… = large time skip
… = small time skip
Kagome got a surprise of her life the very next morning when Shippo jumped on to the bed with the Inumanta yapping loudly right behind him.
"Shippo it's too early for this. Go back to bed."
"But mama, you said we were going to the pet shop to pick up all the supplies for our new family member, and I'm already to go."
"Have you chosen a name for the pup yet?"
"No I haven't… but I was wondering if I could look at some names online for him while you are getting ready."
"I don't see why not, just make it quick." she said with a nod of her head before turning back to her room to get dressed for the day. With a stifled yawn, she pulled on her favorite white tiger tank top that hugged her figure in all the right places and a pair of black boot cut skinny jeans that hugged her hips perfectly.
A sweet sigh escaped her lips as she walked in to the bathroom to fix her long wavy hair. With some ease, she pulled her long raven black hair up in to a high ponytail before applying a little makeup and applied some eyes shadow.
"I will grab a cup of coffee before we leave; if you have not acquired anything to eat you better do it now or you have to wait for lunch to get it" she called from the bathroom door before she walked out toward her small kitchen with a smile on her face.
"Mama how does the name Seiran sound to you?"
"It's a nice sounding name. It also means elegant or graceful and he looks like an elegant Inumata."
"That's what I was thinking as well, and no thanks mom I grabbed a chocolate chip granola bar and some juice for the road."
"Just wanting to make sure you had something to eat."
Kagome smiled as she poured her thermos full of her favorite coffee and creamy chocolate creamer before screwing the lid on as she headed to get her keys and purse.
"Alright Seiran lets go I can't wait to get some stuff to get you all cleaned up and make you look even better." He whispered to the Inumata as he lifted him in to his arms he raced to his mother's car and hopped in to his booster seat and buckled up.
Kagome smiled as she walked out of her house and locking the door as she goes. With a smile on her face she takes a seat on the driver's side before cranking up her car and pulling out heading towards the vets first.
The drive was a quite other than Shippo wolfing down his breakfast and juice box before they had arrived to the first stop light. The drive to the store was quick since not many had gotten out this early on the week end.
…
Kagome smiled as she finished off the las bit of her coffee just as they pulled in to the parking lot of SIT BOY's Pet Vet and Supplies. She knew about this building since she was a child in fact this is the same place that she got Buyo the one third demon cat that she got as a child that still lived with her mother and little brother in the shrine.
"All right Shippo and Seiran time to get out" she said as she unbuckled and slid out if the car door before turning to wait on her two passengers who were eagerly trying to get out to go in.
Once out they headed in and to the back where the vet's office was stationed.
"It's been a long-time child last time I saw you in here was when you got your cat Buyo about eighteen years ago, how have you be… oh I see you now have a son of your own bringing him to get his first pet then" an old worn but gentle voice filled the air catching and suppressing Kagome and scaring Shippo and Seiran.
"OH! Kaede it's so good to see you're look good in your golden age."
"Thank you, Kagome, you are still kind as you ever were so that can I do for you and your son."
"I was here to see if this little guy had an owner and if not get him checked over as well as getting supplies to keep him going." she said as she looked over at the black and platinum inu mata then to her son.
Kaede looked down at the mata with a light smile before leading them back to hear her husband was located.
"Totosai look who is here." Kaede called just before reaching the vets office door.
*THUD ... CRASH ... Ting ting ting tin...*
"Mama he ok?"
"I have no clue Shippo I know Totosai was clumsy but this tops it all... last time I was here he was stepping on squeaky toys or were those glued on there by your grandkids Kaede."
Kaede looked at Kagome with her one good eye before they spoke " they thought they would play jokes on him to see that happened. it ended with him being chased by pups and the shoes chewed up..."
Kagome looked over at her with a light smile on her face as they stood there for a moment before Totosai walked out like nothing ever happen.
"Kagome, my girl," he said happily as he hugged her, "what brings you here?"
"I am here to have this mata checked out to see if he has an owner or not."
"I can get that done in no time. Where is it?" she said scanning around looking for the large breed of mata.
Shippo started snickering before looking up at his mother who was also trying to hide her snickering before pointing toward the pup that was wagging his tail as he looked up at the vet.
"That's him" Kagome and Shippo said at the same time.
nodding Totosai looked down before picking the pup up and heading in to the office to start his work, leaving them to their own device.
...
"So Kaede why are you here and not at the orphanage?"
