Disclaimer: No, I don't own Inuyasha. Rumiko Takahashi does. And how many of you are going to be angry if she doesn't make Inuyasha and Kagome end up together? Yeah...I can see the mob already! lol.
Author's Note: I can already hear your complaints. Don't worry; I'm still doing Methods of Seduction. This idea though has been swimming around in my head though ever since the idea of Kag bearing Inu's pups started floating around. Yeah, I know, it's almost the norm to see this topic at least once everyday on but I just love the idea of Inu-chan being a father. I just see him as the kind that would wanna keep popping out babies! Or, in his terms, pups. grin And, as I'm sure many of you will wonder, will this be a hint towards any future chapters in Methods of Seduction? Well, you'll just have to keep reading won't you? I'm not about to reveal any of my secrets for that story! evil grin

Household Breeding
Chapter: 1
It was pretty hot. No, it was extremely hot. Well, that was his conclusion from sitting outside for the better portion of the day. Inuyasha was currently sitting at the base of a large oak, relaxing in the shade that it offered. His chest was bare, his haori top having been discarded a long time ago when the heat had reached to an unbearable level. His furry ears twitched atop his silver-haired head as he heard a gurgle. He looked down at his chest.
"What're you so happy about?" He asked the tiny, two-year old resting on his chest with a raised brow. He hadn't expected an answer from the tiny pup so he settled with his son's happy babbling at being paid attention to as an answer. He gently smiled back at his son and reached up to softly rub the boy's small, silver ears atop his silver-haired head. His son looked just like him. "A spitting-image," Kagome had said.
He rubbed his son's back in soothing strokes and the silver-haired pup gurgled happily before pulling his father's prayer beads into his mouth to suck and chew on. Inuyasha chuckled at his childish antics. "Still after those beads, Kuno? Your mother will never take them off so just give up on them now." The little boy gave no signs to having heard his father's bemoaning speech and continued to happily chew and gnaw on the dark, indigo beads and white fangs. Inuyasha just sighed and closed his eyes, resting them for the time being. His ears swiveled around continuously though, listening for any threats that could endanger his young pup. His mind drifted back to the last three years of his life and he stopped at the remembrance of Kuno's birth. Well...more like his conception...
The battle with Naraku had finally ended in their victory but it had not been without its share of losses and injuries. Sango had lost her brother, Kohaku, after Naraku had so greedily and angrily snatched the shard out of his back when he had protected Sango from a rogue youkai attack. The tajiya had been devastated and plunged deep into a depression that not even Kagome could pull her from. The extent of her injuries had been fair, not life threatening, but nonetheless important and in the end, a deeply affected and worried monk had been the one to pull her out of her stoop. How he had pulled her from her depressing state—nobody knew. Even the lecher hadn't hinted to what his method had been. It had been a strange situation to encounter but everybody had been glad to see the exterminator up and about again. A month and a half later, the method to which the Houshi had used to pull Sango from her depression was revealed when the exterminator nervously announced that she was pregnant and in eight months time, she bore twins. A boy and a girl. He had never seen the monk so happy in his entire life. And that was saying something since he'd seemed pretty joyful groping anything that remotely resembled a female while they'd journeyed. But, then again, he'd paid the price heavily when Sango smashed haraikotsu into his head all those times. It was amazing he didn't have brain damage.
Miroku, he'd suffered a huge gash in his hand where the kazanna used to be after the battle. His robes had been torn beyond comprehension and he had been littered with bruises and broken bones as the rest of them had been. He'd been unconscious on the trek back to the village from the battlefield and Sango had held him against her on the fire cat.
