Family
Akito slowly opened her eyes. It was still dark and a ray of moonlight came through the small opening in the curtain and lightly lit up the room. She turned around in the bed and put her hand on the place next to her. It was empty and cold. Akito sat down. Shigure was not there. She got up and left the room. She knew where to find him.
She entered the room next to hers, quietly. Shigure was seated in the chair next to the cradle. He was holding Shiki against him and they were both sleeping peacefully. Akito smiled tenderly and walked over. She kissed Shigure's cheek and knelt down. She gently stroked Shiki's cheek with her finger, being careful not to wake him up.
My family, she thought. She never thought she could be so happy. Even when she was the God of theJunishi, she had never felt so much love as she could feel for this little being. Being pregnant had scared her. Even if she had wanted it more than anything, she was afraid to become like her mother. But when she first held her son, she loved him more than anything and she vowed to do everything to protect him.
Akito rested her head on Shigure's lap and looked at them. She loved those moments when they were just the three of them. She felt sleep overcame her and she closed her eyes. She fell asleep next to the two most important people in her life.
