A/N: The chapter is emotional as you all reconcile. 18+ towards the end but, nothing crazy

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

After going back to the Rengoku household for some reason everyone agreed for you to stay with Tengen. Even Shinjuro. What a traitor.

"Don't give me that look darling, I know what I said." He gave you a grin ignoring your half playful, half serious indignant look. 

"Why do you think it was a good idea to stay with them?" You weren't mad per se about having to stay with them. You had no problem with Hinatsuru, Suma, and Tengen. It was Makio. You were not in the mood to bump heads with her and, she made the least amount of contact out of all of them. You knew how headstrong she was but, come on. Is she serious? 

"Because they love you and, you love them. Yes, you have your differences. Yes, they hurt you but, you truly have forgiven them enough even if you refuse to admit it out loud. Just admit it to yourself." Your mouth opened and, closed a few times trying to come up with a rebuttal but, you had none. For once you were silent. He was right. You were in love with them. It never did go away but, you were just so hurt by them. Yes, your lack of communication is partially to blame but, why did you have to communicate the neglect when they could have and, should have noticed your absence from the activities they engaged in?

"Do you think I gave them enough time?" You wanted a little guidance. You were young but, Shinjuro had more experience. Plus you loved him like a father. He turned to you beckoning you to come in for a hug. You did. He had an arm around your shoulders in a tight hug

"Only your heart can tell you. Even though we both know the answer." You sighed burying yourself more in his embrace. He was right. You did know the answer. You did love him. You loved all of them. You always have. Maybe by you living with them again can be the final push that all of you needed. 

"I am so not looking forward to crying." The two of you shared a laugh at that pulling away. He looked at you fondly patting your head, before just resting his hand there, comforting you in a way.

"That's what happens when you love someone or people in your case. You will laugh, cry, be sad, angry, disappointed, smile, and everything else under the sun. Love is not for the weak. It is for the strong. Only someone who has or is in love can truly understand and, appreciate the sacrifices one makes for each other." He poked you in the forehead letting his hand drift back to his side "I think this is exactly the push all five of you need to talk, to bond, to do whatever it is that needs to be done so you guys can be whole again." You looked at the man in awe. He was so different than who he was months ago. He has changed. The old, original Shinjuro was back for good.

"You truly are an amazing father." You smiled at his stunned look. "I hope I'll be back with good news to tell you, dad." You winked at him turning around to exit his room to go with Kyo. If you had turned back around you would have seen him wiping at his eyes with a soft smile. 

"I enjoyed your stay here! But, I guess it's time to be reunited with your beloveds! Don't be a stranger though. Our dad will be very upset." He smirked at you winking with his one good eye left. So he had heard you. Flustered that he heard you, you punched his arm forcing a hearty laugh out of him. It was nice. He had a nice laugh. 

"Y/N you're ready to go?" Hugging Kyo - Senjuro got one from you in the morning before he left for school- and, with a wave from everyone you were on Tengen's back and, the five you were walking back to the Estate. Your old home. It was going to be a long walk. You gave a breath getting comfy leaning against Tengen completely missing how his face lit up along with the women. 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

It was a long, peaceful walk. He didn't want to hurt you. He was holding you tenderly and, the way Hina was walking behind you pulling down your skirt every time it went up was...endearing. Tender. You looked over to see Suma would keep glancing at you giving you a smile grabbing your cheek. Then finally you looked to your left to watch Makio walking forward but, her hand never left yours. They cared. They all cared. Damn, you were going to hate that dreaded talk that all of you were going to have. 

"We are almost there." Tengen's voice was soft. Far from his boisterous, and dramatic flare it normally has. You kind of missed it. Finally, you guys made it to the Estate and, he only put you down once all of you were safely inside him closing the doors and, going around the house to make sure all the doors and, windows were closed. You were unsteady but, the firm hold Makio still had on you was a grounding weight. 

"Would you like a bath?" Before you can answer Suma was already rushing to make one while Hina was in the kitchen talking about making something. You weren't sure yet. 

"A bath sounds nice." Makio nodded guiding you straight to the bathroom. She didn't take you to the one you've been using, she took you to the one all of you used to use together. When you entered you were surprised to find it covered with an array of daisies combined with lavender. Those were some of your favorite flowers the daisies. Tengen also had candles and, incense burning. This was lovely

"Do you like it?" You turned around to the silent Hashira nodding happily. This was really sweet. He was being sweet. They all were. You missed this. "It's for you to relax and, enjoy. We will take care of everything." He looked at Makio nodding before disappearing closing the door behind him. Now it was just the two of you. 

