A/N: Ok, this is it. It is finished. I wanted to show everyone what had been happening in the lives of Kagome and Kouga after they got back together and had their pup.

I am sad to see it end, but I have a lot more ideas and am excited to be able to close the cover on this story and finish off some of my other projects. So, should anyone like to make a sequal to this story, go for it. Just let me know the title so I can read it, ok.

Thanks for all of the awesome reviews. They kept me inspired and helped in the completion of this fic. Without you guys, the story might have died long ago.

Enjoy this final piece and I look forward to seeing you guys soon.


Kouga smiled. He watched as Kagome held their new pup in her arms and cooed at it. He walked over and lovingly placed a kiss on the top of her head. She giggled and looked up at him.

"Well, what do you think, dad?" She teased, loving the way his face glowed proudly.

Kouga ran a finger over his son's little wolf ears and he smiled. "He is perfect, just like his mother." He said.

Kagome yawned and felt Kouga lean over her to pick their pup up. The pup mewled when his father's hands came into contact with him and he then jammed his fist into his mouth and began to suck on it.

Kouga's blue eyes twinkled as he chuckled at his son's behavior. The tiny grunts and whines told the new parents that their pup was happy and content, at least for now.

Kouga walked over to the rocking chair and sat down. He watched as his son relaxed in his arms and quickly fell asleep. Bringing his face down to the pup's head, Kouga took in a deep breath and smiled. He wanted to remember every scent, sight, and sound. He glanced over at Kagome and grinned when he saw that she had fallen asleep. She deserved it. She had worked so hard to deliver their pup and now that he was here, she deserved a rest.

Kouga leaned back and slowly began to rock. He thought about the months since he had brought Kagome to live at their home and he found that he was quickly wrapped up in memories.

True to his word, he took Kagome shopping the next day for clothing. He bought her maternity outfits that flattered her growing body and though she insisted that they cost too much, he bought her several pieces of jewelry to go with the outfits. Nothing was too expensive for his woman.

He had also kept his promise to that idiot, Hojo. He had called the father into his office and explained the situation. By the time Hojo's father left the office, Kouga was sure that Hojo would not be approaching Kagome ever again.

He had also hired a private tutor for Kagome so that she could finish her education. With her running back and forth to the feudal era, her grades had slipped and Kouga was determined to get her back to where she needed to be. Kagome had agreed to being tutored and she was now ahead of the students in her school. It would take another year, but Kagome would be able to graduate and could hold her head up high. She was greatly relieved that there were no more fake illnesses that her grandpa had to come up with. When she explained to him all of the various diseases that her grandpa claimed that she had, Kouga had to wonder why no one ever checked up on her, but he was glad that they didn't.

Kagome's pregnancy was hard. The pup grew at an alarming rate, and she had panicked and claimed that there was something wrong. Thankfully, Miku had trained as a mid-wife and explained that the pup was normal and that Kagome had nothing to worry about. As the time for the birth grew closer, Kagome began to obsess over the nursery and had Miku and Suzaru help her decide on a theme. There were many days that he would come home to find two tired female wolves sitting on the floor while Kagome happily chattered away about various themes. Finally, Kagome decided on teddy bears and he shuddered. He didn't have anything against teddy bears, but it was just such a girly thing. However, his mate was determined and finally she told him that if he did not agree then she would hold out on him and that was just something he was not interested in being left out on. So, he and Inu Yasha found themselves painting the nursery a light blue and then placed a teddy bear border all around the room. Sesshomaru did not help. Well, he claimed that he was supervising and that Kagome had put him in charge to make sure that they didn't slack off, so he was actually working.

By the time the nursery was done, Kouga was sick of teddy bears. However, Sesshomaru, being a wise ass, decided that it would be funny to have his office decorated in a teddy bear theme as well and when Kouga came to the office the following week, he was assaulted by the sight of teddy bears everywhere. It was suddenly clear to Kouga that though Sesshomaru was still as cold as he could be, he had developed a sense of humor over the years. Well, when the time came and a female decided that she could put up with the 'holier-than-thou' attitude, paybacks would be a bitch. He had to wonder if Sesshomaru liked the color pink.

Shaking his head, Kouga stopped his rocking and slowly stood up. He walked over to the bassinet that stood beside their bed and he placed his son into the soft bedding. Kouga grinned when one of the little wolf ears twitched.

Kouga turned away from the pup and sat down beside Kagome. It amazed him that after all of the years that they had been apart, she was still as beautiful and loving as he remembered her.

After she got over her anger of being ripped away from him, she had calmed down quite a bit and finally accepted that though she could never make up for him being alone all those years, she could give him what he had missed in the years that were to come. Both had agreed not to bring up the past and to look towards the future, but occasionally, Kouga would allow his mind to go back to that day he had first seen her.

His original intent had been to use her to find the jewel shards for him, but after she had tamed his wolves, he came to realize that she had tamed him as well. A small human miko tamed the fierce prince of wolves. It was certainly something to marvel at.

However, he was grateful to the fates that brought her to his life. He could not imagine another day passing by without her near. She was the reason why he rushed home at night and the reason why he never failed to follow her to bed, even if it was early. It was just too much not to be near her.

After tucking his mate into the covers, Kouga moved to stand at the window. It was dark and now that both mother and pup were asleep, Kouga decided that he, too, would join them.

He quickly pulled off his clothing and slid into the bed, being careful not to wake his precious mate. He pulled her close and closed his eyes. His mind, yet again, went back to that day when he had kidnapped her and decided that she would become his mate. Though she had fought him, he finally won and now he had the family he had always dreamed of.

Finally, Kouga the prince of wolves, was at peace.
