The Crimson Clan

How You Ask?

    "You want to know how I met your father and his friends, huh?" I ask my daughter as she nods her head excitedly. "Heh, well it is a pretty epic tale.  You think you can handle it?"

"Yes mom! Please?!" She chirped. Her missing front tooth and the bandaid I just put on her right cheek due to a nasty cut she got from Rin's familiar, Kuro.  I shook my head and poked the bandaid, "ow!! Mooooom!!!"

I chuckle, "I think you've had enough excitement for today. Uncle Rin still feels bad for that nasty scratch you got from Kuro!" I sigh and ruffle her hair gently. She pouted, but didn't protest as I tuck her into her bed.  Time to clean up dinner, again. Groaning as I walk into the kitchen to see the mess it became, "If I knew being the lady of the house and a mother would lead to this, I wouldn't have chosen it ya know."

My husband's chuckle reaches my ears and I can feel his arms wrap around my smaller frame, " I know, but I'm glad you chose it."  He squeezes me a bit more and let me do my work. To my surprise, he helps me.

"I'm surprised though, dear, you're normally at the Vatican by now," I drop the dishes in the soapy water as it clinks in our sink, "Is the case over?"

"Yeah we settled things with that rouge wyvern.  Nothing too dangerous turns out the construction was too close to a nest," my husband the exorcist, "How are things with the clan?"

"As good as a bunch of noobs can be. It got irritating today. Not much to say about that just the same old shit as always." I sigh finishing the dishes. I turn around in his arms and pat his chest, "Let's get some rest, Darling."

"Mm~...can't we have a little fun first? It's been so long..." he feigns a pout as I sighed in frustration.

"Babe, I would love to. But unfortunately our daughter is a very light ass sleeper..." I grumble as both of us groan hearing her call from the other room to ask for warm milk.
