Summary: Sesshoumaru reflects on his feelings about
fatherhood.
When he entered the bedroom and saw them, the maelstrom that his emotions had become shook him to the core again, and he wondered if he would ever get used to this almost physical reaction to the sight.
Kagome was sitting in her rocking chair, their infant son cradled in her arms, humming a lullaby.
She looked up and smiled serenely, drawing him with a magnetism he was only beginning to understand. His need to protect them was primal, but beneath that very male urge dwelt helplessness and fear. He didn't know such a thing as this, his new love for his wife and child, could be so powerful and make him feel so weak.
He knelt down and kissed Kagome's cheek, then smoothed wild white hair and traced the faint blue crescent that was beginning to appear, marking his birthright as a Taiyoukai. The baby yawned and opened his eyes, amber vivid against his pale, clear skin.
"Sometimes I wonder if there's anything of me in him," Kagome said. "He looks so much like you."
"He has his mother's ability to make me realize what's truly important."
Together, they lost track of time just watching him, their third half.
