Author's blabbering: Again, this is short :/ sorry! XD

To clarify some things!

-Jewel's face covered with the veil except her eyes. Sorry :/ I was rushing last time. Hehe.

-She's a witch. Not a demon. Not a priestess. Not an angel. So yeah, she's a witch-'witch'. Angry mobs with torches and stuff. That's why she's injured, mortals from the past hated witch. I mean, come on! Witches are cool! I wanted to be a witch and a vampire 3:) yeah! Awesome! [thumbs up]

-About Jewel's history her life was simple. A noble fell in love with her then he asked to marry him, but she refused. He consulted a bad witch to make the villagers be mad at her. Simple right?

-She didn't used her powers that time. She's too good to harm them.

Thank you ! EntropistAnon! Hugs and kisses from me :*

Disclaimer: Nope, I don't own them! Rumiko-san owns fluffly-sama.

Enough the blabbering, enjoy? :P

Forever

Chapter 3: Simple.

How simple things can make new and better beginnings. -I finally found someone.

Stepping into the dark room she had borrowed, Jewel didn't expect to stay here for days. She had expected after the day she confronted about her life to the demon lord she would be on her way finding a new home for her. Sesshoumaru insisted for her to stay here while his men find her a suitable village to live, well just looked at that, flussly-sama is all gone soft. Maybe it's the weather?

"Jewel-san!"

Jewel heard Rin's cheerful voice she remembered that she and Rin will be playing today since Rin had finished doing all of her studies.

"Yes Rin, I'll be coming."

Jewel had stepped out from the mansion, seeing only the guard from the well, she wonders where could Rin be? She was going to ask the guard if he'd seen the little girl, two small arms had wrap around her waist.

"Rin! My goodness you scared me!"

"Hihi! I'm sorry, come on! Let's play tag!" she said between her giggles.

"Then... You're it!" Jewel said then she touches Rin's shoulder.

(Unknown Room)

Into the dark room the sound of his shoes echoed through the hall, his kimono slowly swayed into the air. He stopped his tracks at the end of the hall, he pressed a secret button under the antique table. The maroon walls slowly opens to the side, after entering the dark room the walls had began to move to the other side. After the walls had completely closed he continued his tracks, lost in thoughts his left foot had stepped onto a dark red flower petal, while staring at the petal his hand reached the door knob. Steeping into the dark room, Sesshoumaru lights up the torches one by one. After lighting the torches he walk towards the cabinet near a brown table, he took out a dress from the cabinet. He sat on to the nearest chair, smoothing the wrinkles of the dress. Every touch; the minty scent filled his nose it's like a mount of bubbles came out from the dress and it pops! He pulled up the dress and he pressed it onto his nose, lingering the smell of his beloved. It's been years since she and his child had gone, they were not gone as in 'left' or ran away, they'd die.

-Fifty years ago-

"What do you mean she and my child can't live?"

His amber eyes glared at the family priestess, not breaking any eye contact he was furious yet he still managed to have his demeanor. The miko sighed and said.

"I'm sorry m'Lord. But Lady Kumiko is ill, she's very very lucky to breath at this moment."

"..."

The miko lowered her eyes to the ground, "It's because of the blood you had given to her, the mating was completely successful but—"

"But?"

Tears started to pour from her eyes, "But she kept it. Lady Kumiko kept her illness from you it's because she didn't want you to worry."

Sesshoumaru tighten his grip around the cloth he was holding, not showing any weakness to the miko who was abundantly shaking in front of his desk.

"Leave."

With that the miko bowed down to Sesshoumaru and had leaved his study. After the scent of the miko was gone, he stood up from his seat and using his superhuman speed, he was standing in front of his and her room. Entering their room, he found his mate sitting gracefully on her rocking chair. She is huge! It's like a big ball plastered on her belly. Kumiko is 7-months pregnant, after knowing that she was pregnant, Sesshoumaru had gone soft; more protective than ever. Kumiko placed her hand on top of her belly, he can hear her humming. Ah yes, he knew that song—it was their song none the less.

"Ah, Sesshoumaru. I thought you were having a meeting with your subordinates?" she asked.

He slowly shook his head, "No," he began. "There was an emergency so I have to postpone the meeting." Sesshoumaru walks towards to his mate, gently touches her hand like it was the most fragile thing in the world (Ugh, yeah she's very fragile.) then he plants a kiss on her forehead.

Kumiko looked at him puzzled, "Something wrong?"

He shook his head, "No, nothing. How are you?"

She grins like there's nothing bad happened, "I'm fine!"

Sesshoumaru frowned at that moment, he knew that she was lying.
