On the eighth day of Christmas
my true love sent to me:
8 Maids a Milking
The news of Lord Sesshomaru fining a female reached far and wide. He warned Kagome that many would come and she worried.
Even as they stood side by side waiting for the guest to arrive.
"Don't worry Kagome; I'm sure he already threatened them with death" Inuyasha spoke standing behind them.
"Be silent half breed" Sesshomaru snapped,
Kagome touched Sesshomaru's arm, and he looked down at her "Are you sure you want to marry me."
Sesshomaru face became quite serious "Why do you ask such a thing now?"
Kagome put a hand to her tummy "Any children we have will be half"
Sesshomaru glance down as his heart leaped up. Though she was still innocent, the thought of her pregnant with his seed thrilled him. But then he understood "I shall forgo the use of that term Miko."
Inuyasha's jaw dropped, and his mate elbowed him. Kagome smiled "Thank you."
Just then the horns blew, the others had arrived.
"There are eight houses," He told her,
Kagome stood tall as all eight came to stand in front of them with bows.
"My Lady!" One of the women said, grabbing Kagome hand and kissing it "Such a rare beauty, no wonder my Lord has chosen you."
Kagome blushed at the woman then she heard a moo. Kagome looked passed them "Is that a cow?!"
The woman released her hand and looked back "Oh yes, eight cows and eight maids to milk them."
"Urm?"
Inuyasha snickered causing Kikyo to elbow him.
Miroku cleared his throat "Kagome, it is custom for them to bring the cows and the maids to milk them for the milk."
Kagome looked back at him "Why?"
Miroku looked at Sesshomaru,
Sesshomaru took his cue and leaned down "It is said to bring in your milk."
"My -" She paused and then blushed hard causing everyone else to laugh in enjoyment.
"Soon Miko" Sesshomaru promised her while stealing a glance at her midsection.
