Tides Against Time: Ego Trip
When Kagome reached the top of his shirt she began to kiss and lick along his jawline and nibbled on his earlobe. While her skillful tongue and fangs caressed his heated skin her dainty fingers slowly undid the buttons along his shirt. As she kissed and undressed him Sesshomaru leaned into her touch and closed his eyes. The feeling of her touching him was as gentle as a butterfly's wings and it sent pleasant tingles all the way to the tips of his toes. He loved it when her little fangs scraped along his skin. He couldn't stop the moan from escaping his lips when she nibbled and licked along the shell of his ear even if he wanted to. She made every nerve ending in his body spring to life. When she finished unbuttoning his shirt her little hands began to trace his hard lean muscles along his chest, abs and upper arms.
"Have I ever told you how handsome you are?" Kagome asked as she traced his markings along his pectorals.
"Not recently." Sesshomaru answered. "Last you mentioned it was on our island fifteen years ago."
"Ah yes…" Kagome said as she kissed just above his heart. "You wanted to take me on my hands and knees that day too."
"Indeed." Sesshomaru chuckled when he remembered how horny he'd been that day. She'd looked just as beautiful then. "You called me a big, strong, powerful alpha that day."
"That is true." Kagome said as she unhooked his belt. "But that's not all I said. Were our first time together as lovers not cut short by Urasue I would have told you more."
"More?" Sesshomaru asked curiously.
"Mhmm." Kagome hummed as she unfasten his pants.
When his pants and boxers hit the floor she took a step back to take in his nakedness. She groaned and nibbled on her lower lip when she took in his beautifully sculpted body. The hard lines were still cut in all the right places and his magenta markings complimented each one. She remembered checking him out on the beach that day when he'd been lying on his back with the top his shirt unbuttoned. He still had it, even 15 years later. In her opinion he'd trimmed out even more. Maybe he aged like wine? It only got better with time?
Along his wrists were markings that curled up his arms and ended just above his breastbone. Similar lines carved up his legs starting at his ankles and ending just above his tailbone. She loved how they pointed down towards his ass. Along his back were markings aligning his shoulder blades and the ridge of his spine. Her favorite lines however, were the ones curving his hips. They dipped into the v-cut leading down towards his penis. Looking at said anatomy she noticed it was fully erect and begging to be touched.
Hearing his panting and racing heart beat in her ears, she knew her looking at his body had him flustered. The mushroomed tip of his cock was swollen and red making the rest of his long shaft stand proud. His girth was thick and nestled perfectly in beautiful white fur. Leading up from his crotch was a silver happy trail and little white hairs covered his legs, arms, and upper chest. He was beyond sexy… he was a fallen god.
"Damn…" Kagome inwardly groaned as a flood of heat curved her womanhood.
"Kagome…" Sesshomaru's beast growled impatiently.
"(Clears throat) Right! Let's see here." Kagome said as she began to circle him. Running her fingers along his arm and over his shoulder she said, "I know you are strong but something else I think is handsome about you is that your shoulders carry more than your own burdens. You carry your pack's as well as your peoples. Your strength goes on as mighty warrior, a Lord and an alpha. You don't have to do the things you do or as efficiently as you do but you do it anyway. You are an amazing leader Sesshomaru and your confidence is very sexy."
"Is it?" Sesshomaru teased with a cocky grin. He didn't know his mate felt this way about him and having her support even through this was more than enough.
"Very. However, don't get too cocky my dear. It might all go to your head." Kagome insinuated making him chuckle. As she began to run her fingers along his scalp she said, "I also love your hair. It's so soft and light like the clouds you showed me. Do you remember when you taught me how to fly Ah-Un?"
"I do." Sesshomaru said as a gentle gleam shimmered in his eye. "It is a memory I have looked back on many times during our time apart."
"Do you think we could go on that vacation now that I'm back?" Kagome asked as she set his hair over one shoulder and began to massage his neck and back.
"Perhaps." Sesshomaru sighed as he enjoyed her little massage along his shoulder blades. "I have a message that is set to arrive in three days. Depending what the letter states will decide if we can go or not."
"Alright." Kagome said as she placed a kiss between his shoulder blades before wrapping her arms around his waste. Nuzzling into his back she said, "I love how beautiful your muscles are especially when you rub against my body when you make love to me. You make me feel cherished as your bitch when you dominate my body and hold me in your arms. I love the feeling of you tall muscular body over top me as we mate. It makes me feel small and feminine."
