Pregnancy: A Journey by fadedgrey
An Announcement
DISCLAIMER: I write to Santa every single year asking him for a certain steamy, drop-dead gorgeous inuyoukai, but sadly he still belongs to Rumiko Takahashi (that unbelieveably lucky girl). So, I got nothing.
An Announcement
The Western Lands. Hundreds of acres upon acres of beautiful, lush, majestic, and prosperous lands belonging to the revered and feared Daikyoukai, Sesshoumaru. And more recently, his beloved mate Kagome. Together, their rule has brought a peace and prosperity to the lands that had never been reached before. All was well.
"SEEESSSHHHOOOUUMAAARRRUUUUUU!!!!!"
Or, maybe not.
"Where is that damn dog?! I'll show him! Tell me what I can and can't do! That's the day!" Stormed an infuriated Kagome through the majestic halls of the Western Palace. Servants, maids, and all who valued their lives scurried in fright as their Lady's voice echoed through the palace. After all, their lives had been quite fulfilling so far and they had no intentions of ending it prematurely.
All save for one stubby, oblivious kappa.
"JAKEN! Where the hell is Sesshoumaru?! And don't give me any of that bullshit ‘cuz I'll smell it a mile away and you don't wanna know the consequences of lying to an angry miko." Snarled said miko as she shoved the screen open and grabbed the cowering kappa by the collar.
"I-I-I.. d-d-don't know where h-he is m-m-milady..."
Bringing the poor, terrified kappa up to eye level, Kagome's storming blue eyes glared at the kappa while the furious pink waves of her aura crackled throughout the room as if gleefully ready to purify any demon that stepped out of line. Jaken, sure he was a goner, was just about ready to wet himself and as he felt the pulsing energy from his Lady snap across his skin, he lost all restraint. Eyes rolling into the back of his sockets, Jaken went into a dead faint. Absolutely disgusted, Kagome dropped the unconscious kappa to the floor. Just then, the screen slid open.
"Woman, what have you done to this Sesshoumaru's office." the object of Kagome's ire intoned - the unconscious kappa spread out on the floor made the question somewhat moot - as he walked into his office. Flicking little more than a glance down to the insentient kappa spread out on the Persian rug in the middle of his office, Sesshoumaru glided past the furious miko towards his massive dark oak desk.
"What. Have. I. Done?" Kagome panted venomously, "WHAT HAVE I DONE?! What kind of question is that?! I'm not the compulsive obsessive dog with a giant pole stuck up his-"
"Watch what you say, miko." Sesshoumaru interrupted with narrowed eyes.
"Oh, ‘miko' now is it?! How many times do I need to tell you MY NAME IS KA-GO-ME!!" Kagome screamed, panting and totally out of breath after her outburst.
Sesshoumaru closed his eyes as an all too familiar tick began developing in his temple since this little troublesome miko had entered his life. Rubbing the bridge of his nose, Sesshoumaru asked, "What is the true issue that has you in complete dramatics that you wish to address with this Sesshoumaru?"
Temporarily stunned, Kagome could only gape as she stared at her completely haughty mate. Temporarily. "You wanna know what's got me ‘in complete dramatics', mate ?" Kagome asked in a saccharine sweet little voice. Batting her eyelashes, Kagome sashayed towards her very wary mate and laid her hands on his chest, fiddling with the edges of his haori.
"Let me tell you what has my little mind all in a tizzy," Kagome cooed as her hands continued fiddling, "Today, I woke up to a bright sunny day," her hands found the opening to Sesshoumaru's haori, "and after finishing my wonderful breakfast brought in by Mei," Sesshoumaru could feel Kagome's hands massaging soft, warm circle on his chest and fought to close his eyes in pleasure, "what do I learn? That my Lord mate had CANCELLED ALL MY TRAINING SESSIONS IN-DEF-IN-ITE-LY!!" With that, the crackle of Kagome's powers filled the room, crackling and snapping against Sesshoumaru's skin as an indication of his miko mate's displeasure.
Suddenly Kagome's hands were locked in an iron grip as Sesshoumaru raised them above her head and brought her flush up against him. Acting as if he had never even felt the little "love tap" from his miko lover, Sesshoumaru stared coolly into Kagome's eyes. Liquid amber gold met stormy flashing blue.
"Do you wish to hurt them then in your selfish desires?" demanded Sesshoumaru in a low voice as he locked eyes with his beautiful, fiery mate.
Kagome snorted. "I dunno what training sessions you're talking about Sesshoumaru. If you haven't noticed, the only person coming out with bruises from those hell sessions with your hellspawn General Kaito is me. I hardly think you need to worry about Kaito."
Taken totally aback, Sesshoumaru let his guard down for a moment and let his shock show through a widening of his eyes. "You do not know."
Confused, Kagome could feel the anger draining out of her. "Don't know what?" Suspicion suddenly started creeping in and with a narrowing of her eyes, she asked, "This doesn't have anything to do with a stupid little kappa that went and told on me when I broke the venetian vase given to you by your mother, does it?"
Wincing a bit at the memory of that disaster, Sesshoumaru answered in the negative. "No, Kagome." Suddenly softening the look in his eyes to a soft golden glow, Sesshoumaru let Kagome's arms go and brought her even closer to his body if possible. Nudging his face into her neck and alternatively licking and nibbling her mating mark, Sesshoumaru filled in his beautifully bewildered mate.
"Koi, you are with pup."
----------------------------------------
Whew! That was a bit of a doozy! What'd ya guys think? I thought it would be cute if Sesshoumaru was the one that announced the pregnancy to Kagome. A little bit of a role reversal, eh? So hopefully, if this one isn't hated too much, I'll be poppin' out (get it? LOL.) a couple more one-shots involving our loveable pair.
Make sure to read & review! Thanks! :)
