Summary: Inuyasha offers comfort.

Inuyasha held Kagome tenderly as she sobbed into his shoulder. "Well, I'm not sticking up for him or anything, but most Youkai females would kill to be a Taiyoukai's concubine."

Kagome lifted her head, eyes murderous. "I'm not a Youkai female, am I? That's been made abundantly clear." The tears came back immediately.

Inuyasha sighed as his cell vibrated—a text from Sesshoumaru. Need to talk to you. Call me ASAP.

That morning he had seen his brother, also plainly miserable; the matchmaker and his mother were coming that afternoon.

"You two are going to make me a basket case."
