Kagome woke up slowly, smiled when she felt a strong pair of arms around
her. "Sesshoumaru," she said pleasantly, loving the way she felt his softly
chuckle rumble out of his strong chest that was pressed firmly to her back.
Sesshoumaru kissed her bare shoulder, softly. "So you have woken?" he nuzzled the back of her neck. Kagome turned around, and kissed him, giggling when he growled playfully. Resting her head back on her pillow, Sesshoumaru and Kagome laid in a comfortable silence.
Kagome used his arm that laid stretched out, as a pillow, her leg tangled within his, as he free hand rested peacefully on her stomach. Kagome placed a hand on his own hand that rested on her stomach, the other arm rested softly on her lower stomach.
"What's it like at the camp?" Kagome asked. Sesshoumaru closed his eyes softly picturing the camp in his eyes.
"Music can all ways be heard at night, along with fires lighting up the place. Youkai are dancing, joking, and talking along side each other. Every one is pleasant with each other, and act like family. During the day, they work side by side, helping out, making sure every thing is perfect, for what ever should happen," Kagome smiled.
"How is Kouga and Ayami?" Kagome laughed when Sesshoumaru rolled his eyes, and slowly shook his head.
"That good?"
"I've never seen such a head-over-heels-in-love man then Kouga. I swear, sometimes Ayami gets annoyed with it," Kagome grinned.
"That's good. At least he treats her right," Sesshoumaru nodded as they lapsed into silence again. Kagome snuggled close to him, smiling contentedly as he started to place butterfly kisses up and down her neck and shoulder. Kagome placed a hand on his waist, as they both where laying on their sides now, and slowly slid her hand up and down, moving even closer now, and Sesshoumaru hands began to play with her hair softly, making Kagome melt against him.
Sesshoumaru kissed her color bone softly, as he moved her to lay on her back, slowly slipping his bent leg between her own legs, as he suckled on her right breast. Kagome's hand slipped between his long silver silky strands of hair.
Sesshoumaru trailed kisses up her neck, nipping at her ear lope, and started kissing her. Sesshoumaru's eyes snapped open Kagome suddenly flipped them over she was on top and straddled him. She smiled evilly as she started to nip, suck, and kiss at the side of his neck where she had marked him as her own. Sesshoumaru growled so low, it seemed he was purring, contentedly as rubbed his hands down her back.
"You took care of me last night . . .It's my tern to play," Sesshoumaru seemed to turn on like a light switch at her words, as Kagome found out, as she felt something warm poke at her thigh.
"Is that so?" Sesshoumaru growled at her, his golden eyes twinkling at the thought. Kagome met his smirk.
"Yes,"
"And who said it was your tern to 'play'?"
"Me," she whispered in her ear, as she suckled on his earlobe, making him hiss in pleasure. Kissing down his chest, to his member, where she with out even thinking, took him fully in her mouth. Sesshoumaru gasped bucking his hips up in surprise. "Ka-Kagome!" he said in shock, throwing back his head in pleasure, as he softly lifted his hips to meet her mouth, as she slid her mouth up and down his shaft. "Sssst-stop," Sesshoumaru said after a few minutes. "I want thisss to lasst," his finally hissed out. Kagome slowly slid her mouth off it, kissing his tip, before going off to kiss him, straddling his hips. Kagome gasped when she found her self suddenly slammed against the being kissed hungrily, as Sesshoumaru hurriedly slammed into her.
"Oh GODS!" Kagome moaned loudly in his ear, making him growl. "Faster! Oh Sesshoumaru, harder!" Sesshoumaru fulfilled her wish, pounding into her like he was a madman, holding her hands above her head.
Kissing her hard, then every so softly, then back to hard, knowing it was driving her crazy. Sesshoumaru carefully watched his mate's face, filled with pleasure, as she bucked her hips back to meet his. It just spurred his arousal closer to its peak.
Both of their releases where powerful, as they both growled at each other hungrily. Calming down Sesshoumaru could feel the tips of her breast softly brush against his chest as she panted hurriedly gasped for air. Releasing her arms, he slid out of her, and collapsing on his back, bringing her on top of him, enjoying her wait on him, wrapping his arms around her. Kagome kissed him softly, before resting her head on his shoulder, nuzzling his neck.
"Are we just going to stay in this bed all day?" Kagome giggled. "It's all ready mid afternoon,"
"I don't see why not," Sesshoumaru smirked at her. "I'm quite enjoying my self," Kagome let out a soft yelp as a sudden clawed hand gripped her ass and squeezed slightly.
