Who did he think he was?

He was betrothed to Akiko Yamagata, for heaven's sake!

Midori's cheeks burned with both rage and embarrassment. She had to avoid Kiyoshi Matsumoto at all costs, lest the demons possessed him and he behaved unreasonably again.

"Midori-san!"

"Midori-san, are you alright? Did he do anything to you and Ame-chan?"

Ryouichi and Akiyama came rushing toward her as soon as she left Kiyoshi's house.

"I am fine," she said. "Ame is also fine."

"I demanded entrance, but a group of bodyguards stopped me," Ryouichi explained, his anger was palpable. "I had to seek Akiyama-san's help to enter his house forcefully..."

"What's that on your neck?" Akiyama asked without thinking.

Self-conscious, Midori tugged her lapels tighter, trying in vain to mask the crimson kiss mark Kiyoshi had left on her neck. Understanding dawned on both men, not necessarily acceptance.
