The wind blew the scent of his mate towards him, but that was not the only scent the wind cast to his sensitive nose.
There were two different scents. They were a blend between his own and his mate's…they were the perfect mix of both. One had more of his scent while the younger of the two had more of his mate's. There were the scents of his son and daughter.
He could see their silhouettes in the setting sun's orange glow as they ran in the garden of his kingdom. His son, Shouji, sprinted ahead of the other two but ran too quickly he tripped. Rin's figure hurried up to her fallen son and rubbed the dirt from his cheeks.
Sesshomaru could hear their conversation as though they stood right beside him. Rin helped her white haired, dog-eared, deep amber eyed son up and tried comforting the boy, "Sugoi Shouji! You run so fast, nearly as fast as your father. I'm so proud of you!"
The boy's frown turned upward into a happy smile, making the maroon stripes on his cheeks curve as well. "Realy?! But I tripped…"
"That's alright, everyone falls sometime. Anyways, you can learn from this moment," Rin said optimistically.
"How?"
"Well…now you'll always watch where you're stepping and you will become one of the most graceful demons in the world!" she cheered and pumped one hand into the air.
"Yosh! I'll be just like Father!" Shouji grinned and grabbed his mother's hands and ran off again.
Sesshomaru smiled lightly; his son may have gotten his looks but he certainly had his mother's personality…his daughter, Aya, on the other hand, well, she had her mother's looks and personality but when she got mad…she REALLY had her father's personality.
He was brought out of his thoughts by a small tug on his sleeve. Amber met brown as he looked down at his four year old daughter's eyes. She had dark brown hair with two dog-ears perched on top and she had a small crescent moon on her forehead.
"Father, here," she smiled and handed him a large bundle of variant types of flowers that were in the gardens.
Sesshomaru nodded and took the blooms from her hand and pulled her into his lap. "Arigatou Aya. You know, your mother always used to pick flowers for me as well when she was young," he said calmly.
"Really? What was mother like when she was younger?" Aya asked curiously.
"She was a human."
Aya gasped, "Mommy was a ningen?! B-But she's half demon now!"
"Would you like to hear our story," the girl's father chuckled softly.
"HAI!" she cheered.
"Well, something you probably don't know about me is that I used to despise humans," he paused momentarily as Aya gasped again in shock but he continued, "I had been injured many, many years ago by your uncle and your mother found me in the woods. She was only seven at the time; orphaned, mute, and alone. She was unlike any human I had ever encountered. She didn't fear me and tried to help me heal by giving me human food-"
"-Silly! You don't like human food," Aya giggled.
"Precisely. I told her many a time but she still continued to bring me fish, water, and so on. However, one day she returned with bruises…" Sesshomaru growled and his eyes turned slightly red for a split second, "the villager's didn't take kindly to thieves-"
"Mommy was a thief?!"
"Not really…she needed food to survive and because she didn't have family, she had to find the food her self. One night, though, they caught her…"
"That's why Mommy had bruises…" the young girl finished sadly.
"Yes. Anyway, later that day I left-"
"-And I was attacked and killed by wolves, and was brought back by my Sesshomaru-sama," Rin's voice caught the two's attention. Rin smiled and looked down at Shouji to her right, "do you want to hear this story too?"
The boy nodded enthusiastically and the mother and son took a seat along with the rest of the family. That night the children learned the story of how the great demon lord and his mate came to be; how the demon who once hated humans fell in love with one himself.
THE END!
