___________________________________________

You looked around what was once your shared bedroom with Naoya. All your belongs backed away into the travel luggage that was placed safely in the carriage that would bring you and Choso to your new home.

You were about to dress in your kimono that you had kept aside, that you had prepared to wear for your departure.

Just as you were about to begin dressing you heard someone enter. You thought it would be Fujiko to help assist you one last time, but instead you were met with Naoya.

"You seem excited" he said as he walked in quietly sitting on the bed, that the two of you once shared.

"I suppose I am" you said giving him a soft smile.

"Excited to get away from me, some would say" Naoya said jokingly but he knew there was some truth to it.

You couldn't deny that you were excited to be leaving the zenin estate that lingered with feelings of dread and discipline; but you also could not deny the aching of your heart looking at your former husband.

"Shall I help you get dressed in your kimono" he stated, Naoya got up from the bed and picked up the kimono you had laid out to be worn.

He examined the kimono and noticed how similar it was to the one he had picked out for you back at the kamo estate, with its butterfly embroidery.

He carefully helped you slipped your arms in as he began tying the sashes.

Little words were exchanged between the two of you, to caught up in the moment of him once again dressing you.

When he started tying your obito you cracked the silence by asking him a question.

"What have you said to your Father? He must be upset" you said quietly hoping that he would be as somewhat understand as Naoya was currently being.

"Oh, my father" he said with a snicker.

"His livid" he said as you watch his laugh drop.

"Since I announced that I would be leaving you, his been in a foul mood. Called me an incompetent father-to-be, little does he know this kicking baby is not mine" Naoya said as he tried his best to make it sound light hearted, but you knew as much as he was trying to make the situation be a joke he was hurt by it.

But Naoya would survive just as he did before, you were the turning point of his world and now his world would just have to learn how to exist without it.

When Naoya was done helping you dress in your kimono, he took a few steps back to examine his work.

"You look good" he said giving you a smile.

"Thank you" you said quietly, returning a smile towards him.

He looked upon you in the beautiful red kimono with the intricate white butterflies that adorned the sleeves, and then looked back at your face and realized that even this beautiful kimono was nothing when compared to you.

"We should hurry this sentimental moment...Choso is waiting" Naoya said through gritted teeth.

He was happy to have you be with the man you love but it did ignite a spark of jealousy towards the man.

__________________________________________

You carefully walked to the carriage, like a bride walking down the aisle to her groom. You compared the moment to when you first walked down the aisle towards Naoya, you remember feeling scared that day unsure, but not in this moment, you were happy and very sure of what you were getting yourself into.

And Choso smile as he saw you only reassured those feelings.

When you reached Choso you gave him the biggest smile you could muster.

You were finally genuinely happy, your child would be with his father and you would be with the man you loved, it was a heart warming moment for the two of you.

Fujiko stood on the far left behind Naoya as the two of them observed you. Fujiko with her teary eyes trying not to cry to loudly, scared that it would upset Naoya.

Naoya could obviously hear Fujiko wails, but he would not barret her about it; if he was allowed to he too would be wailing.

You turned to look to Naoya and saw Fujiko running towards you. Fujiko didn't care if this was unlady like she wanted to hug her friend before she left her to live a new life.

Fujiko ran into your arms, as her tear continued to fall.

"My Lady, I-I sha-all miss you so much" Fujiko said threw muffled tears as she continued to cry into your shoulder.

"Don't waste tears Fujiko. I'll miss you too" you said trying to restrain your own tears.

"When I give birth I'll need a lady to help me; and I was hoping you'd be that lady to assist me" you said with a small smile as Fujiko pulled away from your hug.

Her eyes became wide and her mouth slightly open, in a faint shock until the words settled in her mind and her face grew into a massive smile.

"Oh yes my lady! Of course I'll help you and your child" Fujiko said now replacing her teary filled hug with a joyous one.

