Chapter 1

“Rin don't worry, I'm sure you'll get this job,” Kagome muttered. Rin glared at her best friend and roommate., who she knew was anything but excited for her to get this job. She on the other hand, wanted nothing more than to get this job. Taisho Co. was the most famous and high class company in all of Japan. For her to even be considered for an interview is amazing. She wasn't like Kagome, she couldn't get away with just modeling.

“You sound anything but happy for me,”Rin replied. Kagome sighed exasperatedly. Rin knew what that sigh meant. It meant that she was going to get the legendary Kagome talk down speech that got you to rethink every possible plan you had come up with for the entire day, but not this time. Rin wanted, no, needed this job.

“You graduated from the most high rank school, with amazing scores, and at the top of your class, when most people can't even get away with passing a simple exam might I add.” Rin smiled when she realized Kagome was referring to herself. She was never good at school related things, but strutting her designer heels, that was a different story. “You could get into almost any company you want. Why not a high class company like, like...”

“Like?” Rin pushed, struggling to get her red pumps on, which was seeming to be an impossible feat with her pencil skirt on.

“Like the Demon Slayer Co.!” Kagome answered excitedly, but Rin continued to struggle with her pumps. “Their a high class company, that people from stealing your money. If that's not high class then I don't know what is.”

“Taisho Co. is a high class company, actually the highest,” Rin retaliated.

“I mean one that doesn't have one of the strongest and deadliest demons ruling over it!” Kagome exclaimed. Yes, Taisho Co. was a demon company, but looking past all that, it was one of the most prosperous and famous companies there was in all of Japan. Every other company, human companies to be exact, couldn't compare to Taisho, and she vowed she would be a part of the most prosperous of companies, and wouldn't settle for less. She had to get that job no matter what.

“And I recall telling you that there was nothing you could say or do that would stop me from going to this interview,” Rin said, painting her face to look as natural and fresh as possible. She didn't want to look like a clown, or cheap.

“Nothing?”

“Nothing.” Then suddenly her phone began to ring. She frowned when on the caller id it said Taisho Company.

“Not even another canceled interview call from the Taisho Company itself?” Kagome asked with a smile, like the once in a while witch she was. Rin was hesitant to answer the call, because twice, this being the third time now, thirty minutes before her interview they would cancel on her, telling her that Mr. Taisho was not available for an interview those mornings. Something about dire issues he had to attend to. Bull Crap! She knew he was just pushing it off.

“Hello, Rin Hamasaki speaking,” she answered as sweetly as possible. As usual her barer of bad news was the same female each time. She was beginning to think that this woman was her dark angel. Boy would she pay big bucks to find her white angel.

“Yes Miss Hamasaki, this is Kanna Takaba,” here it comes “I was calling to sadly inform you that your interview with Mr. Taisho has been canceled this morning, he had dire...um, Miss Hamasaki if you could hold for a moment please?” This was new.

“Yes of course.” Rin looked over to Kagome who was giving her a questioning stare, but she just shrugged. This phone call was new to her. She had never been put on hold before during her let down call. She would find out why a moment later.

“Miss Hamasaki?”

“Yes,” Rin answered urgently.

“There has been a sudden change. You interview is still scheduled for this morning at ten. Are you still available?” Her eyes widened with shock and disbelief. Rin looked down at her now completely dressed form.

“Yes, I am definitely still available,” she answered, trying to stay as calm as possible.

“Perfect! We will see you in a few then?”

“Most definitely,” Rin replied. When they hung up, she squealed hopping up and down, and laughing at a very confused Kagome. Her friend tried to calm her down, but she would not be brought down from her amazing high so easily.

“Rin what's going on?” Kagome asked.

“I got the interview!” Rin exclaimed.

“You what!”

“My interview is still on, which means Taisho Co. here I come.” Kagome stared at her, horror plastered on her face. She smiled evilly at her friend. “Which means nothing is going to stop me from getting this job.”

“Riiin,” she whined. Rin sighed, walking out into the kitchen for a breakfast shake, looking down at her watch. She had to leave soon, but decided she would let her friend vent. She leaned against the kitchen counter and listened.

“Do you know who you're trying to work under?”

“I'm sure you'll tell me,” Rin said, taking a swig from her shake. It's not like she didn't know, Kagome took the liberty to remind her every day.

“You are trying to work under the infamous Sesshomaru Taisho. As a matter of fact I've never seen his face before,” truth is neither has she, “and you'll probably have to call him Lord Sesshomaru. Yeah, would you like that?”

Rin rinsed out her cup, and grabbed her keys, “I'll see you later Kagome, but now I have to race to get to my interview.”

“You'll be careful though?”

“Yes Kags. Don't worry so much.”

When she walked into the huge building all eyes were on her. Every demon passerby stopped dead in their tracks to stare at her, but she ignored their burning eyes, making her way to the receptionist. The female didn't notice her at first, because she was to busy combing out the hair attached to a skulls head, and the comb was a strange blood red color. Though the first thing Rin noticed about her, was her low cut dressed that practically screamed grab my boobs!