"Sesshoumaru!" Kagome gasped glaring at him, Sesshoumaru chuckled as he brought his hand back on her back. "Come on," Kagome said rolling off him, grinning at his grunt of protest as he tried to catch her. "Let's go! What did you bring with you?!" Kagome dragged the bags away from the closet, still in the nude, as Sesshoumaru stared at her amused. "Rocks?!" Stepping into the closet, she brought out a miko outfit, as she knew there would be some work to be done about the place. Their all ways was.
"Gifts. For all off you," he lifted one up, after placing on some pants, taking Kagome's hand and leading her back to the futon. Sitting down, he carefully took out the wrapped packages, and gave her five.
"Sesshou," Kagome breathed with out even opening. "You didn't have too," Sesshoumaru shrugged, kissing her softly.
"I wanted to please my mate,"
"You don't have to buy me things to please me. Just love me," She kissed Sesshoumaru softly and sweetly, before resting her head on his shoulder, as he wrapped an arm around her waist. She placed all but on beside her, as she rested the one she picked first on her lap, and she carefully opened it. She gasped, as a something all most liquidity fell into her hands.
"Stand up, my love," Sesshoumaru whispered, standing up also. Taking the strange substance, he held it against her showing her the most beautiful kimono known to man along with youkai.
"Sesshoumaru! Where did you get this?" Kagome asked, as she let Sesshoumaru disrobe her, and dress her in the silver silk kimono. It clung to her in all the right places, making her look like an angle, and not just a demon.
"I...Picked it up along the way. I thought of your instantly when I saw it,"
"Thank you so much!" She threw her arms around his neck, kissing him deeply, as he wrapped his own arms around her waist.
"Go open your other gifts," Kagome smiled as she nodded, sitting back down on the futon along with Sesshoumaru.
Then next gift turned into a large book. When she opened it her smile lit up her own face. "Is this your camp?" Kagome asked Sesshoumaru, as she looked at the countless numbers of sketches of places of camps, villages, all sorts of people, including quite a few of Sesshoumaru and Kouga working, while a few where just portraits. Under each portrait Sesshoumaru had taken the time to right what was going on in the picture, when the picture happened, and who was in the picture. Kagome would truly treasure this.
"Yes. There is Kouga's son," Sesshoumaru smirked when they came too a picture of Kouga's son chasing Jaken around. Kagome laughed at the sight of Jaken's face. "And that reminds me. Kouga sends his best," Kagome smiled up to him, kissing the corner of his mouth.
"Thank you. The camp is beautiful, isn't it?" Kagome had just came upon a picture that was done, after the first battle with Sakura. Kouga and Sesshoumaru had sat themselves among their fellow men, listening to the music, watching people dance, joining in on the conversation, and eating their foods together.
"Yes. Mostly at night," Sesshoumaru agreed. Taking the book away from her hands, he said, "We can look at this later. And I'm sure Akira and Rin would love to see it also. Open your other gifts," Kagome smiled, nodding as she pictured up the third gift.
The third gift proved to be amazing combs that would look wonderful in Kagome's hair for decoration, and brushing. They where made from the finest ivory and such, and had many wonderful bright colors that would make any girl jealous.
The fourth gift was a silver chain necklace with a small crystal sickle moon, with a matching ring. Kagome let Sesshoumaru place the necklace around her neck, and place the ring on her finger. "Let the world know whom you belong too," Sesshoumaru whispered in her ear as he placed the necklace on, making her shiver.
And the fifth and final gift was a parchment and quill set that would make the gods envy. "I look forward to future letters," Sesshoumaru smirked, as he watched his mate adore the set.
"Sesshoumaru. These are most beautiful things anyone has ever given me. I...I don't know what to say," Kagome looked up at him with happy tears forming in her eyes.
"Sometimes it's best not to say anything at all," Sesshoumaru whispered as he dipped down his head to kiss her.
~~
Every one had loved their new gifts. Akira all but hugged Sesshoumaru (thankfully he refrained) when Sesshoumaru gave him a new sword that would envy the very gods. The sword shone with newness, as a golden wolf ran down the edge, symbolizing the wolf youkai in him, with writings transcript of the blade, full of blessings from a known miko. The handle was a fine ivory with a blue sickle moon in the middle of the cross shaped handle on each side, symbolizing he had joined the taiyoukai of the west family.
Every one ate dinner at the table, including InuYasha, Sango, Miroku, and Keade. They where laughing and talking.
"So, brother," InuYasha said. "How is the war?" Sesshoumaru smirked, while as everyone held their breath. He had refrained from telling anybody of what was going on with the war, even though they where dyeing to know. He wanted every one there, so he would have to tell the story over and over again.
