9 Chapter Nine

Kagura was dressed in a refined and extravagant dress gifted to her by Masamune. The dress exposed her beautiful ivory shoulders as her braided hair fell down her back.

Looking at her Masamune felt he could watch her for eternity and never get sick of it. A white muslin veil covered half her face however it could not hide her otherworldly beauty.

Masamune was dressed in a white robe appearing like a celestial, his hair fell loosely around his shoulders. His countenance was already so handsome, when he adorned white clothing he seemed as though he was unaffected by worldly affairs. Completely different from his usual overbearing aura as the Demon King.

Masamune's men guarded the carriage, he knew Kagura did not like being watched closely and with him around he would not allow any harm come to her.

He led her out by the hand, Kagura no longer minded his small affectionate actions as her eyes wandered.

The two stood out like fish out of water, it couldn't be helped with such tall height.

The women sent envious gazes towards the beauty beside him, but his eyes were set only on her as though she were the only woman in the world. The two radiated regal elegance and noble auras.

Kagura had her eyes set on a stall selling dango, "What is this?" she asked the stall owner curiously.

The man was momentarily at a loss for words facing the two. She listened to the man intently with a nod. A large hand swooped over her and bought a set for her to eat.

Her eyes shined with approval as she savoured the street food praising the man behind the stall, it was delicious.

Masamune watched her with a smile. Seeing that he was staring so intently she had thought he wanted some.

"Eat" When she inched closer to him, pushing the dango into his hand he was happy she thought of him. He could not dare to reject his cute wife and ate the dango from her hand. Kagura didn't think much of it and continued to eat.

They continued to look at each stall with entwined hands.

Masamune helped her light the lantern before letting it it go. The starry night filled with lighted lanterns was a magnificent sight to behold.

Kagura turned around and unbeknownst to her, she had a smiling expression that outshone even the stars leaving Masamune star struck.

"I had a wonderful time," Kagura tilted her head to see the man close his eyes and fist with reddened ears. He was struggling to resist the urge to kiss her.

She was always beautiful even her cold face but when she smiled it made his mind go blank and his heart rate speed up.

"Let's do it again"

Kagura nodded her head. This may as well be her first and last time going to a festival. Her smiling expression disappeared in an instant, causing one to doubt their sight.
