Sango flew over to where Kouga told her where to go. She was looking everywhere for Sesshomaru, she finally spotted his poison whip; she had to move Kirara out of the way before she was hit. Sango could see 2 bear demons flanking Sesshomaru on all sides, and they were closing in on him. He must have caught her scent because he looked right at her as she threw her Hiraikotsu at 2 of the demons. She caught it and Kirara landed and went after one of the wounded demons. Sango threw her Hiraikotsu again at the other wounded demon, killing it as it sliced through the demon, cutting it in half.

"What are you doing here Sango?" Sesshomaru demanded as he whipped another demon with his poison whip.

"I am helping you! HIRAIKOTSU!" Sango said as she threw her weapon again around to see how many she could hit.

"I do not need your help Sango."

Sango looked at him and saw that he was wounded; there was blood on the front of his hiatori.

"Don't give me that Sesshomaru, you were hit and now you are bleeding." Sango said as she caught her weapon.

Sesshomaru got mad and took out the tokajin and in one slash of the mighty sword, the rest of the demons were gone. Kirara came back with her demon dead in her mouth.

He turned to look at her, "Sango, I needed some time to think and that was the reason for this. I had to let out some steam."

"Why Sesshomaru?"

"Because I still love you and hate it that you are marrying him and not me."

Sango looked at Kirara, "Tell everyone that we are fine. Take the bear back to the house for the banquet. We will be along soon ok?"

Kirara mewed and then left. Sango turned to Sesshomaru, "Sesshomaru, I love you but not that way and you said that you understood. Did you lie to me?"

"Yes."

Sango went to a rock and sat down. She could not believe what she was hearing. Sesshomaru came and sat down next to her.

"Sango, I am sorry for lying but I only did it because I did not want this to happen between us. I have regretted every day that you are not with me. I tried to live on and find someone to take your place but I have not. I cannot get you out of my mind. I will not stop things taking place but it still hurts to see you with him in your bedchambers instead of my own, lying next to you, making you feel secure and loved."

Sango turned to Sesshomaru, "Sesshomaru, why did you not tell me this that day I told you?"

"Because I knew in my heart that you wanted to move on without me. And I could never deny you anything that you wanted."

"Is that the reason why you offered Kouga and I land and a home on your lands? To make sure that he treats me good?"

"Yes that and to keep you close to me. I need to make sure that you are safe, my demon side still wants you for himself and suppressing him lately has been difficult. He claimed you way before I knew my feelings for you. That day that you stopped me from killing Kouga in my office, I realized that I loved you. That I wanted nothing but to have you and give you anything that you wanted because you already had my heart and love."

"Sesshomaru, will you be able to control yourself?"

"Yes, but one thing that makes me wonder a whole lot. Kouga asked me if I could help make you a full demon while we were hunting."

"What do you mean make me a full demon?"

"He wanted me to do a blood bond with you before you did with him. He told me that he would want you to live a full life like him because he could not bear to see you die later on before him. He told me that he loved you so much that he was willing to let me do this to you."

Sango sat there for a while taking in the shock of hearing him say that. She knew that he was not lying. She could smell the truth coming off of him.

"Did you answer him?"

"He told me that he knew that I would because it was for you."

"And when was this to take place?"

"Tomorrow night."

Sango started to get very mad, she was having such issues controlling herself at that time. She could feel herself losing control over her demon side. She transformed and then stormed off into the woods, she needed to hit something.

Sesshomaru just sat there and stared at her. She transformed into a Fire Cat demon right in front of him! She did not need him to become a full demon! She was already a hanyou! Sesshomaru got up and went after her, he finally caught up to her and he tried to grab her shoulder but she hit him with her weapon. He blocked the attack and she tried again, he could smell the tears starting to form in her beautiful brown eyes. He took her hands and pulled her to him, holding her tightly as she hit him. Her ears starting to twitch because she did not want him to do that to her and because she was so angry with Kouga.

"Sango I am sorry that he made those plans without talking to you. I see that you are a hanyou and do not need me. I wanted nothing but to do that for you but I knew that I would not be able to give you up after doing that to you. I was going to leave tonight before anything ever happened. I am sorry Sango."