"I have some one come in and work the weekends for me."
The hours flew by as the two conversed until Totosai walked out with the mata following behind him but soon bolted over to Shippo in happy yelps seeing Shippo holding a few inumata items.
"So, what is your report " Kagome asked as she sees the mata running at Shippo.
"I could not find any missing or stolen mata matching his description so he is now registered under your names with and id chip and number for when he gets lots and brought to any vet office he can be returned to you."
"Thank you so much now I can go pay for all the must need items before we can head out."
Nodding Kagome headed toward the check out with everything they had picked out while Totosai was busy.
"Kagome, you need to come by the orphanage more often so we can catch up since I'm only here for a bit…." Kaede never finished her line of thought when the doorbell opened signaling someone was coming in. No one inside the store could see who came in since the shelves were blocking there view at that moment only Shippo's whimpering caught her attention.
"It stinks mama" he whimpered as he hopped up in to her arms barring his nose in to her chest as she heard heals clicked against the tile flooring. Leaning down she clipped a collar and leash around the inumata's neck to be on the safe side as she heard voices that she knew all too well.
"I can't believe he actually thought that copy was me, I am way hotter. Then she tried to steal my fiancée when I was away what kind of a woman does that?" the voice asked.
"The kind that do that are whores that are desperate and did you not mention that your mate is trying to take her as his second because you are 'unable' to have any" a voice replied.
"It's not that I am unable it that I choose not to put stretch marks on my beautiful body I am a top ranked model out there let her give him an heir so her body can be even uglier than it is now what do I care."
The voice cruelly laughed just as they turned were Kagome, Shippo, Seiran, and Kaede all stood looking at them as they approached.
Kagura pretended to lower her voice as she spoke to Kikyo "well speak of the devil and she will appear… oh look Kikyo she has a son so I do not see why she is not throwing herself at you mates feet now since she already as one child by someone else."
At that both women started laughing making their makeup caked faced looked like they are about to crack when kagome turned back to face Kaede to keep from making a rude gesture or comment.` 1
"I think this will cover all the bills for Seiran and his supplies" Kagome said as she pulled out thirty-five thousand yins and was about to hand it over to Kaede when another hand shot past her shoving the money in her hand away from the counter.
"Here my dear cousin let me pay for that, since you will soon be living with my mate and I." Kikyo said in a catty tone.
Kagome took the check and looked it over before Ripping it in to peace's before handing the once six million yen back over to Kikyo without thinking twice about it.
"Sorry Kikyo, but I do not take money from people like you it looks like I am taking being propositioned for something and I so not need your money I have enough to live off comfortably for the next few years."
Kikyo looked at her cousin in shock as the ripped-up check fell into her hand and scattered to the tile as she tries to hide her shock.
"So, my dear cousin, who's the father of your cute son."
"To be completely truthful it really is none of either of your business but I do not know who his father is."
"So, in other words you got drunk off your ass and got knocked up with a kitsune bastard kit, oh that's priceless the goodie two-shoes shames her family." Kagura said in a mocking tone.
Kagome went ridged in anger as her restrained miko aura lashed out as she turned to face Kagura as her son whimpered again and held tighter to her as Seiran started to growl at the two women.
"Well it seems you have never changed, always thinking you know something when you don't, I adopted when he was three so I do not know his father or his mother because he did not wish to discuss it so I will not push him until he is ready. So where ever you got the idea that he was a bastard child can kiss my ass as least im not trying to sleep with my boss or his son" Kagome hissed in anger as she tried to restrain her aura to keep it from purifying the wind witch where she stood while she handed Kaede the money for the dog supplies.
"Well that's not what the press will be saying when InuYasha takes you as his second"
"Who says I will be his second he demanded I be his second when I went into a meeting with his father a few days ago, and guess what I put him on the floor. Oh, here is a fun fact for you Kikyo if your mate keeps being persistent I will make it a permeant reality that he will never have pups with any female as well as slapping both of you with the best restraining order there is for half demon's, demons and humans alike."
"Oh, now I find that funny last time I check your miko rank was three hundred seventy which means your aura is almost equal to that of a standard human while my miko rank is fifteenth." Kikyo said ignoring the restraining order part.
"It seems you have not checked the rankings in the last 4an a half years it's been changed your no longer ranked fifteenth."
