When I saw her trying to run away I quickly caught her hand and said

"Where are you going Nya~" I said seductively while looking at her face which was already as red as a tomato.

"I-I….." She answered with a stutter because she was confused about what to answer.

Without waiting for her to answer I immediately said “heee~ It's okay, no need to be embarrassed. You can wait in your room first, I'll be right there after I bring my beloved 'WIFE' to another room so she won't catch a cold."

I deliberately emphasized the word 'wife' to confirm to her about our relationship. With that I immediately went back to the bathroom where I had sex with her before and carried Grayfia who was sleeping in the princess's arms towards the other room.

Seeing me with such gentle care and affection for Grayfia, Yasaka unwittingly felt a little jealous because she had never seen anyone this gentle in her partner.

In fact, after Yasaka was abandoned by her husband when she was pregnant with her daughter, Yasaka started to develop a strong hatred towards all men which caused her to start changing her subordinates to all women. Without realizing it, her preferences towards her  also started to change. Therefore she started to feel her jealousy towards Grayfia who received tender attention from Kuroka.

‘how wonderful it would be if I had someone who could be relied on….’ Yasaka thought because after her husband left her daily life started to get disrupted and a lot of problems happened, not to mention she was pregnant at the time which caused her to feel overwhelmed. she could only shake her head to clear her thoughts then resignedly returned to her room while waiting for me to arrive.

…….

A few moments later, I finally arrived at Yasaka's room, even though she was pregnant, I was still amazed by her figure that was so beautiful but had a strong charisma like a leader that made her such a graceful woman. But this was understandable because of her identity as the leader of her faction. With that I immediately tried to calm down and tried to get closer.

"For the first time , sorry to disturb your rest because of a sound nya~ , Introducing my name is Kuroka and I am Nekoshou Nya~" I said with a little joke at the beginning to lighten the mood around.

At first Yasaka was confused as to what was meant by a voice that was said by me but suddenly she remembered what had made her get out of bed and couldn't help but blush for the umpteenth time again.

“N-No need to apologize, it was also my fault that trying to peek at you was doing 'that'.”

Trying to calm down, Yasaka also introduced herself“E-Ehem…. My name is Yasaka , I am a nine tailed fox and the leader of the western youkai faction…. at least a while ago” Said yasaka in a somber tone after remembering the previous incident.

Seeing that how depressed Yasaka is about her current condition, my guess about her condition that I thought before, might really be the case.

“Did something happen? Mind if I find out Nya~? “ I asked politely because I didn't want her to think I was interfering too much.

At first Yasaka was doubtful because she remembered her identity, maybe I wanted to try to take advantage of her but on second thought that I could have easily left her to die and not help her when she almost wanted to be killed before,

Yasaka chooses to believe her and maybe this is her limit and wants someone to be able to help and listen to all the grievances she has experienced since herhusband left her .

With that Yasaka began to tell the beginning of the story when she met her ex-husband, where they loved each other but one day her husband finally decided to leave her when she found out Yasaka was pregnant with her daughter.

Yasaka also told that since then she had developed a hatred for men and she also told that since then, problems came every day that made her feel tired but because she had a new life residing in her body, caused yasaka not to give up and made her source of strength for herto face all these problems.

Yasaka also talked about how it would have been if she wasn't pregnant with her daugher that maybe she would have given up and tried to kill herself because of how much social pressure she received as the leader of a faction.

I focused on listening to the story carefully while paying attention to the expression she had when she was telling it sometimes she would show a gentle expression but sometimes she would also show an angry yet sad expression at the same time and you could see there were a few bits of tears being held back when she told me how much she struggles when she faces everything alone without anyone to help lift the burden she is experiencing.

Without realizing it I started to get closer and hug her tightly because I feel sorry for her .

"It's okay Nya~... You don't need to endure it..., you've done your best Nya~" I said softly while gently stroking the back of her head.

Seeing me who suddenly hugged her. Yasaka suddenly stiffened and was confused by what I was doing. However when she heard what I said, she couldn't help but feel trembling and started to cry loudly because she had been holding it in all this time but due to her identity as the leader, she had to be strict in front of everyone.

But when she heard the words she always dreamed of hearing coming out of me, she couldn't help but feel emotional and let it all out the moment she was held in her arms.

After a while I tried to calm her down, Yasaka finally started to quiet down and when I saw her, Yasaka started to sleep peacefully in her arms.

"Maybe she's still tired of all the things that happened Nya~" I said, With that I decided to lay her back on herbed.

Since it was already late at night, I decided to return to the room where Grayfia I moved to earlier. With that I covered her with a blanket so she wouldn't get cold and kissed her forehead and said “Goodnight Nya~” and I immediately left her room. Without me knowing it, you can see that Yasaka looks a little smile when she's sleeping.

…….

