Sesshoumaru Present

If you are reading this chapter you skipped the one before this one. I have posted both remaining chapters to finish this story. Please go and read chapter 13 so you know what is going on.

Chapter 14

Kagome was slowly waking up from her force slumber. She had a terrible headache as she opened her eyes. She expected to be in a jail cell, but to her surprise she was back in Sesshoumaru’s apartment.

She moved as she felt the tightening of arms around her body as she was pulled into a nice warm chest. To her surprise, she felt Sesshoumaru behind her as he was looking for his mark. He started licking it as she relaxed in his hold. Her head still hurt, but he was distracting her from it at the moment.

Sesshoumaru could feel when his mate woke. He could feel her pain as he looked for his mark to soothe her. His tongue came out as he gently caressed the area. He felt her relax in his arms as he continued with his attention. He knew that he needed to speak to her as he sat up in bed and brought her into his lap.

He held her close to his chest as his arms and tails were wrapped around her body. He purred gently as he asked, “Kagome, how are you feeling?”

Kagome, hearing his question, answered, “I have a tremendous headache, but other than that I’m fine.”

“Why did you leave this morning? Why did you have to go to the shrine? You could have waited until I returned and I would have taken you there.” Sesshoumaru noticed that his mate was being a little distant from him. She was aloof as he tried to get her to talk to him.

Kagome heard his words as she tried to get up. He held on to her as she turned her body away from him. She knew that he did not want her any more for what she did. ‘Why can’t he just let me go?’ Her heart was broken as she said, “I was going to leave. I know that I have shamed you. I acted inappropriately at the presentation by killing those youkai. I could not control my temper and I killed them in the name of a title that I have refused to use since the day it was given to me.

“But I couldn’t help myself. I started to see what they were planning to do, and when I heard that you were just going to let them leave the country I couldn’t let you do that. They would have come back to these lands and ravished it with their new found army. Hundreds of humans and youkai would have lost their lives if they lived. So, I took it upon myself to kill them to make sure that everyone stayed safe, but I have shamed you with my actions.”

Sesshoumaru heard her words as he turned her around so he could look at her. He pulled her chin up, stating, “You did not shame me; as a matter of fact you honored me. I would have killed them myself if I have known what you saw. When you showed us everything that they were planning, I was about to attack them myself when I noticed that you were dealing with the situation. It was within your right to punish them for their actions.

“In my world the female must prove to all that she is powerful enough to be my mate. She must act accordingly and demand respect. By you killing those fools, you showed everyone that I have chosen well, you are powerful, but most of all you are my match and my mate. I will never turn you away because of something like that. I do love you Kagome, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you.”

Kagome thought that she would never hear that one word come out of his mouth. He loved her, he truly loved her as her heart leaped with joy. She threw herself into his chest as they both landed on the bed with her on top and Sesshoumaru pinned under her. She kissed her mate senseless as she growled her contentment.

-------Start of Lemon-------

Sesshoumaru had his arms wrapped around his mate as their lips were locked in a passionate kiss. He picked up on her arousal as the kiss turned heated. Then, to his surprise, he lost his mate as she moved to the other side of the bed.

He rolled over as he saw his little vixen. She was suddenly in a playful mood and he was in the mood to play. He growled his pleasure as he started to move on all fours towards his mate.

Kagome saw her mate coming towards her as he crawled across the bed. Seeing him in that position was very sexy as she licked her lips. Her eyes were turning red with her desire as she moved to the other side of the bed when he pounced.

Sesshoumaru missed capturing his female as she moved again. He looked as he saw her getting up on her knees as she arched her back. There was this wonderful scent coming from her as his inner beast started to react to it. He moved fast as he held her in his arms, pulling her body flush with his, feeling the heat of her flesh.

He nipped her neck as his hands were moving everywhere. He leaned her body back as he spread her knees. Her breasts were in the air as he lashed on to a nipple and began to suckle. He heard her moan in pleasure as he continued his attention; one of his hands was going down as he found her sweet lips. She was so wet for him, as he pushed two of his fingers into her wet folds.

He began to push into her body as he rocked her form from the force of his thrust. He watched as his finger disappeared into her body, going deeper. He moved as he took her other nipple into his mouth and continued to go deeper. Soon he felt her coming to her end as he stopped what he was doing. He did not want her to release just yet as he then moved down and pulled her knees up.

