"You had garlic in your lunch again, didn't you?"
His mate sent deadly glares in his direction.
Before he could voice a response, she snapped, "It's making me nauseous it from here, don't lie!"
"I assure you, Kagome, it was unintentional," he placated. The last thing he wanted was an angry mate; an angry and ill mate; an angry and ill while pregnant mate. "Rin insisted on sharing her Szechuan chicken. I could not refuse."
Kagome crossed her arms and huffed. "But I really wanted to jump you when you came home today, and now all I want to do is vomit!"
From where he stood in their entryway, Sesshomaru could scent her tears, pregnancy hormones and arousal wafting behind them.
"You insisted we not tell anyone until the end of your first trimester. The centuries have turned Rin into a shrewd woman. The same symptom occurred for every one of your pregnancies, she would have figured it out instantly if I refused."
He was right of course, Kagome knew that, but it didn't stop her from making demands.
"You will shower and throw all your clothes into the laundry, using all the smell-good stuff. Brush your teeth – three times! With mouthwash! – then you can make it up to me."
Her usually melodic voice turned low, rich, and heady.
With a speed he rarely used, Sesshomaru bolted up the stairs determined to accomplish his tasks as quick as possible so he could "make it up" to his mate all night long.
