felt calmness fill her, she knew this was coming and she couldn’t describe how nervous she had felt when Akagi-sama had told her about her plan when she arrived the previous day.She had agonized over whether she was ready or if she was going to be enough, but, when she felt the moment come, all f her doubts disappeared and she felt herself being surrounded by a calmness that felt ethereal.This is her duty, the role she had been ready for for a long time. There was nothing to be scared about, there was nothing to fear because she was born to be the mountain clan’s leader. More importantly, she was born to be the priestess of the mountains.“I had been the leader of the mountain clan for such a long time that I feel that it’s long overdue for me to leave my place to some

    Silence reigned over the room as soon as Akagi-sama stood there in front of them her presence reassuring and welcoming, yet at the same time overwhelming and imposing.It’s been a long time since Iori felt as if her aunt’s presence was imposing to her. Her training and frequent contact with the older woman had assured that Iori doesn’t view her aunt like the others do.Rather than saying that Iori got used to her presence, it was rather that Iori began to look at her aunt like an equal and sometimes a rival. And without the respect that had been ingrained in her back when her mother was still alive, she would have overstepped the bounds with her aunt long ago.That’s because that’s how things were supposed to be in their case. They may be mentor and disciple, but they were also a leader and her successor. And a few clashes between them were inevitable.Iori knew that her aunt liked her, she even considered her like the daught

    “I hear your talk with akagi-sama went well?” Haruki said as he made his way toward them with Rina by his side.They both looked like a couple out of a spy movie, both tall and elegantly dressed. Her brother and his fiancée may have a peculiar relationship, a relationship where it was hard to decide whether they were together because it was decided for them or because they were the only compatible people who could put up with each other. But there was one sure thing, they both suited each other to the point of it being even perfect to look at.“Gee, thanks for the support,” Iori mumbled under her breath and Rina laughed,“Oh come on Iori! We all know that no one is willing to confront Akagi-sama other than you. I face cold blooded criminals on a daily basis and I can’t stand to have a talk with that woman for longer than necessary. She sends chills down my spine every time she looks at me with that piercing gaze o
