#13: Inuyasha (Sesshōmaru & Kagome)
Prompt: Duck, Duck Goose
Prompt: Duck, Duck Goose
...When the duck becomes the goose...
Thanks to Ah-Un, they were able to make it to the Western Citadel within hours. As soon as she stepped down from Ah-Un, she was hugged by Rin, who was obviously more than happy to see her and Shippō. Ever since their encounter with Sō’unga, she and Rin often met occasionally, and strangely, when Inuyasha was not around. This was one of the few reasons why she didn’t hesitate to go with Sesshōmaru. When she saw Rin take Shippō away to play whatever she was planning, she glanced at Sesshōmaru.
Now, it was rather obvious that Rin was not the reason she was here, at his palace. After getting a nod from him, she followed him to what she guessed his study. Along the way, she had to say that she was impressed with his palace. The paintings of the Western Lands, the carvings of battles on the pillars, and the tapestries of dog demons were beautiful beyond description. As soon as they were within the safety of his study, he gestured for her to take a seat across him. Eager to know what he wanted from her, she sat down without a fuss and waited.
A few minutes passed without a word, and when she was beginning to think he wouldn’t stop their awkward staring contest, he spoke. “This Sesshōmaru has a proposal to make.”
She blinked. “Okay...”
“Rin wants a mother,” he stated before staring at her once again.
After a pregnant silence, it finally dawned on her. Rin wanted her to be her mother. “Well... if that is what Rin wanted, I would be more than happy to accept her as my own, just like Shippō.”
“Becoming my ward’s mother comes with a responsibility, Kagome.” He rendered her speechless as this was the first time he called her by her name. “You will have to become my mate.”
how to propose a woman a la Sesshoumaru: don't beat about the bush and make it sounds like a business arrangement. lol.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! What an epic proposal! I wonder what she says and I can't wait to see how Inuyasha reacts and how rin and shippo will take it as well. Another awesome chapter! I love it! Can't wait for your next update :)
