Chapter 101 - How is it possible that your mine?

Setsuta had no doubt that nothing would have changed. Why does she think this way? Akito could only stare at her in shock. Ever since he met her, she's rendered him speechless in his days than one. But these days, that has increased even more. He wrapped his arms around the girl's waist, and she hugged him tightly in return. Perhaps she is right, even if he knew how twisted her personality was. Nothing would have changed.

If he were to be honest, Akito didn't like it when she was meek. He liked it better when she had spunk - not that he looked down on her for being fragile. Akito understood that the girl had gone through a lot. To have nightmares that would cause her to tremble every single night. What kind of life did she live?

Akito felt Setsura loosened his top half until it exposed his neck. "It seems like, your silence tells me to prove my words with actions?"

He chuckled, "Well, I wouldn't mind if you did whatever you wanted with me."

Setsura sighed, "What a lazy man, we only just started dating. But your already showing such signs...of greed. But, I suppose I am one to talk," she murmurs the last line quietly. "My strong and handsome Akito," he felt her lips on his neck. "How is it possible that you're mine?"

Military Police Headquarters

"You have to do something about it, the murders have increased. The recent case was terrible. They killed many people."

Akito only nodded his head. During these circ.u.mstances, rather than speak the best thing to do is nod and obey. While he is not the type of person who would meekly follow another person's orders. He knew when the best situation not to speak is.

"While I have jurisdiction on this case. You have to remember that I'm no longer the section one chief. There is a limit to the moves I can make," his gaze hardened. "If you have complaints, bring this up with the one in charge."

His eyes were piercing and deadly.

He's already spent the entire morning listening to their complaints. Just now when he got a look at the clock, he realized something. He is late to his lunch date with Setsura. Knowing these guys. The meeting will not end anytime soon. He might as well stop being polite.

"We understand that, but…"

Kaito interjected, "No, he makes a point there. Why can't we give him the jurisdiction to lead the case? Section one don't give a shit about this case and you know it."

"Oi, don't say that what if.."

A man with auburn coloured hair around 170cm stepped forward. A stern gaze on his face as he slammed his hand on the table.

"You're so scared of Touma! But what can a brat like that do?!" Kaito said angrily. "Look, even during this incidence. The one who saved the victims were Sir Chauncey Long and Akito. A member of the mafia and the former section one leader! Where was he during the latest case?"

Kaito is as hasty as ever. But Akito understood why the man was acting this way. With the current progress, the investigation regarding the shard case will go nowhere. They have not yet caught the leader for the men in white organization.

"Elder Yin," Akito spoke up. "Will you consider it? If I'm in charge of this case, I will give you not only results. But I will save people's lives."

Yin sighed, "It's not that I don't want to give it to you Akito. But, you…"

"The only thing that has changed is that I'm not the section one chief leader. But that has actually worked for your benefit hasn't it? Both sides understand that as long as I was tied to section one. I could not move freely, somebody above will control my actions. With the changes the last few years, we simply drove away the unnecessary things weighing us both down."

Yanagi the deputy spoke up. It surprised Akito that it was not Yanagi making a fuss but Akito. "Unnecessary things? Even now we are still delaying with that."

"I apologize for not providing help, at the time I was not in the condition to do so."

The atmosphere grew heavier then, just like Akito thought it would. Everybody in the police force is responsible for what happened with his late wife after all. If only they didn't send him away on that stupid job. It was all a part of their plan whenever Akito thought about it. It would irritate him. And now, they think they can show themselves in front of him? How ridiculous.

His thoughts broke when Kai whispered something in his ear. Akito stood up, "Then, while you all think about your answer. I shall take a break now."

Akito didn't wait for a response and strolled out of the room. "Where is she?"

"I left her in your office sir."

Akito nodded and hurriedly made his way down. From here, it didn't take that long to reach his office. He purposely ensured that the meeting was near his place to a certain his position. Honestly, Akito didn't care for his position in the force anymore. But he figured that Setsura would have an easier time accessing information, if he had more power.

He needs to snatch away the leading jurisdiction for this case from Touma. His thoughts broke off when somebody grabbed hold of his hands and pulled him into the office. Akito's lips curve to a smile when he realized who it was. 

"Setsura."

"Your late, how could you leave me waiting?" It was clear the girl wasn't pleased at all. 

"Mmm, I'm very sorry."

Setsura reached over and caressed his face, "Are you really sorry?"

"Well, maybe I'm not. Will you give me the appropriate punishment?" He was joking around like usual of course. But, after what happened the other day. Setsura has gotten bolder, so Akito was looking forward to what she was planning.

Indeed, right as he thought this he felt the girl's lips on his. It was a brief kiss, Setsura still couldn't give him a long kiss. But that was fine for Akito, he liked how despite her brazen personality. She is shy whenever it comes to intimacy. "Since you're mine for some strange reason I still do not understand. Then, you'll apologize won't you?"

Her logic is so twisted at times. But, he does not dislike it at all. Then again, it seems like he doesn't dislike anything she does. 

"What don't you understand?"

Setsura sighed, "Our relationship. I knew you had some screws loose the moment we met. But, we really ended up dating."

Akito laughed, why is she mentioning this now? What a peculiar girl. Akito wrapped his arms around her waist, hugging her from the back. His lips trailed on her neck, "You came here for me. Because I'm late?"