"I too feel the same with you in my arms." Sesshomaru admitted as he looked over his shoulder so he could look into her eyes. He smiled when he felt her growing bump against his back and her chin resting on his shoulder as she held him. "You are mine. All of you."
"As you are mine." Kagome smiled as she stood on her tippy toes to kiss his lips. "You want to know what else I think is handsome about you?"
"What?" Sesshomaru asked as she loosened her arms around his waist and came to rest her hands over his chest.
"You're getting a kick out of this aren't you?" Kagome giggled when she saw the amusement reflecting in his eyes.
"Perhaps." Sesshomaru smirked making her laugh.
"Maybe I should stop before your head gets any bigger?" Kagome teased making him growl playfully.
"Don't be ridiculous. This Sesshomaru would never fall pray to such weakness." Sesshomaru growled as he pulled her into his arms and nibbled along her jaw. "He simply appreciates your approval."
"Alright." Kagome giggled. "Something else I find handsome is your sharp whit. You are so clever Sesshomaru and it makes me question my intelligence sometimes."
"Nonsense." Sesshomaru said as he buried his nose into her hair. "This one would never mate a simpleton. You are highly intelligent and he finds many of our conversations stimulating."
"Well that's good to know." Kagome sighed as she snuggled into his embrace. "You already know I love your eyes. When I first saw you as a pup I instantly fell in love with them. When we were apart they stayed with me like a security blanket. You were always watching over me, even when you didn't know it. It was so dark on the other side. I couldn't remember anything but your eyes and they stayed with me until I stood before the gods themselves. I could stare at them all day and never grow tired of looking into their depths."
"The golden color is of the inu line. I am uncertain if our pups will have them or not but seeing as my brother changed species and he still passed them onto his young believes there is a chance our little ones will have my eyes." Sesshomaru said as he held her in his arms.
"I hope they have your eyes. They are so beautiful and it would be nice to have a way to look at them while you are away at work. There is something else I hope carries over." Kagome said as she pulled back form his embrace and traced the stripes on his chest. "Your hypnotic markings are lovely. Before I became a demon I didn't know markings could cover your entire body. I'd seen your wrists and cheeks but didn't realize they were on other parts of your body until we were on the island. You had unfastened your shirt and I noticed this marking on your chest but could not see where it went under your shirt. I also saw the markings on your ankles when you'd pulled your socks off to keep them from getting sandy."
"Is that why you were staring at my person?" Sesshomaru smirked when Kagome's cheeks tinted pink at the reminder. "It was, wasn't it? You wanted to touch my markings."
"So what! I didn't have any at the time and yours were right there in my face!" Kagome defended with a cute blush. Then another thought came to her and a wicked grin took its place. "That's not all that was in my face that day."
"What else?" Sesshomaru asked uncertain. He'd didn't know were this was going and seeing the wicked gleam in her eye he couldn't help but be a little nervous. Of course he'd never admit that out loud but she was unpredictable in times like this. He needed to proceed with caution or risk saying something out of turn and making her hormones get the best of her. He hated seeing her cry and was not about to ruin their time together.
Warning: Lemon, please advise. Marked when finished.
"Well there is of course your loving heart hidden behind your title, your talented claws and fangs along my body as we make love with your beautiful mouth. I know I could kiss you for hours and never grow tired." Kagome admitted as she curled a strand of his hair around her finger mischievously.
"But that's not what stood out to you the most." Sesshomaru said cautiously.
"No…" Kagome smiled as she untangled her finger from his hair and began to trail her fingers down his chest. "What stood out to me the most was that my chosen demon was very…"
"Ugh…" Sesshomaru grunted as she at last took hold of his swollen penis in her hand.
"Very big and very… very male." Kagome's beast panted huskily as she wrapped her hand around his cock and slowly slid down its shaft making him hiss. "My alpha is big and I wished even then to carry your seed. I desired to grow heavy with your sons and for you to call me yours forever."
"Truly? Even then?" Sesshomaru groaned out in pleasure.
"Yes... I knew not the touch of a male but craved for you to burry deep into my womb. I wanted you to fill me with your sons over… and over again until the end of time." Kagome's beast purred as she continued to slowly pump against his cock. As she did this Kagome licked up his neck and played with his nipples. "Now my womb is filled to the brim with your pups and my heart and soul have been claimed by my Alpha. My dream has come true."