Kikyo's eyes lit up at the thought of getting a higher rank as she looked at Kaede and Kagome then pulled out her galaxy 6 phone from her purse and went to the Miko registry association or the MRA and began to scan it looking for her name. After a few minutes, she found her name and rank.
"WHAT?! What do you mean my rank had dropped to fifty?!" Kikyo hissed in anger as she saw her photo id, name, job and where she studied.
"It dropped because you are now mated to InuYasha which decreased you miko abilities and it dropped again since you have not been practicing your miko training but instead modeling." Kagome said as she gathered some of the bags in to her hands as she was preparing to leave the pet store while Seiran picked up some of the lighter back in to his jaws.
Kikyo looked over at Kagome before a sly smile crossed her face. "If I dropped rank that means you are no longer even making the MRA finally my time to shine as a miko."
"Actually, scroll all the way to the bottom since the registry shows the lowest rank first to the highest rank." Kagome Replied calmly as she shifted Shippo to a comfortable position.
Kagome watched Kikyo as she reached the top rankings, rank three belonged to Mika Sheng second belonged to Kei Shu and first Belonged to Midoriko MiLing the Head master of Shikon university. Kikyo soon saw Kagome was also ranked first and was the youngest on record to be ranked first and was also attending Shikon university.
"How the hell did you get the top ranking and how in hell did get in to Shikon university?! It's the top college university for mikos and a damn near impossible to get into! I applied to get in several times and got denied every time you had to have slept with someone to get in.
"I did not sleep with anyone since it's an all-girls college. I had applied there as well as a oxford, Yale, Harvard, and Tokyo, but my plans changed when I lost control of my powers after the accident so, I had to go because I had to learn to control my vast reiki. I had been planning to go to Tokyo university but my plains had to change unless I wanted to wipe out a large group of demons…"
Kagome turned to face Kaede and smiled.
"Bye Kagome I hope to see you some time next week"
"Ok Kaede I will be seeing you later" Kagome replied as she started walking toward the door.
Just as she reached for the door she since something heading toward her, throwing up a powerful barrier just in time to stop a wind blade from landing a critical hit on her person. Kagome opened the door and walking out as if nothing happened.
"we are out and heading home so let get you buckled in so we can get Seiran settled in his forever home." Kagome cooed to her son to get him to let go so she could drive home.
…
Kagome smiled as she pulled in to her drive way and parked her car. She turned to look in to the back seat only to see her son sleeping holding on to Seiran as if he was about to disappear from there life. Shaking her head, she turned the car off and unbuckled before she got out of the car. Closing the door softly she opened the back seat and leaned in and unbuckled her son before she slowly pried his fingers from Seiran collar and fur so she could carry him into the house.
"Seiran can you guard the groceries? I need to get Shippo to bed so he can finish his nap" Kagome asked the inu that was sitting in the car wagging his tail.
Cocking his head to the side he hopped on to the seat and turned to face the front before become statue like. Kagome giggled softly at the image he gave.
"If I did not know any better I would swear you were a stuffed animal" she teased before grabbing her keys and heading to the door to unlock it. Once inside she headed straight for Shippo's bed room to place him on the bed to hurry back out to the car to relieve Seiran from his guard duty. She smiled as she approached the car knowing he was still waiting for her to return.
Reaching the car, she gave Seiran a gentle pat and motioned for him to go on in the house or go to the yard if he needed. Without giving her a second glance he hopped out of the car as well as out her way making a beeline to the open house door.
Kagome shook her head as she grabbed some of the bag and headed on to the house only to return a few minutes later to get the last few bags to take in. setting them on the ground she closed the car door and locked it before picking the bags back up and returning inside with Seiran at her heals.
Looking at the clock on the stove that read 1:15 pm then turned to start putting the dog shampoo, conditioner, into the cabinet under the sink in the bathroom then going back to the kitchen and began to put the rest away. When Kagome came to the dog food she headed small food pantry and placing it and shutting the door before turning to Seiran.
"ok you get to choose where your bed goes." She said knowing he understood her since she had done some research which showed most breeds of mata were very smart. She watched him bold straight down the hall toward the wash room and sat down and waited for Kagome to follow.
Kagome grinned as she picked up his bed and followed him down the hall toward the wash room. She looked down at him as he is wagging his tail. Laughing lightly, she placed the bed on the floor to see what he would do with it.
Seiran pushed the bed to where he could just see around the corner to see both the front and back door before flopping down with a blissful sigh.
