The sound of her palm against his cheek reverberated through the open area and caused the entire main all to fall silent. Her eyes were red and swollen and her cheeks were damp. He had expected this, but not so soon and perhaps not so publicly.
“Sango, please,” he tried, keeping his voice low. “Let us go to my office.”
“What’s wrong, monk?” she demanded. “Don’t want everyone to know what a liar you are? I thought you cared for me.”
“I did, I do,” he said reaching out to touch her arm, but she flinched away from the contact. “Please, my darling Sango, try to understand.”
“I am not your darling anything, and I would thank you not to address me so informally, houshi-sama,” she spat. “How could you? How could you do it?”
“It’s more complicated than it might seem,” he told her. “I beg you not to say anything you might later come to regret.”
“Don’t worry, the only thing I regret is placing my trust in someone like you,” she said. “Even worse, you didn’t have the decency to call me and tell me yourself. I had to hear it from someone else.”
“I would have. I should have,” he agreed. “News traveled far more quickly than I had expected. Sang…Sato-san, it was never my intention to hurt you. I care for you a great deal and it pains me to know that I have caused you such injury.”
“You should have thought about that before you decided to fuck someone else,” she spat. “I hate you and I never want to see you again.”
She spun on her heel and walked away. He wanted to call out to her, to go after her and tell her everything, but he knew that he couldn’t. He could not take risks with Kagome’s life just for the sake of his own happiness. Maybe it was better this way. Word would spread quickly of what had passed between them and it would only help to fuel the rumors that he was the father of Kagome’s baby.
He had been certain that he was prepared to face her, and yet nothing could have prepared him for what had just happened. She claimed to hate him now and it hurt much more than he had anticipated. He forced himself to hope that once all was revealed she would be able to forgive him for his deception and that it would be possible for them to reconcile.
He ignored all of the covert looks and whispered conversations and he made his way out of the room. It was going to be a long nine months, of that he was certain.

Kagome opened the door to admit the ancient youkai woman. She bowed politely as she stood back to let her inside.
“InuYasha-sama asked me to convey to you his regrets at not being able to be here for our introduction, Miko-sama,” she said with a bow of her own.
“First, please call me Kagome, and second did InuYasha really say that?” she asked. “That doesn’t sound very much like him, conveying regrets.”
Hisako laughed. “Clearly you know him well, Kagome-sama. What he actually said was more along the lines of cursing Sesshomaru-sama and wishing he could be here.”
“That definitely sounds more like him,” Kagome said. “Um, to be honest I’m kind of unprepared for all this, so is the living room going to work or should we go to my bedroom? I don’t know if you needed to do an exam or anything.”
“The living room, should be fine,” Hisako told her.
Kagome led the way into the living room and sat down on the sofa with her hands folded in her lap. The youkai woman sat beside. She was a little nervous but if InuYasha trusted this woman than she did too and there was nothing threatening about her youki. In fact it was almost familiar like and was distinctly warm, grandmotherly.
“Why don’t I get a feel for things to start,” Hisako suggested. “Can you remove whatever you are using to hide the youki of your pup.”
Kagome smiled at the word and took off the rosary. “Pup. I don’t if I’ll ever get used to that, but I like it somehow.”
“May I?” the youkai woman asked, her hand held out towards her belly.
Kagome nodded and watched as the woman closed her eyes and put a hand on her stomach. She could feel Hisako using her youki in some fashion and though she didn’t know exactly how it didn’t feel the least bit threatening or invasive and her reiki agreed since it was allowing her examination without even the smallest flare up.
Hisako opened her eyes. “I beg you forgive me Kagome-sama. I too once believed the vicious lies spread among my people about you, but they were just that, lies. Your reiki cannot lie and holds no malice towards youki as such. It is no wonder that InuYasha-sama was unable to resist a woman such as you.”
Kagome shook her head. “There is nothing to forgive. Now, could you feel anything about our pup?”
“It was difficult,” Hisako admitted. “I could feel that you were not trying to keep me from sensing what I could, but the reiki that is cocooning your womb kept me from being able to tell you too much. The youki is there and strong for such a young one, and very familiar to his father’s at that stage.”
“It does feel a little like InuYasha, doesn’t it,” Kagome said as she held a hand over the tiny bulging of her belly. “I wonder if that means we're having a boy.”
“It may very well mean just that,” Hisako told her. “Other than that everything seems to be well. You are young and healthy and as surprising as it may be your reiki is clearly no threat to this child of youkai blood. I take the tea and the recipe are serving you well?”
