Chapter 15 - Liar.

"It's time to wake up my love."

"But why?" I whined.

"My mother wants to meet again today."

I sat up in bed. "Is something wrong?"

"I'm not sure. She said she has something to discuss with you."

"With me?! Can't we just lay in bed all day." I snuggled up to him.

He kissed my forehead. "As much as I would love that. Knowing my mother, she would come knocking on the front door."

I sighed. "Okay, fine."

The drive was painstakingly long. I'd fallen asleep and woken up at least twice. The slam of the car door woke me.

"Oh good you're awake. " He chuckled. "Want me to carry you inside?"

"No, Kim might call me weak for it."

He laughed, holding my hand. We appeared to be meeting at another restaurant. This one was smaller. We stepped inside, I immediately noticed it was empty. Kim sat alone in the middle of the restaurant.. she didn't look pleased, at all. We both sat down at the table.

"The restaurant is empty."

"Yes. Thank you for stating the obvious. I rented it out so that we may have privacy."

"I see."

"Sesshomaru dear, I am going to speak to Kagome and I do not want you to interfere."

"I will not allow you to speak to her however you want mother."

"No. It's okay Sesshomaru. Whatever she has to say I can handle it."

She pressed her lips into a tight line. "You are a liar, and you are not welcome in my sons life."

"Excuse me?"

"When I left yesterday, the work I had to attend to. Was the back round check I had done on you. Do you know what I found out. That my son has decided to marry a shrew that let her husband beat on her, and kill her family. A woman like that has no place in the Taisho family. You had the chance to tell me this and you di not."

"Mother!"

"No, it's okay Sesshomaru . I made a mistake Kim. People make mistakes. For years I stayed with him so he wouldn't hurt the ones I cared about. My brother, finally gave me the courage to leave. So because he decided to help me get away from that monster, he paid for it. Then I went back, but I left again... and my sister lost her family because of it. I didn't let him do anything. If you would've did your research properly Kim. You would've known that Kouga is a serial killer and he started killing long before he met me. I didn't let him kill anyone. Should I have protected them a different way? Yes, yes I should have. But the fact that they are gone hurts me more than you could ever know. There is no pain like missing someone that is never coming back. So don't sit there and judge me because of the mistakes I've made.. I wish I could go back and change it all. But I cant."

"There's is nothing you can say to change my mind. You're here playing house with my son, meanwhile your maniac of an ex husband is on the loose. Putting my son eminent danger. You're just using him as a means for protection and nothing more. When this is all over, there isn't a doubt in my mind that you'll leave him."

"Mother! That is enough. I persuaded Kagome to leave him. If I hadn't come along she would have stayed with him, if you want someone to blame mother. Blame me, and there is nothing you can say that will make me stop loving her. So top while you're ahead."

"Sesshomaru! I am your mother. You will respect me."

"She is my fiancé. My soon to be wife and you will respect her."

I rubbed my thumb over my engagement ring, trying my best not to smile.

"I will not attend your wedding if you marry her."

"Will all due respect mother. You are not invited."

"Sesshomaru, you can not be serious."

"If that is all mother."

He stood up walking out getting into the car, I followed suit.

"You didn't have to do that you know. She's your mom."

"Yes i did. You're going to be my wife. She may be my mother, but she will never be my mom."

"What do you mean?" I asked him.

"She wasn't there to kiss my bruises when I got hurt. She missed my graduations. She knows absolutely nothing about me. She was never around Kagome. So she may be my mother, but she will never be my mom."

I kissed the back of his hand softly. "I'm sorry."

He sighed. "Don't be. So, what do you say we go home. I make you some dinner and we can lay in bed and watch movies all day. Sound good."

"I smiled. "That sounds lovely."

This felt perfect. Just being with him. But I knew it wouldn't last long... Kouga would come for me soon enough...
