“Kagome are you sure you don’t want me to come with you?”

The miko smiled as she finished packing her old yellow back “I told you I’m only going to be there for 3 months tops and I’ll be staying at a shrine with other monks and mikos” she looked over at the worried hanyou “I’ll be fine”.

A month prior, Kagome had gotten a letter from a shrine saying they heard from Kaede about her and how she wasn’t trained in a lot, but held potential. They were willing to let her stay with them for a few months and teach her the ropes as Kaede was finding it difficult to teach in her old age. It was a great opportunity for her, even if she had defeated Naraku. They had barely gotten out of that fight alive and she had always felt if she had been more trained it wouldn’t have been such a close call.  She was still finding it hard to believe it had been 2 years since she returned to the feudal era after completing high school. She was now 19 and been learning how to really live in this era with the help of her friends. It was certainly a change from living in the past part time, at least she used to have a chance to go home and enjoy modern conveniences like toilets and showers. Still, she was happy to be around her friends who were a second family to her.

“Kagome I’m just worried. This is the first time you are leaving the village without any of us” Inuyasha admitted as he took her old yellow bag, which was now starting to get holes in it. He gave it a strong look “this thing isn’t going to last much longer”.

She looked at it forlornly. The bag had definitely seen better days “I know, but it’ll make this trip”.

He carried it out of the hut and helped her load it on to her horse “promise you’ll send word when you get there?”

“Promise” she assured as she gave him a hug then released him to get on her horse and looked back at him “and tell your wife I wish her a safe and healthy delivery. Let me know what she has”.

“Yeah yeah” he blushed “see you in a few months”.

Giving the horse a kick at his side and they were off. It would take roughly 3 days to reach her destination so long as nothing happened to slow her down. It gave her time to think about the past couple years. Shortly after returning to stay permanently in the feudal era, her and Inuyasha had tried being together. It became clear that while they loved each other they were not good for each other. They were immature, hot tempered, and it made for an unhealthy relationship, and so before their friendship was destroyed by hatred, they split. Their friendship had been saved and they had become more of a brother/sister relationship and encouraged each other to find someone who complimented them and made them a better person. Before long Inuyasha had met Aya in a neighbouring village they had been visiting. The two hit it off and they were quickly an item. The woman was good for the hanyou as he became more mature, less quick to temper and rash judgements. Within a year they got married and now were expecting their first kid.

Since then Inuyasha had attempted to find Kagome someone, but it never worked out. There was always an issue with them. One of the men had nearly lost his life after it was discovered he enjoyed hitting women. When the hanyou had seen his friend with a black eye it had sent him into a fury. The village managed to get the hanyou not to kill the man, but the man was exiled from the village. After that, finding a man for the miko was all the harder. Most men were afraid of her now and that they may accidentally do something that would get the hanyou on them.

 Sango and Miroku had tried to set her up a couple times as well, but the men chosen were always lacking something. Sango had even tried setting the miko up with the prince who had wanted her, but the miko found the prince was still head over heels in love with the taijiya. The others were men who felt a woman’s place was in the home, taking care of the home and raising the children. They would get upset with her when she tried being anything more then what they expected and she found it near soul crushing. After having a heart wrenching cry about men trying to change who she was, the couple then decided they wouldn’t set her up on anymore disappointments.

It seemed she was doomed to be single. Being a woman from the future made her different then men were used to dealing with in this era and she found all the men she met not even close to anything she could see herself living with. She needed to find someone she could confide in and would treat her as an equal.

Three days past by uneventfully with her sleeping at inns when it got dark and traveling the main road meant she didn’t come across next to no youkai. Kagome could see the shrine she’d be living in and couldn’t help, but feel something was wrong with the place. Kaede had told her it was a place where many monks and miko’s went to for training, like a school, with lots of people always coming and going. However, she didn’t see a soul and the only sounds she heard were the leaves being blown along the ground by the wind. She supposed she could just be imagining it because she was nervous being away from her friends for the first time. Maybe she had gotten turned around and was at the wrong place. She pulled her map out of her bag and began retracing her steps.

“Kagome?” A male voice spoke.

Kagome nearly jumped out of her skin, which the jump she did do startled her horse and she dropped the map into a puddle as she got him back under control. She looked towards the voice to see a man standing by the shrine gate “yes?”

He gave a sigh of relief “I’m so glad you made it safely, I’m Hiroshi. I am a monk at this shrine”.

She gave a nervous nod “did something happen here? It seems quite…different from what Kaede explained to me”.

