When Alice sends a graduation invite to a long lost family member things change.

"Edward whose this chick?"
"This chick has a name."
"This is Rain Cullen. She is the oldest "sibling" of our family."

It had been a year since Taeyong began working at Black Ice. He was Rain's assistant. She seem like she was from a different world, or possibly a separate time. It wasn't just her, though. It was Johnny and Yuta, as well as their friends.
Another thing was her sunglasses. She barely ever took them off. Was she an alcoholic? Is that why? She was just hungover all the time. Right?
Her mannerisms didn't match that theory though. She was always serious and cold. She never yelled or got angry. Or even happy either. She was an enigma.
Taeyong was dragged out of his thoughts by Doyoung, a team leader of the vocal department. "Mr. Lee can you let Mrs. Kim know I finished all the reports? I have meeting in five." Taeyong nodded and got up.
He went to her door and knocked. "Come in." Her soft voice sounded from behind the door. He went in to see her typing away on her computer.
"Doyoung wanted you to know he finished the reports." She nodded. "Mr. Lee can you have Jaehyun send me everything about the gala tomorrow."
Ah yes, the quarterly charity gala. It was weird that Ten and Jaehyun worked here. Ten was a intern and Jaehyun was in charge of all company functions and finances.
"Yes, Ms Kim." He nodded and wrote something down. "Will you be going this time?" She asked as she looked up from her computer. Her strange eyes pearing over her glass at him. "Yes. Mr. Jung begged me too." He answered.
She chuckled. "I must warn you. A investor is coming and he is looking for a husband for his daughter." She began. "He's already tried to convince Doyoung, Taeil, and Kun."
Taeyong nodded. "You'd look handsome in red." She said bluntly. That caught him off guard. Did she think he was handsome?
"It'll go well with the dress code." She said with out missing beat. He seemed to deflate a bit. "Of course, Ms. Kim."
She chuckled suddenly. "What?" He asked. "You're blushing, Mr. Lee." She said with a grin and got up. "I'll take my lunch now." She said and left the room.
Rain had those moments of teasing and then she'd go back to her cold self. It gave Taeyong whiplash. And for some reason he liked it.

It was finally the gala and Taeyong was already over it. Three different women in their late 40s had asked him to be their sugar baby. Two girls his age almost fell down trying to be 'sexy and sensual'. Four men had made increasingly crude remarks. He was lucky that Ten heard the men and now they were hiding away from him and his "guard dog". He understood. He was hot.

However all he could think about was Rain. She was beautiful tonight. And agitated. Very very agitated. He could swear he caught her break her glass. Twice. But all he could think about was her outfit.
