Hello Everyone... This chapter is a Lemon between Baldo and Captai Komamura... I liked it but it's pretty lengthy. Thank you for sticking with the story this far... Enjoy!

Chapter 25: Homecoming

Baldo and Rotondo gasped as loudly as when they were outside just from the sight of the living room. The ceiling stood over 20 feet high making even Sajin Komamura appear like a dwarf. The rest of the living room had the jumbo sized furniture like in Sajin's Captain's quarters, amenities, and hardwood floors that extended throughout the rest of the home.

The home's layout resembled the Squad 7 barracks. Rotondo nearly fainted seeing the size of the kitchen. Continuing the tour to the bedrooms, they entered Garland's room first that consisted of a giant cushion on the floor that felt like a cloud.

Moving onto Rotondo's room, the bear found a bed with a mattress so firm his back cracked the instant he laid down on it. There was a desk off to the side with a ton of paper on it.

They went to Baldo's bedroom and found a bed double the size of Rotondo's and Garland's bed combine. Clearly it wasn't meant for him alone. Baldo's eyes tear when he found the police sketch of Captain Komamura hanging on the wall.

"Wow dad," Baldo said, "This house is amazing."

"Wait until you see the garden," Sajin led the group back through the house.

Rotondo wandered the hall still in awe of the vaulted ceilings. "This place is unbelievable," the bear exclaimed, "Baldo what do you want to do today?"

"A nice quiet evening alone with family would be nice," Baldo answered thoughtfully as Sajin prepared to open the back door when Baldo added in a whisper, "And an intimate night alone just me and dad."

"Then," the wolf hesitated with a sigh. His golden eyes reflected sadness, "I'm sorry."

As the door slid open a collective group of voices cheered in unison, "WELCOME TO THE NOBLE HOUSE OF THE KOMAMURA CLAN!"

Baldo's eyes immediately over flooded when he saw over half of the 13 Court Guard Squads including the entirety of Squad 7 and 12 all standing in front of a luscious garden of wild flowers, Koi Ponds, and statues.

The garden extended becoming the entry way to a rich forest on its left and a small beach that stopped at a lake on the right. The pool reflected a perfect replica of the afternoon sky. Baldo knew it would give way to a magnificent sunset.

Baldo's eyes found Captain Yamamoto talking to the other captains and an orange haired Soul Reaper by a bench under a cherry blossom tree.

"Ichigo," Baldo whispered in surprise.

"Yes, I invited him and his friends," Sajin said getting summoned by Yamamoto, "If you'll excuse me."

"Ishida, too," Rotondo's head extended as he disappeared into the crowd of Soul Reapers.

Baldo lowered to an audible only Garland could hear, "So Rotondo and Ishida, huh?"

"Yeah," Garland said but was interrupted when a group of Soul Reapers muscle their way in-between Baldo and his brother.

The men congratulated Baldo pulling the human in multiple directions. Baldo did his best maintaining a smile but his mind continued dwelling on his recent reassignment to the Royal Guards. The thoughts nearly brought him to brink of tears several times.

Baldo spotted Ishida by an ice sculptor of a dragon, no doubt brought by Squad 10 Captain Hitsugaya, and he headed toward the Quincy. On his way over, Baldo smiled when he heard Lieutenant Omaeda apologize and thank Captain Unohana.

When Baldo neared Ishida, he saw the Quincy watching Rotondo bowing repeatedly to Captain Kurotsuchi.

"So it's true. You and Rotondo," Baldo stepped next to Ishida.

"W- What," he stammered realizing he's been caught, "Oh hello, Baldo."

"Hi Ishida," Baldo said watching the bear glancing in their direction.

"I'm glad you're awake," Ishida started.

Baldo cut him off, "I'm happy you and Rotondo found each other."

"W-What? I don't know what you mean," the Quincy blushed.

"Come on. I'm probably the only one you can talk to about it," Baldo looked longingly at his father who wore a mask of his own. "Listen don't sit on your feelings. He's a Shinigami and he could die tomorrow."

"Baldo," Ishida gasped.

"Live each day as if it's your last otherwise you'll have regrets," Baldo's voice cracked.

