Author note: ok guys I know a lot of you are probably ready to kill me for leaving this fanfic. Its been at the back of mind for a long time. I've been out of the country and somewhere I was without Wi-Fi and working almost 24 hours a day so I hope you can understand plus I just got to a point that I wasn't stuck but couldn't bring myself to type anything out. This chap is the only one I've got at the moment and it has been an on going thing that I have done since being away. (one chap in all that time you can tell much I didn't want to type) anyways I'm back now but I must say chaps might be shorter so I can type the in the time I have spare if I have time ill post more than one or longer chaps, but at moment they will be shorter so that I can hopeful keep posting.

BIG sorry again will try not to disappear again I have lots of ideas just need to connect them together. I'm DESPRATE for a beta my spelling is bad bit I cant tell most of the time. I'm going through my old chapters fixing them up. Even if you don't want to be my beta but know someone who would or know somewhere I can ask about one let me know I'm still newish to this.

Ok so here after a very long wait is chapter 20

And nope I don't own Inuyasha L

Chapter 20 Demon Lord

Kagome almost gasped when she saw the powerful demon lord sat in Rikos hut. Even with him in a sitting position, his presence was intimidating and powerful. It made a number of emotions rush to the surface. Lust being her first and primal instinct, he was powerful and an inu, everything her beast called for in a mate. He would be strong and give her a second littler of strong pups. He would also be able to protect and provide for their pack. Pulling back thoughts of instantly jumping the male, she felt panic and anger take hold. This male was a threat to her pups. Males usually would attack females and cause them to lose the offspring. The sooner she lost the pups the sooner the female would go into her next heat cycle and replace the pups with his own.

But as she took in the demon lord she felt sadness wash over her. She could see Inuyasha in him, even seeing a glance of Sesshomaru made her heart ache with home sickness. He looked younger than when she had seen him before. His golden eyes looked younger and less haunted by mistakes in life. He wore his spiked armor and white and blue haori with a red kosode. His skin was a surprise it was tan even more so than Inuyasha. She guessed Inuyasha and Sesshomaru got their pale skin from their mothers. Both of his sons had inherited almost an exact copy of his silver white hair. Thought Sesshomaru would be a closer match in style. Inuyashas hair had always been wild and untamed, so it was unsurprising Sesshomarus looked a lot more like his sires. If only Inuyasha had let her brush his tangled mane she was sure she could at least get it to look slightly more presentable.

Kagome was pulled out of her analysis of the demon lord by Shipo who jumped into her arms and asked her a question. Still too distracted by the males inus presence she missed what Shipo had asked "I said where have you been I was worried and why do you smell different?" Kagome gave her little fox a heart warming smile and replied" I was out looking for Kilala. I believe I found her but I was unable to retrieve her" At Shippos pouting face she tapped his nose" but don't worry I have a plan" at that Kagome received a bright smile. Turning her attention from Shippo she remembered the inu lord."*** I am Kagome inu female of this village what is it you needed of me my lord" Kagome chose not to bow or even lower her eyes. 'This village is under my protection I refuse to show weakness it could risk many lives'

Touga's beast was growling loudly in his head, appreciating the fire in the females eyes 'bitch strong must show who alpha'. Touga almost rolled his eyes inus apparently couldn't purr to show appreciation but his beast was making a fairly accurate representation. But he too couldn't help but imagine showing the little female who was alpha, whist having her scream his name in ecstasy. Touga cloud feel his baggy hakama tightening. Clearing his thoughts he said" please call me Touga"

Kagomes serious face didn't change as she continued to watch Touga waiting for him to continue. She watched him rub the back of his head and smile. Kagomes only response was to raise an eyebrow, it was something she couldn't help but copy off Sesshomaru. She had seen him do it a few time and always wanted to mimic it but never had the opportunity.

Realizing his less and lord like reaction he shook himself and stood strait showing the little female his full height. Kagome who couldn't smile he was clearly trying to show off and all she could think of was he looked very similar to a superhero posing on the front of a comic. At the thought, she had to refrain from giggling and relaxed a little and crossed her arms over her chest.

"I'm sorry to interrupt your after noon My lady but I heard their was a inu female living in this village and chose to take it upon myself to see to your safety." Kagome couldn't help but blush at the male "surely you do not personally see to it that every female is safe. If you do you must be extremely busy?" Kagome was a little puzzled as to why he would come to see her. Suddenly a thought struck her' perhaps he knows of me carrying the pups of Ryukotsusei and has come to kill us!'

When Touga saw Kagome pale he decided to question her surly she knew how rare a female inu was?

