Chapter 2 – White power
The aroma of fresh coffee seeped through her thoughts just mere seconds before the pot started whistling.
Her eyes still unfocused as she sensed some great wave of white power move toward the front door.
She smiled, knowingly, even if demons were hard to find, due to their concealment spells and kitsune artifacts, a great pressure as that was could belong to one person only, the same that was kindly smiling at her in return from the little table next to the window.
"What brings you here, otoo-sama?" she asked pouring the fresh coffee in a teal colored mug, noticing the spark just above their brushing fingers
"I've just came to visit" was the quiet reply, his words mingled with the soft sound of the life outside, he gave a half grin "an old dog like me needs to rest his bones sometime."
She chuckled and he loved the sound of it, reminding him of days when she was just a toddler playing with his second son in the gardens, when his princess was still alive.
"It's on the house, Touga-sama" smiled her offering him a complete breakfast set, noticing the amused spark in his eyes, once again.
"I don't think I have to officially invite you to get you to my home once again, do I?" he manage to spit between bacon and eggs "Kikyo is due within the month" she seemed to sadden a bit, her entire posture became stiff
"I'll come visit when the child is born then, Touga-sama" her smile a little forced, now, she went back to the kitchens.
"Thank you, Kagome" whispered the old dog, leaving the money on the table, before disappearing into the comforting invisibility of the crowd outside.
