"Kagome come with me I'll protect you the eastern lands will protect you" he said as he pulled her close before she knew it she felt lips on her his arms pulling her hard against him as she whimpered out
Now:
Sesshoumaru was a little uneasy as he smelt the wolf within the room but as he smelled kagome's fear, he soon busted down the door only to see kagome pressed against the eastern heir not knowing that he had been going after kagome for all these years. As kagome was able to push off Kouga, it did take long for him to move in to punch the wolf to move to kagome grabbing her by the throat lifting her off the ground. She did not fight him his eyes were pure red in a jealous rage as he threw her out of the room to follow her only for her father to show up out of nowhere. When kagome had told him that Kouga had wanted her as a mate, he knew he needed to stay close knowing something might just happen with the two young pups so close together a fight was bound to happen. He saw kagome thrown out of her room falling down to a heap. He had been with an old friend he was going to introduce to his daughter as he felt she would need someone to be her friend through this that was more than just human. Sure enough, the woman that he was going to introduce to her appeared her gold hair swishing behind her looking to kagome then to the lord of the north. The woman's green eyes sparked with a fire as she moved over to pick the child up a rage of her own building as she had been good friends with both kagome's parents seeing her like this hadn't been something she had ever wanted to see. She rushed off leaving the males to what was going on knowing this was not something kagome would want to see as it was though.
Taikan was beyond pissed as he gave a roar as kagome had thrown hard knocking her out sesshoumaru had not even held back this time. Both Sesshoumaru and Kouga looked to the Northern lord only to see the Eastern lord appear looking to his son with a glare as he saw Lady Noriko
"Taikan calm down, you must deal with this clearly" Hideki said as he looked to his son as he was getting up from his own hole Sesshoumaru had left him in. "Now Lord Sesshoumaru what is the meaning of this?" Hideki asked as he wasn't about to let this young Lord get control of this as it seemed the lord was not in control of himself at the moment.
The moment Sesshoumaru had his mask back in place he walked off only to have Taikan grab him and whirl him around, with a growl only to meet one by sesshoumaru giving him one back as Hideki came in the middle.
"Alright now calm down" he said as Taikan let sesshoumaru go. Jerking back as he turned to leave he stopped for a minute.
"Sesshoumaru you will be moved away from my daughter you touch her like that again and I will not stop from throwing you out of this castle," he stated as Kouga came up huffing only to have Taikan look to him as well. "Kouga you touch my daughter again I'll rip your lips off period," he stated only to have Hideki nodding his head along with Taikan as he left.
"The two of you just ruined each other's and kagome's honor I thought you both grown I was wrong" he stated before leaving to follow and talk this all over with Taikan as he felt this wasn't the end of this as the two pups went their own ways.
~With Kagome~
Kagome gave a sigh as she started to come around her head hurt but she knew that in a few minutes she would be fine. She had never felt so uneasy her mind confused as she sat up though she felt a hand on her shoulder. Looking up she found her blue eyes meeting a deep green the woman that stood above her gave a soft smile as she moved to sit down. The golden hair was amazing to look at as she noticed the tails she had behind her made her wonder of her race.
"I'm a fox," the woman said as if she had been reading kagome's mind.
"Oh thank you for telling me," Kagome said as she watched, as the woman looked kagome over.
"My name is Noriko. I was a friend of your mothers," she stated to her as kagome's eyes went wide as she remembered what her mother had told her about this woman.
"Lady Noriko I didn't know I would meet you so soon" kagome said to Noriko with a soft smile as she remembered the stories that her mother had told her about her two sister like friends one being Sesshoumaru's mother the other being the being right in front of her.
"Much has changed since your mother's disappearance I do hope she is alright," Noriko said to kagome with a soft smile in return. She looked kagome over more just making sure she was okay.
"So child just what happened back there" she asked knowing that she would be smart to get kagome's side of the story.
