Chapter 51 – A Surprise for Mama

They walked together until they were close enough to camp that she could find it without any trouble, and he scanned the area carefully to ensure there was nothing sneaking around that might attack her. He also made sure that he stayed far enough away from their camp and that the wind was heading the right direction, carrying his scent away from them rather than towards. Sure, it was a lot of trouble, but it was worth it.
‘Just great. Now, I sound like the monk!’
‘This Sesshoumaru believes the monk has the right idea. Even if she smacked you every time you touched her, wouldn’t those few seconds of contact be worth it?’
‘You have a point. But this Sesshoumaru is still rather angry with you. Even though she did not turn away, she did not need to know my weaknesses and fears.’
‘That is what mates are for. She will never turn away from us. She will not judge us. If she is not the one to share with, then who is?’
‘I am beginning to tire of you always being right.’
‘I guess it’s a good thing I’m here then. When are you going to ask her?’
‘I intend to ask her mother and grandfather for their permission first. I will only be doing this once, and I intend to do it right. She deserves nothing less.’

As Kagome walked into camp, she was surprised to find it nearly empty. The only ones who remained were Jaken, Ah Un, and Miroku. “Where is everyone?” Kagome asked as she dug through her things for clean clothes and her bathing supplies.
Miroku looked up from where he had been sitting, staring at his hands as he thought. “The children are in the field, training. I believe Inuyasha followed them. I don’t know where Sango and Kirara went. Kagome? Can I talk to you?”
“Is it going to take long or is it a quick question?”
“I’m not sure. I am terribly confused. Sango said the strangest things to me earlier, and I’m not sure what to make of it.”
“I’m going for a bath before it gets dark, but we can take a walk or something when I get back. Is that okay?”
Miroku looked slightly disappointed, but nodded his head. “Thank you, Lady Kagome. I very much appreciate your help.”
Jaken had been watching the miko since she entered the clearing without his Lord. When she walked over to the supplies that Lord Sesshoumaru and the children brought, he had to know. “Lady Kagome? Where is my Lord Sesshoumaru?”
Kagome turned and smirked at him. “Your Lord Sesshoumaru is near. Hey, would ya help me out here for a second?” The little toad nodded. He wanted to make her tell him, but he remembered what the demon lord had said. She was to be treated with the same respect as he showed the taiyoukai himself, and Lord Sesshoumaru would never stand for an interrogation.
She leaned down closer, before whispering, so the monk wouldn’t get any ideas. If she had known how lost he was in his own thoughts, she wouldn’t have bothered. “I need a clean set of clothes for Sesshoumaru.” She giggled as his yellow eyes widened in shock. “Oh, calm down. I’m gonna wash his hair for him. You know that’s hard for him to do. Do you really want him to put dirty clothes back on after his bath?” Jaken snapped back to reality and shook his head rapidly. “Good. Then get me new clothes.” The little green demon toddled his way over to the various bags and, within seconds, had produced another identical outfit. “Is this all he ever wears?”
“This is what my lord wears when outside the palace. It bears the traditional patterns of the Western Lord.”
“So that’s why the boys all have the same pattern, but in different colors?” He nodded. “Thanks, Jaken. Gotta run!”
He watched as she dashed out of the clearing, not necessarily towards the spring, but exactly where she had entered. She had carried the strangest scent. Being a toad, his sense of smell was nowhere near as well developed as an inu, but he had noticed it nonetheless. She was covered in his lord’s scent, but there was an odd touch to it, and hers was much stronger than usual. Shaking his head once again, he muttered to himself, “This Jaken does not want to know.”
~ SWtPF~
He smirked as she came towards him at full tilt. “In a hurry, are we, Kagome?”
She slid to a stop, panting and causing her chest to heave beautifully. “Jaken was making the strangest faces at me. He was rather suspicious as to why I needed new clothes for you. Told him I was gonna wash your hair.”
He took in a deep pull of her scent. “He most likely noticed the scent you carry.” She lifted an eyebrow at him. “You are covered in my scent and the scent of our earlier activities. It suits you well.”
