(A/N): Ugh! So stressed, three day week end! Yes! T.T
Entering his study Sesshoumaru takes a seat at the large darkwood desk there, scowling lightly at the piles of papers, scrolls and the like. The space was organized, but the size of paperwork he needed to do was . . . less than pleasant. He takes a scroll from the top of a pile and unrolls it, a treaty request from the leader of a small patch of land unclaimed by any of the four main youkai lords, north of his own. He sets it asside after looking it over, the youkai nor his people could do much for the west, however his land might be worth making the taiyoukai's own. He throws out a summons by the lord of the Southern Lands before standing, and making his way over the door
"Sesshoumaru-sama" Reika bows shortly to him
"General" he steps asside, letting her in and closing the door behind her "the report" He makes his way back to his desk but doesn't sit. She remains beside the bookcase set against the west wall, her hands clasped in front of her
"Two females" she makes a face "I suppose the Southern Lord though they'd have an easier time getting to me, gaining my trust. The first, Seika, a lower class of dog youkai but strong and agile. The second, Tsukiko, a wolf youkai, she's a strategist, though there's nothing impressive in the strength or agility departments. Both carry the symbol crest given to any youkai in the southern army, Seika on her lower back and Tsukiko on her hip, both were covered by a realitively undetectable magic spell. Seeing as the youkai giving physical evaluations can smell magiks it wasn't hard to detect"
"Just the two?" Reika nods "hn, I'll leave their removal to you" He gives her a look making his exspectations clear "I would recommend at least two of our warriors accompany you" Reika nods sharply, a slightly defiant look on her features
"I'll take to heart that recommendation, and do just that Sesshoumaru-sama" her chin raises slightly "however they will hardly be needed"
"Of course" Sesshoumaru raises a slightly amused eyebrow, before sending her a level look "you are dismissed, General"
"Thank-you my Lord, however I'll ask to speak out of turn" there's a slight pause
"Within reason that is fine" Sesshoumaru nods slightly in consent
Reika turns completely towards the silver haired youkai, bowing her head slightly and dropping to one knee, Sesshoumaru's brow creases slightly. The posture was traditionly for informants and lower warriors reporting to their lords, that or . . .
"I am one to pursue what I want Sesshoumaru-sama. I have proven my loyalty with decades of loyal service, I've proven as well, my ablilty to hold my own in battles of the body and mind. I have hunted spies and traitors of the West for you and been sucessful"
Sesshoumaru steps forward almost hesitantly "General" his tone is stern
"-- I have served under you happily, with no desire or intention to go above you. Ask for any of your enemy's heads and I shall bring it" she looks up, face determined "I am offering my hand or requesting yours, it matters not to me" Her eyes widen marginally at the openly flustered expression on the stoic lord's face.

"Sango-san--!" Yuji's eyes widen at the sight of the taijiya at his room door, face determined "what are you doing here" he falters a bit "-not that I mind." he steps back out of the doorway "come in" She nods shortly, entering, walking in a few feet before turning to face him.
"Yuji-san" He pushes the door up before giving her his attention, unsure if he should close it "you may close the door Yuji-san" he hisitates for a second
"right" he pushes it the rest of the way closed, turning back towards her "you . . .wanted to talk maybe?" he gestures helplessly, his tail developing a nervous tick
"Yes, actually I did" she glances around the room, apparently nervous herself "I . . . wanted to accept" she looks back at him, slightly aprehensive
"ac--accept?" He takes a half step forward "accept what exsactly?" he takes hold of his tail when the tick worstens, it jerks spasmically in his hand
"I'm unsure it's there's a formal way to do this" she wrings her hands "I want to . . . accept your courtship proposal" a wide grin takes over the youkai's face
"you accept" he laughs a bit histerically "that's great! Oh god" he looks suddenly disheaved "I have to ask Sesshoumaru-sama for your hand-- I'm a youkai with little prestige, he could snap me in half with little thought! What if he thinks I'm unworthy?" Sango steps forward quickly, closing most of the distance between them, she takes hold of his shoulders, shaking him. She smile's lightly when his attention is again focused on her.
"I'm sure he'll give you permission" her brow creases in determination "I'll make sure he does" he smile's again, hands resting on her forearms.
"Hopefully" he nods "I'm glad . . .even if it's just this, you said yes-- that might be enough" Sango nods hesitantly, blushing lightly
"It won't have to be, even if Sesshoumaru-sama does not, Inuyasha cares for my happiness-- Miroku was correct, and the guy who saw me is a youkai" she laughs a bit "imagine that, why not? I won't hear the end of it"
"it won't be that bad most likely" she shakes her head, stepping closer, almost shyly
"no . . ." she tilts her head up, smiling when Yuji's lips meet hers "--not bad."
=-=-=-=
"You're . . . insane" Reika smiles, taking a step forward, towards the incredulous youkai
"is that a yes or no?" she tilts her head slightly, gold eyes wide "I would make a wonderful Lady of the Western Lands, that we both know Sesshoumaru-sama, rather you feel the same for me as I do for you is not an issue, though I'd perfer you did" she shakes her head slightly "I know how I feel, and I am fine simply being the West's means to produce a heir" she lowers her head a bit, confidence wavering "I beg that you do not refuse me Sesshoumaru-sama"
"It is unfitting for a youkai such as yourself to be simply a trophy upon a lord's arm or a means to an end" She raises her head, a questioning look touching her features, she receives a level look in return. The taiyoukai tucks his hands into his sleeves, having regained his composure "I shall . . . accept your hand, I am head of my family and you have proven your value as a mate." His eyes soften slightly at her smile, he quickly averts his attention to his desk "There is much to do if there is to be a new Lady of the Western Lands" he says with a bit of resignation imagining the paperwork, he turns back to find her at his side. She grins up at him.
"There shall be another mated pair to announce upon the next sunrise if your permission is given"
"The taijiya and the fox" he murmurs absently, Reika nods shortly
"The taijiya came to me for the answers to questions Inuyasha-sama could not answer, she has gone to accept his courtship tonight"
"I see" he glances towards the door, he looks back when a hand touches his shoulder, above what was left of his left arm, he raises an eyebrow in question
"We are not a mated pair yet my lord" she smiles, he gives her an amused look
"The sun has just set" she shrugs helplessly "--and you've yet to take care of the South's spies"
"We have never been ones for conforming though, you agree Sesshoumaru-sama? I can send my general and two of my best, yes? They will be taken care of, come my lord" she walks to the door beconing "now where is that Jakken" she murmurs to herself.
"Hn, my lady" she grins opening the panel and following him out as he passes
"I like the sound of that, I think"
"That . . . is fortunate."
(>^.^)> THE END <(^.^<)
(A/N): Ok~ this is the end of "Life From Love"! But it's not over yet! The Trilogy ends with the crossover Sequel: "Life and Living It" where you find out what happens to Kagome and just how Shippo living in the Modern Era. IY/YYH crossover. Look out for it.
--Random Fact: Reika was actually based from a male OC from an earlier story I'd co-written with a friend. The male OC also ended up with Sesshoumaru, but actually started out as someone the taiyoukai felt compelled to . . . kill.
