(A/N) Thank you to everyone who reviewed, this is my first story and I'm glad you like it so far.
Normal POV
"That was close." Koga said as they reached the den. Kiame jumped off Koga's shoulder and they started walking into the den. As they were walking to the healers' den, Ginta and Hakkaku saw them.
"Hey Koga's back, wow, you found Kiame as well. That's amazing; you weren't even gone for that long. Isn't that right Hakkaku?" Ginta said as he and Hakkaku started walking with Koga.
"Yeah that's right Ginta." Replied Hakkaku.
"Koga, is that a white wolf that you're holding?' Hakkaku asked Koga.
"I suppose you could say that" Koga carefully replied.
"Koga said she was a white wolf demon" Kiame said before Koga could stop her.
"Is that true Koga?" asked Ginta.
"Yes, it's true. And no, I'm not gonna try to get her power for myself." Replied Koga as he started walking faster toward the healer's home.
"But why not Koga? If you had her power then you'd be able to kill Naruku easily." Hakkaku said while he caught up with Koga. Koga stopped walking and looked back at the two of them with a look that could kill.
"I will not manipulate her or take her power in any way because she saved Kiame and got seriously injured in the process. Now go away while I take her to the healers' den." Koga growled impatiently as he started walking to the healers again. Ginta and Hakkaku stood there speechless as they watched Koga and Kiame head to the healers.
Soon after Koga and Kiame got to the healers den. Koga softly said to Kiame "Kiame, I need you to wait outside while I take this wolf to the healers, okay." The only reply he got from Kiame was a slight nod of her head.
"I'll be back soon then Kiame." Koga said as he entered the healers' home.
"Healer Michiko, I need your help." Koga said as he went inside and laid the white wolf down on the bed.
"Koga my dear, I can tell that you care deeply for this wolf, but I heal wolf-demons, not wolfs." Healer Michiko said. Koga was about to tell the healer that she was a demon when the white wolf turned into a white wolf-demon.
"Now I see what you mean. I suggest that you go to your room and rest while I take care of her. I shall also send a drink over soon that shall make you rest easy. I shall call for you when she wakes up." Healer Michiko said after she saw the transformation.
"I think I will, thank you Healer Michiko, but you are going to do one more thing for me. You are going to make sure no one other than me comes in this room, understand?" Koga told the healer as he stood in the entranceway.
"You know you can trust me Koga." Healer Michiko said as she encouraged him out the entranceway and the pelt that covers the entranceway falls back into place.
Koga's POV
"Koga! Koga! Will she be fine, is she awake yet, when can I see her?" Kiame came running up to him asking lots of questions.
"Kiame, slow down for a minute. She'll be fine and Healer Michiko will call for us when she wakes up, okay?" he said before he started walking away. Kiame just gave a slight nod and followed him to the main cave.
Inuyasha's POV
"We're leaving, now." he said as he walking into the clearing where his pack was resting.
"Why so soon Inuyasha? Have you found Kagome?" Miroku asked as he helped Sango and Shippo pack up their equipment.
"No I haven't found Kagome and who cares about that wench at the moment, what I want is at that stupid mangy wolf's den, and that's where we're heading." he said as Sango and Shippo jumped onto a transformed Kirara who started flying above a running Inuyasha and Miroku. Sango and Miroku exchanged looks with each other, knowing that it was best not to question Inuyasha and to just go along with it.
Kagome's POV
'My wounds are as far healed as they can be in this state. It's time for me to meet the healer whose assisted me.' she thought as she opened her eyes.
"You are awake sooner than I expected. What is your name dear girl?" asks the Ookami demon from the other side of the den.
"It's true that I have a faster recovery speed then most, but it's also true that it's considered rude to ask someone their name before telling your own name first." she said to the demon now facing her from across the den.
"Of course my dear, how rude of me. I am Michiko, a main healer of this wolf tribe." Said the demon now know as Healer Michiko.
"My name, is of no great importance to anyone at the moment, but you may call me Lady Kimi, for that is one of the many names I was once called." she said as she started to stand up. Healer Michiko rushed to her side before she could stand up fully.
"Lady Kimi you mustn't move that much in your condition, your injuries are still healing." Healer Michiko said as she tried to get her to lie back down.
"I will not lie back down as my injuries are almost fully healed." she said as she took off the bandage on her leg to show a small scar where a huge gash had previously been. Healer Michiko just watched with awe as she took off the remainder of her bandages to also show only small scars.
"Might you be the one who brought me to this den as well?" she asked Healer Michiko who was still staring at the scars which were getting smaller by the second.
"I am not the one who brought you here, but I shall go get the one who did. Your clothes are by the bed, so you can get changed while I go get him." Healer Michiko said as she went to the alpha's den to get Kouga.
