Kitsu got out of the tub as she heard the door knocking. "We fell asleep, Kael. Your mom is at the door. Let's get dressed up."
Kael didn't seem to care and laughed at her panic. As he was laughing, his mother said, "Dinner is ready, guys. Come down."
Kitsu panicked even more and held Kael's hand, dragging him back into the room. "Come on, Kael, hurry." (she was still waiting for his permission to borrow his clothes, as she is still not as confident.)
Kael laughed at her and told his mother, "You guys can start; we will join you in a bit."
"Okay, be quick." She got downstairs.As the steps got further, Kael looked back at Kitsu, still waiting half naked in front of him.
He quickly rummaged through his closet and found a pair of clothes for both of them. He quickly dressed up and helped her get dressed up as well.
"We should go shopping tomorrow; you can't keep wearing my stuff; it would be inappropriate."
Kitsu looked down, fidgeting her fingers shyly. "No need; I can just craft some with magic. And I don't want to be a burden."
Kael held her chin and made her look up. "It will help you get used to the society and culture of humans." As he kept holding her chin. "One more thing I want you to promise me: You won't be calling yourself a burden ever again. I am the one who brought you here, so you are under my responsibility. Thus you will become my wife in a week."
Kitsu averted her gaze and mumbled quietly, "Okay."
Kael kept looking at her and said, "I couldn't hear you."
Kitsu closed her eyes. "I promise."Kael smiled and said, "That's better." And let her chin free.
Kitsu relaxed as he let her.But he quickly sealed their lips together.Kitsu got shocked and opened her eyes widely first. She closed her eyes, returning the kiss in a while. Whispering, "Kael…"
As he let her go, he smiled with a warm expression on his face. "Now we have to dry your hair." She lifted her hand towards her hair and said, Kurut, her hair dried up in a second.
"Now we can go down your parents; they must be waiting." Kael watched her use magic, then held her hand, not letting her go.
"They can wait a bit more." As he leaned closer to her.
She quickly turned her head away. "No, we'll go now." Kael's face fell with disappointment.
"Okay, let's go down."
Kitsu turned to him and looked at him, getting sad. She couldn't resist and gave him a short kiss as he was not looking. She quickly got out of the room after kissing him.
Kael got surprised and grins after her. "I wonder where you will be able to escape in a few hours." Whispering to himself, however, Kitsu heard it, as her senses are a lot sharper than a human.
She sped up and went down stairs blushing; she didn't even notice she was in the living room without Kael being with him.
She looked at the dinner table and blushed once again as his parents were looking at her surprised.
Bianca chuckled and called her to the table. "Come, sweetheart, take a seat. By the way, where is Kael?"
She slowly moved towards the table and took a seat. "He must be drying his hair; we just got out of the shower." She blushed and looked down shortly after realising what she said.
Bianca smiled even more. "Okay, darling, you can start eating. Is there anything you want?"
She quickly looked at the table after regaining her composure.She pointed to the only thing she knew (which is meat): "Can I have some of that, ma'am?"
Bianca smiled and put some meat and a lot more different kinds of food on her plate.
"Here you go, sweetheart, and can you stop being this formal?"
Kitsu blushed once again. "But what will I call you then?" Tarık replied instead of Bianca "You can call us mother and father."
As she opened her mouth about to answer, Kael said, going down the stairs, "Can you guys stop bullying my wife?"
Bianca and Tarık both smiled while Kitsu's fluttering as they heard "Wife."
Bianca said, "We are not bullying her; that's how things should be now. Come have some food." Kael took a seat next to Kitsu, holding her hand. "Just don't force her; she is not used to it." Bianca and Tarık both nodded simultaneously and smiled at their son being so thoughtful of a girl.Tarık thought. I guess I can relax a bit; he seems to have found the right one. As he kept watching his son make Kitsu eat. He smiled and took a bite from his food.
Kael finished his food and put some more food on Kitsu's plate. "You got to finish all these." Kitsu tried stopping him. "But Kael, I am full." Kael didn't seem to be bothered. "No, buts, you are so skinny." Kitsu felt defeated and started eating the food on her plate as Kael kept looking at her.
Tarık said, "So what have you guys been doing all day? I heard you were in the room all day long. It's good to see you guys working on an heir, but please do it when you guys move to your house."
Bianca elbowed his stomach and cleared her throat. "Don't look at him, sweetheart. When we were young, he was to embarrassed to even hold my hand. He is playing tough now."
Tarık held his stomach and replied. "Weren't you the one saying no to all my attempts to get more intimate until we were engaged?"
Bianca frowned and said, "If you say one more word..." Tarık quickly got up the table and got out of the house. " I remembered I got stuff to do in the company; see you guys later."
Bianca is chasing him. "What do you have to do this late at night? You are not going anywhere."
Kitsu chuckled watching them. "They are so cute together, and they seem to love you a lot. It must be feeling good to have loving parents, she said as she looked down at her hands."
Kael looked at her getting gloomy.He held her hand tightly. "You don't need parents when you have me; thus, they will become your parents in a week as well. They seem to have taken a liking towards you."
Kitsu looked at him with gratitude.Then I kissed him passionately. "Thank you, Kael, for everything."
Kael returned her kiss and lifted her. "Hmm, does my little vampire want to learn something new?" Kitsu chuckled as he lifted her.Burying her face to the crook of his neck. "Not today, I am tired."
Kael kissed her head and carried her to his room. "Then you should rest well to learn something new." As he carried her to the bed and lay down with her. She quickly snuggled to him and closed her eyes, drifting to sleep and listening to his heartbeat.
Shortly after, they both fell asleep with the warmth of each other.
