Chapter 4

Alright Rin you can do this!  No matter what she had to set a good impression on not just Taisho, but everyone else in the building as well. They were all judgmental ass holes, so she had to make it seem like the company was nothing without her. But how the hell was she suppose to do that, when the former CEOs son was making the company prosper like her ran it all by himself?

Rin walked into the building and instantly spotted Yura. She had on a skimpy red mini-grab  my boob-dress, with two long slits starting at her hips and going down each side. She was also the only one with with red eyes on the first floor and a bucket load of face paint. Clown! She called the receptionist that evening to ask her all about her position. Apparently she was Sesshomaru's  very own PDA . She kept track of all the appointments, meetings, interviews, phone calls, paper work...Can you say damn!

“I was wondering if you were going to be late today,” Yura said looking down at her watch and frowned, “but annoyingly, you're just as punctual as him.” Rin was assuming the him she was referring to was Mr. Taisho himself. Which was good to know because she knew now that she could not even be a minute late. Sigh. “Now your job is to make Lord Sesshomaru look good, although he does that part well all by himself. Such beautiful hair.” Rin rolled her eyes as the woman drifted off daydreaming most likely about a certain CEO, or maybe his hair.

“Yura I don't think we started off on the right hand so let's reintroduce ourselves.” Yura snapped out of her reverie and rolled her eyes, though Rin was happy that she stretched out her hand.

“Yura of the Demon-Hair,” she said, which was a very strange name. Was of the Demon-Hair her last name? Rin grabbed her hand about to introduce herself, but the woman stopped her. “I already know who you are. Now, like I was saying, your job is to make Lord Sesshomaru look good. So this plain hair up in a silly bun thing just won't do.” Yura reached up and pulled her hair out of the bun, but pinned it up in a way that it was pulled out of her face, but some tresses of her somewhat curly wet hair hung down. “Oh what pretty pretty hair.” Rin pushed her away. Yura smiled and shrugged. “Also next time, try a dress, not some plain ugly suit.” This woman was beginning to annoy her.

“You mean a harlot dress like yours? I'll pass. And when do I go up?” she questioned, but Yura's attention was no longer on her, but on something behind her. Rin looked back to see a human female with long black hair, razor-like bangs, dark black eyes, and did she mention human!

“Sara?” Yura whispered. Rin looked at her quizzically. “Now, you can go up. Here's your pad, in it are numbers you'll need including Lord Sesshomaru's, and passwords for your computer. You can change them if you want. Also here are the company car keys for errands you'll have to make. The car is parked in the back.” Company car keys!

“What?” Yura frowned at her.

“You really need to listen, especially since Lord Sesshomaru does not like to repeat himself. “

“Fine fine!”

“Before you go up I must tell you that you will be going up with Sara,” Rin was about to ask who the woman was, but once again Yura stopped her, “don't worry about who she is. Just know when you're going up to not mention that you're working as EA for Lord Sesshomaru, and definitely do not call him Lord Sesshomaru. She will ask why a human is here, and just say you file papers on the top floor. When you reach Lord Sesshomaru's office, that is when you're safe.” Safe! What the hell does she mean by safe? Who is this woman?

“Yura,” Sara called. Rin began towards the elevator. “One Visitor pass please.”

“You know you're not supposed to be here Sara.” Rin heard Yura say.

“Oh please, I'm here for the Executive Assistant position. You know they're setting new rules, and I'd do anything to help my dear Sesshomaru, and also wench you owe me.” After that Rin could no longer hear they're conversation, and she was annoyed by the fact that the elevator was taking so long to come back down. Rin smiled when it was finally opened, but it was too late.

“Hold the elevator please!” Sara called. Rin knew she had no choice. Here goes nothing. As soon as Sara stepped in, Rin got the automatic scrutinizing stare. Rin pressed the 100th floor button and they were off.

“Hello, you're human,” Sara commented. Rin automatically didn't like her. Was this the way everyone was going to make her feel at Taisho Co.?