“Oh, I bet. Of course, you would like it when I smell like you and sex!” He merely smirked wider. “Quit it and come on. It’s gonna be getting dark soon, and I would like to have dinner with the kids once I wash this scent off me.” She began to walk, and he reached out, taking hold of her elbow and changing her direction before walking alongside her.
“Do you not wish to carry the scent of this Sesshoumaru?” There was an odd pain in his chest at the thought of her washing his scent away.
“That’s not it. I just don’t need everyone looking at me and wondering what we did, especially the children!”
“They would not be able to identify the scent if they detected it. They have never encountered the scent of arousal and…” he paused for emphasis, “…intimate activities. But the fire cat, Kazue, Ah Un, and my little brother would know.”
“That’s reason enough for me.”
“And are you going to insist on bathing after every encounter?” He sounded rather upset, and she stopped, turning to look at him.
“Are you all right? You sound funny.”
“Do you wish to hide our time together from the hanyou?”
“For the moment. I just don’t want to deal with it. You saw how he reacted when you kissed me. I really don’t want to see what he would say if he thought we had sex!”
“You are the one who initiated.”
“Yeah, and you’re the one who loved it. I’m not embarrassed by what we did, and no, I don’t want to hide our time together. I’m just not ready for outside commentary.” She noticed that he refused to meet her eyes, so she reached out and cupped his cheek, turning him to look at her. “What are you thinking? Sesshoumaru, tell me. Why does this bother you so much?”
“If you were to become my mate, my scent would be impossible to wash away. It is a part of the bond that is formed. Our scents would be permanently mixed.”
“All right," she said slowly. "I don’t get what that has to do with you being upset that I want a bath. You’re the one that asked me to come along.”
He gazed down into her eyes, seeing her genuine concern. He wasn’t sure why he was suddenly feeling so insecure, but her words had touched a nerve. He wrapped his arm around her back and pulled her close. “It is not the bath that bothers me. This Sesshoumaru is unsure as to why, but your desire to wash away the scent of our combined passion… it…” He was not used to being at a loss for words, but he was. He had no idea how to finish his statement.
“I carry your scent with pride, just as I bear your mark. I’m just not used to this whole thing. Before the spring, I’d never been touched like that. I… I’m not embarrassed… I’m not trying to hide it… I… I guess I’m just not ready to make how close we’ve become so obvious to everyone.”
He nodded slowly. “I suppose I can understand your modesty. Come, I would like to get in the spring. I am rather uncomfortable.”
He watched as a smile slowly spread across her face. “I’m not surprised.” He released her waist and they began to walk once more. “I probably shouldn’t have done that to you. I’m sorry.”
“Do not be sorry, Kagome. It was well worth the minor discomfort, though I do not wish for you to feel pressured to reciprocate my attentions. We will move at your pace.”
“I appreciate that, but doesn’t it get frustrating? I mean, you’ve been with women, at least three different ones that I know of, though I’m sure there were many more. And you’re expected to wait for me? Until I’m ready? I just… I don’t know.”
“The demonesses who carried my sons were the last to grace my bed, and that was strictly for heirs. Yes, there have been others, but never did any of them mean anything more than a release. You are the first I have ever desired to kiss. You are the first to receive my intimate attention in such a way, the first I ever desired to taste, and you will be the last.”
Her eyes widened. “The first you ever… you know?”
“Yes, the first and only.”
“Well, damn! You did an excellent job for a beginner, then!” She giggled slightly as he allowed a few chuckles to escape him.
“I am pleased to have brought you pleasure in such a way. And I will always be willing to give a repeat performance. All you need to do is ask.”
She glared at him playfully. “You’re a bad influence, you know that?”
“This Sesshoumaru is honored to be the one to corrupt such a pure priestess as the Shikon miko.”
“Uh huh. And I have this sneaking suspicion that you will be honored to be the one to ensure I’m no longer pure, right?”
“When the time is right, Kagome, I will definitely be so honored,” he murmured in his deep, sexy voice with his lips brushing her ear.