Shaking her head, she turned away she walked back to the kitchen to get dinner started after having a horrible run in with her cousin and her evil best friend kagura who is mated to Naraku the creepy spider half demon some though he was in the ninkyō dantai or Yakuza as some people liked to call it.. Shaking her head to get rid of those thoughts she walked down the hall to Shippo's room and incased it in a scent and sound barrier so anything she cooked or did would not wake him up before heading back to the kitchen to begin.
Kagome thought for a moment on which of Shippo's favorite dishes would like tapping her finger she walked over to a hand-crafted recipe box sitting on the counter top and began to flip through some of her old family recipes to see which one would work. Her hand stilled over homemade Gyoza Ramen. Smiling she pulled it out and placed it in a recipe stand so it would not get buried under the ingrediencies she was going to need before she gathered them she pulled on her apron. Turning to face the fridge she opened the doors and began to pull out pork followed by freshly picked nira chives, green onions and cabbage. dinger soy sauce and sesame oil was pulled out of the pantry. Knowing that it was going to take a while so she would need to grind the pork first then fix the vegetable.
...
After an hour kagome pulled out the last dumpling and placed it on the pile of cooling ones before cleaning up some of the dishes and pithing them away leaving only a pot to cook the ramen in. Kagome whipped her hands on her apron that was now covered in dough, flour, meat. and a few other things from the cooking.
"What are you doing mama?" said a sleep filled voice from behind her by the sound of sniffing.
"EEEKKKK!" was all that was heard from Kagome as she dropped the chop sticks she was using to test the ramen.
"Sorry mama I was not trying to scare" Shippo said as he giggled as he walked over to the counter to see what smelled so good.
Placing a hand over her heart as she turned to her son.
"Its fine, but I am seriously going to put a bell on you so you can't scare me." She teased as she looked dawn at him.
Shippo looked up with horror written across his face at the thought of bells hanging off him and ring every time he moved.
"please don't… what are you cooking" he said as he was the steamy dumplings on the plate.
"I am finishing up Gyoza Ramen I found the recipe and thought it would be good."
"It smells good when can we eat?"
"It's almost finished go get cleaned up and it will be ready when you get back."
"Yes ma'am" he called as he raced down the hall to the bath room.
Kagome laughed as she fixed two bowls and placed them on the table where the dumplings on either side of the bowl followed by two cups of fresh tea before heading to the pantry to fix Seiran his bowl of food.
"OK you two dinner is ready" Kagome called as she placed the Inu's food and water on the floor near the table so he could join in with them. The sound of thumping feet and paws filed the air as they raced in to the kitchen. Kagome watched her son take his seat at the table as Seiran went to his food bowl and sniffed at it curiously.
"Itadakimasu" Kagome and Shippo said at the same time followed by a light bark as they all began to eat.
…
Kagome looked at the clock that now read seven pm as she finished put the last of the dishes from dinner. "Shippo its almost time for bed so get your bath" she called from the kitchen.
"Aww do I have to?"
"Yes, you have school and we are going to the orphanage to help feed them also I don't want a crabby kit playing mean trick on people"
Kagome heard the shuffling coming from the den before hearing his paw like feet tapping against the hard wood flooring as he headed to the bath room.
"You better not use all the hot water up, I will need to get a bath too" she called just before the bath room door clicked closed. Now turning her attention to the Inu sitting just out of stepping range of her.
"Now what will you be doing to night" she said to the inu who just wagged his tail before she heads to her room to get her laptop to check on her investments and stock as well as doing some web browsing on their new family member after she get her bath.
Kagome's eyes scanned over the stock to see which ones had gained or lost some during the day. After a few moments, she sold some of the stock with the higher prices before buying a couple of stocks. Checking over it once more she logged out satisfied with what she sold. She closed the laptop before heading to the bathroom knowing Shippo was out and getting ready for bed.
Kagome knocked on the door before going in she spotted Shippo at the sink brushing his teeth as well as dressed for bed. With a smile on her face she picked up his brush and began to brush out his hair to keep it from being so tangled by the morning. She continued brush his long orange hair until it was silky.
"Ok Shippo, let's get you to bed." she said softly as yawn escaped him as he rubbed his eyes. Shippo looked up at her and nodded as he raised his arms from her to carry him. Not able to put up a fight she lifted him up and carried him to bed to tuck him in to bed.
"Sleep well my little demon" she whispered before kissing his forehead and walked out of the room closing the door behind her.
