Kagome shook in Sesshomaru's arms, feeling the tears slide down her cheeks.

"H-How?" She asked him again, choking on a sob.

"Tenseiga." He mumbled.

Silence.

After minutes of the little family coming together again, Kagome stood on shaky knees, watching as Kaya played with her father's ears.

Sesshomaru drew the child at arms length, raising an eyebrow at her. He studied her features, noticing her eyes. They were like her mother's, but he also noticed that they changed to amber as well, like his.

Kagome watched them together, making her heart feel full and heavy. Kaya was laughing at her father's facial expression, cooing at how serious he looked.

"She's quite mischievous. I see a lot of Inuyasha in her."

Sesshomaru looked at her in exasperation.

Kagome chuckled.

They were making their way back to Kaede's village. When they got there, Sango and Miroku were sitting around a campfire. Shippo and Rin were asleep in a heap beside Kilala and Jaken.

Kagome felt tears prick her eyes again.

Sango was staring into the flames, when a sound caught her ears. She looked up and saw two figures emerge from the dark tree line. Her breath caught when she realized who they were.

"Kagome!" Sango shrieked and shot up to embrace her friend.

The girls embraced each other, happy tears rolling down their faces. "I didn't think you'd come back!" Sango said to her, sniffling.

"I thought about it. I wasn't sure if I could come back and face what had happened. But, Kaya. She's been having these episodes..."

Sango raised an eyebrow, "What sort of episodes are you referring to Kagome?"

Miroku had walked over to the girl and reached out for Kagome. He stopped suddenly and looked over to Sesshomaru who was staring back at him. Sesshomaru raised an eyebrow but nodded slightly, giving permission.

Miroku quickly hugged her, not daring to let his hand stray anywhere near her butt. Kagome almost laughed, finding that fact humorous. The man pulled away and smiled at her, "We've missed you Kagome. It feels like it's been forever."

"Kagome!" Two small voices split through the air.

Rin and Shippo were bounding towards her, their little arms spread open for her embrace. She bent down and caught them when the leapt through the air, knocking her onto her back. The children squeezed her, making her giggle.

"We missed you Kagome!"

They were all sitting around the campfire, Kagome holding a sleeping Kaya in her arms.

"What episodes are you talking about Kagome?" Sango brought up again, a little concerned.

Kagome sighed and nodded her head, glancing over at Sesshomaru. "Well, I'm not entirely sure if it's cause for concern. It's just worried me because I've never seen it before."

Silence.

"Well, when Kaya starts to get upset, her crescent moon on her forehead starts to glow. Sometimes it's dull and sometimes it's very bright."

They all looked at her while she told her story regarding the night that brought her and Kaya back.

"She was screaming, her little moon was beaming so brightly, it was almost blinding me."

Sesshomaru looked at her, deep in thought.

Sango sighed and ran her hands over her boomerang bone.

"Is this when you got rid of your Shikon Shards Kagome?" Miroku asked her, moving his staff onto the ground.

"Yes," she answered him.

"Well, I have a theory. Kaya is a product of both you and Sesshomaru. Two people of two different worlds. Your connection before was your mating mark. Well, when that was gone, you didn't have a connection until Kaya was born. My theory is that as your connection, she responds to your emotions."

Kagome and Sesshomaru were looking at him.

"So, that would explain why the light was so bright." Kagome said, looking down at her child, running her finger over her little moon.

Sesshomaru watched the two, and looked back at the monk, "Is it cause for concern?"

Miroku sighed and shrugged his shoulder. "I'm not entirely sure. One would think not, but, Kagome, did she look like she was in any pain when this episode was happening?"

The miko sighed, "She was screaming when the light got brighter, so, I guess?"

Sango bit her bottom lip.

"We just need to watch her." Miroku said.

"Who could we ask that would know?"

The group went silent.

"There's two people that might know," Kagome said.

"Who?" Sango asked.

"Totosai and Myoga."


Sesshomaru stood outside the tent that the group was in. They were getting ready for sleep and he wanted to talk to Kagome somewhere privately.

Kagome handed Kaya over to Sango, softly placing her in her friends arms.

"If she wakes up, just come and get me." Kagome said to the slayer.

Sango raised an eyebrow, smirking.

"What?" Kagome asked, blushing.

"I think you and Sesshomaru need your alone time. If she wakes up, I'll take care of it."

Kagome left the tent, looking at Sesshomaru as he watched the stars above.

She walked over and touched his sleeve. His amber eyes slid down to her azure one's, making her breathless.

