Many years ago stood the ruler of the Western lands. His name was Sugimi, The Dog General. He was not an evil lord, nor a hated one. He was looked to as one of the greatest rulers Japan had ever seen. He was a skilled fighter and an honorable man but he was not an ordinary creature, no, he was a youkai, as well as the other three lords. This one stood out though, he was an Inu youkai. He was loyal to all and protected those who needed it.
He soon mated a female Inu youkai and they had a son shortly after. He was a joy to the castle and everyone around him. He even wanted to be friends with the humans and half demons his mother hated and disapproved of, however, his father allowed him to as he could see no harm in it. Besides he preferred them over many full fledged demons knowing their nature.
The boy grew up skilled and still loved by many of his fathers followers, his father was his idol, the boy looked up to him as if he was god himself. However after he became a teenager in human terms, barely a few hundred years old in demon terms, he found out something that changed his life. He was out looking for his father as one of the other lords came to their castle needing to talk to the great Inu demon. He soon caught the scent of his father and followed after him. However, he also scented a woman, a human woman.
The boy watched what happened for a moment, becoming disgusted he left. He told the other lord he could not find his father and to wait for him come morning. He then left and went to his room to retire for the night contemplating what happened.
Morning soon came as the boy woke up. He went to the meeting room to be greeted by something he never would have expected. His father, his mother and another woman, the one he found his father with the night before, however, something was different this time. His mother and father were fighting while the human female stood silently in the background and that's when he noticed it. The woman smelt like his father and vise versa. His father had mated a human, betrayed his kind, but most importantly betrayed his mother and he.
His mother left seeing no point in staying any longer whereas the mating bond had been broken so Sugimi could mate the human, leaving the boy there with his father and the female. Sugimi tried to explain not wanting to lose his only son as well but nothing could get through to the boy.
He soon left the castle taking only what he believed he needed. Only going to see his father once in awhile. He soon found out on one of his trips however, that his father had pupped the human woman and became even more outraged. Not only had his father gone against his kind as he did but now he brought a half breed into their family.
Shortly after he learned the woman was pupped by his father, he went to meet with him by the ocean in the middle of winter. His father had just survived the battle with a dragon, sealing him to the mountain. But now, his father was rushing into battle right after, not allowing his wounds to heal. This would be the night the half demon, the one he did not want to be his half brother, would be born and the day his father would lose his life to protect the two.
Throughout the years that his father mated the human he became cold and full of hate. His face became expressionless but deadly at times. He hated humans and half breeds alike, believed he was better then all of them, and would kill them and anyone else who disobeyed him or got in his way. When his father died he became the lord of the west but was not as his father was, or as the people who loved him wanted him to be. He was feared and hated by many.
He traveled and hardly went to the castle unless it was urgent or he was needed by one of the other lords. Many years after he saved a demon who would forever follow the young lord and provide assistance when needed. A two headed dragon was also there with the lord. When he would be considered about twenty two in human years and seven hundred in demon years he met a girl who would be persistent in helping him after a battle with his half brother and a strange human girl.
He ended up saving the little girl who helped him by bringing her back to life using a sword called Tensaiga. The little girl who he found out was called Rin began to follow him. Strange seeing as how it was a human child and he didn't mind, although the demon Jaken sure did. The lord even cared about her and would save her many more times.
What he did not take into account however was the female human that he believed was his half brothers wench coming into the picture however. This woman, unknown to him, would soon stray from his half brother only to come to him for comfort. Sure, neither of them really felt comfortable with it, nor did the demon lord like the idea and want to get rid of her but she seemed to have Rin attached to her and did not want to upset his ward, so he allowed the woman to stay, although it would not come without its little dilemmas.
The woman would start to melt the cold demon lord's heart and get close to him, even though it might take time and neither of them may notice at the beginning. However a certain, but a little ward might and gets excited she might have a new mommy.
This is the story of a demon lord and a human wench he never really wanted anything to do with. Through time and many adventures it soon starts to change. Will this cold demon lord learn how to love once again and come to love humans and half demons again as he once did? However he still wishes to keep that his little secret, it could be bad for his glorious reputation after all. The demon lords name is Sesshomaru, and the human woman is known as Kagome.
