Back at the castle, there was a different situation on hand.

"What do you mean?! There is no way that could have happened!" Inuyasha yelled.

"Inuyasha! I am pregnant and it is you who knocked me up!"

"I do not see how because I have never touched you wench!"

"Inuyasha! Is that any way to treat your wife?!"

"Heh! You aren't my wife! You just married me so that you could have a shot at claiming my father's throne!"

"I would never do that Inuyasha! Otherwise, I would not have remained married to you for these past six years!"

"Ha! Go ahead! Leave! You would be doing both me and this kingdom a favor!" Inuyasha said as he stormed off pass Sesshomaru and into his bedroom.

"I don't know what his problem is… I thought he would be happy to know that I am pregnant!" Kikyo said as she walked off in the opposite direction.

Sesshomaru walked to Inuyasha's room and knocked on the door.

"Inuyasha. Come on, let me in."

"It's open Sesshomaru."

Sesshomaru entered the room and sat down beside Inuyasha on the bed. "What was all that about?"

Inuyasha sighed. "Kikyo has just informed me that she is knocked up…"

"Well won't Father be proud." Sesshomaru said sarcastically.

"The thing is, I never touched her… so how can this child be mine as Kikyo claims it to be?"

"Your scent is not the one that is on Kikyo… you did notice that right?"

"I've been noticing an odor from another half demon on her for a while now… As much as I know she had tried to mask it, she cannot hide it from me." Inuyasha replied.

"Well right there is your proof. You might actually be able to get out of this marriage after all Inuyasha."

"Ha! Like Father would ever believe me… remember, he forced me to marry her in order to keep Kagome from being killed by his troops."

"I know Inuyasha… If it helps… I have been in contact with Kagome these past six years…"

"Really?!" Inuyasha asked as he stared at Sesshomaru. "H-how is she…"

"She is doing pretty well for someone who is just as heartbroken as you are… She has distractions to keep herself from losing it."

"I see… Does she… still…"

"That is something that I cannot answer. Only Kagome can answer that. But I will say that she still cares about you a lot… and thinks of you often."

"I see… Miroku has been keeping tabs on her for me as well."

"I thought that monk looked familiar. He's the one that hits on the women in the castle." Sesshomaru said jokingly.

"Yea." Inuyasha said as he smiled a light smile.

"I will go talk to Father. You know that he trusts me pretty well… I will inform him of the new scent around Kikyo."

"Thank you Sesshomaru. But I think that this is a matter that needs to be dealt with by me. I will talk to Father."

"Alright." Sesshomaru said before walking out of the room.

After a few minutes, Inuyasha also walked out of the room. He walked down the hall and into the room where he knew he would find his father.

Inutaishou was not surprised to see Inuyasha walking up to him. He knew that for the past six years, Inuyasha was not happy.

"Father… we need to talk."

"What is it Inuyasha? Another complaint about Kikyo?"

"Father… Kikyo has just informed me that she is pregnant."

Inutaishou looked at his son and stood. "It's about time Inuyasha!" he said as he walked over to hug Inuyasha.

"Father, please. Let me finish." Inuyasha said as he backed away from his father. Inutaishou looked at Inuyasha with a confused expression.

"The child is not mine…"

"What?!"

"There has been another's scent around Kikyo for the past two years now… At first, I thought it was just a friend. But now that she is pregnant… I know it is not mine because I have not touched her once… and the scent that has been around her for the past two years is at its strongest so I know that it is this mysterious half demon who is fathering this child."

Inutaishou was silent for a moment. He then looked to one of his guards and spoke.

"Bring Lady Kikyo to me. Tell her that I would like to congratulate her personally her wonderful news that she has shared with Inuyasha this morning."

"Father! Are you even listening to me?!" Inuyasha shouted. "You want to congratulate her on bringing dishonor to this family?!"

"Inuyasha, not another word!"

Inuyasha bowed his head. "Yes Father."