He looked away from her and started to walk into the treeline.

Looking back at the tent, Kagome followed him.

They didn't walk too far into the woods, just far enough.

"What did you need to talk to me about Sesshomaru?" She asked him, watching the silk of his haori sway in the soft breeze.

Turning, he looked at her, heat in his amber orbs. Kagome didn't have time to contemplate anything before he was upon her. He melded his lips against hers, relishing in the warmth of them. His hand stroked her cheek, making her moan against him.

Kagome was hanging onto his haori, feeling the silk beneath her fingers. Her face broke out in a blush when his lips trailed further down to the juncture of her neck. His lips slid delicately along her skin, making her shudder.

Kagome ran her fingers through his hair, making him purr.

He retreated from touching her, looking into her face.

His clawed hands went up to the latch that held his armor and he undid it, letting it fall slightly off his chest. He reached down and took it off, laying it off to the side.

Kagome watched his movements, it making her blood hum, she knew what he needed, what he wanted.

And she wanted it to, Kami she wanted it to.

Her hands started to unbutton the shirt she had on. They were staring at each other, watching the others movements.

He laid her down, naked upon his silken clothes. His hungry eyes raked over her, and his fingers went out to pink her pink nipples, making them pucker. Kagome moaned, moving up to catch his lips with hers. Their tongues did a dance, and Kagome shuddered.

Sesshomaru didn't want to wait, he wanted to be inside her.

Pushing her thighs open, he looked into his eyes, waiting on her permission to continue.

She nodded, closing her eyes, wanting his hands to touch her again.

His warm hands gripped her thighs, drawing his claws down the silken flesh. Kagome arched, feeling the wind hit her wet core, sending another shiver down her spine.

Sesshomaru sucked on her nipple, positioning himself at her core. Kagome lifted her hips, wanting him inside her.

He pushed through, sinking deep within her. The movement made both of them gasp with completion with each other.

Her hands ran up his strong back, feeling his hips thrust inside of her. She moaned and looked up into the sky. The pleasure ripped through her at every jut of his hips.

Sesshomaru was trying not to grit his teeth as he felt her tight walls close over him each time he entered her.

His hands went down to thighs, spreading them wider, feeling himself ease in deeper. Kagome gasped, feeling him inside of her fully.

Sesshomaru was grunting as she shuddered around him.

Kagome wanted to be closer to him, wanted to taste him as he made love to her. She pushed at his shoulders.

"Sit up." She said, he looked at her in question, but did as she asked.

Kagome sat up and sat upon his lap, re-positioning him at her entrance. She sat down on him fully, making him groan. She moaned as well, throwing her head back as her nipples ran across his chest.

His hands grabbed her hips, and he grunted when she started to move them in a circle. Kagome kissed him, running her tongue across his lips and trailed her fingers up to his ear and rubbed it.

Sesshomaru growled and roughly forced her against his chest, weaving his hands through her hair and biting her own ear. Kagome whimpered, feeling the pleasure make every nerve ending tingle.

Sesshomaru wanted to fuck her. Looping his hands under her thighs, he flipped her around onto her knees. Gripping his cock, he aligned it at her entrance and pushed as far in as he good go. Kagome gasped and thrust her hips back.

He was pumping into her almost painfully. Kagome felt her breasts bounce in time with his vicious thrusts and her knees dig into the ground below them.

She was moaning loudly, feeling him hit the spot deep within her that made her toes curl.

Sesshomaru reached down and rubbed her clit right before his orgasm ripped through him. He was pushing in and out of her and suddenly grabbed her arms and thrust her back against his chest. He growled and sunk his fangs into her neck, causing Kagome to convulse around his cock. The miko rode through her orgasm, opening her mouth and eliciting a rather loud groan into the night air.

Sesshomaru was pumping his seed into her, his fangs drawing blood from her neck as he marked her once again.

Kagome came down from her orgasm, now feeling the pain that his fangs had brought her. Sesshomaru was panting, his nose now pressed against her collarbone. When he heard her painful whimper, he ran his tongue over the wound that he had adorned on her skin.

Afterwards, Kagome lay with Sesshomaru, her head on his shoulder. "It's been a long time since we did that."

The demon nodded his head.

Turning, Kagome looked into his golden eyes, "So, that means that we're mates again?"

His eyes stared into hers, and he nodded again.

Kagome felt the tears prick her eyes and she hugged him, relishing in the peace that she now felt.


I'm sorry it took me so long to update, I hope you enjoyed this chapter.