Kagome nodded. “I was beginning to worry since I was having trouble eating without feeling ill, but since InuYasha brought me that first bowl and the tea I’ve been feeling great.”
“That’s good,” Hisako told her. “The nausea should pass in two or three more weeks or at least it did for Izayoi-sama. Such a lovely woman she was. InuYasha-sama thought the sun rose and set around her.”
“Hisako-san, if I may, what happened to InuYasha’s parents?” Kagome asked. “He’s never spoken of them and it just never seemed right to ask.”
“Ah, and there is the real tragedy,” Hisako told her. “No one knows who killed Toga-sama. Sesshomaru-sama searched for many years, followed every trial, every tip no matter how unlikely and could find nothing. Had the great miko at the time not been under near constant surveillance then no doubt she would have been blamed for there was no other at the time with power enough to kill Toga-sama. To think such a villain might still walk among us...”
“I had no idea,” Kagome breathed.
Hisako just nodded a little. “Izayoi-sama, tried her best to stay for InuYasha-sama’s sake, but Toga-sama’s loss weakened her and when he was only just a boy of eleven she was taken by a human illness. It did not help that Sesshomaru-sama had no idea how to deal with his little brother’s grief and human need for affection.”
“My poor InuYasha,” Kagome said quietly. “Thank you for telling me. It makes it all the more remarkable that he grew up to be such an amazing man with such a good heart.”
Hisako raised an eyebrow. “I think Kagome-sama you underestimate your effect on him. I love InuYasha-sama like my own grandchild, and yes he has always been honorable and had a soft spot when it comes to children, but only since meeting you has his true heart returned to him. Once again there is a kindness to him, a sort of hopefulness that he lost when his mother died. It brings me great joy to see in the man the little boy he used to be.”
“I’m sure he was always in there,” Kagome tried.
“That may be,” Hisako agreed. “However, it was you who opened the door. There is little an old woman like myself can do to help your cause, Kagome-sama, but it is my honor to serve as your midwife. I can say with certainty that Toga-sama and Izayoi-sama would have approved of the woman that has captured their son’s heart so completely.”
“I hope so,” Kagome said.
“Well, I fear I must return home now,” Hisako said, putting her hands on her knees to stand. “I will be missed soon.”
Kagome stood with her. “I understand. Perhaps next time though you could tell me some stories I can tease InuYasha with from when he was young.”
Hisako laughed. “I have many of those and will be delighted to share them with you as time permits. I can show myself out, Kagome-sama, and it has been a true pleasure meeting you.”
Kagome sat back down and watched Hisako go. Once she heard the door close she curled her legs up under herself and let her head fall back She slid her fingers under her shirt and then lower, pushing the waistband of her skirt down. It was still small but she could definitely feel a slight swelling below her fingers and she smiled. She relished the feel of the youki within her that spoke of the life she and InuYasha had created with their love and in the way her reiki sought to protect that life.
She thought about her own mother and wondered if she would approve. She liked to think that her mother would see the value in what she was doing and that she would be happy to be having a grandchild, no matter who the father might be. She was certain that if her mother had been able to get past the fact that InuYasha was hanyou that she would have liked him for the man he was.
Her cell phone beeped out text notification and when she saw who it was from she smiled. She opened the message and her smile widened further as she read it. He was going to be able to come over later in the evening. Now she had something to look forward to.

Kagome was already curled up in bed by the time he arrived. He closed the balcony doors behind him and came over to her, leaning down to give her a soft kiss.
“Hey, sorry I’m so late,” he said as he shrugged out of the leather jacket he was wearing.
“That’s okay. I’m actually in bed a little early tonight,” she told him throwing back the blanket. “I didn’t know how long you'd be able to stay so I wanted to be ready for you when you got here.”
He growled a little and shed the rest of his clothing at a record pace. Her entire body warmed as he lay over her and nibbled her neck. “You smell better every time I see you. Carrying our pup suits you.”
She wrapped her arms around him. “Mmm, I’m glad you think so. I think so too. Now stop talking and put your mouth to a better use of our limited time.”
He chuckled lightly against her throat. “Demanding woman.” He licked and nipped his way along her collarbone and across her chest until he was in position to tease her nipple with his tongue. “Is this better, miko-sama.”
Kagome gasped as he drew her into his mouth and sucked hard. She looked down to find him smirking. “Not yet,” she said ignoring how good what he was doing felt. She pushed on the top of his head. “Better try something lower.”
