"Sweet Mother of Mine" Ch.3
It had been about five weeks since Sesshomaru was born and he had grown a lot since then. He had grown whiter hair, had pointier ears and was getting bigger in size.
Crynda and Inutaisho were in the dining room having some tea and chatting about past events.
"So my dear, how was your meeting with the Lord of the Eastern Lands earlier?" asked Crynda.
"My, that imbecile gets crankier every day. If I must endure his behavior one more time, I'm going to give him what he deserves."
With Crynda's sharp hearing, she heard the sound of crying from upstairs.
"Linaya", called Crynda.
An elderly fox demon entered the room.
"Yes, milady?"
"Would you bring me my son?"
"Certainly", and with that, she headed upstairs. In a short while, she returned with a crying Sesshomaru in her arms.
Crynda took Sesshomaru and gently started rocking him back and forth to try and calm him down, but to no avail.
"Oh, you must be hungry, my child. Come, let's go and feed you", said Crynda getting up from her chair and leaving.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Crynda was in her room feeding Sesshomaru. After burping him, she began to sing a soft lullaby to him. "Hmmm, hmmm. Oh, my precious son, how I love you....." The lovely singing voice of his mother put Sesshomaru to sleep after a few minutes. She then took him to his bedroom and laid him down in his large crib.
Afterward, she went back downstairs to where she had left her mate, but was surprised to find that he wasn't there. "Linaya, where is Inutaisho?"
"He was called out to an emergency meeting with one of the Lords. He wished for me to tell you that he was sorry to leave on such short notice."
"I see", replied Crynda with some sadness in her voice. With nothing else to do, she walked over to the library of her castle and read for a while. When she became bored, she decided to walk back upstairs and check on Sesshomaru. As she entered his room, she heard some baby giggles.
"Ah, Sesshomaru. You're awake", she said looking over him from his crib. She began playing with his soft baby hair while he shook his wooden rattle around. Still giggling, he crushed the rattle with his hand.
"My, my. You're getting strong like your father", she said picking up the remains of the crushed toy. "I must make a new one for you, but with a stronger type of wood." She caressed his face and was just about to leave his room.
Not wanting his mother to leave him, Sesshomaru began whining a little. "M-m-mama."
Crynda dropped the pieces of the rattle and ran over to his crib. "Oh, my darling! You said your first word! My little boy said his first word!" She picked him up and started giving him lots of hugs and kisses. She spun him around gently. They both started laughing and were happy that they had the other in their life.

At nightfall, Inutaisho returned back to his castle.
One of the servants greeted him. "My lord. Welcome back", he said bowing to him.
"Thank you. Do you know where my mate and son are?"
"I believe they are in the castle somewhere."
Inutaisho went upstairs picking up their scent and followed it to his and Crynda's bedroom, where the two were sound asleep on the bed. He walked over and sat beside her. He lowered his head and kissed her softly on the lips. She slowly opened her eyes and gazed up at his smiling face.
"Hello, my dear", he whispered not wanting to wake up his son.
"Hello." She set Sesshomaru beside her and gave Inutaisho a kiss. "I'd better put him to bed." She picked up her pup and walked him over to his room. She laid him down and covered him with a soft blanket. She caressed his tiny face and returned to her room where Inutaisho was already in bed. She got in bed with him and lay down on his chest. He lifted up her chin so her eyes met his.
"You are so beautiful, my love."
Crynda smiled up at him. "I love you."
"I love you even more."
She let out a quiet giggle and replied "I'm sorry, but that's not possible."
She captured his lips in a romantic kiss and then proceeded on sliding on top of him. He returned the kiss and put his arms around her. They stayed like this for the rest of the night.
