a/n So I reread this numerous times before starting this chapter it was a bit difficult but hopefully this is a good chapter. I do not know Inu-Yasha or any of its affiliates. Happy reading. Itachisgirlfriend23

Oh before I forget I wanted to give a shout out to one of my favorite authors and readers Raven2010 I just wanted you to know you are awesome and that I am dedicating this chapter to you. I hope ya like it.

Kagome appears in the room her father is pacing and smiles. ''Father cease your pacing and tell me what is wrong." Her Father sighs and says "I have to announce you to the other lords and announce that you are available since you are now of age to be mated. But I don't know how to approach this matter." Kagome smiles at him her father and says "We shall hold a ball and request that we hold off on my mating until I have completed my training to control my powers, we will have to explain to them what happened and I am sure as long as my hand is promised by a certain time the elders will have no reason to object neither will the other lords."

She nods before holding her hand to her head and says "Father I am not feeling very well maybe we should hold the ball in two weeks' time." "He picks her up and sighs "You have overdone it. You are supposed to be resting not up and walking around.

Your body has not regained its strength. "He then carries her to the healers den and lays her down to rest. She smiles sleepily at him and closes her eyes. He looks up to see his eldest daughter in the doorway. He smiles at her and asks "Would you like to help her plan her ball?" Ayame nods and whispers "It may be enough to keep her in bed and distracted." Her father smiles and looks between his two beautiful daughters a hint of sadness touching his face at the thought that they are grown up and ready to leave the den.

Ayame smiles and nods to her father before motioning for the door wanting to let Kagome get some much needed rest. As they are leaving Kagome mumbles a name that makes then freeze with shock and disbelief "Sesshomaru."

After about three hours Kagome wakes up to her sister and Kouga conversing quietly. She smiles and stretches as she is sitting up. Kouga notices that she is awake first and smiles "Kagome you are up. I hope you are feeling a bit better." She smiles and nods before frowning "I feel much better but I am getting a little bit hungry and for red meat." Ayame giggles and says "Demons eat mostly red meats say goodbye to vegetables and fruit for the most part, and fires, cooked meat is also a thing of the past." Kagome wrinkles her nose and looks at Kouga who just nods in agreeance.

She sighs before grinning and taking a deep breath smelling something tangy and gamey. Ayame and Kouga smirk a little as Sakaara walks in with a bowl of what smells like boar and deer meat. Sakaara smiles pleasantly at Kagome "I thought you might be ravished after you woke up so I gathered up some meats that I thought would be more appetizing." Kagome's eyes light up and she nods ecstatically. "By the way I am Sakaara and if you need help with anything you can always come and ask me." Kagome graciously take the bowl from Sakaara and gives her a brilliant smile "Thank you so much.: Sakaar just waves her hand in dismissal.

"Not at all after all you are a princess. Besides I am supposed to teach you the ups and downs of demon society. Now eat before the meat goes cold, it is less appetizing cold trust." Kagome nods and moans in appreciation as the first piece of meat touches her lips.

They all giggle and she ignores them instead she chooses to focus on the meal in front of her. After finishing her meal Sakaara takes the bowl from her and says "It is a beautiful day out, I would recommend a soak in the sun the west gardens are completely empty for the day." Kagome smiles and nods "I would love to spend some time in the sun would you guys escort me there since I have no idea where I am going." The two smile at her and agree easily.

Kouga lifts Kagome into his arms, even though she protests he gently reminds her that she has already put too much strain on her body once today, she concedes quickly not wanting to miss an opportunity to go outside.

a/n so I know I ended this chapter early but I am still working on what I want to happen next so bear with me you guys. Please leave as review and give me your opinions as they are always welcome.
