“Mr. Tashio there is a person down here saying that they were called to your level for repairs. Do you wish for me to turn her away?”

Puzzled, Sesshoumaru tilted his head at the sound of the head of security. It was the Ookami Ayame’s voice. Absentmindedly towel drying some water droplets that went down the side of his face he answered by holding down the call button on the intercom in the hallway. “Send them up. Don’t forget to bring the key so she can get in here.”

“Ok.”

What he didn’t expect after getting dressed was the scent of a female and the sound of her chatting to the guard. Though, what was most strange was how clean she smelt. None of that horrible perfume and other things. Opening the door before she or the guard could knock he nodded his head at him. Swinging it open a bit farther so they could come in. Noting that she was indeed there for the repairs instead of a fraud. Seeing the tool kit she held. He looked her over briefly and a bit curiously.

The woman smiled at his guard. “Thank you, Shippo.” Pushing her black bangs out of her brown eyes she looked at her ‘client’ with a raised brow. “I’m guessing your Mr. Tashio?”

“I am.” A bit relieved that she wasn‘t all over him, or along those lines, he gestured toward the hole in the wall. He knew he could fix it easily. But, it was convent that the place he got the furniture from also did it to. Leaning back against the bar counter near the door he watched her carefully. “You may go Shippo. I appreciate it.”

Shippo bowed and left. Leaving them alone.