Kagome headed to her room to get a spaghetti strapped tank top, panties, and shorts before heading back to the bath.
Turning the knobs before stripping off and sticking her hand under the water to check to see if it was the right temperature, turning the cold-water knob slightly to add a little bit of cooler water. Once she was satisfied she stepped in to the shower and released a sigh as the semi hot water flow over her hour glass figure. Kagome then leaned her head back letting the water flow threw her hair and down the sides of her heart shaped face before she ran her hands threw to make sure it was completely wet before adding shampoo which she quickly worked from the roots of her raven blue hair out to the ends.
After a few minutes of working the shampoo in Kagome turned to face the shower head so she could begin to rinse the shampoo out. She ran her hand threw her long thick raven blue hair to ensure that no shampoo was left before stepping out from under the water and began to work the conditioner in from the ends up to the nap of her neck. Rinsing her hands off she could grab the blue rag hanging on show bar as well as her favorite bar of scented soap and began to lather the rag.
Closing her eyes as the scent of devil's trumpets fill the steamy air around her allowing her to relax before opening her eyes and placed the back in to the soap rack. Taking the rag in to her right hand as she begins to rub the sudsy rag against the back of her neck and ears before running it around to the front to scrub her exposed unblemished throat then running the rag over her face to get rid of any of the excess makeup that was not warn off during the day.
Putting the rag down she gathers some water in her hands and splashed her face to wash away the soap so she could see. Wiping away the extra water from her eyes so that she can see again before picking up the rag and soap. Placing the bar back down she began to scrub her feet up to her well-toned, sun kissed legs making sure she did not miss any dirt or sweat from the day. Kagome continued to work her way up her legs to her thighs, lifting her leg she ran the rag between her inner thighs and her perfectly shaped ass before rinsing the rag for the second time and began re soaping the rag again. This time Kagome took the rag and began to run it over each of her sun kissed arms before shifting the rag as she ran the rag between her breast. Swopping the rag between hands she began to rub the soapy rag under and over her ample breast to remove the sweat that had collected here throughout the day, before finishing with her back. Rinsing the rag for the final time she stepped fully under the shower head and began to rinse her hair. As the warm water fell onto her head and body she began to run her hands threw her long raven blue hair assuring all conditioner as well as the soap was washed from her body.
Sighing sadly as she turned off the water then reached out the shower door to grabbed her towel and wrapped it around her wet body to keep from getting cold. Kagome soon stepped out on to the bath mat only to grab another towel and wrapped it around her long-wet hair to keep it from dripping on to her skin. Unwrapping the towel from around her body she begins to run it over her arms then her legs and feet then hanging up the towels as she pulled the spaghetti strapped tank over her towel wrapped hair before she got it covering her chest to stomach followed by her panties and shorts.
Kagome walked over to the vanity and sat down on the cushion before pulling open the drawer where she kept her makeup, hair bands and brushes. Taking out her brush she began to brush her wet locks free of tangles that might have formed from being wrapped up in the towel satisfied there were no tangles she began to French braiding her hair before heading to her room for the night.
Getting back into bed she picked up her laptop she discarded when she went to get her bath so she could finish looking up information on black platinum inu mata. Clicking on links that gave her more common information like how to train, groom, feed as well as the collars and leases to use. Shaking her head and she looked for more than just standard just standard. A few moments before she gave up Kagome clicked a link that read History of Inu mata. Clicking on the link a page full of information on breeding, markings, pack marks, the battle form and where they were first discovered.
Kagome scrolled to where markings were shown in bold lettering and began reading and scrolling until she came to the end on the markings then she scrolled down to the bonding marks before continuing to read. Kagome could hardly believe what she was reading.
"Inu mata are very smart since they are able to understand human's speech and body language that help with understanding situations and emotions to determine what rank they are placed in a pack. Like there Diyokai counter parts they are scent oriented and they also can mark pack through the toxins in the saliva. Some alpha's carry the mark on their forehead but not always it also depends on the mata. Inu mata rarely choose to mark non-demon's as pack but not unheard of. In some extremely rare cases Inu mata have been known to tie humans their life span if they so choose to mark them as pack. Only two percent have ever had that experience. To be marked as pack my a Inu mata consist of a bite some were on the body resulting to a tattoo like marking the coloring of the marking on its body if it has any markings. There are still a lot unknown about Inu Mata's ability to mark pack. The other habits of inumata's are still being researched today since the inumata and nekomata are both rare species and little is known.