The boys had returned to their training after their short chat with Shippo, but it had been quite a while now, and they were getting tired and hungry. It was when Yoshi heard a stomach growl for the tenth time in the last two minutes that he finally decided it was time to call it quits for the day. “Okay, guys, I think we should head back to camp. We’re all hungry and tired.”
“Yoshi? I have an idea,” Hisoka said rather softly.
“What is it?”
“Well, Mama really seemed to like it when we and Father returned with meat. Do you think maybe we could go on a quick hunt and get some for her? I bet she’d be surprised.”
“It would be a nice surprise, but I doubt Father would approve of us hunting on our own. We were told to train or practice, in camp or here,” Shin reminded them.
“I’ll take ya, runts,” Inuyasha spoke up from behind them. They had basically forgotten he was there at all. “Even humans need to eat meat now and then, and Kagome always likes it when I hunt. We’ll go and get something big enough for everyone.”
They all nodded their excitement. Their uncle actually wanted to do something with them! They weren’t sure what had caused the change, but they welcomed it nonetheless.
“We should take Rin back to camp first,” Hitoshi mentioned. With another round of nods, Rin was carrying Kazue as they all walked back to camp. Inuyasha spoke with Miroku for a minute, letting him know where they were going and to keep an eye on Rin, and then they were off.
~ SWtPF~
They finally reached the spring, and he scanned the area before erecting a barrier once more. Kagome set their clean clothes on a rock a bit away from the water, while placing her bathing products and towels on the edge. When she turned to look at him once more, he was still standing right where she left him, merely watching her. She walked towards him slowly, swinging her hips a bit more than usual, immediately drawing his full attention.
He watched intently as she carefully pulled moko-moko from his shoulder and set it on a nearby rock. Then, she loosened his sash and slid his haori from his shoulders. Once she had his chest exposed, she took the time to trace the muscles of his torso. It was as if he was carved, each muscle perfectly defined under his pale skin. He was her marble god; as he stood perfectly still so as to not discourage her explorations.
Once she outlined each muscle of his chest and abdomen, she lifted herself up on her toes to place a soft kiss on his lips before turning and walking away. He watched as she pulled her shirt over her head and loosened the skirt she was wearing, so that it dropped to the ground around her feet. She stepped out of it before bending at the waist, quite a bit more than necessary, to pick it up. She took her time rising, too, so he had a lovely view of her soft, curvy ass as it peeked out of her red lace panties that matched the enticing breast binding she wore. She tossed the two garments to the side and he watched her arms slip behind her back.
“Kagome,” he started slowly, catching her attention. “Stop.” She pouted at him, hurt that he wasn’t enjoying her striptease. “Let me,” was all he said as he stalked closer to her. “This Sesshoumaru desires to learn how to remove this… item.”
She giggled for a moment. “It’s called a bra.” She turned her back to him and reached around once more. “Look close and watch when I do it. There are little clips.” He watched as her fingers moved, expertly opening the small clasp.
“Close it again.” She let out a little sigh, but did as he asked. He placed his hand lightly on her hip before sliding it up her side. It moved slowly, leaving goose bumps and shivers behind, stopping only when he reached the challenging little clips that separated him from his treasures. He slipped his fingers under the place where the two ends joined and gave it a shot. He found it much harder than it looked, but then she had used two hands, and he didn’t have that option.
She felt his struggling and sensed his growing frustration. “Hang on. I can do it with one hand. Let me show you. I should have shown you that way to begin with.” He moved his hand lower on her back and watched as she manipulated the fabric for a moment, careful to watch every movement so he could repeat it. Once she had it opened, she slipped her other hand back to close it once more.
He was going to get it this time. He would have just cut the fabric, but he figured she wouldn’t appreciate that. Add to that the fact that he definitely wanted to see her in it again, and he was determined to master the ‘bra’. It took a minute; as he tried to arrange his fingers just as she had, all the while taking extra care to not injure her perfect skin with the deadly weapons that tipped them.
After only two failed attempts, he did it, and he was quite pleased with himself. “Turn around,” he whispered in her ear. She turned towards him, and he slid the straps from her shoulders as he had seen her do earlier, uncovering her deliciously beautiful breasts achingly slowly.
