2021-09-10 23:48:37"I can't believe that I will get to organize two famous authors' personal notes!" Said an overly excited Kajima as he stood by the door to their spare room in the new apartment admiring the piles of boxes and the rows of empty shelves.
"Move, you're in the way," Jun said all but kicking the ecstatic young man who didn't seem to have noticed as he looked around him with stars in his eyes.
Iori and Kimiko sidestepped the dreamy man and got into the room. Not seeming to register Jun's exasperated glares, Kajima took one of the already open boxes and took a notebook out.
"This is the reference for one of JUn-sensei's books. even though I'm your editor I never got to see the prep work you did for your book. Your fans are going to be jealous of me when they hear that I got to organize them with you."
Iori shuffled behind Jun who wasn't paying attention to his editor's gushing, or rather ignoring it.
To think that Kajiima was a fan of Jun's works...

A Writer's Contract: Twisted Inspiration The Tyrant Came
Aika Kurosaki was a tall woman in her early forties. With ever-present red lips and nails, a pricey business suit that should cost a normal worker their whole salary, and a perfectly coifed hair that reeked of elegance and pricey products. In other words, Aika Kurosaki was the epitome of a badass businesswoman, who has got the devious personality to go with it. She strode into the apartment just as Iori was about to have her glass of wine after handing Jun his drink. The sip she took almost went down the wrong way as Kurosaki-san eyed herand the cup in her hands with a cool gaze. “Get me some of that,” she ordered, “And let’s get this meeting started. I had to skip my manicure appointment in order to make time for this, and I’m not in a very good mood.” She said as she put her designer bag on the large dining table and took a seat at the head crossing her legs, pursing her lips, and raising her eyebrows at them as if silently asking why they weren’t tri

"We have a whole lot of six months to marketing your book," Kurosaki-san began sounding all calm and professional, unlike when she was ranting at them just a few moments ago. It seems like Iori's outburst worked a miracle. And gave Jun a show that he wasn't likely to forget anytime soon. This sigh of Iori putting the shark lady into her place left jun in awe. There were times when he was in the receiving end of her dressing him down. But that moment was nothing like that. Theirs were bickering moments that held a little bit of light-heartedness and a great part of fun that neither of them was willing to admit at the time. But Iori now was marking her territory, highlighting hr limits with a bright rs marker that stung on stop on. She wasn't ready nor willing to let Kurosaki or anyone ls trespass on hr limits or if into her private life. She drew the line with the president and that was it for her. No one was allowed to give their two cents about what they tho

"Excuse me?" Iori asked her frown deepening as she asked, "Did you say, dance classes?" Kurosaki-san nodded thumbing through something on her tablet. "Why would we have dance classes together?" Jun asked intrigued but not enough to risk Iori's ire by agreeing with Kurosaki-san "I watched every appearance you had on the screen, and except for when the media surprised you at the restaurants, all of your other appearances don't have any kind of chemistry in them...." Jun winced if by chemistry she was meaning Iori's flashback and how he had to practically haul her into her restaurant and carry her into the private room then she was sorely mistaken. Iori remained still as she watched them her face void of any expression as Kurosaki-san went on. "Let me show you. It will be faster this way," Kurosaki san sad turning her tablet to them and propping it. There was a video playing. A slightly familiar video of the restaurant's ent

"I told you," Iori said calmly " You're going to do it..." Jun stole a glance at his partner who didn't seem impressed at all by what was happening before her. She seemed rather... bored. Jun on the other hand wasn't bored, as he watched the huge training room with all the mirrors that made it look even bigger. Yupp, not a place where he wanted to be... He wanted to say that he couldn't believe that they managed to convince him to come here. but, the truth is that in fact, no one had to convince him to come here. He made that decision all on his own, although not willingly. "shut up...." he murmured under his breath and Iori's lips twitched slightly showing how much she was enjoying this moment at his expense. When Iori had said that he would be going, Jun had thought that she was just trying to bluff her was through talking like that. But as soon as she showed him what she was seeing on the tablet, it didn't take him long to reach the same co

Iori was a wreck. That's how she could describe herself in the middle of the practice room as she watched Kujou-san's extended hand. This was a bad idea. A very very bad idea... She should've never agreed to the dancing lessons. No matter how reasonable Kurosaki-san was, and no matter how clear it was that she and Jun needed to do some damage control if they were going to convince people that they were dating. She still should've refused the lessons. Body contact was still too much for her, and now their dace trainer was extending his hand and expecting her to casually take it and let him lead her around the dance floor. Nope, not a good idea at all... Iori found herself extending her hand to Kujou automatically before it became awkwardly too long. He took her hand gently barely touching and Iori sighed in relief when she didn't start hyperventilating or making a scene. "did you learn classic dance moves before?" Kujou asked her and she nodded

When Iori got out of the examination room, Jun straightened from where he was leaning against the wall and stepped toward her his focus on her bandaged ankle. "What did the doctor say?" He asked quietly and Iori realized that people were watching them closely from the waiting room. Damn this famous phase they have to go through... "Just as Kujou-san said, I will be okay in two days max," She answered smiling at him in an attempt to ease the worry on her features, He smiled back, then leaned forward to pick up her. "Hey! I told you I'm okay!" she exclaimed but Jun still carried her toward a nurse station where a smiling nurse approached them with a rolling chair smiling. Iori was red with embarrassment as people ohed oh-ed and ah-ed at them in awe. This was one of the most humiliating moments in her life. Jun put her on the chair and the nurse started pushing her toward the pharmacy. "While you go get the prescription, I

"Could you leave me alone for a second?" Iori said exasperated"I will when you get off your feet and go back to sitting on the couch with your ankle elevated with an ice pack,?' Jun said sounding like a fussy mother,"I'm just grabbing a reference to work with since I'm not doing anything anyway," Iori said as she flicked through the folder before deciding that it was what she was going to need."I can bring you anything you want. Just stay on the couch," he argued sounding exasperated.Since they came back from the hospital, Jun had been so exasperating that Iori wanted to throw him through the window just to have a moment of peace. He kept fussing over her and even asked if she wanted him to carry her to the shower.Yupp, that had been a deal-breaker...It was clear that Jun was worried about her ankle. He apologized about it until she threatened to twist his ankle if he said I'm sorry one more time.But, this was

The feel of the metallic and heavy object in her palms, the chaos around her, and the shadows of the slowly fading figures blending into the darkening room as the sun slipped further to the other end of the globe. But more importantly, the unmoving figure on the ground with the pool of blood spreading underneath it. 'Ah...That's it, again' she thought ' the moment when I became a monster,' "Iori," someone said beside her and touched her hand, the hand with the gun. Or wasn't it? Iori turned to find Rina watching her with concern. That's right, Rina was there with her back then. She was the one who held her gun-laden hands and stood by her side in the midst of it all. "It's not there anymore," Rina whispered squeezing her hand that wasn't curled around the cold metallic object that was slowly warming to her touch, as if it was blending with her flesh and becoming part of it.... Iori realized that she wasn't back in that apartment

“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
A Writer's Contract: Twisted Inspiration Ceremony
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
A Writer's Contract: Twisted Inspiration Evening confession
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
A Writer's Contract: Twisted Inspiration Successor
“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
A Writer's Contract: Twisted Inspiration Engagement
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
A Writer's Contract: Twisted Inspiration Solidarity
“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
