Chap2
Previous Chapter:
The lady led them to a circular table located near the center of the dining area. After the two took their seats, the server gave them the menu book.
For the first time, Kaoru was oblivious with the feeling that someone is watching her.
A pair of amber eyes was staring at her back steadily. As if they were gulping down her form.
………………………………………………………………………………………………
'You will be mine, Kaoru. You will love me as much as I love you, as much as I adore you, as much as I am captivated by your facade.'
The enigmatic man eyed her while eating. He is sitting away from Kaoru and Sano's table at a reasonable distance.
'The memories of that day still drowns me.'
:Flashback mode:
A man finally set his feet on the marble flooring of the airport. He was in Japan, finally.
The man walked with confidence and power along the smooth floor of the airport. The bright lights illuminate his smooth, white skin. His two servants were at his heels, carrying his luggage.
He entered the Limousine, which was waiting for him outside the airport; his servants entered another black car. His limousine was in front of the car of his servants.
'I still have plenty of time to relax…' he relaxed his back against the soft seat of the limo. He closed his eyes; sleep overcame him.
After an hour or so, he was awakened by a soft voice.
"Master… master?"
"Yes? I'm awake."
"Master, we are here. Master, your suite is ready."
He gave no reply. He just stepped out of the limo and entered the Hotel. He will be staying there for a couple of months.
He went to the booth to get the keys to his suite. Then he entered the elevator, punched in the floor number. After getting out of the elevator, he walked along the hallway of the hotel, then he found the suite.
He sunk against the soft mattress and blankets of the bed. For the second time, his tiredness overcame him. He plunged in a dreamless slumber.
….morning came…
The light rays flooded the suite and revealed a king-sized bed . at the center of the bed, lies a handsome man. The light landed on his white cheeks, then he opened his eyes drowsily.
'Two months…I have more or less two months to relax…"
"What will I do for two months?" the man asked himself aloud.
The man, after freshening up, went down the hotel. His servants, who slept on the couches of their master's suite, followed him.
"Where's my Ferrari?"
"Master, it arrived a couple of hours ago, as you have requested."
"Call the valet, fetch my car. I'm eating out. You guys do what you want, but don't forget to turn on your phones, in case I call."
"Yes, master."
After telling the valet boy to get the black Ferrari, the man sped off.
He parked his car in the building of the first class restaurant he would be eating in. it is already 11:30, so he decided to eat lunch, after all, its just half an hour before noon.
The server of the restaurant led him towards a table. He sat on the soft cushions of the chair gently. Then something, or rather someone, caught his attention.
There he saw the most captivating eyes, the most innocent smile, and it belonged to a woman.
He forgot all about the world, his mind was directed to her, only to her.
She was talking cheerfully with a petite, black-haired girl.
He flipped out his cellphone.
"Yes Master?" the voice on the other line greeted him.
He told his servants to go to the place he is presently eating at. After fifteen minutes or so, two men were heading towards the table of the mysterious man.
"Can you see that lady over there? The one with the small woman with black hair?"
"Master, the sapphire-eyed one with long hair?"
"Precisely."
"Master, what do you want us to do for you?"
"I want both of you to find all of the information you can get about that woman. And I mean all of the information about her. I want it this afternoon. Put it on the desk near my bed."
"Yes Master."
After eating (and staring at the girl), he went out to buy stuff he need.
His little trip only made him think about the raven-haired girl that he saw a few hours ago.
She infected his mind.
He is drawn to her. Her ki suggested that she is courageous, strong but a little immature.
…………………………
Upon entering the suite that afternoon, the first thing that he did was go to the desk where a thick, brown envelope rests.
He opened the thick folder.
There, he read the information about Kaoru Kamiya.
'Kamiya…' he smiled.
The information started on Kaoru's college life.
There, it says that she went to the top and most prestigious university of Japan. She got good grades and positive remarks from her professors.
She belonged to the student council of the university, the Art Society (its like a club) and the Kendo Society.
He was really amused that she knows how to use a sword.
Then he read that she is the Vice-President of Kamiya Corporations. Her brother, Sanosuke Kamiya, is the President.
'Kamiya Corporations huh?" he amusingly said to himself.
With the information on her career, comes the data about her schedules, projects, achievements, so on and so forth.
Since then, he was always following her.
Since he has her schedule of her lunch breaks, her meetings and other stuff, he followed her everywhere she goes. But at an unsuspicious distance.
That went on for a couple of months.
:end of flashback:
(back to the restaurant)
"Kaoru, how's the food?"
"Oni-chan, the food is great…..Can we go home now? I am really tired and I know you are, too."
"Of course, let me pay first."
After they got the bill and paid it, they went to their home.
…………………………..
Kaoru, walked in their house first. After a couple of seconds, Sano followed.
"Oni-chan, I'll go ahead in my room okay? I'm really tired…" it was true, she is tired. If you were to spend the entire day working to the bone and when you go out, you are followed, who wouldn't be tired?
"It's okay Kaoru, I'm going to sleep myself. Goodnight."
"Goodnight."
After their nightie-nights, they went in their own rooms.
Kaoru took a bath first, then blow-dried her hair. After her nightly routine is finished, she got ready to sleep.
She rested her head on the soft pillow, she thought:
'It was a couple of months ago…''It started after Misao and I ate at that Asian restaurant… Its creeping me out…If this feeling of mine won't stop, I'll tell oni-chan…'
Her thoughts are slowly fading, slowly reclining to the darkness of deep slumber.
………………………….
The morning came; the day went through well, then replaced by night.
She still felt being watched.
She decided to tell her brother, but she will mention it to him after the meeting with their client from America.
Days were the same, work, work and work. Oh, one more additional, she still felt being watched.
Unnoticeably, the meeting with Kamiya Corporation's foreign client was the day after…
Readers, the mysterious man is drawn to Kaoru because she looks different from other girls he met. Her aura is strong, bold, at the same time, immature. So, that's it, she's unique.
Sorry for the short chapter.
Because this chapter is dedicated for the time when the enigmatic man saw Kaoru.

Review Responses:
Cherryblossom – the part where the mysterious man saw Kaoru is done. Thanks for the review!
Aznmoonstargurl - the part when they will meet will be in the next chapter. Watch out for it! Thanks for praising my stories; it really motivates me to write!
Meet A.L.E.X.- hey, I hope this chapter answers your question. Kaoru isn't being stalked, the mysterious guy is just captivated by her (you do think that she's alluring, right?). The question who the guy is? Well, just continue reading!
And thank you to all of the reviewers! Sorry if I can't post all of your names, please understand that I give review responses to the people who ask questions.. ; )
