Kagura's eyes fluttered open, if one looked closely they would notice her eyes widened by 3mm. She was startled by the sight of a bare chest in front of her face, this was not the first thing she imagined to greet first thing in the morning.

She was secured tightly in place by the large hand wrapped around her waist. Masamune felt her movements on the bed and stirred from his slumber.

The eye bags under his eyes were visibly darker, it is a good thing his wife did not move much when she sleeps...he felt restless enough as it is.

"Good morning" her melodic voice reached his ears, he smiled lazily at her wanting to indulge in her warmth a little longer.

"Can we stay like this?...just a little bit longer" he asked in a muffled tone, already bringing her figure closer to him completely forgetting about last nights matter.

Kagura willingly let him do as he pleased, it wasn't bad like this...she wanted to thank the heavens for sending him her way, he has given her a reason, a new purpose and hope to live.

He buried his head into her shoulder, Kagura's light peony scent tickled his nose.

It's strange how in just these few years how much of an impact she has had on him, before he would have never thought that he would love a woman or anyone on that matter. Let alone a woman as mysterious and sweet at heart as her, everywhere she goes her natural peony fragrance lingers.

Oddly enough he finds comfort in her scent, it puts his mind at ease just knowing she is there.

Enjoying this moment of intimacy, Masamune suddenly came to the realisation that his wife was still naked under his robe he wrapped around her.

Kagura was a little taken back by his abrupt movement to sit up, tilting her head to the side in confusion she spoke quizzically "Masamune?"

Seeing his face change colour from white to red to white amused her somewhat, she smugly tried to crawl over to him intending to play with him but he hastily threw the blanket over her head blocking her field of vision.

"..." Kagura effortlessly moved the blanket, she had been wondering why she felt weird and soon discovered the reason being she was naked...the end of her lips curved into a smile.

It wasn't difficult for her to guess what happened and how she ended up like this.

He carried her out of the bath last night attempting to use his own body temperature in hopes to alleviate the pain and excruciating cold she suffered from.

"T-that...I'll let you get changed" Kagura's bell like laughter could be heard by the servants outside, invoking curiosity from them who wondered what the Master said was so funny that the icy Madame would let out such tender laughter.

Fresh out of the bath and dressed in a purple orchid kimono with her wet hair loose, she casually walked towards the bed side where Masamune waited for her, his previous embarrassed expression now neutral.

Kagura loved being pampered by Masamune, it had slowly become a habit for her to have him dry her hair since the first time he did so.
