Chapter 420: Touching Reunion

Kat PoV

My eyes landed on the woman standing at the top of the stairs, her visage near identical to mine, just softer and more mature.

Her amber eyes were wet with tears as she stared at me, and I could see her tail swishing behind her back as she began to slowly walk forwards.

I grinned at her, making my way up the stairs swiftly as I noticed her rather pronounced belly so that she wouldn't strain herself.

"K-Katherine..?"

I threw my arms around her and embraced her, the familiar, calming scent filling my nose as I buried my face into her neck.

"It's me, Mother... I'm back..."

My voice cracked as I said that, and my heart began to ache as I felt her tremble against my body, her soft sobs making me feel guilty for once again worrying her so much.

Supporting her so that she wouldn't fall, I helped her down the stairs with her still in my arms, my collar growing wet as she cried quietly, making me tear up as well.