He spread her wide as he started to drink all of the juices that her body was producing. She tasted heavenly as his nice warm tongue started to move in and out of her body. He opened her lower lips as his fingers found heaven once more. He then began to move as his mouth continued to caress her clit.

Sesshoumaru found that his mate was losing control over her body as she orgasm hard. It was a feeling that Kagome could not describe as she saw white specks in front of her eyes. She was breathing hard as she was flipped onto her hands and knees. She felt Sesshoumaru on top of her. His manhood was now at her entrance as he was slowly entering her body.

Oh Kami did that ever feel good to her senses. She started to move with Sesshoumaru as he was picking up speed. He was not moving fast enough for her as she screamed, “Oh Kami Sesshoumaru! Harder, faster, just fuck me harder!”

Hearing his mate talking like this turned Sesshoumaru on even more as he gave her what she wanted. When she tried to move away from him, Sesshoumaru’s beast thought that she was trying to leave as he grabbed her by the shoulder with his fangs. He subdued her as she was underneath him with her butt in the air. He was pounding his full length into her when he started to pick up this wonderful aroma coming from her body.

Sesshoumaru’s beast caught the scent as he started to react to it. His aura grew in power as he also grew in size. His length got longer as he was now moving even faster to meet his end. His mate was close to releasing, as he got ready.

Kagome screamed as she finally came to her end. Her body glowing a beautiful blue as their powers mixed together as one. Sesshoumaru howled his completion as the head of his manhood grew in size. He was now locked with his female as he heard Kagome cry out in pain. He was filling her womb with his fertile seed as he held her in place.

Kagome felt when she reached her peak as she screamed her joy, her mate came right after her but instead of getting smaller like he did before he got larger as he howled. She started to feel him grow inside her body as he stretched her even more. It hurt as she cried out in pain and tried to move away. But he was holding her still in his arms preventing her from leaving.

She was tired as the tears kept coming down her cheeks while she closed her eyes. She felt when Sesshoumaru moved as he rolled to his side and took her with him. He started to rub her stomach as it soothed her. The pain she was feeling was slowly going away as her body relaxed in his arms.

Sesshoumaru knew that he was locked with his female. She was in pain as he did everything in his power to sooth her. It worked as her body started to relax while he wrapped his body around hers. He was spooning her from behind as he wrapped his arms around her body and his tails came up to keep them warm. He nuzzled her in her neck as he calmed from their mating and fell asleep. He knew it was going to take some time for them to separate.

-------End of Lemon-------

The next morning Kagome woke up in a happy mood. She was playful again as she had fun with her mate. She brought out a part of him that he never thought he would ever see again. He enjoyed her playfulness and he could finally act the way he wanted. He did not have to be the heir of the lands. He could just be Sesshoumaru and his mate loved it.

Then all too soon he had to tell her that they had to go meet his father this morning. He told her what happened at the shrine and what the humans wanted to do to her. Her playful mood was quickly subdued, he hated to see her like this. He loved that playful side of hers, the one that would light up her eyes and bring a beautiful smile to her face.

They had a wonderful night together, it was a night of passion as she would prance around the room with nothing on and she would tease him for his stoic ways. He had found out that she was highly ticklish as he found all the area where she was.

They got dressed as they got ready to leave. He has not heard his mate say a word since her told her what they needed to do. They ate their meal and when they were done he form his orb of light and took off toward the city.

Sesshoumaru could feel the masses of people that were at the courthouse. He landed on the roof of the building as he looked out and saw that there must have been over 400 human and youkai alike standing there waiting for the trial to commence.

Sesshoumaru had his arm wrapped around his mate as they both walked inside. He had a devil of a time convincing his mate to not wear her concealment spell. She needed to be herself and hiding under an illusion was not what he wanted from her. She finally agreed to his desire, as she walked silently by his side. They walked downstairs as they entered a room that was setup for them.

Sesshoumaru sat with his mate as he held her in his arms. He could feel how nervous she was, as he tried to calm her down. When the court was ready to start the trial, the bailiff came and got them. The couple walked anxiously into the youkai court.

