~* Chapter 3: The Family Begins *~

"Come here Rin. You can come and take a bath with us." Kakane's voice was full of happiness as she looked at her surrogate daughter. "Later we will go to the market and buy you a new kimono. Would you like that?"

"Yes, Rin would like that very much." The little girl was now splashing in the water with them.

After awhile, Sesshoumaru got out and so did Kakane. They each wrapped themselves in one of the robes on the hooks. They left Rin to play in the water for awhile. Once in the room again, Sesshoumaru sat down in one of the plush chairs and Kakane sat on his lap.

"There is something that is bothering me right now."

"Really? Well, what is it darling?"

"Well, one your eyes have turned red. And second, I do not smell the presence of a child in you. You should have conceived by now. Could there be something wrong?"

"Actually, no there is nothing wrong. My eyes turned red because of a dramatic change in my body or life. That change was mating with you. It will go away by tonight. Also since my mother was a powerful miko, I have the power to not become pregnant unless I'm not at the peak of fertility or if I strongly will myself not to."

"But why would you not want to become pregnant with our child? Isn't that what you want? And why do you have that power?" Sesshoumaru was brimming with questions he wanted answers to.

"My mother had this power because she was an extremely powerful miko. Many youkai knew this and tried to rape her so she would produce them an heir. The Heir could possibly be more powerful than she was. It was a way to prevent a youkai from corrupting a powerful child's mind. Next yes, that is what I want but not too soon. I was not in heat and I might not have conceived. I didn't want to risk that."

"Oh I see now. Well when you are in heat I'll have something to look forward to." He smiled and kissed her. Right in the middle of their kiss, Rin came running into the room. She had a robe on and jumped up into Kakane's lap who was on Sesshoumaru's lap still.

"Hello Rin, lets go get dressed and then we'll leave, ok?"

"Yeah, I want o show you my room!" Rin was so excited. She took a hold of Kakane's hand and dragged her toward they door. Kakane got up and picked Rin up and put her on her right hip. "Darling, where can I find clothes to wear? My kimono has a rip in it. I will have to sew it up."

"In the room across from Rin's there is a closet with kimonos in it. And don't worry I'll have the tailor sew yours up."

"All right I'll see you later darling." Kakane smiled and left the room holding Rin.

"So Rin where is your room? Will you show me?"

"Yes it is this way!" The very excited girl jumped down off Kakane and ran in the direction of her room. When she got there she went to her closet and chose a beautiful pink kimono with red blossoms all over it. Kakane helped her up it on. She looked beautiful in it. Then Kakane helped Rin put her hair up with a bone comb.

Kakane then took Rin into the room across from hers. She walked into the closet and found a very ornate blue kimono with purple clouds and a castle on it. Kakane then put her log hair in a braid.

They left the house and made their way to the market. As they walked into the town, some people came up to Kakane and greeted her. Rin asked, "Do you know all these people?"

"Yes Rin, I used to protect their town from evil youkai."

They walked to a shop and purchased a beautiful kimono that was for Rin. They bought a wall-scroll for Rin's room. It had a beautiful young maiden on it and she was riding a horse youkai. When they finally headed home, Rin was almost asleep. Kakane put the scroll in a leather sack along with the kimono. She put the sack on her back and picked Rin up in her arms.

"Thank You mommy." Was all Rin said before drifting off to sleep. Kakane's silver hair had a lavender tint to it as she walked in the moonlight back to the castle. When they got there, Kakane put Rin in her bed and went into the kitchen where she saw Sesshoumaru sitting, drinking his tea. "Hello, my angel. How was your day with Rin."

"It was great. We bought a kimono and a wall scroll for her." She walked over and sat next to him. He looked up and smiled at his mate. "Shall we retire for the night, my angel?" He stood and smiled slyly at him.

When they got to their room, Kakane pulled Sesshoumaru in for a deep kiss. He wrapped his arms around her waist. She slowly began to untie his top. His clothes fell to the floor as he began to untie her obi. Once it came undone, the rest of the kimono followed.

They laid down on the bed and did a replay of the night before just without the biting. The next morning, Kakane woke before Sesshoumaru. She slipped out of bed and into the hot spring room. She enjoyed a bath alone today. She found a mirror and looked into it. Her wet hair was in her eyes. When she brushed it away, she saw a pair of sky blue eyes staring back at her. She quickly got out and ran into the room where her mate lay sleeping.

Since she was in such a hurry, she did not tie her robe. She shook Sesshoumaru lightly. He popped up and looked around frantically. "What's wrong?!"

"Darling, everything's all right. Now look at me, what do you see?"

He looked and was greeted by Kakane's large breasts. He decided to not get himself in trouble and continued to look up towards her face. She saw his wandering eyes and closed her robe. He stood up and dressed quickly. While he dressed, she did too. Today she wore a beautiful baby blue kimono that had baby pink trim and a baby pink obi. She ran back to her bedroom and saw Sesshoumaru sitting in one of the plush chairs. She walked over to him and took his hands. She pulled him out of his chair and looked into his eyes. "What do you see?"

"I see beautiful...Sky blue eyes looking at me. Why are they blue today?" He was puzzled now. He missed her deep green eyes that loved him so much. He noticed a huge smile spread across her face. He looked at her kimono and noticed the combination of baby blue and baby pink. His eyes widened as he realized what this could mean. He sniffed at the air for a moment and realized what he smelling.

"A...a...are y...you pregnant?" He managed to stutter out.

"YES!," squealed a very excited young hanyou. "I don't know if it's a boy or a girl yet but I thought you might know. I also don't know how many there will be in the litter."

Sesshoumaru bent down and put his ear to her still flat stomach. When he lifted his head up he smelled the air again. He looked at her and smiled. He could see the excitement in her now green eyes. "There will be four, three boys and a girl."

She hugged him tightly. She was so excited about being able to give her mate the only other thing that could make him happy, pups. Four pups. A normal youkai littler is about one or two. Hers was four.
