Chapter 4: Work Tag A Long, And Party Plans...
(Disclaimer: See Chapter1, on with the story!)
Kagome was the first to wake up, glancing at the clock and seeing that it was 5:30 a.m. knowing that she would have to get up soon to get Naraku's bath ready, and his suit, and get Rin ready for her last day of school until summer break was over. As she had carefully got out of the bed, slipping on his black t shirt, that her and her mate had shared for the past five years, going to the kitchen and getting the coffee on and starting her routine, running up the stairs and preparing Naraku's shower. She then set out his black armoni tailored suit with a purple silken shirt that buttoned down; then came his black socks and his expensive black shoes.
Then the young woman had came in Rin's room and picked her clothes out quietly, as to not to disturb her little baby or that cute kitten that's somewhere in the room, shutting the door quietly again, and getting Naraku's breakfast ready. She had heard him get out of bed, walk kind of groggily to the bathroom, to get ready upon hearing the shower run Kagome had started to make breakfast that consisted of fruit, oatmeal, and toast. As the shower had ended, within moments Naraku had came down stairs putting the last of the fishing touches on his suit, Kagome had smiled.
As Naraku had gone to the table and took the cup of coffee that Kagome had given him, he knew that she had already put in 2 creams just the way he liked it, and handing him his paper. Placing his breakfast on the table, ''Thank you my mate,'' He had said in approval, while glancing up at the kitchen clock that had read 6:30; Kagome had ran up the stairs to get Rin up- 'We have an obedient mate, and daughter, a son next time...' Yes indeed, he smirked again, as Kagome came back down stairs ''Rin will be ready in a few minutes.'' Naraku had nodded ok.
While their daughter was getting ready, Kagome had poured herself some orange juice and sat on his lap, as he had put his arm around her ''I have been thinking my mate,'' Came Naraku's voice as he was taking a sip of his coffee, ''That I have been pretty unfair to you, by keeping you cooped up in this house all day, since it is a half day for me today how about I take you to work with me and then we'll go to lunch; afterward some shopping. By that time we will be done in enough time to pick up Rin, and get some ice cream and watch a couple of movies here at home...'' Naraku had informed Kagome as she felt his arm go around her pale frame, to pull her closer to him.
''O-ok,'' Kagome had said while their lips met, it was a chance to get out of the house, true Naraku would be there, but she would be able to feel the sun and the air, ''Good morning mommy and daddy!'' Rin had said in her morning voice. As they broke apart, ''Good morning princess, how did you sleep?'' Naraku had asked while he had poured Rin some milk, ''Good morning my sweet Rin,'' They quickly ate and Kagome cleaned up and put the mess away, running upstairs and getting ready, taking a fast shower and putting on a pair of casual yet dressy jeans and a red long sleeved shirt; putting on some makeup.
Slipping on a pair of red wedges, and going down the stairs as Rin and Naraku were waiting for her, Kagome had grabbed a book, and her purse; Naraku had taken her free hand and they had went to the bmw. Naraku slipped in the driver's seat, Kagome helping Rin in the back and buckling her in, then she had slipped into the passenger's seat; both parents buckled up; and drove up the hill as they had passed by Sesshomaru's home, he was pulling out of the driveway. Without both Rin and Naraku knowing Kagome's and Sesshomaru's eyes had locked for a brief moment, Kagome had felt safe at that second, as Naraku had drove by to drop Rin off at Shikon Elementary school first.
As soon as they pulled at the school, Kagome and Naraku hugged and kissed their daughter and told her that they would pick her up at exactly at 3:30, their baby girl had nodded, and went running to see her friend Kanna. Both had gotten back into the car and drove to Naraku's law firm, 'Tama And Sons At Law,' As he had pulled in his parking space, him and Kagome had gotten out and walked in hand and hand, as soon as they were walking by the security and other workers they were being waved at and smiled at.
As the elevator dinged to the very top floor, where Naraku's office was at, with his hand twined in with Kagome's, she was getting looks of either shock or envy *They shouldn't envy me,* Kagome had bitterly thought to herself. If they knew what she was enduring for the past five years, as he had opened the door that had led to his very large and lavish office ''Have a seat my mate, not there'' Catching her going to sit on the love seat, patting his leg, ''Here...'' He had purred, with the book still in her hand, she had sat upon his lap, wrapping arms around her.
As the hours had ticked by, a knock at the door alerted them, ''Come,'' The door had opened and there was Hiten, one of Naraku's proud boot lickers, the thunder red eyed demon locked eyes with Kagome briefly before walking up to his boss's desk. With his hand full of files, ''The files have been signed and Sesshomaru and his client are waiting for your documents.'' Naraku had nodded silently and handing Hiten a different nilla folder, ''Send them in, and have those signed for me, thank you Hiten, afterwards you may go home.'' The younger man had nodded and lefted the room to show Sesshomaru and his client in.
