Christopher pov)

Christopher returned back to his office and was deep in thought as he decided to get information from his father, he called his dad and told him what's going on but to his father who didn't take it easy was upset by this and wanted to know who was threatening his son and his business. Christopher told his father that it was a woman named Aya, he didn't want to tell his father that it was Tsume's Aunt afraid that his father might forbid her from doing what she loved most you would do anything to protect Tsume even if it meant lying to his father.his father told him not to worry about it as he will look into this person and get to the bottom of this, Christopher felt like he could have relaxed a little but he still knew that he couldn't let his guard down and still scared by the threatening message from Aya.

Tsume pov)

Tsume called her aunt to have a chat but since she was busy she left her a message that made her come over to the house faster then tsume thought

"Did my favorite niece really fulfill her happily ever after?"

"No, in a matter of fact the real reason why I called you was because I want you to leave Christopher alone"

Tsume said upset as Aya looked as if she had no idea what she was talking about

"Honey I have no idea what you're talking about"

"Keep telling yourself that and keep lying about what you're doing to him and to what you did to Ryuichi because I know the truth and if you think you're going to get away with blackmailing Christopher just so he can marry me you are messing with the wrong girl, and you know that I can get you back for what you've done to my friends"

Ays stood silent for a moment that she couldn't help but let the smile crept on her lips as she cleared her throat

"I always knew you were a great detective little Tsume but when you put your business and two other problems it may just backfire upon you"

"that may be true but I don't care what happens to me if you're going to go after someone try doing it from a distance and not over the phone"

"How do you know if I was talking to Chris? "

"You know how good Lily is with hacking don't you so of course she and the phone calls from Christopher's phone and the way you did it was from a payphone"

Tsume said

"I always knew you were my favorite niece"

Aya said reaching out to touch her but Tsume slapped her hand away

"Tell me why you're going after Chris we can negotiate and I won't have to call the cops"

Tsume said thinking that she has an upper hand over her aunt but she was always able to turn the tables

"I'm not going after Chris I'm trying to get rid of him, and I'm trying to prepare you and you're lovely soon to be husband for your wedding... You are still marrying him aren't you?"

"Ryuichi?, So now you want me to marry him?"

"Call it a change of heart. and besides whoever you choose to be your husband I will always support you"

"I really wish you would stop being this way you're making the life between us break, Aya, please... What is it that you want from me other than marrying"

"You already know that, sure I will admit that I thought that Ryuichi wasn't the one for you until Christopher came into the picture and yes I will also admit that I was the one who had Chris fall for you and hit on you but then he decided to go rogue and do things his own way, but in the end I was the one who got the love of your life back remember so in a long-run you should be thanking me"

Aya said as tsume sigh

"Think it about, where would you be now if Ryuichi didn't come back from Japan?"

"I would be with Chris duh!"

"Yes but for how long, surely you know Christopher and you had a thing back then and the only reason why he was dating you was because he didn't want you to be left alone and to ease your mind off of him, but would you really marry him if he asked you... I know you might have some bit of love for him after the way he treated you. You can even say that you probably secretly have a crush on him still"

"Stop playing with my feelings Aya, I love Ryuichi and I'll do anything to stay with him"

"Of course I know that sweetie but what I really want to know is the bittersweet relationship you share with your boss Christopher. I'm pretty sure you snuck a kiss or two in there with him"

Tsume face was burning red as she looked away from her aunt not wanting to admit that she and Chris had a bit of a makeup session but she knew she did love Ryuichi or did she?

"I promise I won't tell if you tell me, you know the secrets between us"

Aya said with a giggle as tsume thought about it and knew she could trust her but at the same time she didn't want to as of now it still came to the question who did she really want her to marry

"Why were you trying to set me and Tommy up on that cruise that day? Were you trying to get rid of two birds with one stone?"

"to be honest you two look like a perfect couple and then that's when I ran into his ex-girlfriend Rachel, the girl has some pointers of being a model but then again I can never hire someone with such poison in their blood especially since I already can tell she's jealous over you and Tommy's relationship"

Aya said

"Tommy and I don't have a relationship other than friendship and other than that Rachel is psycho!"

Tsume said almost shouting

"I know but I got to say I didn't think that she would attack you during your beautiful performance too bad the show had to end so soon before it gets finished"

I said as she walked into the kitchen to make yourself a cup of tea

"Hold on, you were there doing that crazy massacre thing with Alice in wonderland?!"

Of course dear I go to all of your music shows

Aya said as she fills a teapot with water and set it on the stove turning it on as she went to go sit on the sofa.

"So you knew she was going to kill me during that performance?"

Tsume asked as she follows her aunt to the sofa

"heaven's no if I knew that she was crazy like you said I would never had put her and Tommy's relationship back together"

"Okay now you're telling me something that I don't know about please explain"

"All right if you must know during your first around-the-world trip I'm sure Tommy missed you like heck even with anew girlfriend he still can't get you out of his mind. Until the day you finally did come back with the others you are a change purse but he craved you even more and I'm sure Rachel stole this as well which made her grow hatred for you so I'm guessing that first incident you were in the hospital because of her was a warning"

"She told you?"

"Yes she did with threatening and evidence she told me everything but she didn't tell me that she was going to try to kill you during the performance of Alice in Wonderland you're lucky. Christopher spotted this before things got really messy and I for one I'm really sorry for what happened and I am glad that you're okay don't be mad sweetie I do love you and for what she did she's lucky I couldn't put her behind bars since she took her boyfriend and fled to New York"

"Are they coming back?"

"Do you mean Rachel or do you mean Tommy?"

Aya asked crossing her arms but a smile

"I want to know if Tommy is ever going to come back?"

"forget about it honey because if he comes back she'll come back and she wants to remove you from Tommy's life... permanently and it'll be best if you just carry on with your own life"

Tsume thought about this and didn't understand her aunt sometimes she could be a total B sometimes and she could be a total Angel , it was very hard for anyone to know if she was good or bad, she can manipulate anybody into doing things that they would never think of especially knowing and figuring out their heart and their most wanted. all she needed was a couple of minutes with you before she starts pulling on your strings to know your true desires to leak out.but to Tsume for her to forget about Tommy wasn't a hard thing she just didn't think it was right for her to forget that she had a friend when coming here other than Kimi

"I guess so but will you stop bothering Chris and let him be happy for once I've seen this boy going to The darkest hour and it's a truly scary thing freaking to pick on him and Ryuichi I don't think I can keep going back and forth anymore"

"you don't have to you're with someone stay on that side and just don't pay attention to what I do"

"if I did that then you'll be everywhere and destroying everybody's lives why don't you just go after Rachel"

"Trying to get me off of your back huh?"

"something like that but since Tommy is with her I don't think that'll be a problem."

"Do I smell a deal or do I smell a death sentence?"

"I want to make a deal with you auntie"

"Oh, what kind of deal?"

Aya asked waiting as tsume said

"I want you to..."

The rest of her words was covered by the whistling steam from the teapot going off. After the talk with Aya felt really good about her next plane for her niece as she couldn't help but laugh at what tsume asked her to do.