"I'm pleased to say that the war will soon be over," cheers went throughout the table, while Kagome smiled, tears forming in her eyes as she placed a hand on Sesshoumaru's that was resting on the table. "I will be able the send every one home soon, once we conquer the north," Every one's smiles grew bigger.
"What about the other lands?" Miroku asked. "Are they going you in his fight?"
"The east and south have kindly declined fighting in this war, as both of the lands have been having finance trouble's, and couldn't afford the costly bills of war," Sesshoumaru said, his hand tightening around Kagome's.
"But I hear the north is the poorest of all the lands. How is it that he can afford such bills when the others can't,"
"He can't afford it. The lord of the north has been said to have leprosy and he wishes to see my down fall before he dies no matter what ever the cost," Sesshoumaru smirked. "Though he'll never see it, so this is all in vein," the others smiled softly and nodded.
"Sesshoumaru," Kagome said quietly so the other's couldn't here. InuYasha and Akira where to busy talking to someone else to notice.
"Yes, Kagome?" Sesshoumaru asked in just as quiet voice, his hand never letting go of her hers.
"Does this mean you are coming home soon?" Sesshoumaru blessed her with one of his rare smiles.
"Yes. I'll be home soon. Should last no longer then a month," Kagome smiled brightly at him, as Sesshoumaru lifted her hand up to his lips, kissing the back of her hand softly. "We shall be together again in no time at all,"
Rin watched the small display of emotion coming from her father, and smiled. He did truly love Kagome that was sure. Rin had to admit, she was a little bit skeptical at first, thinking that Sesshoumaru was regretting ever taking Kagome on as mate, but now she was sure that he only regretted on thing. Not taking Kagome on as a mate properly, instead of the way he did that night that he made a deal with Kagome.
Rin jumped a little, when Akira took her hand that was resting her lap. "You are right lass?" Akira asked softly. Rin nodded.
"I'm fine. I was just thinking," Akira smiled at her, winking softly, before going back to the conversation that was on the table. That was something that Rin adored of Akira. Akira didn't pester her about something like that. If she didn't want to tell him every single thing that she thought, he would pester her. Rin truly did love him.
Though loving him was no easy task. She knew what the villagers whispered about her, when she turned her back. Saying that she was 'easy' and that Akira was just a sick man looking for the youngest vulnerable girl he could find. If only they knew. Their love was true. Rin knew it was, along with Akira.
The only problem was the messy age difference.
~~
Kagome was sleeping softly, while Sesshoumaru held his son sitting up in the futon where Kagome laid beside him. He felt quilty. What kind of a father was he being? The longest time he had ever stayed with Kanzaburo was a week when Kagome first came home with him. He knew Kanzaburo recognized Akira better then he recognized himself. If Kanzaburo were old enough to talk, Sesshoumaru wouldn't have been surprised if Kanzaburo called InuYasha and Akira his father.
{I vow, once this war is over, I will never see that Kanzaburo is left without a father, nor Rin. Nor will I let Kagome go with out a proper mate to take care of her.} Sesshoumaru looked down at his sleeping mate, a small smile came upon his lips. {I will train her once I get out of this war.} Sesshoumaru wanted to be the person that taught things to Kagome. Sesshoumaru would never allow Akira to be in a sweaty dojo with his mate, equally as sweaty, promised to Rin or not. {My Kagome,} Sesshoumaru thought. {My Love,} dipping his head softly, he placed a small kiss on Kanzaburo's sleeping forehead, much like he had done in secret with Rin, when she first entered his presence. 'Till this day, Rin had no clue of the nights Sesshoumaru had stayed up looking after her, studying her in her sleep. Looking around himself, Sesshoumaru realized the fortune that he had been struck with. A lovely daughter, who was all ready, promised to a well- mannered and strong wolf youkai. A strong son, who would be his successor if they Kami wished him dead. And a mate who was too good for him, and shouldn't have been his in the first place, and strong at tha-... Something struck his thoughts stopping him from continuing.
Kagome was miko. The rebirth of a powerful one as well. He had seen her power in their fights, and knew that she even had the power to literally 'see' the shikon no tama shards when they where broken. Like the time when he had borrowed a human limb from Naraku, with the shikon no tama shard in it. Kagome all most sensed it right away. And managed to break his chest shield that could have been his life, had no been for his armor.
But he had never seen her use it ever sense Naraku's down fall. Not sense Kikyou was killed. He would ask her about that in the morning.
"Sesshou?" Sesshoumaru looked down at Kagome who had woken up. She sat up pulling up the covers to cover her self modestly. "What are you still up for?"