"My lady I don think you realize how rear a species you are" looking at Kagomes tilted head and questioning gaze. His eyes widened surly this female must have know how rare inu females were. She was sure to have had made attempted suitors whilst growing up. Her family would have protected her but must have encouraged finding a mate?

At the unruliness silence in the hut Shippo tugged on his mothers hair and requested to be let outside to play. Blinking a few times Kagome was pulled from the I thence stare she was sharing with the male on the opposite side of the hut. Smiling down at Shippo she replied "of course, but be back before sundown for supper" the little kit bounced out of her arms and gave a simple reply of "yes mama"

Kagomes eyes trailed after her pup making sure he left. As soon as his aura was far enough away she turned back to the male. She almost jumped in fright when she was met face to chest with the young demon lord. He had somehow managed to sneak across the room and stand right behind her. Annoyed with herself for not paying attention she took a step back. But as she moved so did he. Narrowing her eyes she replied to his earlier question " I have no knowledge as to the population in inuyoukia female or not" at his shocked expression she continued "I grew up in a isolated village very far from here it takes a great deal of time to make the journey. There are no inu females or males remaining in my family, I am the only one left of my pack"

Strangely Touga wasn't displeased to hear she had no other family, it would me he could welcome her into his pack with no strings attached. Well apart form the pups she was caring and the little kitsune that had just excited the hut. They were of no consequence as they would follow their mother wherever she went. E would welcome to his pack because as he had thought earlier they could prove useful. He also believed harming the young or sick was something only a low level demon would stoop to.

Deciding to enlighten the female he had moved closer to her. He wished to be close to her for a number of reasons. Even if is was caring another males sent her natural fragrance was mouth watering. Standing so close he could bathe in her sent whilst she could be accustomed to his. The close proximity also meant if at any point she were try to flee there would be nothing to prevent instant pursuit. Finally he simply wanted to make her jump and possible smell her arousal at the close proximity. " inu female are incredibly rare unmated are even rarer. With you at present the total of available females is two. So you can see why I wish to offer you my protection." Kagome gave him skeptical looks she was not stupid and could tell he didn't mealy have protection planned out for her. Touga completely missing her distrustful look kept rambling on " you would be given a position in my pack as well as your offspring. My protection would include them as long as when they were old enough they were to train so they in return can protect the pack" deciding to tyr and woo the female before him he gave a dazzling smile and started to evaluate his claws like he was talking about something as important as someone joining his pack. he stretched a arm so he was leaning on the door frame, imposing his form even further over Kagome. His whole posture emanated a cocky confidence. She would have laugh at had she not be on the receiving end of such irritating behavior. "my place is very large and has plenty of space to have lots of pups running around" by this point Kagome was tempted to roll her eyes. As soon as her started twisting a lock of her hair around his finger her eyes were ablaze. A evil smirk crossed her face but she quickly covered it. Slowly she raised her hand to caress along his jaw and up to rub his pointed ears.

Touga was in complete shock his golden eyes were wide looking questionably at Kagome who was peering up at him through her eyelashes with flirtatious smile. Slowly and steadily his eyes began to close and he gave off a contented growl. Kagomes smile turned evil as his eyes closed and began to back him carful towards the large tub of cold water they used for washing pots and jars. As soon as Tougas heels hit the edge of the tub he fell back into the freezing dirty water. It took a moment for it to register in his mind what had just occurred. He had been enjoying the treatment of a female other than Inukami when in a flurry of movement her had ended on his backside in freezing water with his hair a complete disarray covering most of his face. ' how dare that female humiliate me just when I thought she was warming to me' ' take her make bitch submit' was his beasts gruff growling reply. Touga was about to extract himself from the tub and give the female a lesson in submitting when he heard one of the most beautiful noises he had ever heard. Tinkling laughter filled the hut, peering through his sodden sliver locks he saw the raven haired woman bent in half almost sobbing in uncontrollable laughter. For some strange reason his chest seem to glow with warmth at the sight. Slowly pulling himself from the water and straitening his attire and hair to the best of his ability he gave a slight cough.

Kagome froze in place it wasn't until he was standing again did she remember he was a very powerful demon lord. Slowly she raised her eyes from the floor up to his face she had to bite her lip to stifle the laugh the attempted to escape her lips. His feathers were a perfect stoic impressing of his eldest son.

All he said was

"I always knew my mate would have bite as well as bark"

OK so there is the long awaited chap, sorry if it was a little disappointing. We haven't left the hut yet which i find a little comical. I'm sorry it took so long to post i can't guarantee i will update soon but if you review follow favourite and what ever else you can do ill try to update soon. and as i said I'm desperate to get a beta my spelling and punctuation is one thing that holds me back i don't want to give you something you feel dissatisfied with so it would be a super help.
