Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha; I do however own Kagome's eye colors and Sesshomaru's right arm! (Sesshomaru's right arm is mine! Saying it gives me shivers!)

Authors note: Wow you guys, thanks! I rely appreciate your criticism and spell checks! And special thanks to all you who gave me ideas! Though, I still need more… I have decided to write another fan fic only if I get 100 reviews by the end of this story! So, please send more… and please don't let the little green stop you! They might tell you some bad things about me, but none of it is true! They just don't want you to review!

Ok, lets see what our friends are doing now…

Kagome walked over to ware Sesshomaru was waiting without another look at Sango and Miroku. She knew she would never see them again. Shippo happily snuggled into his mother's arms as she walked over to Sesshomaru. He would usually be terrified of Sesshomaru, but if his mother thought he was safe to be around, so did Shippo.

The flight home was shorter than the flight their. No one said a word the whole time. Kagome may have been able to brush Sesshomaru's harsh words off, thanks to all the training Inuyasha gave her, but Sesshomaru himself couldn't. He knew he was in love with the young miko, and she was in love with him, but he couldn't allow it to be shown. He was a youkai lord; He would lose all respect if he were to let his feelings for her run wild. His lands had to come before him and his emotions… but would he let his lands come before Kagome? As he pondered on this, Kagome squealed "Look Shippo! That's Sesshomaru-sama's castle!"

The words Sesshomaru-sama hit him hard. He didn't want her to address him like he was superior… he wanted her to address him with a more loving manor… but it was better that she didn't. Her saying this meant she truly knew it could never work between them. He didn't like the feeling, but he ignored them as he descended into his garden. The moment they landed, a bouncing little ball of energy attached itself to Kagome's leg. "YOU LEFT MEEEEEEE!" Howled a distraught Rin. Kagome knew how to take care of this.

Kagome set Shippo on the ground next to Rin and Rin quickly quieted down and stared at Shippo. Her eyes narrowed in a menacing way, then she said slowly, "You wanna play tag?" Shippo smiled at this and took off running. Rin lost all of her malice and ran after Shippo, laughing nonetheless. Kagome smiled at her own cleverness, and then turned to Sesshomaru, who had let some amusement seep through his cold mask. She smiled at him and said with a hint of weariness "Rin should be good and tired tonight. Shippo too." Kagome inclined her head to Sesshomaru, and then walked off after her children. Sesshomaru hated himself. He hated the royals, He hated his position as ruler of the western lands and, he hated Kagome for making him have all of these different and tiresome bloody emotions! No, wait. He didn't hate Kagome. He loved her, and loved her dearly! No matter how many times he tolled himself otherwise, he couldn't convince his heart... and it didn't take him long to discover he never would be able too.

Kagome went inside after a long day of chasing Rin and Shippo. The sun was about a halve hour away from setting, and that meant it was time for bed for the little ones. Kagome carried Rin to her room, and then with Shippo sleeping in her arms, walked to her own room. This was Shippo's first night in the castle, so he would spend it with her, to make it more comfortable for him.

As she walked down the hall, she saw lord Kaemon walking toward her with a smile. Lord Kaemon made Kagome nervous… the way he looked at her was almost enough to make her run. She swallowed her fear and returned his smile. He made no comment to her about Shippo, but simply walked passed her. But, as Kagome walked on, she could feel his eyes on the back of her head. Being a priestess made her senses sharper and she knew he was watching her walk down the hall. She suddenly became conscious to the fact that her kimono was a little short…

She finally reached her room! She looked down into her arms, and saw a little fox kit wide-awake and bright eyed! He smiled at her, and then leaped out of her arms. "Is this your room mamma? I like it! I wanna sleep in hear too please, please, please!" He howled at her "Of course my darling! I wouldn't have it any other way!" She said. "There are some hot springs connected to this room if you wanna take a look." Shippo ran across the room and diapered into the room that held the hot spring, and closed the door behind him. Kagome slipped into a sleeping kimono, blew out all the candles in her room but one, and sprawled out on her bed. Shippo would climb in when he was done looking at the springs. (He had never seen an indoor one.) She moaned gently and turned to face the window that faced opposite the door.

Kagome was in a light sleep, so she had no idea she was being watched. Lord Kaemon watched Kagome through a crack in her door. "Her sleeping kimono is wonderfully reviling!" He thought to himself. "Sesshomaru does not care for humans, so he wont have any problems with me having a little fun with her before my departure. It might even be enjoyable for her…" The lord let himself into her room. He gently laid the shirt of his kimono on a nearby chair.

