Disclamier: I dont own the name Yami no Matsuei. It’s really name of a manga but I liked the meaning of it and named a clothing line after it (more about it later.).
First I would like to thank LovelyJaded for leaving a review - I hope you will continue to enjoy the story as it goes! ^_^
The chapter starts with a flashback. So R&R if you like, other than that - enjoy!

Past
Something woke Sesshoumaru that night.
He laid in his bed, his eyes closed while he listened to the rain tap the windowpane. With a head foggy with sleepiness, he yawned and rolled onto his side. He stretched out his arm to pull Kara closer when he felt nothing.
He paused and then felt around again.
But nothing.
Blinking tiredly, Sesshoumaru sat up and ran a hand through his hair. He stared down where Kara was supposed to lay naked and more than less passed out(...).
But the covers had been pulled back and flatted out, leaving no traces that somebody had actually slept there.
Sesshoumaru furrowed and looked around. He threw off the covers and left his bedroom, careless to his own nudity. He headed towards the kitchen, hoping to find Kara there, but when Sesshoumaru got there, he found it empty. He turned around and headed towards the living room.
The scattered clothes were gone. The towel he had worn earlier was neatly folded and placed on the coffee table, and on top of it was a note with his name written on it.
Sesshoumaru walked over to the table and picked it up.
His fingers strangely numb as he held the piece of paper and read,
’Had to go. Sorry. Take Care.
Talk to you later
/ Kara’
Sesshoumaru glared at the words. His whole body turned stiff and cold as his golden eyes read the same line over and over again.
He let the note fall from his hand when he left the living room.
He re-entered his bedroom. The air was stuffy and thick with his and Kara’s musky smell and sweat. He walked over to a window and opened it wide. The rain was still beating down and soon filled the room with its humid scent.
Sesshoumaru walked over to his bed and pulled off the damp sheets and pillowcases before dumping them on the floor. He left to get new sheets and pillowcases, and re-dressed the bed. When he was done, he picked up his smartphone and messaged Kaede, saying he wouldn’t be coming in for work but work from home. After the message was sent, Sesshoumaru fell back on his bed and sighed. His nose twitched when he caught his own smell and he turned over to his side, burying his face in the sheets. He didn’t feel like getting up to take another shower and would just have to bare with it.
One second. Five seconds. Ten seconds later, Sesshoumaru’s mind was still restless. He tried forcing himself not to think but his mind was working up a maelstrom of its own.
Ten minutes. Thirty minutes. Forty-five minutes later, Sesshoumaru was wide awake staring at the ceiling, and he knew, there and then, that he was in fore a long night...