"I was just thinking, mate," Kagome's eye brow arched at the term he called her. Sesshoumaru smirked down at her, kissing her on the forehead. Getting up he walked across the room, placing Kanzaburo skillfully down, so not to wake him, before coming back beside Kagome.
Kagome wasted no time at all before cuddling up to his side. Sesshoumaru closed his eyes, expecting to go to sleep running his hands through Kagome's hair, only for them to snap back open again, when Kagome suddenly started licking the mark on his neck, making him growl uncontrollably in pleasure. Kagome smiled softly, as she kissed the white scar, before sucking on the skin, pushing Sesshoumaru to his back, as she straddled him, smiling when she felt his member poke her in the thigh. "Getting exited?" she whispered seductively in his ear. Sesshoumaru smirked at her.
"How could I not when I have a beautiful inu youkai sucking at my neck trying to saduse me," Kagome grinned at him, kissing him, she ran her tongue over his lips, begging for entrance, but driving him insane when she refused, instead nibbling on his lips. Seeing Kagome like this made him the most hard. Secretly inside, he loved it when a woman took control like that. Sure, he loved having Kagome whimpering from need for him under him, but seeing her like this, drove him mad with need.
Kagome kissed her way down his neck, and chest, the tip of her tongue flicking out against his bellybutton, making him draw in a shaking breath, as her silky hair tickled his inner thighs, and member. Her tongue flicked out against the tip of him, making him moan, before blowing softly. Sesshoumaru growled. "You little vixen!" he growled at her, making her smirk.
"You call me that now, but just you wait," she whispered to him holding many promises of pleasure to come. Sesshoumaru growled but the growl turned into a gasp as Kagome took him fully into her mouth. Sesshoumaru sat up on his elbows and lower arms, to watch her spurring his own pleasure to new highs as he watched Kagome's mouth move up and down his member.
Ten minutes later, Sesshoumaru new he was close to coming. "Ka-Kagome...I-I'm c-cumming!" Kagome let go off him long enough to say,
"Let it go," before placing her mouth back over him, sucking even harder.
"Oh, GODS!" Sesshoumaru growled as he came in her mouth. He started to whimper when he came down from his release feeling Kagome clean him off hungrily. Moving up in the futon again, she propped her head up on her hand and elbow, while Sesshoumaru stared up at her sucking in shaky breaths shivering with the after effects of his mind numbing release. Kagome slowly brushed his bangs away from his damp forehead. Slowly Sesshoumaru lifted his hand, using his finger to motion for her to come closer, as he wasn't sure if his voice was up to it yet. Kagome snuggled up to his side, nuzzling her face in his neck, kissing him softly on the neck. Sesshoumaru placed a hand on her cheek, bringing back his head a little bit to look her in the eye. Kagome smiled softly up at him, feeling suddenly nervous under his intense gaze, unable to look away. Slowly with out even realizing that they where moving, they found themselves kissing each other sweetly. Kagome thought it had to be one of the sweetest kisses Sesshoumaru had ever gave her, while she tried to return the kiss with every ounce of love she had for him, as he did the same.
This was a night to remember.
~~
YAY! Another chapter done!
I'm so happy!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL YOUR KIND REVIEWS!!!!!!!!!
Though I have to admit, this story is closing to an end! *Tears* I think at the most there will be three to four more chapters, then an epilogue.
Please review! I won't update if I get at least five!
Sesshoumaru kissed her bare shoulder, softly. "So you have woken?" he nuzzled the back of her neck. Kagome turned around, and kissed him, giggling when he growled playfully. Resting her head back on her pillow, Sesshoumaru and Kagome laid in a comfortable silence.
Kagome used his arm that laid stretched out, as a pillow, her leg tangled within his, as he free hand rested peacefully on her stomach. Kagome placed a hand on his own hand that rested on her stomach, the other arm rested softly on her lower stomach.

"How is Kouga and Ayami?" Kagome laughed when Sesshoumaru rolled his eyes, and slowly shook his head.
"That good?"
"I've never seen such a head-over-heels-in-love man then Kouga. I swear, sometimes Ayami gets annoyed with it," Kagome grinned.
"That's good. At least he treats her right," Sesshoumaru nodded as they lapsed into silence again. Kagome snuggled close to him, smiling contentedly as he started to place butterfly kisses up and down her neck and shoulder. Kagome placed a hand on his waist, as they both where laying on their sides now, and slowly slid her hand up and down, moving even closer now, and Sesshoumaru hands began to play with her hair softly, making Kagome melt against him.

"Me," she whispered in her ear, as she suckled on his earlobe, making him hiss in pleasure. Kissing down his chest, to his member, where she with out even thinking, took him fully in her mouth. Sesshoumaru gasped bucking his hips up in surprise.