As Sesshomaru and his client had entered the office, Kagome had looked back up from her book 'The Stand' By Stephen King, the soon to be 21 year old was slyly taking in Sesshomaru's appearance, to which the silver hared distinguished inu taiyoukai, was wearing a white tailored Armani suit and a sky blue button down long sleeved blouse. Sesshomaru had his trademarked silver locks in a low pony tail; and his expensive glasses that were perched on his nose.
Naraku had looked up and grinned slightly ''Good afternoon Sesshomaru, and Myoga, what can I do for you?'' It made Sesshomaru sick to see Kagome like this 'Mate, that filth dares!' Sesshomaru's beast was roaring out, ignoring his 'inner creature' focusing his attention on Naraku; who was stroking Kagome's hair away from her neck so that he could deliberately see the mark that Naraku had placed her last night. Kagome was silent, she had this strange dream last night that the man in question that was in front of her, Sesshomaru Taisho, was in her dreams. Sesshomaru had cleared his throat, ''I came for the papers that you called in.'' The man had said while looking at Kagome again.
The dark hared red eyed youkai noticed, ''Sesshomaru, I do not think that you have met my mate/wife, Kagome, the beautiful mother of our daughter.'' He just 'had' to say that, ''Hello Kagome, how have you been?'' inclining his head towards the fare skinned girl that was still perched on Naraku's knee. Kagome smiled a bit and said ''Sesshomaru, you're a lawyer now? Time flys how's everyone?'' To which Sesshomaru had replied ''They are well, and missing you,'' Just before Sesshomaru could even continue, his phone had rang ''Just and moment, *answering* Hello father, yes, actually she is in front of me, he wants to speak with you briefly;'' Naraku had nodded with his ok.
Kagome had taken the cell and talked to the man that was like a second father to her, ''Inu Papa, how are you? I know I missed you guys too, wow you remember my birthday? Yea it's within a couple of days, Oh papa, you don't have to throw me a party,'' At that second Naraku had spoke in Kagome's right ear, where the phone was at, ''Mr. Taisho, I believe that will fine, I will speak to you later about the details, here is your son, hand him the phone; my wife/mate.'' Kagome had said 'here you are papa' and handed the iphone back to Sesshomaru, and he took it spoke to his father for another second and hung up.
Sesshomaru had turned his attention back onto the 'couple' in front of him, just as he was getting ready to say something the door had barged opened and there was Kaguya, looking pissed off! Naraku had a blank face of nonchalance, ''You bastard, you promised me that you would leave that weak and pathetic human for me!'' Naraku sort of squinted, ''As I explained to you yesterday slowly, because I know that you are a bit slow, I am never going to cheat on my wife/mate again as I remembered you are fired, now do get out of my site before my claws rip through you.'' Before Naraku could even react, or anyone else, Kagome was tackled out of the window by Kaguya, ''AHHHHHH!" She screamed, while Kaguya floated back up laughing.
As Naraku hissed and growled he had ripped through the jealous woman, as he had turned around, he didn't see Sesshomaru...
As Kagome was falling and screaming, she had seen a silver blur catch her bridal style, ''S-Sesshomaru!'' As they floated back up to Naraku's office well out of hearing range ''You are alright, I am by you now,'' He had whispered to her, while increasing his speed and flying back into the crashed window. As Naraku had turned around, still hissing and snarling, over the deceased form of Kaguya, as Myoga was cowering in the corner; as Sesshomaru had floated in the office with a scared Kagome in his strong arms. Sesshomaru had reluctantly had set her down, ''Mate come,'' Naraku had panted out, and Kagome had obeyed, pulling her close to him and burying his nose in her throat, ''I never thought that I would say this, but thank you Sesshomaru for saving my mate.'' Sesshomaru, had let out a 'Hn,' It had made the man sick to see this.
After the two men had left, Naraku and Kagome had decided to go to lunch, ''My sweet mate, I am glad that you were are hurt, I tell you what how about I take you to that fancy Italian restaurant that you like?'' As he had looked over and held onto her hand; that had the slave marker upon it. True Sesshomaru saved Naraku's pale and frail wife/ mate, picking her pale delicate hand and placing a kiss upon it, as they had pulled into the Italian Place... getting out and walking hand in hand...
Kagome couldn't help but feel safe in Sesshomaru's arms, unlike Naraku, Sesshomaru gave off a certain aura about him that no one but his enemies feared him. People respected the Taisho name, everyone who was anyone they were always invited to a Taisho party, no matter whose, they always made her and her sister feel like part of the family, no matter what. As they ordered and carrying out their plans, and her 'mate/husband' had bought her a new black dress that was backless and had wafted down to her mid thighs and nearly opened in the front, and black high heels, Naraku had called Sesshomaru back and told him that it was fine for the elder inu demon to throw Kagome's 21st birthday at the Taisho Manner:
For a brief happy thought, that had ventured in Kagome's head, hopefully Kikyo will be at the party... not to mention a certain angel that had swooped down to save her today...
