InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Angel ❯ Chapter 7 ( Chapter 7 )

Sadly, they aren't mine. I only use them for my wicked fantasies.

Chapter 7

Sesshomaru and Neaveh came into the living room together, holding hands. Daniel jumped up as soon as they came in.

"Miss Nev, are you ok? You've been in your room all day.", he asked.

"I'm just fine Daniel. I was spending some time alone with Sesshomaru, and we have an announcement to make.", she said.

She took a deep breath, "Sesshomaru and I are getting married. We will be moving to Japan."

Daniel's eyes grew huge and filled with tears, "No, you can't. You'll have your own babies and forget about me."

Nev gave him a soft smile and knelt in front of him. "What makes you think I could ever forget about you? You are my baby even if you didn't grown inside me, you grew in my heart and that's the most important place."

"Really?", he asked.

"Really.", she answered.

"I can't go with you to Japan.", he looked upset.

Sesshomaru squatted down to him, "That's why I'm going to Japan to clear some things up, then I'm coming back to get you. We will find a way for you to come with us. In the meantime, I need you to make sure that Neveah is protected. Could you do that for me?"

Daniel's chest grew with pride, "Yes, sir, I will do my best."

"That is all I'll ever ask of you. To do your best.", Sesshomaru held his hand out and Daniel shook it.

"Daniel, why don't you take Kyo and go play? I need to tell Nev my surprises, okay?", Cookie asked suddenly. Daniel nodded and motioned for Kyo to follow.

As soon as they were out of earshot, Cookie broke into a huge grin. "I got two letters in the mail today. Want to know what they are?", she waved them around.

Sesshomaru picked up on Neveah's sudden excitement. "Yes.", her words almost breathless.

"The first one states that I am now a full-fledged foster parent. The other I don't know. It's addressed to you.", she handed Nev the other envelope.

Nev took it and opened it with fingers that shook. She pulled the letter out and began to read. Her eyes flew to Sesshomaru's, "It seems I have a court date two weeks from now to hear the final ruling on Daniel's adoption. You know what this means don't you?"

Sesshomaru smiled at her, "Why don't you tell me?"

"It means he's mine. That I am his mother.", her eyes filled with tears and she flew into his arms.

Sesshomaru enfolded her into his embrace, pleased that one more obstacle had been overcome that was keeping his angel from him. Now he had to get his own obstacle out of the way.

"I hate to break this love fest up, but what are you going to do about the house and the other kids?", Cookie asked.

"Well, I'm going to notify the state I'm leaving. They'll find other placement for them.", Nev said.

"How about I take over here? I'm sure we could do it, then it would be easier for them to say good bye.", Cookie had tears in her eyes. Nev was the sister she didn't have, she had lived with her since her parents took her in.

"Cookie, that would be perfect. I would feel so much better knowing the rest of the children were well cared for.", Nev smiled.

Sesshomaru was pleased. What he thought would be a long process, had been cleared up in a matter of moments.

Sesshomaru told Inuyasha they were leaving in the morning. That he would return to get Neveah and Daniel.

As the women chattered, with Kagome talking via online translator, and planned everything that needed to be done. Inuyasha talked to Sesshomaru, "Don't you think I should stay until you return?"

"No, I think she will be fine. The only ones to know of her are you and Kagome. Kagura only knows that I was caught in Pittsburgh, not exactly where I was, and I plan on returning in less than two weeks.", Sesshomaru stated.

"I feel uneasy about this, Brother.", Inuyasha stated.

"Everything will be fine.", Sesshomaru said.

"At least finish the marking process, so that you can communicate to her.", he advised.

"No, this Sesshomaru wishes to make our bond complete on my lands. I want her to have the pomp and ceremony if she wants it.", he announced.

Inuyasha nodded his head and cast a worried look to Kagome. He knew he would be flying back here as soon as possible. He felt he would be needed.

It started to get late and Sesshomaru announced that he and his mate were going to bed. Then he advised Inuyasha and Kagome do the same, that they had an early day.

The next day, Nev took Sesshomaru, Inuyasha, Kagome, and Kyo to the airport. He kissed Nev goodbye, surprising everyone with his public display of affection.

Twenty-four hours later, Kagura sat before Sesshomaru in his office. She didn't like the smell of human that seemed to be all over him, nor his change in demeanor to her. He had become very formal with her.

Sesshomaru sighed to himself, "How to start this?"

Kagura took the problem out of his hands, "Why do you reek of human?"

"Actually, that is what I wanted to talk with you about. I know that I have mentioned the possibility of you and I mating. I find that I can not mate you. While in America, I found my mate and have already claimed her.", he told her.

Kagura's mouth fell open, "Don't tell me you mated a HUMAN!?!? You gave up having full demon pups for hanyou?!?!" She was livid, all these years she yearned for what he began to consider and now it's snatched right back. That bitch would pay and so would Sesshomaru. She stood and stormed out of his office, back to hers where she packed her things and left.

