I don't own any of the characters in Inuyasha.

Chapter 9

Everything wasn't going too well for Kagome these couple of weeks. She wasn't able to go to school so she had to do all her schools work at home. Most of the time she didn't have time to do it because she was either really tired or taking care of her pups. The pups took all of her energy; they were so needy, they always wanted their mother. It always takes her hours to put them to sleep even with her family's help. They always want to play, eat, or want their mother to read them a book. The pups were growing really quickly except for Tenge; he grew at a human speed. Right now the pups are being taken cared by Inutashio and Sasuki. Kagome was sleeping in her mate's arms in their room.

Tenge was crying and Inutashio was trying everything he can to make him laugh or smile. Inutashio was making funny faces and making a fool of himself. The other pups were laughing at him from the crib and Sasuki was trying hard not to laugh.

"You're making a fool out of yourself father." Sesshomaru said.

"Shouldn't you be with your mate?"

"Yes but I couldn't take it anymore. I don't like hearing my pups crying. Put them to sleep, I'll take care of Tenge."

Sesshomaru picked up Tenge and he stopped crying. He was pouting and Sesshomaru already knew he wanted his mother. He walked to their room and handed Tenge to a very sleepy Kagome. She took him and lay him down beside her. Sesshomaru lay down next to his mate and continued to sleep. Tenge was between them and was giggling.

"Shh. Mommy is sleeping." Sesshomaru said.

He blinked and looked at his father. He grabbed Sesshomaru's hair and put it in his mouth.

"No." Sesshomaru said and took his hair away from Tenge's hand.

"I can't sleep with you talking to Tenge."

"I didn't mean to; go back to sleep."

"Okay but please don't talk, let him do what he wants, it's not going to hurt you."

Sesshomaru kissed Kagome forehead. "Goodnight my mate."

"Goodnight."

Kagome fell asleep and in ten minutes she was in a deep sleep. Tenge got really bored so he decided to go to sleep. His father was sleeping and was ignoring him every time he pulled his shirt. They stayed like that for three hours when Inutashio entered the room, slamming the door shut. He was behind the door trying to breath.

"What's going on?" Kagome asked.

"Your children are evil."

"They're your grandchildren and if you have a problem with them then deal with it." Sesshomaru said.

"Be nice Sesshomaru."

"Listen to your mate."

"What's wrong Inutashio and who are with the children?"

"They are horrible, they are monsters...."

Sesshomaru growled.

"Let him finish."

"They were trying to color my face; once I said its time to paint they went crazy. I was running away from them for an hour."

Kagome started to laugh when she looked at Inutashio clothes.

"It's not funny Kagome."

"I'm sorry Inutashio but you act like they were trying to kill you. It's just paint; they did the same thing to Sesshomaru." Kagome said laughing even harder.

Tenge made a noise and Sesshomaru picked him up; his eyes began to water.

"Kagome, Tenge wants you."

Kagome calmed down and took Tenge from Sesshomaru. She started to make faces and Tenge smiled. Sesshomaru got off the bed and opened the door. Yamasaki, Yuna, and Ayumi had a cup of paint in one hand and the other hand covered in paint.

"No more playing, its time for dinner so go to grandma and clean up."

They left running to their room to their grandma and forgot all about Inutashio.

"You can go now." Sesshomaru said.

"Thank you son."

Sesshomaru closed the door and looked at Kagome.

"Do you feel better?"

"Yes."

"You sure?"

"Yes I am." Kagome said not looking at Sesshomaru.

"Father and Mother won't mind if they tend to the pups for a while longer after dinner."

"They already did enough for us."

"We haven't spended time together for a really long time."

"We just did and no I'm not letting your parents take care of them after dinner."

"I wasn't talking about that."

Kagome got off the bed and walked to Tenge's room.

"The answer is still no."

"I have been waiting for months Kagome and I can't want any more."

"Find a whore out there to satisfy your needs because I'm not going to. I already have kids who need so much attention; I don't need another child to take care of."

"I am not a child and I'm not going to get some random whore to satisfy my needs. The only one who's going to my bed is you my mate."

"I said no and it stays as a no."

Sesshomaru growled. "You will do what I said."

"No I'm not, you don't own me."

Sesshomaru eyes were pink. "Then get out of my house."

"Fine."

Kagome took a bag and stuffed some of the babies' clothes. Sesshomaru grabbed her hand and took the bag.

"You can go, they stay."

"They are my children and they go where ever I go."

"Stop it you two. They can hear you." Sasuki said.

"Blame it on your son; he's the one who started it."

"Don't say that it's Sesshomaru's fault when it's yours."

"It's none of your fault. Stop arguing, the children are crying; even though Tenge can't understand you, your other children can and they aren't too happy. Kagome go sit in the rocking chair and you sit down on the couch."

They both went to where Sasuki told them to sit.

"Okay Kagome tell me what's going on."

"Sesshomaru wanted me to let you and Inutashio to continue watching the kids after dinner so we can spend sometime together. When he explained what he meant I told him no. He wouldn't take a no as my answer even after I've told him why I said no he still keeps saying yes. He thinks that just because he's my mate and the alpha that I have to follow everything he says."

"Well Kagome in a way Sesshomaru was right but what you said was wrong. I know you haven't gotten a lot of time to sleep or do your school work, and that you also have to take care of you pups but you can't completely ignore your mate. He's making sure you eat properly, helping you with the pups and getting enough sleep. He's putting you ahead of everything and I think he should at least get something he wants."

Kagome put Tenge in the crib and left the room.

"Kagome get back here we aren't finished yet."

"I don't care about what you said; I'm not going to do it. My answer is still no."

Sesshomaru got off the couch and went to Kagome. He stopped her from entering the room by grabbing her and putting her against the wall.

"What would make you say yes? I can't wait any longer Kagome; I don't want anyone but you. I'll do anything for you if you just say yes."

Kagome looked away from him and stayed quiet.

"Look at me."

Kagome didn't turn her head. Sesshomaru grabbed her chin softly and turned her face to his.

"Open your eyes."

Kagome still didn't listen to him so he bit her where her mating mark was very softly.

"Please Sesshomaru. I'm not going to change my mind but when I do I'll tell you."

"Tell me why."

"I don't want to talk about it."

"Tell me Kagome, unless you want me to force you."

"Okay I change my mind."

"You're just saying that so you don't have to tell me. What are you hiding Kagome."

"Nothing."

"Liar. Don't make me force it out of you."

"Can we go to the room first?"

He nodded his head and followed Kagome to their room.
