Kiyako swiped some lipstick on her lips
She glanced at the mirror
A gloved hand wrapped around her middle and draped his head on her shoulder
“Mm, Kai”
She giggled as he pressed kisses to her neck
“Kai! Stop! We’re going be late!”
He ignored her
She gently batted his head away
Kai looked displeased but nonetheless obliged
He watched as his lovely wife slipped on her opera gloves and stood up from her vanity
She slipped a vial into a hidden pocket and grabbed her clutch
“Ready to go?”
He nodded and offred her the crook of his arm
She took it and they stepped into a waiting car
The ride was silent as they drove to the venue
When they arrived, they were escorted to an elegant high ceiling room
They said hello before Kiyako slipped away to get some drinks
She took 3 flutes of champagne and discreetly added the contents of the vial to 3 of them and some water to 1
She smiled and gave one of them to an rival and the other to her husband
Kiyako chatted with her mob friends when she heard a thump beside her
She pretended to look shocked and proceeded to scream
“HELP!”
She quickly disposed of her glass on the nearby table and burst into hysterics
Several people rushed to her husband before she heard of a similar thump nearby
A friend of her led her to the host who proceeded to ask her what happened
“I-I fo-found some glasses in-in the kitchen a-and I-I gave on-one to Kai a-and the-the other to - a-as well as t-taking one myself”
The host looked at her confused
“How were you not poisoned?”
“I-I hadn't drunk mine yet, I was busy talking t-to my friends”
She handed him her glass
He nodded his thanks
Hari helped load Kai into the car
They drove home in silence
Later Kai woke up
“I trust it went well?”
Kiyako smiled and stroked his head
“It did, our target is dead and no one suspects us. I overheard from his brother that they suspected that the wine was fermented incorrectly. Plus we also got some pity points”
He smiled softly and pulled her into a kiss
“I am so happy that I have a clever and a such a sly wife”
She pouted
“It’s not my fault that people think I am weak”
“It isn't but it is something I admire, how you can act like a scared prey at one moment before revealing you were the predator the entire time”
Kiyako smiled softly and pulled him into a kiss