“Yes” he frowned “we were attacked by a very strong youkai shortly after sending the letter inviting you here, many of us did not make it and some of us have left to search a new head monk”.

“I see” she said solemnly “I’m sorry for your loss, perhaps I should just go back”.

He grabbed her horse’s reins to stop her “please stay, you’ve come all this way. I’d hate it to be for nothing. Our head monk was killed in the attack, but I could teach you a few things and there are a few other monks here who could also teach you a thing or two” he explained.

She eyed him wearily, but didn’t want to offend “if you are sure I’m not intruding during a saddening time”.

Hiroshi gave her a smile “if anything you’ll lift our spirits up. We take great pride in teaching others and learning new things”.

“Alright” she relented and dismounted. She followed the monk to their stalls and got her horse settled. Grabbing her bag, she then followed him into the shrine where another monk was there to welcome them.

“Greetings. I’m Hiro” he greeted.

Kagome looked at him then back at Hiroshi. Both men were bald, but they had the same facial structure, same brown eyes, same average build. Only difference was the first male wore green robes while the second was wearing blue “twins?”

Hiroshi chuckled and nodded “yes we are, here let me take your bag” he offered, “you’ve arrived in time for supper”.

She handed her bag over and then was led to the dinning area by Hiro. There she met a handful of other monks, which helped to ease her, but now she was uncomfortable because she noticed she was the only female. By the time the meal was over and they were enjoying tea, she made the decision that she would return home after a good night’s rest. She’d try again when they were back on their feet since she was just too nervous about staying at a shrine that was all men. Now she just had to inform Hiroshi since he seemed to be the one in charge at the moment. Standing up she excused herself and left the dining room. Walking down the hall, she eventually found the monk.

“Is something wrong?” He asked when he noticed her.

“I’m sorry, but this is my first time away from my village without my companions” she explained, “I am feeling quite nervous and uncomfortable. I think I will head out in the morning”.

Hiroshi gave a nod, “I understand, perhaps you would like to come back with your friends next time”.

Kagome smiled, “I would love to do that” she quickly brought up her hand to cover a yawn that suddenly sprung up on her her.

“You must be tired from your travels” he observed “come, I’ll show you where you will be sleeping tonight. You’ll need a good night’s rest if you are going to be doing a long travel home”.

She thanked him and began following him down the hall. As they walked her vision was starting to get hazy and she gave her head a slight shake, which seemed to work. All too soon though the hazy vision was back and her eyes felt heavy. Was she more tired then she thought? No, she had a decent sleep at the inn she had stayed at. So, what was wrong with her?

“Are you alright?”

Kagome looked up to see a blurry version of Hiroshi and it suddenly dawned on her “you dru…drugged…me” her breathing came a little harder as she tried to hold her self up using the wall “why?” She slumped to the floor and as her world became dark, she heard him say she was special.

Kagome groaned as she rubbed her eyes. Her head hurt, but then she remembered what happened. Taking her time, she managed to be able to open her eyes. It was slightly dark with only a small window that showed her the sun was rising, making the room get brighter. Before she even looked around, Kagome knew she was in a cell. Glancing around confirmed it, but her eyes widened when she noticed she was not alone. She could see a form crouched in the dark corner and it was growling. She sensed a demonic aura and could tell it had a human appearance. These monks had been holding a youkai in their basement! Taking a further look she noticed that the cell hadn’t always been here, they had made it on purpose, but what that purpose was she wasn’t sure and she was afraid to find out.

“You’re finally awake”.

Kagome glared at the male as he approached the cells bars “Hiroshi, what is the meaning of this?”

Hiroshi smiled, “me and a few other monks were talking one night and a curious question popped up. We know when youkai and humans get together, they produce hanyou and that have a day of weakness, but we’d never heard of a miko and a youkai being together. We wondered what would they produce, would it just be an average hanyou or would it have a resistance to our power? Or on their night of weakness would they have holy abilities?”

Her eyes widened, she moved to stand up and for the first time noticed her hand was slightly wet. Looking down she gasped as she saw blood droplets and heard the monk say they tried cleaning the cell in preparation for her, but the youkai in the cell made it difficult. She heard the youkai snarl and took a glance at it. Red eyes stared back at her and it was then she recognized the silver hair. Sesshoumaru! Immediately she looked back at the monk “what did you do? What happened to the miko’s here? and how do you have him here?”

“You talk as if you know that youkai” he said with a raised eye brow, “we came across him a few months ago. Took everyone here at the shrine, but we managed to kill the toad youkai and dragon that was with him. He was quite the challenge, killed quite a few of us, but we managed to over power him with sutras and some paragliding incense”.