"I'm going to bathe with you if you don't mind." She seemed shy which was so unlike Makio. Well, given the circumstances you can sympathize with her.

"It's alright spitfire." She blushed looking at you with such a hopeful look. It was cute to see it on her face. You haven't called her that in a long time. Without another word she carefully undressed you making sure you got into the bath safely before quickly ridding herself of clothes, grabbing the soaps and rags to slide in next to you. You were in heaven. The heat was sinking into your aching limbs, loosening the tight muscles. You could fall asleep. 

"Don't fall asleep on me yet babe." You opened an eye to look at her to see she was determinedly putting soap on the rag to wash you. If this is what she wanted to do then so be it. You weren't going to stop her. You closed your eye going lax with how gentle she was being. It was a total contrast to her nature and, this was something you would have expected from Hina or Tengen. Not even Suma because she is a tad too excitable. "There you go, my love. Just relax. Your spitfire got you. I'm always going to have you from here on out." You said nothing just hummed with a smile. You were in bliss. It was like this as she gently washed your neck, arms, legs- being tender with your thighs and vagina as it was oddly sensitive in a hurting way. It was quiet. Very quiet. It felt a little off though. 

"You're okay spitfire?" She was silent as she washed and, you were going to leave her alone until you heard a sob. A sob from Makio was not a good sign. Alarmed you gently grabbed her arm trying to turn her around but, she wouldn't budge. "What's wrong? Why are you crying?" You fell right back into an old habit that never quite went away. 

"I'm a horrible person." You were thrown for a whole double loop. This is the most vulnerable you have ever seen her. You've seen her embarrassed many times but, this was new. She was so ashamed and vulnerable. It didn't sit right in your heart. "I let you go. I hurt you so much. I'm so fucking stubborn and headstrong that I let my wife slip through my fingers like water. My beautiful, perfect, wife." She choked on a sob again taking a wavering breath. She was so wracked with emotion. You felt your own eyes tear up at how broken she sounded. "Oh My God, I never truly saw how much I was hurting you. I kept holding up this facade thinking it'll get better. It didn't. It did not get better. It just kept hurting. I was hurt that I was part of the reason why you left. Why you think it was better to leave us instead of working it out. I did that." She let out a few sniffles, coughing a bit "I made you feel less than. I made you feel like a servant. I stopped complimenting you, stopped helping you, stopped making you smile and just happy. Why did I do that? Why was I such a horrible person to you? You never deserved to be thrown to the side like a used toy. You were our wife. You still are my wife even if it's in my heart. You will always be my wife." That's when she turned to you looking broken. 

"Makio-" She threw herself on you crying into your neck a new wave of emotions crashing into her. She was holding you tight talking fast and choked but, you understood everything 

"I promise to be better. I promise to be a better wife, a better person to you. You deserve the best of me because you always gave me the best of you. I promise to learn how to cook. We can go to the market together, we can train together, we can sneak off on our own little journies. We can go to the flower field and make crowns, we can go fruit picking, we can watch the stars, we can go swimming, we can be intimate alone and together with the others.  We can do everything and anything your heart desires." She pulled away only to grab your face ignoring how the both of you were a hot mess in the tub. You knew Tengen heard you and, he had stopped Hina and Suma from coming in because this was your moment with Makio. "Please don't leave again. My heart can't handle it. Please I'll do anything. Give me another chance to be the wife I should have been. Let me prove to you that I changed. And I will never change again." She was shaking or maybe it was you? Probably both of you. She was still crying but, never broke eye contact with you. Emotions running rampant you pulled her in for a searing kiss. Should you have done it? Maybe not but, it felt right. You pulled away giving her a small wife 

"You never stopped being my wife here." You placed a hand on your heart watching her fall in pieces again in your arms. Maybe Shinjuro was right about you coming with them to finish healing. 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

After the two of you calmed down she helped you out of the water, drying you off and, dressing you. She did the same thing to herself quickly the two of you exiting holding hands. She didn't want to let you go and, as expected Tengen was with Hina and Suma. You caught their eyes giving them a smile following Makio to the living space. She sat down and, had you sit directly next to her. Your food was already served and, she was determined to feed you. Not one to disappoint you let her as the others joined you. She had a spoon every time you took one until the two of you were done. 

