I have to say you did it again.  What a wonderful read this chapter had been.  I loved it, thank you.  I feel so sorry for the prince, he's been handed a rotten deal as a kid.  At least he didn't hold resentment towards Sesshomaru's mother or him for that matter.  He loved them like his own family and I know the love is returned with a new addition to the family.  He's a great healer wonder if Kagome might fall in his footsteps?  This story rocks can't wait to read more...  Update soon.

In regards to your A/N at the end of this chapter, I think your intentions with the rut came through quite well. It was a really well-written sex scene, but those emotions really shone through. Kagome is opening herself up to the idea of enjoying life again--both in the day-to-day and the intimate--and Sesshoumaru's centuries of yearning paid off physically, but also in gaining Kagome's trust. 

But my favorite part was after, when he cooked for her and thanked her for checking with him about the shower. That just gave me all of the feels. And that's what's so special about this story. Nothing about the little things feels mundane or boring. Every small thing feels like a great step toward something even more beautiful. I truly love this story and your writing. 

I love the idea of Kagome making Sesshoumasoap! 

I can just picture the advertising: "Because you'll never get to smell my beautiful husband up close."

I love reading about their daily married life! Thanks for writing!

I can imagine that this chapter was incredibly difficult to write. I think it was done very well, though; Kagome's anguish, lashing out, Sesshoumaru's guilt over his own feelings--all of it was expressed in a way that felt very raw and real. Sometimes scenes like this can overshare and that then diminishes the message, but that's not the case here at all. 

Shippo is such a great pillar of support. <3

I guess I'm a little confused about the extent of Kagome's reiki loss? Like she was able to infuse the wedding band for Sesshoumaru and she has this plan for infused bath products, but she can't do much beyond that, I'm guessing? Like purifying youkai or erecting barriers?

The trunk of clothing from Sango made me tear up. I love the Kagome/Sango friendship so much. It was heartbreaking but also such an amazing gift from the extended family. 

And Shippo! Our little guy all grown up, ahhh!

The contents of the white box... I wasn't spot on with the handful of guesses that I had (old pregnancy test or ultrasound photos), but close! Man, I'm dreading finding out what happened to our poor Kagome. 

Loved every bit of it! With her herbal healing abilities, it would be nice if she decided to help out the youkai community by training more as a healer. Or I can see her leading the way to advocate for better treatment of youkai and the humans they are mated to. Lovely chapter. Thank you so much. Oh yeah, I would definitely let Inuyasha and Kikyo stew a bit. 

I'm so loving the attention to Kagome and Sesshoumaru's conversations and interactions in general. Even though they've both changed and have secrets from each other, the overall atmosphere that you've created is so warm.

I also really enjoy the descriptions of all the houses, the inn, etc. They sound so perfect. 

Loved this chapter! It's great to have chapters just about the slice of life stuff to balance out the drama. And it's so nice to read the little details that show how Kagome and Sesshoumaru's relationship grows ever stronger. Interesting details about why mixed relationships need to see specific doctors. I thought similarly to Kags at first and was offended by it but the Prince explanation makes sense. I hope all will go well at her appointment. And I hope Rinsho gets encouraged to follow his passion now that Sess won't be alone.

This us such a lovey story. Can't wait for more..thx for sharing this

Absolutely crushed about Kagome's family all passing away. :c 

Wondering what else happened since her time in the Sengoku Jidai. Can't wait to read more!

Ahhh, I love this so far! Your writing style is lovely; the flow is very engaging. 

I can't wait to see where this goes. I feel like Sesshoumaru is always portrayed in fanfics as excessively cold (when considered "in character"), but this feels more accurate to me. He smirks and gets visibly emotional (angry, frustrated) in the series, so even if he's not warm and inviting, he's not as super closed off as so many portray him to be. I think you found a really nice range for him.

Adoro la vida diaria de los dos, me encanta que escribas sobre eso y de como va avanzando la relacion de ambos

Thank you for updating I loved the chapter.  Kagome got to see first hand how yokai lives are affected on a daily basis by yoki suppression and or seggration.  I was hoping she would want to be an ambasador of sorts for yokai in their unfair treatment along with their mates.  I enjoyed how Kagome explained her miscarrige to the prince how he bristled at the cause.  Loved that part oh and Rinsho's part in this story as well mastered with perfection on his profile and personality.  All in all this story rocks and one I look foreward to reading over and over.  Can't wait to read the update...

I hope Kagome doesn't let Kikyo intimidate her.  Great update!

I'm enjoying the peacefulness! I feel trouble brewing and I like them just living being happy lol. Please update soon! 

Another well written chapter as always. I love the non dramatic chapters just as much as the dramatic ones. It's nice watching kagome a realistic character growth at a normal pace and her relationship. Thanks again for the update and I can't wait for the other stories !

I quite enjoy reading about mundane everyday life with these two. Most stories just want to hit the main points and boom story over. This is much more realistic and helps set the stage to pivot into those main points. I can't say that I don't create little scenarios in my head to this story about their "mundane " aspects of their lives. Lol sad there was another filthy lemon.. but I'll live. Keep up the great story telling!

Wowza! That was some chapter! Yes, it was a long time coming! They both needed that. Hmmm...Inuyasha. This should be interesting. Wonderful update. Thank you.