“The little girl?” She panicked, “where’s the little girl that follows him?”

He chuckled, “so you do know this youkai. Sadly, the little girl was mistaken for a youkai and struck by an arrow”.

Kagome tried to reach through the bars as tears streamed down her face “You monster!” She screamed, “youkai or not, you’d kill even children!” She sobbed at the thought that Rin was dead.

“As for the mikos of this shrine” he continued like everything was fine “well, we tried to get him in the mood, but turns out since he can make poisons, he’s also immune to them. He ended up killing every female we put in there. However, we finally found the right mixture to get him in such a state of lust it’s hindering his ability to escape” he chuckled “just been trying to find the right miko he’ll go for and not kill".

She gasped as she turned to stare at the taiyoukai. By now the sun had risen and she could see him clearly. His clothes we’re gone, his body was tense, chained to a wall by his neck, his claws digging into the stone floor as he was crouched over looking ready to pounce and his red eyes were focused on her. She could tell he was functioning on a basic instinctual level and not at all the stoic youkai she knew. Out of the corner of her eye she could see his cock was hard with no signs of calming down. She blushed and tried to avoid her gaze and hopefully give him a sense of modesty. She chose to glare once more at the monk before her “so why did you send for me specifically?”

“I’ve heard the rumours” Hiroshi answered with a smirk, “a woman strangely dressed awoke a hanyou that had been trapped to a tree by a miko’s arrow. Attacked by a youkai where the shikon no tama exited her body. It did bring new question to us”.

“What would that be?” Kagome said angrily.

“Well we wondered if a miko could give birth to a hanyou that either had purification powers or immunity to it” he recapped “but the miko born with the jewel in her body, a jewel that had human and youkai souls within it, what could she give birth to?” He saw her eyes widened “would she have the ability to give birth to a full-blooded youkai? Surely having the jewel in your body, from what I hear since your birth, would have some sort of impact on your body”.

Hiro entered carrying a long stick, “well he hasn’t killed her yet so that’s promising”.

“So, are all the monks in this shrine a part of wanting to do this experiment?” She asked.

“Well the head monk didn’t agree” Hiro commented as he jabbed the taiyoukai’s arm with the stick, “but now that he’s dead we can see if our theory is correct” chuckling when he heard the youkai’s breathing become heavier, “he’s ready”.

Kagome focused on the end of the stick and saw that there was a needle. She glanced at the inu as he hunched down so his head touched the floor as he began panting as he growled, “what’s going on? What did you give him?”

“Just his routine dose of medicine” Hiroshi answered, “a fresh dose makes him a little extra excited” he grinned “be sure to produce an interesting offspring”.

She scowled at him, “there’s no guarantee any of this work, that he’ll take me, and I know for a fact I’m in my safe period so chances of me getting pregnant are slim” she turned to the other monk when he started laughing, “what’s so funny?”

“We placed herbs in your food and tea” Hiro chuckled, “herbs that induce fertility. It works great with woman trying to get pregnant and unless your barren, you stand high chance of getting pregnant when he takes you, and I know he will”.

“What makes you think that?” She retorted hatefully, “Sesshoumaru would never take a human”.

“I’m sure he’ll have you because unlike the other mikos that have been in here, you’ve lived more than 2 minutes” Hiroshi spoke confidently as he glanced at the youkai, “well he’s looking ready so we will leave to give you some privacy. We are looking forward to seeing the results”.

Kagome watched them leave and when they were gone nervously looked at Sesshoumaru. His panting was turning to grunts and it was clear he was trying to fight his needs even on a basic level. She could tell he was in pain from being aroused for so long with no release. She frowned as she cautiously turned to face him completely. The thought of her first time being intimate was going to be rape was horrifying, the thought that the taiyoukai may kill her at any moment was terrifying, but knowing he was a victim as much as she was found her accepting the situation as scary as it was. She had to accept the situation or it would break her. Knowing of rape stories where women lost the ability to be intimate or be touched by another being, she decided there, she wasn’t going to be one of them. This wasn’t her fault. This wasn’t his fault. They were both victims. She took off her miko robes, surprised they had been left on considering what they were expecting of her. The miko then returned her gaze to the crouched western lord and saw that he was focused on her intently.

