A/N: So, another lemon in this chapter and mentions of sexual activity because they're just getting it on at this point in the story. Enjoy!
Laying on her futon with Sesshomaru behind her she felt her eyes grow heavy. She had lost count as to how many times they actually had had sex. He had not been joking when he said it would be arduous and uncomfortable.
Now as he continued to pump into her before releasing within her Kagome placed a hand to her stomach. It had been four days and there was no possible way she wasn't pregnant or at least in the act of actively conceiving.
"I need to wash up again." Mumbling sleepily glancing at her husband.
"I will try to expedite our un-joining."
"Thank you." Closing her eyelid she felt herself drift away to sleep. It was nice to have some respite from the near constant rutting.
"Kagome." Sesshomaru sounded distant, far from her. Jolting back into reality she reopened her eye.
"Mhmm."
"Come mate." Grasping at his hands she allowed him to pull her up to stand. Walking slowly into her wash room he had already prepared a bath making sure the water was warmed.
"You are too good to me." She said smiling.
"It's the least I can do." Assisting her down onto the wooden step to sit. Climbing in before her she grasped his shoulders as he gripped her waist to settle her down.
"So nice." Leaning her head back she sighed. "What a relief." Lavender filled her senses as the scented oil soothed her. "Thank you husband."
Placing a hot cloth to her forehead he sat beside her stretching himself out as well. "Afterwards I will hunt. Your resources are starting to diminish."
"I have been so hungry, all of our mating has left me famished."
"I warned you…"
"I'm not complaining." Kagome said resting her head against his shoulder. "I love you my handsome mate."
"And I love you my beautiful wife." Wrapping his arm around her he put his face into her hair feeing the dampness of the steam take hold of her tangled locks.
The day was unusually mild for how late in the season it was and Kagome decided to make the most of it. With Sesshomaru out walking their perimeter she knew when he came back home he would want her back in her room.
Leaning on her cane she walked into her study and grabbed the sleek bow from the wall where it hung.
It had been a gift from Sesshomaru, from what he had told her, and she had ran her hands over it a few times but had yet to take it down.
The craftsmanship of it was remarkable but she didn't doubt he must have commissioned it from a highly skilled weapons master.
Taking her quiver that had been sitting for months she took a breath slinging it across her body. Limping out of the house she walked to the stable where An-Un slept on top of the stable, not under for some odd reason.
She had noticed before the hand drawn target on the side with the arrow marks denting the side of the stable, looking at it she took a stance and dropped her cane down to the ground.
Waiting momentarily to make certain she had her balance Kagome drew out an arrow. Raising her bow she notched it and adjusted her sight to her right.
Letting it go she watched as it skimmed the side of the stable flying into the ground some feet away. "Okay." Grabbing another arrow she steadied herself again adjusting her sights. "Hit the mark."
Releasing the arrow she saw it hit the outer ridge of the target. "Alright! I hit it!" Happy with herself she continued to practice not letting her misses distract her.
Placing the bow down to her side she saw as the dragons raised their gaze towards the clearing. Slowly moving around Kagome saw her husband approaching.
"Hello mate." She greeted. "I trust all is well."
"Yes." Giving a nod he took in her recent activities. "Going well?"
"Yes." She replied cheerfully. "I just need practice."
Wrapping an arm around her he rested his hand against her stomach breathing in her scent. Stopping he moved around the front of her and dropped to his knees.
Opening her kimono slightly just to expose her stomach he placed his nose to flesh and took a deep breath. With a sigh he kissed at her.
"Am I?" Feeling her voice suddenly stuck in her throat. Bringing his gaze to hers he smiled at her softly.
"Yes mate." Standing her took her into his arms. "You are pregnant."
Sitting on the wooden porch Kagome sipped at her rice milk porridge that Rin had shown her how to make. As soon as the dragons scented it they stood almost expectantly watching her as if waiting for something.
"Okay, what's going on with them." She asked finally. Glancing at Sesshomaru who sat beside her with his eyes shut.
"On occasion you made that for them." He replied with a smirk. "They believe it is for them I suppose."
"Oh, sorry you two but I need this now. I promise next time I'll make enough for all three of us." She said receiving bewildered stares as if they didn't understand why she wasn't sharing it with them. "Don't look at me like that."
"An-Un, go lie down." Sesshomaru commanded opening his eyes and motioned towards the stable. With audible groans and a snort they complied. "It is your fault they are like that."
"Me? How is it my fault?"
"In the past you spoiled them."
"Okay well, I am not at fault because I don't remember. So there."
"If I am not mistaken you have continued to spoil them; sharing your food with them, bringing them treats when they should be hunting."
