Sesshomaru's POV
I sat on one side of the room on a large white cushion facing the door Kagome and the Fates would enter through. This morning will mark history in ways no one could ever know. The first-ever once mortal demon will be placed and begin her training. I wondered again at what type she would be and what she could do with all that power simmering just under her skin.
I sat up straight as I felt our bond vibrating, she was coming closer. A timid knock at the door told me exactly when they arrived. "Enter."
Akasuki entered with Kagome right behind her. I didn't realize Jakken had already sent someone to assist Kagome. I studied the girls closely, Akasuki had grown up here almost alongside me and had been faithful throughout the years. I glance between them and nodded, Kagome will need a female demon to confide in while she is here.
I watched them as they walked over to me and as Akasuki curtsied low. "My Lord." I nodded at her and she backed away leaving Kagome in front of me in a beautiful yet simple white kimono that reached down to her ankles, she was beautiful. She smiled at me nervously.
I looked at the cushion I had lain out for her. "Sit, they will be here shortly."
She nodded and gracefully sat down beside me. Out of the corner of my eye I watched as Akasuki leaned closer to Kagome. "how well do you know Lord Sesshomaru?" I smirked and tuned into their conversation.
Kagome shook her head. "Hmmm, good question." She paused for a minute. "I suppose it's been a few years now." She paused again and looked over at Akasuki. "Why do you ask?"
The demoness smiled and shook her head casting a glance my way. "No one is allowed to sit that close to him."
Kagome was quiet for a moment. "What do yo-"
She was cut off by a sharp knock. "My Lord?" Jakken appeared in the doorway. "They are here."
I nodded and he stepped aside, allowing three demons to walk past him. One a female crow demon, Ayako with black eyes and hair, she wore a dark kimono and red feathers in her hair. The other two were male demons, one a tortoise demon, Daichi with light blonde hair and green eyes. He wore a green kimono with darker green waves on the bottom. The last was Eichi an owl demon with deep-set golden eyes and dark grey hair kept short he wore a blue kimono with clouds on the sleeves.
"Lord Sesshomaru, darling!" Ayako stepped forward and curtsied before standing upright and meeting my eyes. "I knew it was only a matter of time!" She turned and pointed to Daichi and Eichi. "These two were certain you would never grace this land with a pup."
Daichi scowled at her before bowing to me. "Not never my Lord." She scoffed and glared at him.
"Don't change your story now darling."
Eichi stepped forward and bowed. "Apologies my Lord."
Ayako shook her head and stepped forward. "No more time for chat." She looked up at me eagerly. "Where is the little darling?"
I sighed and pinched the bridge of my nose. "There is no pup."
She gasped and backed away with her hand on her chest. "What?" She squawked. "I was wrong?"
Daichi smirked at her. "I told you."
She glared at him but before they could start arguing Eichi stepped between them. "Then my lord." He glanced next to me his gaze landing on Kagome. "Why have you summoned us?" The other two froze and looked up at me.
I stood and stared down at them before turning to Kagome. "Something new."
Daichi grumbled. "New?"
I bent and held out my hand for Kagome to take so I could help her stand. I turned to the Fates with her standing beside me. "I summoned you here for her."
Ayako looked at Kagome suspiciously. "Is she with your child?"
I felt Kagome stiffen beside me and sighed. "No."
She threw up her hands and huffed. "Why is there never any-"
"Ayako!" She froze and looked at Eichi. His eyes had never left Kagome's face. "I believe we are here for a much greater purpose than a simple child blessing."
She froze and finally glanced up at Kagome.
He stepped closer his eyes still glued to Kagome. "I believe your story will change our whole world."