The next day I woke up because I smelled something delicious coming from the dining room. because yesterday night I didn't have time for dinner due to my passionate session with Grayfia and also listening to the matter about Yasaka that I forgot that I haven't eaten anything last night which caused my stomach to be very empty.
With that I went straight to the kitchen to eat something. When I arrived at the dining room, I could see Grayfia who was preparing food while talking to Yasaka who was helping her set the table.

Seeing that somehow I feel happy that they got along quickly even though Yasaka is a youkai and Grayfia is a demon. I went straight to them

“Good morning Nya~, Is the food ready? because I am very hungry Nya~” I said.

"Good morning Milady, food will be ready soon" Grayfia replied while in maid mode.

“S-Good morning Kuroka” Yasaka greeted also nervously because yesterday she bravely cried in her arms which caused her to be so embarrassed.

"You should be more worried about your condition Yasaka, you're in the final stages of pregnancy it's not good to do a lot of work, let me set up the table Nya~" I said firmly and wouldn't accept a refusal.

Seeing me insisting on telling her to rest, Yasaka couldn't help but give in and there was a warm feeling watching me worry about her

  "Fine, thank you" said Yasaka with a slight smile visible.

While I was setting the table I started asking Yasaka what she wanted to do now.

“So what are you going to do now Yasaka? No need to feel reluctant, I will gladly support any decision you will make her ” I said seriously because I really want to help her, I can't bear to see her cry like yesterday again.
 
“……” Hearing my question, Yasaka stiffened at a loss as to what to do next. Of course she wanted to return to her faction, but seeing that almost all of her underlings had betrayed her and she was in the final stages of pregnancy was tantamount to suicide.

 Indeed she believed that there were still some of her underlings who were still loyal to her. However, it is still quite a risky move. When she saw me, she immediately had the thought of asking for her help to wipe out all of her underlings who betrayed her . Given the strength she had shown earlier, she was certain it would be foolproof.

However, she is not that low to ask people to solve her problems and she wants her to solve them herself in order to prove that she is still the leader of the western youkai faction and earn the trust of her subordinates back. With that she instantly dismissed that thought and only one decision remained.

“....May I make a request of you? asked Yasaka

“Heee~ What's that request Nya~? “ Asked me as I was quite curious about what would be presented. No matter what request it is I will definitely help her but if she makes an unreasonable request, I will be quite disappointed and lose her . But I'm still going to grant it and that's all that happens.

"Can I stay with you guys for a while until I can give birth to my daughter?" Yasaka asked hopefully

Hearing her request, I was a little surprised and a little confused, but I still replied "Of course we will accept you forever Nya~, but why only until you give birth?" ask me.

"I want to return to my faction and try to solve all the problems that occur and I beg that at that time you can take care of my daughter while I'm away and I will promise to repay you in the future" Yasaka said in a determined tone because who is the mother who do not want to take care of her daughter when she was just born? But Yasaka has to solve the problem first so that her daughter is no longer being targeted by them and having Kuroka and Grayfia take care of her is a good choice considering how strong they are.

Hearing her answer me and Grayfia who was cooking were amazed by her determination and I was a little happy for her answer but I wanted to test it a bit “…I see, but why don't you ask me or Grayfia to solve your problem? and with that I'm sure you can return to your faction as soon as possible and can give birth to your daughter there and take care of her~”

"You guys have done me too much by saving me before, but for this matter, I want to solve it myself and with that I can boldly declare that I am still the Leader of my western youkai faction" Yasaka said still with determination. although it's a bit of a pity that she wasn't able to care for her own daughter the first few months of her birth. But she did this for her daughter's future.

Seeing Yasaka like that, I couldn't help but feel amazed by her decision.

"Okay, I accept the request however, I will also give one condition Nya~" I said with a playful smile.
"....What's that?" yasaka said tensely for fear of what i was proposing.

The atmosphere got a bit tense with that but I quickly broke it.

"hehe~ no need to be tense, the condition that I want is that you must be able to return quickly and you will always be welcome at our residence Nya~" I said and continued "If your problem is over you can also live with us, because I'm sure you live alone it will be very boring. So you can live with us with your daughter in the future nya~” I said with a smile.

hearing what I said and seeing that smile Yasaka couldn't help but blush a little and was also happy with the meeting she had with them. 'How charming she is, Should I try giving my body to him for future revenge?' Yasaka thought but she shook her head as she didn't want to disappoint her first. So she decided to focus on solving her problems first and after that she promised to always support and stand by her forever.

"It has been decided! today we will return to our house in Kuoh first to rest and-” before I finished my words, there was a sound from my stomach that was quite loud.

“…….”

"Fufu~ The food is ready Milady~" Grayfia said with a little giggle while carrying a tray filled with lots of food.

I heard Grayfia's and Yasaka's chuckles a bit embarrassed and decided to ignore it and went straight to eat the food with a slight blush on my face.