"Let's take a nap. You look sleepy." Maybe you were. You didn't argue. You watched fondly as she dragged you to the sleeping area and laid you down first before laying down a little higher than you so she can pull your head in to lay on her chest. "Are your legs okay?" She looked anyway despite your nodding. She covered the two of you with a light blanket holding your head gently and throwing a leg across your hip for more security. "I'll be here when I wake up. I promise I'm not going anywhere." She hummed running her hand across whatever part of you she can touch lulling you into asleep with her following right behind you. The two of you were unaware of the three others watching you. 

"And I thought she was going to be the last to break." Suma was tapping her cheeks glancing at Tengen and Hina to gouge their reaction. 

"No, she is very stubborn. Almost as bad as our husband." Hina smirked at Tengen who avoided her gaze "However, she has a big heart. She is soft for all of us so, to be honest, I am surprised she did last this long." Hina smiled a bit bigger watching how Makio curled her whole body over Y/N in a protective embrace. All three watched the two of them for a bit talking quietly amongst each other. Well, Suma was quiet which was strange. Suma always had something to say.

"Is there something on your mind Suma?" She looked worried and, on the verge of tears but, otherwise was quiet. 

"I think if I wait too much longer to talk to her I'm going to freak out." She rubbed her whole face sighing "I really hope she can forgive me. I won't plan anything just...let my heart and mind talk." She was bothered by how much her selfishness triggered you. It reminded her of how she was when he first brought Hina home. Makio was very brash and rough so her mannerisms didn't last long but, with Hina, it lasted a few weeks before she spoke up. With you? You never said anything. She never knew how much it bothered you. "I wish she would have said something." The others stood quiet for a bit before Tengen spoke 

"I think she knows that but like she told all of us. She tried." He glanced at Suma "It makes no sense to dwell on what could have, should have, would have. It's too late and, the damage has been done. The only thing we can do is be better and, make sure nothing like that ever happens again." He was getting a little tired of communication this, communication that. He knew you knew and, what's done is done. Damage has been done already. The only thing they can do is rectify and be better. Nothing else. 

------------------------------------------------------------

It was a couple more days before Suma worked up the courage to be alone with you to talk. She wasn't scared of your reaction, she was scared that she would cry too much and come off too insincere when that is not what she wants. She needs to get her point across without thinking. She needed to just let her emotions talk for her like she always does.

"Are you okay Suma?" She was quiet nibbling on her lips while caressing your legs gently, eyes focused on your healing bruises and cuts. She is never quiet. You didn't like it. 

"No, I messed up so fucking much and, I don't want you to hate me." Your eyes widen at her declaration. Why in the world would you ever hate her? That's just absurd. "I read everything you wrote and, it's so true. It is very true. I am selfish." She was already crying but, she needed to keep going. She needed you to understand and, hear her. "Every time you wanted to be with Tengen, I wanted to be with him. Every time you were with either Makio or Hina, I wanted to be there too. I am so stupid I didn't realize that it was you I wanted to be with. I wanted to spend time with you. Instead of being honest and, talking I helped push you away. I never wanted to push you away. You're so amazing. You take care of all of us with everything and anything." She was looking at you now shaking a bit. "You had every right to leave. We pushed you away. We really pushed our heart away. You are a piece of my heart. You are part of my everything. It hurt so much not having you here. I missed your hugs, your kisses, your smell, your voice, your touch. I missed everything." 

"Suma-" She shook her head stopping you. She needed to finish.

"I love you Y/N. I love you so much and it hurt not having you here. I felt broken. A piece of me was missing. You would not have had to leave if I never pushed you away. I want to go to the market with you. I want to be there for you. I want to be your shoulder to cry on. I want to protect you. I want to love you in every way I know how and, can." She stopped rubbing your legs to move and grab your face. She was sobbing a bit now "Please let me love you. Please, allow me another chance to make up everything for you. Let me be your wife again." She was shaking, holding on to you staring into your eyes. She was desperate. She wanted to be your wife again. You stared at each other for a bit. You impulsively grabbed her waist causing both of you to fall to the floor. 