Sango was not hitting him anymore; she just stood there in his arms. She could hear his heartbeat in her ear; she smelled the worry coming off of him. She moved and looked at him, "I am sorry Sesshomaru, and I guess that I should have told him that I was part Fire Cat demon. I just cannot believe that he would do this behind my back and so soon to the wedding!"

"I know, I told him that he should talk to you before doing anything about this but he said that it was a necessity. I did try to talk some reason into him but you know how arrogant he can be Sango."

"I know he is and once he gets something into his head it is very hard to get it out."

"Come Sango, I know that you are still angry so let's go kill some more. We could use the food for the wedding banquet anyways."

"Alright but first, let's look at your wound. I do not need you to hurt more than you need to."

"Sango you know that I am fully healed already" Sesshomaru said lying. He hoped that she did not notice that he was lying to her. He was hurt pretty bad by one of the demons earlier with large and deep gashes in his stomach.

"Sesshomaru, I know that you are full demon but still you must have gotten hit pretty bad with all that blood on your hiatori."

Sesshomaru grabbed her hands and smiled, "Sango if I thought that I was truly hurt, I would have let you take care of me, but I am fine. Now let's go and get a kill."

"Alright, I will feel better after kicking some ass."

Sesshomaru smiled and let Sango go out of his arms. They walked around some and it did not take long for a demon to find them. It was a snake demon and when they saw it coming towards them, Sesshomaru put out his hand and Sango smiled. She handed him her Hiraikotsu and she started walking to the demon. Still transformed, she extended her nails and cracked her knuckles.

The snake demon stopped and smiled, "I sssssee that I have found a tasssssty meal for my children."

Sango stopped and looked around; she could not see anymore around her. She sniffed the air and it was filled with snake scent. "I will not let you pass, you or your damn children you bitch!" Sango spat out.

Sango charged at her, slashing with her hands, letting her nails seep into the snake demons flesh; the blood spraying on her in a flood. The demon tried to move away but was unable to; Sango had her spine in her hands. They looked at each other and Sango smiled. "I told you that you were not going anywhere bitch!"

The demon had the look of horror on her face as Sango took her other hand and slashed her face, then pulling on the spine that was in her other hand. The demon's spine cracked and then shattered in Sango's hand. They fell down to the ground and Sango removed her hand from the wound. She moved to the demon's head and jumped up and stomped on the demons head, crushing the skull with no problems. She heard Sesshomaru scream in pain and she turned around to see him in the air, captured by 4 snake demons. Her weapon on the ground near his feet. She ran to him, grabbed her weapon and started slinging it around, slicing the demons into smaller pieces.

After they were all dead, she grabbed Sesshomaru and wrapped him around her back. She transformed into a Fire Cat demon more, her arms and legs remaining the same, but her body now more muscular and fast. A small tail coming out from the base of her spine, splitting in two. She started running as fast as she could, she knew that he was bitten many times in the body and needed to get him back to her house to nurse him back to health. By the time that she got back to the village, she transformed back and Kirara knew that she was near. Kirara came and grabbed Sesshomaru from her and brought both of them to her house. Sango was slumped over on her back with Sesshomaru's body over her legs.

Kagome came out of the house and saw the two on Kirara's back and shouted for help. Kouga came out and ran to her. InuYasha and Muso grabbed Sesshomaru and put him in the guest room on the bed, Kagome started working on him right away. Kikyou made Kouga put Sango in their bedchambers and then made him leave. He was worried because of all the blood that was on the two. He went to see how Sesshomaru was doing and he was getting delirious at this point. The poison running through mixing with his own in his veins. His body was burning hot as it was getting used to the snake venom and healing his own wounds at the same time. He turned his head and saw that Kagome was sitting next to him, wiping his brow; he then noticed that Kouga was there looking on. He could hear them talking but he did not know what they were saying; he looked back at Kagome, "Sango….is she alright?" Was all that his strength could let him say and then he passed out.

Kagome was wiping his forehead with a cool cloth when she noticed that he turned his head to look at her. "Sesshomaru are you feeling ok? Most of your wounds have healed but I could not get Myoga to dispel all of the venom. What happened?"

"Kagome, how is he doing? I have Kikyou looking Sango over right now." Kouga asked.

Kagome turned her head and looked at Kouga, "He is not responding well yet, but his wounds are better. I think that the venom is affecting his own poison and he is hallucinating."

