Pairings: Sesshoumaru/Inuyasha, Vergil/Dante
W A R N I N G: This is about male pregnancy (possibly) and male/male
relationships which includes incest. I’m letting you know
now what the relationships WILL contain. So, if you are AGAINST
such pairings, please find something else more to your liking, you have been
warned.

Not beta-read
thanks to
overcome their loss but who’s not to say that another opportunity won’t come
their way again? And here is the chapter that you’ve been wanting since your
review. Enjoy!
– I’m glad that you like the chapter even though it was a bit of a tear jerker,
but to make up for all the tissue grabbing here is the chapter with Inuyasha
and Kagome. Will sparks fly? Read on to find out.
– Thank you! I thought that it would be a good time for Sesshoumaru to show
some of his other qualities than being an outright bastard all the time and as
you can see he’s a puppy at heart. Yes, you are right about them having more,
when? Um, I’m not to sure but it will happen. And yes again, Inuyasha’s desire
to have pups for his brother brought about him conceiving. Remember what Vergil
said, “It means monk for those who
desire children will be able to conceive, carry, and birth them. Of course it
only applies to male half-demons with male lovers
thing that the actual mating do was up Inuyasha’s
station as the prince’s consort, but of course Toga needs to have a formal
ceremony to inform the other Inu royals of
Sesshoumaru’s mating. Will that happen? Maybe, my muses have completely taken
over and are running amuck with my thoughts, so we’ll see, and to those who
have read and didn’t review thank you for reading thus far. I hoped you enjoyed
it
Inuyasha recovers from the death of his and Sesshoumaru’s pups, now he
confronts Kagome about his decision to mate with his half-brother.
Chapter
13: Tradition
Another
week passed before Sesshoumaru allowed Inuyasha out of their bedchambers. They
had several visits from Sango, Miroku,
and their father, but Kagome refused to see them. Her excuse was ‘
twisted monster.’ It hurt Inuyasha to know that his friend was unhappy
about him being with his brother but she would have to live with it.
The
twins also made an appearance. Inuyasha still had a hard time distinguishing
between them other then Vergil with cropped upright hair and Dante with limp
hair.
But
that didn’t last long once they started sparring. They were virtually
identical. Even their scent couldn’t point out who was who since they were
twins and mates. Vergil and Dante’s
scent intermingled, confusing all of them.
The Inus and humans couldn’t relay on the color
of their clothes as they found out that the brothers love to see if any one
notice that they were talking with Vergil and not Dante and vice versa.
Sango blushes every time she sees one of them (she was one of many
victims during their clothes swapping). Inuyasha laughed at the memory as he
repositioned himself in the tall tree over looking the training grounds. He
patted the softness of his stomach gently, wondering what it would have been
like to care for his pups. He knew without a doubt that Sesshoumaru would have
been a wonderful father. The icy demon was very protective if by his being
incapacitated was any indication to go by.
And mentioning of the demon slayer.
had warned him yesterday that Kagome was highly irate about him getting with
child by Sesshoumaru and why he won’t break the bond. Inuyasha shook his head
ruefully. She couldn’t be with him – end of story.
“INUYASHA!”
Oh,
boy, she found him.
“Yeah,
Kagome?” he answered.
“We
need to talk.”
In
one fluid motion, Inuyasha jumped from his perch as graceful as he could and
landed directly in front of her. Kagome was fascinated by her friend’s purple
markings on his cheeks and went to touch them. She briefly wondered if the
jagged stripes felt different to the touch like his velvet covered ears or
would they feel the same as the rest of Inuyasha’s soothed face.
But
she never got to find out. The inu-hanyou growled at
the approaching hand. Kagome quickly pulled it back.
/
“Sesshoumaru’s got you under a spell or something.”
(Scoffs)
“No, he doesn’t.”
“You’re
not acting normal and I know you wouldn’t willingly let your brother do those
things to you.”
Kagome
cheeks burned brightly.
He
needed to set Kagome straight about his relationship with his brother.