"...You can be my wife blueberry." She gasped before full-blown wailing. There you go. There was the Suma you knew. Her wailing attracted the other occupants Makio came first to scold her but, she stopped seeing you holding her and, rocking side to side with a grin. She was blubbering I love you's and I'm sorry to you but, it was fine. She was fine. You were going to be fine. You missed your blubbering blueberry after all anyway. You were too focused on Suma to notice the others slipping away giving the two of you a moment

"I'm so glad. This gives me hope that she will accept me." Makio pat Hina on the back in a comforting matter

"Of course, she will! If she forgave me and Suma there is no doubt in my mind she won't forgive you! Her love never went fully away so that's great! We can fix all of this and, make sure she is never neglected in anything else ever again!" Makio was excited. She got a positive response from you and, it's the best she has ever felt in weeks! She wanted to make sure that all of them, herself included, didn't fuck up that badly. Of course, there will be mistakes and accidents but, they would all communicate and check in with each other weekly.

"You're right. I should be more optimistic!" Hina was nervous beyond belief but, she needed to be brave. For you, for the relationship. She needed you. She needed and wanted you to accept her as her wife again. She won't be the same if you didn't. She looked at Makio and over to where Suma was with you solidifying her nerves a bit. You would accept her. She knew you would. Once you did she will never make such a drastic mistake that costed their relationship once.

----------------------------------------------------------

It was Hina's turn and she waited to talk to you the next day. You've been going through it emotionally even if it was positive so, she wanted to give you a little break. She couldn't wait any longer though she felt like her heart was going to come out of her chest. She watched you from the kitchen as you read a book. You always loved reading so she and Tengen have been stockpiling the library with all kinds of books for you to enjoy. It was nice seeing your face light up, frown, pout, and, all the other emotions that the book triggered. She scanned your body liking how the bruises and cuts were healing up. She was more concerned about the one between your legs and on your back. It made her tear up so, she looked away steadying her breath. She felt like she failed you. They all did but, she should have fought harder. She was always docile, quiet, wanting to be a peacemaker. She shouldn't have. She should have fought to keep you here. They should have just been better from the jump. 

"You normally don't space out like this." She gasped turning around to see you smiling at her. There you go always worried about them and, they didn't do the same in return. Why didn't they ever check up on you? 

"It's fine. I'm okay. You shouldn't be walking around, you're still healing." The bruises were yellowing around the edges but, were still rather tender. She grabbed your hand guiding you to sit on the tatami mat and, she sat down in front of you holding your hands tenderly "I have a lot to say and, I have no idea how it's going to come out." You stayed quiet waiting for her to continue 

"I'm listening." You rubbed a thumb over her knuckles tenderly

"You always listened, you listened to everything we said, everything we mentioned off-handedly or directly you will always listen. You will always make things as perfect as they can be for all of us. You would always reassure us, take care of us, make sure that we're happy, that we ate, trained, made sure we were as great as possible in every possible aspect." She took a deep breath ignoring the tears welling in her eyes "We stopped doing the same for you. I don't know where we all went wrong. I don't know when everything stepped including you. I don't know why your needs stopped being important. They never should have. You didn't deserve that." She took another deep breath not caring about the tears or how her voice was coming out now. "We didn't deserve you anymore. I never blamed you for leaving. It was a wake-up call. A wake-up call that should have never happened but, we allowed it to happen because our heads were stuck so far up our asses we ignored our glue." Your eyes widen when she said that 

"What-" She continued talking 

"You are our glue. You are what makes us complete. You are what makes us whole. There is no us without you. We do not deserve another chance." She bowed as low as possible to you. "I am begging you, to allow me to be a better wife. We can be together in whichever way you want. Just like we used to be before everything went to shit. Please Y/N." She looked back up at you and, she was choking on her cries. Hina doesn't cry. "Let me show you how much better I am. Let me be the wife you can be proud of." She was shaking a bit, crying, choking on sobs but, she didn't look away from you. Needing an answer. Of course, you were crying because who wouldn't? 

"Come here." She obliged throwing herself on you, both of you falling back. You wrapped your arms tightly around her before she got any ideas to get up worrying that she hurt you. "I may have been very disappointed in you but, I never stopped per se being proud of you." You held her as she sobbed openly into your chest. It kind of hurt. A lot. More than Makio and Suma combined. Hina was the one to never lose her cool with anything. It bothered you that she was so shaken up and vulnerable. You don't like seeing any of them so vulnerable. "Since I said yes to Makio and Suma I thought it would be obvious that I have no qualms with you being my wife again." You smiled down at her rubbing away her tears. "You got to stop the crying though. I love your gorgeous smile much better." That got a chuckle out of her which made you grin. Were you crying yourself? Yes, who cares though.

