Chapter 1

In a dimly lit room, 5 people sat on a black couch, each puffing a cigar. There, in the middle of the room, was man in his late 20's, strapped on a metal chair with blood profusely gushing out of his face. A blond man in his early 20's got up from the couch and took a metal baseball bat from the rack on the side of the room.

"Again. Who the fuck sent you here?" Ruka said as he slowly made his way to the man.

Despite the man who was nearly dying due to loss of blood, he smirked.

"Why you bastard!" Koko instantly stood up from the couch and took the bat from Ruka as he swung directly at the man's groin

"Mmmmf!" The man muttered as he yelped in pain.

Tsubasa crossed his legs and flexed his neck "Now I think you'd like to talk."

The man huffed his breath "Even if you cut my balls, my lips are sealed my boy."

"Well that is just fucking-

Inchou wasn't able to continue since the guy seated at the middle of the couch raised his hand as a sign for him to stop speaking. Raven hair, crimson eyes, and an aura that screamed murder placed his wine glass on the nearby side table. Cocked his head to the side and spoke, "Well isn't that an interesting idea." The entire room was instantly laced with the venom amongst Natsume's words. Slowly, he stood up.

"If our little guest here isn't on the mood for a chitchat, then who are we to decline his request."

Tsubasa, Ruka,Koko and Inchou all looked at him in confusion and utter disgust.

"Koko, Inchou cut his balls off before I cut yours." Natsume said in authority

"Boss are you serious?" They both said in shock

Natsume turned to glare at them "Does it look like I'm joking?"

They both gulped and quickly went to get their tools.

Natsume flexed his neck as he went back to the couch. He grabbed his gin and tonic as he sipped while looking at the now nervous man.

"Any last words?" Tsubasa said as he raised his brow at the man. Inchou and Koko were done stripping him and were positioning the steel knife over one of his balls

The man smirked "I am nev-UGH! MOTHER FUCKER! STOP STOP I'LL FUCKING TALK!" He hollered as Koko snapped his 1st ball off.

"And so he speaks." Natsume said as he crossed his arms

The man was gasping for air as he struggled to find the right words "M-m-i-m-m-i

"Who the fuck is Mimi?!" Tsubasa hollered

"Shut the fuck up Tsubasa!" Natsume growled

"M-m-i-mikan Sak-u-ra." The man said in finality

Natsume was taken aback. Not only him, so were the other 4 men.

The man grimly laughed "Not who you were expecting, aye pretty boy?"

Natsume got his gun and without thinking, shot him straight in the head.

"So Mikan how does it feel like back in New York?" The blond middle-aged reporter said as she held a microphone to the It Girl.

Mikan Sakura, aged 21 is New York's current It Girl. She just had finished her shoot for a magazine in Paris. And as of this moment, she was having her press conference in the Middletown Hotel in which thousands of press were dying to get a glimpse of Mikan Sakura in flesh.

"Well, of course I feel very happy and relieved to be back. Don't get me wrong I loved Paris! But I missed working with city that never sleeps." She giggled

"How was modeling there in Paris?" Another one piped

"It was truly a great experience! I wore skimpier outfits than before though." She laughed as the while room boomed in laughter

"So Mikan, how's your love life?" A man with a tape recorder said

"Well, I'm not exactly in a relationship right now. And I don't think I am jumping into one as of this moment. I'd like to occupy myself more on my career" She smiled

"Of course! No one could top her steamy relationship with the Natsume Hyuuga!" A female reporter squealed in delight. Mikan was taken aback.

"Mikan, are you in good terms with Mr. Natsume?"

"Well, we-um… we haven't really talked. As I said, I think that we are both occupied with our own careers." She smiled timidly

"Is there any possibility at all, that you two might, you know, reunite? Of course fans would go crazy!" A gay reporter asked

Mikan blushed "Well, I don't really think that's at all possible. I mean, we had no contact since."

Natsume was currently sitting in his study seating on a swivel chair.

Mikan Sakura

That was definitely a bomb he was not expecting. The name that the man they tortured, dropped, he was utterly in shock.

"Yo boss!" Koko and the gang said as they entered Natsume's study and sat on the couches opposite his table.

