Kin

Tōga watched on in shock losing all merriment that he gained out of the miko landing in the water. Not that, she didn't have it coming and it did stop him from having to duel out his own form of punishment.
The whole situation had been quite amusing actually and he did let a small smirk play upon his lips until her family openly laughed at her predicament. That is what had ended his enjoyment; the complete disregard they had for their own kin was shocking.
Even his demon was up in arms about it; that had taken him aback; he hadn't expected it to want to act in her defense. He himself had felt bad for the girl as well but not to act in her defense.
But the thing that really got his attention was the small glimpse of hurt he saw in her eyes before it turned to anger. The betrayal she felt from her own family cut him deep and he refused to take part in it. Inu were very close by nature and one did not laugh at their own kin in front of outsiders.
He was pulled from his thoughts by a growl coming from the miko as she pushed past him, barely giving him a glance as she stomp past her family and back into the home. He didn't know whether to be impressed or irked. Impressed that she gave a very Inu like growl or irked that the human had ignored his very presence.
He let out an inaudible growl as he followed her in, heading for his guest room. What had started as getting her back had turned into his demon wanting to protect her from her family, him feeling her pain of betrayal and to end it all he was annoyed at her for ignoring him. This had not gone as planned.