Kagome gave a sigh as she placed her head in her hands tears coming so fast as she thought it all over she knew this wasn't going to go the way she wanted. As she cried, Noriko just held her to her chest knowing the pain she was feeling already with the weight of guilt in her stomach as she was still getting over Inuyasha the thought that Sesshoumaru would never want her now was overwhelming to say the least now. She started to tell Noriko of all the problems from the start of when the lords arrived. She listened not saying a word as she even heard more about Kouga had started about years before claiming her when she had not known who she was and in her human form. Noriko was a little more than shocked that kagome had been in the past for so long without them realizing it until now but as she understood a little more about the girl, she knew now just what she would do.
"Kagome you must trust your father to handle the two pups as for what you can do you'll stay by me I'll talk with your father with being closer to your room I'm sure the first thing he will do is move sesshoumaru away from you. Understand he has dishonored you as has Kouga by forcing himself on you" Noriko stated as kagome nodded her head wiping her tears away knowing she needed more control over her emotions about all of this. "I know it might be strange but in demon society woman your age are to be protected more so for your race to stay alive" Noriko explained. She knew the mother that would take that role but with Susume not being here, she would ask for permission to take up that spot for the young girl.
Kagome looked up to Noriko as she wondered just what to think but she was grateful for someone not fighting but instead just taking her side. However, she did not fully understand what that meant but she felt this would not be the only change while the other lords were here maybe even longer.
"Thank you so much for care enough to want to do such a thing" kagome said to her as she knew that anyone had the right to just walk away and stay out of the drama but as she saw what was going on Noriko had stopped and done something about it. It showed a kind heart just as her mother had told her about though the way her mother had described her held nothing to her true beauty.
"Kagome you don't have to thank me and let us go to your father I'm sure he is wishing to speak with you" Noriko said to her as she just stood and allowed kagome to do the same before she started towards kagome's father's study. She knew things had to change she just hoped they could act fast enough to get everything in place before dinner starts tonight along with the celebration afterwards. It was often that when an heir comes to the age of mating this be done if the heir were female more precautions are taken to insure her protection.
As they reached the doors, they found both the lords she was looking for in the study as she walked up the door opened just for the both of the women. Kagome looked right to her father rushing to him hugging him, as she felt horrible for all the commotion.
"I'm sorry father it was so fast," she said as he brought her closer to him a growl leaving his throat though as he felt kagome tense. He purred to calm her fears as he looked to the eastern lord now knowing that he had partly known that his son was in love with kagome just had not been sure it was the same kagome.
"Kagome it's not your fault the two were the one to dishonor you and on your opening night even worse" stated Hideki as kagome looked up to him she gasped as she had not even seen him there when she entered she had been so emotional. She had trained with her mother on control over them but they seemed to control over her with everything that was going about around her.
"No I did nothing to help stop everything," Kagome said as she truly did believe it was her fault while Hideki was shocked she was taking the blame on herself. He was not sure what to do though as he looked to the girl she showed of strength and yet here she was taking blame and pain of others mistakes.
"Well such things will not be allowed again," Taikan stated as he was starting to worry over his daughters seemingly taking everything on her. It was something she got from her mother it had truly taken its toll on his mate. He did not wish to see the same happen to his daughter. "You'll have a guard with you at all times to keep guard outside your door as well Sesshoumaru has been moved another wing" he told kagome as she nodded her head feeling that she shouldn't fight him on such a thing now.
"About that Taikan I would like to take the spot as the girl's chaperon through this she's truly so much like her mother" she said to him as kagome looked to the both of them as Taikan nodded his head. Knowing that Noriko would protect kagome with the power to read minds helped that as well.
"My daughter is your hands," he stated as kagome nodded her head returning to Noriko's side knowing that she was to stay with Noriko from now on. "Noriko I would like to offer you to Sesshoumaru's room as I feel you will be needed there," Taikan stated, as he was truly unable to stop his concerns for his only daughter. It had him wishing there was more but he had no right to stop the contracts that he held too.
"Now come Kagome we need to get you straighten out before we are to appear," Noriko stated to her as she motioned for her to leave kagome left bowing to the eastern lord before leaving out with Noriko. They went towards her room she couldn't believe that this was really going to be happening but as they walked into her room she felt like crying as she saw the damage from Kouga but she turned away to get down to business.
