Mate

"My mate wonders about the pups mother," Kotone said idly, gracefully guiding Kagome through the halls of the palace. The miko herself nearly missed the statement for she was concentrating on not tripping and making a fool of herself.

"Um… more like he doesn't think it possible for a female to want to ah… mate with him."

Kotone shot her a sharp look. "Nonsense, my son is the most sought after male in the realm."

"Of course, Kotone-sama," assured Kagome immediately.

"I don't know what Saitou thinks, however his son has changed since his death," She fell silent for a moment, "Perhaps not very much," she conceded, "but enough."

"And he found a female to live happily ever after with?" Asked Kagome, looking up at the Western Mother.

"He did."

Kagome smiled almost triumphantly. That meant Saitou could leave her right?

"But she died."

I do not own Inu-Yasha and Co. Nor do I profit from writing this drabble story, it's purely for enjoyment. This is meant to be a set of interconnected 'oneshots' or 'drabbles.' The installments are going to be short.

Please Regard Me Kindly,