Sesshomaru moved by her confession lifted her chin up and claimed her lips in a passionate kiss. As her hand continued to slowly rock against his shaft Sesshomaru threaded his fingers into her hair at the nape of her neck and angled her mouth against his to deepen their kiss. Their tongues stroked and twisted in time with her hand making their breathing staggered and heavy. As Kagome sucked and pulled on his lower lip with her little fangs Sesshomaru moaned against her lips and ground his cock harder against her hand.
When her thumb rubbed against his mushroom's slit he gasped in pleasure and panted for breath against her lips. When her other hand began to fondle his sack his body caught on fire and ached to spill. Resting his forehead against hers he looked into her hooded eyes and groaned. She might be tiny but she was a force to be reckoned with. Only she could bring him to his knees begging like a dog in heat.
"K..Kagome." Sesshomaru panted out, as his shaft grew unbearably tight.
"Shhhh…" Kagome soothed as she felt his cock and sack hardening in her hands. "Let it go honey... let me love you like you love me."
As she continued to stroke his manhood she began to kiss down his chest until she was kneeling before him. Sesshomaru watched through hooded eyes as she kneeled before him. It was extremely erotic seeing her willingly submitting herself to him. It had his cock twitching and leaking at the tip. When she looked up into his eyes with hungry blues he had to bite the inside his mouth to keep from spilling. Gods she was so beautiful kneeling before him only dressed in her underwear. Her hair was still braided down her back making it perfect for him to watch her take him into her mouth.
Her swollen belly was bare to his eyes as well and he noticed it had grown again over the past week since they had been home. Now looking roughly seven months along he thought it was the sexiest thing he had ever seen. Even though she'd only been pupped for little over three months he couldn't help but feel proud. Her body was holding up well considering how many she carried and with everything she had gone through. She was more than he could have ever hope for in a mate.
Having her submitting to him after he betrayed her was indescribable. That is of course until her coral pink lips took him into her mouth and he heard her moan in pleasure. He could feel her tongue stroking along with her lips and he moaned when she pulled and sucked in a steady rhythm. Knowing she was getting horny while pleasuring him stirred him on even more. It was sexy as hell watching her suck his cock. He purred when he heard her moan against his shaft and take a little more of him in.
"That's it baby." Sesshomaru panted as he threaded his fingers into her bangs and gently rocked against her mouth to show her how he liked it. Feeling her sucking a little more he quickened the pace and rolled against her mouth. He loved how tight her lips felt against him and the feeling of her tongue twirling and stroking as she sucked. It made his eyes roll into the back of his head and ache for more. "Relax your throat and let me go deeper."
Hearing his growls and moans of pleasure and sensing his approaching end, Kagome did as her alpha asked and relaxed her throat. When his cock sank deep into her throat he threw his head back and growled. Hearing him grunting and groaning in bliss as she sucked his head made her womanhood grow hot. Needing some relief she into her wet panties and stroked her aching pussy. As she parted her pedals she quickly fisted three fingers into herself and pumped in time with his hips. Needing more she curled her fingers inside and hit over her favorite spot.
She moaned against his cock when her pleasure heighten to new levels. She felt powerful pleasuring her mate like this. It was so rare to see him come undone and knowing her touch made him feel like this only made her inner coil tighten. Having smelled her arousal and feeling her excitement in their bond Sesshomaru opened his eyes and looked down at his bitch. He groaned when he saw his cock disappearing in and out of her mouth and her saliva mixed with some of his seed dripping down her chin.
Even with her throat relaxed he couldn't fit in all the way. He growled in approval when her little fist curled around the base and stroked it in time with her sweet lips stretched around his girth. When she needed to breath she licked up and down his head and nibbled on his inner thigh and hipbone. When she buried her face into his fur she moaned in pleasure sending vibrating sensations up his cock. When she took him back into her mouth and sank as deep as she could go it made his skin prickle with goosebumps and a chill to run down his spine. When he saw her touching herself however, his cock thickened making her groan.
"Cum with me Bitch." Sesshomaru's inner beast growled huskily as they watched her stroke herself in time with his cock. "Suck me good and hard. Take all of your Alpha!"
