Love and Happiness in the Hidden Realm

Summary:

Aoi was the happiest woman in the Hidden Realm...and it was all thanks to both her husband and her mate.

My personal confession: This fic was written because I honestly could not decide who I wanted Aoi to be with more - Ōdanna or Ginji! Therefore, I took the easy way out and simply chose both of them! 😉

Chapter 1: Prologue: Snug & Cozy

Chapter Text

Aoi slowly awakened in the Masters’ suite at Tenjin-ya.  Upon doing so, she realized the feelings of warmth and security that came so naturally from sleeping between both her husband and her mate were as wonderful and comforting that morning as they had been every single day since the three of them had first begun their unique relationship. 

Unique only by the Apparent Realm standards, Aoi mused sleepily, but not quite as strange here in the Hidden Realm.  Thank goodness!    

It was a very happy thought...and one the woman indulged in several times every day.  After all, she just could not believe how lucky she was!  On the current morning, however, Aoi felt that gratitude even more keenly than usual as she burrowed closer into Ginji's chest and further under the arm that he lightly rested across her shoulder.  At the same time, though, she also felt Ōdanna's heated breath on her neck as his strong arm automatically tightened around her from behind.   

Mmm...so warm, Aoi thought gleefully. In fact, I don’t think I could feel more snug and cozy even if I was a tube kitten.  

The human woman was wide awake by that time, but found that she had absolutely no desire to move from such a wonderfully comfortable position between the two Ayakashi men whom she cared about more than anything.  Instead, she just closed her eyes again and thought about all of the events that had brought her to the current point of peace and contentment.

After all, when she had first been abducted away from the Apparent Realm as a contract bride...and for quite a long time afterwards, as well...she had never even dreamed that such love and happiness would be possible in her personal future in the Hidden Realm.
