- - Kagome,,s POV - -


I'm going to go talk to Mama today. It was morning when I woke, surrounded by
Sesshomarus arms. I blinked several times, then turned to face my mate. Sesshomaru wasnt
awake yet. I took a minute to admire the peace expressed in his features. I raised my hand to
brush a strand of his silver hair away from his face. When I tucked the hair behind his pointed
ear, he blinked open his eyes. The corners of his lips turned up, smiling softly at me. I rested my
forehead against his and answered his small smile with one of my own.


He really is beautiful. When we were both fully awake, he whispered to me, "Kagome,
we need to get ready soon. Would you like to bathe with me?"


I nodded and blushed, knowing we wouldnt just be bathing if we were together. He led
me to the bath, stripped me of my nightgown, and slid me into the water. He undressed and slid
in beside me. Sesshomaru placed me on his lap and poured water over my head. He massaged
shampoo into my head. When he rinsed out the shampoo in my hair, he started washing my
body. I moaned when he reached my back. He slowly rinsed off the soap. During the process, he
managed to rub his arm against my breasts. I thought only of the feel of his skin on mine.

I leaned back against him and we slid together, my back to his chest. His head ducked to
kiss the back of my neck. I shivered. It felt heavenly. He kissed his way up my neck. When he
reached my lips, he only hovered above my own. I leaned towards his lips, hoping to close the
distance. But he only drew away, chuckling lowly at my desire. Sesshomaru, you can be taunted
just as easily as I can. You just don't want to know that you can be taunted. Well, I'll show you
that I can taunt you as easily as you do me.


I began to wash his body, much as he did my own. My hands slid down past his waist and
stroked his delicate skin softly. Then my hands slid down his thighs and around to grip his tight
butt. I leaned forward and pressed a kiss against his nipple. He growled, but I did nothing else. I
rinsed his skin of the soap and shampooed his hair. His long hair felt like silk on my fingers. I
knotted my fingers in with his hair and sank low, trailing my lips over his body on the way
down. His perfectly sculpted chest, then around his body to his back, tracing the curve that was
his spine. Then back around, on the way down his navel. He moaned. Before I touched his
delicate skin, I stopped and headed back up his body. I grinned wickedly, seeing his expression
that was a cross between need, desire, and despair. He knew I wasnt going to give him anything.
I was just taunting him. He growled.

He grabbed my arms and pulled me closer, preparing to do something other than taunting.

"Nuh uh. We have to go see my mom sometime today, and Id like to have a while to talk
to her. That means leaving soon."

He growled louder, but stopped. "You, my mate, are one devious little woman."

"Why thank you, Sesshy. I try, I really do." My grin widened.

So, we got out of the bath and put on traveling clothes. Then, we headed to the garden
and he picked me up into his arms and flew me away, heading to the well. On the other side of
the well, I walked towards my house and yelled, "Mama! Gramps! Souta! Im home!"

My mom walked out of the door, having to twist to avoid the flying bullet that was my
brother. Souta landed hard on me, almost knocking me over with the force of his embrace.
Gramps stood behind my mom. "Souta, I think you can let her go now," said my mom calmly.

Souta blushed and drew away. Sesshomaru, who had stepped aside to permit Souta to hug
me, put his arm around my waist and guided me forward. My mom and family walked back into
the house. We followed them. "So, what brings you here, Kagome?"


"I wanted to talk to you about some things." Mama nodded and drew me away, glaring at
Souta, who tried to follow. We headed to the Goshinboku tree and sat down.

"So, is he treating you all right?"

"Of course, Mama!"

"Okay. So this isnt about how hes treating you. Does this have anything to do with you
being youkai?" I shook my head enthusiastically. "Good. If you want to know anything, please
ask me! So what did you want to talk about?"

"Ummm..... Sesshomaru says my mating season is coming soon."

"And you want to know my opinion about having a child, correct?" I nodded, and she
continued, "Do you think you are ready to have another child?"

"I dont know. Thats what Im confused about."

"Okay. Would Shippou be angry or jealous if you had another child?"

"No, he wouldnt. He would actually be happy."

"And what does Sesshomaru want?"

"He says hell support my decision whatever I decide. I think that the other lords will put
pressure on him once they all know that he is mated with me. And he would make a fantastic
father! But I dont know if Im ready. I dont know if I would be a good mother for a child of our
own. Would I be too nice, or too harsh? I just . . . question if I would do everything correctly for
a baby."


"Oh, Kagome!" Mama leaned forward and held me against her chest. "I had the same
doubts when I thought about being a mother. And look how you turned out! You would be an
amazing mother. And youre already a mother to Shippou. Stop worrying about being a good
mother. Its just a question of if youre ready to be a mother."

I nodded and answered slowly, "I think that I would be ready . . . if I had more time to get
to know Sesshomaru better. I mean, I love him terribly, but I really havent known him that long
at all!"

"So, ask Sesshomaru to spend some time with you alone before your mating season. Get
to know him. And then make your decision. Alright?"

I nodded into her chest and the tears started to spill out. I hugged her close. And I planned
to do just as she said. After a while she leaned back and stared into my eyes.

"Oh, my Kagome. Youve grown up so much! I remember when you were born, and
when you first went to school, and when you first went through the well. And falling in love with
Sesshomaru, and now thinking about children. . . . are you two getting married here? Ive always
dreamed of you, in a beautiful white dress, walking down the aisle. But, of course, you are
already mated, which is married by youkai custom, but you were raised as a human."

I shook my head and thought about it. I'd like that. Getting married to Sesshomaru.
Feeling like a princesss, with everyone's attention on me and my white dress. Looking down the
aisle and seeing my mother, my brother, Gramps, and my friends. And then the man I will love
forever.

Mama and I talked about Shippous latest behavior and about Sango and Mirokus
relationship. After a while, we headed back inside. Sesshomaru was playing a video game with
Souta. He was almost winning. I expect, if this hadnt been the first time he had ever played this
game, he would be winning by a lot against my brother. I stood watching him for a while, but
then gave up and helped Mama prepare dinner. The rest of the day went smoothly. Sesshomaru

and I fell asleep in my bed. Or, at least, I fell asleep. I wasnt sure about Sesshomaru, seeing how
I fell asleep as soon as my head touched the pillows. It had been an emotionally stressing day.