"Sango…is she alright?"

Kagome turned her head and saw that was all that came out of his mouth and then he passed out. Her eyes getting large, she got up and ran out of the room, giving Kouga the wet cloth. She ran into Sango's room and went to the bedside and looked at Kikyou.

"Kikyou, was she bitten at all?"

"No thank god, but the blood had some of the venom in it and she is feverish right now. I do not know if she cut herself first and then killed the demon, but she is now experiencing a change in her because the venom is now running through her veins. Myoga said that he could not do a thing for her, he said that her demon blood should expel it."

"Does Kouga suspect anything at this point?"

"No."

"Good. Do not tell him yet. I think that this is something that she has to tell him herself."

There was a knock at the door and Kouga came in. "Sesshomaru is sitting up now. His fever is gone for the time being. He asked how Sango was, so I came to check on her."

"Tell him that she is weak but ok."

"Is that the truth?"

"Yes Kouga, that is the truth."

Kikyou moved to the Kirara and they started talking a little, she told her that Sango was going to be ok and to not worry. Kirara moved over to Kouga, she transformed and cut his arm; she quickly cut her paw and placed it over his wound. He just stood there and watched what she was doing.

"NOOOOOO! Kirara stop!" Sango yelled.

Kouga and Kirara looked at her. She put down her paw and walked over to Sango and sat on the bed.

"I am sorry mother but I thought that he should know the truth." Kirara said sadly.

"What the fuck! Since when can Kirara talk like us?" Kouga asked.

Sango looked at her hands. "Kouga come here and sit on the bed with your daughter."

"My daughter?"

Kikyou and Kagome left the room and went to assist Sesshomaru. Kouga went and sat down on the bed, Kirara went and laid her head on his lap and rested her paw on Sango's lap; she started purring as Sango pet her softly.

"Kouga, the information that I am going to tell you is going to shock you like never before. This is going to be the first time that I tell you this. Please just sit there and listen until I am finished. When I was a little girl just starting my training, my father was looking at me. None of us demon slayers ever had a companion and we had this cute two-tailed cat that roamed the village and stayed in the cave just outside the village. Father called her to him and she sat on his lap, I thought that she always looked so sad when she sat there letting him pet her. He saw that with the weapon that I chose, that I might need a companion and he knew the two tailed cats history. He had me start to take care of her and after a while, we were inseparable. My father took me aside one evening after Kohaku was sleeping, I was on the porch petting Kirara."

Flashback

"Sango, I would like for you to bond further with the two-tail." Father said.

"How would I do that father?"

Father looked at the two tails, "Have you accepted her as your new mother?"

The little two tails mewed at him. He nodded his head and turned back to his daughter.

"Sango hold out your hands and leave them there. Do not move while she is doing this, she would like to make the bond good and strong the first time."

Sango nodded at her father. She held out her hands and watched the two-tail lick her palms, transform into this large two-tailed cat. Sango's eyes got large but held firm on her position as the two-tail cut her palms with one of her large teeth. Then she noticed that the cat cut her own paws and then placed the bleeding paws over Sango's bleeding hands. Sango could feel her hands get warm, then her arms and the rest of her body. She looked at her father and he was smiling. After the two-tail removed her paws from her hands, Sango noticed that there was only a small scar on each hand.

"Father what is going on?" Sango asked.

"You have blood bonded with Kirara. Yes, her name is Kirara and now she is your daughter. You are to care for her like you have been but you are also to fight with her when she wants to assist you when slaying."

"Mother come with me, I have much to tell you about me now that you are able to understand me." Kirara said.

"How is it that I can understand you Kirara?"

"Because of the blood bond, you are able to understand my mews when I talk. Now come to your room so we are able to talk." Kirara got up and started walking into the house, she transformed back into her small form before reaching the door.

"Father should I trust this? She is a demon."

"Sango, you will understand after you speak with her."

Sango nodded and followed the two-tail to her bedchambers. Sango went to the bed and sat down net to the two-tail.

