Chapter 25: Ch 24 - Spoiled
Liam knew that he could not get out if this one so he could only sigh and try to explain.
"That burly guy with muscles, his name is Toji Fushiguro. He is a powerful skilled martial artist. I have actually signed him up as my personal bodyguard."
"Another bodyguard?" Sakura tilted her head and asked. "Why? Do you know how much money Dad had spent to sign the contract with Leader Kong and his team? And now you have brought another one. Not only that but he had a family and you even let him move into our property."
Liam smiled and scratched the side of his face. "But isn't that bungalow unused since we bought it out? Isn't it better to let them use it as it is supposed to?"
"That's not the point!!" Sakura shouted and twisted his ear angrily. "I want to know why you get another bodyguard."
"Because the current ones cannot protect us from supernatural threats." Liam could not take it anymore and said back.
He pointed at her nose and said. "I have told you and Dad that there are threats that cannot be stopped by normal bodyguards. We need people with special abilities for that."
"Supernatural threats? Here you go again..." Sakura was instantly annoyed by him and berated him. "You and your nonsense. How many times do I have to tell you that there are no such t-"
She had yet to finish her sentence before she felt herself turning lighter. Her feet left the ground and under the horrified gazes of Aiko and her daughter, Sakura floated in the air in a stare of zero gravity.
"T-This is..."
"How is this possible?"
Aiko and Akane murmured in disbelief as they rubbed their eyes non-stop to make sure that they were not just seeing hallucinations. The two of them were unable to maintain their composure and almost fell down on their butts in shock.
"AAHHHH-!!"
Other other hand, Sakura who was so confident and energetic a few seconds prior, screamed in fear as she waved her limbs, trying to land on the ground again.
"You are saying something just now. Do you believe me now?" Liam moved his hand and slowly brought her back to the ground before he teased her.
Sakura looked at her brother in horror as she asked. "Just now... did you..."
"Yep. I did that." Liam did not shy away from admitting it. He slowly explained. "I know about supernatural threats because I possess some supernatural abilities... I am sure that there are more people like me out there and I have to protect my family, you guys from them. Toji might seem like a muscle brain but believe me when I say this... even me combined with Leader Kong and others cannot beat that guy. He is super strong with high speed and durability. Toji can kill hundreds of armed men alone."
He stepped forward and patted Sakura's head who was in a daze. "I know I always worry you with my weird actions. But whatever I do, I do that to protect my family."
After saying that, he glanced at Aiko and Akane who had recovered a little from their initial shock, and nodded their heads slowly.
Liam smiled and said to Akane, "Take a rest for today. Maybe you won't be able to go on for the day at school."
"After what you just showed, yeah, we need a good rest." Akane giggled and helped Sakura.
Liam stretched his muscles and climbed the stairs as he had to get ready for the sparring match for tonight.
First, he went into his room and after ten minutes, he moved into his home office.
Liam spent most of his time at home inside his office. It was installed with a supercomputer that was carrying all the latest parts available in the market.
It was perfectly capable of hacking into any organization or server in the entire world.
Because of that, Liam had installed the best security system and only he knew the password for it.
He used it to monitor some important characters or find someone he wanted.
Liam first used to keep updated regarding the assassination mission regarding the Star Plasma Vessel, Riko Amanai.
He was very pleased to find that everything was going on the right track.
If all remained unchanged, then he would have left for the mission alongside Toji.
He wanted to fight either Gojo Satoru or Geto Suguru if possible but it might be determined by his spar with Toji later.
Liam put it aside and decided to check on some company-related stuff. After an hour or so, there was a knock on Liam's office.
Knock Knock
Liam tapped a few keywords on the keyboard and a small screen appeared on the monitor that gave the live feed of the camera installed outside the door.
He saw Sakura waving her hand at him from the other side.
Liam knew Sakura must have something important to discuss or she would not disturb him when he was in his office. He quickly pressed a few keys and unlocked the door.
Sakura opened it slowly and saw him inside. She entered and closed the door again behind her.
"What happened? Does my little show outside scare you?"
Liam observed her facial expression and asked.
Sakura sighed and nodded her head. "What do you think? Anyone would be shocked by your actions."
She sauntered over, her hips swaying with deliberate intent, her eyes locked onto his. Without breaking her gaze, she reached out and brushed his hand aside with a confident, almost playful force.
Then, with a slow, sensual grace, she sank down onto his lap, her body pressing against his as her arms draped lazily around his shoulders.
"Can't you use sofa to sit?" Liam sighed and asked.
"Why?" Sakura ignored his weird expression and said. "It is much more comfortable than any sofa."
"Oh really?" Liam smiled lightly and raised an eyebrow, speaking slowly. "You know we ca-"
But before he could finish his sentence, Sakura placed a finger on his lip, preventing him from continuing on.
"I do not want to hear that nonsense. Just kiss me!" She whispered softly.
"We can't... we are sib-"
Ssshhh~!
"Just kiss me already. Do you want me to die from embarrassment?" Sakura grumbled and leaned down as she planted her lips over his mouth, kissing him.
Seph was speechless by her sudden kiss and realized that he really had no way out of this. He could only grumble at her childishness and spoiled attitude in his heart.
'Fine. Since you want it then take it... I will have to thoroughly punish you later.'