Kagome noticed Sesshoumaru’s father sitting up on the bench. They approached and sat down at the table on the left hand side of the room. Kagome looked over and saw the human lawyers sitting there waiting for the trial to start. She also noticed that the city hospital administrators were also there.

Kagome swallowed hard, ‘All this because I use my powers to heal the sick, and cure those with no hope of living a normal life?’ She shook her head to clear it and waited.

She was hoping that it did not come down to this, but if this is the way the city and those hospital administrators wanted it, then so be it. Kagome sat up straighter, squared her shoulders, and held her head high. She did not do anything wrong. She just studied her grandfather’s ancient scrolls and used that knowledge to heal the people of the land.

Segumi looked down from his chair and noticed how full the courtroom was. He never knew that this would be such a big public display. He cleared his throat before saying, “I now bring the youkai court to order. Ladies and Gentlemen, we are holding court here today to determine if the human justice system has a valid claim that Lady Kagome has broken any laws. Hitoshi, what are the charges?”

Hitoshi, stood up and stated, “Milord, the charges against Kagome are,” Segumi gave a vicious growl, if the idiot thinks he can disrespect a member of his clan, he had another thing coming.

Hitoshi swallowed hard as he corrected himself, “Excuse me milord, the charges against Lady Kagome are, practicing medicine without a license, giving unregulated drugs to patients, battery, and trying to divert patients from the medical community.”

Segumi raised an eyebrow at the last charge, “Very well present your case, but be warned, I’m not in the mood to hear petty complaints about how your doctors are losing money because their patients are leaving them to go to someone that takes away their pain and cures them.”

Hitoshi nodded acknowledging his word, “Yes milord, I understand.” As the city began it case against Kagome. “For the last four years we have been trying to find the person who was healing the sick in the city. Many patients with terminal illnesses have left the care of their primary provider to go seek this ‘Doctor’ that was treating patients and proclaiming to cure them of their illnesses.

“In fact we have countless of reports that people were treated with medicine that was given to them, and then later had to go to the hospital because the remedy didn’t work.”

Segumi could smell the lies coming from this fool as he said, “Hitoshi, what proof do you have that these people have seen Kagome? Up until this point your people have not been able to find the one responsible for treating the sick.”

Hitoshi became nervous as he was trying to get everything together. Usually he would have months to get a case ready to present to a judge, but he only had 24 hours in which to present this case, and truly he had no idea what he was working with.

He found a note that he scribbled this morning as he cleared his throat and proceeded, “Milord, I have an eye witness that says that Lady Kagome was treating the injuries of a drive by shooting yesterday morning. The undercover officer observed Lady Kagome mixing and putting medicine on wounds, giving the individuals something to drink, and then bandaging them up.

“I present to you exhibit A, this was taken from the shrine yesterday morning and the undercover officer observed Lady Kagome putting a drop of this in everything she mixed or gave to the patients.

“Furthermore, it is against the law to practice medicine without a license. It is civil fraud to represent herself as a Doctor. The people deserve to see someone who is qualified to treat them appropriately in a protective environment, not in some shrine where their illnesses could spread to others in the city.”

Kagome was sitting back listening to what this fool was saying. Her anger was growing by the minute when he made her out to be a liar and a cheat. Then they brought out the medicine that she made out of the special rose she picked for Sesshoumaru, as her eyes opened wide.

Kagome had enough of all the accusations as she stood and said, “I object! I never presented myself as a doctor. Everyone that came to me for help knew that I was the shrine miko. I did nothing more than help those that your doctors refused to help in the hospitals. They would turn them away for their inability to pay the outrageous prices for your services. Many of these families cannot afford the medical care that they need. So they come to me and I help them.”

Segumi understood as he signaled one of his own physicians to go and get the bottle from the ningen.

The youkai doctor walked forward and obtained the bottle, he opened it as he took a sniff of its context. His eyebrow rose as he turned to the little miko and asked, “Lady Kagome, where did you get this herb?”

Kagome will never betray her mate and where she got that petal. “I have been looking for that plant for many years. I was able to locate a small flower and was able to obtain a single petal. That elixir was made from that single petal. It will cure thousands if used correctly.”

