Kagome dragged Koulas about half-way to the gardens before he could gain his senses.
He stopped in his tracks making Kagome look at him.
"What?" she asked.
"Where are we going? And who are these two people you were saying you couldn't leave?"
Kagome grinned.
"Oh. That. Well, I'm going to introduce you to my pups."
Koulas' jaw dropped.
"Pups?!" he sputtered.
"Yes! Pups. Now come on!" she said and started dragging him with her. She gestured for him to keep quiet when they reached the garden.
Shippo was racing along followed by Rin. Apparently, they were playing tag.and Shippo was cheating.
She kept quiet, hoping that Shippo wouldn't notice her, and tripped him. He started tumbling and Rin caught him but she fell too.
"Aw Mom!" Shippo whined. "And I was winning too!"
Rin jumped up and ran to Kagome who scooped her up. Shippo did the same and was also scooped up.
She gave them each a lick on the cheek making them squirm and giggle.
"Okaa-san!!" Rin squealed and wiggled until she got loose while Shippo did the same.
"Shippo, Rin. I'd like you to meet my father, the Lord of the Eastern Lands, Koulas."
"If he's your otou-san, Kagome-okaa-san, that makes him our oji-chan, right?" Rin asked.
Kagome nodded.
"Nice to meet you Oji-chan!" she squealed, making Koulas smile. He, unlike the other demon lords, didn't actually seek out humans to kill.
"Dad, this is Shippo and Rin," Kagome said and then gestured for the two kids to go and play.
"A human and kitsune. Why would you claim them?"
"Because I love them. They are truly like pups to me now. And Shesshoumaru claimed Rin before I did."
"Impossible. The guy hates the stench of mortals."
"Don't we all? Besides, Rin doesn't smell."
"So.you like Shesshoumaru huh?"
"DAD!!!"
"Alright, alright. Shessh! I was just kidding!"
"You talk too modern for you not to have lived in the future. Why didn't you come see me before?"
"I did. When you were still small.just before Souta was born actually."
"Is Souta really my brother?"
"Ehehe.yes. I married your mother when I went through the well the first time. I travelled back and forth for a few years but for some reason, I couldn't go back after your brother was born."
"Yeah, that I can understand. But why don't I remember you?!"
"You're saying you don't remember me?"
Koulas smiled and closed his eyes. His hair grew shorter and his markings all disappeared. When he opened his eyes, Kagome was surprised to see that he looked very different.
"I guess red hair, marks, claws and fangs can do that to a guy.' she thought.
"Do I look familiar now?" the human version of Koulas asked her. Kagome smiled at him and nodded.
"Now you look familiar dad!" she said. She started to remember his face when she was around 6 or 7. "You even used to take me to the park!"
They talked for a while and then made their way back inside. After, of course, Koulas changed back into the proud and mighty, although somewhat silly, Lord of the Eastern Lands.
"Hey dad?" Kagome asked while they walked to the dining room.
"What?"
"Are we related to Shesshoumaru?"
"No, not very closely. But all inu-youkai are related to each other somehow."
"What do you mean?"
"Take your mother for example. As it turns out, she's my sister's brother- in-law's niece's sister's cousin. Or something like that."
"O~kay."
They stopped before a big wooden door which had a youkai servant girl standing in fornt of it. She bowed to both of them in respect.
"Milord and Milady. I have been waiting for your arrival," she said.
Kagome smiled at her.
"Hi! I'm Kagome. Who are you?" Kagome asked. The servant was about to answer but Koulas cut her off.
"This is Toki. She was my sister's servant before she became my assistant," he said, making Toki look at him in horror. She had heard the use of the past tense.
"Milord! What have I done to earn such displeasure?!" Toki asked.
"Nothing but excellence, Toki, and yet.I know that you yearn for your old duties. Which is why I now give you to my daughter, Kagome."
"Dad! You can't do that!"
"Why not?"
"Cause she has to want to stay with me. I'll only take her if she wants to stay with me instead."
"Which do you prefer Toki?"
"I am honored that you would trust me with a child of yours, Milord," Toki said and bowed again.
"Great! I have a new friend!" Kagome said excitedly. "You can eat with us Toki!"
Kagome opened the door and walked inside. The two other lords were seated at the table along with 2 female youkai that appeared to be their mates.
