Kagome sat their and looked at Sesshomaru with a shocked look on her face but as she just thought he was her only choice. "Thank you Sesshomaru I will accept if you follow threw on your offer than after I get my lands back I will become your mate." Kagome said trying not to freak out on him she still couldn't believe it.
"Wonderful now if you like I will show you to your rooms training will begin in two days I would suggest getting used to the castle and learn your way around I don't like for anyone to be late I will not accept an excuse for getting lost. Breakfast is served at 6 am every morning, lunch at noon and dinner at 7 if you get hungry between then go to the kitchen and get something. I will expect you at every meal every day. When you are not training you have free roam of the castle to do what you please." Sesshomaru spoke as he stood. Kagome just nodded and followed him out of the study to her rooms.
Kagome tried to memorize the halls and turns to the room but soon became flustered and gave up trying to memorize it. A few moments later he stopped out side of a room that had a large wooden door that had a giant dog on it curled around what looked like to be puppies. "This is your room my room is next door if you need me." Sesshomaru said as he pointed to the door next to hers. When she nodded he opened the door and went in Kagome following behind him into the room. "The door to your right leads to your bathing chambers and your wardrobe the door to your left leads to my rooms please knock and wait for me to tell you to enter before you walk in."Sesshomaru said. He didn't wait for a reply before he turned his back to her and walked out of the room. "Dinner will be in an hour I will send some one to lead you to the dinning room." With that he closed the door and left with out another word.
Kagome looked around on the wall to the left next to the door that led to Sesshomaru's room stood a king sized bed with silk sheets and thick quilt of silver and black silk. Next to the bed sat two oak night stands one on each side. The wall in front of her held a glass door covered in black curtains with silver embroider around the edges, she guessed it led to a balcony. On the right side of the room sat a vanity that held combs and different types of makeup of the time as well as a bowl of water and a rag for washing up. Next to the vanity was a large dresser of oak also with five large drawers to store her clothing and things in.
Kagome walked farther into the room as she pulled her back pack off her shoulder and walked toward the dresser. She pulled open the drawer and started placing her under garments and other clothing in. When she was done she walked over to the door that led to her bathing chambers walking in she was shocked to find that it was a natural spring with a small fountain coming off of the rocks that were against the wall. Next to the little fountain looked like shelves that had been carved into the rock for storing the bathing supply's pulling everything from her bag she placed her shampoo and conditioner along with her body wash next to the scented body oil's and other concoctions used to clean one's self.
Kagome folded up the now empty bag and placed it next to the dresser in her room and sat on the bed to await her escort to dinner. As she sat their waiting she realized how tired she was she had gone about a week or so with no sleep. Thinking she would just lay down and sleep threw dinner she lay down only for a knock to sound at her door. Groaning she sat up and walked to the door, as she opened it a girl stood on the other side with long green hair and dark green eyes. Her skin was a darker tan color showing she spent a lot of time outside in the sun her nails were green also almost the same color as her eyes. She was a shorter than Kagome which was no surprise as she was around 6 ft as a demon.
"Lady Kagome, I am Zoe I am here to show you to dinner please follow me." The girl said Kagome only nodded and followed the girl to the dining room. Kagome took the time to remember her surroundings so she wouldn't have too much trouble finding her way around before a thought struck her. She was a demon and a dog demon at that what did she have a nose for in the first place. Sniffing the air slightly she found her sent along with Sesshomaru's sent of sunshine, fresh air, and a woodsy type smell focusing on Sesshomaru's freshest sent she led her self by it and less by Zoe who still walked in front of her. With in no time she had the sent thing down as she did a victory dance in her head, Kagome had just noticed Zoe stop before she ran right into the back of the servant. Zoe quickly looked over her shoulder as to make sure that Kagome was still their before opening the door and stepping to the side for Kagome to enter.