Hitoshi was at a loss for what was going on. “Excuse me milord, but what is so important about that elixir? Our analyses show that it doesn’t have anything in it that will promote healing.”

Yutaka turned towards the human that was speaking and answered, “Obviously your human scientist never studied the ancient texts left behind by your ancestors. Centuries ago healers or doctors as you like to call them these days, healed with herbs. It was an art that took years to learn, but when learned well they could cure just about anything with them.

“The healers were few and far between. So only those villages with a healer in them survived the diseases that went through the lands. This particular elixir has a very rare herb in it. It has not been seen in over 900 years. To have a small portion of this plant actually in my hand is Kami scent because it will enhance the effects of simple herbs and cure the worst of illnesses.

“Lady Kagome is a miko, she has the knowledge that has been passed down from generations to generations to heal the people using natural herbs.”

Hitoshi still did not understand what the youkai doctor was saying, “I understand what you are saying, but she is just a miko, a shrine maiden, not a healer as you would like to call her. Plus, I don’t understand how this liquid can heal or enhance the affects of simple herbs.

“Furthermore I humbly request that Lady Kagome be handed over to our jurisdiction since this is a human matter and outside the youkai courts jurisdiction.”

Yutaka raised an eyebrow as he stood his ground and said, “Sir, you are confusing the issue here. You claim that Lady Kagome is impersonating a doctor. I say she is a true healer. They are two very different beings.

“A doctor uses science to find out why someone is sick. They order different tests to find out the cause of their illness. You rely on human created drugs to treat your patients and nine times out of ten your treatments don’t work. The body is a very complex piece of equipment. Your viruses mutate when you use one drug to treat it for long periods of time, making your treatment ineffective.

“A healer, like Lady Kagome, seeks to encourage the body, mind, and spirit to operate with ease and in harmony. A healer listens to the people, they don’t only treat the illness that they have but they treat the whole person.

“But Lady Kagome is special, she is a miko, and a powerful one. The one thing that I have noticed is that you don’t know what a miko is.” Yutaka looked at the ningen standing in front of him, as he shook his head no. He smiled and continued, “Let me enlighten you. The miko’s of old were powerful priestesses. They used their spiritual energies to heal the sick. They infused a portion of their powers into the medicine to cure.

“Lady Kagome is such a person. Though you humans cannot see this, we youkai can detect her holy powers. She is the most powerful miko I have ever met. So this little vile of elixir in her hands will cure thousands. Where your modern medicines have failed, her simple methods of the ancient healing art will succeed.”

Yutaka turned to Segumi as he said, “Milord, I recommend that the charges be dismissed, they are unfounded since, one; the Lady is not a doctor but a healer. Healers do not require a license to heal. Just as mothers do not need a license to put a band aid on their child’s wound if they should cut themselves.

“Two, battery, a healer doesn’t need to touch a patient. She can see what is wrong with them and by listening to what their patients are saying, she can determine what the necessary herbs are to make them feel better.

“Thirdly, Lady Kagome has not dispensed any unauthorized drugs to her patients because the last time I checked, teas, ointments, and such are not medicine under the eyes of the law. They are considered over the counter medication and sold freely to the public.

“And lastly, if the human doctors are losing money it is because they became doctors to bleed the people of what little money they have. They don’t cure the sick and they procrastinate in healing the simplest of illnesses. It is our responsibility to make sure that everyone is taken care of and not by those that measure someone’s worth by whether they can pay for their services.”

Hitoshi tried to intervene, but he was cut off by Segumi. “Hitoshi, Yutaka is correct in what he is saying. Your charges are unfounded. Kagome is not a doctor and never proclaimed to be. She never deceived the people. I talked to the ones that were at the shrine yesterday and they are all aware that she is a miko. A miko that they have protected viciously over the years and unless you have more than what you have presented here, I here by order the charges dropped.”

Hitoshi, huffed as he said, “You can’t do that! She is human and should be tried by our courts!”

Kagome had enough as she got up and walked around the table she was sitting at. She approached Segumi as she bowed to him in respect. She then turned around as she closed her eyes and started to concentrate.

Kagome found her innermost powers as she brought them forth. She removed the spell from around the area that allowed the human to see her as a human. Her aura started to grow, as it became a golden color.