Once she reached her home, she got on the computer and tracked down Sesshomaru's whereabouts during the time he was in America. She used the GPS system the his company kept on all cell phones in case help was needed. All she had to do was put the date in that he was there. She wrote down the location and not caring, flew off to exact her revenge.

Watching the activity around the house, she was more than surprised at all the children that lived there. She watched until she figured out which one it was, then waited until they went inside. She brazenly walked up to the door and knocked.

Cookie answered the door, "May I help you?"

Kagura gave her a bright smile, "Yes, can I speak with Nev? My name is Kagura and Sesshomaru sent me."

Cookie found it a little odd that she used Nev, when Sesshomaru only called her Neveah. She didn't say anything, but invited her in and led her to the livingroom. "Have a seat. I'll get Nev.", she said.

She came back a few moments later, with the other woman. "Nev this lady said that Sesshomaru sent her.", she explained.

Kagura stood and quickly bowed to her, "Yes, I came to meet his new mate. May I speak with you privately?"

Nev looked at Cookie, "Why don't you start lunch for the kids?"

"I'll be in the kitchen, if you need me.", Cookie didn't like this one bit.

Nev turned to Kagura, "Now, how may I help you?"

Nev never heard the front door open and Daniel come in. He stopped outside the door and listened when he heard Sesshomaru's name.

"As I said I came to meet Sesshomaru's mate. Do you know anything of youkai custom?", she asked.

Nev shook her head no. "I thought so. I feel that you should know what a mate's role is. So I came to tell you before you finished the process and couldn't leave.", Kagura said.

"You are Sesshomaru's mate and will get the respect that your position will get, but I'm to be his wife. You will be responsible for caring for and raising your children and mine as well. Although, I am only having one child. So that he has an heir to his title and lands.", she smiled at her.

"The children that you and he create will be as slaves to my child, their only role in life will be to wait on him. That includes that little boy who calls you Mommy.", Kagura smiled at Nev's white face and tear filled eyes.

"No, this isn't true. Kagome would have told me.", Nev moaned.

"My dear, Kagome would have been severely beaten if she said anything. Inuyasha wouldn't tell you, he is Sesshomaru's brother, but hanyou. Did you see that they traveled together?", she said.

Daniel didn't want to hear anymore. He didn't believe it, Kyo's Dad wouldn't hit his mom, he could tell. He knew Sesshomaru wasn't like that, he would have tell her. He slipped away and went back outside, deciding to talk with his Mom about this.

"Oh my God, I can't do this, but, he said I would die.", she whispered.

"You haven't finished the process, so, there is a chance you may live through the illness that separation brings. I know he is due to come back soon. May I suggest you leave before he gets here. Trust me, he won't look for you. He'll return to Japan and look for another.", Kagura said.

Nev looked at her, "Thank you very much. I will be gone when he comes looking for me. Why did you tell me?"

"I feel you should come into this with your eyes wide open. I know what it's like to have someone in control of me.", she answered.

Nev walked Kagura to her door, then walked into the kitchen with a shell shocked look on her face.

Cookie started at the look on her face, "Are you okay?"

Nev plastered a smile on her face, "I'm fine. I tell you later. She was going over my duties as Sesshomaru's mate."

"All right, probably a laundry list huh?", Cookie asked.

"Something like that.", she answered, vaguely. She busied herself, helping with lunch, then cleaning up. Coming up with a plan to be gone and not miss her court date.

Daniel tried all day to get his Mom alone, but couldn't find a way. So, he tried to talk to her when she came in to kiss him goodnight, but, she brushed him off and got him tucked in. Telling him they would talk tomorrow, that she was very busy.

He closed his eyes and let sleep claim him, resolving to make her listen tomorrow.

When he opened his eyes he got a huge shock. He was no longer in his room, but a different room and beside him was his sleeping Mom.

He sat up and shook her, "Mom, where are we?"

Nev opened her eyes and grinned, "Surprise! I figured we had to much time on our hands before court and decided on a way to fill the time. After breakfast, we are going to Kennywood. Then tomorrow SandCastle. Everyday will be a new thing the zoo, museums, science center. We'll be so busy we won't notice the time, and before you know it, court day."

"But, Mom, what about Sesshomaru? Won't he be looking for us?", he demanded.

Nev gave him a bright smile, "I want this to be our special time, just you and I. Soon, it won't be just us."

Daniel didn't quite believe her, but decided to see what was going to happen. If she didn't talk with Sesshomaru soon, he would find a way to talk with him.

Nev put her cell on vibrate and dropped it in her purse. She wasn't speaking to anyone, she was making sure that he didn't find her.

She was afraid if he did, she wouldn't be able to tell him no. Daniel or her other children didn't deserve that kind of life. She was going to make sure it didn't happen, if it killed her to do it. Her stomach turned and pain shot through it, at her thoughts.

"All right, enough lazing around. Let's get dressed and go eat. We have a big day ahead of us.", she jumped up and opened her suitcase. She pulled out an outfit and went into the bathroom.
