Chapter Two

Shaking her head, Kagome put on her best waitress smile. "Hello, how may I help you, sir?" she asked him. He didn't answer, he just continued staring at her. She cleared her throat and tried again. "Sire...are you feeling ok?"

His penetrating eyes finally blinked and he smiled coolly at her. "Sorry, I must have spaced out." The stranger walked to the spotless counter and sat down on a stool.

"Can I get you anything to drink?" the girl asked him. His eyes moved over the menu board above her as he thought.

"Coffee," he finally answered.

"Right away," she remarked cheerily and went into the kitchen.

When she came back carrying his cup and the coffee part, his eyes were burning into her again. She placed the drink in front of him and hastily stepped away. Kagome nervously toyed with her hair and the man's eyes followed her every move.

"Anything to eat, sir?" she girl asked, not approaching.

"No thank you," he read her nametag, "Kagome." The way her name rolled off the man's tongue sent unpleasant chills down her spine. "What a pretty name you have, Kagome."

"Th-thank you, sir." She took another step back.

The stranger's cold stare locked on her eyes. "It must be frightening working so late by yourself." She tried not to let her surprise show. Before the girl could respond he asked, "Can I have some more coffee, Kagome?"

It made her uncomfortable, the way he kept saying her name. "Of course," she replied, filling his cup. She backed away as soon as she was done.

Her nerves were making her shift her weight from foot to foot. The man wasn't looking at her so she was finally able to look at him. He had long, slightly curly, dark brown hair pulled back into a sloppy ponytail. His skin was pale and he had a cold attractiveness to him. His eyes flicked up and he saw her gaze resting on him. He smiled and finished off his beverage.

"Excuse me Kagome, may I have another refill?"

Kagome noticed how the shadows on his clothes and face seemed too dark. Still, she came forward to fill his mug.

As soon as the girl was within reach, the man seized her wrist and yanked her towards him.