His hand was bandaged for several months, even for his wedding ceremony that had attracted the whole village, and finally; in the fifth month of Sango's pregnancy was he able to remove it. The monk had cried out tears of happiness as he had stared at his smooth, but slightly scarred, palm and he'd spent a good three days holed up in his new hut with his wife doing...unmentionable things. But, it's not like they weren't heard by his sensitive inu ears. It had been a rather unpleasant and disgusting scenario for him to experience, and Miroku hadn't seemed so understanding to his... 'Heightened senses'...and had just smirked cockily with a sometimes goofy grin over-taking his features. It was about right then that he would've killed the lecher had he not suggested to build his own hut. Sango had been more than happy to move out of Kaede's small three-room hut and into her own home. Kaede, he was sure, had never been happier than to have them out of her hut even though she had offered quite generously for them to stay.
Kagome. Kagome had been...well, she had caused a myriad of emotions to stir within him during and after the fight with Naraku. As always, during a fight, he'd kept her the farthest away from the battle and danger so he could focus on Naraku without worrying about her. She had a strong spirit and a fierce determination in her, but that didn't make her strong physically. To say that she had been useless would have been a total, bold, faced lie though as she had shot purifying arrows at the hordes of demons attacking them. It had saved them countless of times. Kagome was the group's rock, its strong place, which kept everybody together and working. She was the center, which everybody branched off from having been affected by her kind and unselfish spirit. She had changed them all for the better and they had almost lost their rock.
Towards the end of the battle, to the part where Naraku had been finally losing, she had been targeted solely by Naraku himself even as she, herself, had summoned all of her energy and strength into one shot as she had let her arrow fly towards his heart. A bright flash of light had erupted, echoed by the soul-rendering cries of the dying Naraku. They hadn't been able to see Kagome. It was what had terrified him the most. Losing her, after all they had suffered, encountered and lived through, would break his will to live. The light had died down revealing a bloodied, but conscious, Kagome. They'd all hauled ass back to Kaede's to insure her survival. Shippo had been distraught and panicked—very much like he had felt—to see his surrogate mother like that. The scent of her blood had done nothing but worsen the situation and in the end, he'd had to render the poor kit unconscious while wrapping him in Kagome's spare, blood-free clothes in another room.
Kaede and he devoted all their time—breathing, sleeping, and eating— to making sure that the miko returned to full health. Sango hadn't yet entered her depression and had been able to care for the monk and herself for awhile.
Kagome's condition had gradually increased towards a positive direction but a sudden, chilly night proved to be a turn for the worse as she had teetered at the border between life and death. The whole night, and the following day, everyone had been worrying and wondering if they were about to lose the young, modern miko from the future, that, of her own will, came and repeatedly visited and stayed in the past, with them, to help gather shards that meant of no consequence to her but meant a great deal to them. Everyone had been worried to death and he had gone ballistic with panic and desperation. But, she had pulled back from the calling of death and stayed with them, with him and he'd never been so relieved and thankful in his life. And that was saying something.
When spring arrived, Kagome had announced that she was staying in the past to her family, and that she'd visit whenever she could—which was quite often in his opinion. With spring also came mating season. And boy did it slam down on him hard. Kagome had always wanted to know his feelings, and she'd finally felt the brunt of them. The need to suddenly mate had rather floored him and for several days—only in the beginning—he'd felt quite a bit hazy and always too hot. But then, Kagome had gone into heat. She'd gone into heat during mating season. His sexual desire had been at its peak and roaring in his ears so loudly that he couldn't focus on anything but that desire to take a mate and produce offspring. She hadn't stood a chance against his advances and he had taken her far away into the woods for privacy—for several days. He had expressed his love for her as well as she had.
The meaning of Kagome's 'heat' meant that she was ready to take a mate and carry children. Particularly—and only—his children. Her body—unknown to her—sent out pheromones that let every single male in the vicinity know that she was fertile—and unclaimed—and those particular body scents had targeted him mainly as a potential mate and breeding partner. He hadn't been able to resist since it was naturally in his nature. And he hadn't wanted to either.
