Ohayo Readers. So I have been working on this story for over a year and just kept it in a word document, unsure if i wanted to keep it or not. I didn't do chapters at the time while working on it so when i finally put chapters in while working on it, i realized that i had over 15 chapters and i refused to delete any of it. I hope you all enjoy it.

Please Read and Enjoy!

Review, review, review! I really want to know how you as readers feel about this story. :)

Elevators… why did it have to be elevators? Stairs she could handle, but elevators…? No. They were too small and no air flow for how crammed you could get in one of them. But sadly she had to take the elevator because the office she worked in was on the top floor of a sixty story building. She looked around and groaned quietly. She needed to get out before she had a panic attack. She pushed herself forward to the front of the elevator and pressed for the next floor before they passed it. The doors opened and she froze, seeing her boss standing there with two of his men.

"Sir…" she gasped before stepping aside so the three men could enter the elevator, making it even more crowded. She didn't know her boss's actual name due to the fact everyone called him 'boss' or 'sir.' She closed her eyes before sighing quietly, knowing that now she would have to just endure the trip until she got to the office. Why did she have to work in one of the taller buildings in Japan?

She hated her life in that moment. She had to ride the elevator every day, which she hated. She had a job that paid well, but she had to work for an arrogant bastard who was standing next to her silently as he always did. And then there was her home life…

Her parents died a decade ago when she was only 12 and she was relocated from Mumbai to Japan to live with her aunt and uncle at the shrine that had been passed down through their family. She found out then that she had a cousin that was 5 years younger than her and her aunt was expecting their second child. Then before her cousin Kagome turned 14 and cousin Souta turned 7, she moved away from the shrine to head over to college and never moved back to the shrine, but she visited every now and then.

The elevator doors opened, bringing her back to her senses, but she groaned. They were still 15 levels away from the office. Soon, the elevator emptied and it was just her boss, his two men, and her. At least it wasn't so crowded.

"What is the schedule for this afternoon?" his cold, emotionless voice made her jump slight as her boss acknowledging her presence.

She looked at him out of the corner of her eye and noticed that his usual black hair was covered his forehead and was trimmed above the collar of his suit. He was about 6'2" and you could tell by his broad frame that he was in no way a weak person. His eyes were what intrigued her, being ice blue and emotionless. Compared to her, he seemed too perfect to be real.

As she grabbed her planner, she looked at the reflective wall of the elevator and stared at her reflection. Her stormy blue grey eyes were surrounded black eyeliner and silvery eye shadow. Her waist length black hair was curled over her right shoulder. She wore a red knee-length halter top dress that flared at the waist and a pair of ankle boot heels.

"Your first meeting is in an hour at 10:30am. Mr. Takashi Kyto is coming from the Mumbai Corporation. Then you are having lunch at 1:00pm with Mr. Kouga Wolf and his wife over at Sawadee. After that, you have a meeting at 4:00pm with your CEO from the Japanese corporation, Jaken Kato. Your mother called, saying something about dinner tonight with your brother and refuses to let you cancel. She has made reservations over at Olive Garden for 7:00pm," she spoke quickly as the elevator doors opened to the offices. She heard her boss sigh almost inaudibly and cringed slightly. He was never pleasant when he was irritated. She followed him to his office room, picking up the pile of papers she had stacked the night before for him and entered his office as he sat down at his desk. "Here you go sir. Is there anything I can get you?"

"Coffee," he replied as he started to sort through the pile she gave him.

"Yes sir," she nodded before leaving quickly.

"Good morning Miss Draik, how was your night?" one of her coworkers, Sai, smiled as he came to make his own coffee.

"Busy," she replied as she poured the coffee into the only cup her boss liked. "It seems like the boss never sleeps."

"Wow, you worked as late as him? Damn, that sucks. At least, you have been the best secretary he has hired and have lasted the longest. The past secretaries only lasted a couple months and you have lasted three years."

"Thanks," she smiled as she fixed the boss's coffee the way he liked it.

"How do you do it all and have a personal life?"

"I don't," She laughed before leaving the room and carried the coffee. Other coworkers greeted her as she passed then she entered his office. "Here you go sir."

"Hn." He nodded slightly and she left the room and sat at her desk right outside his office, a glass wall separating her office from the rest of the employees on the floor.

The Takiyama corporations was a large business that ranged from electronics to historic agriculture to modeling and journalism and she was the only one out of all the hundreds of employees who answered every beck and call of the man behind her. When she first applied for the Takiyama corporations, she thought she would be hired onto the Mumbai division so she could move back there since she was half Japanese, half Indian. Never in a million years did she think she would be working in Tokyo.

"Good morning Nova." She looked up into the grinning face of Takashi Kyto. "Still trying to get into my division?"

"Trying and failing," Nova shrugged as she stood and shook his hand. "You're early sir."

"We all know he doesn't like anyone being late."

"That is true," she nodded as she glanced behind her to look through the glass door behind her desk to see the edge of his desk.

"Has he mentioned his name yet? You've been here three years and haven't questioned it," Takashi frowned as he sat in front of the desk.

"He has treated me fairly and gave me a position I'm sure many would ask for. He is entitled to his privacy. Besides, it is none of my business. Maybe you could suggest a transfer for me," she grinned as she got to her feet and entered the office behind her. "Mr. Kyto is here sir."

"Bring him in."

She nodded and turned to Takashi. "He is ready for you Mr. Kyto."

"Thank you Nova," he smiled as he got to his feet. "Is there any way I could get a Chai Tea?"

"I'll be right back," she nodded, before heading to the lounge to make drinks.

She made a Chai tea for Takashi then poured a cup of Sakura tea for her boss and put them on a small tray and carried it back to the office. She entered silently without knocking and set the drinks in front of their right person. She was the only one that didn't ever have to knock. She bowed quickly, before heading towards the door, trying to ignore the conversations, but a small line caught her attention.

"You're stubborn as usual young Sessh…" the amused voice reached her ears as she quickly left the room before the last word was finished.

She grabbed a coke from her mini fridge as she sat down and sighed. She looked at the stack of papers on her desk before logging onto her computer and pulled up emails and the calendar. So that as she went through the stack of papers on her desk, she could send emails and update the boss's schedule as she went through.

'Sessh...' she whispered the name in her mind and it felt weird, even if it was most likely only part of his name. She knew her boss by 'sir' and after three years, she heard someone start to speak his name. She felt like some kind of stalker by even hearing a part of the name, even if it had been accidental… unless Takashi did it on purpose.
