A/N: This came out ages ago on my Tumblr and Wattpad didn't publish it (?), I'm so sorry for the long wait, I really want to continue writing this series and now, with more time, I can! Also, please remember to stay safe, healthy and indoors! <3

"How is the job going?" he smirked.

"Stop evading the question." (Y/N) glared coldly at him.

"Just seeing how you're doing, I have to investigate the mole after all." he purred, "and I thought, what better way of doing that than by going directly to the most suspicious person in the form."

Her heart was beating fast now,  but her poker game face was strong,  thanks to the extra training she put herself through with Mitsuhide.

If she was going to fiddle with power play, she'll have to treat it like these so-called 'big shot' douchebags were: like a game.
An amused smirk appeared on her face, "have fun getting sacked, it will be much more pleasant without your existence polluting the air."

His expression darkened, his mocking manner dissipated in an instant.

"You know I'll skin whoever is feeding information to an external source, and don't doubt for a second I won't bring you down as well."

The woman wasn't going to let him control her behaviour like he used to, she's going to be fighting back. It helped a lot with her confidence that the Oda Forces secret headquarters was right there.

Sighing, she expressed "Rey already said I'm the best agent, he'd never believe the stupid lies you tell him, he knows you want to be on top because it does wonders to your ego."
Jayden stared silently at her.
"Unlike some," her eyes eyed him suggestively, "I have a job I can succeed, so bye."

The man watched as she skipped to her car, effortlessly pulling out of the parking lot and driving away, ignoring his very being.

When he faced the building again, his gazed locked with someone at the very top at the building, the shadow didn't show the face but he could tell whoever was watching him was doing so with narrowed slits.

Was it the Devil King himself?

The curtain blocked the mysterious figure as soon as he questioned it mentally.

Strange.

"Him, abbot?" a short man voiced.

"Yes, he's perfect. Keep an eye on him, we'll make our move."

"Oh my gosh, Kenshin, what are you doing here?" her stomach churned, that definitely scared her.

"Just wanted to see how you were doing." whilst the thought was very, his facial expression and heterochromia eyes stated differently.

"Are you sure you're okay?" her eyebrows furrowed.

"You are too sweet to worry about my wellbeing." he strode a few steps closer to her, cupping her chin in between his fingertips. Her cheeks flushed instantly.
