Chapter 34

 

Jade waited patiently as Inutaisho found the words he was seeking. “I spent many years with Sesshomaru and knew him well, but I was unable to know Inuyasha. I am aware of everything that has happened with my sons, but I wish to be reborn as Inuyasha's son. This way my soul will know the son I was not able to know in this life.”

 

Jade just smiled warmly at the Western Lord. “I understand your decision Lord Inutaisho and am happy to grant your request.” She laughed softly to herself and saw the curious look she was given. “I'm actually relieved of your decision I'm not quite sure I could handle both you and Sesshomaru at the same time. I remember your younger days and you are more alike than either of you would like to admit.”

 

He gave her a mock growl while Lady Sakura laughed as well. At his growl towards her she laughed even more. “She is right koi, the two of you are more alike than you'll admit.”

 

Unfortunately Jade could not contain her laughter at his dejected look. “When the time is right I will call you to your new form. I know that Sesshomaru will understand your decision.”

 

Inutaisho bowed to her in gratitude. “I thank you Lady Jade for allowing me this honor to once more be with my sons even if it will be slightly awkward going from being the father to son.”

 

Sesshomaru lay next to his mate and was confused when she started laughing softly and nodded her head as if agreeing to something. `What is she doing.'?

 

Jade however was still laughing at the deceased Lord when she felt the pull to awake. “It is time for me to leave, but please do me one favor milord. Make sure you give Inuyasha hell. He nearly drove me mad when I first met him.”

 

The pure look of evil in his eyes could not be missed. “Of course, Lady Jade” he waited until she started to fade before adding, “or should I say Aunt Jade.” He couldn't help the laughter that rolled from him as she looked at him with astonishment on her face when she disappeared.

 

Jade woke to a splitting headache and not knowing where she was. She rolled to her side and lifted her upper body using her arms. “Kami, my head hurts.”

 

Sesshomaru came to his mate's side and touched her gently. “Are you alright, Jade?”

 

She looked up to see concerned golden eyes staring at her and smiled. “I'll be fine. I'm still a little weak. Your father has also come to a decision and decided to tell me while I was sleeping.” She was trying to sit up and was having a hard time when she was picked up and placed in Sesshomaru's lap. “Thank you.” Jade knew he was anxious for her to continue and took a deep breath. “I was informed by your father and Lady Sakura that both Kagome and I are now with pup. Your mother has asked me to make sure that I tell you how proud she is of you and sends her love as well. Inutaisho has told me that he spent many years with you and couldn't be more proud of what you have become. His regret is that he was unable to do the same with Inuyasha and wishes to return as his son so that his soul may know the son he was not able to in his previous life.” She watched as he took in her words and could see a slight anger there, but also understanding. “Sesshomaru, he loves you very much and is proud of the Lord you have become. Now it is time for him to know the son that did not know him.” The mischievous grin that appeared did not go unnoticed by Sesshomaru as he raised an eyebrow in silent question. “Besides I told Inutaisho to give Inuyasha hell for all the trouble he gave me when I joined their search.”

 

He couldn't help, but smile at his mate and her plans to make his brother's life hell. “I accept his decision and understand his reason behind his choice.'

 

Jade looked at him and grinned, “Besides there is no way I could deal with both of you at the same time. I'd be insane in no time.”

 

His eyes lit up in amusement and he couldn't suppress the chuckle that came out. “I'm just glad that you're alright and awake. Although I should punish you for not allowing me to protect you when you could have been hurt and lost the pup.”

 

“I'm sorry to have worried you, but I couldn't take the chance of anyone else being pulled into the portal by mistake.”

 

Sesshomaru held her gently taking in her scent. “You scared me Jade. I don't know what I'd do if you were hurt or I lost you.” He pulled away slightly to look into the eyes he loved so much. “I love you, Jade.”

