Chapter 3
"How's he doing?" Kagome asked, walking into the den.
"Fine. The attack wasn't strong enough. He should heal within the next few days." Hokkaku said.
Kagome smiled, and gently touched Koga's face. He looked so peaceful sleeping.
"Thank you, Koga. For always saving me." Kagome whispered.
Her and the other tribe members walked out of the den and near the fire that they started.
"So…you and Koga? Huh?" One of the members chuckled, nudging Kagome.
"Yup." Kagome answered happily.
"What happened yesterday? When Koga ran out of here, he looked more worried than usual…" Ginta said.
"It was nothing; just issues with Inuyasha." Kagome sighed, holding her legs to her chest.
"Oh…" the whole tribe said at once.
"So, what's going to happen with you and Koga?" Hokkaku asked.
"Well….he asked me to marry him." Kagome blushed.
"What does marry mean?" Ginta asked.
Kagome giggled, "He asked me to be the Queen of the tribe…"
"WHAT DID YA SAY?!" Ginta and Hokkaku asked at once.
Kagome nodded. The whole tribe cheered and lifted Kagome up on their shoulders, praising their new queen. Kagome laughed hard, they were really happy that Koga had finally found a queen that loved him. They carried her around the fire several times, and finally put her down. The wolves came over and licked Kagome on the face over and over again. She laughed and petted the wolves, showing them thanks.
Koga woke up to darkness surrounding him; he reached over to his side and noticed that nobody was lying next to him. He immediately sat up and looked around, he saw a trickling orange, red light in the distance on top of the hill. He got up and grunted. That damned Inutrasha. He growled. Koga slowly walked over to the top of the hill, and watched what was going on.
"Do you love him?" Hokkaku asked.
"Of course I love him," Kagome blushed. "I've always loved him, from when we first met. There was something different about him; even though it annoyed me a bit when he called me 'his woman' he cared for me. When he could he'd keep me out of danger and make sure I was safe." Kagome smiled, hugging her knees to her chest.
Koga was sneaking up behind Kagome, and the tribe quietly snickered. He put his finger to his lips to remind them to keep quiet. The tribe kept talking to Kagome as if nothing was happening; asking her if she's ready to be a queen.
"So…? You've always loved me?" Koga asked, quickly wrapping his arms around Kagome.
Kagome jumped in her spot, "Mhmm."
Koga sat next to his woman, wrapped his arm around her and gave her a kiss on the cheek. The whole tribe and wolves howled as their leader kissed Kagome. He jerked his head in their direction, and they all shut up. Koga wanted Kagome to himself, and obviously the tribe wasn't going to leave them alone. He got up and offered Kagome his hand.
"I want to show you something." Koga said.
Kagome looked over her shoulder and smiled, then took his hand. The tribe once again howled and cheered as Kagome and Koga walked off into the distance.