Hearing her alpha's demands she sucked harder against his thrusts making him howl. Cupping his sack she kneaded and stroked it in time with his cock. It felt heavy in her hand and tightened with each roll of his hips. Hearing him moan and watching him shudder through her hooded eyes as he lost himself to her torture was her undoing. As she cried against his cock her juices ran down her legs. Seeing his bitch cum snapped his strings. He moaned as his sack lifted in her hand and spilt into her beautiful mouth.
As his hot seed flooded her mouth Kagome eagerly drank him all up. He tasted salty and musky. It tingled with his demonic energy and was warm going down her soar throat. She loved it and cleaned him thoroughly as he panted for breath above her like an old man. She knew he'd not planned on being as rough with her as he'd been but as always their love making got the better of them. She was proud to have pleased him in such a way. She was his bitch and no one should see him in such a vulnerable state.
[End Lemon]
By the passion reflecting in his hooded gaze and the tenderness expressed on his face she knew he'd thoroughly enjoyed himself. With the amount of seed he'd spilt there was no way he could deny it. She wasn't surprised the power of his release knocked the wind out of him. The intensity of it nearly had her releasing again. Being pregnant had her in a nearly 24 hour horny state. Thankfully her horney dog was more than willing to help. Having cleaned him of his release she nuzzled into his soft fur along his cock and took in a deep breath of his woodsy musk.
"Are you pleased my Lord?" Kagome asked as she looked up into her mate's hooded gaze.
"Very." Sesshomaru panted as he cupped her cheek in his hand. "It pleases this one to know you do not find this form of rutting degrading."
"Never for you." Kagome purred as she nuzzled into his hand. "You are my love… and I enjoy pleasing you as you do me. Should you desire it again I am more than willing to comply. I find it pleasurable as well."
"Hn." Sesshomaru hummed in contentment as he cupped her other cheek. "Are you well enough to bathe?"
"Yeah, but you'll have to help me up again." Kagome blushed.
"Ah yes…" Sesshomaru smirked as he knelt down. "My beautiful beach ball."
"Shut up." Kagome pouted earning a husky chuckle.
Having helped his mate up off of the floor he took her hand in his and led her towards their bathing chambers. As Sesshomaru inspected the tub Kagome peaked into Lorenzo's room. Finding him still deep in sleep Kagome closed his bathing room door and set the two towels she'd grabbed earlier along the wall. Sesshomaru settled with his back against the tub offered his hand and helped guide her in. With her back against his chest they helped each other bathe the sweat and sandy grime away. As they relaxed in the tub the warm water soaked into Kagome's aching muscles.

"This is nice." Kagome sighed as she relaxed against his chest.
"Perhaps a warm bath would do you good till the end of your pregnancy?" Sesshomaru suggest as he rubbed his hand over her baby bump.
"It'll spoil me if I do that." Kagome giggled making him chuckle. "I am carrying six little pups though. Who knows what my body will need by the time I'm ready to deliver."
"I spoke with Daija about the water elemental." Sesshomaru said as he built a small amount of energy into his fingers and fed it to his pups.
"Really?!" Kagome gasped in surprise. "Did the elemental agree to help?"
"She did." Sesshomaru said earning a giant smile from his mate. "She is to arrive in one week's time from Iceland."
"Ooo I'm so excited." Kagome said as she wiggled in his lap. "What room do want her to stay in?"
"Seeing how the Royal wing is under construction we could offer her the adjoining suite Louie and Elizabeth stayed in?" Sesshomaru suggested.
"That sounds good." Kagome nodded as she looked at her slightly pruned fingers. "Are you ready to get out?"
"Hn." Sesshomaru nodded as he helped his mate out of the tub before getting out himself. Seeing Kagome try to stifle a yawn as she dried herself off with her towel he sighed and shook his head. "You have worn yourself out today. Perhaps it is best we go straight to bed?"
"But what about our deal?" Kagome pouted as Sesshomaru dried himself off.
"Rain check?" Sesshomaru suggested as tossed the towel into the hamper and dug out a pair of boxers. "I can sense you're exhaustion and I too am well enough to turn in."
"You sure you don't mind?" Kagome asked as she slipped on her nightgown and pulled back to covers.
"We have a long life together little mermaid. Plenty of time to make up for it." Sesshomaru chuckled as he cuddled under the covers with her before kissing her lips. With her growing bump nestled between them he sighed and nuzzled his nose into her hair.
"Our pups are quite rowdy tonight." Kagome giggled as she enjoyed the slight fluttering feeling inside her womb. "I imagine we will be able to feel them kick soon."