"Baldo, what happened," Ishida asked but at that time Ichigo, Orihime, Chad, and Tatsuki showed up.

"Hey Baldo," Ichigo said, "The Head Captain told me about your promotion. Congratulations!"

Baldo turns toward them with tears streaming, "T-Thank you. Excuse me."

They watched as Baldo forced a smile sitting alone on the bench beneath the cherry blossom tree.

"Ichigo! You jerk," Tatsuki yelled punching Ichigo's arm.

"Ow! What was that for," Ichigo asked rubbing his arm.

"You made him cry," she answered.

"How? All I said was congratulations," the Substitute Soul Reaper rebutted.

Garland walked up to them, "It's not your fault. It's his promotion."

"Why would he be upset about that," Orihime asked.

"I thought becoming a member of the Royal Guard was the highest honor," Ichigo continued the thought.

"It is," Garland answered, "Their lowest rank outranks Head Captain Yamamoto."

"Why do I feel there's a but," Ishida fixed his glasses.

"But you have to be willing to make the sacrifice," Garland said.

Orihime gasped, "Sacrifice?"

"Since the Royal Guards protect the most important people of the Soul Society, the Soul King and Queen in a separate dimension, the Guard's under strict rules, regulations, and restrictions," Garland explained calmly, "Baldo won't be allowed to reveal his location or communicate with the Soul Society."

Garland continued after their gasps, "All of his missions will be covert and of the highest caliber. Also, the Royal Guards must always be on call at a moment's notice.

"Baldo will be required to work around the clock and Royal Guard members are not permitted to leave, vacation, or take time off for any reason. Basically, this will be the last time we will ever see Baldo," Garland finished.

"What," Ishida's eyes widen as Orihime and Tatsuki gasped while Chad remained silent.

"Why doesn't he just turn down the promotion," Ichigo asked, "I would."

Garland's voice cracked, "He tried. Baldo declined asking to remain in the Seireitei as a member of Squad 1 but Yamamoto said the promotion was an order not a request.

"Apparently the Royal Guards were interested in him since the Aizen battle and requested progress reports. It's the reason Squad 14 never expanded. It wasn't because of Rotondo and me but because nobody was allowed to join," Garland explained, "Squad 14 was created solely to showcase Baldo's talents if any as a Captain.

"After the Kageroza incident, the official orders came through to disband the unit and have Baldo reassigned to the Royal Guard then. However the Head Captain was able to convince the Soul King that Baldo was still too young.

"They rescinded the order until Baldo sparred with Captain Zaraki and you know the rest," Garland looks at Baldo still sitting alone, "He finally told dad his feeling when he woke up. Baldo thought they were going to be together forever. He's upset because this is the last day they'll be together."

"Why does Baldo have to keep saying goodbye to his family," Orihime cried.

"Live each day as your last," Ishida trailed off, "If you'll excuse me."

The Quincy walked away while Tatsuki made a beeline for Baldo. His eyes followed the sinking sun when Tatsuki arrived.

"Hi Tatsuki," Baldo continued watching the sunset.

"May I join you," she asked.

"Yes, please," Baldo answered making room on the bench.

"What a beautiful sunset," she said sitting down.

"It's as spectacular as I had imagined," Baldo smiled at her, "I can't believe it'll be the only one I get to see from here."

"Garland told us about your promotion."

Baldo sighed returning his attention to the lake, "I know."

"How?"

"I've got good hearing," Baldo wiggled his left ear before sighing, "I'm sorry I can't be the man you and Gena want."

"What?"

"I'm not going to be able to return to see her. I won't be able to keep my promise and play with her. I'm a lousy cousin," Baldo said, "But I'll ask Garland and Rotondo to check in on her from time to time. Though…

"Could you tell her about them? I don't think Gena got to meet them yet," Baldo asked.

"Of course, Baldo," Tatsuki whispered, "I think I like-."

"Thank you, Tatsuki," Baldo interrupted her apologetically, "I'm happy that you came today and I like you too but I'm sorry. I don't know how to love you because my heart belongs to another."

"To Captain Komamura," Tatsuki smiled, "I know. Orihime told me when I told her I had feelings for you. Unfortunately that doesn't change how I feel about you."

