Rins' POV


(Panther Reserve Camp)

We moved away from the edge of the field I had ran into towards a main camp. When I arrived I noticed there was so many soldiers, they definately had us out numbered. I thought about the move this Leader was making and thought that he was a total baka. I mean they have me. Stupid move to begin with; especially since I carry. Two: wouldn't it have been smarter to move me away from their camp instead of into it. Sesshomaru is right behind us, showing him the way to the camp was stupid. Wonderful for me and bad for them, they didn't know his full power.

As they took me to a tent I saw the look on many of their faces; they didn't want me here. My being there meant death for them. Kais' father let him finish escorting me to a tent to the farside of the camp. I pleaded with him .

"Let me go Kai and I may be able to get him to spare you." I said.

He didn't care. He didn't listen to a word I had said to him.

"I have gotten you away from him. You are mine. You are what I want. My mate." he told me.

I was angry now. Did what I want not matter? Did the fact that I am pregnant and already have a mate not mean anything to him? Did the simple matter of I am happy with my life, my choices, my mate, my family, my friends, my home, and my general well being not mean a damned thing. Or was it just as simple that he did not give a flying fuck about me, only what he wanted?

"What about what's mine? What about what I want. What about I have a mate that you don't understand?" I cried.

"I want to be with my husband, my mate, and our pup." I told him.

He sucked in a breath loudly to speak but I continued.

"I love him, my Sesshomaru. I would die if I lost him and if I die this time there is no coming back again." I said.

Kai gazed at me curiously and asked.

"Again?"

"Yes again. I have already died and he brought me back. He didn't have to. I was a nobody, an orphan child with noone. He could've just left me in the woods dead or not even come looking for me at all. But he did look for me and found me dead. I had been mauled by wolves and he used Tensaiga, his beautiful, life-giving sword. He brought me back from the dead and I have been with him ever since." I explained.

"How old were you and what happened to your family?" he asked.

"My parents and my brothers had been murdered by bandits. I was taken in by a neighbor village and I was eight. My affections for my mate at that time had been that of a daughters' to her father. As time past my feelings begun to change as well as our relationship. By my thirteenth year i realized I loved him like a woman loves a man she wants spend her life with. I just didn't know if he loved me, so I had kept to myself. Quite frankly he hasn't ever told me he loves me, but the way he is with me shows that he loves me. "

Kai was about to speak but I held my hand up to keep him silent. I wasn't finished yet.

"Sesshomaru isn't very vocal, he is more physical, our pup is a sign that he loves me. Otherwise he wouldn't have chosen me as his mate and let me carry his pups. Kai I don't want you to die. i don't want people who feel for me to die because of me. I most definately don't want people that do not even want me here to die because of some stupid rivalry. So please Kai let me go. Just let me walk out of here and go to him. Let me go, please." I finished.

"I will let you go but that doesn't mean that the others will." he said.

"I know but I will beg him to spare you, just let me walk out. He is here." I said.

I felt the ground tremble before he arrived then I heard his growls. He was searching for me and walked right out of that tent. I was shoving men as I went. I walked right over the top of men that had fallen from his entrance into the camp. Many yelled and tried to grab me to stop me from going to him. They watched as I got closer to him; Sesshomaru cocked his head to the side and whined at me. I may not have been inu but I understood what he wanted as he lowered his head.

I opened my arms so he could inspect me, assuring himself I and the pup wre fine. Before he pulled away I grabbed his muzzle and hugged him.

"The pup and I are fine, Koi."

Sesshomaru shifted to his human fom pushing me behind him and unsheathing Bakusaiga. I grabbed his wrist to still his hand.
.
"No please. Some of them didn't want me here. They wanted me to leave and Kai let me go. They were just following orders." I told him.

I turned to the panthers to try and get them to see sense and leave with their lives.

"I know that you didn't want to hurt me or even have me here; so go. Leave." I announced.

Several of the panthers backed off.

"Do you want him to kill you for me?" I pleaded.

I watched as many fled but so many still stayed, Kai even left. I told myself I tried, I really did. Men were just stubborn.

"Ok, I tried. Have at them." I said to Sesshomaru.

Sesshomaru growled as a voice broke through the air.

"You are a very foolish mutt to come here after a mere onna. I thought you had better respect for yourself than to mate a human. Just like your father, weak." Kais' father snarled at Sesshomaru.

Sesshomaru looked back at me, he gave a look that clearly said get out of here.

"Who knew that great Sesshomaru would meet death over an onna. It is really pathetic." he said.

"Go. Get out of here. NOW!"

I ran; so did the other panthers. They knew as well as I did what was going on, I could hear it and feel it. The snarls and growls, the ground began to shake beneath me, the whole forest shook with the force of their battle.

It took several minutes before I was back at the castle grounds. The battle there was over and my mates soldiers were collecting and burning the dead. They immediately stopped and sropped everything when they saw me approaching them.

"My Lady, whay are you here?"

They began asking me questions.

"My Lady you should be...."

I stopped them sharply

"Help him. Go help him."

I was sobbing so hard I was barely able to talk to them, I choked out what was happening and where Sesshomaru was. I told them to hurry, help him. He needs you. They left quickly leaving me with a very distraught Jaken. He helped me get back to my rooms. He stayed with me for a few minutes then left to keep watch for our lord.

"Please come back to me. You promised you would come to me."

I was able to croak that out before I passed out. Going into complete oblivion, the realm of sleep to await my mate.

Authors Note: I hope you like it. Reveiw please. I have enough for just one more chapter. I'll put chapter 9 up soon.
