Family addition

Dad appeared, making good time and maybe a bit more worried than Kotori had planned.  He’d skip the hi dad or guilty look and get straight to the point just as much as he did.  “Urgent, not bad, excellent news.  I assumed you’d want to be the first I called.  Meet my mate,” Kotori turned his head from his dad to Ochitsuki, giving her a small smile before back at his father.

“Ochitsuki Ishii” It felt as if it had taken forever to find a woman who met all the requirements Kotori had set up to be his perfect queen.  “You won’t find another woman anywhere as fine as Ochi, I know, I spent a long time looking.”

“And Ochi, meet my father, Sirius Fatalis, and Warlord of the Armada.  He does a good job looking tough but around family, he’s a softy, especially with pups.”  Possessive was another word that came to mind but this would do for now.

Hopefully, the surprise and upfront explanation was enough to make his dad forget the urgent rush to get here.  Anyway, Dad would consider it important as well.