Fujiko let go of you as she became excited with the future that the two of you would be reunited soon, and no less to assist the child she was anxiously awaiting to meet.

Naoya unlike Fujiko was unsure if he'd ever see you again. He slowly walked towards the you and Fujiko slowly placing a hand on her shoulder.

Fujiko became startled by Naoya's presence as he had told her that he was not one to wish well on others departures.

Fujiko moved away, to allow Naoya to come to speak with you.

"Sorry Naoya-sama" Fujiko said walking to the side to allow the two of you to talk.

Choso had also vanished from your side sensing that Naoya would have his last moment with you at the Zenin Estate.

Perhaps that was one of the many reasons you fell for Choso, he was kind and thought rationally. Many men would oppose the idea of a former significant other to speak to their beloved, but Choso allowed it hoping it would bring closure to Naoyas heart.

"Well you're finally leaving" Naoya said with a small laugh as to keep a friendly nature with you.

"Well I don't know who shall be making me tea in the morning anymore" Naoya said causing you to laugh.

Naoya just admired your laugh as you seldom did laugh around him, and when you did it felt as if a thousand bubbles had been released into the sky.

"Perhaps you could find another" you said with a small smile, tilting yout head at Naoya.

Naoya new what you were implying, but his heart belonged to you and there was no other he could love, or at least his heart would never allow him to love another as he loved you.

"Tea won't taste the same unless you make it"

"Well then perhaps you'll have to visit sometime so that I could make you tea" you said keeping the smile on your face.

"It wouldn't be fair on Choso, having another man intrude on his wife's tea making"

"Well I'd still like you to come over, when ever you feel fit" you said, you didn't want to push Naoya away it would be wrong, as much pain your marriage caused you didn't think the punishment of complete distance was necessary for the two of you.

"Alright then I shall hold you to your word" Naoya said nodding his head as a way of confirming his words.

You once again smiled at Naoya, opening your arms signalling for him to give you a hug.

And he did he didn't hesitate and he knew you probably sensed that he craved to have your touch one last time.

Held you tight and took in every second of your hug, it felt as if time had stopped and universe was centered around the two of you. You unraveled in your arms and he allowed himself to. He loved you.

When the two of you pulled away he saw the your wet lashes and you noticed his, the two of you hadn't even realized that you had been crying but it didn't feel like tears of sadness. It was as if a weight had been lifted from your shoulder even if it did leave a sting at first.

You said your last goodbyes to Naoya and carefully climbed into the carriage.

"You'll look after her won't you?" Naoya said now with a stern cold face towards Choso.

"Of course I will" Choso said keeping his calm composure.

"And you'll look after your son. Raise him to achieve greatness"

"I shall" Choso said as he continued starring at Naoya.

"Well then, thank you for your services Choso-san. Even if your services were stealing my wife" Naoya said in a matter of factly tone with the same stern expression on his face; which caused Choso to try his best to suppress his laugh.

"Sorry about that" Choso said trying to keep his composure.

"You're forgiven" Naoya said quickly trying to end the conversation.

Choso nodded his head and said his goodbyes and swiftly climbed into the carriage beside you.

Naoya watched as the carriage road off with the two of you to your new lives at the kamo estate.

His eyes began to tear slightly as he watched the carriage get further and further away.

Fujiko of course noticed his tears, and was slightly intrigued by them, as she had never seen him cry. The only emotions she had ever seen Naoya in was anger and narcissism.

"Naoya-Sama are you okay?" Fujiko asked.

"I'm perfectly fine, Fujiko" he responded with.

Fujiko watched as he continued to stare at the carriage ride off with you until his eyes were unable to see it anymore.

Fujiko mind became filled with the possibly that she would have to serve a new lady soon. She wondered if Naoya would have a new woman soon, or if he wouldn't. The thoughts kept buzzing in her mind and until she asked.