Kagome paused her reading as she tried to digest the information before she began to read again about the battle form when to breed though some of that info is still being learned and were they were first discovered. Taking a deep breath as she saved this page so she could go back to it later before closing the web browser and shutting her lap top down then placed it on the night stand for the night. Crawling under the covers she checked her alarm time before snuggling down and let that day's event disappear.
…
Beep… beep… be-… Kagome hit the alarm as she groaned before sitting up to look at the time that read six o'clock. Knowing that Shippo had to get to school she got up and pulled on a gray short sleeved that had a puppy playing in a flowerbed on the chest she had gotten out of her drawer followed by some skinny jeans. After finishing dressing she headed to the bathroom to wash her face and get her hair fix before going to get shippo up. Kagome began to apply the right amount of eye shadow to give a smoky effect to make her eyes pop before applying a natural color lip gloss before pulling the hair band out of her hair and giving it quick brush threw to fluff it up then checked herself one last time in the mirror as she headed out the bathroom door.
"Morning Seiran time to get going" she called as she passed by his bed.
Opening Shippo's door as she headed toward his bed sitting on the edge and began to gently shake him.
"Come on Shippo it time to get up or you will be late again" she cooed as she slowly began to tickle him since he was not responding to her shaking. She continued till she could hear his sleepy giggles before struggling to get away from her tickling.
"I'm up. I'm up!" he cried out threw his fit of laughter.
"Good, I would hate it if you missed school."
"Aww do I have to" he whined.
"Yes, you do if you ever want to get a good job or even have a chance of finding a good mate. Now get dressed and I will make you some breakfast." She said as she got off his bed and headed back out the door.
Shippo watched his mom leaving and got ready to curl back up to sleep.
"I will let Seiran jump on you if you're not out by the time I get it fixed." she called half way to the kitchen.
"Drats" he mumbled before sliding out of bed to put on his school uniform that consisted of a blue pants, a white shirt and black jacket with matching black shoes. Once he finished dressing he started walking down the hall.
Kagome smiled as she finished the last of the food just in time to see Shippo walking to his seat. Turning off the stove she placed the fish on the table then poured Seiran this bowl full of food and adding fresh water to his water bowl before placing them in the same place as the last night then took her seat across from Shippo.
"Itadakimasu" said Shippo and Kagome at the same time as Seiran bark. Kagome looked up at the clock on the stove that now read seven forty-five am.
…
Kagome pulled up to the entrance of the school and handed Shippo his bento box "I will be here to pick you up when school is out, if you need me for anything call Jakotsu's"
"Thanks, and yes ma'am" Shippo said as he gave Seiran a pat before hopping out the car and headed in to the school.
"Now it's you and me now Seiran so behave when we get to Jakotsu's" she said as she pulled back out in to the road heading toward his shop. Turing on her blinking she turned to the left then drove anther block before she slowed and turning in to the fist parking space then cutting the engine.
Turning to the back seat she hooked his leash to his harness before she got out and open the back-seat door to let him out as she took his leash.
"Come Seiran lets go meet Jakotsu" she said as he hoped out of the car and began to follow behind Kagome as they approached the shop. The sound of bells filled the air as Kagome pulled the door open before walking in with Seiran.
Kagome looked around at all the dresses and suits that were hanging on some of the racks or on the mannequins that were arraigned neatly threw out the store.
"Jak I know you're here so get you nose out of your designs" Kagome called threw the sea of dresses and suits.
"Kegs! OMG girl it's been a while since you have been here also I want to Congrats on the Engagement so when is the wedding, what kind of dress…."
"Whoaaaa…Hold on Back up what engagement matter of fact what wedding might I ask because I do not remember receiving a courting mark, or an engagement ring hell I did not even know I was dating any one."
"What do you mean kegs don't lie to me you and I have been girlfriends for far too long to pull that on me."
"I am not lying about any of this because I have not dated any one since I adopted shippo four years ago. The last person was Kouga and I caught him cheating on me with Ayame who I found out was pregnant with his pups. That ass thought he was going to have his cake and eat it too but he found out otherwise I just hope that he had straitened himself up.
"Well it's the latest story all over the T.V. and internet that you have excepted InuYasha proposal to be his second mate it also said he has commissioned you a wedding dress that once its finished the wedding will begin."
"Well I got news for that delusional ass the moment the dress arrives is the moment it is burned, and then he is going to be giving a restraining order because there is no way I am going to be his second mate."
