Hello loyal readers! As of recent, I've been thinking of expanding this story into a second story involving Kagome and Inuyasha in this universe. Please tell me what you guys think in the reviews, thank you!

As Rin was heading to work the next day, her phone rang. It was Kagome.

"Rin, you have to get here fast!"

"Why? What's wrong?"

"The boss is looking everywhere for you; he says it's important!"

"Shit. I'll be right there."

Hanging up, she sped toward the office. The receptionist shooed her into the elevator as soon as she arrived. Kagome met her at the door with a worried look.

"Did something go bad with your meeting last night?"

"No, why?"

"He's been in his office for the last half hour arguing with someone. I've heard your name six times already!"

The doors to her boss' office slammed open and he strode out with a cool expression, an indicator of his rage. Her boss, Naraku, was an intimidating man with odd violet eyes and long black hair. There were rumors that he was a demon, but he had never shown any signs of demonic power. His eyes landed on Rin and he beckoned her. She kept her head down as she came to stand before him.

"Rin," he said in an eerily calm tone, "You are the best damn secretary I've ever had. You know all of my numbers, my wife adores you, and you have never tried to seduce me."

"Thank you, sir."

"Unfortunately, someone else knows that as well and has offered me a large sum of money to let you transfer to their office. You will be making twice what I can give you here along with benefits."

She stared at him incredulously and he smirked back.

"A-Are you serious?"

"Yes. If you wish to take the job, I will allow you to transfer to that job without argument."

"Who would I be working for?"

"Inuyasha Taisho and his older brother."

"No thank you," she instantly deadpanned, "I like it here."

"He told me that you'd say that. Rin, this is a non-optional, immediate transfer."

"I quit."

"No you don't. You would never get another job."

"How do you know? You said I'm an amazing secretary."

"True," a cold sneer overtook his features, "But who would hire a girl who was blacklisted from Onigumo, Inc.?"

She paled slightly, knowing he was serious. If he blacklisted her, she would never be able to get a professional job again. She would lose everything. Rin chewed her lip slightly, balling her fists. What other option did she have? He did say she'd make twice her salary plus benefits. Sesshomaru would never dare try anything in the workplace. Not if he didn't want a scandal anyway. Taking a deep breath, she looked at Naraku. He was waiting patiently for her to respond.

"When will the transfer take place."

"He says he needs you ASAP. So, as soon as you can get your affairs in order. Oh, and take Kagome with you. I already told him you come in a set."

Kagome gawked, turning white.

"Who's going to be your secretary then?!"

"Already taken care of. Kanna will take your place until I find a suitable replacement."

Kanna was Naraku's teenage daughter who had graduated from high school early thanks to her high IQ. Unable to find much else to argue about, the girls set to work packing up their things and setting up the workplace for Kanna. They left sticky notes of numbers and how to operate certain things all over the cubicle to help her out. In all, it took the two women three hours and two boxes to move out of their desk.

"Well done ladies. It's a shame to lose two hardworking, intelligent employees but it is not in my control. Thank you for your time here and I hope to see you again sometime."

He handed them a page with directions on how to get to their new workplace and retreated back into his office.

"You drive and I'll follow?" Kagome suggested.

"Sounds good…"

They went outside where Rin cast one more forlorn glance at the place she had come to enjoy working at. Then they got into their cars and headed toward the building specified in the directions. She was surprised to discover that it was much closer to home than her previous job. Kagome whistled low as she gazed up at the sleek silver behemoth that was Taisho Corp.

"Might as well get it over with…"

They headed inside, where a tall woman tackled Rin in a bone-crushing hug.

"Rin Honju?! Oh my god, it's been so long!"

"H-Hi Sango. Long time no see."

Kagome looked at them curiously and she wiggled out of the taller woman's grasp.

"Kagome, this is Sango Karyudo."

"I used to be Rin's apprentice when she worked here. I don't know why she ever left."

Rin threw her best friend a knowing look. She had left because she couldn't risk Sesshomaru somehow hearing about Yuki. Of course he found out eventually, but that was a fluke. Kagome helped get her job at Onigumo, Inc.

"Well, the boss is waiting in his office for you. Same place as before."

"Thanks Sango."

They got in the elevator and she pressed six. Kagome looked surprised.

"His office is in the middle?"

"Yeah, for safety reasons. It's the most stable place to be."

She shrugged, tapping her toe nervously. Rin put a hand on her arm to calm her, internally freaking out. What in the hell was Sesh trying to do? Was he going to use this as a threat if she didn't bend to his will? The elevator dinged and she stepped out, walking face first into a solid, but pleasant smelling chest. Arms wrapped around her and she sighed. Once they let go, she looked up at the golden eyes she knew so well.

"Hello, . Pleasant seeing you here."

"You as well, Ms. Honju," he said monotonously, stepping back.