"Will you ever re-marry?" Fujiko said, she didn't mean for the question to come out, but she was so lost in her thoughts she hadn't realized she had let the question slip out.

"And have a woman try to sway me with her emotions. No thank you" Naoya replied.

And just like that Naoya was back to his former self Fujiko noted.

"Women these days don't know the proper etiquette, three steps behind it cannot be that difficult to remember" Naoya went on rambling as he began walking back to the quarters.

Fujiko followed behind rolling her eyes as she continued to hear him speak about all the troubles women caused. He was back to Naoya the misogynistic tyrannical fool who thought with the member between hus legs.

Fujiko gave a small smirk thinking about how much he changed in your presence and how grateful she was for that and she new that Naoya was only putting up appearances because she knew he was deeply affected by the love you had shown him.

And Naoya was grateful for that.

__________________________________________

Five years had past since you had left the Zenin Estate.

Hiroshi was now four. The young boy was watching his father train with his katana.

He watched as he swung the katana with such ease; he grabbed the stick he had dropped and began swinging it in the same way, but even the stick felt to heavy to lift above his head.

The man dropped his katana walking over to the young boy, who was just old enough to speak in full sentences.

"You're doing well Hiroshi, you'll be better than me in no time" Choso said as he picked his son up.

He carried the boy inside his living quarters, gently placing him on the ground as he watched Hiroshi run towards your figure.

"Herari, you're covered in sweat" you said as you looked over at Choso who gave you a guilty smile.

"Mama, me and Papa were training. He was swining the katana like that swoosh"

Herari said as he copied the actions your husband was making, swinging his hands around making noises to mimic the way Choso was swinging his katana.

"Oh wow" you said trying yout best to sound impressed to the boys words.

"You and Papa must be so hungry from all the training"

"I'm not hungry at all" Hiroshi said puffing his chest out trying his best to prove that noy even hunger could overcome him; ever since Choso had told Hiroshi about the life of a Samurai Hiroshi had tried to do his best to live that lifestyle.

"Well in that case, I guess Papa and I will have to eat all that takoyaki by ourselves" you said with a sigh, giving your best sad face.

The little boy began to get shuffle his feet and twiddle with his fingers. Takoyaki was the little boys favorite snack.

"I guess I can eat it only this one time" Hiroshi said trying his best to keep his Samurai stature.

"Oh! Thank you so much" you said as you watched the boy run to the chubdai as he began to eat the Takoyaki.

"His getting so big" Choso said as he walked behind you placing his head on your shoulder.

"It feels like only yesterday when he entered the world" you listened as Choso continued to speak.

Your mind drifted to the day Hiroshi came into the world....

All the pain you felt, was worth it in the end as you held the little boy in your arms. To see how much he looked like his father.

Even Fujiko was amazed at how much the little boy looked like Choso, when she had arrived to help you in the first few weeks after child birth.

"He even as his fathers birthmark across his nose" Fujiko said in bewilderment as she held the baby.

You laughed at Fujiko's words.

"Nonetheless your son is an extremely cute baby, my lady"

"Thank you, Fujiko" you said as she carefully handed you, your child.

Fujiko watched as your child's hands reached out towards you, instinctively knowing that you are it's mother.

You watched as Hiroshi's little mouth began opening and closing a sign that he was thirsty, you carefully drew back your yukata to allow you child to suckle on you.

"So how are things back the zenin estate?" You questioned.

"Well, the same I suppose. Very boring since you left my lady. The only interesting that had occurred was when one the cooks fell in love with a servant girl and ran away with her. Naoya of course replaced them the next day, so it wasn't as if the Estate was in a crisis" Fujiko said nonchalantly.

"How is he; Naoya?" You questioned. You hadn't heard from him since you had left four months ago. Perhaps he had another woman by now and was living the life he had always wanted for the two of you.

"He is well my lady" Fujiko said, she watched as you simply nodded and Fujiko continued speaking to calm the thoughts in your head.

