Chapter Five
She sat by the window, tapping her claws on the window sill and sniffed the air every now and then for his scent. She was worried out of her mind; where in Ama's name was he? She sighed. Why did she always get like this when he left? It had to be her maternal instincts. No matter how old her children got they would always be her babies.
Sesshomaru scratched the mating mark on his shoulder; it always itched when his Mika was worried. The stupid itch wasn't going to leave anytime soon and it was very annoying. He groaned as he sat up in his bed and looked over to the window and saw his mate in her usual state once their eldest son left home. He sighed and shook his head; sometimes he thought she may have separation anxiety.
He wrapped a sheet around his waist as he stood and went over to his mate; holding her in a warm embrace meant to sooth her and make her forget about all her worries. "He has been gone longer than this Mika. Why must you worry when ever Thor leaves?" He asked.
Mika shurgged; even she couldn't answer that question, but she did know this: she missed her son and like she always did when he left she prayed to Izanami, the japanese Mother goddess, that he would return home safely.

Her long golden hair, with one single silver streak, flowed over her shoulders, her silver eyes watched her twin brother move with the grace he inheritted from their father. She had no half moon on her forehead, but she did inherit the magenta stripes from her father, Lord Sesshomaru. Shiaka sat on the bench in the garden, watching Malique do some excercises with his two swords and cleaned her claws with on of her sycthes.
He had long silver hair with golden highlights that stopped in the middle of his back, deep green eyes, not crystal like his mother's, that reminded her of the grass and the stripes on his face were the same shape as his father's but had the colour of his mother's. He had the build of his father but looked like his mother.
For some weird reason that to this day no one understood, Shiaka and Malique were not born as fire youkai; they were born as thunder and wind youkai, respectively. The heard that when their mother went into labour with them she created a storm and often electricuted servants who tried to come near her even their father; they always laughed at these stories.
They didn't mind it though, that meant they weren't as dangerous as Thor. Last year during his first heat cycle Thor almost burned down The House of The Moon and for three weeks they had to keep him in a special fire proof room as the healers worked vigilently to create a medicine to ease his pain and the heat in his body and luckily the found it so now he took it at the start of every month.
Shiaka looked up to her parents' bedroom window and saw her parents looking outside. Sometimes she swore her mother had separation anxiety.

Thor stood on the hill, his hair was no longer bound and flew about freely infront of him, whipping his face every now and then. He was thinking of his tennyo and the words he heard from the stranger in the forest. '...a great sorrow will befall you.' What did that mean? Would he finally find her and she wouldn't love him? That was something that would depress him.
He didn't want to think about it. He watched the wind move the grass like waves on the ocean; it was a beautiful sight and the grass around him gently tickled his bare feet. He would be heading home soon; he didn't want his mother too worried. Thor chuckled at the thought of his mother running up to him and pulling him into a bone crushing hug; she did that every time he returned home.
The one thing that he didn't miss from home was sparring with his father; sometimes they'd fight for two or three hours and neither of them would accept defeat and surrender, most of the time his mother had to break them apart but he was thankful for the lessons; his father had taught him alot. As old as Thor was, he still wasn't as big as his father in his inu form but that didn't bother him since he was just as powerful and that made him proud.
'...a great sorrow that will befall you.' What did that mean?

Chime, his wife Romy, Yosuke and Raine were sitting around the table for dinner. Raine still hadn't forgiven Yosuke and she was still alittle scared; they slept in separate rooms for now. How could he have done that to her? Yes she was his wife and she had certain obligations but that didn't mean he could take advantage of her. Who told him that he could have free access to her body whenever he felt like it? It was her body and she would tell him what he could or could not do with it! She could feel her parents-in-law watching her and Yosuke and knew they were wondering. She put down her chopsticks and asked to be excused.
"You haven't eaten anything dear." Romy said.
"I'm not hungry." Raine said and bowed before leaving.
Chimu and Romy watched Raine leave; there was something going on and they wanted to know what. From day one this marriage seemed to be all wrong and neither of them could see why. Raine and Yosuke seemed like the perfect couple at first glance, but looks weren't everything.
Chimu was about to speak to his soon when he stood, bowed and excused himself. Romy turned to her husband and looked at him confused, but he shrugged. Something was going on and she hoped it wouldn't destroy her son's marriage.
*oOo*
Yosuke walked quietly down the hall. He thought of what he had done to her and would blame himself for the destruction of his marriage if it ever came to that. How could he have been so stupid? He could have just simply asked her what was wrong and solve the problem but, he didn't think with his brain he was thinking with another part of his anatomy. His actions were causing him his wife and he felt horrible.
He stepped outside her room and stared at the door. Should he go in and talk to her? Was it a good idea to even look at her? Yosuke stood out there for what seemed like an eternity deciding. Maybe he should wait for her to trust him again or could he go in there and convince her that he was sorry and have her forgive him? The latter seemed forceful and he didn't want that. What would be wise?
Yosuke reached out to slide open the door, but it did so on its own and infront of him, wearing a bath robe, stood Raine. She gasped and stepped back, keeping her head down. He wanted to hug her and tell her he was sorry and everything would be okay, but she wasn't ready for that. She looked so timid that he felt the slightest noise would scare her. He wanted to feel her hair , but he couldn't. He curled his hands into fists and mentally kicked himself for being such a baka.
"Goodnight." He said and left.
*oOo*
Raine slid open the door and stood face to face with her husband. She gasped and stepped back with her head down; she thought it would be best to stay out of his way. Why had she listened to her father? She was nineteen years old she could make her own decisions. It was her father that made her marry someone four years her senior all because he found out he was the son of a minor lord. If her father were tehre she would slap him...and then apologize.
She was turn out of her thoughts when Yosuke spoke. She watched as he walked away and when she should have felt sad., when she should have felt guilty, depressed and upset she felt...happy.