------------------------------------------------------

Now that all of your wives made up there was one person you were waiting to have the conversation with. Admittedly, you're glad about the way they did it. It would have been way too many emotions to try and, handle at once. You knew Tengen was going to talk to you and, would want to do it alone. Your wives seemed to have known what was going on because they all went to sleep - or pretended who knows for sure- while you went and sat out in the garden. You haven't been to the back of the Estate so you don't know what it looked like back there. You would like to see it though. 

"I was wondering when you were coming." You turned to your right to smile at him. He didn't seem surprised that he couldn't sneak up on you. At times he got you but, that was not one of those times. He smiled back at you moving to sit behind you. You leaned back against his chest getting comfortable. He was leaning against the wall of the Estate. 

"Just wanted to find the right time." The two of you sat there looking up at the stars. It was peaceful. Nice. This was one of the things that you missed doing together. Just watching the stars enjoying the night. "Let's go to the back, yeah?" He picked you up gently bringing the two of you to the back of the Estate. As soon as he opened the door you gasped in shock. It was a mini field of flowers. So many flowers. 

"Tengen, how-" He brought you to the center where there was a space big enough for all five of you to fit if you wanted. 

"White Lily, my love is pure" He gave you one as you sat quietly watching him speak as he picked up each different flower "Daisy, I love you truly...wild Rose pleasure and pain...Yellow Pansy thinking of you...Red carnation my heart aches for you...Honeysuckle devoted affection...Red tulip I declare my love...Hyacinthe your loveliness charms me...canterbury bell your letter received." He grabbed one more flower going towards you and, sitting in front of you handing the bunch to you. "Iris I send a message." You looked at all the flowers in your hand looking between them and Tengen as he just smiled at you. He took the flowers and placed them beside you before grabbing your hands in his big ones.

"I love the flowers so much." He nodded his head just watching you. He had a calculating look in his eyes as well as other emotions you couldn't quite put a name to.

"I am nowhere near to earning your forgiveness." He glanced quickly down so, you pretended not to notice. "I am supposed to be your devoted, loving, and, flamboyant husband. I was not. I failed. Horribly so." He didn't avert his eyes even though you knew he wanted to. "I never noticed how much of a bastard I was being to you. I should have noticed. You should not have had to communicate to me that I was being neglectful. It was so painfully obvious, yet I never noticed. I was so careless. You left us and, that's when I noticed. That's not something you can easily forgive" He took a breath again "I do not want your forgiveness until I feel I earned it and, that would be a long time. I do not deserve your forgiveness. I neglected you. I allowed my wife to feel unwanted, not loved. I did not give you affection, all I did was criticize you and treated you like a lesser than. That is not how you are to be treated by me. I am not a man for the way I treated you." You felt your jaw drop as for the second time Tengen Uzui bowed to you until his head was on the ground "I am asking you to give me a chance to be your husband. I want us all to be a family again. I want to wake up to your beautiful smile. I want to smell you all over the house just like our other wives. I miss your presence. Our home doesn't feel like home without you." He got up and, he had a ring in his hand. The same ring you threw in his face so long ago. 

"Is that-" He nodded his head 

"If you allow it Y/N. I want to be your husband and, you to be our wives. Our family will never be complete without you. I want to prove to you how much better I am. I want to protect you. I failed before. I failed you so many times. Let me make it up." His voice wobbled, a couple of stubborn tears falling from his eyes. His hand was shaking as he waited for your response. Fuck, why did he cry he made you cry. Maybe you already were. Your response was to hold out your hand.

"Well, it's only right that my husband puts my ring on." The largest grin you've ever seen crossed his face as he shakily put on the ring before pulling you into a crushing hug. You hugged him back equally as tight allowing the tears to overflow. God, you missed him. You missed all of them so much.

"I'm so glad to have you back home." He was sitting having you settled in his lap. 

"It feels good to be back." The two of you stayed there for a while just hugging you before he pulled back with a hopeful look on his face.