Kagome glared at him suspiciously, but he simply shrugged and had them follow him to the boss' office. Behind the desk was a slightly younger man dressed exponentially more casually than his counterpart, wearing a red button-up and jeans as opposed to a three-piece suit. His white fuzzy ears swiveled and twitched as he waited for them to enter. Rin heard her friend gasp softly, smiling to herself. She had seen many women go after Inuyasha in the time she was his secretary, but none were successful due to his intense dedication to his on-off fiancé, Kikyo. To her surprise, his amber eyes widened a bit as he looked at Kagome. He rose from his seat and met her halfway from the door.

"Hello, I'm Kagome Higurashi," she said with a slightly breathless tone.

"I'm Inuyasha Taisho."

Sesshomaru made a small noise of amusement that Rin decided to ignore, choosing instead to interrupt the awkward moment.

"Mr. Taisho, Naraku sent us here saying you requested we be transferred. Why so suddenly?"

"Well, to be honest, my latest secretary was a huge dud. She was disorganized, slow, and spent most of her time talking on the phone with her friends. Then I found out she was embezzling and fired her on the spot. I was having trouble finding a replacement when my brother mentioned you and reminded me how amazing you were."

She looked at Sesshomaru incredulously and he shrugged.

"Naraku said no at first, that you were the best he had too. Then he tried to ward me off by saying I'd have to take your partner too," he smiled at Kagome, "But I told that you were worth whatever it took and sweetened the deal with half a million dollars."

The tiny woman gawked before running forward to pound her fists against his chest.

"You bought me?! I thought he was joking! I oughta leave you with no secretaries! And take Sango too!"

He laughed, ruffling her hair, and his brother grimaced. Rin was so at ease with Inuyasha. She never would let him do something like that without getting angrier. It almost made him….jealous. Of course he wasn't though. Jealousy was for the weak who were insecure about being able to keep what was theirs. Sesshomaru was not insecure. Even so, he placed a hand on his younger brother's shoulder and suggested they get the contracts over with.

"Oh, yes, of course."

They all moved to the desk and sat down to look at the twin stacks of paper that were laid on it. The contracts were standard, discussing what was expected of them and their duties. When they reached the part about pay, Rin was dumbstruck.

"25 dollars and hour?!"

"Yes. I understand that you were making 12.40 over at Onigumo, Inc."

"Y-Yeah, but you didn't need to give us this much! This is insane!"

"You're worth it. Now, on to benefits. It has been brought to my attention you have a son?"

"Yes, he is three."

"We have an excellent daycare and preschool here."

"He has a preschool he goes to."

"Are you sure? We hire only the finest to work here."

She chewed her lip thoughtfully, looking at Sesshomaru. Though his face was stoic, his eyes were pleading. And, in an instant, she understood why he had pushed to have her hired here. It wasn't about her, it was about Yuki. If she worked here with him in the childcare center, he could see his son whenever he pleased. He wanted to have a connection with him. Her heart pulled at this.

"I-I'll talk to him about it. He can be very troubled by change."

"Okay. Now for the last article of business. Would you girls be willing to double as our P.A.'s?"

"Like, personal assistants?"

"Yes. You see, both of our current P.A.'s are a bit…disorganized to say the least. You would be paid more if you want."

"No, I don't need that. I'll do it," Kagome smiled.

"If she's alright with it, then I am too."

"Great! Just sign here and I'll let you two go home for the rest of the day so you can prepare for tomorrow."

They both signed and Inuyasha grinned, shaking their hands. Rin noticed Kagome's blush as his hand lingered on hers for two seconds. After that, Sesshomaru led the girls back to the elevator. His fingers rested on his prospective mate's shoulder and she sighed, mumbling only loudly enough for him to hear.

"If you try anything, I will sue you for sexual harassment and take everything."

"Rin," he whispered back with a dark chuckle, "You already have my everything. Taking my money away would nothing compared to if you took our son away."

"You just found out he existed less than a week ago."

"And whose fault is that?"

"You know damn well why I didn't tell you."

"Let me correct my mistakes then."

"I can't."

"Why not? If I have desire to prove myself and be in his life, why won't you let me? Is there a valid reason or are you simply too prideful to accept that he may like to know me as well?"

"I don't want my son to become a media target because you decided to be selfish! Everything isn't about you, you know!

Rin flinched as her intended whisper came out as a yell and people stared. Blushing dark, she ran inside the elevator with Kagome right behind her. He stared intensely as the doors closed and the girls descended toward the bottom floor. His brother touched his shoulder and he snarled, eyes blood red as he sent him flying through a window. Inuyasha hit the ground as the girls were stepping outside.

"Oh my god!"

"And that's why his office is on the sixth floor. Ain't that right, Taisho."

The hanyou stood, brushing himself off and popping his jaw back into place. He nodded to both women before going back inside. They looked at each other, one gawking in horror while the other was passive. Shrugging, she got in her car. She didn't care how bad his temper got; Until he could get it through his thick skull why she was concerned, she would not negotiate. Yuki was hers and had been raised solely by her since his birth. There was absolutely no way she'd let some demon barge in and screw everything up. Casting one more glance at the building, she headed to the store to pick up groceries before she had to get her son.
