I am open to constructive criticism so if something is wrong let me know. also please review. i worked really hard to make this so I'd like some feedback.


It has been 2 days since Kagome was sold to Toga and now she is on a plane ride to Japan. After the auction, some person she had never seen took her by the arm and led her back to the room she had met Kanna in earlier. Then she was given some food to eat. Apparently they drugged that too because soon she was fast asleep.

The next day they woke her up and told her to bathe. This bath she got some privacy though. She had not seen Naraku since the auction either. 'Wow I don't know if I should be happy or not. I mean bye \ Naraku but who is this Toga guy? Well he sure was handsome…and rich…hopefully it won't get worse than it already has.' After the bath, she was given food and didn't fall asleep afterward. What a surprise! It was one of the first times they left her food alone. After that they had her wait in her room. So many things were going through her mind she just sat on the bed as the hours went by. A knock sounded and Toga walked in.

"Come Kagome it is time for us to leave."

"Where am I going?" she couldn't help but ask.

"I will take you to my home in Japan, where you will be presented to my son as a gift from me."

Kagome thought about how they were gonna get there….flying. And you can't get on a plane without a passport! She smiled at her revelation.

"And how do you think the airport security will feel when you take me there and I scream for help?" she smirked.

"Well that's an easy question. I am very rich. That's how I got you. Don't you think I would be smarter than that Kagome?" he shook his head at her and the sides of his mouth curved a slight bit upward, "Of course I have my own plane. And there is no security there because of course it is a private jet." he laughed now, "did you think I was that foolish to throw that much money away so easily?" She suppressed her scream at his mocking.

Of course, he thought it through and most likely ten times more than she did. 'Now what?' she asked herself.

Then he started to speak again, "Let's go," he said as he left the room. She got up and solemnly followed him to a big limo and got in with him. As soon as the door was closed behind her, they were off.

The tension was very thick in the car and Toga did not like it. He was not the type to treat women badly and did not know why she was so upset. Most women he assumed would be happy to be in her position. Slave or not she was going to be getting better treatment than some people who were not. After a moment of confusion, he decided just to ask her.

"Kagome, why are you so upset?" she gave him and incredulous look so he just continued without an answer, "I am the richest man in Japan, I own a widely successful business and both my sons will be taking over for me one day. My home is I imagine at least 10 times the size of yours and you will be well taken care of there. I cannot understand what irks you so." Then a look of fire crossed in her blue eyes as she glared daggers at his ignorance.

"Really? You don't know what's bothering me?" her voice began to rise; "I have been kidnapped, touched inappropriately, and sold away to strangers. My life has been ruined and I am lucky to not be dead like my poor friend Kori who probably already is by now! I will never see my family and they are probably worried sick about me if they have even realized I have come up missing by now!" she broke off into loud sobs and her body began to tremble.

Toga sympathized with her and didn't want her to feel bad. 'This is what I get for dealing with Naraku' he thought as he put his arms around her and held her. At first, she struggled with him but then her body went limp as her tears spilled out. It went like that for over 30 minutes.

The car came to a halt and the driver opened the door. Toga let go of the poor girl and nudged her sending the message that it was time to get out of the car. She did as told and exited with him following. They were escorted to a small jet and took their seats. The plane went off as her new captor spoke. "Well now would be a good time for you to think positively. I don't know the details and whole truths about what happened before you were given to me but I can guarantee that it is gonna be so much better and I wouldn't be surprised if you learned to enjoy your new life. Have you ever been on a private jet before?" she shook her head no giving him the response he had hoped for, "My point exactly. So relax, take your mind off your worries and look toward the bright side."

She couldn't see the bright side but she wasn't stupid. She knew he was right. He was being civil to her and treated her with some respect. 'I guess I have to make this best of this. It's like momma always said. When life gives you fresh grapes, you eat them; but when life gives you old sun dried grapes, you give them a couple more days in the sun and eat them as raisins' she smiled at that.