"Why not Kegs you would never have to work a day in your life."
Reaching down she began to scratch Seiran ears to try to calm herself before she spoke.
"Jak you know I love you dearly but what just left your mouth just made me really want to kill you but it would remove a good person so I will let it pass and tell you the reason way I refuse to be second."
Jakotsu gulped and moved back knowing an angry Kagome is a dangerous Kagome especially with a black mata at her side
"In the feudal era taking a second mate was not unheard of or frowned upon in both human or demon culture because it showed off your wealth and power and it also ensured that there would be an heir from one or both female. If the male's current wife was unable to bear or refused to bear the hair the second would have to bear an heir but they were no better than a whore. It also gives the first mate the power to command the second mate because they are alpha female it also mean anything the second mate owns automatically belong to the first if they so choose." Kagome paused for a moment.
"If the first mate is truly cruel she could refuse to bear an heir so the second mate has to then turn around and conceive an heir so that the child by the second loses all chance of inheritance or titles that could be gained. In this time of day, a male who take on a second wife or mistress is not thought of highly and the mistress is shamed and dishonored in both her name as well as her family."
Jak was not sure how to reply to that but he honestly felt bad. "Sorry kegs I thought you willing excepted."
"I am not about to agree to be second to anyone and give up everything I have worked for to be some whore, I had actually come by to ask if you wanted to turn you little shop into a fashion industry."
"I would love that. How will we do it?"
"As soon as I finish my current degree I can get started on plans then from there we can decide, but right now I need to make that rock from brain half breed understand that pressuring me and harassing me will not change my mind to be his second. Also, yes you will be the only one to design any dresses that I will get in the feature."
"So, what are you planning to do about InuYasha"
"I plan on calling Bankotsu because he owes me a few favors over the years."
"Wait you don't mean Bankotsu Ryuzuki the lawyer that specializes in human, half demon and demon courts of law."
"Yep that's him" Kagome said popping the p.
"Awesome you choose my brother."
"What? I did not know you had a brother."
"Yep" Jak said as he popped the p.
"If I know InuYasha like I do he is going to try to bribe both your brother and the judge on to either throwing out the case or not take it at all, then I'm going to the press and publicly denounce any claim the baka has made."
"Before you call my brother can I ask why you brought your pooch here?"
"I brought Seiran with me so I could introduce him to you and vice versa." Kagome said only to be followed by Seiran barking in agreement.
"I am going to go call Banks so I well be back later Jak." Kagome said as she headed back toward the way they came.
Kagome patted Seiran as they began to walk toward the park. Reaching in to her purse Kagome grabbed her cell and began dialing Banks number then waiting.
After about the sixth ring the someone picked up. "Hello this is Banks."
"Hello banks long time no hear from it seems you got your hands full of cases."
"Kagome?"
"That is I."
"What can I do for you?"
"I believe I will be using one of my my many favors that you owe me."
"… … … it must me important if your calling me like this."
"oh, yes have you been keeping up with InuYasha?"
"Yes, and congrats by the wa…"
"Finish that and you will regret it Banks."
"So, the news was false then."
"More than you can believe, and what I want is the maximum restraining order for both InuYasha and Kikyo as well as a judge that can't be influenced by money."
"Shit kegs What the hell did this ass do to you."
"Well you already know information on taking second mates so I do not have to repeat any of that crap, he had been harassing me since I showed up to a meeting with his father a few days ago now he is publicly claiming I have excepted his offer to be his whore which automatically makes me look like I am cheap, desperate, and an easy lay no to mention it drags my name through the mud no to mention it looks like I have dishonored my family name."
"What started this?"
"Four to five years ago, InuYasha brought me a contract stating that if he took me as his mate I would provide him with an heir. I told him I would not sign it because it was too vague and it gave him the freedom to be mess around with other females which I was not going to tolerate. It was a few months after that he brought me another one which I read over carefully and found no loop hole for him to take or court another female and it became nulled if he took another mate before me. That is what got me out of his contract when in fact he was courting Kikyo which he never once mentioned to me or if he planned to tell me."
"How did you find that out."
