A tragic prophecy unfolded
"What have you done?"
Seshoumaru stared back at his parents stubbornly.
"This Seshoumaru has decided that he will keep the human. It is now my pack."
His father growled, "It is a filthy human! I will not allow this."
Seshouamru's golden gaze hardened, "I will protect it at all costs."
The Lady of the Western Lands looked carefully at her son. There was something different about his aura.
Her eyes widened, as something hit her.
"Son, show me the human."
"You will not harm it?"
She sighed, "You have my word, it will not be harmed."
Ignoring his father's growl, Seshoaumru walked over to his mother, and gently handed her the baby.
The mother stared at the sleeping child. Standing up, she held the babe gently in her arms, and flared her aura.
The child did not awaken.
Her eyes narrowed, amd she flared her aura again.
The child did not so much as twitch. On a closer look, she noticed the child's aura. It was golden, mixed with tendrils of blue. Her son's aura was protecting the child.
She pushed her face nearer to that of the child's and stared. At that very instant, the child opened it's blue eyes and looked back. The staring contest continued for a few seconds till Lady InuKimi, sighed.
"Take her."
Seshoumaru took the baby from his mother.
His mother sat down in her chair, "You may keep your female, Seshoumaru, but understand this. This child is very powerful. I do not approve of your claim on her, however, I cannot harm her, for her death will cause yours."
Inu no Taisho scowled, "So he has marked her?"
His mate nodded wearily, "The child will have to be protected at all costs. She is now our son's weakness. If she dies, he dies."
"Go to your chambers, son."
Seshoumaru nodded and bowed, before exiting the room with his charge.
As soon as he was out of hearing range, the Inno Taisho murmered, "What did you mean, that she is powerful? I coulkd sense no aura from her."
His mate stood up, and wallked over to the windows, looking out, "That is because Seshoumaru's aura is concealing the child's. Her aura is golden.
Her mate's eyes widened.
"That is not possible. There still two generations to pass before that person is to come."
His mate rubbed a hand over her beautiful face, "The prophecy will come to pass and our son will carry a heavy burden."
She didn't say the rest. Because they both knew what was to happen now. Inevitably, her mate would betray her. And she could do nothing to stop it...
