Alright! Here it is. I tried writing a SesshomaruXOC story a long time go. I thought I would give it a try now that I'm a tad older and sort of wiser.

I knight thee, "The One Who Soothed The Cold Heart."

ENJOY!

Warm sunlight cascaded down onto Kagome's back through a small sliver of her french doors that was not shaded by her curtains. Instantly, the raven haired beauty knew it was because of her husband, the early riser in their relationship. The man would get up from bed and wander out onto their exquisite balcony, his gaze wandering across the city of Tokyo. Kagome never really understood why he did it. She concluded it had to be part of his demon heritage, the winds allowing him to simply breathe. The hustle and bustle of the city sometimes got to him, forcing the half demon man to lay in bed with a crippling migraine.

"Hmph. Inuyasha! How many times-..." Kagome's yell was cut short by a warm sculpted body pressing into her back, nipping her gently on the neck and then replacing it with a gentle kiss. His deep voice laughed softly into her ear just as he moved to rip the sheets away from his wife's body.

"Time to get up!" His obnoxiously loud and cheerful voice had Kagome taking a point in Inuyasha's book and growled loudly at him, standing to her feet on top of the mattress. All anger was lost as Inuyasha stood naked as the day he was born, hands on his hips as he smirked playfully at his wife, who in return, was standing naked as well.

Kagome bent down quickly to whip a pillow at her husband who caught it without looking as he strolled leisurely to their shared closet. "We have to head to Sesshomaru's. He gave me a call this morning, needs to talk about something. He wouldn't tell me over the phone." His voice echoed and traveled in the bedroom as Kagome fixed their bedsheets. A baffled expression crossed her features as she gave up on fixing the sheets and followed his voice into the closet. She bumped his hip with her own and laughed softly as he swatted at her behind.

Reaching for her long flowing sundress and undergarments, Kagome scrunched her nose as a whiff of Inuyasha's cologne came towards her face. "That's weird. He's never asked you to come over. What if he wants to kill you? I'll have to avenge you." Walking past him, Kagome heard his low growl and immediately smirked brightly.

"Dunno. He didn't say anything about work, so it must be serious. Bastard always has something to say to me about what I'm doing wrong at his shit company."

His wife snorted just as she slipped on her dress, adjusting the straps. "Shit company? You love working there."

"Not when the jackass doesn't give me time off when I need it." The half demon had just got done adjusting his tie when he moved back into the bedroom. Pressing a kiss to his wife's shoulder, he moved around her to grab his watch off their nightstand, checking his phone once more as he went.

"Taking the day off to watch the Superbowl isn't something you NEED to do. Idiot." She mumbled the last part but seeing his ears twitch, Kagome knew he had heard her.

"Feh. Whatever. You done yet, wench? I don't want to piss off his royal highness."

It always intimidated Kagome when she arrived at the Taisho mansion. Sesshomaru and Inuyasha's father had passed right as Inuyasha was born. In his passing, the man left his multimillion dollar corporation, Taisho Inc. to both of his sons. Sesshomaru had been running the company ever since his father passed. He was known worldwide as the youngest CEO to ever take place, just shy of the age fourteen. When Inuyasha became of age, he immediately sought his father's path and decided to join with Sesshomaru.

Sesshomaru rarely spoke to Kagome. The few times he did was to tell ask her a question. Kagome clearly remembered the day she and Inuyasha married. Sesshomaru congratulated the woman and then walked off. He was a man of few words. Cold and calculating. Ruthless. But to the eye of the public, he was unattainable. Most women threw themselves at his feet, willing to get stomped on by his designer shoes just to say that he paid them attention.

Pulling up to the gate, Inuyasha waved at the standing guard as the gate slowly opened. Pulling up to the front of the winding curved driveway, Inuyasha parked and quickly got out, Kagome following behind him casually.

They didn't even have to ring the doorbell before the door was opened and the couple was faced with Sesshomaru's assistant, Jaken. The imp demon rolled his eyes as he let the pair in. The demon never failed to show his disgust towards the half demon and human. He abhorred them, but he made sure to make his hate known when Sesshomaru wasn't around. Although the full demon hated his brother, he didn't want anyone hurting him.