Noriko hadn't missed the cringe kagome had made as they entered her room she linked with Taikan telling him of the damage so that he might order it to be fixed before the celebration was over. Noriko moved kagome over to sit down pulling her hair back down to brush it out as she did kagome started to calm with each stroke of the brush.
"You look so much like your grandmother she would be proud of you" Noriko said to her as she finished brushing her hair letting it hang down this time as they stood up. "There you look much better now" Noriko looked to her with a large smile before turning for them to leave.
"Thank you" Kagome said to her with a soft smile she wanted to start with a strong step into the demon world to make her father proud. There were at least two hundred demons waiting for her Sango and Miroku were both out of the castle as they had decided to go to the slayer village to see if they could rebuild some of it while all the demon society came to the northern castle.
As the two came to a stop right before the doors to the main dining hall, she knew that things were going to be hard but she would face them with everything she was. This was strange to her yes but her mother's words rang through her head as the doors opened the guards making the announcement for her as she and Noriko came into the room all eyes on her gasping at the beauty that she held. Kagome's eyes crossed the room as she tried hard to see all that she could her eyes strong with determination that would rival a warrior though it was soft and inviting all to get to know her. Giving a bow, she turned and started towards the seat to her father's left though as she took the seat she heard a growl making her look right up seeing Sesshoumaru it seemed he still thought she was the one that had been with Kouga willingly. She did not want Kouga though with all that was going on it had her wondering who would be her loving mate when the time came she was just so uneasy with it. However, she was not going to let Sesshoumaru push her about as she gave a growl of her only silencing Sesshoumaru making a few gasp at the thought that she had done such a thing.
Taikan himself had been about ready to knock the pup back but hearing the growl come from his own daughter that put Sesshoumaru in his place for the moment he was grinning with pride knowing she was able to hold her own when needed. As he watched Noriko take a seat next to kagome he made a motion for the dinner to start as the food was out it was silent for the most part, only small talk is made. Kagome stayed silent for a while before she knew it though a few of the other daughters that were there of the visiting lords that had come. They spoke about how kagome was a two timing bitch that did not know how to handle anything worth touching. She just could not stop it all her mind racing trying to keep her anger in check. She kept eating as she felt the pat that Noriko gave her as kagome looked to her she knew the old fox had heard what being said.
The pat was all kagome seemed to need through all this Kouga had yet to make an appearance but kagome knew better than get her hopes up for the rest of the night. Once the meal finished the servants came taking it all away as they moved towards the ballroom music started up as many found themselves on the dance floor it was like a dream to her as she watched she had never thought of demons like this but they truly seemed civil on this one night. Though as she had many suitors coming up to her it seemed that Sesshoumaru was not coming anywhere near her she was growing tired as she slipped away out to the garden for a moment.
"Milady it's not safe alone," a dark cat demon said as he stood a few steps away from her his red eyes glowing but it was not something she saw with harmful intent with her.
"Yes I know, you're my guard?" kagome asked as he gave a nod. "Then what is your name?" she asked him as she just wanted to know who she talking to.
"Taika" he stated quietly before disappearing into the shadows as Noriko came out to see her.
"Child you had your father worried" Noriko said to her as she took a seat on the bench that kagome had found herself at.
"I just needed to breathe it feels so surreal to me" Kagome sighed as she looked up to the stars they were a comfort to her now as she heard some commotion coming towards her she looked over to see Kouga charging towards her she stood Noriko standing behind her seeing for herself just how he was towards kagome.
"Kagome" he spoke out, as he was instantly grabbing her hands holding them to his mouth. "I'm so sorry I couldn't protect you from that mutt if I had know he was there I would have beat him." He stated, as it seemed he was just now waking up. He was pulling her close as she pulled away thankful when Noriko came in to make him let go push him away as he growled only to look to her then stopped knowing the elder of the council. "What are you doing?" he asked Noriko.
"Protecting Lady Kagome's honor as it seems you don't care for it," Noriko stated with a growl, as she could not stay the male in front of her now. Noriko noticed the male trying to get pass her back to kagome who had turned away walking further into the garden.
Noriko smelt Sesshoumaru there but now he was actually the lesser of two evils seeing the feelings that kagome held for the lord she hoped he cleared his head before Kagome forced from him.
