Kenji Sakazaki.

Aurora was at Takashi's apartment.

She stood in front of a mirror, looking at herself.

She was wearing an oversized t-shirt over underwear.

Looking at herself in the mirror, Aurora tried to recall how did she end up in Takashi's room wearing nothing but pink underwear and a blue oversized t-shirt.

The t-shirt probably belongs to Takashi since the size matches his figure.

Recalling the events of yesterday night, Aurora blushed in embarrassment.

Yesterday, Aurora handled some matters regarding Nameless' future debut in the Abyss world.

While Zulkernyn and Ian are working hard for Nameless' present.

Aurora is working for the future of Nameless.

With the connections, she gathered by working with her mother.

Aurora is compiling information about a low tier organisation.

She plans to use that organisation as a starting point of Nameless, in the Abyss world.

She was stressing herself with loads of work and ever since Avalon had become the Blood Patriarch's Blood Candidate, the branch families and the other Blood Candidates have started to pestering her every other day.

The stress was too much for Aurora, so she took a day off and went to drink to dull her mind away.

Aurora remembered that she met Takashi at a club.

They had fun and drank until she threw up on Takashi.

"Aah gaaaahd!" Aurora groaned remembering the scene of her throwing up on Takashi.

Aurora blushed in shame, placing her hands on both her cheeks.

Then she remembered Takashi taking her to his home.

Looking at what she was wearing, Aurora remembered that Takashi called a female bodyguard to help her changed into what she was wearing.

Then a certain memory came to her mind.

A kiss!

She remembers kissing Takashi.

Devouring his lips, nibbling on them, biting them!

At first, he stood there in shock. It was all one-sided for a few seconds before he responded to her by kissing her back.

Aurora widened her eyes and opened her mouth in shock, remembering the kiss!

She couldn't believe what she did.

Usually, even after drinking a lot, she still retains enough senses to not be an idiotic fool.

"Must be the stress, dammit!!!" Aurora muttered out loud, still processing that scene and trying to remember more of what happened last night.

She remembered what happened after Takashi kissed her.

He held himself back and broke off the kiss soon.

Takashi told her to rest and left her in the room.

That's it.

That's the last thing she remembered before passing out on the bed.

Aurora clicked her tongue.

"Tsk, I wouldn't have minded even if you have taken advantage of me at that state, Kazzie." Aurora muttered feeling a bit down by Takashi's actions after the kiss.

Stretching for a couple of minutes, Aurora went to the bathroom to freshen up.

~~~

Aurora arrived at the kitchen and saw Takashi making breakfast.

Watching the handsome man wearing an apron and cooking food like a house-husband, Aurora was in a daze!

"I'll be honest, I kind of like what I'm seeing." Aurora said startling Takashi who almost dropped the spatula on his hand.

Turning around, Takashi was stunned seeing Aurora.

"Then I'll be honest with you as well, I also like the view that I'm seeing." Takashi said seeing Aurora wearing just a t-shirt that belongs to him and the underwear that he bought in the middle of the night, yesterday.

"Didn't I left you some clothes, why aren't you wearing them?" Takashi asked.

Takashi had left some clothes for Aurora in the room.

The clothes belong to Lucretia.

Since Aurora's clothes were dirty and in the middle of the night, only an underwear shop was open for weird reasons. So Takashi asked for Lucretia's clothes for Aurora.

Scratching the back of her head, Aurora gave a wry smile to him.

"They are small for me..."

"Really? I thought I picked the right sizes. Even among Lucretia's clothes, they were the biggest ones I picked." Takashi replied in confusion.

"..." Aurora.

Aurora gave Takashi a look and rolled her eyes at him.

"Does these look small to you? Also, does my ass looks that skinny to you?" Aurora asked cupping one of her breast and buttock.

This time, Takashi really did drop the spatula on his hands hearing Aurora and watching her cup her breast and buttock.

*cling linggggg*

"..." Takashi.

Aurora shook her head before she said to Takashi.

"For future reference, I'm a 32D and you need to get it a size bigger than what you have given me."

Takashi was embarrassed, he didn't say anything.

Crouching down and picking up the spatula, he cleaned the spatula before turning back to the stove to cook their breakfast.

Aurora giggled seeing Takashi feeling embarrassed to speechless.

Leaning at the door, Aurora asked something about last night to Takashi.

"You're too gentlemanly, you know that, Kaz? Even if I was drunk, my body was honest. You could have taken me, you know. To be honest with you, I want you!"

Takashi stiffened up hearing Aurora.

A few moments later, Takashi spoke up.

"I don't want your body, I want your heart, Rory."

"..." Aurora.

Taking a deep breath, Aurora replied.

"I'm warning you, I'll break your heart, Kaz...And I don't have one."

"Then I will continue being persistent and make you fall in love with me."

"I don't think that's possible ever. Those emotions of love? I buried them away. I don't need them. It makes me feel weak and vulnerable! I'm better off without them."

Takashi turned off the stove.

He turned to Aurora and walked over to her.

Standing before Aurora, he stretched out his arm over her head and leaned closer to her.

They were just inches away from each other, Aurora could feel his hot breath on her face.

"I'm not going to stop pursuing you! I will give my heart to you and let you feel loved. That look in your eyes that you hide behind the veil of facades, I will make that loneliness disappear!"

"Aurora Christina Blood, I love you!"

Aurora didn't reply to him.

She only stared at Takashi's eyes for a brief moment before turning away from him.

Suddenly both Takashi and Aurora heard a squeal!

"Kyaaaaaaaa!!!!"

Both Aurora and Takashi were startled by that high pitched squeal.

Turning to the voice, both of them saw a young teen looking at the two of them.

Pointing at them, he was trying to say something but only inaudible sounds came out of his mouth.

"Kenji, don't shout like that!" Takashi sighed before reprimanding his younger brother for shouting.

"B-B-But Aniki!!! Since when did you get yourself a girlfriend!!!" Kenji shouted again pointing at Aurora.

Aurora laughed hearing Kenji.

She observed the young teen from head to toe.

Kenji has snow-white hair, his bangs grow just past his grey eyes and the rest is tied in a low ponytail that ends above his shoulders.

He was wearing a green and black neckband and a headphone in his head.

His clothing consists of a black and green, long-sleeved shirt that he was wearing over a longer black one and light green flap trousers.

"KENJI!" Takashi narrowed his eyes and called out to Kenji in a stern tone.

Kenji flinched and shut his mouth.

"Haha, Aniki... I was just asking and got excited seeing you kabedon this Onee-san. She is pretty and beautiful, your awesome Aniki!" Kenji thumbs up Takashi before turning to Aurora.

"Hello, sister-in-law! I'm Kenji, your brother-in-law. You must love me and pamper me! Aniki doesn't do that too often so you're the best substitute for him. What's your name, Sis-in-law?"

Hearing Kenji, Aurora laughed.

Kenji looked like a cute adorable puppy full of innocence and liveliness.

"Aurora." She replied to Kenji.

"Aurora! Nice name, nice name. Do you know that there's a goddess named, Aurora? Aurora was the Roman goddess of the dawn. The Greeks called her Eos. She was the daughter of the Titans Hyperion and Theia and the sister of Helios the sun god and Selene the moon goddess." Kenji chattered-on on his own.

Aurora looked at Takashi, but he only shrugged before going back to make breakfast for everyone.

Aurora sighed and accompanied Kenji until breakfast.
