chapter one : opportune time

"Come on Kagome, it is only for a week " said the lady of the Eastern territories as she tried ro convince her stubborn adopted daughter .

the lady was sitting across from her adopted daughter with her hands gesturing wildly in the air. she had long dark brown hair that reached up to her knees. She was quite skinny with the perfect curves of a lady. her eyes were deep green and she was wearing light make up . she had on a beutiful homey kimono by the color of gray and violet 

"I have already given you my answer mother, it is NO so if you may stop convincing me " said stubborn young lady with such finallity in her voice that she picked up from the lady herself .

the young lady known as Kagome had silky black hair which was the same color of a moonless sky and light blue eyes. she also had rosy full lips which were slightly apart as she argued with her adoptive mother. she had untanned fair skin which was odd considering that she belonged to an ookami family.

she was wearing a homey kimono too, but hers was by the colors of different shades of blue.

she had her reasons !! 'why would they not see that every time I attend any royalties' gatherings it ends up in glarings and disgusted snorts from them ALL, I mean sure it WOULD be fun and all if it weren't for their dense sense of judging people and not knowing what they were so disgusted of ' thought Kagome as she sighed again .

she was human but with an ookami youkai life-span. it had to do with the bond between her and her adoptive family. but oh no the other lords and ladies wouldn't understand that they would always look her down upon because of her origins except the Lord of the Western lands for he was good friends and allies with her adoptive father and his human mate, Izayoi

but his two sons are just two different cases. his elder, Sesshoumaru is a full blooded inu youkai and may be the greates sight the eyes can see but, he sometimes seems just so emotionless, cold, bored, not interested in anything. he always has flocks of royal girls hovering and following him about but he does not pay them any mind.

his youngest Inuyasha, is so brash, nosy, loud. he is a hanyou so he is also looked down upon by some stupid ones. the others just keep in mind that he is related to the great InuTaisho and would break hell loose upon themselves if they did the stupid thing.

the lord of the Eastern territories happened to be passing by and heard the voices of his beloved mate argueing yet again with his adopted spoiled stubborn daughter 'she sure was not this troublesome when I found her twenty years ago in the woods, that bundle grew up to be a stubborn young lady' he thought for the millionth time over the years .

*FLASHBACK*

the young ookami lord was patrolling his lands when his nose caught something odd in the air which was not very far away.

sure enough he went in that direction and found himself in a meadow with a light small boracic cushion in the middle with a newborn baby on it. the baby was a girl he could tell by the sweet feminine scent of her, Jasmine and cherryblossom.

it was like a human just gave birth to an innocent little baby and left her for the wolves to feed on, literally. but no he was not about to go and slay this innocent creature like that ! not after seeing her face anyways.

she was starving and cold, it was a miracle that she was breathing that is, so he decided to take her under his care for the time being and let her decide her fate when she got old and mature enough to do that.

but still, the way he found her was a bit abnormal and suspicious . after getting over his stupor and knelt down next to the baby he noticed a small note on top of her, so he picked it up and read it :

"I cannot raise the child that so reminds me of you.. if our love was not meant to be then i do not want any memories of it and Definitely won't raise our offspring

please, if someone found this baby still alive and breathing take good care of her and name her 'Kagome'. there is also a small amount of coins as a reward and for supplies" .

oh he can smell the tears of this so called grieving woman on the letter and he can actually assume the whole story now : a young woman who fell in love with a so obviuos scum who only took her for granted and took also the most precious thing to any female then left her alone along with his unborn child to face off the wrath of her village .

if it were true then humans are just so selfish uncaring creatures. not that youkai are any better but there are always exceptios and in this rule of life and traits there were lots of exceptions-- .

he was brought out of his thoughts as another wail from this Kagome baby broke, she was staring at him with teary innocent eyes. he couldn't take it any longer so he did what he was planning to do when he first laid eyes upon this little baby.

he picked her up and ran at full speed to his castle.

