The young blue eyed beauty was busy working in the fields thinking of what today will bring.
Today would be the start of a whole new journey.
One she NEVER pictured herself on.
Courting with Sesshomaru.
She had yet to completely understand fully to why Sesshomaru would want someone like her.
She understands she's attractive to a point she suppose but she has seen the many demonesses that practically flings themselves on him on a daily basis.
One even more beautiful and sexy than the last.
She shook her head in a discreet frustration.
Sesshomaru was the very being that every and all women want.
Young, gorgeous, mysterious, all powerful just thinking of all his qualities were orgasmic.
Just the sound of his name makes you hot and bothered.
It was thrilling yet frightening.
How could someone like her ever live up to let alone attract someone like him ?
She could never see herself living like him.
Being waited on hand and foot.
Cooped up in a castle with no one to call friend.
Having no say in almost every decision.
To her, Sesshomaru was the kind to live up to demon traditions.
Traditions such as: A female mate is to be seen but not heard unless instructed by her mate.
The female is the caretaker of the household.
Nurse for the pups as well as the cook.
Basically she would be a house wife and that was something she definitely did not want but what worried her was if they were to ever have pups, would he love them and care for them.
Even though they have a truce, she knew he still not approve of his half brothers' blood.
Would the council approve of their mating as well?
It is no secret that the demon council was a prejudice against humans.
It will be hell for Sesshomaru if they were to mate and that's the last thing she wants to happen.
She didn't have much more time to think when she sensed a powerful aura she knew all to well.
'Well' she sighed contently 'maybe I'm wrong like I was with Kouga'

"Hello Lord Sesshomaru" she greeted him politely with a bow.
"Miko" he said in his usual tone "are ready to depart"
"I am" she said before taking his offered hand.
He formed his energy ball and the two took off towards the sky.
'Wow' she thought amazed 'I never knew how gorgeous his lands were' she thought looking down from the skies.
His chest swelled in pride sensing her approval of the view of his lands.
He decided to take it up a notch and give her a breath taking view of what his lands were really like.
She was not a fan of heights, so when she noticed him going higher, she clung to his side like a life line but she just couldn't look away.
They were now above the clouds making his lands look like a forbidden city hidden in the clouds.
"Your lands are amazing Sesshomaru"
"Hn your opinion is much appreciated Kagome"
She shivered in pleasure at how he pronounced her name. . . . so much intimacy and the way his warm breath brushed across her neck, she never knew such a gesture could feel so sinful.
After what seemed like forever but in reality only 3 hours, they landed in front of a pair of large silver gates with his family's' crescent moon symbol engraved in the middle.
"MY LORD AND LADY MIKO HAS RETURNED" a guard announced "GREETINGS MY LORD AND MY LADY MIKO"
It's been a while since Kagomes' been back at the castle and even then she didn't stay longer than a few hours.
Rin was sick and Sesshomaru brought her to the castle.
"Hn" was all he said before leading her into his home.
"IZUMI" he ordered.
In less than a minute, a white female fox demon appeared in front of them.
She looked about the same age as Kagome. She had flawless creamy snow white skin and beautiful silky silver hair that stopped below her waist. She had a tail as well, but unlike Shippos' tail, hers wasn't bushy but long and tamed.
"For the remainder of her stay, you will be Lady Kagomes personal servent. Take her to the royal wing and get her settled in the room across from my chambers than bring her to my private garden" he instructed in his normal tone before leaving.
"I see Lord Sesshonaru finally made his move" Izumi smirked.
Since her last visit to the palace, she and Kagome became real close and would joke around with each other and gossip.
"W-what do you mean" she blushed deeply.
She had no idea how the female demon even knew the two were courting. She hasn't said anything and knowing Sesshomaru, she damned sure didn't get it from him.
Izumi just giggled at the girls face.
She never understood how one so powerful could be so modest.
"The room he gave you" she answered the un asked question.
Kagome just gave her a questioning eyebrow.
"The room he gave you is the room a blood member of his clan would give to their intended when courting"
In less than hour, Kagome was ready and was now walking the halls going to meet up with Sesshomaru.
"My Lord" Izumi announced "My Lady Kagome is ready" she presented moving to the side letting Kagome reveal herself.
His breath was taken away seeing the rare beauty before him.
He knew he made the right decision when he decided to personally restock her closet with kimonos.
She looked beautiful.
Her kimono matched her hair.
It was a simple tradional silk red evening kimono with black designs outlining the cuffs. The sleeves were a sheer design and completely see through.
Her hair was pulled up into a tight bun with red beads inbedded into it. She wore little to no make up.
'Natural Beauty'
It was simple yet tasteful.
"It is acceptable Izumi" he said in his natural tone "that will be all"
"Yes My Lord" she bowed before disappearing.
Sensing they were completely alone, he let his guard down and gazed down softly at the princess before him.
"You look divine Koi" he said softly as he affectionately nuzzling her neck.
"Thank you" she blushed.
She hated knowing that he could easily bring her to her knees with such a simple show of affection.
He knew all to well of the affect he had on her.
He pulled back slightly looking down at her before softly claiming her lips with his own.
He held her close around the waist and shivered in pleasure feeling her little hands slowly slide their way up his chest and lazily wrapped themselves around his neck.
Moments later the two pulled away for much needed air as he rested his forehead against hers.
"You know" she said softly looking up at him "I don't recall Rins' garden having so many exotic flowers"
Said girl was so happy when Kagome cured her that she took her on a mini tour of the castle then played in her garden.
"Hn" he said before pulling away.
He gently took her hand and led her to a Sakura Tree. He crossed his legs crossed and ushered her to sit on his lap.
He smirked at the heated blush and took her hand and pulled her down onto him.
He held her close with his face buried in the side of her neck.
"That is because this Garden belongs to this Sesshomarus' mother and sire"
He couldn't begin to even describe the hold this little onna had on him.
NEVER had he been so calm and relaxed.
With her, it was like he could be himself without being judged as weak.
She even had him to the point where he could show her his affection, in privacy that is.
He will never give the enemy a chance to see him like this and put her as a target to get to him.
"Its beautiful" she said softly looking around.
There were apple blossoms, forget-me-nots, and lilacs.
Being the daughter of a well known florists, Kagome knew the meaning of each of the flowers.
'Promise, remember me forever, and first love... How romantic' she thought when something caught her eye.
'Ivy' she thought a little confused. She looked around and noticed there were quite a few of them planted among the rest.
As if reading her mind, Sesshomaru finally spoke.
"Fidelity" he growled lowly.
She jumped at the aound of his voice.
"I'm sorry, what"
"My mother planted those ivys in rememberance of my fathers betrayal"
