As Akira walked from the kitchen area, she found a handsome man waiting for her in the corridor. His lips were stretched in his usual wicked smile, but there was a trace of madness and a hint of obsession in his dark eyes.
That look made Akira pause in her steps, giving him an opening to approach her.
The possessiveness in his eyes as he walked towards her scared something in her, but she did not turn away from him or attempt to walk away before he reached her. Instead, she stopped completely and faced him.
She looked directly into his strange eyes without backing down.
The hint of obsession seemed to intensify as he backed her into the hallway wall and trapped her with his arms around her. The kabe-don caused Akira to be enveloped by the scent of cherry blossoms and mint.
The man leaned closer to Akira's face until only a short distance was left between their faces and lips. Still, Akira maintained eye contact with him and refused to show any indication of fear.