“Listen,
Kagome, demon society works differently from Humans. Even though it’s frown
upon family members mating each other in you time – it is not here for demons.
We’re not prone to illness and other diseases humans get when they mate
siblings. If anything it keeps the bloodline pure – that’s how we’re able to
identify each other and make strong alliances.
“Yes,
it is rare that siblings mate especially when the sex is the same. Usually,
forth and so on. Father would have severed our bond had it not been for me
conceiving. Pups are the life line of our clans, Kagome, and I’m sorry that you
don’t understand it, but I’m not leaving Sesshoumaru – not for you, my Father,
or the Inu clan. I would be exiled first before
giving up my claim on him.” /And my
heart/ he added silently.
He
could see tears spilling from her brown eyes.
“I
thought…I thought you love me, Inuyasha, what happened?” she asked tearfully.
“I
do, but as a sister. You, Sango, Miroku,
and even that tired mutt, Kouga are part of my pack.
I care for you guys but there was nothing between us, Kagome. When I reached my
Majority my youkai searched for another
Although
Kouga dumped him he wasn’t about to embarrass himself
and tell her that.
“So,
spreading your legs for your
Kagome knew it was a cheap shot to take but she had to dissuade him somehow.
“I’m
a half-breed. No one wants to be mated to a mutt. I got fuckin’
lucky that Sesshoumaru’s youkai called out to mine –
otherwise I would be alone. Don’t you get it? I can not mate a human. My
“A what?” Kagome was thrown for a loop.
“A
Beta, a bitch – take it any damn way you like. I maybe an Alpha with you and the
others but as far as mating goes I’m the weaker of the pair,” Inuyasha
explained ears drooping at the admittance of be being submissive.
This
was what Kagome gapped at; never in her wildest dreams that Inuyasha was to be
had in such a way. No one bothered to explain how youkais
sought out other youkais. She understood now –
Inuyasha couldn’t be with her – she wasn’t a demon. Her spiritual aura was
still maturing. She was still maturing. Kagome was no where near being an adult
whilst Inuyasha had all ready passed his majority, which meant that he should
had mated a century ago.
That
didn’t even make any sense. What prevented Sesshoumaru from claiming Inuyasha
when he first hit his Majority? Or for that matter, why didn’t Sesshoumaru take
a mate when he was mature enough to so? These were answers that she needed to
know and was going to know.
Her
shoulders sagged. It was useless to try to go against the nature of things. She
realizes that now about Dante and Vergil. Although they were half-demons they
still followed age old mating rites. There was no way to go against millennium
of innate instinct.
The
hanyou blinked questioningly as he found himself with
a handful of Kagome, crying on his chest saying how sorry she was for being
selfish. He hugged her as a mother would comport her child. Inuyasha whispered
inconsequential nonsense in her ear to calm her, after all she was part of his
pack and he had to make sure she was taken care of.
Her
immobility indicated to Inuyasha that she cried herself to sleep. With nothing
else better to do, he settled them under the tree that he was sitting in
earlier. He laid Kagome next to him on the grass as he leaned back against the
base of the tree.
Closing
his eyes, Inuyasha smiled. Their friendship would survive but they were going
to have to rebuild the trust that was thrown away because Kagome felt betrayed
but him mating Sesshoumaru. It might not be how it was before all of this but
at least they were still friends.
Golden
eyes drifted closed unaware of the calamity going on at the palace.
A/N:
Was their confrontation explosive enough? I hope so. Inuyasha had to make
Kagome comprehend that she could never be with him. So, what’s going on now
that order and peace finally been obtained? Are Dante and Vergil causing
trouble again? Don’t know. Well, to find out, stayed tuned for the next
chapter.
Nemesis
“This
is an outrage! Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha did not seek a formal approval to bond.
Therefore without any pups the union between them is void.”
Toga
frowned. “No, they did not, but special circumstances had led me to make my
decision as such. Besides, what proof do you have that would ensure heirs had
Sesshoumaru mated your son?”
“Kagura.”