The second the last of her clothes hit the floor, he pounced, causing her to yelp as she hit the ground. She was scared, terrified about what was going to happen to her. This wasn’t even close to how she was expecting her first time to be. He was tall and his body covered hers completely as he put his face in her neck to sniff her deeply. Her breath hitched when she felt him roll his hips and his cock rubbed against her inner thigh. Growling slightly, he pulled against the chain to get more slack to move better. When he realized it wasn’t happening, he snarled and backed off only to grab her and pull her to his corner. She trembled in fear, wondering what was going to happen to her. She had learned about youkai mating and because she had dated Inuyasha for a bit, she had learned how inus breed. She was glad she knew because at least she knew how to behave to keep the taiyoukai from becoming aggressive, which would make the situation less traumatic for her.

Kagome felt him moving her to her hands and knees. She was shaking with fear as he covered her with himself, his one arm beside hers while his other moved to feel her folds. She gasped as she felt his finger slipped in side and moved around to lose her up. He didn’t waste too long playing around, after only a minute he removed his finger and placed his dick up to her entrance. Knowing what was coming, she took a few deep breaths and kept reminding herself neither of them at fault. They were victims. The feeling of him stretching her was painful and she whimpered while trying to keep her voice in. She didn’t want those monks to get the satisfaction of hearing anything. However, she did cry out when Sesshoumaru pushed himself all the way in, breaking her hymn. Taking a few deep breaths, she whimpered as he began a steady pace without waiting for her to get used to him. She couldn’t blame him. She didn’t know exactly how long he’d been locked up or how long he had been suffering, but it was clear he was eager to have release.

A hand gripped her waist tightly as his pace became hard and quick. Kagome cried out again as the pain in her vagina increased when she felt him getting bigger. She recalled Inuyasha saying that an inus penis swelled, making them stuck in side a female so when they cummed, nothing got out. She had no idea how painful it was when it happened, now she knew. His thrusting became less, but harder as he was quickly reaching his end. His claws dug into her hips while his arm that had been by hers moved to wrap around her chest and squeezed her arms together causing her to be unable to hold her self up. She buckled, face hitting the ground and he followed causing him to move deeper within her entrance as he kept her on her knees. She gasped at the new depth as he continued and shut her eyes tightly when he started roughly nipping at the back of her neck. A couple minutes of grunts, gasping, the odd whimper, and thrust and the taiyoukai pushed his hips against her as he tensed. She felt his dick pulsing inside her and knew he was releasing his seed inside her.

Kagome heard him release a heavy sigh and gave one of her own. She felt him remove his arm from being wrapped around her chest as he lifted himself up, but knew he wasn’t going anywhere. He was stuck within her and it would be a little bit before he could pull out. Both of his hands grabbed her hips and he pulled back as far as he could. She was curious to what he was doing and inhaled sharply when pushed himself back inside. He wasn’t done? Was this because of the drug or was this just how a youkai was when they had sex? She was given no choice, but to hold on as he resumed ramming inside her in quick thrusts as he hurried to reach his end again quickly.

It was nearing noon when the western lord finally seemed to calm down enough to give her a break and pulled out. Kagome found her legs felt like jelly while her private felt like it was on fire and her insides felt full from all the cum he had pumped into her womb. She didn’t think a male could cum so many times in a row, but he had and she was sure even if she hadn’t been given fertility drugs, she would have ended up pregnant anyway. The thought of being pregnant was a sobering thought. This situation was scary. What would happen if she did get pregnant? What would these monks do when the baby was born? Would they hurt the baby? The very thought of it frightened her and she shivered.

Her actions cause the taiyoukai to pull her closer to his chest and use his body heat to warm her up while they rested from their activities. Kagome could only hope that her friends would come looking for her when they don’t receive word she had arrived at her destination. She was glad now that she never asked the monks to send word as soon as she had arrived and they had no knowledge her friends would be waiting to hear she was safe. Soon her friends would be worried and come to save her. She looked down at the arm draped over her waist. By her friends saving her, they would be able to save him as well. She frowned at the thought that Sesshoumaru had been through so much. He lost everyone he knew and then was captured and tortured, expecting to have sex with the very people who killed the ones closest to him. She could only imagine how much he must be suffering.

Suddenly Sesshoumaru bolted up from behind her, snarling and growling while pulling her behind him to shield her from sight. The sound of the doors opening soon brought the sight of Hiro bringing them breakfast with a large smile on his face. It was clear the taiyoukai wanted to lunge and hopefully grab the monk, but he refused to move so her nude body wouldn’t be seen.

“Well he certainly has taken a shine to you,” Hiro commented as he opened the cell just enough to slide a tray that had fruit, rice, and raw meat on it “He’s never behaved like this before. I guess we just needed someone he knew”.

She glared from behind the taiyoukai “Let us go”.

“Not until we see the results,” he retorted.