He kissed along her jaw line before moving down her throat to her collarbone. He bent lower as he trailed kisses across the top of her chest until he reached his mark. He paid extra attention to where she was marked as a member of his pack before kissing down between her breasts. Her head rolled back, and she let out a sigh as he dropped to his knees and proceeded to peel her panties down her long legs, breathing in deeply as her scent hit him unhindered. He buried his nose in her curls while kissing her inner thigh.

Rin had decided to color while she still could, as the sun was slowly beginning to fall below the horizon. Kazue stayed at her side, watching over the little girl closely.
Sango had decided she had enough practice for the day and called for Kirara to head back. They landed just outside of camp and, as soon as Sango slid off her back, Kirara transformed into her smaller self and looked to where Kazue lay, letting out a meow. The black puppy popped up and hopped through the grass to her friend. The two then proceeded together, walking over to where Ah Un lay. The dragon lifted its two heads, eager to gossip with his new companions.
Sango looked around camp as she leaned her boomerang against a convenient tree. “Where is everyone? Miroku?”
It took the monk a moment to register that she had spoken to him and, when he did, he was surprised. He hadn’t even noticed her return. “Oh, Kagome is taking a bath and Sesshoumaru hasn’t come back yet. Come to think of it, Kagome left with new clothes for him.”
Sango watched as the hentai gears turned in his head and decided to stop it before he got himself in trouble. “Okay. What about everyone else?”
“What? Huh?” He looked back up at her in confusion. He had been so busy imagining why Kagome would have needed clean clothes for Sesshoumaru when it was her taking the bath that he hadn’t heard her.
Sango sighed before repeating herself. “I asked where everyone else is.”
“Inuyasha took the boys hunting. They wanted to surprise Kagome. They just left a few minutes ago, after dropping off Rin.”
“So, then, no instant noodles tonight?” Sango asked with hope in her voice. Sure, the noodles were good, and they came in handy, but real food was always better.
“Not if they’re successful and I don’t see why they wouldn’t be.”
Sango nodded before an idea popped into her head. She turned to look at the little girl who was deeply involved in her coloring. “Hey Rin, would you like to help me?”
Rin looked up before jumping to her feet. “Yes, yes, Rin wants to help!” she cried out in her eager little voice.
“I saw some berry bushes not too far away, and they’re nice and ripe. I think they would make a great dessert, and you can have a surprise for Kagome then, too.” She smiled down at the little girl who looked so excited she could burst.
“Rin loves berries! Lord Sesshoumaru always lets me eat as many as Rin wants, but one time Rin ate too many, and then Rin had a tummy ache, and Jaken had to watch Rin, and Jaken wasn’t nice and said it was Rin’s fault!”
“Well, we’ll make sure we get enough for everyone to have some, and we can even eat a few while we pick them.” Sango grabbed two of Kagome’s cooking pots, one for her and one for Rin, before they left the clearing. It took Kirara and Kazue a minute to notice their charges had left, as they were focused on their conversation about the odd smell Kagome carried when she returned, and what it could mean. Once they did, however, it took them only a few seconds to catch up to the two who were already immersed in their berry picking.

“Sesshoumaru,” she said nearly inaudibly. “If you keep this up, we’ll never get in the spring.”
“So?” he murmured into the perfectly shaped triangle of soft black curls, his breath brushing across her just so, causing her knees to buckle. He caught her as her legs gave out and stood before he carried her into the naturally heated water. He didn’t bother to remove his pants first, since they needed a rinse, as well.
She watched as he lowered her onto the underwater ledge before moving out into the deeper water. He slipped under, wetting his hair. He was under for much longer than she expected, and she was just about to dive under and check on him when he broke the surface. He lifted his arm out of the water and tossed a ball of wet silk at a branch. She was amazed as his pants hit the branch perfectly, leaving them hanging nearly as neatly as if she had done it by hand.
