" You scared me half to death!" Kagome said when her heart slowed down. She ignored Sesshomaru and looked at the massive raven haired man who stepped foreword out of the shadows.
The stranger passed Sesshomaru, and grabbed her hand.
" Please except my deepest apologies, Lady Kagome. Allow me to introduce myself, I am Lord Rhys Bellisario Lord of the Northern lands. I also happen to be the only man able to tolerate your mate's ego for long periods of time." He said and kissed her hand.
Kagome laughed when Sesshomaru growled at Rhys, but the man just ignored him and tucked Kagome's arm threw his.
" So tell me. How did the Lord of all things frosty over there manage to win such a beautiful lady as yourself?" He asked as they walked down the path. kagome blushed, and glanced up into Rhys's smiling face.
" Its along story, but I have known Sesshomaru for years, and when he wasn't trying to kill me and my friends he way okay. At the moment I refuse to acknowledge the fact that we mate because I don't remember being asked." She said with a glare over her shoulder at Sesshomaru.
" Ah I see, But you to must have reconciled given that you are with child." Rhys asked. Kagome felt her anger rise again.
" No that happen when SOMEONE decided to knock me up in a hot spring!" She whipped around and stabbed a finger into his chest.
" Did it even cross you mind that I had plans for my life! Maybe I didn't want to have children right now. For all you know I could hate kids or I could have had a husband or something in my time but you didn't even think about any of this did you? No yo just do what ever you want and to hell with what anyone else wants!" Sesshomaru eyes widened.
" You do not want our child?" he asked in a shocked voice, remembering her claiming to love the babe.
" I do now that I've had a little time to think about it, but in the beginning no I didn't. If I had been able to stay in my time I probably would have given the baby up for adoption after it was born, I don't know I never had the chance to think about it." Kagome told him, her rage fading to sadness. Rhys looked from angry person to the other.
" I will double back, and hurry Sam and Kai along. She will be as happy to meet you as I have been Lady Kagome. Sesshomaru we will be here by sunrise." Rhys said and quickly left the two alone.
Kagome and Sesshomaru stared at one another as Rhys's footsteps faded.
" I believe we need to talk." Sesshomaru stated. Kagome nodded and followed Sesshomaru into the castle.
~ With Inuyasha ~
Inuyasha looked up at his brothers keep, his lips curling.
" Kagome is mine you bastard, as soon as I kill you and your whelp everything will go back to normal" Inuyasha said to himself, smiling.
