Reader x Kaneki Ken [Beauty was a man; Book 2]

|It's you|

___ was taken by the CCG. Haise could only ask them not to kill her which she was thankful for. The day she got captured was the best day of her life. She finally found her Kaneki, the real him.

"What do you know about rabbit?" Akira asked. She had to know. Her father was killed by that ghoul.

"I don't know the rabbit." ___ answered. This earned her a punch from Akira. "You'll tell me! I'll rip the information out of you if I have to." The blonde told her before walking out of the room.

Outside, Haise was watching. He felt so hurt whenever ___ took a hit. She was in there because she had tried to protect him. He had to protect her too.

Akira watched the boy suspiciously. "Why are you so interested in this ghoul?" She asked him. Haise snapped his attention to her and shook his head.

"I'm not, I'm just worried about you." He told her. Lies, you don't care. ___ could hear their conversation and she could deny it all she wanted but hearing Haise say those words hurt her.

Akira let him inside for a while. "See if you can get her to talk." She said before leaving him with ___.

"___?" He called out her name softly. She didn't look at him. She looked down and coughed out blood. Haise took a tissue out of his pocket and wiped her mouth.

"Why are you here? Go worry over Akira." She said furiously. Haise's eyes widened. Was she jealous? "___, this isn't really a good time to feel jealous over someone like Akira. You know I was lying. You know I love you." He stated.

___'s eyes started to water. She missed him. She missed him so damn much. "Kaneki." She whispered as tears poured out of her eyes.

Haise cupped her cheek. "I'm here, okay? I won't leave you again." He promised as he wiped her tears.

"I missed you so much." She told him. He frowned. He wished he could remember the moments they had before he was Haise.

"I'm sorry that I didn't protect you. I'll do everything I can for now." He told her. ___ nodded. She could suddenly smell Akira nearby. She gave Haise a look and he nodded. "I know. I'll see you later." He told her before walking out of the room.

Akira walked in with someone she did not expect. The female ghoul glared at the man next to the blonde. He frowned and fast-walked towards ___. "So, what is it about this ghoul?" Akira asked the man.

Haise silently listened from outside as the conversation went on. The man sighed and gave Akira a serious look.

"She is my daughter."