"What does it feel like?" Sesshomaru asked as he rubbed over her bump.
"Like I ate a bunch of bugs and they are flying around inside." Kagome giggled when she saw Sesshomaru look at her in surprise. "It doesn't hurt I promise. It's just... a little weird I guess. They tend to move the most when I stop moving."
"Hn." Sesshomaru hummed as he thought about what she said. "Perhaps when you walk it rocks them to sleep?"
"Maybe?" Kagome shrugged as she closed her eyes and snuggled into his embrace. "Goodnight Sess."
"Goodnight mate." Sesshomaru purred as he pulled the sheet up a little higher and soon followed her in sleep.
[Rome, Italy]
"You can't be serious daddy!" Sara shouted angrily.
"The Bishop was very serious my dear." Barron Garcia sighed as he melted some wax over an envelope before sealing it with his family crest's stamp. "I know you desire to see your son but with everything going on right now a visit wouldn't be wise."
"Like my ex-husband would hold me hostage!" Sara growled as she tossed her hat on the sofa in the corner. "He wouldn't do that to me! Our son is still too young to be without me!"
"Lorenzo's new step-mother from what I've been told has been taking excellent care of him." Barron Garcia said as he handed the servant his letter and sent him on his way.
"He already married her?" Sara shrieked making the Barron's ears ring. "When did this happen?!"
"From the rumor mill he mated her the night they arrived in Valencia." Barron Garcia corrected making Sara gasp in disbelief.
"M-mated?!" Sara gapped as she sank into her seat across from his desk. "I... I had hoped that... that he'd come back for me."
"My dear…" Barron Garcia sighed as he looked at his dejected daughter. "I know it is hard to accept but He never…"
"No!" Sara shouted in denial. "I don't believe it! You weren't there daddy these past 15 years! I know he can be cold and stand offish but he loved me in his own way! He told me he loved me!"
"Only when under your spell." Barron Garcia argued silencing Sara from her retort. "I am sorry my dear but it is time to move on."
"Then I demand my son to be brought to me! I am his mother and being human I will live a shorter life than him. Sesshomaru will have many years with our son. Lorenzo should be with me until I die!" Sara yelled as tears rolled down her cheeks. "He is my son damn it! Not hers!"
"We will look into it as soon as the war has settled. We don't want to risk them completely closing the boarder on us and never being allowed to see Lorenzo again." Barron Garcia cautioned as he got up from his seat and brought his sobbing daughter into his arms. "Everything will work out… you'll see."
"You said that when I got married." Sara snapped as she pushed out of her father's arms. "Now look at me! I'm a divorced woman that no one wants to marry. Don't think I haven't heard you and the Bishop talking. I know it to be true!"
"Sara…" Barron Garcia soothed as he tried to bring her back into his arms.
"Don't Sara me daddy! I know what I heard! I know you blame yourself for what has happened to me and the Bishop says I've become a burden. Well, I refuse to hide in the shadows anymore!" Sara growled as hot tears continued to roll down her cheeks. "Lorenzo is my son and if I don't get rights to him in some way very soon I will take matters into my own hands."
"Sara you don't mean…" Barron Garcia gasped at the implication of what she was saying.
"I'll do it!" Sara warned as she picked up her hat off of the sofa in the corner and made her way towards the office door. "You best get to work retrieving my son or else you will not only risk never seeing him again but me as well."
With that Sara retched open the door, stormed out into the hallway and slammed it behind her leaving her father alone in his office. Extremely troubled by what his daughter had just threatened to do Barron Garcia sank into his office chair and ran his hands over his face. When a knock was sounded at the door he called for them to enter.
"Lord Barron?" the servant asked as he cracked the door open." The Bishop is here and he wishes to see you."
"Send him in." Barron Garcia said as he quickly straightened up his desk and his uniform.
"Yes, Sir." The servant nodded as he opened the door to allow the Bishop to enter the study.
"That was a quick response to my letter." Barron Garcia chuckled as he shook the Bishop's hand.
"My carriage was actually on the way here when your messenger boy spotted us. I looked over your letter and I have to agree, it is a good solution." the Bishop said as he took his seat across from the Barron.
"She's been declining quite rapidly I'm afraid. Just minutes ago she threatened to take matters into her own hands." Barron Garcia grumbled in annoyance.