“Good aim.” She smirked at him before motioning him over. It was quiet in the clearing then, as she slowly washed his hair, followed by his back, chest, and arm. She left the lower half for him to take care of and dunked herself under the water, making sure to keep her eyes closed.
When she reached for the shampoo, he stopped her, pulling her in front of him. Even with only one hand, it was heavenly as the demon lord washed her hair. He massaged her scalp expertly with his claws, all without drawing a drop of blood. He insisted on doing the conditioner, too and, just as she had expected, he decided to wash her body for her, as well. “You know, I can wash myself,” she said softly, enjoying his hands sliding over her skin.
“This is another inu instinct. We show our affections by grooming each other.”
“I bet this isn’t a pack activity, though, right?”
“Well, parents often bathe with their pups. You bathed with Inuyasha and this Sesshoumaru.”
“Yeah, but that was because he was wounded. I didn’t figure you would want that happening again.”
“There is no harm in you helping him bathe, as long as I or the children are present, as well. And, of course, only I would get the pleasure of washing you. You and the slayer bathe together, do you not?”
“Well, yeah, but that’s different. We don’t wash each other or anything like that. We use the privacy to talk, and we usually go together for safety. It’s gonna take me a while to get used to the instinct thing. I was really expecting you to be territorial and jealous, and tell him to keep his hands to himself and keep his distance.”
“Is it not the same with humans?”
“You mean would a couple bathe with the guy’s brother, too? No. Unless there was something kinky going on there, it would never happen. I guess it’s the pack mentality that I’ll need to adjust to.”
“Kinky? Would you care to define that for this Sesshoumaru?” He watched as she blushed and shook her head. He merely smirked before continuing. She didn’t have to tell him now. He would find out eventually. “The pack does most things together. We eat together, bathe together, and sleep together. But, of course, this Sesshoumaru will be sure to find time for privacy, as well.” She watched him grin rather evilly at the idea when something hit her.
“Sesshoumaru? Earlier you said ‘If you were to become my mate’. What happened to ‘I fully intend to make your mother my mate’?”
“You did not seem to appreciate the assumption. I have not yet asked, and you have not agreed.”
“It wasn’t the assumption, really; it was just embarrassing, with everyone looking at us like that. They all had those grins on their faces. It was just weird. Sesshoumaru? Was it true? What he said, that you’re afraid to ask? Do you blame yourself for what happened?”
“This Sesshoumaru failed to protect you. I failed you and you died. A mate is supposed to be a strong protector and a good provider, and I have yet to prove myself to you. There are also a few things that must be done before I can ask.”
“You don’t have anything to prove to me, and you don’t need to be afraid of your life without me. I already promised you would never be alone again.”
He pulled her to him and kissed her softly. “I forget, sometimes, that I can tell you anything. Apparently, he does not.” They shared a few more tender kisses as they cuddled together on the ledge. As the sun started to set, however, he released her and lifted her from the water, thoroughly enjoying the view from below. She wrapped a towel around herself and turned away as she dried her hair.
With a smirk at her shyness, he pulled himself from the water and wrapped a towel around his waist before moving close and turning her towards him. She smiled as she took in the view of the water droplets sliding across his muscles, rolling downward in the dips that made them so defined. The moisture stopped at the edge of the towel, as it hung low on his hips. He looked absolutely godly, and she had the oddest desire to drop to her knees right then and there at his feet.

It hadn’t taken long for Inuyasha and the boys to take down a pair of boars. They worked together to skin and clean the animals until they had nice slabs of meat. They returned to camp to find that Rin had gone off with Sango, Miroku telling them about the berries.
With a smirk, Inuyasha turned to the boys. “You wanna make Kagome even more surprised?” They all nodded. “Find some nice, straight sticks like you would roast fish on and bring them here.” Within seconds they were off, spreading out along the edges of the clearing they were camped in. Inuyasha set to work, cutting the meat into cubes as he had seen Kagome do in the past. Of course, she used a knife, but his claws worked just as well.
