~Sesshomaru~

After meeting Kagura at the ball and getting to know her, I wanted her to come by today. She really was fascinating to be around and I loved her. This morning I woke up with a small smile on my face all I could do is think about Kagura. Rin came in and noticed this and ran back out calling my father. She pulled him by the hand to my room as I was getting dressed.

"Look Inupapa! He's smiling and Rin didn't make him smile! Rin scared!" she said hiding behind his leg. He chuckled as did I. Smiling for me was a rare event, it usually meant someone was going to get hurt but not today. Instead I was smiling because of Kagura.

"Rin Sesshomaru is love struck." He said patting her head. She looked up at him holding on to his leg.

"Love struck? What's that ?" she asked. I looked her at innocents, I walked over to her and picked her up into my arms. Spinning her around in my room, she laughed.

"I'm in love with Kagura." I said brushing the bangs from her eyes. All the sudden her smile turned to a frown.

"Oh." She slid out of my arms and ran over to my father. It seemed to me that she didn't like the fact I was in love with Kagura.

"Rin do you not wish for me to in love with Kagura?" I asked. She looked at me.

"Rin don't care." She replied. There was something about Kagura that she didn't like, but hopefully that changes today.

"So is Kagura going to me your future mate?" he asked with a cocky smile. I nodded.

"If everything goes good, she will be." I replied. He gave out a loud laugh before picking up Rin and leaving. I really did hope everything goes well. Rin has always wanted a mother.

Around twelve Kagura had arrived, she was wearing a yellow summer dress that went to her knees with some yellow feathers in her hair. She looked wonderful, I smiled to my self. As she entered I held out my arm to her, she took it with no hesitation as I guided her to the dining room. When we entered my father, Izayoi, Inuyasha, Mizuki and Rin were already seated but I noticed there was also another person sitting across Mizuki with black hair. It was that Hiroshi boy Mizuki had met when we went out. What was he doing here? I took my usual seat next to father, Rin was down one so Kagura could sit next to me. As she took her seat, I noticed Rin didn't bother to greet her nor talk to her at all. Which was not like my Rin.

"Everyone I would like to introduce you to Lady Kagura." I said. She stood up and bowed.

"A pleasure to meet you all." She smiled. My father nodded.

"As it is nice to meet you once again." He laughed. My father clapped his hands and the servants rushed out with our meals. It was quiet until Hiroshi decided to break the silence.

"Hey little princess, I have a brother your age." He said. She smiled.

"Really? Is he nice?" she asked. I clenched my teeth together, why the hell was he here anyways?

"Eh… Sometimes. He would be nice to you." He smiled. His presence was irritated me and I didn't want Rin to talk to him. Did Mizuki invite him?

"Why are you here?" I asked. He turned to me and smiled.

"Because Mizuki asked me to have lunch with her today!" he replied. My father sighed.

"You didn't have to show up." I growled. He was still smiling, which was getting on my nerves. Mizuki did this on purpose because she knew Kagura was coming today. I felt a hand on my shoulder, it was Kagura's. She had the calmest look in her eyes which made me calm down as well.

"Mi'lord its okay." She soothed. I nodded. Something about Kagura was completely unique. This woman was going to make me fall for her hard.

"Sesshomaru calm down and eat." My father ordered. Hiroshi continued to have a conversation with everybody except for me and Kagura. We just had our own conversation.

~Mizuki~

I decided to invite Hiroshi to lunch, last night he asked me to be his girlfriend and I kindly accepted. He was really something else and of course Rin absolutely adored him. I could tell him being here was making Sesshomaru mad. He didn't like him talking to Rin but what I don't care. Today we planned to have a picnic in the garden later and maybe go for a walk. I had to watch Rin today but he didn't mind, instead he was rather happy to help me. We sat eating lunch in the dining room, Ryoku came out and offered more drink.

"Watch this." He whispered. He nudged Inuyasha's elbow as they both nodded, they stuck out both their legs as Ryoku walked over to their spots and tripped causing the tea to fall on him. Soaking him. As he stood up I could see the anger in eyes fill.

"Hey remember you can't do nothing." Inuyasha smiled.

"Inuyasha that was quite rude!" the empress said. Ryoku rolled up his sleeves and smirked.