"What were her demands upon the subject?" the Bishop asked.
"She desires for Prince Lorenzo to live here at the Palace until she dies. Her argument is that Lord Sesshomaru and his new mate will live longer than her and are taking her rights away as his human mother." Barron Garcia said.
"I do not have an issue with this decree. I do fear however, that the boy will not come willingly now that he has a pack." the Bishop cautioned as he reclined into his seat and crossed his fingers together in his lap. "Knowing Sesshomaru he's likely brainwashed the boy into believing he's got to protect his new mother and siblings."
"Siblings?" the Barron frowned. "Lady Kagome is expecting more than one?"
"Unfortunately." the Bishop grumbled. "Apparently the water demon holds six little buns in the oven."
"S-Six?!" Barron Garcia stuttered. "No wonder the bastard wanted to leave my daughter! She's a bread baking factory!"
"Yes…" the Bishop sneered in disgust. "We'll need to insure Lorenzo's safety more than ever now that there are pure blooded replacements on the way. This is another reason I think bringing him here would be wise. Should Lorenzo die we will no longer hold ties to the Spanish crown and the first born son of this new litter will become king."
"What do you propose then?" Barron Garcia asked.
"To maintain your daughter's sanity we will need to send her to the monastery. Away from the stress of war and political obligations she can cleanse her soul of impurities. Once cleansed and mentally stable again she can return home were we can once again try and marry her off. While she is away we can make plans to intercept the prince. If Spain denies our demands we will take military action and kidnap the boy." the Bishop said. "I would prefer to avoid this last option considering it will traumatize him but if smuggling him back to Rome becomes necessary we will do whatever it takes."
"When do you plan to send our request?" Barron Garcia asked.
"As soon as your daughter is on her way to the monastery. Should she discover Lorenzo is coming here she will fight us on leaving." the Bishop cautioned. "Once she is safely in the mountains I will send a small unit to the border to send off the message."
"Very good." Barron Garcia said as he poured them a cup of coffee. "I will speak with my wife this evening and make plans for Sara's departure. Which monastery are you planning on sending her to?"
"Saint Martha's in Switzerland." the Bishop said as he accepted the warm beverage. "Thank you."
"You are welcome." Barron Garcia said as he took a sip of his coffee. "What kind of treatment will she be receiving there and what safety measures will be in place?"
"The monastery is hidden deep in the mountains. The roads are difficult to travel unless guided by a local. I can assure you that she will be safe there. As for her treatment, she will be focusing her time on meditation to control her unbalanced emotions. Her main focus will be processing her anger and bitterness. She will also participate in the monasteries daily chores and worship services. It is my hope she will learn some humility before the gods and reassess her self-worth."
"Very good." Barron Garcia nodded in approval. It hadn't been he or his wife's intention, but Sara had been spoiled over the years and it was about time she came to realize the world did not revolve around her. "What will she need to pack for her journey?"
"Warm clothing since she will be staying up in the mountains. The monastery will request the items to be humble in appearance. Meaning there won't be need for accessories or frivolous fashion. They tend to ware neutral colors so their focus is on the gods and not upon themselves." the Bishop explained. "I will warn you. She will not receive special treatment. Your daughter will come back a changed woman my friend. I pray it will be for the better."
"As do I." Barron Garcia agreed. "Thank you for investing so deeply into my family's affairs."
"Of course. It is my pleasure and duty to serve." the Bishop smiled as he set his coffee cup down on the desk and got up from his chair. "I'm afraid I must be going. When your daughter is on her way to Switzerland send for me. I will return to your home and we will make plans to retrieve the Prince."
"It shall be done." Barron Garcia said as he shook the Bishop's hand goodbye.
Later that night the Barron spoke with his wife and together they made plans to send off their daughter. When all was ready to go and the carriage was loaded they spoke with their daughter. As expected she was very upset and had to be forced into the carriage. To Sara's disappointment five guards attended her upon her journey to the monastery. As her carriage took her by the Palace gates she spat her displeasure to the heavens and cursed the Bishop and all of Rome.
She prayed for their downfall and for all to feel her wrath in keeping her away from her son. Seeing their daughter in such a barbaric manor was very unsettling and the Barron had to hold his wife back from freeing their daughter from her mobile holding cell. Had the Barron truly investigated were he was sending his daughter however, he would have reconsidered. For it was not a monastery Sara was being sent to… but an asylum for troubled women.