By the time he had a large pot full of bite-sized boar chunks, the boys were returning with handfuls of makeshift skewers. He showed them how to arrange the meat on the sticks, and they all chipped in. It wasn’t long before the area was filled with the delicious scent of roasting meat. Sure, they liked it better raw, but their uncle had told them that it was tasty this way, as well, and that this was Kagome’s favorite campfire food.
Sango was surprised as they reentered camp and saw dinner cooking. She looked around, but Kagome was nowhere to be found. Instead, she found a rather smug looking Inuyasha and a still dazed and distracted monk.
“Sango, will you keep an eye on this for us? We need to go wash our hands.”
She stared at him in shock. He was going to wash his hands? And he prepared dinner? Hell had officially frozen over, and she was certain she saw a pig fly by in the distance. Inuyasha was actually chipping in and being helpful? And, on top of that, being nice to Sesshoumaru’s sons, as well? Not sure what to say, Sango nodded weakly.
“Gimme the berries. You know Kagome says we should wash them off before we eat them. We can do it, since were going to the stream anyway.” She and Rin held out their pots before the slayer moved to sit near the flames to watch the meat.
“I think I’ve lost my mind,” she murmured quietly to herself. “Never thought I would see the day.”
“Master Inuyasha has made amends with his brother, Lady Sango. I believe he is making up for lost time with the pups.”
Sango looked around for the source of the voice, but she saw no one. “Definitely lost my mind. Now, I’m hearing voices. I wonder if I hit my head.”
“Lady Sango, it’s me! Myouga! Over here!” She turned to where the voice seemed to originate and saw that it was, in fact, the demon flea and retainer of Inuyasha, hopping up and down on top of Kirara’s head.
“Oh, Myouga! When did you get here?”
“Not too long ago. I have an important message to give Lady Kagome when she returns, and then I must be off. How has Lady Kagome been? Anything strange happening?”
Sango furrowed her brow at the odd question. “She’s… fine. She… Well, I guess her hearing has gotten a lot better. They figured it was a side effect from Sesshoumaru’s youki. And she grew claws at will earlier. I guess I would call that strange.”
“So, it has already begun.”
“What has, Myouga?”
“What? Oh, nothing. Nothing at all.” She watched as the flea disappeared into Kirara’s fur. A moment later, the kitten began to scratch, and she followed him with her eyes as he went flying halfway across the clearing, disappearing into the grass.
“Sure, I believe you,” she said, more to herself than to the flea, who was doing all he could to avoid answering the question.

She reached up and towel dried the long silver strands of silk he called hair before drying herself and slipping on her pajamas. They consisted of short shorts and a spaghetti string tank top that stopped above her belly button. Both pieces were a baby blue with a pattern of clouds, stars, and moons. She heard him chuckle as she stood facing the trees as he dressed.
When he had donned his new pants, he called out to her. “It’s safe now, Kagome. This Sesshoumaru is covered.” His voice was filled with his amusement, and she crinkled her nose at him before letting out a low growl.
“So did you rinse them out enough, or do you want me to do it again?”
“They should be fine. I will respond to the scrolls Jaken returned with this evening and, in the morning, I will send him with the replies and any clothes that need to be washed. He will return with fresh clothing.”
“We should probably have the kids take a bath in the morning before he goes, so he can take their clothes, too.” He nodded his agreement as he slipped his haori on, watching as she gathered and packed up her soaps and bottles before pulling out a large, clear bag. “Here, give me the wet pants and the haori, too. Do you have another sash or is that it?”
“There are more in the supplies. What is that?”
“Oh, this is a plastic zipper bag. Plastic is waterproof, so I keep all my clean clothes in them and I put my dirty or wet clothes in different ones, so they don’t get my things wet or smear demon guts or mud everywhere.” He watched with interest as she placed his soiled clothing in the bag before sealing it. She did the same with hers and tossed both in her shoulder bag. As she moved towards him, she passed the rock moko-moko rested on and the fur, with a mind of its own, wrapped around her knee before traveling up her body, stopping only when it hung evenly over her shoulders. “I guess he likes me.”
“Moko-moko desires to hold you just as I do.” He took hold of her hand; lacing their fingers together, before beginning the walk back to camp.
