While Quintus and Gustavus were busy with their mission on one side of town, Jen Decker was preparing for her own “mission”: her second interview at Tachibana Enterprises. Her interview with the head of the cooperation, Tachibana no Ankane, had gone rather well, and the Skulk leader said that Jen would be progressing to the next stage of interviews.
Now Jen was in the middle of practicing for the next interview. Despite being told that the position of Tachibana no Akane’s personal secretary was usually filled by another Werefox (most of the time a vixen), she was determined to do her best, as she felt like she had a good chance at the position.
At the moment, Jen was in the middle of putting on the clothes she decided to wear to the interview: a grey one button blazer with a white pleated blouse underneath it and a pair of trousers that matched the blazer. As she put the blazer on and buttoned it up, the Werecat couldn’t help but admire herself in the mirror. She was impressed at how nicely she had cleaned up. Hopefully Mrs. no Akane would appreciate it as well…
A knock on her bedroom door caused Jen to look away from the mirror and towards the source of the knocking. Poking her head through the slightly cracked doorway was Claire, Jen’s human-turned-Werecat fiancé.
“Mind if I come in?” Claire asked, to which Jen nodded. Claire walked in the bedroom and shut the door behind her before approaching her lover. Standing behind her, the Werecat wrapped her hands around Jen’s waist and rested her head on her lover’s shoulder, looking at their reflection in the mirror.
“You look lovely Jen,” she said. “Very professional.”
“Thank you Claire,” Jen responded, nuzzling her lover affectionately. “I hope this interview goes well. Being the personal secretary to Tachibana no Akane herself would be a huge honor, and the pay would help to put Tad through college and help us start our new life together.”
“Of course the interview will go well,” Claire said. “The practice interview we did went really well. You know your stuff, so all you have to do is show them why you deserve that job more than anyone else who’s applied.”
Jen smiled and kissed her lover’s cheek. “Thanks love,” she said. “If things go well, I promise that you and I will do something ‘extra special’ to celebrate.”
Claire grinned and returned Jen’s kiss. “I can’t wait.”
