Chapter Fourteen
The Hotel was in a frenzy finishing the last of the details for the Ball that night. Every hour or so since dawn Sesshomaru and Kagome would check on things and see if things were moving smoothly. Most of the people from the café were working catering at the Ball. Everything so far was going as planned for the party.
Many of the guests that were attending had arrived early the day before, because they either wanted to see the sights of Tokyo. Many of them were Lords and Ladies of other lands, or high-ranking clans' member. They were also there to make business deals, see how the lords and ladies were doing, and to see how their rivals were faring. Even those who weren't staying there were doing much of the same. There was only a select few that truly knew what the Ball was about. However, much of it was to tell the world of their secret, which only their closest family and friends knew.
They both were well prepared for what would play out that night. They knew many people would be jealous of hearing their news. Every time there were gatherings or Balls they each would have to deal with single slutty, gold digging bitches or single assholes men, who think they could get any women, of their choosing. Even though they know that would must likely to happen they still made sure everything would be okay.
Every hour they checked on the Ballroom, everything was looking better and ready to go for the night. The coloring, the theme, and everything else were perfectly upset. The tables were exactly where they had to be along with the plates, wine glass, and silverware neatly on top. Nothing so far looked out of place.
When Sesshomaru and Kagome where not checking how things were going they took the time to relax in their penthouse and maybe even do something a little more than that. It was still early to get dressed up for the nights event.
"When do I get to see what I'm wearing tonight?" asked Kagome from on top of her mate. Suddenly she moaned as she felt him drive into her with his member. Then he began to start a pattern, moving in and out of her. She lean down and kissed his neck as she rode his huge member.
He then whispered into her ear, "Later mate." Then he brought his hands to grasp her be hind and flip them both, so that he was now on top. He knew he was almost at his peak and he wanted her to come before him.
"But I want…Oh god, harder," she said when he thrust into her again. "I'm going to come," she said wrapping her legs around him in trying to hold on.
Sesshomaru could feel her beginning to tighten around his member. He just loved it every time he made love with his mate. He continued to keep his pace and thrust into her. To give more effect he took one of her breast into his mouth. He would suck and nibble before he gave the same treatment to the other one, while he still drove into her.
Then finally, he got what he wanted. She came to her peak and release all over his member as he still drove into getting ready for his release. When he heard and felt her release, he kissed his way to her lips. Once he came to her lips, he thrust one more time as he took her lips at his release.
After they both had recovered, Kagome still laid under her mate with him still inside of her. She looked over him. She could feel his breathing on her skin. She then started to rub his back as he began to kiss the mating mark.
"Well then when will I get to have the dress then," she asked.
He then rose a little so he could look at her in the face. "I thought I told you later mate." Kagome was going to protest, but she moaned when she felt him starting right back up again. "Now I suggest we continue our activities," he said grinning. Kagome's eyes widen. 'You animal,' she thought. "You have no idea mate."
"Thank you Souta for taking care of Kohaku for me," said Sango.
"No problem. I could have gone, but I decided not to because there wasn't going to be anyone my age there. Besides this way I get paid to baby sit three other kids," said Souta. "In addition to not getting bored out of my mind. To me the only good thing of going would be see every ones reaction to their news, which I can always find out from mom, sis, grandfather, you or from the newspaper."
"So who else are you watching?" asked Sango following him to the kitchen where Kay was at.
"He'll be taking care of Rin, Shippo and Kye. Hello Sango," said Kay. Then she turns to Souta. "Why don't you and Kohaku go to you room and hook up your PS2 to the living room TV? That way you don't have to do it later on when the other children come. Oh that reminds me I bought some poppers, sprinklers and some fountains for later if you want to give the little ones a show later."
"Okay mom and I'm sure they will come in handy later," said Souta. Then he took a very happy Kohaku with him.
"So how have you been?" she asked Sango when the boys were gone.
"Good, but some of the smell have been getting to me and the morning sickens is a dread." said Sango taking a cookie from a plate full of cookies on the table.
"That's expected dear," said Kay sitting down at the table across from her. "Do you want me to make you anything?" Sango nodded no. "So have you decided if you will trust Miroku again?"
"I don't know. I've given him so many chances to be trusted. Each way he took them and shattered that trust. In some way I think this time it feels different and he actually wants to keep it this time, but I'm afraid it might shatter like all the other times."
"Of course you would feel afraid. What he did was unforgivable from what Kagome said to me. However, if he is going to give up everything; his family to fix his mistakes, for you and your unborn child, I think it's a start into the right direction for him and you. You also have to contribute to making sure things work this time."
"How?"
"Well have you told him how you feel? It could help into trusting him fully so he can understand more of how all this is making you feel."
"Should I?"
"It would help in the right direction for the both of you. In addition, from what Kagome says, he willing to do so much to get you back and to stay by your side. Both me and my daughter know it's your decision on that and what happens is between you and Miroku," said Kay. "So I hope this little advice helps in some way, because I don't like seeing you and Kohaku upset. I see both of you as my second set of kids."
Sango smiled at hearing that. "I see you too as my second mom, since you've been there for us. The advice did help in a grate deal." said Sango reaching for another cookie. Kay smiled.
"Your welcome dear. Before you go I'll get you a full bag of cookies." Sango cheeks redden in embarrassment. "So what will you be wearing tonight?" asked Kay changing the subject to a happier conversation.
"Ayame, thanks again for letting me stay here for two days or until my apartment is tic free thanks to my neighbor flea bag animal," said Inuyasha. "Don't get me wrong or anything I like dogs and cats. Its just the woman doesn't even know how to take care of them.
