So I decided to make Natsu a young adult instead of a teenager. It just worked out better for this story.

Enjoy!

Brown eyes looked to the man sitting at his desk before her. She didn't like being here. The only time he really talked to her was when she was given a mission or something related to the Konzern. No 'how are you?', 'how was your day?', or 'I love you!'... Nothing.

"Here is your next assignment." The man said dryly, not even looking up as held the file up, expecting her to take it. Reaching forward with a 'humph', she took hold of the folder. Her new diamond bracelet shining in the light.

"As you know, my competitor, among others, has been growing more successful every year. This has left us, as you say, "in the dust". We cannot spend another year with low production rates. Thus, your mission is to destroy Dragneel Inc. In order to do this, you will get close to the heir, and then dispose of him. With the loss of his son, Igneel will crumble and his business will falter, bringing us back to the top. Do you understand." Jude Heartfilia said stoically, his hands intertwined in front of his mouth, his elbows on the desk.

"Isn't this going a little overboard! I'm sure there are other ways to get back u-"

"Don't you dare talk back to me!" Jude growled, standing up from his chair, glaring at the blonde. "Now get out of my sight!"

"Yes...father." Lucy whispered with a growl, turning to leave, her heels clicking with her movement. The file held in her arms tightly.

When she reached her bedroom, she flopped on the bed, resting her head on the thick, pink blanket with a groan. She just got back from a mission. Why did she have to go and kill someone. Not just that, but use her sex appeal to get his guard down, then kill him. Was that all her father saw in her? A tool to use for his own benefit?

Pursing her lips, maneuvered to lay on her stomach before she opened the file. The first thing that caught her attention was a picture of a grinning young man with...pink hair? That seemed so unnatural. Yet, the pink hair matched him perfectly, accenting his features. She blushed at the thought and turned her head slightly, something shiny catching her eye.

Looking down at her bracelet, she remembered the man she stole it from. Before she met him, she'd been on another mission to steal money and stuff that was being transported on the train. Before the train was set to leave the station, she walked in with some of her helpers, forcing people to get off the locomotive. She stole gold watches and rings from the men, not having the heart to steal from the women and children. Partly because she hated men, after the hell Sting put her through. Also, because she hated her father. After forcing the conductor to set the train to go full speed ahead, she kicked him off with a 'Lucy Kick'. It was around that time that she met her savior on the train.

Going back to the bracelet, it was just too beautiful to pass up. She wanted to meet the Salamander again. He seemed different from other guys, somehow. She just felt so comfortable with him. She didn't know why, but when she was around him, she felt her hormones rage. The man was freaking hot! He wasn't a bad kisser either. And his dragon eyes made him look even sexier. The image of his wet shirt stuck to his body caused her to bite her lip, her cheeks becoming red again.

Shaking her head to get back to the moment at hand, she looked at the heir to Dragneel Inc.

Name: Natsu Dragneel

Age: 23

Occupation: Business trips and meetings for Dragneel Inc. Heir to company

Elder brother to Wendy Dragneel

Graduated from Magnolia High School

She'd have to come up with a plan to meet this guy and see how she could get his attention. She had three days to figure it out. But before that, she's going to sneak around town tonight to see if she can catch a glimpse of the Salamander again. She thought as she played with the diamond bracelet on her wrist.

The night air felt warm on her face as she breathed in the summer breeze. She stood atop a small building, overlooking the river where the train fell the day before. Waiting for hours, Lucy was getting bored. When was she going to see him? Was he even out tonight? Was he off saving some other girl from her untimely doom? Or maybe he was raiding some hideout. The blonde thought to herself, biting her lip in frustration.

"Long time no see, Luigi!" A whisper sounded in her ear, causing her to jump back with a shriek, slapping the culprit in the face. Looking up while trying to calm her racing heart, she saw the Salamander standing before her, a red hand print on his right cheek and a pout on his lips. She had to admit the pout was quite cute on him.

"That hurt, Luigi!" The ebony whined, repeating the name while rubbing his throbbing cheek. "My name is Lucy! LU-CY! Got it?!" Lucy corrected him, her face red with more frustration.

"Why are you out here anyway? Isn't it dangerous for someone like you to be out and about alone at night?" He asked, continuing to stare at the blonde. His eyes catching a glimpse of something shiny on her wrist.

"W-What's that suppose to mean? Someone like you?" She narrowed her eyes at him, despite her blush. "A young, pretty woman. Alone. Scantily clad. The list goes on." He drawled, rubbing the back of his neck, a smirk on his face as he looked her up and down, making Lucy blush. She was about to retort, but cut herself off as something came to her mind.

"How did you find me? I've been waiting for you for hours." She grumbled curiously. Her eyes widened when he tapped the side of his nose. "I can smell your scent for miles. And, I've got to say that yours is my favorite. Sure beats others I've smelt." He chuckled as her face grew redder.

"T-Then why didn't you come here sooner if you could sm-smell me for miles? What do I smell like anyway?" She asked the last part, sniffing herself, trying to hide her blush. Salamander just stood there watching her, his smirk growing wider. "Well...about that. I've been here for hours. I just wanted to see how long your patience would last." He cracked a Cheshire cat grin, showing off what looked like small canine-like fangs as he leaned towards her, their faces inches apart. Lucy blushed again, her heart rate picking up speed as she stared into the gorgeous dragon eyes again.

Lucy's eyes widened, were those teeth real? She desperately wanted to reach out and touch them, but Salamander broke her reverie when he spoke
again. "As for your smell. That information is classified." He chuckled before poking the tip of his nose against hers, laughing as the blonde's face grew a new shade of red. He leaped back with another laugh when Lucy lunged at him, trying to smack him again. Her face red with embarrassment.

"Why you little-" She chased after him across the rooftop, smiling slightly. It was like they were playing cat and mouse. At the moment she felt like the cat, because she really wanted to pounce on him and hold him prisoner. Her cheeks flared up at the thought. She almost caught up to him, when he decided to spin in place with swag, before turning another direction sharply. Before she could turn to follow him, she felt strong hands grip her arms, holding them tightly behind her back. Unable to move, a shiver ran down her spine when she felt the ebony press his body to her back, a puff of breath touching her ear.

"Why were you waiting for me? Did you miss me?" He purred teasingly, his lips against her ear. Lucy's body became rigid when Salamander nuzzled his face into the crook of her neck, taking in her scent. Her face getting more red with blood rushing to her cheeks. His hands slid slowly down her arms, before tightening around her wrists. A moment later, his presence was gone.

Slowly turning around, her face still red, she noticed that she was alone. With a sigh, she looked at her watch, only to notice that her diamond bracelet was missing.

"That jerk!" She screamed into the night sky.