Kagome was now in deep sleep, and was not dreaming anything at all. In an instant, the youkai lord was upon her. Kagome snapped out of her sleep to find Lord Kaemon trying to rip off her sleeping kimono. She brought her knee to his face in an attempt to force him off her. "GET THE FUCK OF ME YOU PERVERTED, DEPRAVED DEM-" He placed his hand over her mouth to silence her. The knee trick hadn't had any affect what so ever on him. They were so caught up in what was happening, that they didn't notice little Shippo had come out of the spring room.

He took one look at what was happening to this mother, and then he slipped out of the room unnoticed by the demon lord and his mother. He had to get help! He couldn't vary well do this alone! He sped down the hall, and came to a halt outside a large door with a great dog demon on the door… Sesshomaru's room! Shippo had no ware else to turn! The fox kit burst through the door, and came face to face with Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru lifted an eyebrow at the fox kit from his desk, asking what this intrusion was about. Shippo's lower lip trembled slightly. Then he howled "MY MOMMA! BAD DEMON MAN!" Well, lets just say Sesshomaru didn't need telling twice! Before the fox finished his sentence, Sesshomaru was out the door and down the hall!

He slammed open the door (Yes! It magically closed! Do I have to explain everything to you little green people!) And was shocked by the scene. Kagome managed to keep the demon lord from taking her, but just barely! The lord was on top of Kagome… his Kagome! And was trying to tie down her hands! Sesshomaru was on him so quick that not even a demon could have blinked an eye! He took the lord by the scruff of the neck, and tossed him out of a continently placed open window. After throwing him, Sesshomaru leaped out after him, and destroyed him soundlessly, so as to not wake the other lords or ladies. After about two seconds, lord Kaemon was just rust on Sesshomaru's sword. Sesshomaru used demon magic to clean up the mess the bastard left on his grass. He didn't need the other lords to know his dark deed.

Now that that was done, he had more pressing matters. He leaped through the window into Kagome's room. The poor miko was extremely embarrassed her scent told him. She was sobbing while pulling on another kimono. She was horribly bruised and hurt. Sesshomaru lifted her into his arms and sat on her bed. There, she completely let herself go. She once again let her grief and sorrow out on his shoulder in the form of tears. Sesshomaru was so distraught over this. "If only I had let them know… let the whole world know how much I love her… then she wouldn't have hade to go through all this hell… its all my fault! I have to make it right!" He told himself angrily. He noticed her sobbing had stopped. He laid her on the bed, thinking she had fallen asleep, but her eyes were wide open. He leaned toward her. He prayed she would accept it… it was all he could give her right now… she accepted!

Sesshomaru kissed Kagome with passion on his lips. He licked his lips, begging for entrance, and she opened her mouth gently, and even deepened the kiss. He made absolutely sure none of her mouth was left unexplored, and she took the same precautions with him. Without realizing it, he had straddled her. He deepened the kiss even more. Her kiss now held a hunger. Finally, they had to come up for air. Sesshomaru looked at her, his eyes ablaze with passion. She looked like a goddess; bathed in moonlight, hair spread around her shoulders… he did love her, now more than ever! He had to tell her!

"Kagome," He said getting in a sitting position. "Do you love me?" The hunger left her eyes and was replaced with a gentler, softer look. She climbed into his lap and snuggled into his chest. "Yes, more than life itself." She said tenderly. He fingered her hair and whispered, "Good, I just wanted to make sure I wasn't the only one." They both closed their eyes, savoring this moment. "You had better get some rest, you have to keep up with two little ones tomorrow." He said after about fifteen minuets holding her. She smiled brightly. This melted his heart in a whole new way. She was happy, so he was happy.

He stepped out of the room, leaving a happy Kagome in his wake. He walked up to his room; witch now had a sleeping fox kit at its door. He stepped over the fox kit, and then shut the door just loud enough to wake the child. Sesshomaru listed to the little fox scurry down the hall and into his mother's room.

Their was no way Sesshomaru would be getting any work done, so he went to bed. Kagome and Shippo were both soon asleep as well. When they woke, Shippo asked questions about the strange events that happened the previous night. Kagome told him he was only dreaming. He was too young to know of things such as rape. She went about her day as usual, she kept an eye on her children, made sure they were feed and rested. She let the children run about the garden for a while. Kagome was resting on a bench next to a bush. She thought of Sesshomaru. About their passionate kiss, about their unsure future… and about the pair of light brown eyes that were gazing at her from the nearby hedge…