“If a baby is born, what are you going to do with it?” She asked and didn’t receive an answer. Instead he just turned and left “that monster” she mumbled, startled when she saw him return…with the stick “leave him alone!” She demanded, “he’s been through enough!”.

“We need to assure you are impregnated,” he smirked and then jammed the taiyoukai in the arm.

Sesshoumaru snarled, flinching to avoid the needle that pierced his arm and bumping into her in the process, nearly knocking her over. The monk then left and the inu wasn’t trying to fight the drugs as hard this time around. He turned to face her and then grabbed her, positioning her on her hands and knees, and started grinding his hips against her. His erection prodded around her entrance until it found her hole and he pushed in. Immediately pulling himself almost all the way out he slammed himself back in, encouraged by her moan he repeated the motions. When she gasped and cried out, he pulled out and rammed back in harder.

“E-easy” she breathed, she was still sore from the day before, but he didn’t heed her words and continued being rough. She groaned as she felt him thrust again making her feel pain as well as pleasure. Within a few minutes his cock was swelling inside her as he placed his head on her shoulder, grabbing her hips roughly and thrusting for all he was worth. Soon his body tensed, he grunted as he nipped her shoulder, and released his seed inside her once more “ouch” she mumbled. She had no idea how much more those monks planned to send Sesshoumaru into a lustful frenzy, but she hoped it stopped soon. Her body already couldn’t handle much more. She felt him pull out and sighed, her eyes then widened when she felt his tongue lick her entrance.

 Kagome gasped and quickly pushed on his head to get him away. Sesshoumaru complied with a snarl and levelled her with a red eyed glare. She froze, not wanting to make him mad. When she didn’t move, he returned to lick her folds. Why was he doing this? He continued for a few moments before he released her and she noticed that the sore pain she felt had lessen. What had he done? Either way she decided she was grateful for the relief.

3 weeks in and no signs of being rescued. Hiroshi let a hopeful Kagome know they had sent word to her friends she has arrived safely. After all, they didn’t want her friends to worry about her. It dashed her hopes of being saved and worse was she knew she was pregnant. She noticed her stomach was already starting to protrude and it terrified her how quickly everything was happening. She knew dogs in her world were pregnant for about 2-3 months, was it the same for inu youkai? Would it be the same for her? Another round of questions now going through her head were along the lines of since the jewel was in her body did it make her insides to be similar to a youkai? Would this kid be born hanyou or full youkai? There was just no way she could get answers to these questions. The taiyoukai was still being kept in a lustful state using the daily injection he received as well as an incense the monks had created.

Kagome sighed at her situation as she sat in her cell. The sound woke Sesshoumaru from his nap that he usually had after their more intense interactions. He moved closer to her and began sniffing her. After he seemed assured nothing was wrong, he pulled her close and rested his head gently on her stomach. She was sure he could hear the heart beat and his behaviour was slowly changing she noticed. At the start it was sex, eat, sex, sleep, and repeat. Now he was becoming more responsive to any sounds she made and frequently checked on her, especially around her stomach. If she had any doubt of being pregnant the taiyoukai’s behaviour was a positive confirmation.

4 more weeks and Kagome found herself looking 7months pregnant. Being in the cell for so long she found she was going a little stir crazy and dying for some intelligent conversation. She had no desire to talk with the slimy monks and the taiyoukai was still prisoner to his baser side. Throughout the 7 weeks she was finding she experienced no morning sickness and no cravings. She did have mood swings though as there had been a few times where she snapped at Sesshoumaru to get a hold of himself so they could break out. That had only resorted in him displaying his dominance by giving her an energy draining round of sex, but even then, she had noticed how gentle he was and making sure he didn’t hurt her or their child.

Sesshoumaru’s aggression towards the monk grew the further along in her pregnancy. He lashed out stronger and quicker than before. One monk had gotten too close to the bars and had no time to retreat when the inu managed to break free of his chains and grabbed the monk’s arm, tearing it clean off. The situation caused Hiroshi and Hiro to take different alternatives to bring them their meals. Using long poles to slip the food between the bars and they kept their visits short and seldom in order to keep the taiyoukai calm so he wouldn’t break out of the cell.  

Hearing a noise brought Kagome from her thoughts. Turning, she saw Sesshoumaru waking from his nap and begin looking around with his red eyes as he sat up. She quickly walked over to him before he could get angry about her absence and placed a hand on his head. He looked up at her, gave a contended growl, and had her sit in his lap. Placing a hand on her stomach they sat in comfortable silence as they felt the baby give the odd kick. Sitting in the cell, day after day, week after week, Kagome could only think and wonder what was going to happen when she gave birth. Would she even survive the birth having no midwife or modern technology? Were those monks going to kill her even if she did survive? What were those vile monks going to do to this baby after it was born? She could only imagine the experiments and torture this baby would go through.

