Chapter 1044: Asking for Permission

Still seated between Kaiden’s knees on the bench in his room, Yunohana glanced toward the door Nyx had closed behind herself.

His five women were somewhere beyond it. She would have to look them in the eyes and explain why she wanted to borrow their man.

"When should we speak with them?"

Kaiden followed her gaze.

"How about now?"

"!!"

Yunohana twisted toward him, clutching the front of her robe to her chest.

"Now? I have only just agreed!"

"I know."

"I need to prepare myself mentally. There are five of them. Five women who love you very much, whom I must somehow ask to allow me to..."

She looked down at his hands resting over her robe.

"Oh, this is terribly improper."

Kaiden eased his arm away so she could turn more comfortably.

"We could ask tonight, get some sleep, and spend tomorrow together. We’re both going to need a day to recover anyway. I thought we might enjoy it."

Yunohana considered that with her lips pressed together.

She could spend an entire day with him as the woman he wanted to court. She could look forward to his attention, choose somewhere she wanted to take him, and know he was coming because he wanted to be with her.

The prospect made her happy enough to frighten her.

"Tomorrow is very soon," she whispered.

"We could leave it until later," he offered.

Yunohana considered the escape he was offering. She could find a perfectly respectable responsibility to hide behind tomorrow, and another the day after that.

"No."

Kaiden waited while she shook her head.

"That would be me chickening out."

His mouth twitched at her choice of words.

"I’d hate to interfere with your duties."

"You have been doing so since you arrived. I believe I can spare you one more day."

Kaiden raised an eyebrow, grinning. "Eh? What happened to my amazing hostess who’s been treating me like a god since I arrived?"

Yunohana’s anxiety shifted into slyness. "You were my honorable guest until now. Now, you’re a man trying to court me."

"Ah." Kaiden sighed. "So my pampering rights have suddenly disappeared."

Yunohana giggled at that, then tilted her head. "I’m getting mixed signals over here. Are you interested in me as a woman or as a gentle caretaker?"

Kaiden wasted no time. He stared deep into her eyes and decreed, "Both. Both is good."

The shrine maiden’s eyes widened as a little yelp left her lungs. "I’m not sure I understand..."

Kaiden’s eyes held zero uncertainty as he replied. "I wish to pursue you, a mature yet delicate woman, romantically so that, among other things, you can pamper me."

Then his confidence receded, the relaxed Kaiden returning with a soft smile. "Of course, I’d also pamper you in return. If things work out, you’d be treated as any of the other five lovers of mine, meaning I’d dedicate my everything to you.

"You don’t have to worry about me becoming a deadbeat loser that wants you to do everything for him."

"..." The Japanese milf was lost for words. "That’s very straightforward... In this country we approach romance rather differently."

"Well... It came up and I didn’t want to lie to you." Kaiden shrugged.

"I see... It came up, hm?" Yunohana smiled despite the nervous flutter in her stomach.

Tomorrow, she would have him to herself. She wanted that far too much to let him offer her another way out.

Yunohana drew her robe over her right shoulder, then carefully worked her sore arm into the other sleeve. Kaiden helped lift the fabric behind her, keeping it clear of the tender spot.

"Thank you," she murmured, fastening the robe.

He offered his hand as she turned and brought her feet to the floor. She accepted it, stood beside the bench, and faced him with all the seriousness she could gather.

"I shall ask your wives for their blessing tonight, and tomorrow I shall go on a date with you should they permit me to."

Her cheeks were soft pink.

Kaiden was suddenly faced with an overwhelming urge to kiss them. The determination on her face made it very difficult to remember that they still had an important conversation to get through first.

But he held his instincts back, instead standing with her. Yunohana immediately reached for his arm.

"Careful."

"I am."

"Are you?" She gave him a reproachful look.

"Sometimes."

"..." Yunohana kept hold of his arm as they approached the door together.

...

Outside his room, Aria crossed the adjoining sitting room with a towel draped over her shoulders. The damp ends of her silver hair clung to her clean robe. She was still tying its sash when Nyx stepped in front of Kaiden’s door.

"Oh, yandere bestie. How was the bath?"

"Lovely. How is Kai?"
