A/N: I did this from a library, so I do not have my own internet back yet. I will be getting it soon if everything works out according to my plan. I will continue to read your reviews through my phone so I hope that I receive many so that I can update often when I finally get my internet back.
Cheers!

Aftermath
Kouga was anxiously waiting for Inuyasha's decision. He was about to go crazy because he wanted to be able to meet his daughter, his child. For all he knows, she would be the only child he would ever get with the way Kagome was acting. It was becoming almost much than he could bear. His tribe was pushing for children and if not then they were going to invoke the ritual. Should that happen, both he and Kagome would suffer. He did not want that, merely being mated to the girl was enough suffering for him.
Inuyasha had told him the night after the successful defeat of Naraku that he would come to Kouga with his decision within the week. In exactly three hours, that week would be up and the half-inu had yet to show. It was making him worried that the decision the puppy had come to was not the decision he wanted. Kouga peeked at the door once more before deciding to go find Inuyasha instead of waiting for the inu to come find him. Just as he opened the door he found Inuyasha standing on the other side with his arm outstretched to open the door that was no longer there.
"Inuyasha? Can I see her?" Kouga asked impatiently. He really wanted to know his daughter even if it meant sucking up to the half-breed, his mate, and his brother. It was probably the least he could do after not taking the dog's advice with Kagome. Inuyasha just gave the wolf a serene smile that held just a hint of creepy.
"I, my mate, and my brother have talked and they have ultimately decided that the decision lie with me. My decision is that Aiya will know only one father and that is her current one. She has no need for another." Inuyasha stated neutrally. Kouga's whole frame slumped as he heard those words leave Inuyasha lips. The inu-hanyou did not stop talking even though he saw the defeated posture that the ookami lord had taken.
"However, Aiya only has one uncle and there is certainly room for her to have more." Inuyasha smiled at the hopeful expression that the tough, brash Kouga had upon his face. It made him feel as if some of the power that he had lost when Kouga had raped him came back. Kouga was so happy with Inuyasha's allowance for him to see his daughter that he hugged the half-demon. Inuyasha stiffened beneath the grip before reacting and throwing the wimpy wolf through the wall across the room.
"I never said you could touch me!" Inuyasha raged. He did not want that filthy ookami's hands on him ever again. He was being forgiving with letting the wolf see his daughter even if it was not in the capacity that the ookami lord had asked for and the baka was trying to take advantage!
"Sorry," rang from somewhere outside the hole. Inuyasha just hmpfed before leaving, slamming the door shut behind himself.
Kagome could not believe it! Kouga was actually trying to make nice with th-that wretch of an abomination. How could he. He was her mate and though she had let him get away with a lot of things, she would not allow him to get away with that. She was not going to stand by while he dallied with that half and half freak or the spawn that came from it either. Just because she would not give him a child, she did not think that he would go to such lengths to fill the void. Kagome knew what she had to do to get rid of the abomination and its family. She was going to use the Shikon no Tama's wish to get what she wanted and then Inuyasha and the little spawn would no longer be able to destroy her life.
Kagome went to the far edge of the palace walls under the cover of nightfall and took the Shikon no Tama with her. She had everything memorized just the way she wanted to say it and she had the perfect alibi for the time she would be missing as well. She had said that she was during her time and that she was spending a week at the springs to cleanse herself. Kouga had let her go, and a bit too cheerfully at that. When she finally got to her hiding place that she had found a couple of days ago, she settled herself to be completely hidden from the panicked searching that would surely happen after her little wish came true.
Kagome woke up feeling absolutely terrible. She remembered making her wish that Inuyasha and his child would be sent to hell where they belonged, the flash of the jewel as it followed her command, then a terrible pain and nothing but blackness afterwards. She felt achy and sore all over like she had been run over by a bus from her time and she realized that it was also way past morning. She wondered how long she had been out, but did not have time to worry as she was spotted by one of the guards. The guard asked her what had happened as she was a rumpled mess and she gave him a sob story about being attacked by some creature the night before. The guard, a neko demon, picked her up bridle style and carried her to the infirmary while informing another guard to be on the lookout for the creature.
The healer looked Kagome over and said that there was no real damage and that she should be thankful because she seemed to be about a month along. When Kagome had asked what she meant, the healer went on to explain.
"Your pregnant miko-san and about a month along."
"I can't be pregnant though, I had my monthly."
"It is quite normal for some human females to experience some bleeding, known as spotting, while pregnant. Though I have not heard of it happening so early in a pregnancy before. I will have to have someone fetch a human healer to continue with your care as I do not know enough about humans." The healer left Kagome to think about what she had said. Kagome had only one idea of how she could be pregnant with avoiding her periods and the little pills she had been taking behind Kouga's back. How it could have happened she had no idea, but she did know that she was going to get rid of the fetus before Kouga found out about it. She was not ready to be a mother, never wanted to be a mother, and she was never going to be one.
