The Masked Fox

6

The next night the Sakusa's and Komori were anxiously waiting for the masked assassin to arrive to their weekly family dinners. They had already been seated and had food in front of them, starting to eat. "Tch. So rude. Not waiting for your guest before starting your meal." A voice spoke into the silence of the room making the alphas head snap towards the door of the dining room. "I must say though, it smells delicious." The assassin complimented as he walked towards the table. Kota saw red when he heard and saw the masked man and he ran at him only for the alpha to be tripped and face planted into the ground. 

"Fucking cunt!" Kota yelled as he got up and went to rush the assassin from behind only to be dodged again and again despite the assassin having his back turned to the Sakusa. 

"It's rude to insult and attack your guests. You really should learn your manners. If this ever happened at my home my mother would be beating the shit out of me." The assassin spoke as he walked and took a seat at the table completely unbothered by Kota's actions. The spot available was right across from Kiyoomi and in between Emiko and Fumiko. Kiyoomi stared into Fox's eyes in such an intense way that anyone with common sense would look away from the deadly stare down, even his own family would look away. The assassin just stared back. "You know if you like my eyes that much just say so. I don't mind a compliment, I actually welcome them." The assassin said which made Kiyoomi let out a short, deep, threatening growl directed towards the masked man. 

"I hate you." Kiyoomi snapped out. 

"That's rude of you. I dislike you but I don't hate you." Fox replied before looking down at the food on the plate in front of him. "Thank you for the food." He said before starting to eat. Wearing a half mask instead of his usual full faced mask, this mask not covering the bottom half of his face. "This is delicious." He complimented the cooking. 

"Foxy, as much as I don't like you, I want to thank you for helping my girls. They say they have never felt safer than now, with you around." Emiko thanked the assassin to help with the tension in the room and because she had been meaning to for a long time. The masked man looked at her and nodded. 

"Truly it is my pleasure. They are all lovely women and many have families they must provide for. Strippers and Sex workers are still workers and I respect their profession, my mother would kill me if I ever disrespected someone due to their livelihood." Fox responded to her thanks warmly. 

"You seem to be much more open about your life now. I mean you even mentioned that you have a mother." Kiyoomi stated and Fox looked at him. 

"Everyone has a mother Kiyoomi, the person who births you isn't necessarily a mother but the one who raises you and loves you like a mother would is. The same applies with fathers. I mean what would it reveal about me other than I deeply respect and fear my mother." Fox said in confidence. 

"I mean he isn't wrong cousin, everything that he has revealed is nothing to make us know more about him or discover his identity. I'm Komori Motoya, the person who's tires you punctured with knives." Komori introduced himself not thinking that he would be known by name to the assassin seeing as to others he is next to nothing compared to his cousins. 

"I know who you are Komori, you are very skilled I must say. Your people skills are remarkable and extremely important to the underworld. I know many people who would kill to have someone like you work for them. Especially since communication is probably the most important thing in the sort of world we live in. Being able to make such miraculous deals with hard to work with people, not to mention the negotiations and the paperwork that goes with them. You do most the communicating civilly. I wonder why you don't become a lawyer." Fox ranted a little and Komori blushed slightly from a mix of embarrassment and the like for being complimented.