"His still unmarried, doubt he ever will re-marry, my lady. He speaks about you still especially when one of the servant girls do something he doesn't like he says " If my wife was still here and she saw how you cleaned she'd leave me all over again" " Fujiko said causing you to laugh slightly. You could imagine Naoya saying that.

"You know, he claims you haven't changed him much, but everyone at the Estate knows his lying" Fujiko said speaking more informally.

Your smiled at the thought that you had brought some positive change to Naoya's life, even if it was for a brief moment. You were glad to be apart of the cause that changed his heart.

"I often find him sitting by the khoi pond, starring at the khoi fish, my lady" Fujiko said with a laugh, you smiled at her words, until the two of you interrupted by Herari's cries.

....

"You're daydreaming again (Y/N)" Choso said with a laugh.

"Sorry I was thinking about the day Hiroshi was brought into the world" you said as you continued to watch the young boy stuff his face.

"Soon we will welcome another" Choso said kissing your cheek, as his hands drifted to your seven month child that was growing within.

Choso turned you to face him as he left a kiss on your lips, and you returned the gesture by placing one back on his.

"Eww" Hiroshi said making gagging noise as he watched you and Choso.

The two of you laughed at Hiroshi's reaction.

__________________________________________

That night you struggled to fall asleep.

Choso noticed your struggle.

"My love are you alright?" Choso said sitting up looking down at your figure.

"I can't seem to get comfortable in bed" you said with sigh as you were becoming frustrated that you were unable to rest peacefully.

"Perhaps I could help" Choso said as he gently placed a kiss on your lips.

Choso began to kiss you lips and slowly moved down to your neck.

Your body became heated by his actions as your head became filled with butterflies.

"Choso" you moaned.

He slowly began moving his hands down your body until they rested between your legs.

Instinctively your opened your legs for him. Choso began massaging the inside of your thighs as you let out small sighs of pleasure.

Choso hands started working towards your womanhood, he slowly began to massage your clit watching your reactions.

You arched your back as your eyes closed with pleasure. Choso took this as a sign to insert a finger into your womanhood.

Choso began moving his finger inside you slowly, he watched as you breath began quicking and your eyes would fall down to where his finger was connected to your body.

"Choso please" you begged needing more from Choso.

Choso was not one to deny you of pleasure, he quickly rid himself of any article of clothing.

He placed himself between your legs. He began to palm his member, and you lifted your head as high as you could observing his ministrations.

The red tip that was leaking precum, made your womanhood leak. You needed him and he could tell.

Choso leaned down to your bump and placed a kiss on it, you smiled at Choso's actions.

You smile was quickly replaced with frown of pleasure as Choso inserted himself inside you.

He could feel the tightening of your walls as he pushed in deeper.

He began to thrust slowly, causing you to moan out his name. You were oversensitive due to your pregnancy and every drag of Choso's cock felt like electricity was running through your whole body.

You weren't sure how much longer you could take the dragging of his cock against you walls, but you knew you were close, so close only a few more drags of his cock and you'd be cumming.

"Choso, I-I can-t hold on an-ny long-er" you said as you felt yourself creaming around his member.

The sensation alone of you cumming around him was enough for Choso to cum. He filled you to the brim with his seed and Choso was positive that if you weren't already pregnant, he would've gotten your pregnant again tonight.

Choso carefully pulled out of you, as he collapsed down beside you.

"You think you'll be able to sleep now" Choso said as he tried to catch his breath.

You lightly slapped his bicep and giggled at his words, but sure enough the love making had put you to sleep.

__________________________________________

The next morning you had woke up before Choso. Stretched your body in bed trying your best not to disturb Choso as he continued to sleep.

When you felt ready to stand up, you made your way to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for Hiroshi as he would soon be up and would immediately start complaining about being hungry.

As you began preparing breakfast you noticed the flowers that Choso had given had nearly run our of water.