"Have you found anything?" Natsume asked in an authoritative tone

Ruka went forward to his table and placed a thick brown envelope.

"I honestly don't get why you made us do this Natsume. I mean, you've known Mikan since you were in diapers. You had a relationship with her. So why are you squeezing out her information?" Ruka blabbered as he sat on a chair

"Yea boss. I mean, Mikan's face, not to mention, her smoking hot body is plastered all over the city! You could just google her!" Koko said

"Well at least, that's what Koko does." Tsubasa chuckled

"He has a point" Inchou muttered under his breath. They were instantly brought to silence when Natsume fired a gun on a vase causing it to break.

"Never question my orders." He growled

"I have a question." Tsubasa piped in

"If that's a stupid question I will not think twice into blowing your worthless head off." Natsume stated casually as he polished his gun

Tsubasa gulped "He he. Never mind. Koko has a question instead!"

Koko's eyes grew in fright. "What?! Don't push me into this. I still want to live! Inchou has a question!"

Inchou glared at the 2 "Don't-

*Bang Bang*

They were once again silent as Natsume fired 2 bullets in their direction. Ruka shook his head at the 3 and was the one who popped the question instead "Shut up you bastards. Natsume, when you and Mikan were dating did you tell her about…" Ruka trailed off.

Natsume heaved a sigh as he decoded what Ruka was trying to say to him.

They were a part of the Mafia. A damn fucking Mafia.

And of course, Natsume is their Boss.

"No." He replied curtly

Ruka raised a brow "You sure? Not even a single word?"

Natsume glared at him. He never even opened the topic to Mikan. Why would he open Mikan's innocent eyes to a world where he knew was way too dangerous for someone he loved.

Yes he truly, deeply, loved Mikan.

Well, he was close to… Not until Mikan broke up with him. Without even a spec of a goddamned reason.

Ruka chuckled "So do you believe in what the man said?"

Natsume dismissed the 3 men on the couch with his hand. He needed to speak to Ruka privately. Once they were gone, he took out his electronic cigar and puffed.

"I don't fucking know."

"Do you think it's possible?" Ruka said as he took out his cigar as well.

"I've dated Mikan for 3 fucking years. And her world, as I found out, was centered on modeling, with all that fucking shit of a it, she's goddamned scared to even break her nail!" Natsume scowled. Of course him dating Mikan way back also earned him a string of paparazzi on his back.

"Well, is she associated with anyone in our world, I mean?" Ruka questioned.

"There's only one thing to do to find out is there?" Natsume said as he reached for the envelope containing Mikan's information. Ruka looked at him confused till Natsume cocked his head to the side

"Are you serious?!" Ruka almost hollered

"Stop screaming like a girl who got her hymen broken for the first time like Koko and Inchou" Natsume growled in frustration

"But, kidnapping New York's It Girl would mean a total chaos Natsume!" Ruka said in exasperation

Natsume smirked "Who said anything about kidnapping her? I was thinking of a lovely chat. Wouldn't she be happy to see her ex boyfriend?"

Ruka rolled his eyes and got out of the room.

Once he was alone, Natsume took out the contents of the envelope and scanned it one by one. It contained her basic information, her modeling career, her schedule for the year, her trips to make, all of Mikan's hook-ups, which made Natsume burn that paper instantly. He came across a paper that contained the Sakura's businesses. Mikan's family was filthy rich. Close to the Hyuuga's wealth. One thing however caught his attention, "Guns and Ammos Inc." the business venture of her brother was close to bankruptcy in late 2007, the same year that they had broken up. However, it boomed in the end of 2014 up to now, it was getting steadier as ever. At exactly the same time after Mikan's unexplained disappearance. And at the exact time when she came back, her career was blooming to bits.

Natsume frowned. After their break up, she knew Mikan ran off to some unknown country that even his team could not locate.

And a gun and ammo business? He knew for a fact that Mikan hated violence and was actually begging her brother to close that shit of a shop. But written on the paper Natsume was holding, Mikan supported the business and even used her career to spread it to countries where she went.

Where was the good old innocent Mikan?

What are you hiding Mikan Sakura?