He laughed again.”Whatever you want, miko-sama,” he murmured against her skin as he trailed his way down her body with warm wet kisses and soft swipes of his tongue.
She breathed out his name as his mouth closed over her. He hadn’t been lying when he said her scent was more enticing than ever, and he was delighted to find out that the taste of her was somehow sweeter as well. The youkai in him was more content than it had ever been before and he knew it was because he had not only finally found his mate, but that she was carrying his child. It spoke to something ancient, something primal within him.
He took pleasure in every moan that passed her lips and the way she squirmed against him as he lapped at her with purpose. She was what had been missing from him life for so long, all the joy and hope and love that he thought might be forever lost to him.
“Please,” she gasped as she fisted the sheets.
He delved his tongue inside her one last time before focusing solely on pushing her over the edge. He let a deep rumbling growl spill from him as he applied pressure to her clit with his tongue. Her back arched up off the bed and her thighs closed around his head as she cried out his name. She whimpered and shuddered as continued to tease her gently. She reached for him as her body relaxed and soon he was laying over her. The heat of her body and the silk of her skin against his was something he knew he would never tire of.
He groaned as he slid into her and her arms came around him. He would never ceased to be amazed at how good it felt to be inside her and how well they fit together. She clung to him as he began to move within her, always pulling him back as soon as he moved way, as if she couldn’t bear to be without him, as if she could never have him deeply enough inside her.
She made a needy sort of sound. “Faster,” she demanded as she lifted her hips to meet his every thrust.
He was only too happy to comply. Her nails bit into his back and her teeth into his shoulder as she tightened around him and that was all it took to have him dying within her. He would have been embarrassed at the way he howled as he climaxed, but that was impossible once he saw the way she was smiling at him and how she had reached up to rub his ears. Kagome, his Kagome loved him exactly as he was both human and youkai and he didn’t have to be less than he was with her, not ever. It would have been a dishonor to her and what they shared to be embarrassed. He brushed his lips across her and then moved to lay beside her.
Kagome sighed as she snuggled into him. “I’m glad you were able to come over tonight.”
“Keh, me too,” he told her as he kissed the top of her head. “I just wish I could stay. In fact I need to get up soon and hit the shower. I won’t even have time to let you wash my back.”
“Maybe I should call your brother and tell him that he’s keeping you far too busy,” she said. “I’m working from home almost all the time now so it shouldn’t be this hard to get to see one another anymore.”
“I’ll say something to him,” InuYasha said. “He knows you’re carrying but not that you aren’t still keeping a busy schedule. Shit, speaking of carrying, how did it go with Hisako? Is everything good with you and the pup? Did she tell you if it was a boy or a girl?”
Kagome smiled. “She thinks everything is fine, but because of my reiki she couldn’t tell much else. Even though it didn’t work against her, she couldn’t get much through the barrier of reiki inside me protecting the baby. Though, she does agree with me that the youki feels like yours and that it might mean we are having a boy.”
“Boy, girl whatever,” he said as he put his hand against her belly. “I don’t care which as long as you are both safe and healthy.”
“You are going to be a wonderful father,” she said quietly. “And we can have a whole houseful of hanyou pups and nothing would make me happier. I’m sure if we have enough we can manage to get at least one of each anyway.”
“Our pups will be lucky to have you as their mother,” he told her. “Damn it, I have to get ready to go. I am definitely going to hint to the bastard that you are getting frustrated with how little time I’ve had to work with you lately.”
Kagome just nodded and watched him as he climbed out of bed. She didn’t blush or look away as he glanced back and caught her appreciating the view. He was hers and she didn’t get to spend nearly enough time with him so she was going to take advantage of every second when she did and she wouldn’t be sorry for that. The shower came on and she needed one herself but knew that if she joined him he would end up being late and his brother already had him on a short enough leash as it was.
Once he was out of the shower he got dressed and then came over to her, first giving her a kiss and then placing a second below her belly button. “I love you. I’ll call you tomorrow.”
“I love you too,” she replied.
She watched him go, wishing more than anything that he could stay, but knowing that for now it was safer for all of them this way. She held fast to the hope, no, to her certainty that her vision of a peaceful coexistence between youkai and spiritual humans would come to pass and that she and InuYasha would be able to be together as she knew they were meant to be. Until then she would just have to be patient and be happy with the time they did get to spend together.