"I have much to tell you so please just listen. My old mother was Midoriko. Yes, the one that created the jewel of four souls. She found me and we fought together and we were so close to wining when she took the jewel out of her chest. She left me and told me that she was sorry but that she would always love me even though she was not going to live anymore. The cave that I have been staying in is where she is now. A living statue, I can still hear her thoughts sometimes and she felt that I should get close to your family because she found you to be the strongest slayer here. So, I got closer and closer to you and found that your fighting skills and the choice of your weapon proves Midoriko right. She told me about the blood bond that was between us and suggested that you and I do the same thing. She does not want to see either of us to get hurt, and she thought that if we bonded, that the chances are slim of us perishing. I know that this is odd but because of the blood bond between us, you are now half demon. When I transferred my blood into yours, I also transferred some of my soul into you. That is the reason why your father calls me your daughter. I will protect you with all I can in this world with my life and I do hope that you do the same for me."

Sango sat and listened to what her "daughter" told her and she smiled. She took the two-tailed cat into her arms and hugged her and cried.

"Kirara, you are the only thing besides my family that I will hold dear to my heart. We are now linked together so much that I do feel like your mother. I am so honored that Midoriko thought that I would be good enough for you because that shows me that she has great respect for what we do here. I will protect you with my life, as you will with me. I am also honored to be part demon with you."

"Sango, you bear the Fire Cat demon insignia on your forehead and you have my cat ears. Please remember that when you lose control of your feelings and emotions, you are going to transform that way. I do not know if you are going to bear the two-tails also, but I do know that when you do transform, you will keep most of your shape of your body but you will be more muscular and fast."

"Kirara, what is going to happen when one of us dies?"

"I will always be in your heart and your soul, as you will be in mine. If either of us perishes, we will either move on and choose another blood mate or stay by the grave waiting to die."

"Kirara, I never want you to die or for me to die. We are going to live forever and fight for what we feel is right. I do hope that you feel the same way."

"Sango, you are going to be the greatest mother that I have ever had, just like Midoriko was for me."

Sango smiled and set the cat down on her bed. She changed into her bedclothes and went to bed. Kirara slept draping her body over Sango's head like a hat.

Sango looked at Kouga and waited for his response to what she told him. Kirara was also waiting to see what he was going to do. Kouga looked at the cat and at his soon to be wife.

"So, this is our daughter? Because of the blood bond that you two did while you were a child?"

"Yes honey. I have had her since I was 6 years old. We bonded when I was 8."

"Then I happily accept Kirara as our first daughter then!"

Sango smiled at what he said and she jumped into his lap, falling to the floor. They were laughing when Kagome came in.

"Sango. Sesshomaru is asking for you."

"Ok. I will be right there."

"Sango, are you ever going to tell me what happened out there?"

"I will at dinner. For now, I want to make sure that Sesshomaru is ok."

"Alright, I will make sure that Kikyou, Rin, Kagura and Kagome help me in the kitchen."

Sango smiled and said thanks. She got up with him and he hugged her and gave her a kiss. She stopped at the door again and smiled at him. Sango went into the guest room and saw that he was resting against the headboard. He opened his eyes when she came in.

"Sango, I want to thank you for saving me."

"Sesshomaru why did you not tell me that you were so hurt?" Sango asked as she made her way to the chair by the bed. She sat down and waited for his answer.

He looked down at his hands and then at her, he moved one hand to her cheek and smiled. "Sango you know that I heal quicker than you. I was fine until they bit me. I was then rendered useless to you."

"Sesshomaru, you are never useless to me. You have done so much for me and you continue to. I have told Kouga the whole truth and he accepted what I am and now sees that you do not have to bond to me."

Sesshomaru looked down feeling sad, "I know that you do not want me to Sango but your life with him will be very good. I felt then as I do now Sango, I would have never done what he wanted me to do. Because I know that is something that you would not want me to do. I could not bear to deceive you that way."

"Sesshomaru you truly are an honorable man."

"Thank you Sango, I do hope that you will still live on my lands with Kouga and share your family with me until I am able to get on with mine."

"Yes Sesshomaru, I gave my word and will continue to do so. Now, are you up to having some dinner? From the smell of it, they made a great feast."

"Yes Sango I am actually rather hungry. I have not fought like that in a long time."