The humans in the courtroom all gasped as they saw what Kagome was doing. She was not a human like they all thought, but an Inu youkai.

Kagome’s powers grew as they formed wings on her back, she opened her eyes and they were white. When she spoke, her voice carried to all in the room, “I am the resurrection of the Shikon Miko. Centuries ago, I walked the lands, healing the sick. We all lived in harmony back then and we respected each other. But, now all you think about is how to hurt each other, how to bleed the people for what little they have to live on.

“The children of the city are the ones that are suffering, they are either hurting or starving. They should not be made to suffer so, but they do. As you can see, I’m not a human but youkai. But just because I’m a youkai, it doesn’t mean I won’t treat your illness because you are human. I will help everyone that comes for my aid. No matter who you are.” Kagome let her powers return to her body as she felt strong arms come around her waist. She had made her point to the fools that want her to stop healing. She was tired as she was led out of the courtroom.

Hitoshi was pissed, there was no way that they will be able to prosecute her now. He knew that he did not have a good case against her, but the city and the hospitals wanted him to try. He was packing up his materials, as he was about to leave the room when the demon lord addressed him.

---oOo---

Segumi waited until his son and mate left the courtroom. When they were gone, he turned his attention back to the humans, “Hitoshi, you came here today with a very weak case against Kagome. I see now that I will have to intervene on behave of the humans of the city. I have not meddled in human affairs in a long time, thinking that you will take care of your own, but it’s evident that you won’t. I will be contacting your human government. You will no longer fall under their rules but mine.

“You will all remain under my rule until such time that you all stop fighting among each other and learn to live together. You will all learn to take care of your own and help each other even if it kills you.”

Hitoshi face went white as he heard his words. This was not good, as he was going to dissolve their system of government and come under youkai rule. The humans were in for a big surprise when he did that.

---oOo---

Sesshoumaru took his mate home, as he wanted to spend sometime alone with her. The moment they walked out of the courthouse the pair were surrounded by a multitude of humans and youkai as well. Kagome looked around as she saw the people approaching her. She recognized them from the shrine as they all kneeled in front of her.

The people were surprised to learn that their miko was a youkai. To them, it did not matter because she was their miko, their miko who helped them when they needed help, who cured them when they were sick, and fed them when they were hungry.

Kagome was shocked to see so many people bowing to her. She looked at her mate as Sesshoumaru nodded to her to proceed. She turned back to the people that were kneeling as she said, “Please rise.”

Everyone got up as they waited. The one that spoke yesterday at the shrine stepped forward and asked, “Miko-sama, we came to support you today. We all know that you are a powerful miko. You have always taken care of us and we will not abandon you in your time of need. Have they set you free?”

Kagome was touched by what she heard, “I thank you all for coming, I never knew that I meant so much to all of you. Yes, the charges have been dropped and I will be at the shrine tomorrow morning.”

The crowd cheered their joy as they all left the area and would see their miko in the morning.

Sesshoumaru shook his head as he wrapped his arm around his mate and brought her closer to his body. He formed his orb of light as he went home. He wanted some alone time with his mate and he was determined to get it.

Sesshoumaru and Kagome spent a quiet day at home. It was the first time that they actually relaxed as Kagome continued to ask questions of her mate. “Sesshoumaru, when is your birthday?”

Sesshoumaru raised an eyebrow as he asked, “Why do you want to know when my birthday is? I never celebrate it.”

Kagome huffed as she said, “I have a right to know when you were born, and I don’t care if you celebrate it or not. I don’t celebrate my birthday either, but I would still like to know when it is.”

Sesshoumaru sighed as he stated, “My birthday is two days from now.”

Kagome’s eyes opened wide as she heard his words. She did not have a whole lot of time to do something special for him. She was thinking hard on what she wanted to do when she heard, “Kagome, when is your birthday?”

Sesshoumaru watched as his mate was thinking hard about something. He knew that she was planning something and this was not good. He hated to celebrate his birthday, he thought that it was a waste of time to have a celebration on a day that he became a year older. He thought he would distract her as he asked his question. That had the desired affect as his mate snapped out of her thoughts.

Kagome heard Sesshoumaru’s question as she absentmindedly replied, “Oh my birthday is September 10th.”