"I'm sorry," Baldo said.

"Stop apologizing," Tatsuki boiled, "It's hard to stop liking you when you apologize. Say you're sorry again and I'll punch you."

"I'm sorry," Baldo ignored the pain shooting up his arm, "I'm not sure when the love subsides but I hope it's soon. Sometimes the pain of not being with a loved one can be unbearable."

"Thank you, Baldo," Tatsuki bowed.

"I think your group is leaving," Baldo hugged her. He whispered in her ear, "I wish I could return the love you feel."

"I know," Tatsuki kissed his cheek when Ichigo's group joined them.

Baldo smiled when they said Ishida would meet up with them in the morning. After Ichigo left, a sword came down on Baldo's shoulder but didn't cut him.

"Not tonight, Kenny," Baldo lifted the zanpakuto off his shoulder.

"But you left your guard wide open," he laughed.

"Please, Captain Zaraki," Baldo begged.

"What happened to Kenny," the Squad 11 Captain asked.

"I realized it's inappropriate to address my superior in such a manner."

"Superior," Zaraki laughed, "I don't care about titles."

"Well I do sir," Baldo answered.

"Then draw your sword," Zaraki smiled, "That's an order."

"Please, sir, I don't want to ruin my father's garden."

"They're just flowers," Zaraki egged, "I want to fight a member of the Royal Guard!"

"I'm sorry Captain Zaraki. It wouldn't be any fun," Baldo looked in the captain's eye with a hurt expression. "My heart isn't in it."

Zaraki finally calmed down resting his sword on his shoulder. "Well if that's the case," the captain turned away, "Hey kid. I'll cut you twice as deep next time if you call me Captain Zaraki again."

"Thanks, Kenny," Baldo whispered and then he added, "Goodbye Yachiru. I hope you got your fill of candy."

"Bye-Bye, Bowsir," Yachiru appeared on her captain's shoulder holding a pillow case as big as her. She smiled lifting the bag, "I got it all!"

"Hey Ichigo," Zaraki yelled, "Wait up." The captain took off with his usual blood thirsty laugh.

As if on cue, all the captains came up to Baldo congratulating him on his promotion and thanked him for the invitation.

Captain Kurotsuchi even approached thanking Baldo for the beautifully written apology and cookies. Baldo admitted that his brother, Garland Komamura, actually wrote the letter. Kurotsuchi left muttering that the Komamuras were full of surprises.

Baldo bowed thanking Captain Hitsugaya for his help three years ago and the beautiful ice sculpture he brought. Then he thanked the Squad 13, 8, 5, 3, 9, and 6 captains for coming.

When Soi Fon stepped forward, he bowed thanking her for making Lieutenant Omaeda continue apologizing and thanking Squad 4. She actually laughed a rarity in its own rite and returned Baldo's bow thanking him for making Omaeda finally learn some respect and humility.

Then Captain Unohana appeared saying goodbye. Baldo started to bow but continued into a hug. He thanked Unohana for all hers and Squad 4's help mending his repeated injuries and for being the only person he could confide in. She thanked him in kind and wished him goodbye. Baldo saw a tear trickle down her cheek when left.

Finally, Head Captain Yamamoto extended his best wishes though with a touch of sadness. Baldo bowed thanking the Head Captain for the opportunity to serve and protect the Seireitei and wished that he could remain there forever. Baldo, also, asked Captain Yamamoto to keep a protective eye on his father, Captain Komamura.

"I will. I know how important he is to you," Yamamoto answered instead of giving his usual impassive grunt. It caught Baldo by surprise.

The human collapsed back on the bench when his father sat down beside him.

"I'm sorry," Sajin said, "I saw how painful tonight was for you."

"It's not your fault, dad," Baldo answered watching fireflies dance in the darkened sky. "A welcome home party was unexpected and I greatly appreciated it. It's just that."

"Promotion," his father finished. "To join the Royal Guard is a huge honor. Thousands of Soul Reapers aspire just for a chance to be considered."

"Then let one of them have it," Baldo yelled angrily, "To me its life in prison. I would have been better off staying asleep or dead."