A tear slid down her face at her thoughts and she leaned further into the youkai. While he didn’t speak, she found him a great source of comfort with his presence. Quietly she mumbled out, “I’m so scared”.

He seemed to sense her fear and held her a little tighter. Soon he laid her down while he started sniffing her stomach, nuzzling it occasionally. Slowly he moved his way up, stopping to take a breast in his mouth, and suckled it. She gave a quiet gasp, not used to him doing anything other then having sex or licking her vagina when she was sore from all the sex. There was something different about this. He wasn’t rushing like usual and he was actually doing some foreplay. One of his hands grabbed opposite from the breast he was suckling and began massaging the nipple. She threw her head back and moaned. Eventually he switched breasts to give them even attention while rubbing his swelling member against her entrance.

The sensation was strange, but Kagome found it quite pleasurable as she buried her fingers into the taiyoukai’s hair and moaned his name. It seemed to encourage him as he gently pushed his cock into her wet pussy. The gentle way in which he was treating her was a vast difference from the rushed and rough pace she had gotten used to instead he moved steady and unhurried. She felt him release her breast from his mouth and her eyes widened as she gasped when he took her mouth with his. Taking full advantage of her gasped he slipped his tongue to explore her depths. Enjoying the sensations, she ended up closing her eyes and leaning into the kiss. His hands gripped her waist as his pace increased in his eagerness.

Kagome could feel pressure building down low and she wasn’t sure what was happening, but her moans got louder. Sesshoumaru released her lips to give attention to her neck as his tempo increased. She could feel the pleasure mounting and when he tensed, something snapped in her as she yelled out his name. As they calmed down, Kagome remembered the time when she spoke to her high school friends about sex and how a woman felt when she cummed. Did she cum? She had to admit it felt like everything that had been described so she must have.

“Miko” came a gravely voice.

Kagome glanced as the taiyoukai lifted his head. Her eyes showed her shocked when she saw golden eyes staring at her “Sesshoumaru!” She gasped, but how? The incense was still burning strongly so how was he able to regain his sensibility. However, she noticed it seemed to be fleeting as his eyes turned red again, but it gave her hope. The taiyoukai was coming back despite the lust inducing incense.

Another 3 weeks passed. Kagome began to see the gold seeping through the taiyoukai’s red eyes and occasionally he managed call her miko, but had yet to say anything beyond that or show any other signs he was gaining control of himself. With the monks seldom visiting they hadn’t found out about the break through that was going on and she was thankful for that. She was now hopeful that Sesshoumaru would come to his senses and she hoped it would be really soon.

Kagome winced as she felt a cramp and placed her hand on her side. Taking a few deep breaths, she waited for the pain to pass and tried to calm herself down. She was fairly positive she was feeling contractions and be in labour at any time. Was she far enough a long? She wasn’t sure and could only hope the baby would be born healthy. She was very frightened at the thought of giving birth, especially since she would be doing it as natural as it came, which meant, no pain meds. Hearing a growl, she turned to look at her companion as he moved around becoming increasingly agitated and she was sure it was because he could sense what was happening with her as he had started pacing in the cell.

“Kagome, how are you today?” Hiroshi asked as he came into sight.

She glared and instead of answering him, turned her back to him. Every time he came around lately, he had taken to staring at her almost lustfully, it creeped her out. She couldn’t even cover herself because her clothes couldn’t fit her big belly and they never brought blankets so she could keep warm. She had to fully rely on the taiyoukai for everything. He was by her side immediately and gently pushing her behind him to block her from the monk’s view. She still had not gotten an answer to one question she desperately wanted to know “what are you going to do with this child?”

“We want to know if it’s full youkai or not, if it is immune to miko powers or not” Hiroshi answered “once we get our answers we will dispose of the abomination”.

She gasped and looked out from behind the taiyoukai “and you have the nerve to call youkai monsters! You’d experiment on an innocent baby? You’d kill an innocent child? You are not monks; you do not value the lives of innocents nor do you protect! You are no monks!” She shouted. Suddenly she felt like she peed her self and quickly looked down to see clear liquid pooling on the ground. She knew immediately what it was and felt her panic grow.

“Well perfect timing” the monk chuckled “we will be checking on you frequently, do have a safe and healthy birth”.

Kagome glared as he walked away, but then gripped Sesshoumaru’s arm tightly “I hope you come to your senses really quick, whether you want this child or not, it’s coming and it needs your protection”.

