Chapter 1

Tezuka Kunimitsu had all the things other normal men could ever wish for: A powerful and respected family, the ideal features every man wishes to have, money, and all things that his eyes desired, he could have it all in just a single flick of a finger.

"Kunimitsu, I heard you've made your newest assistant quit his job yesterday," his mother said, "he was just accepted last week."

Tezuka's parents were on a break right now. They've decided to spend time together with their son even just for a week before moving back to Nagoya for a business meeting.

"He has not even met half of my standards," he said, "So I kicked him out."

"Kunimitsu, why do you always torture your assistants? Why don't you try to be more cooperative with them dear?"

"Torture is not the right word. I was only testing them, mother."

Lies. Tezuka Kunimitsu had numerous assistants before and each one of them had suffered under all of his unbearable commands.

"Okay son, I'll ask my agent to look for another one."

"There's no need mother, I don't need them."

"But Kunimitsu, you need to have a personal assistant. It'll be difficult for you if you don't have any. Look at you… bearing all the work on yourself, it's not healthy."

Knowing that his mother would not stop the discussion, he already agreed. He could throw the new guy out anytime he wanted anyway. After the talk, he went straight back to his room.

"Who told you to enter my room!" he growled at the maid who is now shaking in fear.

"K-kunimitsu-sama, I-I was just a-asked to… f-fix your things s-since… you d-don't yet have a –"

"LEAVE!"

"H-hai!" The maid bowed and immediately left the room.

"Stop the car."

Tezuka Kuniharu and Tezuka Ayana decided to go to out; they thought it would be nice to spend a day together during their break. They went to the park where they first met; they were only middle school students that time. It's always good to spend time with the person you love. The only person they took with them is their driver. No bodyguards and personal assistants. The two of them are wearing casual attire like other normal people. But still, the aura of being a powerful and wealthy remained.

As they were heading back towards the car, Ayana glanced at her side noticed a cake store. She told Kuniharu to go ahead and just wait for her inside the car. She was already near, and she stopped dead on her tracks as she was shocked to see a honey-haired boy flying out the store. She was startled and stood rooted on the ground. Then a huge man came out and picked the boy by the hair and slapped him hard many, many times across the face.

"You useless son of a bitch!" the man was slapping him as if possessed by a demon. "Don't ever show your face to me! GET THE HELL OUT OF THIS PLACE!"

Ayana pitied the boy. She regained her courage and was about to confront the violent man when she saw the guy stopped slapping and then pushed the honey-haired boy so hard that immediately sent him lying flat in the middle of the road.

"What's taking Ayana so long?" Kuniharu, afraid that his wife was being attacked again by some meddlesome reporters, stepped out of the car and went after her.

Ayana became terrified once more when she saw a speeding car which would automatically kill the poor boy. In panic, she immediately went towards the middle of the road and picked the frail body lying on the ground, only to be the one hit by the rushing car who had just stopped its engine.

The boy, who is now trembling in fright because of what happened, crawled instantly towards his savior who is now drenched with blood. He put her on his lap and cried. He was so scared and did not know what to do. It was his fault, this happened to her because of him!

"M-my son…m-my s-son…t-take…care o-of…him…m-my…s-son…K-ku-ni-mi…tsu." Struggling, Ayana lost consciousness.

Kuniharu could not believe his eyes; he rushed madly towards the scene, took Ayana from the boy and sent her right away to the hospital.

Seeing how badly Ayana was injured, Kuniharu did not know what to do. He prayed that Ayana's life would be saved. Fortunately his prayers were answered. The doctor informed him that the operation was a success and that Ayana was far from death now, but it would take months for her to heal completely because...

As Kuniharu was walking along the corridors of the hospital, he saw a figure rising up from his seat making his way towards him. Could he be…?

"I'm very sorry, sir. It's my entire fault," The boy suddenly bent down on his knees, bowing up and down repeatedly that his forehead was almost hitting the floor, "I'm very sorry…I'm very sorry!"

Kuniharu frowned. It was him. "Stand up."

Fuji slowly raised his head, and looked at Kuniharu who gave him a nod as a gesture to stand already. Little by little he extended his legs to get up.

