Once the plan was talked out between all four of us and everything was explained to them Naiomi scolded me for keeping everything a secret and Kadachi didn't seem to think of me any less.
They were both happy to be included and agreed right away, they were to stay home and if we were not able to make it back in time they were to say we were sick from our injuries from the days prior.
We made our way outside beside the main gate. Security was on high alert since what happened a few days ago but Kirito showed me a way that no one knew about, we went climbed a tree and jumped over the side of the wall, Kirito jumped first since my shoulder was still pretty messed up and I jumped next landing ok on the ground, we then made our way to the streets where we flagged down a taxi and got into the back.
" Hey, sir is it alright if I change in here I'll be covered. "
I ask shyly and he shrugs.
" Do what you have to I don't care! "
Kirito's eye twitches
" Are you seriously going to change with two guys here? "
I pull my backpack off and throw him a suit and a tie as I pull a long sparkly white dress that has no shoulders and a low ending open back.
" Yeah and so are you! "
he flinched at that and took his coat off to block the driver from peeping then he turns his head away as well.
" Hurry up before my arms fall off! "
I giggle and then hurry up and change.
( Thanks Naiomi for the dress, it sucks that I have to leave my hair down though if I don't then everyone will see my scars and wound and won't stop asking me questions. )
The patch on my shoulder is covered by my hair as well and once fully dressed I turn around so he could dress too, then I apply makeup and also cover up the fang scars on my neck, the area was still pretty sensitive and hurt when I touched it. After a few moments in the taxi, we stop at a fairly large Villa that had people in formal attire everywhere. I was confident up until now and I grew even more nervous once I stepped out of the taxi, Kirito steps up beside me.
" Do you want to back out now? "
I shake my head.
" No, if I do then I fear we might have a repeat of what happened a few days ago. "
He smirks and begins to walk, I follow behind him and we enter the building, it was filled with a lot of chatter and dancing, my heart felt like it was beating 100 miles per hour I could feel it throbbing against my chest as I scanned the crowd to see if Kazuki was among them, I hadn't realized I was holding my breath till I let out a sigh of relief for the moment I needed to collect my thoughts before I can approach him. Kirito nudges my arm just then and I look towards where he was pointing, at the top of the balcony stairs was a man and two women, I recognized them immediately, It was Xiaxia Shun, Izumi Shun, and Tsubasa Shun, Xiaxia had short curly blond hair, and her Mother had braided blond hair with grey streaks running through it. Mr. Shun had short grey hair and had a cane, then out walks behind them Was no other than Kazuki. He has long black hair and dark blue eyes, he looked like he has more muscle on him than the last time I saw him, I lift the bottom of the dress off the floor with one hand and take a deep breath.
( I never wanted to see this family again, especially Kazuki. )
-Kirito-
I watch her in her silent struggle to bring herself to walk towards him so I casually walk to her side and take her hand into mine and begin to help guide her up the staircase by walking alongside her.
-Yuki-
My heart flutters as he holds my hand but it makes me feel a little better and not as nervous, once at the top of the stairs Kirito lets my hand go and Kazuki noticed me right away and his face looked harmless and kind for that moment he looked like any caring older brother would but I knew all too well to base anything off of his facial expressions, he's the honest time but at the same time crazy. He claps his hand together and strides towards me with his arms open wide to give me a hug but Kirito steps in front of me and Kazuki look at him curiously.
" Dear sister it's been so long! I haven't seen you in over a year what's with your bodyguard? Haven't you missed your older brother? "
he speaks matter-of-factly and I shake my head.
" No brother you have it all wrong, I was hurt while training so my friend here is helping me out tonight, I don't wish to have physical contact with anyone at this time it's not you. "
( Just a little longer )
I thought to myself and it killed me to play this little game when he was just so close to me I could have ended It right here and right now but I knew that I couldn't do anything at that moment and it angered me. I kept a calm smile as my Stepsister grabs ahold of my hand.
" Little Yuki it's been a while since we have last seen each other how are you doing? "
Xiaxia was a sweet girl but I was still unsure if she was in on the scheme as well and tried to keep my distance.
" I have been fine and you? Also Happy Birthday to you! "
she smiles politely and cheerfully responds
" Thank you and I'm better now that Kazuki has returned! Isn't it just a blessing that he's come back to us I was really worried he was gone forever! "
I nearly choke on my saliva at her words and cough, I cover my mouth and she pulls her hand away from mine
" Oh goodness, Yuki are you all right? "
I nod.
" Yes I'm fine I just need a glass of water. "
Kazuki motions for the waiter who had a glass cup and pitcher full of water to come over and orders him to fill up a glass for me.
" poor Ms. Yuki some water "
He bows and does as he's told and hands me a glass of cool water. Kazuki's Father Tsubasa then steps forward and looks down at me.
" Yuki we have to have a private discussion so now that everyone is here let's head back to my office. "
I nod and he then begins to lead the way, with the rest of us following, Kazuki walked alongside Xiaxia in front of me and Kirito, I took a deep breath and let it out slowly and silently.
( I don't understand why the police haven't arrested Kazuki since he's been back, I was thinking maybe they would by now but now that I'm here I'm starting to wonder. )
we finally arrive and he pushes the door open and we all enter the room, Tsubasa then looks at Kirito.
" You aren't allowed in here wait outside this is a family matter. "
I quickly intervene and step beside Kirito grabbing his hand.
" Please let him stay Uncle he's my...He's my boyfriend we have been together for quite some time now. "
he looks at the both of us and then sighs.
" Alright, he can stay if it's that serious. "
I smile and say thank you and he sits down at his desk placing his cane to the side
" Since the Hiroshimae and Gong family has no male heir that would leave Yuki next in line since Yuki is the only living blood Heir to the name, So everything ultimately goes to your name, but I called you here to ask for the Shun family shares back I will pay any desired price."
( So all of this is just because of the company shares? What about Kazuki who murdered my entire family?! Have they all forgotten he was the one who did this?! )
I grew angrier as he talked and I crossed my arms and interrupted him.
" I'm sorry Uncle but I won't sell the shares back to you. "