You picked up the vase and slowly started pouring water into the vase. You smiled at the flowers; ever since you had arrived at the kamo estate Choso would bring you flowers at the beginning of each week.

You had mentioned to him once how you enjoyed flowers and had thought he would forget about it, but clearly he had not.

You placed the vase back down on the table as you began to prepare breakfast. You enjoyed preparing your own breakfast as opposed to having it pre-made and eating in the dining hall with everyone else.

It felt more intimate to share your first meal with your family and you enjoyed how Choso would speak to Hiroshi in the mornings; how Choso would poke fun at Hiroshi's messy hair causing the two to picker and you'd have to resolve the argument.

These moments you enjoyed with your family, and yout love for Choso only grew more each day.

You could only imagine what Choso could be dreaming of in these early hours while you prepared breakfast.

But if Choso could show you he would, he often dreamt of you, how the prophecy his mother had told him as a child had come true. He would dream of giving up his katana in return to recieve you floating down towards him like a goddess.

And if he was able to show you his dreams of where you were the goddess he had so longed for he would show you instantly.

But alas he could not and would have to show you by doing all he could in the real world to prove it, from giving you a new bouquet of flowers every week to starring at you intently with much admiration while you spoke about anything and everything.

You were Choso's fate.

And he was your Samurai.

You hoped that whatever Choso was dreaming about would bring joy to his heart, just as he brought joy to yours.

All the way back the Zenin estate Naoya stood by the khoi pond as he watched the fish splash about. He had began taking a liking to early morning walks to the pond, to enjoy the quietness before the day would begin.

He had received word of your second pregnancy, and was happy that you and Choso were able to conceive another. He was happy for the two of you even if his heart wished to have you.

Naoya knew Choso would love you to the end of times. When Naoya was younger his mother told him tales of a Samurai that would give up his honour for the love of a woman, and he had watched that tale come to reality.

Naoya would always remember you, as you held the key to his heart. He would be the husband you once had and Choso was the husband whom your heart loved he was ...

Your Samurai.

Just a side thought, I wanted to maybe write a one-shot epilogue type of thing where Naoya visits (y/n) and the kids to babysit just like a fun type of thing pure fluff.

Well then that's the end of this series it was really fun to make, I hope you all enjoyed it.

Let me know🌸

Thank you guys for all the support and for reading 💗

'(Y/N) is pregnant',

The words echoed throught Choso's mind he couldn't believe it. He didn't want to believe.

He hoped this was a sick joke, a nightmare that he would wake up from, but it wasn't the visible small that was beginning to form was evident.

"Congratulations" was all Choso could muster.

He turned around as swiftly as he had entered and left, as the tears began forming in his lashline.

__________________________________________

You hadn't known you were pregnant.

You swore that you feeling ill in the morning was because of the chia seeds in your breakfast, something new which you had just began eating.

And you being bloated was because of all the milk and honey you had been craving lately.

You were positive you weren't pregnant.

You couldn't be.

But then, one morning while Fujiko was dressing you in your kimono she looked you up and down strangely.

"What is it" you asked as her change in expression was evident.

"Lady (Y/N), have you received your monthly blood?" Fujiko questioned as she starred at your lower abdomen.

"I have not been keeping count since the last one, but I'm sure it shall arrive soon"

Fujiko didn't seem to take these words as enough evidence to crush her hypothesis.

"Lady (Y/N), do you perhaps have any foods you've become fond of recently?"

"Well, I have been enjoying these sunflower seeds that Naoya brings in the evenings" you said thinking about the delectable seeds and how you would break the seed shell to eat the delicious seedling.

"I actually would like some now. Perhaps there is some in the kitchen pantry" you said to Fujiko as you continued to daydream about the seed.

"One last question my lady"

You looked towards her singalling her to ask her question.

"Have you experienced any nauseas, especially in the mornings?"

Without thinking to much about the question you agreed.

