New Life : A Second Chance

Kyle blinked at the question and paused, his hand still on her shoulder.

"Actually, no, but since you asked …" Kyle grinned as he climbed on top of her, kissing her while flinging off the blanket that her naked form was under.

An hour later, Sayuri was busy drawing. She was sitting at the table next to Kyle, dressed in his T-shirt that reached mid-thigh. 

Kyle, who was beside her, was reading the reports on the activities that Donnie was doing.

"You know, you really should get some sleep," Sayuri admonished him, without looking up from her drawing.

"Yeah, I will, I will," Kyle said, "Later …"

He quickly dodged to one side, and Sayuri's hand whizzed by, missing his head by inches.

"If you don't go to sleep now, I won't draw this," Sayuri said, showing what she had done so far.

Kyle's eyes went wide upon seeing it, "That's it! That's exactly it!"

It was still just an outline, but even then, the depiction was accurate.

"Sleep," Sayuri stressed, pointing at the bed, "The reports can wait."

"I'll go to sleep when you do," Kyle compromised.

Sayuri sighed, "Fine. I'll take another 30 minutes on this. It doesn't have to be a realistic sketch, so long as they can visualize it properly."

"Deal," Kyle answered.

"And I am talking about sleep, okay," Sayuri said to him, staring at him, "Not sex."

Kyle pursed his lips and scratched his head, "Okayyyy …"

Sayuri's eyes narrowed, saying with her voice dangerously low, "Kyle …"

He put up both of his hands in surrender, "I promise! Just sleep!"

Sayuri nodded, satisfied and continued drawing.

Kyle faced the reports again, though he wasn't really able to concentrate as he rubbed the back of his head. 

He was getting to be bad. Really, really bad.

It was as if a switch had been flipped and the dam opened, releasing the huge amount of water that it had been storing for years. It gushed out, unstoppable and it didn't seem to end.

In his case, it was sex.

He got turned on by Sayuri so fast and so easily that he found himself seemingly in a constant state of arousal each time they were alone together.

Didn't help that she was just as beastly as he was.

The rare times he held himself back, she was the one that jumped on him.

He found that the sexual freedom he shared with Sayuri right now was so exhilarating that it boggled the mind. 

In his previous life, he had always been plagued with feelings of inadequacy due to his insecurities over his body, his lack of skills and worse, his desire for more. So each sexual experience wasn't truly fulfilling.

In this life, though, everything was perfect.

He found that Sayuri was always up to it, more than adventurous in trying anything and of course, Kyle had absolute confidence in his own physique. He had no guilt or worries about whether he was not good enough or if he was too aggressive.

Or too horny.

He idly wondered how he was ever going to find a bed partner as perfect as Sayuri. Just thinking about the future where she would fall in love with someone else, or get interested in someone else and leave him …

Kyle subconsciously gripped the mouse a bit tighter as he continued working.

He shook his head.

He was thinking too much.

Time to focus on work. 

Now that they knew who the mastermind was, they also needed to weed out all the bad apples in the department. Kyle wanted to do it in one shot, kind of like how 'John Wick and Zenith' eliminated the High Table.

The movie may have been fictitious, but if the idea was plausible, why not?

If he couldn't get all of them, he was definitely going to get the Head of the snake, and that Donnie Yang.

Big Bro Nic was helping with digging up information about Syed Xavier and Donnie while Father and Sayuri's grandfather, Haruto, were looking into the possibility of Donnie Yang being from the family.

Since Kyle suspected that he was actually in disguise and not the real Donnie Yang, it meant that the investigation in that part was going to be harder, and take longer. 

Is a ninja family involved and if so, why?

Kyle was also worried if this matter would affect Father adversely. 

After all, Father's biological son had died due to them being betrayed by the people he had served. In the olden days, this never would have happened for the people the ninjas served were honourable. 

Since then, Father had abandoned such old ideas and wanted to live in obscurity and in peace, never to get involved in matters of the world anymore. 

Until Kyle pulled him out, that is. Even then, Father did not 'return' and merely imparted his skills.

Kyle just found it hard to believe that any ninja family would serve such a 'leader'.

Or … were they?

Too many things unknown, too many possibilities.

Working in the dark like this made Kyle nervous.

Kyle would also need to be cautious around him and wouldn't be able to use the normal methods to get information on the sly. Luckily, he had Sayuri with him to brainstorm about it.

He looked at his watch. He had another 15 minutes before Sayuri would force him to sleep so he quickly started formulating some plans about Donnie.

Xavier would just have to wait.

Later, as they lay in bed, Sayuri watched the sleeping form of Kyle. She wrapped her arm around his waist and placed her head on his shoulder.

Kyle was a wonderful partner and was so perfect. It was so easy to forget that this was just a dream as one day, he could leave.

Sayuri hugged him tighter and kissed his naked chest lightly.

This dream was so beautiful, she didn't want to wake up.