"DON'T SAY THAT," Sajin's roar echoed across the Seireitei. "Don't EVER say that. Those three years were the toughest of my life. Believing that you would wake up was the only thing that kept me sane. If I were to lose you I'd…" His father couldn't finish.

"Oh dad," Baldo buried his face into his dad's chest. The wolf's arms immediately wrapped around him when Baldo continued, "I'm not ready to leave the Soul Society. I love it here and I can't bear to live without you. I love you. I want to grow old with you. Why…

"Why do they want me? I can't perform basic Kido. I never learned the incantations to strengthen them. I can't lead more than Rotondo and Garland and I end up in the hospital because I can't bear to see them hurt."

"That's why they want you Baldo," Sajin kissed Baldo's forehead and continued "They want you because you've created original Kido techniques the first in a millennia. They want you because your chant less Kido are more powerful than most incanted ones.

"They want you because you've defended the innocent from captains and visored by becoming a captain level Shinigami while still in a human body. They want you because you've defeated over 20,000 Hollows in your first month as a Shinigami.

"They want you because with a handful of troops you led an assault against the Seireitei and defeated all 13 Court Guard Squad Captains who fallen under control of Algera Sponge.

"They want you because your desire to protect not only the innocent but your subordinates as well is so great that their trust in you becomes unbreakable. If they knew nothing else that would be enough to recruit you," Sajin continued holding Baldo close to his chest, "They're the same reasons I fell in love with you."

"I didn't defeat all the captains," Baldo watched the fire flies, "Captain Unohana and Kenny were never under mind control and I had help against the others."

Sajin chuckled, "Semantics."

"You knew the Royal Guard would come for me didn't you, dad," Baldo asked.

"Yes, ever since the Aizen fight," Sajin sighed heavily, "I just never imagined they'd recruit you so young. Most Shinigami have over 200 years of experience not five years total. Truthfully, I thought we'd have more time together."

"Technically it's only been a year and a half to two years," Baldo said watching the moon ascend.

"Details," Sajin chuckled drawing Baldo's gaze. He gasped raising his father's curiosity, "What's the matter?"

The moonlight made Sajin's crème color chest glow a majestic hue and made his orange over coat look ablaze. When his father's head turned, it resembled the flame burning atop the wick of a candle. His golden eyes flickered in the moonlight only adding to the illusion.

"You look absolutely breath taking basking under the moonlight," Baldo could not break away from his father's enchanted gaze. "I don't know how I'm going to survive without you."

"Baldo, thanks to your soul link ability you will never have to," Sajin caressed Baldo's cheek.

"It's not the same," Baldo said suddenly being lifted in a bridal carry. "Dad what," Baldo questioned as his father flashed stepped to the bedroom.

"Tonight we're going make sure you'll have enough of my soul intertwined with yours so that we'll always be together," Sajin carried Baldo across the threshold and placed Baldo on the bed. "I'm going to draw the windows. We don't want any peeping toms. Get undressed," the wolf commanded.

Baldo obeyed the Alpha male. Turning away from his furry dad, Baldo was naked in a second. Going to lay back on the bed, he hesitated when he saw the 14 insignia at the center of the quilt.

"Do you like it," Sajin asked only wearing his black Shihakusho. He began removing his uniform while continuing his story, "I had your haori converted into a quilt. This way it'll be like you're hugging me every night."

Baldo looked at his father who looked away a little embarrassed. His father added, "I know. Corny right but that's what I tell myself anyway."

"I love it," Baldo threw his arms around Sajin's neck. "I love you, Daddy Sajin." Baldo locks lips with the wolf then allowed the wolf's tongue to explore Baldo's mouth before breaking their kiss.

Sajin slowly works his way down Baldo's neck while he finishes undressing with Baldo's help. Both completely naked, the wolf lays his son down on the bed.

Baldo saw his father standing at the foot of the bed with the wolf's full erection. Growing a little self-conscious, "Daddy Sajin," Baldo started shyly, "Do you know any Kido techniques to make me bigger?"

"Well I know one," Sajin smiled impishly.

"Can you teach me-, Oh," Baldo trailed off as Sajin took his son's length into his muzzle. Baldo's confidence returned as the wolf's head bobbed up and down. Baldo began thrusting in rhythm with his father.