Sesshoumaru turned around to face her and placed a hand on her stomach as he stared at it “mine”.

She was unsure what it meant that he spoke and his eyes were still red, but she felt he was saying he would protect their child. It helped her feel a little calmer, but she wouldn’t be able to relax until they were free from the horrid monks. Another pain gripped her, feeling worse than she had felt so far, she gripped the taiyoukai roughly and whimpered. She remembered watching shows with women giving birth and one thing doctors always told them was to take steady breaths. Taking a deep breath, she released it slowly and found it it did help a little, but knew it wouldn’t work when the harder pain came. She began pacing in the cell in hopes that it would help, but a few minutes later an intense pain hit her and she leaned against the wall, letting out a small cry.

Sesshoumaru was by her side and helping her down to the ground in an instant. He gave her sides a rub and sniffed her over. When another contraction hit her, he allowed her to grip his hand until the pain passed. The monks increased their checks, which put the taiyoukai on edge and he lashed out against the bars many times in attempt to get his hands on a monk and melt them. They were smart and kept their distance and visits very short to just check the miko’s progress before leaving again.

An hour later and Kagome’s struggled not to let her self scream and had taken to biting her hand to help keep her as quiet as possible. She could feel her vagina stretching to allow the baby to pass and it hurt so bad. However, she didn’t want to scream too much and alert the monks that the baby was nearly there. She had to protect this baby at all costs. Out of the corner of her eye she noticed the taiyoukai had settled between her legs as she took a deep breath and pushed once more. She was completely shocked when she looked back at Sesshoumaru and noticed his eyes were completely golden.

He glanced at her “the pup is nearly out, one more push should do”.

She nodded as she felt another contraction hit. Taking a deep breath, she then pushed and let out a cry as the pressure finally released. Breathing heavily, she heard a whine and looked between her legs to see Sesshoumaru holding a silver puppy dog “full youkai?”

He gave a nod, “it would appear so” he answered as he moved around and handed the pup to her. Hearing the monks approaching, he let his eyes bleed red.

Hiro walked in first “Hiroshi, she’s given birth”.

“That is some exciting news” the monk said as he walked in, with a stick.

Kagome panicked, but didn’t have the strength to move “what are you going to do?”

“Just a sedative for the youkai so we can safely enter to take the baby” Hiroshi answered as he handed it off to his brother.

Kagome paled as she watched Hiro jab the stick in. Sesshoumaru attempted to move, but got caught under the arm “stop!” She screamed as she began sobbing “just stop!” She didn’t want this child to suffer at the hands of these monsters. What was she going to do? She saw the taiyoukai slump and the monks poke him a few times to determine he was out before they opened the cell and walked in. She tried to shield her child from their grasp, but could feel hands prying her arms apart as she screamed at them to get away. When they pried one of her hands loose, she swung her arm, slapping and even using her nails to scratch wildly at them.

“Come on, give it up!” Hiroshi yelled “it doesn’t even look like a human baby! How the hell can you be so attached to it?”

“Because it’s my child!” She cried, “it’s an innocent life and doesn’t deserve what you plan to do to it!”

Suddenly, Kagome heard a gurgle and felt them stop pulling at her. Opening her eyes, she saw Sesshoumaru standing, with gold eyes, as he had his hands pierced through each man’s chest. When they stopped twitching, he shook them off and looked at her “I will be back”.

Seeing him turn to leave, she called out “wait! Where are you going?”

He glanced at her “you are in no condition to travel and we will not spend another minute in this cell. I am going to clean this place of its filth so we can move to a cleaner and more comfortable space” seeing her nod he turned and left.

Justice was quick as the youkai lord raced through the halls and rooms to deliver each corrupted monk a death sentence. Once he was sure every monk had been dealt with, he dragged the bodies outside and proceeded to melt them. After he was sure there were no traces of the monks, he found a room that had a clean futon and went to gather the miko and his pup. He carried her gently through the halls to the room he picked and set mother and child on the futon. Making sure they were comfortable, he left to see what their kitchen supplied so he could prepare a decent meal. Meat, crackers, fruits and already prepped rice made for a fine meal he brought back to the room.

They ate in silence while the pupped slept soundly next to its mother. Kagome managed to figure out it was a male pup, but she wasn’t really surprised. Seemed every inu she met was male and she was even wondering if there were female inu. After they finished the miko looked at the larger male, unsure where to start.

He looked at her, seeming to understand her predicament “why were you here?”

