Sesshomaru sighed as he meandered down the hallway from the bedroom until he reached the kitchen, and then flicked on the light before making his way over to the fridge and opened it when his beast chimed in. Our mate is upset.
He had to resist the urge to roll his eyes at the obvious as he thought, No shit. We kidnap her, bring her here, lock her in with us, drug her, then deflower her in what was essentially an act of rape- and you're becoming a pain in my ass because she's pissed about it. Get over yourself already. She should be pissed at us, hell she has every reason to want to cut our cock off and shove it down our throat.
Her sorrow- it just...unsettles us.
I know. But there is little that I can do about that. It isn't like we have a magic wand that can erase what we have done to her. Sesshomaru thought in annoyance as he shut the fridge and then turned to the island where he had laid everything out to fix his mate a nice meal since she hadn't had the chance to eat yesterday before he had drugged her.
He'd bet that she must be fairly hungry by now. Especially now that she was carrying his pup.
Slipping a knife from it's place, he then turned his attention towards everything that needed to be cut up, that was currently laid out on the counter top. He had everything from crisp green lettuce, cucumbers, cherry tomato's, and pieces of several carrots, to sweet green peas, a block or two of cheese. To some sausage, bacon, steak and chicken.
Grabbing the cucumbers, he made quick work of dicing one of them into small pieces before doing the same to the carrots, cutting up the cherry tomato's, and then breaking apart the lettuce and ripping the leaves from it.
Yes...I know. But as much as I wish that things could have been different- I do not regret my choice. She will be a more than suitable mate to us.
You say that as if you know something? Sesshomaru thought as he took a moment to dig out a large bowl to dump everything that he had cut up so far, in before turning back to his task and grabbing the blocks of cheese to cut up next, only to pause when his beast never responded to his words.
Damn him. Why couldn't he just answer his question for once? Why did he feel the need to hide every little damn thing? He just didn't understand. If he knew something about their mate that Sesshomaru's logical side didn't then shouldn't his beast share that knowledge?
Sighing again as he finished up his task with the cheeses, he then carefully collected the pieces and dumped them in the bowl with the rest of the salad ingredients and then picked up the bag of peas and tore the top off of it and dumped them in the bowl as well and then grabbed some tongs and used them to mix everything together for several moments before then turning to preparing the meats.
He placed the steaks on a cutting board that he had lying out and then grabbed some spices and stuff from the spice rack and cabinet and then carried them back over to the island and set them down on the counter and began to season the meat so that he could cook it.

Kagome sat on the bed for a good long while trying to wrap her head around everything that had happened to her in the past little while since awakening. Her quick mind mulling over everything that the male had said to her about being his mate and Queen of the western lands, to him no longer being in heat, to her being pupped.
At which point her mind just seemed to shut down.
Apparently everything was beginning to overwhelm her more than a little bit. If this continued even for a little bit longer she might start flaring her miko powers and screaming bloody murder.
Feeling the beginnings of a headache start to form somewhere behind her eyes, she decided to go ahead and make use to the bathroom and relieve herself and shower while she could since today was obviously going to be a far longer and more distressing day than yesterday had been for her.
(**************************************************************************************************************************************)
The steaks were cooking on the stove while Sesshomaru worked to cut up some sausage and bacon so that if his mate didn't wish to eat the carefully prepared steak- then she would have a greater variety of meat to choose from, after which he would need to cook some Tamagoyaki, and fix some miso soup. Both were also just in case his mate didn't wish to eat a conventional meal cooked by him.
However even if everything didn't get eaten by himself and his mate- he didn't mind since whatever was left over could be used for lunch or even a snack later on.
Once he was finished cutting up and placing the sausage and bacon in another frying pan on the stove to cook, he then turned back to what was left on the counter top and huffed.
Maybe he had gone a little bit overboard in his plans to cook. Especially since all he had done so far was pull out more things that absolutely necessary and make a big mess.
He'd have to put the chicken back up along with what was left of the sausage and bacon, otherwise it would all go to waste. And he didn't want that to happen. Especially since he planned to stay in the bunker for the next several weeks so that he could get to know his new mate.
