Chapter 1 Old friends, new friends and two sexy bosses
Kagome sat in the ice cream parlor, shaking the ice in her milkshake. Usually, she was not one to drink a shake in the middle of the afternoon. She preferred lemonade or tea, but today was an exception. Today, she started her new job. Her old boss promoted her from assistant manager to assistant editor of the most popular magazine in Tokyo, Sleazy.
The owner of the magazine was very amazed by her work and promoted her to the post of assistant editor of the head office branch. In fifteen minutes, she was supposed to be entering the fifteen storey building and meet the Editor in person. It was rumored that the Editor was the younger brother of the owner and that he was a hanyou. Kagome had not had the luck of meeting either of them but today she would. Drinking the last remnants of her shake, she got up to her feet, adopted a confident attitude, it would not do if the Editor smelled her nervousness. Taking a deep breath, she walked out of the parlor, heading straight for the building.
Crossing the road, she entered the building, and her miko senses started tingling. There were a lot youkai working here. Determined not to let that bother her, she walked towards the receptionist's desk and was met with a pair of warm brown eyes. The receptionist was a dark haired young girl, nearly in her twenties. Slender and petite, she wore a sleeveless shirt, displaying a tattoo reading which said friends forever. Taking one look at the tattoo, Kagome gasped “Rin!” The warm brown eyes registered recognition and grinned widely, “Surprised to see me?”
“I thought you were in Canada.”
Rin frowned, “I was, till my dad shifted here. I tried to contact you, but your mom said you had moved into an apartment. I was just reading your Performa. Man, you're good!”
Kagome grinned, “I really missed you Rin.”
“As did I.”
They hugged each other tightly and suddenly let go when someone whistled. Turning around, Kagome saw a handsome, young man with violet eyes, and black hair in a tiny ponytail, whistling, with a lecherous grin on his face.
“If you two were getting at it, then please don't let me disturb you?”
Kagome's face turned red as she understood what he was implying. Rin however remained unfazed and called loudly, “Sango, if you will.”
Suddenly, a hand smacked the man in the back of the head and he fell down on his face. Behind him stood a beautiful brown haired girl with a furious look on her face, “Miroku! What have I told you about your lecherous habits!”
The passersby went about their business as if this was very common. Trying to retain what dignity he had left, Miroku got up and dusted his shirt announcing, “I am a man of God, my love. I was merely appreciating what love these two beings had. Now is that so wrong.” This earned him a slap from Kagome, “Hentai!”
The brown haired girl looked at her and laughed, “He never learns. I'm Sango. I'm assistant to this lecher, Miroku, who is the head of the models department.”
Kagome extended her hand warmly, “I'm Kagome. I just moved here. I was promoted to assistant editor last week.” Sango's eyes widened as she looked at Kagome more closely, “Oh, you're the one who was promoted. I've read so many of your articles Kagome and I loved every one of them.”
Kagome blushed and said, “Thanks. Now can someone show me where the main office is? I'm supposed to meet the boss and his brother today.” Sango nodded, cheerfully, “Sure, I'll take you.” Ignoring Miroku, she led Kagome to the elevator and entering it she pressed the button for the top floor.
The top floor was a long hall, along, quiet hall to be exact. At each end of the corridor was a door. On one was written `Executive Director Seshoumaru Tahashi'.. On the other was written `Editor Inuyasha Tahashi'.
Kagome looked at Sango incredulously. “This place so does not look like its running a magazine.”
Sango grinned, rolling her eyes, “You have only seen the ground floor and the top floor. The middle floors are the ones bustling with assholes.”
Kagome sighed, contentedly, “Now that's where I belong. Among the assholes.”
Sango laughed. “Okay, you go to the Executive Director's office cuz he wanted to talk to you and then at one you, me and Rin go to lunch.”
Kagome's nose wrinkled, “You're making it sound like a job.” Then her eyes narrowed, “Its not part one of your job, is it?” Sango grinned widely, “'Course not! Now go before Seshoumaru totally loses it.” Pushing Kagome towards the Executive's office, and bloted to the elevator.
Taking a deep breath, Kagome knocked on the wooden door. A voice came from inside the room, “Enter.”
Twisting the knob, Kagome slowly pushed the door open, and her miko senses started tingling in full awareness. As she saw the Executive Director, she gasped, not only was he a youkai, but a hot one for that.
Sleek silver hair, cascaded down his back neatly, framing his narrow and stoic face and beautiful amber eyes. On seeing who it was, Seshoumaru got up, but not before Kagome registered the purple markings on his cheeks.
Standing up, Seshoumaru motioned for Kagome to sit down, “Miss Hirugashi, I presume.” Kagome nodded he head dumbly, still dazed by his beauty.
“I was highly impressed by your work, Miss Hirugashi.”
`With the face he's wearing, it's hard to believe he has ever been impressed by anything in his life.'
“You're going to be assistant director to my half-brother, Inu- “
The door burst open, and a gorgeous silver haired God, stepped into the room, his eyes narrowed, “Where the fuck is she, you bastard!?”
Seshoumaru seemed unfazed by the sudden entry. Nodding towards the new comer, he spoke, “This is my half-brother Inuyasha.”
“Why the hell are you introducing me to your whore Seshoumaru? And where the fuck is that new assistant you kept farting about!?”
Kagome turned red. Seshoumaru was sure, she was going to burst into tears, when he saw his brother's assistant march up to him and hit him straight across the back of his head, making him fall to the ground.
“Call me a whore again, and your head isn't the only place that'll be hurting!” In a flash, Inuyasha had Kagome against the wall, his hand squeezing hr neck. Seshoumaru was about to intercede, when to his amazement, he saw the girl's hands tingling pink, as she summoned her miko energy. Inuyasha jumped backwards nursing his stinging hand, “What the fuck, bitch!”
“Aren't there any ruled against employee harassment?”
Inuyasha glared at his brother as he understood who she was.
“You gave me a fucking miko for an assistant, you bastard!”
However, Seshoumaru all but threw them out of the door, “I'm sure you two will get along fine.” He slammed the door in their faces, as the two glared at each other.