Sango smiled and helped him up, his strength will return after he gets some food into his stomach. Sango knew that for sure. They went and ate dinner and they told their story of how they came home bloody and delirious. Kouga was very upset that Sesshomaru told her but understood because of their bond together. He somewhat knew that after he came back and Sango left to find Sesshomaru, that he was going to tell her what Kouga requested him to do and was somewhat prepared for the fight afterwards. But when they came back all bloody from a fight with some demons, he was more worried about their lives than anything else. Sango later that night did not mention anything more about her being a hanyou because she knew that Kouga did not want to discuss it. She knew that he was already happy as a clam that he did not need Sesshomaru's assistance in that anymore. She thought that it was funny on how he wanted to see her demon form. When she transformed later in bed for him, he played with her two tails that stuck out from behind her. All she could do was laugh her head off because he knew how to tickle the fur just right.

"Sango my sweet, doesn't it hurt when your tail goes back inside you when you are not transformed?"

"No. It actually is just huge warmth on my butt and then it is gone. The only thing that is painful is when my ears go back. They itch like mad for like a whole day afterwards!"

"Kouga you do realize that after the blood bond that we are going to do at the wedding that you are going to be a Fire Wolf after that right?"

"Yeah and we are going to be stronger than ever. With the powers that you have inside you and the powers that are within me, we are going to be a pack that no one can destroy. And damn you are going to be even more gorgeous!"

Sango laughed at him and transformed back. He pouted when she did this because he thought she looked so cute the way that she was. She laughed some more and cuddled up to him and told him that it was time that they get some rest. He agreed and started to stroke her back with his hands. She looked at him and smiled as she moved her hand down his hip and around his butt. She grabbed him and pulled him closer to her. He growled at her, she looked at him and saw the lust strong behind his eyes.

"I think that we should mate Kouga. I want you now and badly." Sango said, her voice thick with lust.

"Sango, I think that you should let go of me and we should get some rest."

"Kouga, now!"

"Sango, we have many guests in our home and I think that it would not be wise."

"I don't care Kouga, I want to mate!"

"Sango you know that we shouldn't."

Sango looked at him, she could smell the resistance coming off of him like thick cologne. She pouted, let go of him and moved way to the other side of the bed. Kouga tried to spoon up next to her and she slapped him and told him to go away. Heartbroken, he moved away from her and went to the other side of the bed.

How in the hell am I going to control these urges now that he knows that I am a hanyou? I really hate acting like this but I really want to feel his hands all over me. To feel him in me and around me, I hate having to wait for him! I really just want to take him now and be done with it so we can each and every night afterwards! No! I have to control myself. He totally denied me just now. I mean I don't have that many days left to wait now. I am sure that I can keep my mind and my hands busy so they are not tempted to touch and grope his body. OOOO! I so want to right now!

Sango turned over and looked at Kouga's back. She knew that he was sleeping by the way that his breathing slowed down. She moved closer to him, wrapping an arm over his, a leg curled around one of his, pressing her body onto his. She felt him tense up and then relax when his hand found hers, wrapping it around his.

Oh, god he is so warm! I love the way that his back is so curvaceous and what a tight butt! I just love how he wrapped his tail around his waist so he does not injure it when we are laying here like this. And his legs are so strong from all the running that he has done in his lifetime.

Sango started stroking his leg up and down with her foot, feeling the muscles move with her actions, feeling his hair on his leg, it was so soft under her foot. She heard him moan and she stopped, only resting her leg slightly over his near his thigh.

God he is just such a masterpiece. I wonder if he is going to be gentle when he wraps his body over mine to mate? I wonder if he is going to be more than I can handle? OOOOO, how I want to find out right now! I mean he seemed so large when it was in my hand the other week. I wonder if it is going to hurt me or if I am going to feel nothing at all? I suppose that I should get some rest, he is right and I am happy that he resisted me tonight even though I could see it in his eyes, that it was very hard for him. Just a few more days and then he is mine for the taking.

Sango smiled as she closed her eyes. She kissed his shoulder and went to sleep. He waited for a few more minutes before turning around and putting his arm under her head drawing her nearer to him. He smiled and was thankful that he held her off. Even though as he lay there at this moment, he is very aroused and is unable to sleep. He felt her moving her foot lightly on his leg and he was going to turn over then but didn't. He did not want her to move away from him again. But he was very surprised that she was starting to lose her composure with him when they were alone. He kind of liked it and secretly hoped that it was not going to change after they mate. He kissed her forehead and went to sleep, dreaming of a time that might be in their future but not knowing for sure.
