Chapter Sixteen, Secrets revealed and mating!
The knock could be heard again, "daddy?"
InuYasha scrambled out of the shower, taking Kagome with him. Giving her a towel he opened the closet door and took out two bathrobes. They both must of been his for when she dressed her self in it, it touched the floor and covered her hands.
InuYasha snickered a little at the scene before him, that was Kagome. Wearing a overly large robe, she looked to much like a midget in a giant's clothing.
Twisting the knob he opened the door, presenting a sleepy eyed Sorano. She first looked at her dad, than at Kagome and her eyes grew wide. The adults noticed how she blinked, as if not believing what she saw. Kagome jerked, hoping that the little angel wouldn't ask to many questions.
The hanyou was the first to speak, "Morning pup." He greeted his daughter, bending down to pick her up. Sorano let him, still staring at her father - wide eyed. Pure confusion displayed in her amber gaze, clearly to young to understand what had happened in there.
"Daddy, does Kagome know your secret?" The eight-year old asked, running a small hand across her fathers damp face. The whole keeping his identity hidden from the world, was something he'd taught his daughter early on. Sesshoumaru as well, but he had not ears like her dad did.
InuYasha chuckled low, but nodded. "She knows, now are you hungry? And by the way, why are you up already? It can't be more then six am."
Sorano rubbed her left eye, yawning. "I couldn't sleep, there is a monster under my bed. He was going like this," she imitated a few noises that made the couple freeze, it almost sounded like moans and gasps of lovers in ecstacy.
'She must have heard us, and the sounds filtered into her slumber...' Kagome thought, while InuYasha was to busy feeling somewhat bad for forgetting to keep quiet. He didn't want his little girl to be exposed to things like this... it would lead to questions he really wasn't ready to answer.
"Well..." InuYasha tried. "Since we're all up we can eat breakfast." Kagome noticed the sly change of subject. But Sorano was more then happy that they could eat, "she was hungy" , she claimed.
Walking into the kitchen, Kagome started to take out a bowl and the ingredients for pancakes. She herself, was not a heavy breakfast person. But she knew, by the looks of the two that now stood there next to her, they were.
While Kagome was mixing the batter InuYasha took his daughter to get dressed for the day, and also call the hospital - excusing himself from a days work. Sorano didn't have school on Thursdays, and the hanyou figured it would be a good time to go check out that apartment.
Coming back into the kitchen, InuYasha inhaled deep. It smelt wonderful, Kagome's own unique scent mixed with delicious breakfast dishes. Sneaking up behind her, he encircled her waist, where she stood scrambling eggs.
"You can go dress if you want, I'll take over." His voice but a whisper, but a sweet kiss was planted on her cheek, that made her stomach tingle.
Nodding, she turned only to brush past the man she'd come to care for so much she was sure it was love. Sorano stood in the door opening staring. Did this mean that Kagome was going to be her mommy? She could only hope..

Sesshoumaru sat in his office, swinging in his chair. It was way to early to do anything yet, but he had trouble finding sleep. The whole thing still irked deep in his core, why he had reacted on InuYasha's rage? He was pretty sure it had empowered him somehow, so much as the matter of fact that he'd lost control.
He was fast normally, but make it to the hospital in less then a few seconds was just mind-bothering, how had that been possible? There was one possibility that was farfetched, but somehow soothing. What if the answer to his question was as simple as, Sorano?
Ever since that girl was born, and brought into his house. He'd been watching over her like a hawk. It was not normal family love, it was deeper running in his blood - he saw her as his own pup.
Clearly he knew it was InuYasha's child, but still.... it was almost as if he'd given a part of himself, a part that was reserved for his offspring - if he ever had any.
Sesshoumaru grabbed the bottom of his chin, maybe it was time to have a pup on his own? He knew of course Sorano would always have a special place in his heart, but if he had children of his own, he wouldn't have to worry about losing control. He'd never admit it aloud, but it had scared the wits out of him. Always being a man of reasons, a man that knew what he was doing - always. Sesshoumaru was just simply scared to lose himself like that, again.
But at the same time, thoughts of kids scared him too. He really didn't want any, or did he? He was a strong person, he could handle anything! Right? Just that the thought of having little runts run around him, pulling his hair and drool all over him and his house, wasn't to pleasant.
The phone ringing brought him out of his thoughts, 'who could be calling at this hour?'
Picking it up he placed the cold material against his cheek, "Yes?"
At first there was just silence, "Who's there?" He tried, sounding more harsh trying to taunt the person on the other end to speak.
"Sesshou...maru?" A woman's voice so faint but he heard it was gasping over the line, making his demon blood freeze. "Rin?" What could have happened? Why wasn't she talking? Why did it sound like shuffling of feet, as if someone was running, in the background?
"Help.." Was the last word he heard her say before the line went dead.
Bolting out of his chair, Sesshoumaru wasted no time to run to his garage and climb aboard his fastest car. Racing out the driveway and out on the street only one thing was on his mind, she was hurt and he had to get to her.

Parking the car outside Rin's house, Sesshoumaru ran to the front door. Not even hesitating before he ripped it into shreds leaving nothing more then splinters spread across the porch.
Using his enhanced senses he quickly located the whereabouts of his woman, upstairs in the bedroom. Flying the flight of stairs, and crashing into the room he was greeted by a horrifying scene.