 

Jade was stunned never before had he said those words to her. She looked into his eyes and for the first time saw the emotions that had long been hidden. Her hand came to rest on his cheek lovingly and smiled. “I love you, too.” The words had barely been said when she found herself in a passionate kiss that took her breath away. They were interrupted by a soft knock on the door and Sesshomaru growled his annoyance. “Come in,” said Jade as she rested her head against Sesshomaru's shoulder.

 

Kagome walked in with Inuyasha at her side. “I knew I felt you wake up. Everyone has been worried for you.”

 

Jade looked at her sister and grinned at Inuyasha. He saw the grin and started to back away slightly not trusting that particular grin that always meant trouble for him. “Um are you ok Jade?”

 

“I'm perfectly fine Inuyasha and have some good news for the both of you, but first if you don't mind I'd like to bathe and eat.”

 

“Of course Jade dinner will be served soon so we'll all meet in the dining room if it's ok with you.”

 

“That's fine.” She watched as they left and smiled at her mate. “Well since this is your castle will you please show me to the nearest hot spring.”

 

Sesshomaru picked his mate up and carried her to the hot spring knowing she was still weak. He brought her to his personal springs and sat her once more on the pillows while he disrobed. He turned to find her already slipping her yukata off her shoulders. The sight of her pale skin bearing his mark only increased his arousal as he helped her into the water. He knew that she was still to weak for intimacy and would wait.

 

Jade just sighed in contentment as she was placed in the warm water. “Kami this feels so good.” She looked up to see her mate watching with desire in his eyes. He sat behind her and reached to the side of the spring where jars were laid out for bathing. Sesshomaru grabbed a handful of lavender and started to once more wash her hair. When finished Jade slipped under the water to rinse hair clean. She came back up only to have his hands on her body washing it gently. Her head bowed in relaxation as his hands eased the stiffness of her muscles. Jade was enjoying the attentions of her mate and began to fall asleep when she felt him lift her out of the water to once more be sat on the pillows so he could gather her kimono. She stood and tried to walk, but nearly collapsed again.

 

Sesshomaru knew that she needed more time to regain her strength and caught her before she fell. “Your still exhausted Jade.” He picked her up bridal style and carried her to the dining room where everyone was waiting and set her down to his right as he took his rightful place at the head of the table.

 

Kagome smiled at her sister, but could also still see the fatigue in her eyes and knew she needed more rest. After everyone was done eating she stood and looked to her sister. “I have some good news I'd like to share with you Jade.” When she knew she had her attention she continued. “Inuyasha and I are going to have a pup.”

 

Jade smiled at her sister. “I already know and I too have a surprise. Sesshomaru and I are having one as well, but my surprise to you is that while I was resting Inutaisho came to me with his decision. He has decided to be reincarnated as your son.” At the look of astonishment on their faces she couldn't help but laugh. “I did however make sure that he gave me his word to give you hell Inuyasha in return for your torture of me when I joined your group.”

 

Inuyasha was stunned beyond belief. “My father will be my son,” he whispered.

 

“As unusual as it seems Inuyasha, yes. Although he will have no memories of his past life his soul will still be that of your father. This is his request because he wishes to be reunited with his sons. I don't normally grant these kind of requests, but he is a good friend so I granted it this once.”

 

Sango and Miroku had been listening to all of the good news and decided to add theirs as well. “We have come to our decision as well. Both Sango and I have decided to accept your offer to become family and eventually guardians as well. We have also decided to be married as quickly as possible so that we may begin our life together.” Everyone congratulated them and welcomed them to the family.

 

Jade looked to everyone the happiness radiating from her. “When we return to the palace we will perform the ceremonies. I just a little more rest to regain my strength.”

 

Sesshomaru had been watching his mate and noticed that she was tiring quickly so he once more carried her to their bedchambers. He looked down and noticed that she was already asleep and smiled. He gently lay her in bed and curled himself around her in a possessive manner as he too fell asleep. Jade slept for another two days while everyone prepared for the upcoming ceremonies.