"Can I please you? We won't go all the way. You're still injured I don't want to hurt you." His hand lightly traced your back and, the other one your thighs. "We don't have to if you don't want to. I-I want to though. Just to see your pleased expression and, for you to relax a bit. I want you to feel good. That's all I want. Only if you want me to." He was patiently waiting for your answer. You thought about it. Was it too soon? All well, who cares. No one was here to judge you. You'll blame it on a weak emotional moment between the two of you.

"You can Tengen." He shuddered at the way you said his name. He missed your voice so much. Carefully, he tilted your head back so, he can kiss you. Nothing rough, nothing hard. Soft. He wanted to be soft, slow, sensual with you. You deserved it. You needed this. He kissed you gently, while one hand stayed on your hip, his other tracing your arms moving slowly to your collarbone. You loved it. You loved this. You went to rub his chest but, he stopped you. 

"This is about you and, you only." You nodded your head leaning back into his chest getting comfy in his lap again. He had you turned at an angle slightly so he can see your face. He went back to kissing you, his hand tracing down from your collarbone to your open haori caressing the skin between your boobs and, on the sides to stimulate you. He tongued kissed you slowly matching the tempo he played with your nipples. Slow circles of his tongue around yours, slow circles around your nipples making them hard. You felt your vagina squeeze at the sensations of being touched, caressed, and kissed. "That's right baby. I got you." He trailed light kisses on your collarbone the hand playing with your nipples sliding down your stomach squeezing and caressing lightly.

"Feels so nice..." You talked no louder than a whisper but, you knew he heard you. He always heard you. He was the Sound Hashira after all. 

"I always want you to feel nice my beloved." As he was sucking on your neck leaving love bites and, hickeys, the traveling hand finally went to your vagina. He used two fingers to spread your lips and, the second to slide up and down your slit collecting your arousal before settling on your clit. You gave an involuntary thrust, a gasp leaving your mouth. It's been a long time since either yourself or someone else touched down there. "Right here beautiful?" The only response he got was a soft moan from you. He circled his finger around your clit clockwise, counterclockwise and, sometimes up and down to change it up a bit. He watched as your body responded to his touch. Your back arched, hips moving on their own accord as you moaned without abandon

"Ten...Ten...Ahhh..." You felt amazing. You forgot how good his fingers were and, you felt your orgasm coming quicker than you thought. "Fing-" You threw your head back with a semi-loud moan loving how he entered two fingers inside you and, kept his thumb on your clit rubbing in circles. 

"Cum for me gorgeous. I got you. Ten has you." A few more circles with his thumb and, a thrust of his fingers had you cumming all over them. Normally he would stop but, he was aroused at your blissed-out expression. He felt pre-cum drop from the tip of his penis so with vigor he kept going. You gripped his arm squeezing at the sudden onslaught.

"TEN! PLEASE! AHH!" He gave you no reprieve loving how your face twisted with pleasure gripping his wrist. He watched as you both held on and, tried to pull away. It was too much and, not enough at the same time.

"One more beautiful. I just want you to have one more. You look so gorgeous blissed out from my fingers. Come on, please. I want to watch you cum one more time. I got you. You're so pretty and perfect. I love you so much." He watched your chest heave up and down, breasts bouncing with each bounce. Hips moving to follow his fingers and, a thumb on your clit listening to the squelching noises your pussy made. He watched and, listened as your moans got more high-pitched and, the way you squeezed his fingers "Come on baby. Cum for me. One more. Give me one more." His words, his touch, the closeness, the intimacy, his fingers. Everything was too much and, with a scream, you cummed for the second time collapsing in a heap feeling sleepy in his arms. "You did so well for me. I am so proud of you." If you weren't so sleepy you would have agreed with him. However, you were blissed out.

"Cuddles." With a chuckle, he scooped you up taking you back into the house. The two of you passed by the baths wiping down and, cleaning your privates gently both agreeing to just take a good bath in the morning. By the time he made it back with his other wives, you were dead asleep. Very carefully he got in the middle with you splayed on top of your chest, Makio under one arm, Suma under the other, and Hina spooning Suma. He made sure to grab ahold of all of them before settling down for sleep himself

"I promise to never disappoint any of you ever again." With that thought in mind, he joined his wives in dreamland.

---------------------------------------------------------

Woooo! I am almost done with this one-shot-turned story! I got one more chapter to go and, it's going to be a sort of epilogue to conclude this whole thing! Thank you guys so much for taking me on this journey! I had a lot of fun writing this story!
