Chapter 3

Two mornings later

Kagome was sitting at her desk as she was looking at different formulas and spreadsheets. She then got a notification on her phone that Cindy sent her an email from her personal email.

Hey Kagome

I'm not sure who to trust. I ran into somethings with CheapAss and his underhand deals. I think they think I know too much. I'm not sure what I know but it must be big. I'll send you what I got and figure it out for me. I don't think I'll be able to.

Attachments 3

Kagome received sixteen more emails with attachments. She didn't read it at work.

The ones she saw were the ones she knew because she already had a copy on her USB drive she kept with her.

She looked around and found something to make it seem she had a purpose to visit the boss' secretary.

Making up to the top floor, Kagome quickly walked to Cindy's desk but Cindy wasn't there. Kikyo was there filing her nails.

Kagome rolled her eyes and walked to the desk.

"Kikyo? Where's Cindy?" Kagome asked and kept an ear out for any faint screams of an outcry for help.

She heard none but heard Kikyo pop her gum in frustration.

"Cindy quit this morning so I'm filling in for her. Got a problem with that or something?" Kikyo asked with a lot of attitude in her tone.

Kagome took a deep breath and smiled.

" No I don't. Was Cindy able to get her things?" Kagome asked sweetly.

"No the bitch didn't because I wouldn't allow her to get her things and "accidentally" walk off with company secrets and classified information," Inuyasha said with his pants unzipped and belt a bit loose.

"I don't mind going through it," Kagome offered ever so sweetly.

Inuyasha raised his eyebrow and looked at Kikyo that was licking her lips as if she was starved for his cock.

"Fine but before you go I need to check to see what you are taking from this building. In fact come and go through it in my office," Inuyasha said and zipped his pants and buckled his belt back on correctly.

Kikyo was visibly disappointed and went back to filing her nails.

"Kikyo I still need my coffee and agenda for the rest of the day. Sorry but you just can't look cute and everything gets done. That's why I pay you...to work," Inuyasha said and went in the office with Kagome toting the heavy white box behind him.

Inside Inuyasha's Office

Kagome walked with a bit of a struggle with the white box. She tried not to grunt but she was close to it.

"You can work there," Inuyasha pointed to a corner that was across the room from his desk.

He didn't turn towards her but continued to walk towards his untidy desk.

Kagome gently dropped the box and stretched. She looked around for a lamp because the corner was a bit dark. She found a light switch and turned it on.

She sat on her knees and took everything out of Cindy's personal belongings box.

"Is there anything specific that you want to keep ?" Kagome asked sweetly turning towards her boss.

He was reading a document from a red folder in his hands with his chair leaned back and feet on the desk crossed at the ankles.

"Hmm? Anything that looks important with client information and office supplies. They ain't cheap you know. I guess employee information too," Inuyasha added as an afterthought.

Kagome shook her head and rolled her eyes when she knew Inuyasha wasn't looking at her.

Inuyasha placed a hand on the side of his head to seem that he was thinking but he was checking Kagome out. He strategically placed mirrors in his office to check out the women that come inside of his office.

He was able to see Kagome's ass bend over and simultaneously her cleavage from the mirror that was right above her.

He remembered hiring Kagome as a last minute decision. She has made him lots of money but has given him even more headaches.

Kagome was sorting the items into different categories around her. She was starting to get hot by sitting on her knees with her cardigan on. She felt that Inuyasha's office was like an incinerator. She looked back at him he was cool like a cucumber. She pulled up her hair and took her jacket off. She ran across some papers that was tucked in various books and folders. They were photocopies of receipts and almost all had Doesn't add up written in red ink in Cindy's handwriting.

Kagome placed those papers in the trash pile that was going to go in her purse when she got back to her desk.

She was about to dump out a glass jar full of paperclips because she thought she saw something inside that didn't belong. She looked behind her with her eyes only and then looked up.

'That perv!' Kagome thought and put the paperclips in the pile to go to the supply closet.

More receipts, an X out contract and various post it notes from other employees went to the real trash pile.

Kagome finished and got up from her spot. She walked to Inuyasha to show him what she was taking to Cindy.

He looked through it quickly and waved her off.

"Hey Kibble! Tell Kikyo to get her ass in here,"he said without looking at her.

Kagome raised a eyebrow and wanted to flick him the bird but decided not to since he would see it or it would be recorded. She remembered seeing a photocopy receipt for security camera installation and in Cindy's handwriting the word creep written in bold letters.

Kagome made it to the elevator after telling Kikyo that Inuyasha wanted her.

She went to the office supply closet and placed Cindy's supplies back other than the jar of paperclips.

She went to her desk after checking behind her and made sure no one was watching her.

Kagome took a deep breath and almost ran into Koga who was coming from the copier with black ink dust on his face and shirt.

"Whoa! Sorry," Kagome said and adjusted her grip on the box.

"No it's my fault. Damn copier," Koga grumbled and tried to get the black toner off his shirt.

"The copier won then?" Kagome asked sympathetically.

