Kenshin entered the room as swiftly as possible. His wife lay before him, defiantly looking better then she had the last time he had seen her alive. Her eyes were closed, and though her face was pale it still had a flush to it. Her small chest rose up and down as she took in breath, her hair had fallen loose from her ponytail and laid scattered about her, like drops of dark dew on the grass in the early morning. Sweat matted her face and brow, showing just how tired she was. But to Kenshin's great joy and happiness, she opened her eyes. They were hazy at first, staring at nothing, then they focused. The blue color he had come to love sharpened when they landed on him.

"I knew I sensed your presence Kenshin," Kaoru said softly. Kenshin stood still for a moment, simply admiring her. She was so beautiful, so vibrant and full of love. He couldn't get enough of her, she was like a drug and he was hopelessly addicted. Within three steps Kenshin was by her side.

"You're alive," Kenshin whispered, his voice was broken with many emotions. Carefully, he scooped her face up in his hands.

"Why wouldn't I be?" Kaoru asked with a grin, lighting her whole face up. Kenshin couldn't help, even in her condition. He lowered his face to hers and drilled his lips into hers. Kaoru gasped at his sudden intensity, one minute he was so calm and the next, did she spot amber in his eyes? Thoughts soon fled from her mind. Her body was on fire, craving for his touch, and w hen he finally did touch her body would only ache for more. Her blood felt like it was on fire, burning as it coursed through her body; a pleasant sensation.

"Kenshin!" Megumi stood in the corner, fuming. "This is exactly why I didn't want to let you in the room! Kaoru is still recovering so keep your pants on!" Kenshin pulled away and blushed sheepishly; his eyes once again were Lavender and light.

"I am sorry Miss Megumi that I am!" Kenshin looked down at Kaoru, a blush had spread over her cheeks, but a smile still was brightly lit on her face.

Kenshin sat outside of the dojo, his darling son in his lap. A few weeks had gone by, and Kenshin felt like he had just looked at his son for the first time since he had entered the world.

'Now,' Kenshin thought happily as he tickled his infant son. 'I can truly enjoy being a father.' Strangely enough, Kenshin felt no guilt, no remorse for destroying a man's life so violently, for going back on his vow.

'You did it for Kaoru, you did it for your wife,' Kenshin's darker side told him. 'She deserves life more than that man.' Though Kenshin didn't completely agree with that point of view, nothing affected him. All he felt was joy coursing through his whole being as his son squealed and giggled in his arms.

"How are my two favorite boys?" Kaoru came behind Kenshin and draped her arms around his neck while she rested her body against his. Kenshin sighed happily and leaned into Kaoru; turning his head slightly to kiss her cheek lovingly.

"I believe," Kaoru slowly and seductively slid her arms down Kenshin's chest to their child. "It's Kenji's bedtime!" Kaoru snatched the baby from Kenshin, causing him to shriek happily. Kaoru rested the small child against her shoulder, gently patting his back. The baby immediately settled down and started to mew in his sleep. Turning, Kaoru brought the baby to the room where he slept. Kenshin watched after her, for a moment, before picking himself up and following. He waited until Kaoru put their child to sleep, then as she left the room he snuck up on her.

"Don't do that!" Kaoru hissed quietly as she bumped into his chest, clutching her heart in freight.

"Excuse me," Kenshin gently reached down and grasped Kaoru's wrists in his hands. "But I believe we are long overdue a night to ourselves."

"But," Kaoru gasped slightly, surprised at her husbands aggressiveness. "Everything one is here, we could wake them."

"I believe," Kenshin lower his head to whisper in Kaoru's ear. 'That before you became pregnant we were becoming quite the masters of being quiet during the hour of complication. Maybe it's time to take that skill up again, hmm?" Kenshin's breath in Kaoru's ear caused the hair on the back of her neck to rise. His breath felt warm as it lightly tickled her ear and ran down her neck. Something deep within Kaoru stirred, rising to her stomach and causing a warm sensation to flow over her.

"It was a fine art," Kaoru's voice was sluggish, spilling over her lips in a slurred fashion.

"That's right Koishii," Kenshin lowered his face to rest in her nape, breathing in deeply. "Not many could do it in such a high quality style as you and I." Kenshin planted an opened mouth kiss on her neck, taking his time, tasting her slowly and sensuously. Kaoru felt her knees turn to jelly and she sagged against him. Kenshin wrapped his arms around her, leading the way to their bedroom. He set her on the ground so he could roll out the futon. Kaoru's eyes watched him as he did so, taking him in, drinking the sight of him like a fine wine. Kenshin turned to her and held out his hand to her, his eyes pleading with her, begging her to go to him. Kaoru stifled a gasp, Kenshin's eyes were amber, dark and full of emotions that made him seem more dangerous to her. Despite that, Kaoru inched forward and placed her hand in his. Immediately on contact Kenshin pulled Kaoru to him and locked her lips with his. One hand crushed her body to his while his other one went through her hair, crushing her ponytail in the process. With a clever twist of his body, Kenshin pinned Kaoru down on their futon. His lips left her to travel across her chin and down her neck. He nipped at her neck and gently licked it while his hands slid her kimono down. Soon Kaoru only had her bindings to cover her, which Kenshin soon removed. Somehow, Kenshin had removed all his clothes without Kaoru's knowing. Kenshin sat up, taking her in with his eyes, before he lowered his hands to rest on her well-toned stomach. He began to rub her flat tummy, which had gone down amazingly fast after her pregnancy. Kenshin continued to rub, until his hands slid up to stroke her more rounded flash. Kaoru cried out was sounded to be his name, but quietly so only Kenshin could hear. Soon, Kenshin lowered his mouth to where his hands were to take her in. Kaoru arched below him, allowing him to take her in even more. Kenshin knew he was going agonizingly slow, but he was going to enjoy this night, he had waited so long for it, to long.

I know this was kind of short (which all of my chapters are) but it was shorted than usual. I'm not much of a lemon writer so this was hard for me.