weeks after that rumors started to spread across his lands about a lost baby, a dead mother who committed suicide, a very furiuos father . as the rumors stated : this father wanted his baby daughter and wasn't quite the good guy to entrust. even humans could tell that but he was very good at decieving and acting plus his good lookings helped him a great deal at that.

but no Ranmaru-Sama and Haruhe-Chan(the lady) would NOT give up the baby to that bad guy and would actually take the chances and believe the humans' rumors , for they became too attached to her to let her go. besides they formed a bond between them and the child, to live as long as they do and raise her as their own until the time comes.

and of course a man who couldn't handle a woman in love would definitely not know how to take care of the baby. And the mother actually stated in her last letter to take good care of the child to whoever found her alive, did she not ?

as months had passed from those first weeks his mate's uneasiness at first quickly Dissipated into a complete love between a mother and a daughter.. he was actually pleased himself at the results, for their own pup was on her way to be delivered to this life.

he cant quite blame anyone who loved this child of few months for her eyes would cast a charming spell upon anyone who saw her.

*END FLASHBACK*

now they live a happy family, him, his mate, Ayame, Kagome ..

and now he was holding the bridge of his nose and readying himself for the headache to come and holding himself with his utmost self-descipline-- until it was all eerily quite. he looked up to see a satisfied Ayame walking away from the former source of the noise in the castle with a huge grin that went from ear to ear plastered on her face.

'I think I already know what happened there' he thought as he knocked on the door and came in.

****

their voices were getting higher by the second ! and it REALLY disturbed her peace atmosphere of quiteness that helped her to write a loving poem about her secret-ookami-lover. sure it wasn't the first time to be disturbed in that way but she couldn't help the spark of hope after every arguement that it would be the last. but oh no.. no such thing would happen, they'd have an arguement every 'opprotune time' .. so she did the only thing that would make them stop.

she walked down to her 'sister's bedchambers with her sparkling green eyes that looked similar to her mother's and reddish soft-curly hair and yet again another homey kimono but with the colors of yellow and green.

KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK,

she was welcomed by the face of her irritated mother and stepped inside.

"Do you always have to act so childish and argue over unvarnished things such as these ?" asked the oh so innocent Ayame as she sat down next to her sister and put her arm over her shoulder.

"It is not unvarnished as you claim Ayame, this is a very important occasion that demands all our attendence in mere hours" replied Haruhe-chan as she stopped her pacing and faced her two most precious daughters in the whole lands.

"And wouldn't my dearest sister want to attend a so important occasion ?" asked Ayame again.

"Because I do not want to meddle with those self-centered royalties, all they think about is themselves, HONOR which is ranked by your gregarious status mind you, wealth, and you know what else... i just don't want to go mother" wailed Kagome as she sighed for the hundredth time in an hour or so .. come to think of it, how many hours had they spent just argueing pointlessly like that ?

Ayame smiled at this and hugged her sister and told her in her most serene voice

"Heed them no mind Kagome for to us honor is something gained by your traits, achievements and all that good stuff that really counts" she stood up and finished what she said.

long moments passed as it seemed eternity as both mother and daughter awaited the answer of their beloved Kagome..

"I have changed my mind and am actually convinced by Ayame's words... thank you Ayame... you are truely priceless and the best" Kagome finished as she too stood up and hugged her adoptive mother and apologized over and over on her brash comments and unthinking words.

'besides I will get to see the eldest son of InuTaisho, Sesshoumaru i know he is not interested in me or in any other lady but he seems so mysterious and i would actually like to figure him out... ' Kagome thought as she hugged her mother even tighter

Ayame exited and went back to writing her poem about her beloved prince, 'well at least I will get to see him in few days' she smiled at that and got the oh so needed inspiration to finish her poem about him.

****

Ranmaru-sama entered the chambers of his beloved daughter and saw them in the most tender moment he loved so much. they were hugging and he could smell the slight salty fragrance that were Kagome's tears. he could also hear her soft apologies and couldn't help the smile that graced his lips and the softening in his eyes.

after quite some time and all was settled that they were leaving in the morning to the House Of The Moon which belonged to his loyal friend and ally, Toga-Sama.