"Nope! Got the report to print. Took thirty minutes and a lot of cussing but I'm taking the report to Cheap Ass. Do you need me to carry that box for you?" Koga asked reaching for the box.

"Oh thanks but I'm good it's really not that heavy. But you should hurry it's almost time for the follow up presentation," Kagome said and Koga checked his wristwatch and quickly left.

Kagome exhaled and continued to walk to her desk.

When she got to her desk her real boyfriend, Hojo, was there with a plastic white bag in his hand.

"Hey babe," Hojo said and grabbed the box from her.

"Thanks. What brings you here? I thought you had an interview or something?" Kagome asked and sat down.

"Yea they pushed it to three. So I thought I would buy you breakfast or lunch, uhm, brunch," Hojo said finally getting the right word.

"Oh thank you. Creamy Alfredo my favorite," Kagome winced at the smell when she opened and closed the lid quickly.

"Well I better be off. Wish me luck," Hojo said quickly and left.

Kagome waved him off hoping she wouldn't throw up.

Koga came by her desk and opened the container.

He grimaced and threw the food away.

"I thought you hated Alfredo sauce noodles. That was some funky food. Who's trying to kill you?" Koga asked and sat on the corner of her desk.

"My soon to be ex-boyfriend. Hojo brought that to me. He came and stayed for exactly three minutes and left," Kagome said and pushed the white box to the back. She took out the glass jar and poured out the contents.

"Who's that?" Koga asked.

"Cindy's," Kagome said as she moved the paper lips out of the way.

"Why do you have her USB for? I thought she got fired. I did hear that she was caught by her boyfriend sleeping with the CheapAss. But I never got the vibe she was digging him like that especially knowing what he does to the women he sleeps with," Koga said and crossed his arms.

"I wouldn't believe everything you hear either here. It's like a gossip mill around here. Yes! Found it," Kagome said and held the small USB up so Koga could see it.

"What do you think is on it?" Koga asked mildly curious.

"I'm not sure. Meet at my house later today? I don't want this on my work computer," Kagome said and placed it in her wallet.

"Oh I finally get invited to your house. The scandal that could occur," Koga said and leaned over for Kagome to kiss him.

"It's only a scandal if there's something sinister going on and that we get caught. What we have is a convenient fling. Your fiancée or whatever is out of town most of the time and my ...whatever is being whatever. Don't let this thing we have between us cloud your judgement. I'm just having fun you know. Besides it seems I'm horrible in relationships," Kagome said and kissed Koga on his nose.

Koga rolled his eyes and grabbed Kagome from her chair.

"Then this shouldn't make you wet," Koga whispered and kissed her and grabbed her ass. He then moved to her neck and sucked hard on it almost leaving a bruise.

He blew his breath on the wet bruise making Kagome cry out softly.

"Yeah, I'm just having fun too. See you tonight," Koga said and left knowing he had Kagome wanting more.

"Bastard," Kagome breathed hard trying to collect her thoughts.

"Are you okay," a man's voice was heard behind her. She quickly straightened her appearance and turned around.

"Yes, I'm fine. What's wrong?" Kagome asked the man.

"Mr. Takahashi need to speak with you. It's urgent," the man said.

"Okay I'll be up there," Kagome said sitting down and grabbing her water bottle.

"I'm to escort you there per his orders," the man said.

"Okay. Let me call Ko," Kagome began but the man hung up the phone.

"He just wants you," the man said and placed his arms behind his back and waiting.

Kagome rolled her eyes and got her notebook and pen just in case.

She followed the mysterious man up the stairs trying to place him somewhere inside the company but couldn't.

Kagome made it back up to the floor where Inuyasha had his office. Kagome looked around and noticed that Kikyo wasn't there anymore which didn't surprise her. The mysterious man opened the door and motioned for Kagome to go through. Inuyasha was standing with his back towards the door.

He turned when he heard his new personal assistant Jinegi call him.

Inuyasha smirked and slowly walked towards Kagome.

"She'll do. Kagome just don't say anything. Remember to smile," Inuyasha said and grabbed Kagome's hand. He slipped a golden band on her left ring finger.

Jinegi opened the oak door and four men walked in.

"Inuyasha such a pleasant sight to see. I see that you finally got a woman and a real looker too. Dumped that gold digging snitch Kikyo. Is she swimming with the sharks. Hopefully," the burly man in the middle said and laughed.

"Yeah she's a real keeper. Right honey, can't keep my hands off of her," Inuyasha said and spun Kagome into his chest.

"Hmm, now let's get down to business where's that bitch secretary Cindi? She needs to die," the man said and smirked but it didn't sit right with Kagome at all.

'What in the entire hell is going on,' Kagome thought and stepped closer to Inuyasha if that was even possible.

It's been hectic at work especially with new kids coming and going. Time just been moving! It also doesn't help that I had a major writer's block and just couldn't get in the groove. I hope that more updates are posted and not these long ones. I hope that you enjoyed!

Thank you