"Your right Inuyasha I can't do nothing that will kill you but I can certainly do this." Ryoku sstood in between the two, he then punched Inuyasha and Hiroshi both on the side of the head, before putting his elbows together and punching them in the face with his elbow and last knocking them both on head making them conscious. He then bowed and left. The emperor sighed.

"I wish you boys wouldn't play around like that." He said rubbing his forehead.

"I'm sorry your majesty but they joke too much." Ryoku looked my way .

"Wow Ryoku I didn't know you had a mean side of you." I said. He smiled.

"It runs in the family but I'm already on probation so I have to learn how to handle a situation better." He said as he walked back into the kitchen. He handled this situation pretty well, knocking both of them out. By the end of lunch Inuyasha and Hiroshi came to, both complaining they had a major headache. I laughed. Once we had all finished Hiroshi, Rin and I excused ourselves. Sesshomaru requested that Rin spend the day with him and Kagura instead of with me and Hiroshi.

"But Sesshomaru-sama I want to go with Mizuki and Hiroshi." She whined.

"No, Rin besides I think it would be good for you to get to know Kagura." He replied I rolled my eyes. Bullshit, he just didn't want Rin around Hiroshi. I don't know what his deal is with him but he needs to get over it. Rin slouched in her chair, I could tell she wanted to cry. She didn't want to be nowhere near Kagura. I laid my hand on her shoulder.

"If you need me, just call." I whispered, she smiled and ran off with Sesshomaru and Kagura.

~Sesshomaru~

Finally lunch was over, I didn't want to be in that room any longer with that boy. Mizuki was going to take Rin today but I didn't want her to be around Hiroshi. When I told her she was going to come with me, she got upset. Rin loves being around me but maybe it was because Kagura was here. We made our way out to the garden Rin following slowly behind Kagura and I.

"Come on Rin." I said. She sped up a little but the slowed down. I soon got tired of her, grabbing her arm I pulled her with us. She started to cry.

"Stop! Rin wants Mizuki." She cried. I sighed and was about to call Mizuki until Kagura stopped me. She had a displeased look on her face.

"Your going to let her have her way?" she asked. I nodded. Rin always had her way ever since I adopted her. "Mi'lord, you need to learn to say no." she opened her fan and started fanning herself. I looked at Rin who was sitting on the ground crying.

"Rin get up and stop this." I ordered. She stood up, I picked her up and continued to walk. She threw a bigger fit to the point where she started to bite me. I wanted her to stop her tantrum, I wanted to let her have her way but I was afraid if I did Kagura would leave.

"I can tell you don't discipline her enough." Kagura said. Rin had never been bad enough for me to have to discipline her.

"She never causes trouble." I replied. Rin scratched my face still throwing her tantrum. Kagura turned around and looked at her.

"Now that's enough Rin! There will be no more of that young lady!" she yelled. Rin stopped and calmed down. She stayed quiet and stopped kicking. But afterwhile I noticed she was shaking, like she was scared.

"Its alright Rin." I soothed. She nodded. After a while I put her down, she started to cry again. She wanted to be in my arms. Rin wasn't afraid of Kagura she was afraid of losing me. We ran into Mizuki, hiroshi and Inuyasha. Rin ran off to be with them, Hiroshi picked her up and spun her around. Rin giggled in amusement which I found quite irritating. He then started to toss her up and down. I got a little nervous but didn't show it. If he drops her I swear it would be the end of his life.

"Hiroshi that was fun do it again." She clapped.

"Do not do that again." I growled. Kagura led me past them and we continued our walk.

"Hey I think Sesshomaru is jealous of you." I heard Inuyasha say. As if I was jealous of him. Rin does admired him but she admires me more and it will stay that way. I sighed. For now I just want to focus my attention all on Kagura, she was such a nice kind woman and how she handled Rin amazed me. Maybe she is the woman I've been looking for.

"Its such a nice day, isn't it your highness?" she asked looking up at the Sakura trees.

"Yes it is and please call me Sesshomaru." I replied. She blushed.

"Then you must call me Kagura." She replied. I nodded and smiled. The rest of the afternoon Kagura and I spent it talking about whatever came to mind. By the end of the day, I was completely in love with Kagura. I knew I wanted her to be my mate for sure.

******* I wasn't sure about this chapter. I had no idea what was going to happen so I just started writing.******