Kagome decided then and there to summon all her strength and stay positive. So first, she decided to tour the plane. It was small but very nice. Then after about an hour she got bored so laid down to take a nap. She woke up to someone shaking her shoulder. 'I guess we're here…well I did say we should have gone to Japan. Maybe I will see my family. They will help me! Oh yes I have a chance!' Kagome walked out the plane looking like her mother might as well have been standing out to greet her.

Toga was confused at this newfound attitude but shrugged it off; better happy than miserable. They got into another car and drove into the city.

She looked around looking for her family. Then they did it. They drove past the house! It was the Higurashi shrine actually. Kagome had lived there but only as a young girl. As soon as they drove by Kagome made sure to memorize every turn, they made so that when she got the chance she would make a run for it.

However, it started getting hard to remember everything once an hour had passed. Then it became more difficult after she hit 2 hours. Finally, they turned into a long driveway, a very, very long driveway. About a quarter mile down was a little bridge with a gate at its entrance. A man sat in the front waiting for them to drive up and opened the gate with a wave to his boss who in turn gave him a nod. They drove to what seemed like a private island and into some dense woods. The place was huge. After about a mile down, she saw it. The Taisho residence. She couldn't help the gasp that came out once she saw the place.

The drive way became a cobblestone and curved into a U shape before the front of the stairs. In the center of it was a pretty water fountain with flowers around it. The steps leading up to the house led to a 2-door entrance. The place was huge it looked like a hotel. It was three stories high as she could tell. They got to the house and she was lead in by Toga. When she got in there was a flight of stairs in front of her. The room she was in was up to the roof so the stairs reached the third floor. They fanned out into two directions. A double door at the top. She was then distracted in her train of thought.

"Kagome, wait here as I get someone to show you around," he walked off. She had the perfect opportunity to walk right out the door and hide in the forests until she could swim the lake and walk hours to the city.

But in her awe, she just stood there. 'This place is amazing! And I haven't even seen anything yet. I'm surprised they don't have MTV Cribs Japan version.'

A man walked up to her. He had black hair tied into a little ponytail at the base of his head. He was wearing a dark purple button up with slacks, "Hi Kagome, my name is Miroku, and I work here. I was told that I'm going to be showing you around a little," he said with a smile.

She just looked at him and nodded. 'I should be nice to him. He never did anything to me and he seems really nice.'

"It's a pretty big place if you didn't notice by now," he gave a small smile, "but you'll get used to it. I'm just gonna show you the main places. The rest you'll just figure out on your own. C'mon we'll start, uhhmm," he paused deep in thought until his eyes lit up with an answer; "down stairs!" he laughed a little after his outburst. Then with a sudden seriousness he looked her in the eye and said, "You're really good looking," and he then proceeded to check her out. He stopped as soon as he saw her face glaring at him and gave her a can't-blame-me look.

First, he showed her the kitchens where she could cook and eat for herself, then the bathroom for her and a few rooms where other employee's just hung out if they wanted to. It was another benefit for working for the Taisho family. To her surprise, some of the people who worked there also had their own small rooms. There was a library that took up two stories and an indoor pool and spa. Then they went to the second floor. She also found out where the stairs for that were too, since the main staircase only went to the third floor.

On the second story was where the family stayed. There was a large dining room. Kitchens, bathrooms and so many rooms she didn't even bother to count them. On the third floor, she found out, that the room above the stairs was like a family room. Then the study; where she wasn't allowed in, and the bedrooms to the master of the house and his family. She found out that she would be living in the room adjacent to the eldest son whose name she couldn't remember. She was guessing it was Sesshmaru, or something like that.

Miroku left her in her room to look around and told her that her tour had one last stop and that he'd be back in 5 minutes. 'Wow,' she thought, 'this room is lovely. It's better than my old one by ten times at least.' She began to walk around. Sadly, there was no lock on the door but oh, what a pretty door it was. There were little stars carved in the wood from the bottom to the top and the handles looked to be real silver. She was given a queen-size bed. A night stand, dresser, a 360-degree mirror, 'I'll definitely enjoy that,' she thought with a smile. There was a window that went to the ceiling. The wood was white and she noted that the room was themed with white and baby blue. She sat on the bed, 'It sure is comfy,' and moved to her closet. It was about half the size of her bed but it was empty with some aprons and towels in it. She looked through her draws in the room and realized that she had nothing.

