love me // ᴋɴʏ [might discontinue]

cнapтer 3 // ᴜɴᴇᴅɪᴛᴇᴅ

At night, Muzan crawled up from the couch. Ah yes, his REAL wife punished him. He was sent outside with a pillow to go and sleep in the couch all because of reacting. Anyways, he knows it's because of hormones.... Or so he thought.

"Mu-chan, come here." A tired looking [Y/N] came out from their shared bedroom, calling out his nickname

Of course she knew he was creeping to their bedroom and her conscience is eating up on her too. She's just childish in her current pregnancy.

He gently wrapped his arms around her wideeee waist, "What is it?" He whispered while leading her back to bed

"I can't sleep." She whines

The demon softly smiled - a thing he thought he could never do genuinely in his lifetime.

He continued to lead her to their bed. Both of them plopped down the soft mattress. [Y/N] lied on his chest and hugged his waist while Muzan gently caress her long locks.

"Mu-chan?" She suddenly called

He hummed in response "Hm?"

"I love you...." The woman whispered before falling asleep

The man kiss her forehead, "I love you too, wife...." Was all he said before he closed his eyes, snuggling closer to her warmth

"Are you sure about that, Oyakata-sama?" Sanemi asked

He was the very first one to recover from the shocking revelation. The others are still frozen to the news of Ubuyashiki and that woman's past.

Kagaya nods and pulled out a picture from his kimono. He kept that picture even after their break up and his marriage.

"A long time ago, I met this beautiful woman in the meadows. She was practicing her swordsmanship." He averted his none existent gaze (Am I rude?)

"[Y/N] was such a hot blooded person even in our youth, but to me, she's gentler and kinder. Perhaps she pitied me." He sighed

Amane, who's a mother to his kids and a wife to him, just listened to his story. Wondering what kind of person her husband loved before her.

Mitsuri, the love pillar, found herself, still interested in this love story, as well as the other hashiras. Their minds filled with so many things.

"She is a rebellious young lady from a foreign family, as what you've seen from her looks. Her family has a very old lineage of swordsman that's not part of the demon slayers. As a child, she doesn't fancy any things that her fellow girls want. She rejected her parents pleas of learning how to become a proper lady. She detested the tiniest spec of feminity and she swore to be like her brothers and father, much to their dismay. But they still actually lived happily." He smiled "That was before an incident happened." It fell down as soon as the lines were spoken

"What do you mean, Oyakata-sama?" Shinobu asked

Kagaya dropped his head low, "A group of demons infiltrated their estate, killing a huge number of their people, including her parents and brothers."

"Oh my!"

"As the times passed by, people noticed her drastic changes, specially me. Her lust for power and strenght turned her into a different person, and so, I, became further from her. I just felt like, I never really knew who she was."

"That was when I knew.......

We are slowly falling apart."