"It seems like my marks have only a day or two before I must reveal them, but the Inu group should be arriving soon. That is when I shall reveal them."she said as she started to get dressed.
Koga's POV
'Koga, Koga wake up.' he suddenly woke up and looked around his room. Through no one was in his room he heard the voice again.
'You will not find me in your room no matter how hard you look, as I am communicating to you through thought. Now I need you to listen closely as I will not repeat myself. The wolf-demon you have brought here is awake and is talking to the healer and the one she was told brought her here. If you do not believe this is true then go to the room that she is in, but do not enter. Wait outside and listen to their conversation, I believe that you will find it in the least, a very interesting conversation. You will know when you must go in.'
"Well that was strange, but I guess I better go check it out." Koga said to himself before running off to the healers' home.
Kagome's POV
"So is he the one who brought me here?" she asks as she watched Healer Michiko and another wolf-demon walk into the room
"Yes this is my son Yukio, he is the one who brought you here." Healer Michiko said as they both stood in front of her. 'It seems as if Koga is outside the door. I think that now would be a good time to see how truthful this pair is.' she thought as she sensed Koga outside.
"So you say that Yukio here is the one who brought me to this den." she said to the pair, wondering who would reply.
"Yes, I was the one who brought you here and because of that, you shall be my mate." Yukio said forcefully while taking a step closer to her.
"My aren't we forceful today, but I don't believe I can accept that." she said with a forced smile on her face.
"Come to think of it, what does your mother think of this?" she asks with fake curiosity "Does she agree with your opinion?"
"Of course I agree with him. He has brought you here and I have healed you, why shouldn't you become his mate? Anyway you have no choice in the matter since only male wolf-demons can choose their mate, not females. The only way for you to not become his mate would be if Koga was here to fight for you. But I don't think that's going to happen since Koga's not even going to wake up for a while." Healer Michiko said with a look of accomplishment on her face.
"Is that why you're so sure of yourself, because you think that Koga's still asleep? So that's what you put his drink before you sent it to him." she said while inspecting her nails before looking up with the same forced smile smile.
"So you think that Koga's awake and that he's going to save you? Don't make me laugh! That potion makes it so that the person doesn't wake for a whole day, did I mention that there's no way for him to wake up before then?" Healer Michiko sneers as they cornered her at the back of the room.
"That is where you are wrong, Healer Michiko. For a demon called Yukiko has already woken Koga and he is listening to this conversation as we speak. I think it is time you make yourself known, Koga." she said, knowing very well that Koga was outside of the den's entrance. Healer Michiko and Yukio just stood in front of her, not believing a word she said.
Normal POV
Koga walked into the room and just stood there, facing the three demons.
"About time you joined us Koga." Lady Kimi said with a smile while looking at Koga.
"She's right you know, I've been listening to almost your whole conversation." Koga said to the pair who were still facing Lady Kimi. Healer Michiko and Yukio turned around to look at Koga with only one emotion on their faces. Fear.
"I usually don't like to be the one to say this, but, I told you so." Lady Kimi said with a look of happiness on her face. The look on Healer Michiko and Yukio's faces changed, they weren't afraid, they were angry. Angry that a wolf-demon who had only been there a day had made a fool out of them in front of Koga. Healer Michiko and Yukio turned around quickly to face Lady Kimi and they jumped forward to grab Lady Kimi, but all they grabbed was air. In the second that it took for them to jump forward, Lady Kimi jumped up in the air to land beside Koga. Lady Kimi turned to face Koga and smiled. Yukio took that chance to run forward and put his mark on her shoulder. Lady Kimi looked at him with anger.
"You naughty pup. You shouldn't have done that!" Lady Kimi said as she punched him in the face which sent him flying into the back wall. Koga just looked on in surprise at what just happened.
"There is nothing you can do; she is now Yukio's mate." Healer Michiko said with a smirk while she helped Yukio get up. While Yukio was getting back up, Lady Kimi started focusing her power to her shoulder. Koga, Yukio, and Healer Michiko all looked on with surprise as the mark on Lady Kimi's shoulder disappeared.
"But, how?" Yukio asked in a bewildered tone, just staring at Lady Kimi with disbelief.
"You are so daft. Do you not know anything about white wolf-demons? We can choose whoever we mate. If someone places their mark on us, we can make it go away if we please." Lady Kimi said while laughing softly. Koga had already known that and wasn't that surprised. But Yukio and Healer didn't know that and had a look of amazement and surprise. Being the first to regain his composure Koga said "Because of your betrayal to the clan you are stripped of your rank and you and your son are banished from this clan. Leave now and never come back." Michiko and Yukio both left, knowing that it was best for their health if they obeyed Koga.
"Now that that's over, can I see Kiame please?" Lady Kimi said with a huge smile on her face. Koga just smiled and nodded as he led Lady Kimi out of the room and to Kiame.
