*Hyperventilates when update email comes through*

Off to read now!!

I got into this story after reading Swimming in Silk. And this one is just as good.. you are such an incredible writer! Now I cant wait for both new chapters!

The only time I on Dokuga is when this fanfic is updated, I seriously enjoy it so much, keep up the good work and hoping for an update soon.

ugh, I just can't express enough how much I love this story. so wonderfully written, and dark but not unbearable because you throw in just enough light for someone to keep rooting. 393939/10 will def keep reading.

Oh how I love this! A new chapter never disappoints!
Keep up the good work! I really, immensely enjoy reading this story!

Whew! That was brutal...I had to remember to take a breath. I see Naraku was in attendance. Thanks so much for updating. Cheers! 

Excellent chapter! Loved it!!

First off, thank you for uploading the new chapter! Love it when a writer is on roll with their narratives so thank you for giving us the next chapter! :)

It's really difficult to write a situation that is forced unto both characters by instances that are out of their control (case in point, the mating ritual) but still try to bring a small moment of romance, pleasure or just primal instinct. I thought you did a fantatstic job writing the mating sequence! I particularly liked how you had Kagome remember her previous experience in this situation and how being in the moment with Sesshomaru, it almost erased that feeling for her in that moment. That moment of 'pleasure', even if it was brief, was a small blossom that may (and hopefully) develop into something amazing.

I am also really liking how Sesshomaru's character is turning out and I am very interested to see what his plans are for the future and how his character will develop. This is definitely the start of the pair working together and the mating sequence proved that while their motives may be different, they're willing to put them aside to take on one obstacle at a time.

I am SO looking forward to a "hot, steamy" lemon from you because I do think you'll do a fantastic job at that hehehe ;P

My curiousity as to where this story will go has only heightened and like I said in my review before, favourite story for me at the moment! :D

Keep up the amazing work and looking forward to the next installment. As always, hopefully we get that sooner than later! <3

Woah! I'm speechless in a very good way. What a heavy chapter. Seems like Kagome has some dirt on Naraku! I really cant wait for more! This is a brilliant and unique story! 

Oh man.  What a nightmare for her. Looking forward to their development as a pair. 

Oh man! We’ve crossed the threshold! They’re mated!!! Sesshoumaru, despite the situation, was surprisingly... considerate. I know Kagome is in a tough spot - and there’s no denying Sesshoumaru holds most of the power in this relationship - but I hope they can eventually come to a truce. It’s still too early to say though. This was such a good update! And I wonder when we’re going to learn more about what happened to Souta. The foreshadowing!!!

keep up the awesome work!!

Omg. I can't believe they have to do it in front of those guys!  Very embarrassing to poor kags.

YAYYYYY !!! I just reviewed chaps 4 - 6 like a couple hours ago & you bless me with another chap . Well I must say although Sesshomaru has been fairly understanding & nice the last couple of interactions I did kinda expect him to be a little more aggressive & assertive when it came time for the mating especially since it was held in front of everyone but he kept his kindness & even tried to make it bareable & pleasurable for Kags even though she still didn’t want it but given the way everyone thinks in her current situation this was the best she’ll get , anywhoooo can’t wait for future chaps amazing as always

Damn it man it wasn't enough I want more!

WOW!-you know how to write some great lemons. so far, i'm loving this story. keep writing and i'll keep reading. c'ya'

This has become one of my favorite  stories.

Can I say how annoyed & disappointed I get when I get to the end of the chap & realize it’s the last chap :( lol I had to catch up on 3 chaps which was great for me since I love this story anywhooo amazing chaps so far , loving the SesshxKag interactions 

Update soon!!!!

So sorry, that anonymous entry was mine. I needed to sign in again. Love this story. 

Wow! That was quite interesting leadup to the ceremony! Caps! I’m wondering if Sesshomaru has other plans for Rin as time goes on. Naraku sounds as slimy as ever. Thanks for updating. 

New favourite story!! Love, love, love it! :D

Loving the premise, the characters, the tension building (for the story and the romance) - it's very well written and all I wanna do is read more!

Thank you for updating, looknig forward to the next installment - hoping its sooner than later haha
