Chapter 85: Break
Somewhat to Kagomaru’s surprise, Sesshoume gently kissed his forehead again, saying, “You are without reproach.”
“I’m also without appeal.”
He’d hoped she’d argue the point. Her lack of protest might have inflicted a deeper sting if she’d actually been listening to him. Kagomaru asked, “Is something wrong?”
“I also need to check on Izayoi.” Sesshoume’s nostrils quavered. “This will be the day.”
“For?”
The barest of frowns touched her lips. “Can you hold back my father?”
His ardor quickly cooled. “Erm… is he here?”
“He will be,” Sesshoume warned. “As will the pup.”
Kagomaru caught on. “Lady Izayoi is…?”
“Travailing.”