Present
And here she was.
Four years later seated across from him in a red-striped pullover and tight dark jeans. Kara’s black hair was loose and framed her brown-skinned face. The bangs swept to the left and concealed her left chocolate brown eye.
Sesshoumaru’s eyes glided over to the person sitting next to her. Gold clashed with amber. This wasn’t the first time Sesshoumaru caught the little girl staring at him. It was clear she had never met someone with his hair colour and couldn’t stop herself from staring, even though Kara had told her not to.
She was a beautiful child, this Yukiyuri. Long eyelashes surrounded big doe-like eyes. Her skin had a cafe au lait hue to it, much like his father and Inuyasha. A button nose, chubby cheeks and dark sliver hair tumbled around her face.
"I’m sorry for disturbing you like this, Sesshoumaru,"
"Mondai nai," Sesshoumaru answered coolly and returned his gaze back to Kara, "I take it you’re staying with Kouga and Ayame,"
"Yeah. Staying at a hotel would have been too expensive. And mum and dad," She paused and glanced at Yuki, "Well...things would have turned complicated." Kara said, trying to laugh off her words, but the both adults felt the sudden awkwardness that settled between them.
"What are we doing to do? We can’t stay here forever,"
Sesshoumaru opened his mouth to answer when the phone rang. He excused himself and got off the sofa. He walked over to his desk and rounded it before pressing a blinking button.
"Sesshoumaru Taishou speaking, who-"
"-Sesshoumaru?!" Came Kouga’s urgent respond out of the speakers, "Kami man, what took you so long to answer?! It doesn’t matter, I gotta go! Ayame just called, all crying and shit. Saying Kara and Yuki have gone missing! Some shitty reporters chased them away!"
"Kouga-"
"-I can’t fucking believe this shit! Who the hell chases a young woman carrying a child?! Paparazzi or not! They should show some damn respect!"
"Kouga. Kara is-"
"-I’m telling you Sesshou, once I get my hands on those motha-"
"-Uncle Ko-ko!" Yuki exclaimed and jumped off the couch. She ran to Sesshoumaru’s desk and tried to reach for the phone but couldn’t. Sesshoumaru, without thinking, picked her up and sat her on the table.
"Cub? Is that you?!"
"Yes uncle Ko-ko! Where are you? I miss you! I’m scared!"
"Thank Kami," Kogua sighed in relief, "I was so worried. I thought...is your mummy there?"
"Yes Kouga," Kara answered him and gathered around Sesshoumaru’s desk as well, "And thanks for sharing your colourful vocabulary with us,"
Kouga chuckled on the phone. Kara imagined he was rubbing his neck while smiling in an embarrassed matter.
"Eh, I didn’t know you were there, soo..." He trailed off, "But fuck that, what happened?"
"Somehow the reporters found out I was back and were waiting for us when we left the bridal shop,"
"Jakotsu’s?"
"Yea," Kara snorted and shook her head, "You would think after years in the public eye I would be prepared! But nooo. I practically invited them to take the shoot,"
"So they saw Yuki?"
"Yea..."
Silence built up as the adults pondered the effect Yuki’s picture would have once it was published. Because there was no doubt by this time tomorrow everyone would know Takara Taishou had a daughter while she was aboard.
"Hmm it was expected," Kouga thought out loud, "And we will have to deal it. Okay! Give me a minute and then I’ll come and get you."
"No, Kouga."
"Aww, come on Sesshoumaru!"
"No, Kouga. We have to finish examining the designs-"
"-To hell with the designs, Sesshoumaru! I’m coming up this very moment!"
"Kouga, nothing can be resolved here. I will have Jaken drive Kara and Yuki to my house and there we will discuss this matter further."
"But?!-"
"-He’s right, Kouga," Kara cut in, "We’re fine and we can talk more later..."
She said the last words, sending Sesshoumaru a look. Sesshoumaru stared into her eyes before giving her a curt nod.
This was neither the time nor place to talk about...Yuki...
Kouga grumbled few curses before sighing in defeat. "Tsk! Have it your way!"
"Hn." Sesshoumaru smirked and walked away from the desk to call his caretaker, Jaken.
"Hey cub? Can you hear me?"
"Yes?" Yuki answered quietly and leaned over the office phone. Kara moved quickly around the desk before Yuki fell over the phone and placed her hands on Yuki’s waist, steadying her.
"Okay cub, I need you to be a big girl and listen to your mum. Can you do that for me?"
Yuki nodded then remembered Kouga couldn’t see her and gave him a quiet yes.
"Good. And I promise, if you behave, I will give you all the ice cream you can eat!"
"Kouga!"
"Yea!" Yuki exclaimed happily and giggled, jumping and clapping excitingly. Her sombrely mood instantly lifted by Kouga’s promise, "I promise to be good!"
Kara groaned and nearly smacked her forehead. Did Kouga have any idea just what he promised?! If he gave Yuki allll the ice cream she could eat, she would be up the whole night high on sugar, only to be left cranky the morning after.
‘Great. Just great.’
"Okay, goodbye cub. I love you."
"Luv you, uncle Ko-ko."
Kouga hung up after that. Sesshoumaru walked back to Kara and Yuki informing them Jaken would be picking them up in few minuets and they should get ready. Kara nodded and lifted Yuki off the desk. After she help Yuki put on her jacket then her own, Sesshoumaru escorted them to the parking area and saw them off.
As he stood there, watching the headlights disappear in the distance, something told him he was in fore a very interesting evening when he got home.

