The One Bathed in White (DxD)

Breaking Chains

"Y-Y/N...she's your child...she's our child."

Y/N shifted on his feet, sweat falling down his temple. Next to him stood a Yasaka whose emotions were in a whirlpool. Waves of happiness, sadness mixing together to create a fox who was both wagging her tale and had a few tears in her eyes. She had been waiting for this moment for so long. When her family would be united, perhaps she could even get Y/N to stay...

Y/N felt the same, a mixture of heartache and anger coursing through him. But he also felt feelings he hadn't felt in a long time...failure...fear. He had failed Yasaka, he had failed his own daughter.

His father had failed him and now he was failing Kunou. He hadn't been there for either of them all because of his stupid fucking jealousy and obsession with a bitch who didn't want him.

"God dammit! I'm such an idiot!"

That was where the anger came from. He was pissed at himself for being an idiot. Angry that he had let his own heartache and love for Venelana stop him from being there for his daughter and Yasaka.

Fear came from the fact that he didn't know what came next. Would Kunou reject him. Would he not be able to be there for her, not be able to care for her. So many questions, so many worries, so much fear.

"Kunou, could you open the door. There's someone I want you to meet."

"One second mom!"

Yasaka said softly through the wooden door, Kunou answering back quickly. The two parents waited patiently by the door, both anxious in their own way. Their silence interrupted by a red glow which permitted through the room, Y/N's hand symbol glowing a dull pulsing red waiting for him to answer the call of his King.

Seeing it Yasaka's emotions nosedived, sorrow filling her to the brim and replacing any sort of joy she had felt. Y/N loved Venelana and Yasaka knew no matter how much she tried Y/N would never be able to replace Venelana with her. He would never be able to put someone else first.

He had shown it hundreds of times throughout the years. Dropping everything just to run to her for whatever she needed. He was Venelana's dutiful hound and everyone knew it. It wasn't such a big deal to Yasaka when Y/N and Venelana had actually had a relationship, but after she had hurt her time and time again. After he had hurt himself and countless others running away from his pain, Yasaka grew hateful.

She hated Venelana for hurting Y/N, she hated Y/N for always running to Venelana anytime she needed him for something. She had hoped that once Y/N learned of Kunou he might have realized that there was more out there for him. That other people love and cared for him. But she was too late like always, Venelana has already sunk her claws into him again and Yasaka doubts that she would ever let him go again.

"You can leave."

"W-what?"

Y/N asked with confusion wondering why Yasaka was asking him to leave. Leave before he had gotten to see their daughter!

"I said you can leave!"

Yasaka turned towards Y/N with a glare, speaking harshly.

"What! Why would I leave!"

"Because I know you Y/N! I know your gonna answer he call and then go running off to Venelana! She has hurt you so many times and you just don't care!"

Yasaka yelled, huffing as she glared at Y/N. That was when both individuals heard the sound of a door open,

"M-mom?"

Kunou peaked out of the door looking at her mother with worry.

"What's going on?"
