(If the writing is different, I apologize. New medication is really messing with my mojo/muse. Sesshoumaru is winning in the polls… so I'm off to formulate da plan!)

Chapter 9:

"Please Kagome, this Sesshomaru's actions are inexcusable and thanks are given to the Wolf that has cared for you both so suitably. This lord begs you Kagome. He begs that you allow Sayuri to know him. Let this Sesshoumaru be her farther, if you are unwilling to try romantic entanglements and mating between us… please, do not take away Sayuri." Sesshomaru plead as he grasped Kagome's hands in his own clawed ones. "This one has made many mistakes. Please forgive this Sesshomaru his stupidity and pride."

Silence ensued and three sets of eyes bugged comically at Sesshoumaru as they processed what had just been said.

Sayuri was the first to respond with a series of yips. InuYasha and Kouga were still in a state of shock and continued to be unresponsive.

Kagome looked into the pleading golden eyes she had once melted for, "You speak pretty words, but at the end of the day… they are still only pretty words." Sayuri growled at her mother's response and placed a well aimed kick to her bladder. "Ouch! So you agree with your sperm donor do you?" Sayuri whimpered at her mother's snappish tone. Kagome rubbed her protruding stomach and spoke more calmly, "Sorry Mommy yelled, Sayuri. But what about Kouga, doesn't Sayuri love Kouga too?"

A mournful, pitiful excuse of a howl echoed in the room as Sayuri's reply. It sounded eerily like a goodbye, which brought Kouga from his stupor.

"Lil' Lily, it's alright to want your sire," Kouga replied in soothing tones, his blue eyes lifted and met with Kagome's. Kouga understood Sayuri was acting off instinct, the stronger Alpha would appeal because of the safety… the blood link only cemented that feeling. Maybe after the pup was born, Kouga had a better chance of imprinting through kindness... but at this stage, strength would win over love.

InuYasha had watched the trio closely: his brother had relaxed at Kouga's acceptance and honest scent, Kouga had an air of defeat about him and Kagome looking back at the hanyou helplessly. InuYasha gave a shrug of his shoulders in response; this must be some kind of Alpha shit because he was as confused as Kagome.

All this drama ends with a fucking handshake and goodbye? He was glad he was hanyou, full bloods were a fucked-up bunch.

InuYasha was about to speak up about the bull shit of it all… but Kagome beat him to it.

"So, it only takes an apology after denying your daughter, missing doctor appointments and my mood swings… I don't think so!" Kagome rattled through clenched teeth as she advanced on Sesshoumaru. Then turning she glared at Kouga, "And you! You have been there for me through all of this. You've turned your world upside- fucking-down… Was I such an inconvenience that you just shove me off to this asshole? Saying 'no' isn't that damn hard Kouga!"

Both males began to plead their cases but were silenced by a petite hand slashed through the air, "I don't want to hear shit from either of you morons! If neither of you will take MY opinion into consideration… I'll find someone who will!"

With that Kagome stomped her pregnant self and InuYasha out of the den and up to her room to pack. She wasn't sure were she was staying yet… but she knew most definitely where she was not! She needed to write! She needed a hug! She really needed to get her life together!

Sayuri had stayed silent during her mother's tirade, and made slight whimpers when Kagome began to over exert herself in packing. Dammit, when had she accumulated so much shit? Oh yeah… baby stuff.

Grabbing InuYasha by the back of the shirt, she stopped him from clearing her closet, and just hugged him. Her hormones were a wreck… she didn't know what she wanted or what to do. Everything was so much easier BEFORE Sesshoumaru came back into her life. Kagome thought she had everything planned, well, a rough draft at least. Now it was all scattered in the wind.

InuYasha let Kagome cry, knowing the demons downstairs could hear and smell it all… and was glad. Pregnancy had made her body all fun-house-mirror and that would have pissed him off if he were a chick. Unfortunately, Kagome had been a hot mess of mood swings before she got pregnant, he could only imagine the nightmare she was now. He felt a smirk tease his lips at the possible songs Kagome would create from this mess.
