That night for the first time in a long time. She and Yuhi slept side by side. There were so many things they wanted to say to each other, but they did not; she got lost in his warmth and fell into a deep sleep.

She spent the next morning staring at him.

Still, why is he so handsome? She thought this before, but recently hasn"t he gotten better looking. Maybe there is something wrong with her head.

"What?"

"Mmm, just something." She leaned closer to him. Maybe she needs to get a better look?

"You want to kiss?"

"I think I do," Sumire mumbled.

Yuhi puts the brush down and turns to her. He started with a light kiss until she started to urge him.

"If we keep doing this, though, we might have another problem," Yuhi said as he parted her lips with his fingers.

"Problem?"

"Mmm, I might attack you all the time regardless of time and place."

"Don"t you do that anyway?"

Yuhi pulled away from her, and she sat up, her cheeks puffed into a pout. "Yuhi!!"

"I need to finish the sketch."

The moment he returned to his drawing, though, Sumire wrapped her arms around him.

"Hey, do you want to distract me?"

"I do. I want to bother you."

At that comment, Yuhi turned around and placed some files beside her. "Read those."

"Case files?"

His lips curve to a smile as he pulls her off the couch and onto his lap. "If you want to distract me, you should be sexier about it."

Sumire laughed softly. "So that"s the kind of thing you like, Yuhi-san?"

"Is there something else you need to say?"



Whenever Yuhi-san got like that, she knew better than to act coy, and that is why she brought him here, the delinquent hideout in downtown Tokyo.

"Hey, the boss is back!"

"What really?!!"

"But get this, she brought a guy?"

"Nagawa Sano again?"

"No, it"s the boyfriend!"

Uh, Sumire"s sweat fell when she heard the whispering from behind the door. This is a bit awkward. Before she could say anymore, however, the others suddenly left, saying all types of excuses.

"They seem like good guys," Yuhi commented.

"Mm."

"Nobody"s made a move on you either."

"I think they are too scared."

"Scared, huh?" He repeated as he leaned closer.

"Yuhi?"

Oh, this position is kinda making her feel odd. Did he deliberately back her against the wall like this? It is a good thing she sent the guys away; she wonders what they all thought. The few times she came here, she brought Sano along and pretended to be intimate with him.

Sumire sighed deeply. She can see it now; there will be some new gossip. Moreover, she has to make sure they don"t blab about her fake intimacy with Sano.

"Yuhi?"

Yuhi leaned forward and brushed their lips against each other; she immediately understood but shook her head. "Not in this place."

"Why?? Are you afraid your subordinates would see?"

"The scent of blood is everywhere," Sumire mumbled. It makes her feel nauseous. Those guys most likely dragged somebody in here and beat them. She will find out later, but for now. "I didn"t want to bring you here."

"I know, but I don"t like it when I don"t know what you"re doing. I need to know Sumire."

"I"m sorry, Yuhi."

She understands the reason why. He is concerned; after all, those people are after her. Sumire extended her hand out and caressed his cheeks.

"I thought you didn"t want to get affectionate."

Is he sulking? Sumire wrapped her arms around his neck and placed a soft trail of kisses there. "Sumire, what are you doing?" He growled.

"Mm, getting affectionate."

"In front of your subordinates, dear? That is quite bold of you."

Sumire sighed deeply. "You don"t know how many times they brought girls over here. Why can they do it and not me?"

Yuhi laughed. "Are you trying to compete?"

"Mmm, maybe."

Also, she likes burying her face into his neck like this because it means inhaling his scent. Yuhi ran his hands across her back, and Sumire mumbled. "The people here are afraid of me. Did you see?"

"Yeah."

"But you can still treat me this way?"

Even though they are in this place where she has committed so many crimes as the Queen of the underworld society? How many people did she torture in this very room? This pillar Yuhi pressed her against; how many people did she tie up and beat them up? Even now, there are traces of blood and markings. With Yuhis good eyesight, naturally, he can see it, and yet he still treats her so preciously.

Yuhi responded by lifting her face from his neck and cupping her cheeks. "I can; you"re very pretty."

"If I were ugly-"

"I would still think you"re prettier than the stars in the sky."

"Since when did you get so corny?"

"Since I learned that my girlfriend, no, my wife-to-be has severe self-esteem issues."

Her gaze softened at those words. In other words, he means to say from the very beginning? Indeed this is the type of person Terashima Yuhi is. This is one of the many reasons why she fell for him.

But wait a moment. "Wife, to be?"

"Dating with marriage in mind." Yuhi reminded her.

Sumire blinked, surprised. Quite some time has passed since he last brought that up. But indeed, she was the one who said something crazy like that.

"So, wife." Yuhis lips curve to a smile. "I would like more clarification on that she brought another guy to mess with?"

Her face color turned pale when she saw that deadly smile on his face. Gah, he can be so scary! Those stupid idiots, why did they say something like that in front of him? Don"t they value their leader"s life?

She knew that people who meet Yuhi for the first time could see it. This guy is not normal. Maybe it is because he does not smile, but there is a powerful unapproachable aura around him.

Sumire looked down as she explained the situation.

"So you two kissed—"

"N-no! We were just pretending!"

Yuhi frowned and flicked her forehead. "Idiot, Nagawa naturally tried to take advantage of the situation."

Uh, why is he starting to understand Sano far better than herself? But he is right about that. How many times did she catch Sano sneaking a feel at her breasts?

"I was going to tell you when everything was clear."

She wanted to make sure that she successfully tricked those people.

Yuhi flicked her forehead again, and she pouted. "I know you"re mad, but at least let me explain."

He shook his head. "That isn"t it; we just had that talk recently, after all. I trust you, Sumire, but I want you to start learning to trust yourself too. Right now, we are still kids, so the worse hasn"t happened. But if you became a member of the mafia and did something like this, something bad could have happened to you."

The mafia, huh? She wonders if Yuhi knows that the mafia has been after her since she saved Shin.