“Excuse me.” The female looked up with a confused expression, as if she was unsure why Rin would be here. Rin examined her jet black-bobbed cut hair, and her blood red eyes. “I'm here to meet with Mr. Taisho.”

“And why would I let you meet with Mr. Taisho?” she asked rudely. Rin crossed her arms, and glanced at her name plaque.

“Because, Yura, I have a job interview with him.” She began to laugh, but still looked at her schedule.

“I only have a miss Hamasaki Rin on our schedule. Doesn't say a stinky human was going to visit today.”

“The only thing stinky around here is your attitude and that rotten skull you have there, but I'll look past all that.”

“Oh, you naughty naughty girl. Who do you think you are to speak to me in such a way?” she asked angrily. Rin smirked.

“Rin Hamasaki.” Her eyes widened, then a frown appeared on her face.

“Identification please.” Rin rummaged through her purse for her drivers license, and once found, handed it to the woman.

“Ugh fine, but this should be good. Top floor.”

Once she received her visitors pass she climbed into the elevator, with a couple of other demons. Some just stared at her in shock, others glared at her of hate and pure malice. Her destination was the 100th floor. She wondered if she would even make it that far.

A few moments later the ding of the elevator reassured her, and she stepped out with an exasperated sigh. “Wow a human huh?.” She turned to see the person questioning her was a demon. A Panther demon to be exact. He was a very handsome, not to mention tan, demon in a stainless white suit. His eyes were an amazing ocean blue color, and his dark hair was pulled up into a tight ponytail. “So he's actually considering the new regulations.” Rin continued to stare.

“And you are?” she asked the handsome Panther demon.

“My apologies, my name is Kira Sh?ran.h

“Kira? You mean Kira, head of the Panther Company Kira?” she asked in awe.

“The one and only,” he smiled. She had to admit it dazzled her a little.

“Rin,” she returned. He nodded.

“Well it was very nice to meet you Rin, but I must now be on my way.” He grabbed her hand, bending to give it a chaste kiss. “I do believe we'll meet again.” He walked over to the elevator, which was ridiculously kept open just for him. She knew there had to be some angry workers. She also felt that there was something very strange about that man, no, sneaky was a better word for it.

Rin looked down at her watch and cursed when she realized there was only two minutes before her interview. She asked for directions to Mr. Taisho's office and rushed in to meat his temporary assistant.

“Excuse me ma'am, what are you doing in here?” Rin knew that voice from anywhere. Kanna approached her from her desk.

“Hi, are you Ms. Takaba?” she questioned the blonde woman with the pixie haircut. She was fairly attractive.

“Yes and you are in the wrong place.” Here we go again.

“No, I'm in the right place. I'm here to have my interview with Mr. Taisho for the Executive Assistant position.” She watched as the woman's mouth formed into an 'O'. “I'm Rin,” she continued stretching out her hand.

“But you're...Oh no no, I'm dead. Please wait here for a moment.” She watched as her barer of bad news peaked into two large doors.

“What is it Kanna?” Rin heard a deep baritone voice ask. She shivered a little. It was silky deep and so smooth. She yearned to see his face. Stop it Rin! You're here for a job interview!

“Um, Rin Hamasaki is here to meet with you for her interview.”

“Perfect, send her in.” Rin couldn't help but smile to herself.

“Um sir there is a slight problem.” Rin's smile dropped into a frown. Like she thought, dark angel. If she was the reason for her losing this job...

“She's, well, you'll see for yourself.” Her dark angel turned to her, and smiled nervously. “Mr. Taisho will see you now.” Rin nodded and walked in. The large black leather office chair was turned away from her, and the male occupying it was rummaging through a desk drawer.

“Mr. Taisho?”

“Take a seat.” She quickly moved to quickly take a seat in one of the also black cushioned seats in front of his desk. His office had a romantic feel to it. It was somewhat dark, and the rest of the furniture other that the chairs and couch were a mahogany color. Everything looked so expensive. She made sure not to touch as to not break anything.

She was beginning to feel nervous so decided to start some type of conversation. “My name is Rin Hamasaki and-” she stopped in mid sentence when she heard several sniffs of the air. The large chair spun around and she loudly gasped and the white angel before her.

“And you're human,” he finished with a raised well trimmed eyebrow.

“And you're,” beautiful, she finished in her mind. She gawked at this amazingly handsome man before her. His long silver mane looked to reach past his waist, and she found the sharp markings on his face made him look dangerous, yet elegant. She had the urge to trace the violet moon that was etched upon his forehead, but what really caught her was those golden orbs he called eyes, They drew her in instantly.

“Are you listening?”

She snapped out of her trance, to see her possible boss coldly glaring at her. “I'm sorry what?”

“I don't hire humans,” he firmly said. She stared at him frozen, feeling as though those words should have came from her barer of bad news. H-he doesn't hire humans?