“Hello, duh.” Sara smiled.

“My apologies, that was rude of me, it's just I didn't expect to see another human here.” She looked over towards the elevator and frowned, “And you're headed to the 100th floor?”

“That's the plan,” Rin answered, “You see these buttons over here, when you want to go to a specific floor you press one. I just so happened to press 100.” Sara eyes grew cold, and it reminded Rin of Sesshomaru's 'I'll kill you' look, but it didn't have the same affect when this woman did it. Maybe it's because she's human.

“And what business do you have on the 100th floor?” she asked.

“Oh I just file papers. I'm human of course. They wouldn't give me an important job.” Rin smiled when the evil eye disappeared.

“Well it is a demon company,” Sara smiled. Rin continued on with her fake smile. Bitch!

Sesshomaru was busy looking through Kagura's case file, when he got a call from the receptionist booth.

“Sesshomaru,” he answered.

“Lord Sesshomaru, she-witch is headed up!” He quickly hung up. He demanded that all his staff members code Sara's name as she-witch. The woman was dreadful, and he expected her to come see him today, especially since he turned her down for the Executive Assistant position, but speaking of it, where the hell was Miss Hamasaki? He exited his office and right beside Sara was exactly who he was looking for.

“Miss Hamasaki it's about time you got here,” he said. She raised her eyebrow at him.

“My apologies Mr. Taisho, I was sorta held up,” she replied. He didn't miss the eye gesture she made toward Sara. He fought the urge to sigh. He looked to Sara. This woman was going over board now. He really was going to go against his father's wishes, and have a restraining order put on her, or better yet, take care of her himself. Had hadn't had a good kill in a while now.

“Sesshomaru, you know this woman?” Sara asked. For some reason he felt like even answering her would open a door to her stalking issues.

“I'm his assistant,” Rin answered. He held back a smile when Sara's mouth formed into a large 'O'.

“B-but I was suppose to be your assistant,” she said to Sesshomaru, “And you said you were just filing,” she turned to Rin.

“Discretion,” Rin replied.

“What?”

“You should really listen, because I don't repeat myself.” Sesshomaru watched as Rin walked away into her office, and he fought not to smile. There's something about that human. She's so much like-

“Sesshomaru who is that woman, and why does she have my job?” Sesshomaru headed back in toward his office. He looked to Miss Hamasaki to see that she was already on the phone, and entered his office with Sara in tow.

“I don't recall ever hiring you Sara.” He took a seat at his desk, beginning his quest through piles and piles of contracts.

“B-but your father-”

“My father would never promise you something he could not give. You just misunderstood.” He heard her humph, though he still didn't look up to her. “Now if you wouldn't mind leaving I have work to do, and if you have anymore questions,” he finally glanced her way, “my assistant would gladly answer them for you.”

“Never in my life,” she said exiting and slamming his door.

“Have a nice day,” he heard Rin call, and smiled to himself. He realized there were things he had to go over with her and called her in. This should be good.

“Miss Hamasaki, come into my office,” he paged.

“Yes sir,” she answered, and a few seconds later she walked in shutting the door behind her, and crossing her arms. He knew what that meant.

“Something wrong?” he asked. She walked up to his desk glaring down at him.

“You couldn't have warned me about crazy stalker ex-girlfriend there?” He leaned back in his chair, also gesturing for her to sit. She hesitantly took a seat signaling him to speak.

“She is not my ex girlfriend, girlfriend, or anything, she's just a misguided woman.”

“Oh, because I was about to go off on the fact that you can date humans, but you can't hire them.” He frowned.

“I do not date humans, and this is an inappropriate conversation.” He pointed to his phone, “You see those lights?”

“The call lights,” she answered.
“And you see how some of them just went out?” she nodded. “That means you just missed a couple of what could have been very important calls. That will be coming out of your paycheck.”

