Mr. & Mrs. Wentz
Mr. & Mrs. Mizushima
Triplets were separated at birth, each growing up in different environments.
Maki Horikita, the only one who knows that she has two sisters somewhere in this world, longs to find where they are. Struggling to live on her own, she couldn’t afford to hire a private investigator, so instead, enlisted the help from her neighbor, Shun Oguri, a Tokyo University law student.
Makiko Watanabe, as far as she knows, the world revolves around her. Being an only daughter in the most prominent, and feared, yakuza family has its rewards. Though she may get whatever she wants, she couldn’t help feeling that something is lacking in her life, no matter how full her closet is. One day, her dad’s newly hired man, Tomohisa Yamashita, has caught her eye, but in spite of her not-so-subtle flirtation, he is not responding. Makiko loves a good challenge.
Mackenzie Wentz is attracting the music world’s attention. A prodigy in piano, violin, and voice, her future is clearly leading her to fame, or so her parents wish. Mackenzie, a real music genius, refuse to practice as her mom wishes her to do, but rather just watch anime, read manga, and play with her computer-- an otaku at heart. She meets up a fellow otaku, Toma Ikuta, in the most unlikely places of all….her music conservatory school.

Prologue
1985
“’Do you really want to hurt me? Do you really want to make me cry?’” Keijo Horikita sang happily along to his favorite song. He danced about his office; his back turned from the door, oblivious to his surrounding.
“Yes, I really want to hurt you, Yes, I really want to make you cry,” a voice sang with mocked lyrics behind him.
Startled, Keijo turned around and found Yousuke Watanabe and three of his trusted men standing at the doorway. Yousuke smiled evilly. He walked closer to Keijo, who naturally backed up, but was stopped by his luminous desk.
“W-w-what do you want, Yousuke?” Keijo demanded, trying to sound calm, but his stutter betrayed him.
Yousuke scoffed. “Is that how you address someone who you owe tremendously?” Yousuke asked. He stopped an inch in front of Keijo, still smiling, though it didn’t reach his eyes.
The three men behind Yousuke by this time had entered inside the office, locking the door. Two of them were now at each side of Keijo. Keijo looked around him, and swallowed.
“Sorry, Watanabe-san,” he said softly, bowing slightly.
“Much better,” Yousuke grunted. He sent a fist to Keijo’s face. Keijo landed on the plush carpet with a thud, his nose trickled with blood.
“Now where’s my money?” Yousuke demanded. He crouched down to face Keijo, pulling him by the collar. “Where’s my money?” He shouted.
“I-I don’t have it yet,” Keijo stammered. “P-please, give me some time. I’m in a tight budget. My wife is g-giving birth soon--”
“Enough excuses! I’ve been patient, but I don’t like liars. If you promised to pay in two weeks, I expected the payment in two weeks,” Yousuke punched Keijo again. “I want my money now.”
The phone rang suddenly. Yousuke gestured to one of his men to pick it up.
“Hello,” he answered roughly, and listened to the person on the opposite end. “Sorry, Horikita-san is busy at the moment. He would have to call you back.”
“Wait, wait! It’s an emergency!” the caller yelled out through the line. “His wife is giving birth now-“ his voice cut off as the man hangs up.
“Who was that?” Yousuke asked.
“Someone reporting to Horikita-san that his wife is in labor,” the man replied.
Yousuke turned to Keijo. “Well, congratulations, Daddy,” he said sarcastically. “It’s too bad you’re not gonna see her anytime soon-unless you hand me my $500,000 now.”
“Please! Please, you heard the caller, “Keijo begged. “My wife needs me there. I give you your money in two days. Just give me two more days.”
Yousuke paused to consider it. He shook his head.
“I have a better idea,” he smirked. “I’ll get your baby as part of your payment.”
Keijo’s expression quickly changed from frightened to anger.
“I’d rather die than having my child in your hands,” he spat.
Yousuke bared his teeth. He stood up slowly, looming over Keijo. “That can be arranged,” he said with finality in his voice.
He pointed to another man. “You know what to do,” he ordered. He gestured to the other two to follow him out.
A barely audible whir of the silencer was heard as Yousuke’s men closed the door behind them.
******************************************************
“One, two, three, smile,” a young CNA* took a picture of Sachiko Horikita and her three newborn girls.
Sachiko tried her hardest to smile happily, but a trace of worry was captured in her eyes. Her brother called Keijo about an hour ago, while the hospital staff rushed her into the delivery room. There was still no sign of her husband.
The door slid open, and Sachiko expected Keijo to come in. Her heart sank when it wasn’t her husband, but instead, one of Yousuke’s henchmen.
“Omedetto*, Horikita-san,” he greeted with a smirk.
“What are you doing here?” Sachiko asked quietly. The man walked over to her.
“Don’t come any closer!” Sachiko exclaimed, but the man didn’t listen. The CNA stepped between them, but the man merely pushed her aside. He stood in front of Sachiko and the sleeping babies. Sachiko quickly hovered over them, but kept her eyes on him, glaring.
“My husband will be here any minute, and you’ll be sorry,” she screamed. The man wrenched her away from the babies, now showing his intentions.
The CNA tried to fight him off, pulling him from behind. He turned around to hit her, sending her to the wall. The CNA hit her head and was knocked unconscious.
Sachiko screamed as loud as she could as she pushed him with all her might. The man slapped her hard, and she almost fell off the bed. He quickly grabbed two babies, and ran towards the door.
Sachiko quickly got off the bed and grabbed one baby from his grasp. He fought her off, and ran outside the door.
Moments later, a Code Pink* alert rang throughout the hospital. Security came over to Sachiko’s room, and found the CNA and Sachiko unconscious on the floor.
The two babies were wailing loudly, one on the bed and the other in Sachiko’s arms. The other nurses quickly came in to check for vital signs.
In spite of the hospital locked down, the man had gotten away with one of the Horikita babies.
Moments later, Sachiko came to and was shocked to find out one of her babies had been kidnapped, and her husband was killed. She cried in anguish over her loses; clutching the two babies her arms. The nurses could do nothing to ease her grief.
*********************************************
That night, Sachiko insisted to have her daughters’ bassinets in her room. She fought off the urge to go to sleep, trying to stay awake in case anything would happen to them.
The night LVN* came to check up on her.
“How are we doing, Horikita-san?” she asked softly. Sachiko sighed, but didn’t reply. The LVN came to her bedside. “You should really rest and sleep. You’ve been through a lot today,” she said. Sachiko shook her head.
The LVN took a syringe and squirted some liquid into the IV* line.
“What are you doing?” Sachiko exclaimed. The LVN merely gave her a half smile.
“It’s just something to help you relax,” she said soothingly. She made her way to the bassinets. Sachiko’s eyes became heavy, and she tried to fight off the drowsiness.
She saw the LVN carried one of them and walked out. Sachiko tried to scream for help and to get up, but the medicine kicked in, making her drift off to dreamland.
