"She's back." Feitan pointed out.

All eyes were on me as I gracefully strutted past them. Machi, bold as she is, stood up either her arms crossed "tell your husband to stop calling me."

She knew exactly what she was doing. Either she truly wanted him to stop calling her or she's implying he's still calling her. Either way, she's trying to embarrass me in front of the troops and I won't give her the satisfaction. " tell my husband to stop calling me. Honestly if your going to be a whore at least be a good one. What good are you if he's still hounding me?"

"The boss wants you to wait here." Hisoka said from a far distance. In front of the troops he acts as a completely different person. But this version of him I can tolerate. He leaves me alone.

"Why ask me to come if he isn't here?" I asked.

"Something came up."

"Excuse me while I go make a call." Turning around I walked back outside and dialed Chrollo

"Yes?"

"Let's make one thing clear. You hired me. Therefor you need me. I don't need you. I'm a very professional woman chrollo. If I'm told to be somewhere to meet with my client i expect my client to be there. You not being here violates the contract and gives me every right to terminate this agreement. The first time I let it slide and your troupe nearly killed my brother. That's strike one. Strike two is telling me to meet you here and you NOT being here. Now I'm going to leave because my time is money and your wasting it right now. If there's a strike 3 your troupe dies. Understood?"

"I don't take threats lightly y/n."

"I don't care about what you do and don't take lightly. Make sure it doesn't happen again or I'm starting off with the girl in pink hair. Did I make myself clear ?"

"Crystal"

"Good."

Hanging up the phone Hisoka stood at the doorway eavesdropping "sounds more personal than it does business." He said.

"This doesn't concern you."

Hisoka walks up and tries wrapping his arms around me but quickly got pushed away "excuse me? When did I ever give you the impression to grab me freely? Does no one around here take me seriously? Honestly, being a woman in this business gets tiring." I mumbled "don't touch me or you'll lose your fingers."

He chuckled "I thought you liked me"

"How unfortunate. I didn't take you for being this stupid. Besides you set me up. You deliberately took me to that restaurant to talk business when in reality you wanted me to see machi and illumi together."

" did that hurt you?"

"It's going to hurt you. Drop it. I don't want to talk about my personal business with you."

"Good then you can take me to your room.."

I stopped and looked at Hisoka closely. The nerve of him to say such things at a time
Like this ... it wasn't like him. Especially with everyone inside ... of course.....

"Of course..." I sighed. "Illumi.."

"How did you know?"

"Hisokas more flirtatious . He wouldn't ask me to take him to my room. "

"Does he just... show up?"

I could sense the jealousy in his prying. "Yes. He just shows up and takes me like a real man.. but then again.. I never had to compete for hisoka."

"Are you trying to under my skin."

"No.. I'm not trying to get under you at all." I crossed my arms and faced away from him " where's the real Hisoka?"

"Attending other matters. I didn't ask for specifics. He needed a favor and I was free. That's all"

"Great. Now that you're here and my client isn't I have more of a reason to leave."

"She's lying" he blurted "I haven't called her. I've been impersonating Hisoka for the past hour. I couldn't have."

" and what about 2 hours ago?"

He pulls his phone from his pocket and shows me his call log. "For the last three days my outgoing calls had only been to you and my father. My incoming calls are all machi and clients. All of hers had been going unanswered"

"I didn't take machi as the clingy type" I mumbled.

"She's not. She's only acting this way because she hates you and it gets under your skin. Truth be told she doesn't care about me at all. That's not what our arrangement was about."

"Why does it matter illumi? Your not ready. Let's be honest. I pushed you into taking me seriously because I started to feel something for you after seeing you again."

"Maybe but im not voiding our arrangement either."

"You can marry my sis-"

"I'll kill you." He said plainly. "Backing out of the agreement will cause your death. I will kill you. After the auction we will head back home and prepare the wedding."

"No can do lumi." I smiled. I was two steps ahead "after the auction I'm placed on Killua duty. He's been asking Milluki about greed island. I'm going there and waiting for him."

"Who approves this?"

"Zeno. And unless you have a memory card.. which I already obtained... you can't go... I'm officially free of you for a good year give or take.. have fun with Hisoka." I waved laughing. "See you when I see you"
