Chapter 101

No matter how much time has passed I still don't trust this bastard. He's been holding and staring at my baby boy for at least half an hour without saying anything except that stupid humming noise he makes. At least he's not rubbing it in my face that the kid looks like him. That's something. But if he doesn't….

"He bears a crescent."

"No shit. We're brothers. Okay, well not brothers but…"

"You misunderstand. Father did not possess a crescent."

"Then why the hell does he have it? Are you saying it's not my kid?!"

"No you sired him. That much is certain."

"Okay, so what's your point?"

"Father was not of noble blood. He earned his status through power alone. This crescent is similar to my own but it differs significantly in the orientation."

"I'm not going to ask again. Why the hell does he have that mark?"

"Have you not noticed that he smells slightly different than your other children?"

"No shit, he's a boy! Of course he smells different."

"Ignorance does not suit you."

"And whose fault is it I don't know anything about inu? Could it be, oh I dunno, your fault?"

"Perhaps. This child is a full demon. That is why his scent differs."

"How the literal fuck is that possible?! Kagome is straight up human!"

"Indeed. Yet you have sired one human and now a full demon. Your blood is always at war with itself and that would explain the mark."

"How the literal fuck does that explain anything?!"

"I possess the mark of kagentsu whereas this child possess the mark of jougengetsu."

"So different moon phases. Oh that explains everything then, doesn't it?"

"There is no need for animosity. I am merely stating the obvious."

"You're not stating anything!"

"The mark differs due to your miko's influence. The child is full demon yes but also appears to possess reiki as well. The mark signifies that power. He will undoubtedly be the most powerful of your children. Perhaps even more powerful than you."

Oh god, Izayoi is going to drive me fucking crazy if that's true. She already has been acting butt hurt that it's a boy even though I told her it didn't change anything. If she finds out this brat is super powerful, all hell is going to break loose and I imagine she'll do something. The twins and the little one I'm not worried about. They keep to themselves but Izayoi might end up being the threat to this one. I couldn't stand it if they ended up hating each other. Kid hasn't even been around for more than a few days and a blood feud is already in the works. Plus there'll probably be another boy because that painting had a boy with black hair. And then what the hell am I supposed to do with a kid who is somehow balancing both demonic and spiritual energy?! Like is he going to die early because his body rejects itself or something? Is that why he was never painted?! Because he died?! What am I supposed to do now?! I'm gunna be sick.

"His blood balances himself. There is no need to fear."

"Who said I'm afraid bastard?!"

"Hn."

"Go fuck yourself Sesshomaru. I'm not afraid of shit."

Because afraid doesn't cover it. I'm fucking terrified.
