Chapter 90: An Unexpected Contract

“Do you realize, darling, you’ve completely ruined my masterpiece, yes?” Mr. Tachibana said, eyeing Sakura with a dark look.Sakura nodded. “I really, sincerely apologize, Mr. Tachibana. I’ll pay for the repairs.”The designer just gave her a look and then laughed loudly, almost insanely. “Darling, are you kidding me? Not just anybody can fix this! Only I can fix this because it is my masterpiece and I don’t want anyone to ruin it, again!”Sakura jumped a little in her seat at the exclamation. Jane, who was sitting on the sofa beside Sosuke, jumped as well.Sosuke said in Japanese to Mr. Tachibana, “Tachibana-sensei, you’re frightening her. If you must know, she’s Mr. Princeton’s adoptive daughter.”Mr. Tachibana widened his eyes at Sosuke with a questioning look. “What?” he replied in Japanese.“Yes, or haven’t you seen how the Princeton brothers were chasing after her backstage on Saturday night after the show?”“Really? Yes, but I thought they were chasing her because she was steal

Chapter 91: Close Encounter – Part 1

It was to the brothers’ surprise that Mr. Tachibana appeared at their doorstep, along, of course, with Ms. Ruka. Beth ushered them in. As he requested, the brothers all made their appearances.Mr. Tachibana couldn’t help himself and counted them.“One, two, three, four,” he said, now looking at Conrad. Then, “Five, six, and seven.” He ended with Darcy, standing farther away from them with a dark scowl on his face.“What’s this about?” Darcy asked the designer, coming down the few steps that separated the dining from the living area.Mr. Tachibana shuffled himself in his seat to make himself comfortable, of course. Then he cleared his throat and began. “Did you call me earlier today, Nicolas-kun?”At Nicolas’s nod, Mr. Tachibana asked, “What did you want me for?” “I was going to ask you if a certain young woman was there to see you about the gown.”At this, Mr. Tachibana laughed. “Of course she did. And might I say what a lovely young lady she is.”“Mr. Tachibana,” Sebastian said susp

Chapter 92: Close Encounter – Part 2

“Ohayo, Sakura-chan,” Sosuke greeted with a warm smile the moment he came in. “I hope I’m not too early.”Sakura waved his apology aside. “No. I’m usually an early riser. Everything is sorted. Are we leaving now?”“Traffic is only going to get worse,” he said.“Yes, that is true.” Sakura rushed over to pick up Toby. “This is Toby, my dog. Are you sure it’s okay for me to take him with me?”Sosuke laughed. “Oba-chan loves dogs. I’m okay with it. This one isn’t very active, is he?”At this comment, Sakura glanced at Toby. Sure enough, the dog didn’t look very excited about anything, which was unusual for him. A worried frown appeared on Sakura’s face, and she told herself she’d have to take the dog to see the vet once everything was sorted.She gave the dog an affectionate pet, then turned to Sosuke. “Shall we?”At Sosuke’s nod, they left the gallery, Sosuke carrying the heavier baggage.They arrived at the apartment within thirty minutes, thanks to Sosuke’s expert driving skills and th

Chapter 93: A Glimpse of My Beloved – Part 1

Conrad was pissed. Yes, he was totally pissed that they couldn’t get ahold of Ned. He had so looked forward to bringing Toby home today, without Sakura knowing of course, after he’d made a bargain with Ned. But now, that damn Ned was nowhere in sight, and the gallery was closed for five days, per the notice stuck to the front door.He sighed and threw himself on his bed, thinking about Sakura and Toby. He really did miss having the pup in his arms and stroking the soft, white fur. He missed the pup licking him and playing with him. And now, dammit, he was hearing the dog’s barking, too. Conrad was pretty sure he was going insane, for the barking was getting louder and more excited.He banged his head against the soft pillows and grunted under his breath. Oh God! Please, Toby, stop haunting me. The barking, however, was getting even louder now, and Conrad squeezed the pillows against his ears.“I’m going mad.” When the barking didn’t stop, he shot up and grumbled. He paced to the windo

Chapter 94: A Glimpse of My Beloved – Part 2

Like clockwork, Sebastian found himself awake and ready for action by five that morning. His body screamed at him, informing him he needed to exercise, needed to swim, since he hadn’t for a few days now.He got out of bed and, in minutes, he was ready. He was just passing the kitchen when he saw Darcy hovering around the refrigerator.“What are you doing?” he asked his brother.“I need a drink,” Darcy replied. “Going down to swim?”“Yeah.” Sebastian nodded. “See you there?”Darcy opened himself a bottle of cool water and nodded. “In a minute,” he said.“Race?” Sebastian suggested. Since they’d moved here a year ago, this was their way of bonding. A good race in the pool. Sometimes their other brothers would join them. Mostly, however, it was between the two. Sebastian admitted Darcy was getter stronger and faster now, and it was getting harder to win as well. As of last week, they were about neck and neck, which was a good challenge, Sebastian thought, pleased.After taking a big gulp

