Chapter 10 - Maggot

The weather today was very calm, there were chattering of birds in the sky and trees. As usual, Haruki would practice using sword in dojo; he built the dojo inside Eternal Hotel. He slashed some techniques beautifully. He took a deep breath, stopping from practice and put the sword back in its place. After he's done, he sat on the tatami. He's in deep thought. Today is the day, the ceremony for him; which he would be the leader of Homura. The ceremony was held here, at his own hotel. There's still some few hours before the ceremony begins. So, Haruki took his time to calm himself in dojo. Basically he's just wanted the ceremony finished quickly as he didn't like the fact that he needs to meet his father during the ceremony. Shinoda Tetsuya; the 6th leader of Homura yakuza group right now; a very fearful and cruel person. He basically didn't care about anything except himself. He's the type that always looked down to other people. All he wants is people followed his orders. He will do what he wanted and he didn't mind making Haruki suffered to satisfy his heart. Haruki gritted his teeth. He never acknowledged Shinoda Tetsuya as his father since his father used to abandon him and his mother before. The reason was his mother is not legally married to his father because she was a stripper he played around before and yes, he was Tetsuya's illegitimate son. The reason why his father accept him now because his stepmother which is the real wife for his father cannot get pregnant at all. Haruki felt his fate was so ironic as he has to obey his father when he didn't even want to.

"Ah… I wish I could kill him now." Haruki mumbled.

He took his sword back and went to another door in the dojo. He opened the decoration mask at the door, and there's a hole in there. Haruki puts the beginning of the sword in the hole and spun his sword. The door was opened, he walked into the room and stopped at the black altar. He sat down and the silver ash haired man took a black box from there. 

He opened the box, and it was some blank old paper, the brush, black ink and knife. He then wrote something on that paper. Then he cut a little bit of his finger's skin; a drop of blood fell on the paper. 

"I will dance on your palm, Shinoda Tetsuya. You should feel happy that I gave you some attention." He mumbled alone and make an evil smile as if he was possessed. He put the things back in the box and hide it inside the altar.

He then noticed someone came to the dojo. This smell, he knew who's coming anyway.

"I thought I have a few more hours before the ceremony begins, Eris." Haruki looked behind. He didn't like being disturbed when he's alone, especially when he's in this state. Eris closed the door, then sitting in front of Haruki. She looked at her young master.

"Relax, this is not about your father. There's some rats inside this hotel, ops I mean that fake Asuka and the man who pretended to be a woman." 

Haruki frowned, "you said Yuu was here?"

"Uhu, I guess those two pretending to be the staff to see the ceremony. So, what should I do about them? Kill them?"

"I will kill you first before you do that. Let them be, because eventually Yuu will know about this later. Since it's the ceremony day for me, so it's okay if they knew about it. After all, they need to know who's the new heir here." 

 "As you wish." Eris said. "Anyway after the ceremony, do you want to carry out that plan? Since he's here already."

"Absolutely.  It's more convenient that way. Wait till my father's gone."

"Yes, young master."

....

"I know I said I wanted to know about Haruki, but why the fuck I need to wore this ugly uniform?" Lucian complained at Haruka.

"Because this is the only way. You want to see the ceremony yourself."

"But I didn't ask to wear this."

"Stop complaining and just do it, boss." Those two then continue to pretend as hotel staff. They disguised as waitress. The members of Homura already there including Haruki who looked so serious. Haruki looked towards Lucian. Lucian looked at the other side. Haruki wanted to smile to Lucian but he can't smile when his father in front of him. The ceremony began as the mc started to speak. Then a third person poured glasses of sake for the current oyabun and his new oyabun boss. Haruki and his father drank some sake from their own glasses. Then, they exchange glasses and drink some of each other's sake. Haruki drank his fill while the initiate merely sip. 

"I hope you didn't mess up Haruki. You're maybe a new oyabun but I still held the power. I will keep watching you. So don't try to do something funny behind my back."

"Yes father."

Wow he's sure hard on his own son, Lucian thought. After the ceremony is done, the yakuza left the hotel. After everybody was gone, Haruki went to Lucian. Haruka wasn't there. 

"I didn't know I hired you as my new staff." Haruki smiled. Lucian looked at him with disgusting looks.

"Hahha funny AF. Now this explained why you have a lot of money"

"Well since you like money, so this is needed."

"Since when you've done this dirty work?"

Haruki laughed a bit, "since when you care about me?" 

Lucian's face was red when he heard that. He snapped his fingers; reminded Haruki not to think highly of himself.