"I will not confirm nor deny that…"
"I have seen you do it. You have successfully domesticated them, whether that was your intention or not."
"Hm, well…apparently they aren't the only ones I have domesticated." She stated wryly with a smirk playing across her lips.
"Oh?" Sesshomaru moved quickly pinning her gently down onto the ground.
"Hey! My food!" She protested not knowing where her bowl had flown off too. Her wrists lay at the sides of her head as he held them down loosely but effectively.
"You believe that you have tamed this Sesshomaru?" Drawing out the words into her ear Kagome swallowed hard as the warm breath that graced it.
"You're here aren't you?" She replied. "If you had just wanted to have a good fuck and knock me up, you would have been long gone. Do you deny it?"
"This one does not confirm nor deny that." She pursed her lips at the way he said it, he loved to use her own terms to his advantage.
"Speaking of…" Kagome turned her head to nuzzle against him getting lost in his locks of hair that hung down in a cascade of tresses.
"Hm." Meeting her lips with his he ran his hands down her arms before wrapping them around her. "Then let us go inside."
"Out here. Right here."
"It is not too cold for you?"
"You'll keep me warm." She replied. "Besides we don't have to take off all of our clothes." Reaching down she pulled up her kimono to mid thigh partially exposing her sex.
"This pup is making you salacious mate."
"Are you complaining?"
"No." He rumbled out assisting her with one hand to pull up her garment.
"Alright then." Receiving a chuckle from him she wiggled out from underneath him. Sitting up and grasping the wooden railing she stood. "Help me sit up here."
Doing so she quickly untied his sash lowering his hakamas and reached under his fundoshi. With a sigh as she gripped him he moved his hips with her strokes.
"Yes mate." Wrapping an arm around her waist to steady her balance she readjusted herself to spread her legs to rub the tip of his sex against hers. Breathing heavily he allowed her to pleasure them both with his body.
"Sesshomaru, my husband, you feel so good." She moaned out arching her back against his arm. Taking advantage of her position Sesshomaru kissed at her exposed throat dragging his fangs across the sensitive flesh. "Yes!"
Rubbing him harder against herself with more urgency he felt her juices against him as her scent of near orgasm assaulted his senses as if teasing him.
Taking her hand to still she let out a frustrated 'hmph'.
"Patience my dearest." Catching her lips with his and running his tongue against them he placed her hands on the railing as he lowered himself to kneel.
She gasped out as he devoured her womanhood in a frenzied hunger. "Your taste is so different, so very tantalizing now that you carry my pup."
"Oh?" She managed out gripping his shoulders and leaning forward slightly she came undone against the flurry of his tongue against her.
Licking at her entrance and entering her with the appendage Kagome screamed out as he indulged himself of her climax greedily.
Once he stood Kagome wiped his face off smiling contently. Gripping her by the waist he carefully lowered her back down and turned her around.
Placing her hands back to the railing she bent down slightly to give him access to her knowing what he wanted. Pushing her kimono up roughly over her backside she felt his hands knead and grasp the muscles of her rear and thighs before a claw skirted gently against her entrance.
"Stop teasing me." She whined moving her hips enticingly. With a deep growl he grasped those hips with his hands and found her entrance with his weeping length.
Pushing into her she offered resistance by moving against him as he met her hips. "Ah, yes wife." He declared through gritted teeth reveling in the feel of his flesh hitting hers and the sound it made.
Reaching far into her he felt the firmness of her cervix as it had closed off to protect their child. Growling he moved a hand to her stomach feeling the small hard bump that had formed. "Mine."
"Yes, yes." Kagome gripped the wood tighter feeling the pressure pool in her groin again. The cool air a stark contrast to her own heat nearly masterbating her with its caress. "Keep going, more Sesshomaru!"
Placing his hand back on her hip he gripped more tightly slamming her into him watching himself disappear into her body only to re-emerge. "You're perfect for me, just perfect." He ground out.
Kagome nearly smashed her head on the wood as she came hard. Screaming out his name until her throat felt raw from the sheer force and volume she had used.
With his own yell Sesshomaru stilled her hips filling her until it dripped from her body around him, both of their juices puddling into the wood at their feet.
A few more sloppy thrusts to fully empty his erection and he pulled out of her gathering her to him and nearly falling onto his back. Giggling Kagome fell with him to lay against his chest.
"That's the best sex we've ever had." Kagome said breathlessly kissing at his throat.
"I have to agree." He panted out brushing her hair away from her face. "You are amazing mate."
Placing her hand against his cheek she smiled. "I am so happy that I remembered how much I love you."
Kissing at her fingers he tightened his embrace and hummed in agreement.
