Love Taste Bittersweet Under Julys Moon

by brandypandyxxx

For reason unknown she was gone, and he was left with a small infant who grew to be unlike any other. But as she turned into a woman, she wonders about her mother, but will he be able to give her the answers she seeks? Will he allow himself to go back and remember the night their daughter was conceived? Why did she leave and will she ever return? Love can be bittersweet.

17. Chapter 17

Kagome found him in what she assumed was a study, so much for her plan to stay away from him.

"Are you going soft?" She stood in the doorway,

"Woman I have never been soft in my life."

She blushed and quickly walked to the window,

"Something wrong Miko."

"It's hot in here, and I'm not used to layers."

"So remove them."

Kagome looked down into the gardens where her daughter and Shippo now stood, hand in hand, she smiled, she was so happy for her daughter "Things seem to be happening so fast, and I just got here" Another day, she thought immortality would be slow instead it seemed very fast.

"Hn"

She had this look in her eyes, and he could not make out what it was as she looked down at her daughter "We really did make the most beautiful thing ever didn't we."

"Hn" He didn't take his eyes off her,

"Still so hard to believe" She placed her hand on her tummy "It seemed not so long ago she was in here."

It wasn't fair, he didn't get to see it, or feel it, he felt cheated.

"Time is so mean to me, what did I ever do to it, she should be a toddler."

He could not help but smirk,

"Do you think she would be happy to have a sibling?"

"Why do you ask Miko?"

"Oh I don't know, you are your brother aren't exactly pals."

"She wishes for a brother."

Kagome looked back a him "So why haven't you given her one, its been 16 years for you if you can knock me up Id think you would have no problems."

His golden eyes latched on to hers; he didn't like this wall she had up.

"Iv had no desire."

"But I thought you said Inu's like pregnancy if you missed out on mine wouldn't that like annoy you?"

"Indeed" Didn't he already tell her so?

She could not hold his glare, and so she looked down "Hey Sesshomaru."

"Hn?"

"Is kissing allowed in courting?"

He stood quickly, and she laughed "I was only teasing."

"Kagome" He warned,

She stopped laughing "You can't get mad, you tricked me with fruit and knocked me up at her age."

"Kagome" He snapped,

"Sorry" She didn't know why she was acting like this, she pushed away from the window, she couldn't do this, sit here and pretend, they were both stepping on eggshells.

She went to the door, and the bowed "My Lord."

He wanted to tell her to stop that, but she was already gone.

It was going to the be a restless night for him.