"Lord Sesshomaru is upstairs in the study." The toad's nasally voice addressed the couple, Kagome thanking him and Inuyasha all but ignoring the two of them in favor of moving towards the stairs. Kagome rolled her eyes before dutifully trailing after her husband.

When they entered the office, Kagome realized the demon wasn't alone. Standing in front of his couch, his gaze was directed worriedly down at a woman laying there. Upon realization, Kagome knocked gently before stepping inside, not wanting to break the moment.

Sesshomaru turned, his features twisting back into their usual stoic expression. Giving Inuyasha and her and brief nod, the pair stepped inside, closing the door shut.

"Alright. What the hell is going on?" Inuyasha, always straight to the point, barked out the question, earning a sharp elbow in the ribs.

The woman laying on the couch slowly sat up, Sesshomaru narrowing his eyes at her as he bent down to help her.

"Well, hello to you too Inuyasha." As the woman sat up, Kagome smiled gently at her.

Kenya Taisho. Otherwise known as Sesshomaru's mate, and the one woman that got under the man's skin and to his heart.

"Feh. Why are we here? You know what today is." Inuyasha muttered the last sentence quietly, his eyes directing to his wife as Kagome gave him a brief smile, her hand going to his arm in comfort.

"Obviously I know. I gave you the day off. But something has come up and I need your help. More so, your mate's help." His golden eyes narrowed sharply at his brother, but a feminine hand on his arm softened his features.

"Enough, Sesshomaru. It's about me. And I need Kagome's help." Kenya spoke softly, tugging on Sesshomaru's arm to bring him back towards her. Sesshomaru whined softly in the back of his throat as a shot of pain rushed through Kenya's features.

Kenya Taisho was the envy of every living female, demon or human in the world. Long flowing black hair that fell in waves down to the mid of her back. Piercing lavender eyes that could make any man fall to his knees. She was fairly short for her height, but she made up for it in strength. She fell from a race of ice demons. She had the ability to manipulate any source of water. Whether it be sweat, or an ocean, the woman could turn anything into her own creation.

Kagome supposed that was how Sesshomaru and her had met. Both intense and strong. Although Kenya put off a caring nature, the woman was a force to be reckoned with when something interfered with her mate of her friends. Kagome envied her. But it wasn't because of how strong she was. It was of how devoted the woman was. How everything fell into her lap.

It also helped that she was strikingly beautiful.

Baffled, Kagome looked to Kenya. "My help? With what? What's going on?" Glancing back and forth between Sesshomaru and Kenya, her question was answered as Sesshomaru breathed out a heavy sigh.

"We're expecting twins. But one of my competitors poisoned her at a dinner part last night. The one that you were expected to attend, brother." Sesshomaru's voice turned cold as he glared dangerously at the half demon across the room.

"You KNEW that Kagome didn't have a ride home from work! I don't trust those fucking buses at night." Inuyasha moved towards his brother but Kagome's hand on his arm pulled him back. Kagome was a registered nurse at the local hospital. Upon learning of her healing powers back when she was sixteen, the raven haired woman knew she wanted to make a difference. Especially since the death of...

The yelling brought her back from the painful memory.

"Knock it off!" She seethed her shout through clenched teeth as she eyed her husband. The man sighed before grumbling under his breath and crossing his arms.

"It's not your fault, Inuyasha. Sesshomaru, stop. We just thought Kagome may be able to help. The poison is affecting the children. If anything, we wanted to know if you could extract the...or something. Anything. I would rather..I would rather have my children die now then to die as I give birth to them."

Kagome's eyes grew wide, her hand clenching tightly onto Inuyasha's arm. She bit down on her lip harshly. Kenya's voice shook with so much emotion that Kagome had to look away.

Kenya was the sort of woman that was destined to be a mother. She was like Kagome in that way. Caring and devoted. She deserved this happiness.

"Wha-What can I do? I just know basic purification. I don't know.."

And it was the way Sesshomaru looked to his mate that made Kagome lose her breath. He looked so utterly helpless. His hand moved to her slightly swollen stomach, rubbing it gently as Kenya clenched her teeth tightly together.

Sesshomaru was one that everyone thought would end up alone. But seeing him like this? They were made for each other. They deserved one another.

"I'll do it."

More details of Sesshomaru and Kenya's relationship to come later of course.

Why was Inuyasha sad when referencing to his day off?

What death was Kagome talking about?
