"P..Pregnant." Naraku repeated.

"Yes it was your idea after all." Alean reminded him

"How far along?" he asked.

"A few weeks." She said

Naraku nodded his head and looked at Hijirri and smiled the house was going to be filled with another baby, hopefully a girl this time. Naraku smirked as he thought how to tell his first born he was going to have a sibling.

Hijirri looked at his dad and cocked his head to the side.

"Am I in trouble?" he asked Naraku.

"No, you aren't in trouble." Naraku told him.

"How do we tell him?" Naraku asked Alean.

"I don't know." Alean said to him.

Naraku sighed. "Hijirri your mommy and I have something important to tell you." Naraku said as he folded his hands

"What is it Mommy?" Hijirri asked.

"Honey how do you feel about being a big brother?" Alean asked him.

"You mean like Shippo and Shiori?" he asked

"Exactly." Alean said smiling at him

"I guess that would be fun, why do you ask mommy?"

"Well in about seven months mommy will be bringing home a baby brother or sister." She said.

"Really?!" he asked.

"Daddy did. You hear what mommy said?" he asked.

"Yes I did. You seem happy about the news." Naraku said to him.

"Mhmm, I can't wait to the baby comes." He said

"That was easy." Alean whispered to Naraku.

Naraku nodded his head.

When dinner was over. The three went back home, Alean took Hijiri up to bed, Naraku sighed he was glad that his son accepted the news so good, clearly he took afer Alean.

Next Day

Naraku was at work when Onigumo walked in. "You have a minute?" Onigumo asked him

"What is it?" Naraku asked

"I was talking to my fiancé about you she really wants to meet you and Alean." He told him.

"So what's the problem?" Naraku asked.

"N..no problem when is a good time for you?" Onigumo asked.

"How about tonight at my house?" Naraku asked him.

"Sure see you tonight." Onigumo said and left.

Naraku couldn't help but laugh at his cousin. Onigumo was so paranoid.

Naraku called Alean to let her know they would be having company tonight.


Sesshoumaru left the kids with the nanny and went to see Kagome to see what effect the darkness was having on her.. Sesshoumaru rang the doorbell and waited for her to answer.

Kagome opened the door. She was wearing a pair of shorts and a white T-shirt.

"Hey come in." She said to him.

Sesshoumaru looked at her hair was slowly growing back. "What's up Sess?" she asked as she sat down in the chair.

"I just wanted to see you,." He told her.

"Oh no particular reason?" she asked.

"How are you feeling?" Sesshoumaru asked her.

"I'm fine why?" she asked him.

"Kagome what would you say if I demanded you to move back in with me?" he asked.

Kagome looked at him and then thought about what he said. Her head began to hurt.

She placed her hands on the side of her head. Sesshoumaru smirked, he was still able to control her.

Sesshoumaru walked over to Kagome and pulled her hands down and kissed her on the forehead. "I'll get you some aspirin and water." He said and walked into the kitchen.

Sesshoumaru came back and handed Kagome the glass of water and aspirin.

"Thank you." She said and swallowed the aspirin and drank the glass of water.

Sesshoumaru sat down on the sofa and regarded her silted eyes."First time I had a headache like that in years." She said.

"Hmm." Was all he said.

"How about we I take you out?" he asked.

"Ok, let me change my clothes." She said and went upstairs to change.

"Seems some things never change." He said to himself.


Naraku walked in the house to the aromas of food being cooked. He walked back into the kitchen. To see the cooks busy making dinner.

"You're home." Alean said as she walked up behind him and kissed him on the nape of his neck.

Naraku turned around and kissed her back. "I'm going to take a shower." He told her.

Naraku showered, he wondered what was so special about Onigumo's fiancé that he was afraid to let her meet him.

Naraku finished his shower and dressed for the evening he wore a pair of black pants and a white shirt., He put on some cologne and brushed his hair before going back down the stairs.

The dinner was almost done all was needed was for Onigumo and Yumi to come. The table was set. Hijiri was seated at the table.

"Mommy who are we waiting for?" he asked.

"Your cousin Onigumo and his friend." She told him.

Naraku looked at his watch when the doorbell rang. The butler went and answered the door.

Onigumo and Yumi walked in, Onigumo wore black shirt and black pants his hair was tied back, Yumi wore red lace top with a V-neck that showed cleavage along with a pair of tight pair of black pants and black heeled shoes. Naraku stood up as Yumi walked in holding Onigumo's hand. Alean looked at Naraku.

"Yumi I'd like you to meet my cousin Naraku, his wife Alean and their son Hijirri." He introduced.

"Nice to finally meet you Naraku." Yumi purred

"Likewise." He said as he held out the chair for her.

Yumi sat down, as did Onigumo. Alean cleared her throat.

"So Oni, Yumi when's the wedding?" she asked as she watched Naraku drool over Yumi.

"In four weeks." Onigumo told her.

Naraku couldn't get over the black cat ears he wanted so badly to touch them, but didn't.

As dinner progressed, Alean became more anxious the way her Naraku was looking at Yumi made her think how he looked at her before he cheated on Kagura.

"Excuse me." Alean said an excused herself from the table

Naraku looked to see Alean gone. Onigumo cleared his throat. "We better get going." Onigumo said getting up.

"So soon?" Naraku asked him.

"I think it's for the best." Onigumo said as he helped Yumi up.

"Nice meeting you Naraku." Yumi purred before leaving with Onigumo.

The nanny took Hijiri up to his bedroom.


Alean was crying, as she sat on their bed. "He's going to leave me for her." She cried some more.

Naraku walked into the bedroom to see Alean crying.

"What's wrong?" he asked her.

Alean narrowed her eyes at him. "You bastard!, How dare you look at some cat!" She hissed.

"I only looked Alean I'm not going with her." He tried to explain.

"Liar, that's the same thing you did to get me!" She yelled.

"You wanted me just as much as I wanted you!"

"So are you saying that she wants you?!" she screeched.

"No!, I don't want her. I love you." He said as he moved close to her.

Alean picked up a shoe and threw it at his head Naraku didn't duck in time and was hit in the middle of his head.

"Get out Sleep somewhere else!" she yelled.

"Are you serious?!" he asked.

"I swear Naraku if you don't get out of this room I'll castrate you!" She warned him.

That was all Naraku needed to hear he quickly left the room and walked down to the guestroom. He growled as he sat down on the bed .

He promised himself that he would kill Onigumo the next time he saw him.