Kagome looked around the dinning room as she entered walking slowly taking in the surroundings. The room was large the walls adorned by several more paintings who she guessed were past lords and ladies of the western lands. Another door was opposite to her that she guessed led to the kitchen from the delicious smell coming from the cracks around the door. A table sat in front of her with a red table cloth embroidered with little hexagons like the ones on Sesshomaru's clothing, before she could expect more she was brought out of her curiosity by the sound of the heavy doors closing behind her. Kagome looked behind her at the doors as if they were locking her in, she soon felt eyes on her back watching her every move. Slowly she turned to face Sesshomaru sitting at the end of a long table looking at her with his emotionless face though his eyes held what looked like curiosity. Kagome watched him for a few moments before he waved her to the seat next to him, nodding she walked to her seat carefully not to trip and make a fool of her self in from of him.
Sesshomaru watched the girl with interest as she walked into the dining room completely oblivious to him sitting their, he watched her as she looked around the room for a few moments before the servant closed the doors behind her. He watched her stare at the closed doors for a few moments before realizing that she was not alone in the room, she turned quickly and looked at him. Sesshomaru had to hold back a small laugh as shock showed in her eyes at seeing him sitting their. She stood for a few moments not moving before he became inpatient and motioned for her to take the seat on his right the seat that was reserved for his mate. She didn't know this but she quickly moved sitting her self on the pillow her eyes staring at the empty plate that sat on the table in front of her. Just looking at her it was hard to believe that she was the same woman that had followed his brother around for years. She had been his intended and had been under his nose for the past five hears and never even knew it he had even tried killing her a few different times in the past.
His pride was not as hurt as it had been knowing that she was a demon, for she had came close to causing him serious harm with her arrows in the past. Coming to thank of it she was a demon that's demonic powers and such had been sealed right? If she was a demon even with it sealed how could she wield miko powers as she did it was all too confusing. "Kagome do not be shy with me we will be getting to know each other over the time of your training as well as after words. So do not hesitate to ask questions I do not promise to answer all of your questions but I will answer the ones that seem adequate. So tell me how a demoness as your self even sealed have miko powers? A little contradicting don't you think?" Sesshomaru said his voice smooth but at the same time demanding.
Kagome sat for a few moments thanking over what he said. "I do not know how I wield both demonic powers and purifying powers you would think I would purify my self but it has not perhaps Myoga the flea can shine a little light on the situation. I have not seen him since Inuyasha had passed, but I have no way of contacting him. I could ask my mother but I am not speaking to her at the moment she has lied and decided me my entire life leading me to believe I was human and that I was born in a time not of my own. No matter if it was to protect me or not she still should of been honest with me especially when I fell threw the well to the past. It could of saved me a lot of trouble and pain over the last few years." Kagome said holding back her tears and fighting to keep her voice from cracking. She looked up at him as he watched her slightly nodding before the doors opposite she entered opened and a few servants filed in carrying trays of something that smelled like heaven.
Once the food was sat on the table another servant pored them wine in their glasses, he than sat the wine gored on the table and bowed until Sesshomaru nodded in his direction for permission to leave. Once the servants were out of the room the doors closed tightly behind them Sesshomaru lifted the lids of the platters. "Help your self." Was all he said. It seemed she didn't have to be told twice she immediately filled her plate with Domburi, (is cooked rice with other things put on top like chicken and egg or salmon and ikura (salmon egg's), mushrooms, and Nikujaga (meat and potatoes). Sesshomaru had to hide the grin that spread on his face he figured she had ate very little in the last week to due to her thinning looks, maybe even longer. Slightly shaking his head he filled his plate and ate watching Kagome eat with grace even though she seemed like she was starving.
"Sesshomaru where is Rin I figured I would of saw her by now but I haven't seen nor heard from her since I arrived." Kagome asked with curiosity.
"She is away for learning, no ward of mine will not no how to read or write. She will be gone for another four months before she returns for one before she returns for her learning." Sesshomaru answered not even looking at her.
Nodding Kagome continued eating her food as a comfortable silence fell between them as they ate. When Dinner was done the servants appeared again and took the trays away a few Coming out to bring dessert. The Castella (a sponge cake type thing) was sat on the table and served to the both of them, Kagome grinned it was one of her favorite desserts.