Even though her 'heat' period had ended within a week, that hadn't meant mating season was over. For all of spring he'd spent more time focusing on her, uh, more exotic 'features' than anything else. To say he had been a rather 'horny dog'—as Kagome had called him—was correct. He had always wanted her and there wasn't a time or place that he held his feelings back when he needed her. The monk and tajiya had been sole witnesses of this when he had begun to get it on with Kagome in the hot springs—when Sango was supposed to be joining Kagome for 'girl talk.' Needless to say, Sango had never gone back to the hot springs to meet Kagome unless the miko was right along with her. When spring ended however, his more 'persistent desires' had died down to a minimum, but not to such a low level that he never wanted any. As if that would ever happen. Kagome felt way too good.
During fall, he'd built them a hut of their own on the outskirts of the village, where there were plenty of trees and so that Kagome could be near the 'hot springs' for her baths. The hut was a bit bigger than normal, having at least five rooms, one for him and Kagome, another for the main room and the remaining three for any pups they had. And they would be having some quite soon too. He'd already made sure of that, Kagome being none the wiser of his actions.
Fall had officially marked Kagome's one-month pregnancy date. A date she knew nothing about. He'd gotten her pregnant—he'd been planning it—during her 'heat.' He hadn't told her right away simply just so he could figure things out. It was natural for a female to get pregnant during her 'heat,' but what most didn't know was that the male made the final decision, being demon and all. He'd made the decision, without her knowledge and he didn't know how she'd take it. He eventually told her and she had passed out rather alarmingly in front of him. After she came to though, she expressed her joy and they—for celebration—had coupled all night long. He had enjoyed it very much.
Kagome had then experienced out-of-control, raging hormones, cravings and lustful desires that spanned over the better portion of nine full months. When the time came for the pup to be birthed, it was a dark and stormy night and they were all holed up in Kaede's hut, him going into a full-blown panic over his laboring mate. The heavens had roared loudly and the skies had flashed brightly, drowning out his mate's pain-filled cries as she had struggled to give birth to his first-born. At the break of dawn, his son had emerged from Kagome's womb with a strong cry and slid—his tiny body still wet with blood and fluids from the womb—into his strong arms, soaking his haori and hakama pants. He had gathered the tiny, wailing, silver-haired pup into his arms, nuzzling and snuffling at him with immense love and awe. What had really tugged some chords in his heart though was when the pup had been washed off and Kagome had been cleaned up, that he'd discovered a tiny pair of white, furry, triangular ears atop his son's head. They were just like his father's. Like his.
The tiny triangular ears of his infant son had brought tears to his eyes, even though he had struggled to keep them at bay. As soon as he'd stopped fawning over the infant pup, which was a long time, he'd handed the pup to its mother who joyfully—with a teary-eyed smile—took him and cuddled him. After she had gotten a good look at what she'd just brought into the world, the pup—soon to be named Kuno—began to cry loudly; a clear indication that he was starving. He, himself, had scooted behind Kagome, pulling her against his chest, as she had brought their son to her breast for feeding. Kuno had happily latched on to the closest nipple available to him and had begun to jaw furiously at her breast; little mewls of contentment coming from him. He had smiled warmly as he had watched his son nurse and had nuzzled his mate affectionately and lovingly…
A tiny cry jerked Inuyasha from his pleasant thoughts and he looked at Kuno. "What's wrong, pup?" The tiny child's answer was a loud sniffle and another short cry. Inuyasha stood so he could lightly bounce his son against his shoulder in an effort to calm him. He hugged his pup close to his chest and ran his hands soothingly up and down the little boy's back. "Shh, shh what's wrong? Do ya miss Kaa-san?" The little boy turned his head into the crook of his father's neck and snuffled, grabbing tiny, fist-fulls of his father's silvery hair. Inuyasha gently rubbed Kuno's small dog-ears, trying to consol him but all he got in return was a tiny, pup-like bark from his son. Inuyasha immediately understood what his son had said, more like whined, and answered him back in inu-youkai. He felt his son sigh and sniffle, but the cries had died down.