Chapter 95: Entrapment – Part 1

For the next few weeks, Sakura worked hard to learn Haruka’s business inside and out so she could be of more help to the woman. Haruka herself made sure Sakura was being taught everything there was to know about the billion-dollar company, since Sakura would be the one who’d inherit the empire. Of course, that was if Sakura wanted it after they’d confirmed their relationship with DNA testing. As of now, Haruka was just enjoying her time with her biological daughter, both during work hours at the office and leisure time at the apartment.Sakura herself found she enjoyed learning from and working with Haruka. The woman was like a mentor to her, and Sakura learned many aspects of the business world she hadn’t known before. When she wasn’t busy with the multibillion-dollar empire, she learned Japanese cuisine with the housekeeper, helping the woman preparing meals for the family. Then at night, she’d catch up on her own business, updating the Tanaka Gallery website with new photos she’d t

Chapter 96: Entrapment – Part 2

Conrad thought he was going nuts. For two weeks now, he kept hearing Toby barking. Tristan had told him it was his hallucination, mistaking other dogs’ barks for Toby’s. This only spurred Conrad even more to want to go to the gallery to see Sakura. Of course, that bloody Ned had decided to avoid them by staying in Los Angeles, so nothing was done about making Sakura come around and let them back into her life.When he’d suggested they just up and go to see her anyway, Logan had said, “You’ll frighten her with your unpleasant appearance, Conrad. We’ve agreed with Ned not to bother her until he makes her come around.”Of course, he knew both Sebastian and Darcy had been doing their rounds through Soho, just to get a peek at the gallery, hoping to see Sakura. It was odd lately that Sebastian seemed so chummy about something. He was grinning to himself all the time, which annoyed both Conrad and Darcy equally. When Darcy had asked the brother if he had a secret to share, Sebastian just sa

Chapter 97: Finally, Sakura My Love – Part 1

Sebastian was really pissed with himself as of early this morning. He hadn’t been able to sleep since he’d reluctantly logged off the internet. Why the hell did he type those words to her last night?I want to kiss you.Now that he thought about it, the sentence made him sound like a stalker. And bloody hell, he didn’t want himself to sound like that to Sakura. As of last night, or rather early this morning, however, that was very likely. He was a stalker to Sakura. He’d pushed her away with his uncontrollable love and desire for her. He couldn’t keep his feelings to himself. He’d wanted her to know how much he loved her. He’d wanted her to come back into their lives that badly. And of course, he’d totally screwed it up. Both for him and his brothers.Hell! It had gone so great, first with her emailing him about the rent. It was actually a reasonable price considering the market at the moment, but it was Sakura. Heck! He had to lower it for her, no questions asked. He’d do anything fo

Chapter 98: Finally, Sakura My Love – Part 2

It was a few moments later when Sakura opened her eyes. She stirred, and her gaze focused on Sebastian once again. He gave out a little chuckle. “Is that how you greet us, Sakura?”Sakura blinked, very aware that Sebastian was so close to her and he was stroking her forehead and the tendrils of her hair. She tried to move but realized someone was holding her hand, tight. She turned her gaze and saw Darcy.“Rest, Sakura. You’re unwell,” he said softly.A lump formed in her throat and tears welled in her eyes. Darcy. My dear Darcy. The words echoed within her head. She closed her eyes and the salty drops rolled down her cheeks.Tristan said, “Happy tears.” In which case, Logan gave him a good jab in the stomach with his elbow.Toby chose that moment to bark out at his master. Conrad put him down on the floor, and the dog eagerly went to Sakura. Sebastian grabbed the dog and rested the pup on his lap so Sakura could stroke him.“You’re safe,” she said softly. “I was so worried.”“I think

Chapter 99: A Family Reunion – Part 1

When Sakura woke up three hours later, she heard Toby barking excitedly, along with human voices. Feeling better and very curious as to the unusual noises, she got out of bed and headed to the door. With her long hair in a wild tangle, her dress haphazardly on her slim form, and her skin flushed with renewed energy, she came along the corridor and toward the living area.Her steps faltered at the threshold, and she came to a sudden halt. The sight she beheld before her overwhelmed her with emotion. Her heart gave a little tug, bursting with an unrecognized sense of warmth and belonging that threatened to make her cry. Her throat tightened as she willed her tears not to show.She’d thought the brothers had returned to their apartment, but apparently, she’d been wrong about that.Nicolas and Sosuke were sitting in the corner, playing chess of all things. So far, it looked like Nicolas was winning. Tristan and Logan were with Akira. She was showing them her portfolio. The two men looked