"Yes, I have"

Without a moment waste Fujiko moved her hands from the sash of your kimono to your exposed lower abdomen.

You looked at her in bewilderment, you didn't know what had caused this strange behavior, in the usual calm Fujiko.

"Fujiko what are you doin-"

"You're pregnant" she said without any hesitation.

You stood there quietly for a moment, as you slowly tried to process Fujiko's words. You kept repeating it in your mind 'You're pregnant ' until you finally realized what she said.

"It can't be" you said hoping that by some miracle your words would be true.

"It is Lady (Y/N). The last time you bled was ten weeks ago, you're six weeks late, you show symptoms of morning sickness and have cravings. To make it more obvious you have already developed a swelling"

You stood there in shock. You were pregnant. You were carrying Naoya's child, you couldn't believe it; you didn't want to believe it.

"I shall inform Naoya-sama, as soon as possible my Lady" Fujiko said as she did her best to quickly tie your kimono.

"No, it's alright. I shall tell him this evening" you said as your eyes became distant and the tears started falling from your eyes.

You didn't leave your quarters that day, and you had stayed inside that evening. You didn't wish to see anyone. You were relieved that you fell pregnant before the second season but you were pregnant with Naoya's child, the man who couldn't keep a stupid promise.

The evening came to soon and you sat at the chubdai silently eating across from Naoya.

"Husband I wish to tell you something?"

He slowly looked up from his meal.

"Speak as your heart desires my wife" he said as he looked back down to his food, as he began picking up a dumpling.

"I'm pregnant Naoya"

Naoya dropped his chopsticks, as his gazed went back to you and then down to the little bump you were coddling.

"When did you find out?"

"This morning" you said looking down.

Naoya didn't even realize you were pregnant, but the more he thought about it the more clearer the signs became, you constant complaints of looking round, the way you'd search for his sunflower seeds, you rushing to the bathroom when the sun arisen and especially you new desire to be bedded multiple times in one night.

It was as clear as day and yet he missed it but he didn't care now. He was to happy about the fact that you were pregnant and with his heir.

That's when his cold demeanor shattered; he didn't care anymore if you'd love him less because he wasn't being distant anymore or that him seeming to not be interested in you would get him more of your attention.

He wanted to hold you and kiss you, and that's exactly what he did. Without a minute to spare he forgot about his dinner and quickly stood up approaching you and gently carrying you to your bedroom.

He could see your expression of shock as if he'd gone mad, but he didn't care.

He laid you gently on the bed as if you were a Lilly being placed in water.

He carefully laid beside you, taking you hand in his own and placing it upon your growing child.

"Thank you for bestowing my second greatest blessing upon me"

His words confused you, it was not even a day ago that he didn't care about you and now he was holding you like his life depended on it, was this all because you were pregnant. It probably was, his words swam in your head, this was the second greatest blessing you bestowed upon him.

"Naoya-Sama, what was the first blessing I bestowed upon you?" You asked with much hesitation in your voice.

"You married me"

It felt as if all time had stopped was he actually glad about being married to you, after he made you feel like nothing but an irritation and burden to him.

__________________________________________

That evening Naoya held you close and whispered into your ears about a life, where you'd be by his side till old age and you'd watch your children run around in the courtyard and feed the khoi fish he knew you were fond of.

To you it was a sweet moment that you hoped would be true, but your heart longed for another, a man who was once deemed an honorable Samurai who had the exterior of an emotionless soldier but on the inside was a soft hearted man who found joy in your curiosity of the world and love from you.

__________________________________________

But now you wish it was the prior evening, as Choso stood infront of you as your sick form was being held close to a Naoya. To weak to even stand by yourself let alone push him away.

When Naoya told him you were with child you saw Choso's heart shatter; it wasn't as clear to those who didn't know him as his facial features didn't show his sadness but you could tell by his eyes. They way they dropped to Naoya holding your small bump and back up to you, as his eyes glazed over. That was enough of a sign to you that you'd broken the man's heart.