"Never once I care about you. Excuse me." Lucian ran away from Haruki. He went to the other corner of the hotel, looking for Haruka. He tried to call his secretary but no answer.

"Where's she goes?" Lucian tried to call again but suddenly someone grabbed his arm and pulling him inside the room. He didn't manage to do anything. He was slammed on the bed. The next thing he knew, there's an unknown man in front of him with super horny face. 

"Ah, at last you arrived here. I was waiting for so long you know. Now let's have sex." Before he can do anything, Lucian slapped the guy face with angry looks. 

"Don't you dare. Get off from me! I didn't even know you. I'm gonna kill you if you tried."

That man laughed when he heard that. "Kill me? You're so funny. I did asked the staff to send the girl to me. But here a very noisy woman they dare to send to me. Who you think you're speaking with?" That man immediately pressed his body on Lucian and grabbed his long hair. He cannot fight back as that man too strong. He tried to resist but he can't. That man then slapped Lucian. He tear down Lucian's clothes, revealing the body. That guy became more and more excited.

"Now, you can't run away. So shut up now and let me fuck you for real."

Lucian was shivered when he heard. He was scared and he didn't know what he should do.

He remembered this feeling.

He hate it to death.

The unknown feeling inside his heart growing rapidly causing him to scream and without he even noticed he called for Haruki.

Immediately, a punch hit on that man's face. That man flew and hit his body on the floor. Haruki was there. He looked so angry and even angrier when he saw Lucian was crying. He walked towards to that guy and kicked him with all his might. He kicked them repeatedly until Lucian have to stopped Haruki from killing that man. At the same time, the security arrived, together with Haruka, Eris and Yamasaki. The security immediately caught the guy.

"Take him out NOW!" Haruki shouted. Haruka wanted to cover his boss's. But Haruki stared at him; a sign he should go out too. The security brought the guy out followed by Eris, Yamasaki and Haruka. Haruka felt uneasy but he then went out together as he knew Haruki won't hurt Lucian. Now everybody already gone, leaving Haruki and Lucian alone. The blonde guy still shivered; he didn't say anything as he was traumatized. Haruki sat in front of his ex lover. He then hugged him and whispering the calming words. Lucian immediately cried back. He wrapped his hands around Haruki's neck. 

"It's okay. The bad guy is gone now." He comforted the other. Lucian didn't reply as he just continues to cry until there's no more tears. Haruki just hugged and kissing Lucian until his lover calmed down. Time goes by, he then fell asleep at Haruki's embrace. Haruki puts Lucian carefully on the bed. He covered the body with the blanket, kissing the soft lips then leaving him sleeping in the room. He walked hurriedly to his office. Inside his office, the same guy who's tried to rape Lucian was there. He was surrounded by the security guard there. As Haruki went closer to him, he hits that man. He groaned as he felt the pain being punched.

"I never gave you permission to hit Yuu or to tear down his clothes, right?" Haruki squatted and grabbed the man's hair. That man actually his worker. 

"But, young master… you said to make it more believed… I just followed your order..." He was really scared with Haruki right now. Actually Haruki asked him to scare and attack Lucian.

"I know, but is there a need to do that? I don't think so right. Hey, I know you did a great job but that was too much." He immediately took his revolver and shot at that man's face. The blood splattered out directly pasted on Haruki.

"Stupid people like you just better die than alive." He spitted at the dead body. Suddenly a hand pulled his collar suit.

"What he means you asked him to do it??" Haruka was in shocked and mad state. He couldn't believe what he just heard right now. He happened to hear this when he sneak out at the office. Haruki actually asked his man to attack Lucian. He didn't expect that at all. Haruki pushed Haruka's hand away from him. Yamasaki immediately locked his arms, forcing the other to stay on the ground.

"Yes I did that. I asked this maggot to attack Yuu." He took out his cigarette, light it up and blew the smoke.

"Why did you do that??"

"So that I gained his trust back. He refused to talk or even seeing me. I guess this is the best way and looks like it works. He even kissed me so earnestly few minutes ago." He blew the smoke at Haruka's face.

"You evil… "

"You can say whatever you wanted. I don't care as long Yuu is coming back at me. I wish I can kill you now since I don't like the fact you're always with Yuu. But, well you did promise me you will do whatever I asked you before. So, you cannot turn back now and I still need you. Well I did have another task to you and I hope you shall do it without fail. You should felt lucky I didn't end your life for now, or else your mama would be worried." He deliberately did that to make Haruka cannot refused what he asked.

He didn't expect that. Haruki is willing to do anything to get Lucian back. No matter what circumstances it is..