"What is your name young man?"

"Fuji Syusuke," he said nervously, "How is your wife…sir?"

Kuniharu looked at Fuji from head to toe, he was examining his features. The boy looked so tensed.

"So you are Fuji-kun," he said. "Her life is far from danger now. Even though my wife is badly injured, the doctor said she will still recover. But it will take months..."

"Sir, this may be rude of me but can I see her? I just really want to talk to her and…thank her…for saving me."

"She is still unconscious. Fuji-kun, she is in comatose."

"W-What!"

After several days of waiting, Fuji Syusuke finally had the chance to see to his savior. When he entered the room, he saw a woman who almost had bandages all over her body. It pained him to see the woman's condition. He blamed himself repeatedly; she shouldn't have been involved in the misfortune of his pathetic life.

He shifted his gaze to Kuniharu who was staring sadly at the figure of his beloved wife. He felt so guilty; he should've been the one suffering instead of them.

"I-I'm really sorry sir. Because of me this…this happened to her…" Fuji then started to cry. "I'll do anything in return to what she did for me! I'll do anything you say!" He kneeled in front of him.

Kuniharu glared at him, and then he raised a questioning eyebrow. "Do as I say? Don't make me laugh. Tell me, can you bring her back to her previous condition?"

"A-Anything you'll say, I-I'll do anything I can!" For the damage I've done.

Kuniharu sighed and closed his eyes. What can this pathetic girly boy do? Well… this person was whom Ayana almost lost her life for to protect. Then he shot his eyes open as a thought occurred to him.

"What if I told you to work for us?"

"Y-Yes, I'll do it sir!"

"Working for me is a tough job Fuji-kun. Be sure to prove that you have the ability."

Fuji was sure to himself that he can do it. "Yes, I'll do my best." he answered.

"Good. Starting tomorrow you will go into our mansion. You will work for my son. Understood?"

Mansion? "H-hai!"

The negotiation went well. Before going to the mansion, he was immediately asked by an agent to sign a contract and after that he was directly sent to another representative which would guide him to the house to introduce him to his new boss. When they've arrived, Fuji was astonished to see a really huge house in front of him; he just could not believe it. But he felt scared; he doesn't have any idea of what work he just entered. All he knew was that he will be serving for a man named Tezuka Kunimitsu, the son of the woman who saved him.

"Wait here for a moment, Fuji-san." The agent guided Fuji inside the house and left him standing in front of a huge door.

Fuji looked around from where he was standing. What a big house… he thought, already feeling lost. Focusing back on the door in front of him, he suddenly felt not good. There was an odd vibe making him nervous and somehow... afraid.

"You may come in, Fuji-san."

After entering the room, he gazed in its unadorned features and felt a cold atmosphere, making his hands start to shake. He saw a man standing in front of the window, it must be him.

"Good day, Tezuka-sama. I'm Fuji Syusuke. Starting today I'll work as your assistant." He felt the thick air filling his lungs as he spoke and felt getting suffocated.

While waiting for the other man to answer, Fuji can't help but feel scared at the deafening silence filling his ears. Then he felt even more scared as he saw Tezuka turned his head and glared at him so hard as if trying powder him into dust.

"So you are that guy."

The tone of his voice sent shivers down Fuji's spine. His body felt so cold when he saw those hazel eyes looking at him, burning with hatred and disgust. Fuji felt those eyes study every detail of his features, trailing his body from the top of his head down to the tips of his shoes. He almost felt like running when he saw him smirk evilly. This man has an aura of a devil... He can feel it!

The honey-haired boy suddenly felt a loss of heart to continue, but he remembered the man's mother. No, he must not cower in fear; he will try his best to work well with this man.

"Yes, I am."

Tezuka's eyebrows twitched, and glared more at him. He made a tiny evil laugh. "After all of what happened, you still had the guts to come here?"

Fuji only stood speechless; he did not know what to say to him anymore. Shaking in fear, he excused himself saying that he still have to fix his things and immediately went out of the room. After getting away from the room, Fuji was able to breathe normally again.

Fuji Syusuke, let's see how long you will last…