__________________________________________

The first three months of your pregnancy was filled with you getting morning sickness and odd cravings.

By the fourth month you were glowing. Every kimono looked beautiful on you and every jewel was unmatched of your beauty.

Naoya had been stuck to your side since you had told him of his child. Every council meeting he missed, every task he was given ignored; his father of course overlooked it all as he was happy for his son.

Naobito remembered when he found out that Naoya was growing in his mother, how happy he was, how he'd refuse to do anything and everything that didn't require him to be by his wife's side. Naobito wouldn't say it was because he cared more for his wife rather for the little child growing within.

Naoya liked to think he was different to his father in that sense; Naoya did love you. He was sure of that. He enjoyed being in your company as he watched your child grow within you. He had to admit that being softer and kinder to you brought him more love and affection than his previous strategy to obtain them. Naoya was in pure bliss.

You were content for the time being, you were happy to be receiving such affections from your husband, you had to admit he wasn't that horrible. He was loathsome, irritational, demeaning, somewhat cruel but he was not horrible. Your heart new the truth though, it longed to be with the Samurai. To feel the firm grip of Choso's hand that wielded a katana, the softness of his hair as it tickled your face and the ever bright lights that would be seen shining through his eyes, you craved to have him here to have these moments that were suppose to be pure joy spent with him rather than Naoya.

Choso, however was experiencing the worst four months of his life. You'd tried to see him multiple times to talk to him but he would just ignore you, saying he was asked to do some other duty. Choso felt as if he'd given up everything for nothing. He loved you and now you were pregnant with another man's child. He began to think that this prophecy might have just been a children's story his mother said to him to help him fall asleep.

__________________________________________

It was a cool evening as your fifth month was slowly approaching, the growing dome of your child now present.

You hadn't spoken a full sentence to Choso since that morning he came in to find you with growing life inside.

You hoped that you would be able to speak to him alone, but alas Naoya was always by your side, from stone cold hard to doting father-to-be. At first having Naoya around you all the time was a new feeling and you slowly grew to enjoy it but now by you were extremely overwhelmed by having him around you all day and night seldom leaving your side.

The few times you were alone was when you you'd walk to the dining hall while Naoya attended personal talks with his father that would last no longer than five minutes. During this time you would sometimes see Choso and you would hurriedly walk over to him to try talk to him only for him to excuse himself as he had other duties to attend to. You began to realize that he was actively avoiding you and understood why he would.

But on this cool evening you had decide that enough was enough and you had to speak to him before the sun risen.

You placed your a silk scarf around your shoulder to keep you warm in your thin evening yukata.

You had already informed Naoya earlier that day that you would go for an evening walk to clear your mind for the events that would take place tomorrow, as you would meet with the monk from the zenin temple to discuss the future of your child.

You began walking to the courtyard. You hoped and prayed Choso would be standing there by the pond as he once did awaiting your nightly love making.

You carefully walked passed the hedges trying your best to stay as silent as possible.

"You know Lady (Y/N) from the first day I met you, your skills of silence have not improved much" Choso stated matter of factly.

"Noted" you said with a smile as you walked the rest of the distance to where he stood.

Choso kept his gaze fixed at the moon, as your gaze was fixed on him.

The silence from when you last spoke began to get longer and longer, the tension in the air you could no longer stand and you attempted to break it the same way he did back at the Kamo Estate.

"The fish look fat here, perhaps they are being over fed" you said pointing towards an orange khoi that had stuck its head out for a mere second.

Choso broke his gaze from the evening sky and look down towards what you spoke of.

"Perhaps" is all he said.

"So how have your duties been?" You said before another silence would befall upon you.

"Its been well" He said as his gaze remaind on the khoi pond.

"I thought your duty was to be my guard, I hadn't thought there was others you had as well" you said with a bit of a laugh to keep the mood light.