Shesshoumaru was seated at the head of the table, as always, with Rin to his left, and an empty seat for Kagome at his right. Shippo was in the middle of three empty seats.two to his left, one to his right, for Toki, Koulas, and Kagome.
Shesshoumaru stood up when Kagome walked into the room with a big smile on her face.
"You are late," he said, making her frown. At least until she saw that he was only teasing.
'Oh so THAT'S how you want to play,' Kagome thought and sat down I her chair beside Shippo. Toki and her dad sat beside each other to his left.
"So sorry, Sess. We got a little side-tracked on the way," Kagome explained, making sure to use the most unembarrassing nickname for him. He nodded and sat down in his seat.
Kail snorted at the nickname anyway.
"You would allow her to address you so casually, Shesshoumaru? You are growing soft!" he teased.
"She may do as she wished," Shesshou replied, waving away the insult. Food began floating in and was set before them. Their wine glasses were filled, except for the children's, and Koulas stood up.
"Before we formally begin partaking of this marvellous feast," he said and gestured for Kagome to stand. When she was standing, he continued with his formal speech. "I would like to take this opportunity to introduce to you all my heir and daughter, Lady Kagome."
Cyro and Kail, as well as their mates were shocked. The Eastern Lands was the richest of the four and Koulas had refused to take a mate for as long as they could remember. And now this?!
"Have you proof of this claim Kolas?" Cyro asked, growling.
At this, Kagome parted her bangs to reveal her mark, the crescent moon with a star painfully obvious to whoever cared to look.
"But you have no mate so she is a bastard," Cyro's mate spat.
Kagome glared at her. She had hair a dark shade of yellow and a red line on her forehead. Pale red triangles rested on her cheekbones and a pinkish scar on her neck.
Shesshoumaru resisted the urge to slit her throat for saying that about his Kagome.
'How dare she say such a thing about my chosen mate?!' he thought and rose from his seat, his eyes and markings flashing a deep crimson.
Kagome saw his anger and put a hand on his arm, catching his attention. She gave him a look and he tried to calm down, sitting back down in his chair.
She turned back to face Cyro's mate who claimed her to be a bastard.
"She is no bastard. The reason that I resisted all of your efforts to have me mated was because I was already had a mate," Koulas stated.
"You can not prove that!" Cyro's mate ground out while Koulas chuckled.
"Don't be so sure Mirai!" he said and pulled the kimono he was wearing away from his neck. A pink scar showed on his shoulder. "I have a mate, a daughter and a son. I name that son, called Souta, the next in line to Kagome. Should Kagome be mated to another Lord, I give the tittle of heir to Souta."
Kagome was getting tired of all this. Tired and hungry.
"Accept it so we can eat already!" she exclaimed, shocking those who didn't know her all that well.
"Sit down Kagome. You may eat," Shesshou told her. She huffed and plopped down into her chair, crossing her arms. "I don't need permission to eat, Shesshie."
"Your stomach's growl were starting to bother me," Shesshou retorted, surprising all the other lords again. He wasn't known to respond to anyone like that.
"Koulas, we accept your statement and your daughter. Although, we would like to see you mate and son, we accept you daughter," Cyro said. Koulas smiled and Kail grinned at him.
"We also accept that your daughter is hungry!" Kail said, making Koulas laugh and sit down.
"Let us eat," Shesshoumaru said.
Kagome reached for a large piece of meat and put it on her plate, starting to slice it into small pieces with her claws. She put it on Shippo's plate and noticed that Shesshoumaru was doing the same for Rin. Not only that, the other lords noticed too.
When Shesshoumaru's eyes met hers she saw something else aside from the teasing, the amusement and even the laughter. It was warm and caring. Sort of like the feeling you got when you knew that you were safe with that person.
Her eyes widened when she realised what the look was. It was love. Kagome sighed inwardly and turned back to her food.
'So he's learned to love Rin.I wish he could love me too.Wait! Kagome, what the hell are you thinking?!'
Shesshoumaru's lips twitched as he watched the expressions flit across Kagome's face. Resignation, wishfullness(in other words.an emotion he didn't recognise!), shock, and anger. What she had to be angry about, he had no idea!
After dinner.
Cyro and Kail along with their mates said their goodbyes to their host.
Cyro nodded to Shesshoumaru and he changed into his true form.a big wolf which charged away into the forest. Mirai bowed before going after her mate, not bothering to change into her true form.
