No, My Last Name Isn't Kaiba (Seto Kaiba X Reader)

Two

No.

There's no way he could have known. You had been too careful, too cautious, too protective to let that slip.

And yet, as he strolled off through the crowd, leaving you stunned and confused, you knew that you had no choice. If he knew who you were, you were dead.

Unless you trusted him.

"Are you okay?" a voice said, snapping you out of your thoughts. "Y/n?"

You turned to see Takehiko, looking at you with a worried expression. "You seem off," he said.

"I'm fine," you told him, starting to make your way off of the dance floor. He stubbornly followed, catching your hand.

"Y/n, please. Did Kaiba say something that upset you?"

You shook your head. "It's late. I should be getting back." You pulled your hand out of his lightly, looking around for Jade. As if on cue, she materialized, grabbing your arm.

"We should be getting back." She began to cough into her arm. "I think I'm sick!"

Takehiko raised an eyebrow but allowed the two of you to walk off. You knew he was watching- you could feel his eyes on you.

Once the two of you were outside, headed back to the dorm, Jade stopped coughing. "Okay. Spill."

Clearly, she had been faking. It didn't take a genius.

You did your best to look cute and innocent. "He asked me to meet him at the library after the party," you told her, squishing up your face to give the appearance of repulsion.

"You have to go!" Jade exclaimed, taking your hand. "Who could pass up that opportunity? Alone with Seto Kaiba?" She sighed dreamily. "For my sake, at least, go."

"Fine, fine, I'll go," you grumbled, hoping that your heart wasn't audible. The beat had kicked up, causing a loud thump every half second. If your life was in danger, you had no choice but to meet him.

"Go right now," Jade begged. "I'll see you back at the dorm, okay?" She gave you a grin and a light shove. "You look hot right now, at least."

You couldn't help but smile back, giving her a wink. "I'll let you know how it goes afterwards."

"You do that!" She rushed off without another word.

How does she do that in heels?

As you turned away, you realized suddenly that you had no idea where to do. You decided to walk back to the party and go from there. As you passed by a building- one of the dorms, most likely- a loud crack echoed through the air. You barely had time to register that it was a gunshot before someone grabbed your arm and pulled you into the alleyway between the two buildings.

"You are not to travel alone from now on, if you're going to be that careless," Seto snapped, drawing you flush to his chest as he drew a gun from his jacket and fired a shot out of the alleyway. A thud indicated the fall of a body, but you barely heard it. You were too distracted by the scent of Seto's shirt. Extremely clean.

"Did you kill him?" you asked, wriggling out of his arms. He had been a little too close for comfort.

"No, I shot him in the shoulder. It was just a guard. Practically harmless." He started walking towards a door in the wall a few meters down. "Come on."

You quickly followed him, not wanting to risk another person seeing you and shooting. Your adrenaline was spiked enough. He led you through a maze of dark halls, which, as your eyes adjusted, you realized were lined with bookshelves. Kaiba must have found another small library somewhere.