Now Sesshoumaru had a few months to plan something special for his mate. He will make sure that she had a wonderful day.

Kagome was sitting there trying to think of something that she could give her mate for his birthday. She was leaning against Sesshoumaru’s side as he started to growl low and deep. She yawned as her eyes were getting heavy and soon she was asleep by his side. She had a very busy day and was extremely tired. His growls soothed her as she fell asleep.

Sesshoumaru could tell that his mate was tired. He also felt that she was not going to sleep anytime soon as she was still deep in thought. His beast started a low and deep growl that was soothing her. Soon he felt when her breathing evened out as she fell asleep.

He reached over and picked her up as he went back to his room. He placed his mate in bed as he crawled in after her and settled down to sleep.

---oOo---

The next morning they both woke up together. They showered together as they made love several times that morning. They were about to dress when Sesshoumaru said, “Kagome, I have something for you.”

Kagome was curious as she saw Sesshoumaru walking into his closet. She heard some noise as he walked out a few minutes later with miko garments for her. Her eyes opened wide when she saw them. They were not the red and white that she wore but blue in color. They were beautiful as she touched the fabric. They were made of silk as she looked at her mate.

Sesshoumaru smiled as he saw his mates inquiring eyes. “These belonged to my mother. She wore these whenever she went out to the people. You will honor me if you will wear them. They are the sign of our house and I can think of no one else who would honor her as much as you can.”

A lone tear left Kagome’s eye as she said, “They are beautiful Sesshoumaru. I would be honored to wear them. I hope that I will do them justice and serve the people the way that she did.”

Kagome took the kimono and put it on. It was a perfect fit as she felt the soft fabric against her skin. This kimono was a little different than her miko garments. The waist of the hakama was lower, the outer haori has vines around the sleeves and neck. There was a crescent moon located on each of the sleeves and one over her heart. It had a golden obi to go along with it as it had a white Inu youkai in the middle of the obi. It was beautiful and perfect.

Sesshoumaru saw his mate in his mother’s old kimono, she looked beautiful in it as they went out to eat their morning meal. When they were done they left his home as he took his mate back to her shrine.

When they got there the people of the city were there waiting for her. They walked towards the gate as they opened them. They all walked to the shrine area where the people gathered to see their miko.

Sesshoumaru noticed when everyone quieted down, as he said, “Kagome, I have something for you.” He reached into his pocket and pulled out a set of keys. He then took her hand as he placed them in her hands and said, “The shrine is now yours. The city does not own it anymore and all the back taxes have been paid for you. The shrine is now open to serve the people of the city and you are their miko.”

Kagome mouth dropped open when she saw a set of keys land in her hand. When she heard what Sesshoumaru said she was shocked. ‘I… I… I have my home back?’ She looked up at her mate as she asked, “You are giving me my home back?”

“No, I’m not giving you your home back. You can call it a mating gift from my father. He will not allow the city to tear down something so sacred to its people and especially something so valuable to you.” Sesshoumaru then turned to all present as he stated, “There will always be someone here to help you all. Soon some of my people will be arriving with food for all of you. We will help you get your lives back and be productive members of society again. I have spoken to my father and we are looking into what is going on in the cities over the lands and I promise you that we will find a solution to everything that is wrong.”

There was a thunderous cheer as the people rejoiced at knowing that the lords of the land were going to help them. For too long the city has turned their backs on their plight. They lived in fear and wanted nothing more than to have a better life for themselves. Many were too sick to afford the medical care that they so desperately needed so they had come to the little miko that helped them as best she could.

Sesshoumaru turned to his mate as he stated, “I will leave you here so you can tend to them. I will be back later to take you home. Kirara will protect you while you are here. If you need me just call for me, I will hear and come to your aid.”

Kagome was so overjoyed that she jumped into his arms and kissed him senseless. When they parted she agreed to wait for his return as she started taking care of the sick.

Sesshoumaru nodded to Kirara as she went after his mate. He trusted her to protect his mate plus she had help. He had youkai guards around the area to make sure she stayed safe. If they let anything happen to her it was their death. He turned as he took off. He needed to get things done at the office before he took time off. He had to give his father enough time to take control of everything from the humans.

