Inuyasha

Chapter 6: Dinner Arrangement

"Search! I want every single details!" Kagome angrily issued the order in a deathly calm but held back controlled tone as she sat herself down into her chair. Her fingers tapped on the table as the sound of her nails tapping against the wooden counter top could be heard clearly.

The shipment had arrived safely, everything went smoothly, a little too smoothly that it did not give her much trouble, and even allowed her to return back to have some shut eye before needing to go back to work. However it was in the afternoon when she had gotten news of their shipment of products had already been switched.

She was sure and careful about the whole process, somewhere along the way, at least when she is not looking, meaning somewhere mid-ocean, something had gone wrong, or someone had played them out. Her eyes sharp, pointed and glaring looked out into air as she played the whole night's scenario over and over again in her head to make sure that she did not miss out anything.

"I see you're having a little trouble," he voiced out, entering into her office as though he owned the place and had no need to be remorseful or care that it was inappropriate.

Kagome frown, the displeasure upon her face even more prominent than usual as her finger continued to tapped against the wooden surface of her table, impatient and wanting him to get on with the explanation for his appearance in her office, without an appointment.

"I come bearing gifts," Naraku told her with a smile as he took a seat on the sofa in her office where she would sometimes have her casual meetings.

"Don't be too quick to chase me out," he drawled, reading off her mood the very first moment that she notice of his presence.

She remained silent, not saying a single word as she glared at him. And what is going on in her mind at the moment is really to get rid of him, and quickly.

"I heard from a little birdie of your problem, and would like to offer you my help in having acquiring another shipment of goods," he told her with all smiles, but to her she sees nothing but sharp edges and possible traps that he might be trying to set up more than trying to help.

"There's nothing to be suspicious of about my intentions, I'm purely looking to do this to sincerely help you," he told her with a mock pitiful look upon his face like she had kicked his puppy or something.

"You happen to know a lot," Kagome commented dryly ire in her tone as her eyes looked sharply at him.

"I make it my business to now just about everything when it concerns you," Naraku purred, walking over to her as he leaned his face in closer to her own, only to have her reached out with a hand to shove him away.

Her eyes glimmered in warning, wanting to do nothing more than to cause him some serious damage at the moment, but her rational side keeps her sane enough to keep calm. Her hand played with the pen not too far from her reach as she twirled it in her hand, eyes hooded as she watched the pen spins.

There is a thick tension in the air that even he knows that he should not be teasing her any longer as he finally took the conversation to a more serious tone of discussion about her current situation.

"I'll think about it," was her last few words to him before Naraku left her office and to her own thinking as she weight the situation in her mind.

There was just about nothing to lose on her end by the look of things, and more so for her side to benefit than he did, and all as a sign of goodwill. However, with Naraku she could not help but to be worried and on top of that, even more cautious than ever when dealing with him. He's as slippery as a fish and just as dangerous as well.

"If you're free tonight, I would like to meet, over dinner if you're available," she messaged over the phone to his.

Naraku smiled, knowing that it was a sooner or later thing before she would call for him. Since the day that he had seen her there, she more or less captured his attention, and has been interested in her subsequently. It put him in a good mood that day knowing that she is meeting him out of her own want and request and not his.

He was not quick to reply him, but instead took his time to reply, not showing his eagerness. Kagome was quick to reply, within minutes in fact, and it muses him even more. The deal was she really that eager about it, perhaps he should up the price for it to gain something out of it.

Kagome places her phone back into sleep mood, a dark cloud passes through her face as she wondered on her next move and the current situation again, wondering on whether or not she did the right thing in making a deal with him.

"What have you found," Kagome called up a person, hoping to hear what she hopes to hear, a positive answer.

They needed a person to put the blame on and the problem is now they have found quite a number of leaks, a number of leaks that would need her to uncover some tracks and evidence before she present it to the others. They are that troublesome, especially when it might involve someone of their Family member.

"No luck, we're digging for more," was the last thing the person said before Kagome immediately hang up and finished up her work, leaving her secretary to make the necessary arrangements for dinner.

Just the thought of tonight's dinner, made her feel tired, especially when she has to deal with Naraku later.

"Kagome Higurashi," Naraku mumbled her name beneath her breath, amused and yet anticipating their dinner together.