In a corridor.
"Mommy!"
Kagome turned around to see Shippo about to ram straight into her. She automatically spread her arms and caught him when he jumped up. She almost lost her balance and was trying to get it back when something knocked her over backwards.
"Oof!" she exclaimed and looked down at her legs to see what had knocked her down, although she had a pretty good idea. "Rin!"
"Whoops." she said and she and Shippo both got up so Kagome could stand.
Kail's mate, who had orange hair and a blue line going up from each of her eyebrows, walked over to Kagome who was now holding both Shippo and Rin in her arms.
"Hello, Lady Kagome. My name is Kira. I was wondering what such a young kit would be doing away from his parents. I was hoping that you would be kind enough to tell me.?"
"I claim him and this girl."
"I see. It's not everyday, after all, that a youkai would claim a kitsune and ningen as it's own. Well, I hope that we can be friends, Lady Kagome."
"Kagome, please." Kira nodded, accepting the gesture of friendship offered.
"Kagome. I hope to see you soon. Perhaps Shesshoumaru shall take you to the annual youkai ball next month? That is, if he won't be too busy keeping his hands off of you." Kagome blushed at her comment, making Kira laugh. "How long have you been a demon?"
Kagome looked at her, stunned. "How did you know?"
"That you weren't born youkai? You didn't sense things as clearly as the rest of us and your ears didn't even twitch when a loud noise was made near you earlier. A normal youkai with his senses open, as they should have been, would have heard their ears ringing for a while. My only explanation for that is that you weren't used to your senses and had shut them down to prevent harm to those near you and also because you felt safe here. So, since I have most likely figured it out by myself.you must not hesitate to tell me."
"I only turned into a full youkai yesterday when my soul was completed."
"You mother was probably a youkai with miko powers correct?"
"Yes. But I was born a ningen and so was my brother. And my mother appears to be human. A spell was put on her by her adoptive family."
"Ah, yes. The concealment spell. It was the very first spell I had to learn to protect myself. It affects the offspring if not taken off when the offspring are born until their 18th year or if they are in mortal danger of dying. I take it that you were at death's door?"
"I really don't know. And you say that you know the spell? how? I thought only miko's could." Kagome trailed off when she got a look from Kira. "Ooh.I get it. so you're a youkai miko too!"
While they were talking, they made their way outside. They had no problems talking in front of the pups as they weren't listening anyway. They were playing with Shippo's illusion leaf. Rather, Rin was playing with his leaf while Shippo looked on in horror.
As soon as they reached the gardens and Rin saw her adoptive father, Shesshoumaru, she wiggled free from Kagome, running towards him with Shippo right behind her.
"Shesshoumaru has laid claim to the girl as well, yes?" Kira asked when she saw Rin latch onto Shesshoumaru's legs and him patting her on the head. Shippo just stayed at a distance until Rin tagged him and ran off.
~X~
"So, Shesshoumaru.don't take too long before laying our claim or else she might be taken away from you," Kail said, trying to tease and warn his close friend at the same time.
"This Shesshoumaru knows not of which you speak."
"Ok, fine. But you were being a little too obvious."
"."
"Oh come on! Even Koulas knew that you liked her and that's why he made that silly thing with his heir. Everybody know that you're the only lord that's not mated anymore after that little 'revelation' he made!" Kail exclaimed. He sighed when he didn't get an answer and called for his mate, Kira.
~X~
"Ara, I must go, Kagome-chan. Don't forget to ask Shesshou-kun to take you to the ball. Tell him if he doesn't then you will shout his worst nickname ever to the entire world!" Kira said, giggling. "I will see you there, Kagome-chan. In the meantime, take good care of your kit. He will need you more now that he is growing up." She bowed to Kagome, who giggled while bowing in return. She made her way over to where her mate was waiting and bowed to her gracious host, Shesshoumaru.
"Thank you, Lord Shesshoumaru for having us over at your castle."
"Bye!" Kail said and both him and Kira transformed into something with wings and took off for their own lands.
Kagome turned to Shesshoumaru.
"Sess, can you please take me to the well in Inuyasha's forest?"
"No."
"But."
"No buts. You can not go until you have mastered all of your new technique's and powers," he said and walked away, heading for his study.
"FLUFFY!!!!" Kagome screamed.