“What! I mean, you're the one who called me in here and told me to come into your office, if I hadn't-” she stopped when he smirked at her. Her eyes widened, then she frowned, crossing her arms once again. “You can be a real jerk sometimes!”

“And you can be an annoying pest.” She glared at him, then suddenly smiled.

“So we're at a standoff, by the way this company works with a lot of other companies.” She opened her notepad skimming over her notes.

“You have your first public viewing with the children of the Kaede Orphanage this afternoon at two, oh and you have a meeting in an hour with the company Northern Wolves about merging the two companies.” Everyone wants to merge. Soon we'll all be deformed. He placed his elbows on the table laying his chin on the back of his palms, staring at her. She titled her head and squinted.

“Do you not want to proceed with that meeting?” He was shocked that she caught onto that, though he showed nothing on his face. He hadn't expected that from her, maybe there is more to her. This brought him to examine her a little. He hated to admit, but she was quit beautiful, and he preferred her hair this way than the same old buns she continuously wore. Apparently even when she was home. Stop! She's human you fool.

“Hn,” was all he offered.

“Hn,” she returned, scratching out that meeting. Cheeky, very cheeky. He looked through a couple of his contracts, finding the one titled Northern Wolves. It was a small company that sold fur clothing for wealthy and non-wealthy demons, and maybe a few humans. “What's this, and who's Kagura?

He snapped his head up to see Rin about to open Kagura's case file. He quickly grabbed her wrist and growled. He saw the fear in her eyes, but didn't release her when she tried to pull away. She gently placed her hand on his, and that is when he released her. It's like her touches burn.

“You may go now Miss Hamasaki, I no longer need you. And call my lawyer. I would like to put a restraining order on Sara.” She quickly wrote this down and stood. He could tell she was still a little shaken, but then maybe that will teach her not to snoop.

“By the way, a man named Koga called, he said he would like to meet with you. I asked if he had an appointment, but he said he wanted you to give him a call personally. He said you already have his number.” She turned to walk out, but once again stopped. “I'm sorry for her, a fire is no way to die. Trust me, I know.” What did she mean by 'she knew'?

He would figure that out later. Right now, he had to figure out what Koga found. Sesshomaru pulled out his cellphone and dialed Koga's number. It rang once and the wolf answered. “Hello, Koga speaking.”

“Koga, this is Sesshomaru. What did you find?”

“Oh Sesshomaru! Hey you'll never believe what I found out!”

“Just spill it Koga!” he yelled impatiently.

“Okay okay, well I took the liberty to review Miss Takaba's phone records the day she died. Her case file said that the last person she called that day was her sister, well that's not entirely true. A number was erased from her phone records.”

“Whose?” Sesshomaru asked.

“A Mr. Naraku Onigumo.” Naraku Onigumo?

“The owner of Onigumo University?”

“Yup, he's a very wealthy man. Has many friends in high places, even humans. Turns out Kagura attended school there. I also looked up her school records, and she only attended two years then transferred to none other than Taisho University.” The University his father had created right before he passed on the company to him.

“And?” Sesshomaru pushed.

“And, she was an intern at your company when you father still ran it, and that's how she met you, when you hired her for the Executive Assistant position.” Koga continued.

“So if this man did nothing wrong there would not be a reason for him to hide the fact that they called each other that same night, but he did exactly that. When can we contact him?”

“As soon as we meet up. I did contact your assistant.”

“Yes, that's why I called.” Sesshomaru replied.

“I also took the liberty of looking up her records for fun. She attended Onigumo University,” there was a moment of silence. “I do not believe in coincidences Sesshomaru.” Sesshomaru moved aside Kagura's case file to look at Rin's. He knew there was something fishy about this girl. Right when he turned her down for the job, a rule was set to hire at least one human. Convenient that it was right after she graduated from Onigumo University.

“I understand Koga. Let's meet tonight. We'll visit this Naraku Onigumo ourselves.”