"Sesshoumaru?"
"Hm?"
"Talk to me,"
"..."
"You’re mad?"
"No."
"Then, what?!" Kouga cried, "What’s up with that PMS face?"
"Who is the father?"
"Inu-koro, of course!" Kouga retorted with a disgusted snort and gripped the steering wheel harder, "Who else? I mean Yuki has all the Taishou traits. You saw her."
Sesshoumaru said nothing and continued staring out the window. So Kara hadn’t told Kouga they had slept with each other. That he could be Yuki’s father.
Great. Just great...
How old could Yuki be? Four, maybe five?
The thought caused something to tighten in his gut.
"How old is Yuki?"
"Hm...four? Yea. She turned four this spring, march eighth to be exact."
Sesshoumaru’s gut constricted even more.
Kouga turned right and drove up to tall black gates. On the other side laid Sesshoumaru’s home. He pulled out his cell phone and punched in the code. Few seconds later the gates opened and Kouga drove up the curved driveway.
"How long have you known?"
"Kara called when she was four-months pregnant. I didn’t see Yuki until she was one, maybe two months old. We’re busy launching Yami no Matsuei collection, soo...And yea. I’m Yuki’s godfather, by the way."
Sesshoumaru paused in his steps and sent Kouga a look. Kouga grinned widely, proud practically glowing in his dark blue eyes. Sesshoumaru shook his head and turned the key. When he stepped into his house it felt like a different place. The normally big, empty, dark and quiet mansion was lit and noisy. The teve was on the living room and someone was cooking the kitchen, the spices drifting around the house.
"I’m guessing Yuki is the one watching cartoon in the living room so the kitchen is yours." Kouga winked and walked away before Sesshoumaru could answered.
Sesshoumaru watched him go then went the opposite direction. He stepped into the kitchen and found Kara by the stove, stirring a dish. Whatever she was cooking smelled delicious and caused Sesshoumaru’s stomach to growl, alerting his presence. Kara jumped startled and spun around, a hand pressed to her chest.
"Shit Sesshoumaru! You scared me!"
"Didn’t mean to," Sesshoumaru smirked and took a seat by the island table.
She stared him and he stared her. Both knew what was about to happen. Both knew what question was going to be asked. The anticipated tension so charged that they could taste it - feel it. Kara was the first to break the stare and looked away. She walked over to the fridge and opened it. Sesshoumaru watched her take out an onion and then closed the fridge. She walked back to the stove and placed the onion on a chopping board.
"You moved,"
"Hmm, the penthouse got too expensive."
Which was a lie. Sesshoumaru could have easily afforded the rent with his salary. Even with the money he inherited from his mother.
But ever since that night...
Sesshoumaru shook off the thought and decided to get straight to the point.
"Kara...who is Yuki’s father?"
There. He said it.
He watched Kara’s whole body tense. She was standing very still, her back to him. There was an uncomfortable silence and then Kara turned around to face him. Her expression was a mask of wariness. She didn't speak. Sesshoumaru restrained himself from moving and stared fixed into Kara’s eyes.
"Answer me, Kara. Who is the father?"
"Sesshoumaru..." She began saying.
Sesshoumaru’s face was solid. His emotions carefully concealed. Even so, Kara could sense the urgency to answer his question.
She looked away, her hair falling into her face. She wrung her hands, her stomach tying in knots. She didn’t really know why she was stalling.
The question was simply with a simple answer...But...
But she feared his reaction...
Kara took a deep breath, restraining the butterflies flapping wildly in her stomach and looked back up.
"Sesshoumaru, Yuki’s father is..."

"Are you sure you’re okay?"
"Hmm."
"Sure? You look kind of...pale, paler than usual. Don’t you agree, Kara?" Kouga added cautiously, his blue eyes studying Sesshoumaru closely.
"I’m fine."
"Okay man...See ya tomorrow."
"Hmm."
"...Night Sesshoumaru..."
Sesshoumaru’s eyes gilded over to Kara but she looked away before their eyes made contact. Kouga gave him one last wave before he turned away and Kara followed closely behind.
Sesshoumaru watched them get into Kouga’s car and closed the door before they had driving off. When the door clicked, Sesshoumaru slid onto the floor and dropped his head. His hands ran over his face before he buried his fingers in his hair.
Great.
He just found out he was a father - the father to his sister’s child.

Done! And I know what y’all are thinking - "I knew it!" But dont think the story ends there, more is to come. Like everyone's reaction to the news, especially Inuyasha’s...

If you havent figured it out yet Sesshoumaru, Takara and Inuyasha are somehow related - the question is how...
Stay tuned for more. Matte ne!