"Yes, it was my duty to be your personal guard my lady but now Naoya-sama assists your everywhere leaving me useless in that position"

You kept quiet trying to think of what else you could say, but Choso began speaking again.

"I don't blame him. I too, would want to be around the woman I love and our child that grows with in her" his gazed shifted from the pond to your bump.

You watched as his eyes remained on your child for a few minutes before connecting with your eyes, and when you looked into his eyes you saw all the memories you had created with him from the day you tried to get his name to the last night you made love in the very spot the two of you now stood.

And you tried your best to come up with what next to say but your mouth had beat you to it already speaking.

"Choso I'm sorry" you said the tears slowly began to form in your eyes and your voice got caught in your throat.

"I'm so-sorry for e-very-thing. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I'm sorry Choso. I'm sorr-"

"Do not apologize for things you have no control of" he said meeting you gaze again as his own eyes were filled with tears.

"You could not help falling pregnant, just as much as I could not help falling in love with you"

__________________________________________

You sat quietly in the temple situated on the far right of the zenin estate, as you awaited on the monk who would tell you of his premonitions of your child.

Each second passed slower than the next and your mind began drifting to prior evening....

After Choso's confession you stood there eyes widened and heart beating fast. You knew he had feelings towards you but never thought they would be as strong as love. You didn't know how to act or what to say at his words once again allowing silence to fall upon you but not as long as before.

Choso turned his body towards yours taking your hands in his. He placed a soft kiss upon your lips.

"Even if our fate was not kind enough to let us be together I'm glad I was blessed to meet you my (Y/N)"

"Lady (Y/N)" spoke the monk breaking your daydreaming to last night.

"My deepest apologies for my daydreaming" you said with a slight bow of your head.

"Quite alright my dear, the baby probably keeping you up" the kind old monk said as he looked upon you with a smile.

"Shall we begin" continued the monk as he placed a cup of green tea infront of you.

You carefully blew onto the hot water trying your best to cool it down before you drank it. You took slow sips in hopes to not burn your tongue. When the tea was nearly done you passed the ceramic cup back to the monk.

He began examining the bottom of the mug that contained the leaves.

You watched carefully as he examined the leaves hoping to be able to tell what he would say to you, what he could tell you about your child before they came into the world.

The monk carefully placed the cup on the chubdai to the left of him as he shifted closer towards your.

"May I" he said as he raised his hands towards your face.

He starred deeply into your eyes, his face remained expressionless as his hands then shifted to your bump.

He gently began applying pressure to your bump as he moved his hands around it.

He removed his hands and looked back at the cup and then your bump.

He began to close his eyes, his eyebrows slowly began to crease and the monk opened his eyes.

"From what I have seen, your child is blessed. It shall have be loved by all especially its father, as it will carry on the family name bringing great honour towards it"

You smiled as your hand instinctively went to cradle your bump, as you listen to the monk continue to talk.

"They shall be as honorable as their father and as caring as their mother" the monk continued.

You began imagining how your life would be when you finally were able to meet this child the monk spoke so highly of, how they'd bring so much joy to your life.

"This child shall be known as the great dragon, bringing great successes, having strength of great warrior and wisdom of a nobleman"

"This child - " the monk said as his eyes grew bigger.

You now grew anxious as the monk did not finish his sentence. He now looked at you with an odd expression one which you were unable to decipher.

The monk closed his eyes again.

"I see two lions running towards this child; one whose mane is fully grown and the other whose mane is still in growth. When they reach the child, the child only reaches his hands out to the lion whose mane is still growing"

The monk opened his eyes again and now looked at you with the same face of shock like he could not believe what he had just seen.

You were unsure of what to do next, but you kept quiet hoping the monk would explain what he had just seen.

"The lions in that premonition represents the child's father"

"The lion with the mane represents"

And the monk closed his eyes again.

Hope you guys like this chapter, let me know.
