Chapter 62: Looking to the Future
Kagomaru reclined on his side, watching his wife’s claws sift through Rin’s hair. The girl lay between them, her small hand nestled in Sesshoume’s fur. In two days, their household had expanded twice. But why would a demoness show such benevolence? “Do you like children?”
“Pups are the future of the pack.”
“Rin is human.”
“As is her alpha.”
Realizing she meant him, Kagomaru asked, “Is that like… head of the family?”
She inclined her head. “He rules the clan and looks to their future.”
Pups and futures. Kagomaru tried not to smile. “Sesshoume-sama, have you given me a daughter?”