"We… I mean Sango, Miroku, InuYasha and I had planned to go to the movies to see the newly released Fifty Shades of Gray on valentine's day we all were about to head in to get our seats for the movie when InuYasha said he need to do something so Sango, Miroku, and I headed on in and took our seats…" kagome paused before continuing " it was a few minutes before the movie when Sango and Miroku asked me to go get InuYasha when I found him, he was talking to my cousin Kikyo that's how I found out they were courting so the contract was nulled before it even had a chance for the ink to dry which I'm grateful for.
Kagome listened to the sound of scribbling on the other end for a bit knowing he was taking notes.
"I remember there was a horrible accident that day if my memory serves me right, the driver of the taxi was fine but the passenger was trapped with severe injuries, the car that hit the Taxi belong to Touga Taisho but his son Sesshomaru was using it that night."
"Yep, the person that was trapped was me, Banks… after the accident I lost control over my reiki because I somehow broke the seal that was restraining them that is one of the ways I got in to Shikon university… a few years later I get a letter in the mail from Touga Taisho to come in for an interview. The moment I stepped on to the top floor InuYasha started talking dirty and groping me so I put my two-and-a-half-inch T-strapped heels in to his shoe so when that did not work I kicked his family jewels." Kagome said as she smirked hearing a groan come from Bakes end of the phone.
"Damn kegs you know how to hurt a guy."
"That was my intent I did not plan to roll over and let him fuck me."
"You got a point their Kegs, I will get working on your case right away but first we need to let everyone know what InuYasha said is false so it going to be a day with the press."
"Good let me know when thing are going to be scheduled and keep me in the know about anything else."
"Sure, thing baby cakes."
"… … Never call me that again unless you want your wife to find out."
"DON'T ! you helped me get her I do not want to lose her."
"Ok, talk to you later Banks"
"bye kegs."
Kagome ended the call and headed back to jacks to discuss a few of the plans on creating his fashion industry.
Kagome looked up as she approached Jak's shop as she placed her phone back in to her purse. Stopping at the door she pulled it open for a second time and walked back in with Seiran following behind her.
…
Kagome soon finished talking with Jak about the possible plans of the fashion industry though neither of them had come up with a good name or how they were going to get demons or people alike get behind them. Many would just higher Jakotsu to just design and give a rough draft of the dress and that was it but jack did so much more than just make them. They had agreed to discuss this more in depth after Kagome finished her final exams to get her Master's degree.
"Seiran it time to go get Shippo" Kagome called knowing he was going to come running.
"Your lucky woman kegs most mata like him don't do much what's your secret to keeping him like that." Jak asked as he pointed his painted nails at the excited inu.
"The only thing I to is treat him like a family member not standard dog he's to smart to be treated that way not to mention he looks nothing like a standard dog" kagome replied bac as Jak come up and huge her good bye.
"I will remember that for when I get one. See you next time Kegs and we will discuss more about the shop later ta-ta" he said as Kagome and Seiran walked out the door.
Getting in to the car they headed back out to get shippo from school.
Kagome had gotten lucky when her son hopped in the car only a few minutes after she pulled in to the pickup and drop off lane.
"Mama, Seiran so glad to see you I thought to day was never going to end, also what are we going to have for supper."
"Not too sure yet I was hoping you would choose."
"So can we have Pizza and ice-cream?"
"I see why not that also mean we have to get something for Seiran to eat as well"
"YES! So how about fresh boneless peace of stake?"
Kagome was about to speak when she heard Seiran huff at the sound of boneless stake and started laughing."
"Sorry Shippo Seiran want bones an all because the bones are good for inu mata not standard dogs."
"oops sorry Seiran I forget that you better than an average dog"
Seiran leaned over and licked Shippo to except his apology before settling down for the ride.
…
It was not long before they arrived home and settled.
"I will order pizza once you get your homework finished" Kagome called from the kitchen where she was getting out the stakes to thaw for Seiran.
Kagome could hear Shippo groaning about homework and knew he hated doing it she could not really blame him since she also has three papers and one report due soon.
"Yes ma'am" he called back and set to work knowing his mom would not give in so easily he sometimes wondered how his mother was a Miko and not a demon because she acted more like a kitsune mother than anything else.
A few hours went by until he was finished cleaning up and putting away his book he headed to the kitchen, so they could order the pizza.
Kagome smiled when the pizza arrived. Following her normal routine setting the table and Seiran food where he could get it.
It seems like time had flown before kagome realized it. Shippo was bathed and in bed before she knew it. Following shippo example she took a quick bath and headed to her room to work on some of her papers before she finely dozed off to the soft sounds of rain hitting the roof.