Nothing of her own except the clothes on her back and it wasn't even decent. 'No wonder why Miroku was checking me out. I look like a whore. I mean they never gave me new clothes. Just the nighty and heels.' She looked in her mirror. So much for first impressions.

She heard a knock on the door and waited for someone to enter…nothing happened. 'Wow things are looking up already!' she smiled. Another knock came at the door, this time Miroku's voice came with it, "Kagome? Are you okay in there?" She then glided over to the door and opened it for him with a grin spread across her face.

"I didn't think it possible but you look even lovelier when you smile." Miroku said with astonishment that sounded very convincing but Kagome didn't really buy into it. She just said thanks sarcastically and then left the room.

Miroku took her back to the second floor and led her to a room at an end of the house. "This is where Lady Kaede lives. She is the one in charge of everything that goes on here. She's Mr. Taisho's personal assistant. Kind of like what you are to Sesshomaru." he pointed to the door.

'Ahh that was his name,' Kagome thought, 'Sesshomaru! Weird, I've been in America way too long to be here.' she giggled at herself causing Miroku to give her a confused look. "Oh nothing, nothing at all." she said.

"Okay then Kagome I'll leave you to her then. Just knock on the door and she will tell you to come in. It was a pleasure meeting you" he gave her a wave goodbye and was off on his own way. Kagome turned to the door and knocked on it to wait for an answer. She heard a faint come in and opened the door. In front of her was an old woman, a very old woman actually, at her desk near the window.

She turned and looked at Kagome, "Who are you?" she asked.

Kagome stuttered a bit, "Um, I'm a, my names Kagome."

Right then Kaede's face lit up with sympathy and she got up and came up to Kagome and gave her a slight embrace. "Oh yes I forgot that you were coming today. I'm so sorry dear I heard what happened to you. I want you to know that you are very lucky though. We will treat you like family here. Mr. Taisho never usually goes to places like that but he went to some fortune teller to see what he should get his eldest son for a birthday present and she told him some mumbo jumbo and got him to buy you. But you are blessed for that because I know that you would never have ended up better." Kaede grabbed Kagome's head and kissed her forehead. "Now I'm going to need to measure you so we can buy you some clothes and tell me dear what shoe size are you? You didn't bring anything with you did you?" Kagome shook her head. "I supposed so but no worry I am always prepared," she went to a box and pulled out a brush and many other toiletries Kagome would need and resumed her speech, " okay Kagome you're going to be Sesshomaru's personal servant. I'm going to assume that you don't know your duties so that if something is to go wrong I'm not to be at fault."

She led Kagome to a small couch and the two sat down as she continued, "Well basically you're going to clean up after him. That won't be much though because he's a very neat person so most likely it'll be dusting his room, doing his laundry, vacuuming, and things like that." She paused and looked at Kagome, "Kagome, I was told you are a virgin, correct?" Kagome answered with a yes and a blush to match. Kaede nodded and looked at her, "If Sesshomaru wishes it so, you will also have to give yourself to him."

Kagome stood up, dropping her newly acquired things in the process, "What? How is that expected of me? I thought I was going to be treated well here! You can't do this its rape!"

Kaede interrupted her, "Sit down and do not interrupt your elders." Kagome obeyed and sat down so Kaede could continue. "I am sorry but Mr. Taisho paid millions of dollars for you and you are lucky to be where you ended up unlike many other girls who were in the same position you were and you know that is true. Losing it is a big thing I understand but to be honest I highly doubt Sesshomaru will come to you he has brought many a girl home before." Kaede felt a bit better seeing that Kagome looked calmer with those words, "Now go to your designated bathroom that I trust Miroku showed you and take a shower. Then go to your room and there will be clothes sent up for you to wear; they will be on the bed. Do your hair and makeup if you feel you need to; I know how you young girls are about make up." she gave a small chuckle, "Someone will come up at exactly seven to bring you down to meet Sesshomaru. His birthday was last week and so he has no idea what you are. When you meet him tell him happy birthday and that his father sent you as a gift. He'll fill in the rest for himself, he's very intelligent. Oh yes one more thing, please do not throw yourself over him as some women do."