Kissing her hard, then every so softly, then back to hard, knowing it was driving her crazy. Sesshoumaru carefully watched his mate's face, filled with pleasure, as she bucked her hips back to meet his. It just spurred his arousal closer to its peak.
Both of their releases where powerful, as they both growled at each other hungrily.

"Stand up, my love," Sesshoumaru whispered, standing up also. Taking the strange substance, he held it against her showing her the most beautiful kimono known to man along with youkai.

'Till this day, Rin had no clue of the nights Sesshoumaru had stayed up looking after her, studying her in her sleep. Looking around himself, Sesshoumaru realized the fortune that he had been struck with. A lovely daughter, who was all ready, promised to a well- mannered and strong wolf youkai. A strong son, who would be his successor if they Kami wished him dead. And a mate who was too good for him, and shouldn't have been his in the first place, and strong at tha-... Something struck his thoughts stopping him from continuing.
Kagome was miko. The rebirth of a powerful one as well. He had seen her power in their fights, and knew that she even had the power to literally 'see' the shikon no tama shards when they where broken. Like the time when he had borrowed a human limb from Naraku, with the shikon no tama shard in it. Kagome all most sensed it right away. And managed to break his chest shield that could have been his life, had no been for his armor.
But he had never seen her use it ever sense Naraku's down fall. Not sense Kikyou was killed. He would ask her about that in the morning.
"Sesshou?" Sesshoumaru looked down at Kagome who had woken up. She sat up pulling up the covers to cover her self modestly. "What are you still up for?"
"I was just thinking, mate," Kagome's eye brow arched at the term he called her. Sesshoumaru smirked down at her, kissing her on the forehead. Getting up he walked across the room, placing Kanzaburo skillfully down, so not to wake him, before coming back beside Kagome.
Kagome wasted no time at all before cuddling up to his side. Sesshoumaru closed his eyes, expecting to go to sleep running his hands through Kagome's hair, only for them to snap back open again, when Kagome suddenly started licking the mark on his neck, making him growl uncontrollably in pleasure. Kagome smiled softly, as she kissed the white scar, before sucking on the skin, pushing Sesshoumaru to his back, as she straddled him, smiling when she felt his member poke her in the thigh. "Getting exited?" she whispered seductively in his ear. Sesshoumaru smirked at her.
"How could I not when I have a beautiful inu youkai sucking at my neck trying to saduse me," Kagome grinned at him, kissing him, she ran her tongue over his lips, begging for entrance, but driving him insane when she refused, instead nibbling on his lips. Seeing Kagome like this made him the most hard. Secretly inside, he loved it when a woman took control like that. Sure, he loved having Kagome whimpering from need for him under him, but seeing her like this, drove him mad with need.
Kagome kissed her way down his neck, and chest, the tip of her tongue flicking out against his bellybutton, making him draw in a shaking breath, as her silky hair tickled his inner thighs, and member. Her tongue flicked out against the tip of him, making him moan, before blowing softly. Sesshoumaru growled. "You little vixen!" he growled at her, making her smirk.
"You call me that now, but just you wait," she whispered to him holding many promises of pleasure to come. Sesshoumaru growled but the growl turned into a gasp as Kagome took him fully into her mouth. Sesshoumaru sat up on his elbows and lower arms, to watch her spurring his own pleasure to new highs as he watched Kagome's mouth move up and down his member.
Ten minutes later, Sesshoumaru new he was close to coming. "Ka-Kagome...I-I'm c-cumming!" Kagome let go off him long enough to say,
"Let it go," before placing her mouth back over him, sucking even harder.
"Oh, GODS!" Sesshoumaru growled as he came in her mouth. He started to whimper when he came down from his release feeling Kagome clean him off hungrily. Moving up in the futon again, she propped her head up on her hand and elbow, while Sesshoumaru stared up at her sucking in shaky breaths shivering with the after effects of his mind numbing release. Kagome slowly brushed his bangs away from his damp forehead. Slowly Sesshoumaru lifted his hand, using his finger to motion for her to come closer, as he wasn't sure if his voice was up to it yet. Kagome snuggled up to his side, nuzzling her face in his neck, kissing him softly on the neck. Sesshoumaru placed a hand on her cheek, bringing back his head a little bit to look her in the eye. Kagome smiled softly up at him, feeling suddenly nervous under his intense gaze, unable to look away. Slowly with out even realizing that they where moving, they found themselves kissing each other sweetly. Kagome thought it had to be one of the sweetest kisses Sesshoumaru had ever gave her, while she tried to return the kiss with every ounce of love she had for him, as he did the same.
This was a night to remember.