“I was invited to come here and learn from the monks and mikos here” she responded, “Kaede knew this place and was sure it would be a good place to come and learn the holy trade from. Unfortunately, none of us knew it had been corrupted and so I came here, but I could tell something was off. I didn’t listen to my gut to leave immediately and I ended up drugged and in the cell with you. What do you remember?”

“Everything” he answered.

Her eyes widened “everything? Everything! And you let everything happen and didn’t stop any of it?” She nearly shrieked.

“Remembering and not having control over one’s body does interfere with the ability to stop anything. I had been forced into a lustful state for quite some time and could barely control my actions. You are lucky I had enough reason so heal your core, to ease your pain, from my rough treatment or it would have been worse” he growled at her, at her silent nod he continued “what those foolish monks did not realize is that I build immunity to new poisons as I’m introduced to them and if they knew anything about youkai they’d know that once offspring were born they take top priority over everything, including intercourse”.

She calmed down once hearing his explanations, “so those times I saw your eyes becoming gold, was that you fighting the poison or was your youkai getting ready for taking care of a child?”

“My immunity to the poison was basically built up” he answered, “once you showed signs of going into labour, I started being able to have better control over myself once more”.

She gave a nod “I think I get it” she looked down at the pup sleeping next to her, “is he really full blooded or is he hanyou that looks full blooded?”

“From my observation he appears to be full blooded” the taiyoukai said, “did you know you had the ability to birth full youkai?”

She shook her head. “I know I was the reincarnation of Kikyo, born with the shikon no Tama in my body, but the idea that it affected me in such a way wasn’t even a thought” she gently petted the pup, “even seeing him, touching him, I’m still having a hard time believing this actually happened”.

“Yet it did, though the end result did not happen the way I wanted” he commented, almost sounding like he was annoyed, “pathetic monks ruined my plans”.

“What do you mean?” She asked, confused as she turned to him.

“Rin had managed to get me to admit that I had interests in you” he confessed as he moved closer to her surprised form “she had even talked me into going to your village to discuss a courtship”.

Kagome felt her brain short circuit as it tried to catch up to what was being said. When it did, she felt her eyes water “you were coming to see me when this all happened” at his nod the tears came down, “Rin told me that there was a time when monks attacked you and you managed to fight them off, what happened this time?”

Sesshoumaru reached over to picked the pup up. He inspected him for a moment before he spoke “I stopped putting the effort into the fight after Rin was killed. I knew I couldn’t bring her back since she had already been brought back by tenseiga once before. I let them over power me in hopes they would kill me too, but they didn’t. I then assumed they would imprison me for a time before killing me, but by the time I realized exactly what they were doing the concoction they made had already begun working”.

“The mikos?” She wondered.

“Some were innocent and some were up to seeing if they would be the one to breed with me” he responded “the first one I realized was innocent I left her alone, however when the monks saw I was not going for her they took her and since they did not want her alerting the others to what was happening they killed her…brutality. I realized I had enough control over my state that I could give them quick and far less painful deaths”.

Kagome nodded her understanding “so you started killing them when they were brought in to spare them the torture and you took me because you know what fate awaited me if you didn’t” silence consumed the room. Both of them not sure what to say next, but she knew they needed to figure out what direction they were going to go “so…how do we proceed from here?”

The pup whimpered and the taiyoukai returned him to his mother to get warmed by her in the blankets, he then stared at her “it had been my plan to ask to court you and if things progressed well then we would be mated and have a pup later. However, the monks have accelerated those plans by forcing us to have a pup before having even established a relationship. I do not want us to rush anything just because we have a pup now, but I still wish to court you”.

Kagome blushed over the fact he was interested in her. She had always found him attractive and now she knew him in the most intimate of ways “I would like to get to know you better as well Sesshoumaru” at his nod she looked down at their pup “What should we call him?”

“Kishi seems fitting” he suggested.

She nodded “yeah, I like it, Kishi it is” she couldn’t help think about what would happen when she returned to the village and gave a nervous chuckle “Inuyasha is going to be thrilled when he hears about what happened”.

“Hnn” Sesshoumaru responded “he’ll just have to come to accept the situation and that I will be around”.

“Yeah” she said nervously while her mind was picturing Inuyasha’s reaction to seeing the taiyoukai and learning what happened. She almost groaned at the fighting she knew was going to happen as the hanyou blames the taiyoukai in some way. She was brought out of her thoughts when she felt her hand being taken into a bigger set of hands.

He looked at her “everything will be alright”.

She smiled and nodded “you’re right” flashes of the hanyou throwing a tantrum and attacking his brother continued to play in her mind, “probably” she added nervously.