Sajin removes his mouth from Baldo's member. The cool air surrounded Baldo's penis causing him to release a small growl.

His father smiled evilly, "Who are you growling at pup?" The wolf's hands moved to both of Baldo's nipples. He squeezed then twisted them hard making Baldo yelp in pain with tears in his eyes.

"Ah dad," Baldo cried as Sajin's mouth licked and sucked his left nipple while gently rubbing his right. The wolf copied the sensation moving his mouth to the right side.

Sajin continued his upward track moving his mouth to Baldo's face and passionately kissed. Baldo asked Sajin to rotate into a 69 position. Smiling, his father complied allowing Baldo to become face to face with Sajin's pulsating member.

Baldo started licking the wolf's throbbing underside tracing it to its base. Descending Baldo felt his father's pre-cum string from his chin. Sajin had taken Baldo into his mouth and the human wanted to return the favor. He concentrated and whispered, "Breathe Draco, in."

Sajin paused as Baldo's mouth swallowed his tip and released a pleasurable groan when Baldo engulfed all the way to his base. His father started thrusting in and out as Baldo's tongue wrapped and massaged the wolf's excitement.

A pleasure groan rumbled from Sajin's body as the wolf's body tensed and released a rush of creamy fluid down Baldo's throat. "Oh Baldo," Sajin grunted before finding the strength to resume sucking his pup.

He released the wolf's still harden excitement and traced its length with his tongue passing the base continuing to the area between Sajin's hole and scrotum. His father started squirming and laughing when Baldo's tongue slipped up and down.

"Baldo stop that tickles," Sajin laughed with his mouthful. Baldo's sensitive head scraped his father's canine.

"Ow, dad, that hurt," Baldo said.

"It's your fault. I told you to stop," Sajin laughed, "As punishment for being a disobedient pup I want you to roll over."

"What," Baldo asked complying when his father whirled his finger in the air.

Sajin positioned himself at Baldo's butthole. The human grasped the sheets as his father's tip pushed across his threshold. The wolf only went a couple inches before Baldo rocked back all the way. He regretted that decision.

"Baldo, you're going to hurt yourself," his father sounded worried.

"It's okay. I want to feel you inside me forever," Baldo offered a smile feeling his insides burn.

"Alright," Sajin grabbed Baldo's hips, "Don't squirm."

Baldo did his best to comply with his father's orders but the wolf bucked hard and furious. His father's mouth clamped around Baldo's shoulder it hurt, not as much as the pain in his ass, but enough to keep the human from squirming.

Slowly Baldo began rocking hearing his father's furry balls slap against his cheeks. Sajin's furry hand cupped Baldo's flesh between his thighs tickling the sensitive underside of Baldo's tip.

Lost in the frenzy, Baldo did not notice when his father rocked back into a sitting position. He slid Baldo up and down on his lap. The wolf's head lowered under Baldo's arm to Baldo's burning crotch. Baldo could not contain the pleasures he was experiencing from both ends.

"Oh Sajin," Baldo gasped, "Don't stop. Don't stop, Daddy Sajin. I'm- Ah," Baldo essence entered the wolf's mouth. He felt his father swallowing as his anal walls tightened sending Sajin's essence into his bowels. It warmed Baldo's entire body.

Sajin release Baldo from his mouth moving his muzzle to Baldo's mouth. Exchanging tongues, Baldo could taste himself still fresh on Sajin's breath.

"I knew you'd taste sweet," Sajin said sincerely.

"That was amazing Daddy Sajin," Baldo smiled through heavy breaths.

"Was? Who said you're done," Sajin's impish grin returned, "Oh and I like it when you call me daddy."

Baldo returned the impish grin, "I love you, daddy."

Baldo leads the wolf in another kiss as their session began again. They exchanged fluids four more times before collapsing on the bed. Baldo snuggled against his already sleeping father.

"No, Baldo. Don't go," Sajin muttered in his sleep.

"That's my papa wolf," Baldo kissed Sajin's salty wet nose. Tears fell as Baldo entered his own nightmarish dreams.