"One time I remembered her leaving for the weekend not even taking her pets with her or having some one feed them and take them on walks. I thank she crossed the line this time because the owner of the building called animal control and then gave her a thirty day notice."
"In some way I feel somewhat bad that she got kicked out, but she didn't need to let things get out of control. At lease, nothing was destroyed. So what do you want to do until we need to get ready for tonight?"
"We could go see a movie or stay and watch a move here." he said.
"Okay let's stay here. You can pick the movie and I'll get the snacks," she said heading to the kitchen. "What kind of drink would you like? I have Coke, seven up, Root Beer, Strawberry Lemonade, milk and water."
"I'll have a coke. Do you mind if we watch 2 Fast 2 Furious. With my schedule I haven't had the chance to see it."
"Wow I though a guy like you has seen it by now," she said. "Yeah we can watch it. I thought it was some what better than the first one." Then she walked back into the room with the drinks and the snacks.
"Honey are you ready, yet? We need to be going now. We have to be there early just in case and in addition we need to drop Shippo and Rin off at Kay's home. Souta said he would watch them tonight," said Kai from the stairway.
"I just need to finish putting on my makeup," said Kara from their room. "Are the kids ready to go?"
"Yes dear," said Kai heading down stairs into the living room, where his two youngest children were watching TV. "Are you two ready to go? Your mother is just finishing putting on her face."
"Daddy you're so funny, isn't he mommy?" said Rin. Kai just paled knowing he was in trouble now.
"Yes your daddy is so funny," said Kara narrowing her eyes at their father. "Now let's go and don't think you off the hook honey."
"Yes dear," said Kai knowing he might be sleeping on the couch tonight if he didn't fix things with her. 'If they I don't maybe I can ask my son for a spare room at his hotel.'
"Papa's in trouble," said Shippo following his mother and sister out the door.
"Yes I am," said Kai locking up behind him.
"Sesshomaru, I'm going to need my dress now, unless you want me going down there nude," said Kagome watching her mate's expression, but he seemed to have better control of his emotion.
"No one see what's mine," he said. He turn and headed to his closet and retrieved a box. Then he headed back to the bed and set the box on the bed. She watched as he then laid the lead off the box to the side. He then swiftly moved to her side and pulled her out of bed. Then he said to her as an order, "Now get dressed." Then he left the room to give his mate time to dress and for himself to get cleaned up.
Once she was finished dressing, Kagome stood in a silverfish-blue dress. The top part held on around her neck and then flowed down to her feet. There were no sleeves. Her back was pretty much bare to the world except for two straps; one just below her shoulder blades and the other around the middle of her back. On her feet, she wore silver strapped up high heels. Then her hair was up in a bun with two strains down the side of her face. She wore very little makeup and on each of her wrist were silver bracelets.
She then looked over to her mate, who stood waiting for her. Sesshomaru wore a black tuxedo that fit him perfectly. To complete his outfit he wore black shoes. His hair was held in a low ponytail. All together, it was enough to make her loose her breath. He simply was stunning.
They both had taken that time to notice each other's appearances, which soon caused them both to become hungry for each other again. If they did take care of their now developing need then they wouldn't be on time for the ball. Somehow, Sesshomaru broke out of his daze and said, "Beautiful."
That seemed to break her out of her own daze and say, "Thank you."
Sesshomaru then held his arm out for her, which she took. "She'll we?" She nodded and moved with him out the door and into the elevator. Then down to the ball on the bottom floor.
"Let me in this instance," said a woman. "Do you know who I am?"
"Yes we know who you are Miss Canfield and you know your not aloud on the Taisho Hotel/Casino's property. So Miss if you don't leave this instance we will call the police to take you from the premise to down town," said one of the security checking the guest in.
"Some idiot told you a lie and if you don't let me in this instance…."
"Madam I've been…."
"Fine I'll leave, but you'll regret it later," said Kagura storming off.
As they walked into the ballroom, most of the guest were there. Some that they walked by looked in awe or envy. They both first greeted all their friends and family. They even notice some of the rivals and enemies. Kagome even saw her cousin, who didn't look to happy to be here. Then she saw her cousin's fiancé, who gave her the creeps.
After a few more minutes of looking around, she realized she was now being pulled through the crowded groups of people and Youkia. Her mate was leading her straight to the stage area. On their way there, they bumped into Kouga.
"Kagome, you look lovely this evening. Would…," he had said before he was cut off.
"Kouga get back to work. I don't pay you to do nothing," said Sesshomaru. He wasn't happy that Kouga was going to ask her to dance with him. However, once Kouga left, he continued on to the stage with his mate.
Once at the stage many of the guests began to quiet down. Some headed back to their tables. The music in the room soon was off. Then finally, the room was silent. No one spoke as they waited for their host of the ball to speak.
"I welcome everyone to the Taisho Hotel/Casino's Yearly Ball. I've gathered everyone here for several important news. The first of both news is for a while I have come to a decision. From the success of this hotel, I have decided to create another hotel. Not just any hotel, it will be more of a resort than a hotel. It may have many things that are the same as this hotel, but will be different in the ways of relaxation for the guess staying there. I've also decided it will be built in Kyoto."
Then he stop to allow everyone to clap to congratulate him on his success and his decision to build a Resort. Some chatted with others about it. Some weren't happy about the news because he was doing so well in the business than them. Again, he waited for everyone to quiet down, which soon happened.
"Now on to other news. I have also gather everyone here to in form everyone now to celebrate my marriage to Kagome Higurashi for almost a half a year now……