On the bed laid his Rin, his beautiful lady in a pool of blood. The walls was sprayed as well indicating she had been stabbed or worse almost hacked into pieces. Her pulse was low, so low he was fearing for her life. What could he do? There was no way to make it to the hospital in time, she wouldn't survive the ride!
Letting his demon completely take over, Sesshoumaru transformed into his normal form pricking his lip with a long claw. Turning her over on her stomach he ripped her nightgown away before letting his own blood drip down her spine to the small of her back, where it pooled. Forming the circle of mating, he knew it would give her a surge of his own powers.
That is, if she was really his intended one.
Minutes pasted, that seemed like hours for him. Keeping a steady lock on the small blood pool on her back, he could only pray his plan was working. He wasn't prepared to lose his Rin, not for anything.
If she was his mate, if the Kami-sama blessed their demon bonding - she would become pregnant and share his life span. His strength would be hers, and hers would be his. They would share everything, even their hearts.
A blue hue started to pulse around her ripped form, steadily growing filling the room with light and Sesshoumaru's lips with a smile. This was it, the moment of truth. If she was his, and he was hers - his symbol would grace her skin. Forever bonding the two together, making them one.
Slowly but surely Rin's heartbeat increased. Her breathing came in normal intakes, and her skin regained it's healthy pinkish hue. The blood on her back sunk through her skin - leaving nothing more then a small crescent moon - slightly glittering in the early morning sun that seeped through her bedroom window.
Rin sat up, rubbing her face and yawned. What a bad dream! She had dreamt that someone broke into her house and stabbed her! It was horrible, she couldn't defend herself. All her thoughts had been with Sesshoumaru, wanting to see his face and hear his voice just one last time.
Running a hand through her hair, she opened her brown eyes and looked around the room. Her blood froze in pure fear when she saw the blood in her bed and all over her wall, "What....happened?"
Feeling two strong arms around her waist, made her want to scream out! But somehow they emitted such powerful sense of safety and something more, something much deeper. Turning around slightly her eyes went wide. It was Sesshoumaru, or was it? Clearly she had never seen him like this before, his face painted? And his features more angelic!
"Sesshou....?" She whispered, making him turn her around to get a better look, he was gorgeous! Her heart hammered like a drum behind her rib cage, as his eyes clearly displayed love and something else. Something she'd only seen in a mans eyes when he looks at a woman who had given him everything. So deep and dark with an endless passion, it made her shiver.
"Rin." She heard him say her name as if it was for the first time. Completely forgetting the messy situation in her bedroom, Rin gave into the deep scorching feeling that pulsed through her blood - grabbing his neck in a steady grip while crashing her lips against his.
Sesshoumaru felt his heart roar in pure happiness. This was the way it was suppose to be, she had accepted him and his demon completely. Soon she would also know he had made her pregnant and would move in with him, for the rest of her life.
But the smell of blood, her blood still tickled his senses. He needed to know what had happened, before she made him surrender to the deep dark passion that was threatening to overtake him.
Breaking the kiss, he heard her let out a disappointed whimpering sound.
"Rin, listen to me. Who did this to you?" He questioned her, shaking her lightly to gain her attention. He felt her tremble, and quickly pulled his arms around her in a protective grip. "Please...tell me."
Rin swallowed hard before answering his question, not knowing what he would do. But knowing she didn't want him to go on a killing spree. But oddly she trusted him to make a good judgement, so she told him the whole story of her business that was competing with another.
"As you know," she started. "I own the Ah-Un clothing company." She felt him nod and urged her to continue. "For as long as I have had the success of my small shops across the globe, I've had competition."
Making herself more comfortable there in his lap, Rin bit her lip before she continued. "Kagura and Kanna Nakamura, two very successful women, own's another clothing line called, "Feathered Mirror". They've always been after to destroy mine, and I can't understand why... we don't even sell the same outfits."
Rin sighs deep before she yet again speaks, "there have been attempts on my life before, my car-breaks failing... a burning stick thrown into my window in attempt to burn down my house. But this morning...I was attacked. The person was wearing a dark ski outfit, I couldn't tell if it was a woman or not. But I am pretty sure it was them, the Nakamura sisters."
Sesshoumaru sat there feeling his blood boil by the second. How dare someone even think about harming what was his? He'd make em pay, that was for damn sure. Rin was his mate now, his wife - if you must. That meant he'd give his life to save hers, and right now he was pretty much ready to go chop some heads off.
However, Rin was also now pregnant. He couldn't leave her if he got caught and thrown in jail or whatever punishment he would receive. Of course, some small weak metal bars couldn't keep a demon like Sesshoumaru locked up. But he refused to live a life on the run, with Rin and their pup.
"I will deal with this," he stated with a calm cold voice. He'd have Totosai do some damage, that old man was sure good for something. However, he was now stuck making a promise to his woman as she was clearly concerned he would do something rash and stupid.
"Promise me you won't do anything so bad I can't ever see you again." Her hand on his cheek, and the clear fear in her eyes made him nod, "I promise."
Picking his bride up, the demon eased out of the room and into the bath chamber. This blood needed to come off, and the house required a good clean up. But also he wouldn't forget to call Totosai before the day was over.
