Once they returned to the castle Sess had been taken to his room for healing. Inuyasha had started instantly with the harassment of his older half brother, but surprisingly Sesshomaru had not killed him yet. Kagome was currently listening to her father tell her about all the adventures that he had with Sesshomaru and Maru's father. It was nice to know that she had inherited her father's ability to find chaos.
Maru and Toga were currently in the study talking about what to do about courting of Sess and Kagome. Kagome had effectively failed in the protection of Sess and therefore broke the courtship. Maru had thought that it would be the end of the subject, but Toga was worried about how his son would take the news.
“She failed to protect him. I do not see what the problem is.” Maru said leaning back.
“I understand, but Sess will not want to let her go so easy. You remember being that age.” Toga said rubbing his temples and knowing that Sess was going to be a pain about this.
“What do you mean by `That age'?” Kagome asked walking into the room.
“Kagome, he has only recently gone through his growth into his full demon size.” Maru said cocking a brow at her. He thought that she had noticed he was almost childlike.
“What exactly does that mean?” Kagome asked taking a seat beside her mate.
“It means that two years ago he would have been the same size as Shippo.” Maru said. His mate's mouth slipped to the floor and she grew a little pale.
“Oh my gods I am robbing the cradle.” She moaned laying her head on the table.
“I do have an idea of how to fix this without any hard feeling.” Maru said
“Well are you going to let us in on this great idea or keep us in suspense?” Kagome asked.
“I will tell you on the way back to the sun realm.” Maru said getting to his feet.
Sess slowly opened his eyes to the bright light of the sun shinning into his room. He looked to his left to Kagome sleeping beside his futon with his hand in hers. He tilted his head when he looked at her. She looked younger than when he had last seen her and her hair seemed longer. She was absolutely beautiful lying there so devotedly to him.
A shifting in her position along with a tiny stretch alerted him that she was awake. When she opened her eyes the striking emerald green of her eyes completely threw him off. This wasn't his Kagome at all, but he wasn't about to complain.
“I am glad to see that you are awake.” The original Kagome said walking into the room.
“I thought that she was you.” Sess said still looking at the green eyed Kagome.
“No, I had to go see my babies and wanted someone here to watch over you. Maru found her in one of the towns in the sun realm and brought her here to watch over you. She has stayed by your side for two weeks while you healed.” Kagome said watching the way he was staring at her and the tiny blush that fluttered across her cheeks.
“Did you really stay by my side that whole time?” He asked receiving a nod of yes.
“She is really shy. I think I will give you time to get to know each other.” Kagome said heading back out of the room and clapping happily as she dashed to her mates.
It had taken a little less than a week for Sess to tell Kagome that he was sorry and could not become her mate. She fiend hurt, but not to much as Sesshomaru had started to get a little jealous and growly. Maru and Inuyasha had snickered at the whole scene, but were also happy that he had grown to like the girl that was hand picked for him.
Upon their return to the sun realm Kagome had a tear filled reunion with her mother as she saw her husband for the first time in years. It was the happiest that she had ever seen her family. She inhaled deeply finally feeling as if her quest had finally come to an end.
One Year Later
Everyone had gathered together for a celebration. Kagome sat between her mates rubbing her large belly and looking at her children run in the yard with Inuyasha's. Inuyasha looked rather tired as his mates tried to keep him awake. Sess had come with his green-eyed miko. They had become inseparable since he woke that day. Her father had started on his adventures again, but this time was traveling with her mother while brother and grandpa stayed with her.
Sesshomaru had forgiven her for almost mating another inu, but still refused to let her be alone with any male demon unless he or Maru were in the same room. Sango would have rolled on the ground laughing if she wasn't pregnant when she heard the news. Her brother had joked that Kagome could never pass up a pet shop without wanting to take something home. That received a growl from Maru and Sesshomaru, but everyone else thought it was funny.
She would sometimes think back to that day at the well when she had longed for a normal life. She realized that no normal girl would ever have what she has. Two, gorgeous Inu lords, the four elements as children, an understanding family and best friends who thought the world of her. Yeah her life was better than normal it was perfect.