Before Kagome could ask any questions or give a retort to that comment she was being pushed out the door and pointed in the direction of the bathroom when the door shut behind her.

Kagome did as was told and found the shower to be very relaxing. Then when she was finished she found a towel and went to her room. She found everything on the bed just as Kaede said. 'Wow, she's got everything under her control here' Kagome thought. She put on the outfit and went over to the mirror to do her hair and makeup. She was given a black tank top to wear. Then over it would go a top that was blue with black leopard print on it. It was also see through so you could see the tank underneath. She had a tight black skirt that went to mid thigh and was given some dark blue flats to match.

"Wow this is nice. I should have someone else pick out my clothes all the time." she said to herself. Then she put on blue eye shadow, a small amount of eyeliner and some pink lip gloss. When she was ready she looked at the alarm clock beside the bed. "6:45," she read aloud, "What do I do till its time?" she looked around confused. Then she walked over to the window sill and just sat down and closed her eyes to take a rest. 'Good idea me' she mentally applauded herself.

Before she knew it a knock came at the door. "Come in," she said, liking the idea of having privacy and at least a little respect. She felt a little bit more important at that. Then a girl who Kagome thought looked around the age of 15 walked in.

She gave Kagome a big smile and held out her hand, "Hi! My name is Lylah. I'm Kaede's granddaughter." the two shook hands. "I heard you met her already. I'm gonna take you down to meet Sesshomaru now. Aren't you excited? Oh he is the most handsome man I have ever, ever, ever seen!" The girl shrieked. Kagome then just realized how nervous she really was. The butterflies in her stomach seemed to wake up as they walked toward the room he waited in.

Lylah opened the door and went in with Kagome behind her. "She's here," Lylah announced. There were three men in the room. One of which was Toga, the other Miroku, and the last…she suspected that he was Sesshomaru.

Standing at six two was the most magnificent man she had ever seen. He had long silver hair like his fathers and gold eyes that seemed somewhat cold. He wore black slacks and a dark blue button up that matched her clothes, with the first few top buttons undone showing of his nice neck, a black tie that looked to be loosened up at the top, and his sleeves were rolled up accenting his nicely toned forearms. The shirt was just snug enough to show that his whole upper body was toned and he stood up straight at his full height looking like a Greek god coming down to earth.

'Now I can see what Kaede meant' as Kagome thought she might swoon. She didn't expect the sexy smooth baritone voice that came out of his mouth.

"Who are you?" he asked her in a calm voice that could command an army with the power behind his words. Kagome didn't even realize what was going on until he repeated himself. "Who are you?" his irritation at her ignoring him showed.

Embarrassed and ten shades of red she answered, "I'm Kagome, I'm your birthday gift from your father." she said it so acceptingly and calmly she angered herself.

Sesshomaru walked up to her and looked her up and down. He smirked looked at his father, "Father you've outdone yourself." Sesshomaru gave a small smirk toward Kagome that sent her nerves out of whack. Then he left the room. There was a silence.

Miroku piped up an "I think he liked you" and started laughing with his boss. Lylah was frozen to her spot with her hand on her heart looking in the direction Sesshomaru left. Toga started talking to Miroku about how great an idea it was and how he was happy with his decision.

All of them leaving Kagome to her thoughts, 'Well, what now?' She left and went back to her room. "I really spent all that time and effort getting ready for that?" she said aloud to no one in particular.

She started to undress when Lylah knocked on her door and said excitedly, "Kagome, Master Sesshomaru wishes for you to meet him in his room."
