I'm glad you didn't write a scene on Kag/Hide infidelity because that'd just be too OOC...not to mention that Sessh would go into rage and kill everyone in sight.  I don't think Kagome is that kind of person, especially not while she's pregnant with another man's child. 

Anyways...good to know that Sessh is willing to learn from Kagome.  I can't wait to read the next chapter.  Please update soon.

Hi I was wondering since she is apparently falling in love with Seshomaru because of the baby what is going to happen to Inuyasha

Another great chapter Miwa! The Patience chapter had danger, excitement, action, drama! I loved it! I'm glad Sess made it in time and saved the baby and Kagome. What a great lesson for us all. Keep up the great work!

Silly Kagome.  I can't believe that she would risk her baby's life for a craving.  Thank goodness she now knows how dangerous it is outside the castle walls.  I'm so glad that Sesshoumaru was able to get back in time to save her and the baby.  Scary chapter.  I think it's sad how unaccepting people are.  Instead of understanding Kagome's love for her child, the holy people claim she is a demon's whore and attack her.  Will her baby ever be safe from such prejudice?  What a fabulous update!  Can't wait for more!

Wow, that was an exciting, action packed chapter.  Very well done.  Action is hard to write.  I'm glad you decided against having Kagome be unfaithful to Sesshomaru, even though she is fond of his general and admires him, with the conflict she has with InuYasha and Sesshomaru for her love, it would have been too much.  Still, he seems like a very attractive original character.  I admire the way you drew the character so vividly in so few words.  This story is just so great, I can never wait for the next chapter.

This is one fantastic story and I am so happy you want to finish it!

Yay! great chapter! Can't wait for more!! :D Update when you can!! :D

I love this story!!

Please up dat soon.. :D

please updata

aaaaaaww, and here i was worrying that they'll get into some big fight when the midwife thing was found out XDD

anyway, awesome work ! please keep it up!

Thank you so much for writing this beautiful chapter!  I love how Kagome and Sesshoumaru are growing so much closer together.  The way they both love and treat their child is sweet.  I just hope that Kagome isn't still thinking about leaving when her pregnancy is over.  Just because Inuyasha will be set free doesn't mean that she has to return to him.  Sesshoumaru and her are just perfect together!  I can't wait for your next update!

Sorry, that was me below. I forgot to log in.

I'm sorry to say that I still have a lot of trouble believing in this story. First of all, I found it very hard to read through some of the chapters as, despite your notes to the contrary and taking in Sesshoumaru's POV, what you have depicted is still essentially rape. I think that pointing out Sesshoumaru's beliefs is merely an attempt to justify rape. I didn't like how you depicted Kagome as realising that her own defiant actions led to her "punishment" as by the same logic, Sesshoumaru should have realised that it was his misunderstanding and ignorance that led to the same situation. I don't believe in the sincerity of this Sesshoumaru's feelings as his constant manipulation of the truth is firstly OOC and secondly just a way to secure more power for himself. Even his quest to understand love doesn't convince me.

Nonetheless, I still think that your writing skills are very good, especially for a non-native English speaker, and your use of the flashback was very nicely done. I liked the motif of the seven deadly sins in the chapter explaining Sesshoumaru's POV and your lessons in love chapters each having a central theme of a virtue is a clever contrast. Please continue writing this story because, despite the above, I believe that you have written something of interest and I understand that my personal tastes shouldn't dictate to others what should/should not be written.

I think that something really big occuring between Sesshourmaru and Kagome - perhaps a sacrifice of some sort on his part? - needs to occur to make the loving and equal relationship completely believable. Perhaps Sesshoumaru will learn to accept her rejection for the sake of Kagome's mental and physical health? Maybe after a time of separation, Kagome will realise what this means? I'm unsure but I know you have the skills to give this story an incredible finish :)

I love the way this story is evolving, from so dark and disturbing to so darling.  I didn't know how you were going to make the relationship work out between Kagome and Sesshomaru, but you have made it work brilliantly.  It is so sweet!

I just love Kagome's sincerity.  I'm glad that Sessh is learning from her. 
What a small world...Miroku, I can't believe he didn't hear the midwife saying Kagome's name. 

Anyways..please update soon.

PLease you must update! I can not live wiht out my sess/kag! I will be waiting for your update! Also GREAT F**KING FAN FIC!

<3's for you

OMG. I stayed up way late reading this. It's awesome. Have not read anything this good for such a long time. It kept my attention much longer that any fic normally would.

Ahaha, okay, sorry, I think I've calmed down now. Lol, anyway, amazing story! Dark-fics usually aren't my thing, but this one is special. =D I love the Sesshoumaru portrayal, albeit a bit...dark, I guess it fits in its own ways.

Please keep up the awesome work!

could you please make it longer plz. lately they've all been short. I STILL LOVE YOUR STORY!

wow, sesshy's falling in love... kagome and  inuyasha are a cute pair, both young, temperamental, and never a dull moment - unless of course, whenever inuyasha was out chasing the dead priestess... and having kagome loved by sesshoumaru... i'd say she deserves it, yasha would  never be able to love kaggie wholly, to loved her the way she should be loved, she would forever be kikyou's shadow....

Yet another awesome chapter.  I can't wait to get to the part where Kagome finally realizes that Sess truly loves her. 
I wonder if Inuyasha will wake up in the future...that would certainly add drama to this angsty story.  Please update soon.
