"I'll be out shortly."  Yasu said as he sighed softly.  His mind began to race as his heart beat faster and faster.  

"You don't have to go."  Gin told Yasu. "I can go in your place.  No one knows that you're the owner of Black Fox Teahouse.  Should the Third Prince recognize you, all of your efforts will be wasted."

Yasu opened his mouth to argue, but Gin quickly kissed his lips.  Effectively shutting him up.  

"Besides, with your red, puffy eyes anyone can tell that you've been crying.  And I'm pretty sure your lips are swollen too." Gin grinned as he rubbed Yasu's lips with his thumb.  "Besides, the others won't break my cover. They'll pretend as well and ensure that your identity stays hidden."  

Yasu hugs Gin tightly before kissing his cheek.  

"Thank you."  Yasu tells him sincerely.  

"What is there to thank when I've already pledged my life to you."  Gin told him.  

Yasu reluctantly stands up from Gin's lap and light up the lamp inside of the office.  The sight of Yasu's puffy, red eyes and swollen kissable lips caused another rush of lust to run through his body.  Yasu's cheeks quickly dyed pink with embarrassment. The raw lust that Gin gazed upon him made it hard for Yasu to move.  

Yasu quickly looked away to gather his thoughts and emotions.  Business was business. Pleasure was pleasure. And at the moment, with his enemy on the second floor, he needed to concentrate on his goal for revenge.  

Yasu walked towards Gin and helped him fix his hair.  Gin's silky soft strands of hair were gathered on top of his head and twisted.  The hair pin that was dropped on the floor was picked up and placed back into the bun.  Once done with his task, Yasu walks around to fix Gin's hair and look at his creation.  

"Hmmm.  Very handsome."  Yasu said as he nodded his head up and down.  

"Tsk."  Gin tsked as he smiled.  "Go wash your face. You'll scare the other servants." 

"Humph."  Yasu snorted before walking to the closet to take out a new uniform for Gin.  

The one Gin was wearing was wet and wrinkled.  Gin took off his uniform shirt, his heavy lidded eyes stared intently at Yasu.  As if he was challenging Yasu to look away. Yasu's cheeks was lit with a brighter hue.

Gin reached out with a smirk on his face to grab the uniform out of Yasu's hands and threw his worn shirt to the chair.  With a heated gaze, Yasu watched Gin wear his new uniform shirt and fix it neatly. Yasu clenched and unclenched his hands several times, forcing himself to calm down.  

"Boss Gin should go greet the guests.  We can't keep Young Lord Fuyin and the Third Prince waiting."  Yasu softly whispered as his throat became dry.  

"Hmm."  Gin agreed along with Yasu before walking towards him.  Gin leans down and gently cups Yasu's face and pecked Yasu's lips before licking them wantonly.  "Wait for me to come back."  

Yasu could only nod his head obediently and watch Gin leave the office.  The moment Gin closes the door, Yasu slowly raises his hand and slaps his cheek.  The hit wasn't hard nor light, but it was enough to make Yasu realize that he wasn't dreaming.  

"The cute and fluffy puppy is actually a wolf."  Yasu said to himself.  

[Yes.  A very handsome and hungry wolf.]  Tsuki agreed. Her thoughts were not said to Yasu, but to herself.
