((Chapter 8))
Kagome watched Kouga out from beneath her hooded eyes. It seemed to true to be real... But he was here. And alive. He felt alive. She'd touched him and he was alive. Kouga ate as if he hadn't had a real meal in forever. She doubted that he ever cooked. Guilt tugged at Kagome because as she looked up at him she couldn't actually bring herself to say she was sorry over Inuyashas death. She tried to make herself feel the pain but... She couldn't. Her heart wasn't healed because she was still scared. She felt guilty as she stared at him, noticing how much he had changed over the years. He'd matured and his body was more defined. His muscles clearly seen and even the stance in his walk showed his strength. He seemed easy going but they all knew Kouga could be deadly.
She still couldn't get Kougas words out of her head. He had told them all that he had thought that he was dead. He'd woken up in terrible pain, his chest burning and... Kouga still didn't know how he had survived, but he had. And by the time he had been well enough everyone had been gone. Far away where even Kouga hadn't been able to catch there scent except for a tiny hint. Thats what had led him up to these mountains. And to Kougas surprise, he'd been met with a rather disturbing...Sight. He had been waiting for years to pay Inuyahsa back. For everything, for making him fail Kagome. Then he'd seen Kagome. And then Inuyasha. The thing was, Kouga had been following them for days. He knew he'd had to wait for the right moment...
How long had Kouga actually known they were in the area? He had stayed away purposfully? The thought slightly ate at Kagomes nerves. As if sensing her gaze on him, Kouga turned and met Kagome with a bright smile. Kagome felt a flutter in her stomach. Kouga turned to face her fully and then pushed a small tray of fruit at her. "Eat. You need it."
Kouga had always thought at one time that maybe, just maybe, Kagome would one day be a part of his pack. Of course in his thoughts Kagome would have been his mate but still... Kouga could see the hurt in her eyes with the knowledge that Inuyasha was dead but he could also see the relief there and her joy at seeing him again. With Inuyasha out of the way things would be a lot easier now. Maybe. Kouga glanced at the little girl, the one called Mai, that was sitting beside Kagome and chatting endlessly and calling Kagome "Mommy". Kagome was definatly not that girls mother so why was she calling her that...
Kagome laughed at something that Mai said and popped a grape past her lips and Kouga stared at her lips for a moment. Kagome seemed so at home here, though he could SMELL that she was nervous about something.
Kouga couldn't believe that they were accepting him back so happily. They weren't mad that he hadn't come back right away. Then again, he'd had his reasons. Reasons that were his own and his alone.
One of the men lifted there fist up in the air in a kind of "toast" to Kouga. "Heres to Kouga, our leader, finally being back amoung us!" The others soon followed and he watched as Kagome smiled and lifted the small wooden cup in her hand as a toast. Kagome was part of his pack and things were actually starting to go in a way he wanted.
------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------
Kagome couldn't deny the fact that she had wanted to spend a little time with Kouga. After all, they had been close friends at one time. But Kouga had been kept busy, everyone wanted time with him.
Mai crawled up Kagomes furr blanket slowly and then curled up next to Kagome. "Mommy...tell me a story." Kagome had told Mai stories of her world, of the things that happened there and sometimes...
"I have a new one, but you can't tell anyone." Kagome lowered her voice, feeling amusement twirl inside her at the light she saw twinkle in Mais eyes. Mai nodded eagerly and turned to face Kagome.
"Once upon a time there was a Demon prince. A wolf demon prince. He lived with his pack, he used to hunt and kill humans just for the fun of it until one day..." Kagome trailed off, keeping the smile from her lips. Mai loved to hear her stories and Kagome loved to leave her in suspense. "Until one day he kidnapped a young girl. He couldn't help himself and he thought, no he knew he loved her. Somehow it happened over such a short time before someone else took her from him..." Kagome didn't tell the story exactly as she remembered it. She altered it because she knew exactly what she was telling. "... They always fought ... He would always know when she was near ... She'd always tell him no ... " The story went on until Kagome finally saw Mai's eyes start to drift. "Until the girl realized that maybe she cared about him a little too." Kagome whispered, not knowing that across the cave a pair of ears twitched at the last sentence.
