11 Who is he?

Kahoru and Takahiro had just finished shopping and made their way back to the V.I.P parking lot. They were about to go to a restaurant to eat dinner.

As Tanaka drove through the night, there was a peaceful atmosphere in the car. The big boss worked on his laptop and the second boss watching the scenery through the window.

Although Kahoru was a classmate back in high school, she was a completely different person now. It made Tanaka feel like he was in a different world.

They soon turned up at A traditional Japanese restaurant, Yashihodou. It was just outside of Tokyo. The building was a traditional style and as they walked in, it felt like they were in Edo.

The waitress led them to a private room and Tanaka stayed downstairs to eat. The couple settled themselves in and ordered a small hotpot and green tea. Kahoru worked up the courage to speak to her husband. "Takahiro."

"Yes?"

"Thank you for today."

"Mm."

"In the future, please don't dry out your wallet. I didn't expect you to buy so many things."

"It's nothing."

"Nothing?"

As they spoke the hotpot had been set and there was food scattered across the table. They started dining in.

"What do you mean it's nothing? I'd be in debt by now. Just how rich are you?"

"Why don't you guess."

"Uh..." Kahoru paused. She wasn't thinking about anything. She was shocked at him for spending almost hundreds of thousands of dollars on her in just a day.

"Who are you?"

"That is for you to figure out."

"Eh?" Kahoru placed a beef slice in her mouth and thought as she chewed.

"I am the CEO of Yu Entertainment and King's Crown resort."

Kahoru almost choked on her food. How could this twenty-eight year old man own two companies? And these two weren't just normal businesses, Yu entertainment was the biggest industry in all of Japan.

He was the king of the entertainment industry, investing in on smaller companies. And King's Crown resort?

It was first ranked on worlds best Resort two years in a row. It was where the richest people and celebrities would stay because security levels were very high.

Normal civilians also stayed there because the rooms were also affordable. There were many activities and the beach was right next door.

He was the CEO of the best companies and was practically the king of Japan. He was the low profile CEO Ichinomiya Takahiro, a mystery man.

Normal Civilians have not seen his face, neither have Journalists. When his father passed the role of CEO down to Takahiro, it was without the media.

The companies invested about 25.6 billion a year. Which was totalled around 50 billion. He was the youngest billionaire.

How did Kahoru end up with him? Although she now knew why how much he spent on her was nothing to him. It was practically pocket money.

"Oi Pouty." She felt a finger tap her shoulder and jumped.

"S-sorry... your m-majesty."

"Your majesty? Pfft." Takahiro paused and chuckled.

"If I am your king, then you are my queen."

Did he just flirt? Kahoru stuffed more food into her mouth as she was getting more flustered as he watched her eat.

"Y-you should eat! The food is g-getting cold."

"But this is a hot pot."

"Uhh..."

"You're pretty funny."

"Ah..."

Kahoru had lost her words. All she could do was eat.

"The food is good." Takahiro said.

"Do you eat out often?"

"Yeh. I don't have time to cook."

"I see."

As they chattered, the couple were finally finished with their meal. They were ready to head home. Tanaka was waiting for them by the car.

The drive was normally what they did. A comfortable silence, while Takahiro was on his laptop.

When they arrived, Kahoru went to take a bath first. Today was exhausting and she was going to sleep earlier than usual. After she got out, She went to look for Takahiro. She found him in the study working.

"Takahiro, the bath is ready."

"I'll take a bath later."

"Okay."

Kahoru headed to bed. She lay under the unfamiliar ceiling and thought. It felt weird living with a man who was also suddenly her new husband. She knew she had to get used to life this way.

She sighed. "I still can't believe I got married."

She laid in her bed until she fell asleep.

...

Takahiro had just finished part of his work and stretched. His gaze was cold and there was a tense atmosphere in the room. He walked out and upstairs into the bedroom.

He opened the door and walked up to Kahoru. She was fast asleep and looked very peaceful. Takahiro's tense face relaxed and gently patted Kahoru's head.

He then walked into to the bathroom to take a bath. The bathroom smelt like shampoo as kahoru had just taken a bath. Her scent had lingered.

He also wondered. "I'm married now huh?" He lightly chuckled to himself. He wasn't in love, but his new wife was certainly intriguing. She was cute and was quite entertaining.

After his bath, Takahiro climbed onto the other side of the bed. The bed felt very warm as the figure next to him slept soundly. He could get used to this. His sleepless nights were about to change for the better.

Little did the couple know that their lives will change rapidly.
