(Third Person POV)

"I...appreciate all the Association is doing for me. Housing my...kind must not be easy." a sensual voice murmured softly as the sounds of heels clicking against the floor echoed, the people passing by staring in wonder at the woman that passed by them with aloofness.

"You'll have to thank the President, ma'am, he's the one who allowed it." her guide muttered as he fought to keep his gaze off the President's guest, her beauty calling to the more baser instincts that any man had towards women. The main reason for his hesitation was the four men that trailed after the duo near silently, their imposing figures and cold expressions unsettling to even the most seasoned hunters.

"Of course." the same soft murmur came from the woman as he delicate features scrunched in a frown, golden eyes framed by long lashes flickering about the room with a hint of thoughtfulness. Bright red silky smooth curls bounced against her back with each stepped that she took, arched eyebrows and full lips turning down before her expression became one of indifference.

"Here we are! The President will be expecting you so go on in." the man said as he hurried away before he became obsessed with her flaunted curves, her tantalizing scent following him even after he was far away from the woman.

"Interesting." she murmured before rising a delicate hand to rap on the door in front of her three times, listening as paper's rustled almost frantically causing a small smile to settle on her lips.

"Come in!" Kaien said after he struggled for a second to make his office look somewhat presentable, the door opening suddenly before the most beautiful thing he's seen in a while walked through. She had the most striking golden eyes and her hair was a unbelievably bright red color, her curves accentuated by the business suit she wore causing him to try and regain control of himself. It became easier when he saw the four imposing figures that followed her in, his throat working to swallow down his wariness at what was obviously her guards.

"You must be President Cross. I am Sarafina Luna, a pleasure to meet you." the woman said and he was blown away by how sensual her soft voice sounded, his eyes blinking as he lifted the serious mask he wore during his hunting times to seem professional.

"The pleasure is mine, Miss Sarafina." the President muttered simply and shook the hand that she held out before sitting down, a small smile coming to the woman's face when she saw that he was visibly shaken by her touch.

"I must say, for being newly...shoved into this position, you have made the Association better in every way possible." Sarafina said as she glanced around his office with a calculating glint in her light eyes, her guards settling into different places in the room though they were tense with caution.

"Thank you." the President said thought before he could say much else his top hunter barged into the room, the guards shooting up to stand defensively though Yagari didn't seem to notice them.

"What the hell is this Kaien? This shit is what you assign to newbies!" he said as he stormed up to the desk and slammed the case file down onto it angrily, the woman raising an eyebrow at his behavior though an amused smile lit her face.

"Yagari, now is not the best time..." Kaien said hesitantly as he glanced at the guards that had yet to sit back down, the woman making no move to placate them though in all honesty it was understandable.

"What the hell do you-oh. Hello there, names Toga Yagari, but you can call me Yagari. Remember it cause you'll be screaming it tonight." Yagari said as he turned to face the woman that he just realized was there, his eyes skimming her body as he addressed her before he met her gaze and winked.

"Toga!" the President admonished as he stood from his chair and glared at his old friend, a feeling he hasn't felt in a while curling around his heart and squeezing it.

"What?" Yagari said cluelessly as he practically ripped his gaze from the temptress, eyeing his boss and old friend with a curious gaze as he saw the emotion on his face.

"It is quite alright President, I am accustomed to receiving attention from unwanted suitors." Sarafina said as she crossed her long pale legs and stared at Kaien with an amused gaze, Yagari jerking back as if smacked before an amused smile curled his lips moments later.

"Oh ho ho, princess has bite. That's cute." the hunter muttered with a wink as he moved to lean closer to the indifferent woman, Kaien stiffening when he saw one of her guards move closer with a furious scowl on his features.

"I'll show you cute you little-" the man said as his fists clenched and he shrugged off his fellow guards' grips on his person, his advancing stopped immediately when the woman held up her hand and her features became cold.

"Enough! If you will please dismiss your hunter, we have important matters to discuss." Sarafina said as her once amused gaze turned cold as ice and turned towards the hunter, said hunter raising his hands in defeat before he left the room silently and shut the door.

"I am...unsure anyone has ever silenced him that well before." the President said with an astonished expression as he stared at the woman with wonder, a small smile flitting across her lips as her features once again became warm as before.

"It is a gift. Now, if you could please give me the tour you so eagerly mentioned?" Sarafina said with a tilted head as she became eager to see what the Association has, Kaien smiling softly as he nodded and stepped around the desk and towards the door. Motioning for her to go ahead and politely nodding when she did so with a gracious smile, the President's gaze couldn't help but run over her curves before her men interrupted and filed out after her.

"Right this way." Kaien said as he closed his door and moved to lead the way down the currently empty hall, Sarafina watching his stiff movements as he led them down a hall they haven't seen yet.

(1 Hours Later)

"And last but not least, the cafeteria." the President said and watched with a defeated gaze as her guards practically ran into it, a frown on his brow at the thought of staring at his guest so unabashedly when he still thought of Juri.

"Relax." a soft voice murmured as a gentle warm touch settled on his bicep for mere moments, the woman following after her guards before he could look up to catch her expression. What the hell are you doing Cross? he said to himself.
