[TAMIKO]
King Zaffuto was a strangely happy man, given the current circumstances. He had found his son and had seen Tamiko be happiest with Kosta. He had seen his son be ready to fight wars for the Lycan chief and that was something that even he had to appreciate.
He had never imagined it would be possible and yet his son was here redefining everything. Oh, he was proud. However, even in his pride, the king knew he needed to protect his son.
Sure, Tamiko would let the skies fall before he went easy on his father, but that was just a risk Zaffuto had to take. He had reminded himself over and again that he deserved every expressive rage from his son and he wasn't going to deflect.
His son deserved better and he would see to it.
"You don't have to do this, Kaito. I'm fine with being whatever in your life. Hell, I'm fine if you want to deny me in front of the entire realm. I only worry that this might not be what you want, and I already fucked up once.
