The wolf of Mibu… Captain of the third squad of the Shinsengumi… the ever fearless Hajime Saito waited with baited breath for the reaction of the volatile creature before him. He tensed as she shifted to face him.
A dark brow quirked and he stilled.
"They said I'm what?" came the question in a velvety growl a hint of malice lurking behind the humored tone.
Saito repeated himself grumbling.
A pale hand flashed to nadeshiko lips to stifle the breathy laugh. Smokey eyes glistened with mirth.
For a moment she stayed silent, giving him to time to light a cigarette, and slowly inhale the acrid smoke.
Finally when her sniggering had subsided she grinned wolfishly "soo…," she drawled cheekily standing up, and gathering up his empty bowl "Your friends think you're insufferable, too."
He grunted, as she stalked off to the kitchen "Some Buddha indeed."