Inuyasha knew that right away that when Kuno had been born, he would already know the inu-youkai language. It was instinctual and most pups began to communicate that way. Well, they went from gurgling and cooing to barking and growling and such. Kagome often wondered what her son would be saying when he lightly whined and barked at her. He'd told her, "Kuno is telling you that he's hungry. Usually that's what he means when he does that towards you, but sometimes it can mean attention or something else. It varies."
Suddenly, a very well-known scent caught his attention and he began to walk towards its lovely, tantalizing fragrance. Kuno also caught the scent in the air as he sat up quickly in his father's arms and began to squirm rather excitedly. Inuyasha grunted as one of Kuno's feet caught him in the stomach as the child wriggled happily and anxiously. He growled low to get Kuno to settle down and the pup, hearing the reprimanding growl, settled down but his ears remained perked and alert, twitching so rapidly that Inuyasha had to chuckle.
A figure soon appeared in their sight and Kuno gave a tiny bark. Inuyasha lightly laughed and ruffled his son's hair. "Guess you want your Okaa-san huh, pup?" The said pup gurgled and yipped happily before squawking out, "Kaa!" his little arms reaching out towards the figure who had finally reached them. Kagome smiled, and took the pup into her arms, hugging him tightly to her chest. "And how is my little pup?" She cooed into Kuno's little, silver dog-ears. He giggled happily and nuzzled into the crook of her shoulder. His legs wrapped around her torso and his little, chubby arms wound themselves around her neck. Inuyasha smiled at the scene before him. Kagome looked up at Inuyasha and smiled so lovingly that it heated his blood and gaze.
He pulled her gently into his arms and against his chest and nuzzled into her hair, sighing as he did so. "I missed you…" He mumbled.
Kagome made a slight humming sound as she reached one of her hands up to rub one of his dog ears softly. "I missed you too, Koishi, but I wasn't gone that long you know." Inuyasha growled softly in pleasure at the emotions she was evoking in him with the ear rubbing. "Whenever you're away from me, it's too long. Even Kuno thinks so."
Kagome laughed softly, "My poor koinus…are they lonely without mommy?"
Inuyasha snorted and looked rather put-out. "I ain't no koinu. Kuno is, but I'm not. I'm an inu; full grown and everything. And you're not my mommy, little girl…" He growled teasingly into her ear. She giggled slightly and replied teasingly also, "Full grown huh? Are you sure about that? Maybe I should check to make sure…?"
He growled at her, a smirk on his face. "I wouldn't have any problems with that at all." "Of course you wouldn't, my hentai dog."
Inuyasha grinned proudly. "Only for you, koi."
She sighed mock despairingly and moaned. "Well… then poor me, ne?" He growled as she giggled.
She yawned loudly, followed by Kuno who was already half asleep against her shoulder. "Oh Inuyasha, he's exhausted. We'd better get him home so I can lay him down." Inuyasha nodded and picked her up bridal-style. "You look tired yourself." He noted. She yawned as she laid her head on his shoulder. "I'm not that tired. Besides I wasn't the one doing all the work. Sango-chan was. I was just delivering it for her, Inuyasha."
"Feh."
"I knew that'd be your answer."
He snorted. "So what'd she have this time?"
"Mmm…twins. Two boys this time."
Inuyasha smirked and shook his head. "Another set of twins? Damn. Now she's got
two more future lechers to deal with." He laughed as Kagome smacked his arm.
"That's not funny."
"Keh. Yeah it is."
"I know she wanted another girl this time around. But she's not disappointed."
"It's not like the monk will hesitate to give her more anyways. He'll be more than happy to actually."
"Inuyasha!"
"What? It's true. He said it himself. He wants at least 20 children." He sighed. "Kami, that's a lot of lechers."
Kagome giggled but stopped as another yawn worked free from her mouth.
"Rest, Koi, onegai. I don't want you to get exhausted."
Kagome wanted to protest, but the low grumbling coming from her mate's chest had her peacefully closing her eyes. In no time at all, she was fast asleep—Kuno nestled protectively in her embrace—and carried home in strong, loving arms and put to bed for the night with her silver-haired hanyous.