Kagome went about her business as she tended to her duties. Her heart was lighter now as she had her home back. True to her mate’s word, help came to the shrine as they had plenty of food to feed them all. They set up a tent on the shrine grounds that will help her tend to the people. She saw many that were hurt or injured as she tended to each of their needs.

By the time Sesshoumaru arrived back at the shrine, the last of the people were leaving the shrine as the night curator took over. The shrine gates were never to be closed again and if there was an emergency they were to call him at once.

Sesshoumaru grabbed his mate as he went home. Kagome looked exhausted as he took her back home for some rest.

---oOo---

The next morning Sesshoumaru woke to an empty bed. He quickly sat up as he looked for his mate. She was not in the room with him as he got out of bed and went looking for her. He was wondering why she would be up so early as he started to pick up this wonderful scent coming from the kitchen.

When he got to the dining room he noticed that the table was beautifully set. The food was on the table as he heard, “Happy birthday mate! I hope you like what I made for breakfast this morning.”

Sesshoumaru was shocked, as he asked, “You made breakfast for me?” He saw as his mate smiled beautifully for him as she nodded her head yes. Sesshoumaru did not know what to say as he sat down to his morning meal. His lovely mate joined him as they both enjoyed the wonderful meal that she prepared that morning.

When they were done, his mate requested that he take her back to the gardens at his ancient home and he was more than willing to do that for her. They spent the day there as she packed lunch for them and they had a romantic lunch together.

The sun was going down as the couple sat on a hill looking at the sunset. Kagome thought that now would be a good time to give him his present. “Sesshoumaru, I do hope that you have enjoyed your birthday. This was the only thing that I could think of that I could give you. I don’t have any money but there is one more present that I have for you.”

Sesshoumaru was shocked to hear this from his mate, “Kagome, you know that you do not have to give me anything. I have everything that I could ever want when I mated you. So you don’t have to give me anything else. I loved what you did for me today. No one has ever done something like this before.”

Kagome smiled as she said, “Oh, I think that you will love this last present love, but you are going to have to wait to see it though.”

Sesshoumaru was confused, he had no idea what she meant by that. He noticed when his mate crawled into his lap as he held her in his arms. He loved holding her as he brought her closer to his chest.

Kagome saw her chance as she whispered into his ear, “My gift to you is the greatest gift of all mate, I’m pregnant.”

Sesshoumaru froze when he heard her words. He pulled her away from his chest as he looked at her. She was smiling at him as they rolled and he was on top of her. He stuck his nose on her stomach as he sniffed, there was a definite change in her scent. He then put his ear on her stomach as he listened. There, he heard what he was looking for, there was a soft but strong heartbeat. His mate was pupped.

Sesshoumaru raised his head as he howled into the night. It was a call far and wide telling everyone that his mate was carrying his pup. He was the happiest youkai on the planet as he picked his mate up and kissed her with such passion that he left her breathless.

He knew that he had to pull away when she needed air. He brought her closer to his chest as he whispered, “Thank you! Thank you! You have given me the ultimate gift my mate. We will finally have a family of our own.”

Kagome was happy that he was happy. She wanted a family, as a matter of fact she wants a big family. She was finally happy in her life and Sesshoumaru was a big part of it.

They kissed again as they stayed in the gardens that belonged to his mother and made love for the rest of the night.

Sesshoumaru’s mother was watching her son from the moon. She was finally happy that her son got the life that he has been dreaming of. His pup will grow strong and powerful, and between the two of them they will protect the lands from everything that is to come. She sent her beam of light down to her son as it touched the pup in the little miko’s womb. It was a blessing that she gave it to keep it strong and protected. She knew that the pup would be loved like no other. She was happy that Sesshoumaru loved his present.

Then End… or is it????

This is the end to my story. This is what happens when a one shot goes out of control with so many ideas. I do hope that you have enjoyed my short story. This is the shortest story that I have written by far.

But, this is the first story that I have left opened, so if I wanted to do a continuation of this story then I could do it. But, at this time I have no new ideas for it. Maybe in the future I will, but not now.

Thank you all for reading my story. There are still more stories to come so look for my next story sometime soon. I’m close to finishing 3 of them but have not as of yet.

Until the next story!

Ja ne!
