This is the final chapter!

"I'm going with your father, I'll be back soon." She promised, kissing her son's head.

"Why do you have to go?" Osamu asked.

Kagome giggled quietly, "Because, your father has to lick his wounds."

"I thought he wanted this?"

"He does. But that doesn't mean he likes losing. He doesn't like the reminder that he is old." Kagome giggled, "Tell Rana I love her."

"I will."

"Don't mate her when I'm gone."

He laughed, "I would if she would let me."

"I don't understand dragons." Kagome said, kissing his head, "I'm so proud of you."

"Don't be gone too long." Osamu said with a frown.

"I won't be." Kagome promised.

.

She had that conversation with Osamu before using Kyala to go to the Eastern palace with Sesshomaru. When they arrived, she took Sesshomaru to her massive tub and filled it up. He had some cuts and bruises on him. So as she waited for the tub, she sparked her miko power to help heal him.

"We wanted this Sessh." She said with a smile, "More time for sex. Maybe we can finally get tired of having sex with one another."

"I don't want to get tired of having sex with you," He said with a frown and Kagome giggled, pushing back his hair.

"You act like because you aren't king anymore that you won't be doing anything." She said.

"I just can't believe I lost." Sesshomaru admitted.

"It was the third time he challenged you, you were bound to lose eventually." She said softly. Sesshomaru frowned deeper making Kagome lean forward and kiss him, "If you want me to prove how much of a winner you are, just let me know."

He chuckled deeply before pulling her close to him, "I never thought this day would come."

Kagome shrugged, "I knew it would. What I'm not convinced will happen are Rana and Osamu mating."

"Dragons will be dragons. It will not be too much longer. Not with you pressuring her." Sesshomaru said.

"Saja and Shippo mated, and it didn't take Saja nearly as long." Kagome said with a frown. Saja had come a long way from attempting to kill her mate. Saja had proved herself to the family over and over again. And that Saja managed to pin down Shippo and settle him out, Kagome loved her for it.

"Do not worry, my mate." Sesshomaru said, kissing her forehead.

"I just want him happy."

He ran his thumb over her cheek, "He is happy. He just won a kingdom. He better be happy."

Kagome laughed, "I love Rana; I do. She will make a great Queen."

"Are you lamenting the loss as well?" Sesshomaru asked with a raised eyebrow and a smirk.

"Maybe a bit." She said with a bigger grin, standing on her tiptoes to kiss his jaw. She turned off the spigot and felt the water, his hands still on her as she moved, his fingers played along her skin that slipped out between her shirt and pants.

He quickly divulged her of her shirt, and then pants and she did the same.

"Do I get to be the big spoon this time?" Sesshomaru asked.

"I think you've deserved being big spoon." She said with a grin, pressing her naked body against his.

He grinned back, kissing her sensually before slipping into the water.

.

Kagome relaxed against his chest, her head rolling back against his shoulder as she took his hand in hers. She swirled her fingers along his clawed ones as his other hand gripped her waist and pulled her closer. His nose buried into her neck and licked her mating mark.

"I can't believe I am now the Queen mother. It seems like Osamu was born yesterday."

"He will be a good king." Sesshomaru said confidently.

"And if he makes a stupid decision, he has two older brothers to knock him in line." Kagome said.

"Kazuhiko will show him his place."

"And Shippo will play tricks until he admits his wrong." Kagome said; then adjusted to look up at him, "We did well."

"We did." He confirmed, his golden eyes sparkling as he leaned down and kissed her.

"Maybe the youngest should always rule so he has big brothers to protect him."

"And Saja for a sister-in-law is comforting." Sesshomaru said, "She is lethal."

Kagome nodded as her fingers went up his arm and along his marks.

"I am sad to give it up, even though it is time." Kagome admitted out loud.

"I am older than my father when he stepped down." He had pride in his voice, making Kagome giggle as she turned to look at him.

"You are stronger than your father." Kagome said.

"I know." He said, leaning down to kiss her as his fingers went along her stomach. His fingers slowly moved down her torso before running along her clit. Kagome tensed in his arms with anticipation as she tried to deepen the kiss. He pulled away from her, "Look at me." He ordered.

So she looked into his golden eyes as he rubbed her in small circles, his stare was intense as it began to swirl with red. It was a light tinge, but it was there. She felt him growing hard against her back and she moaned as her legs opened wider for him.

She gasped, her hand grasping the edge of the tub, as he rubbed harder against her clit. A particular rub caused her to thrust her hips into his hand, the water sloshing a bit.

"Sessh." She whispered, moaning again, opening her legs more as she arched up and tried not to close her eyes as she continued to look at him.

"I love it when you moan my name." He said heatedly, "Try to say my name."

"Ses—Ah!" She gasped as he slid two fingers inside of her and said, "Fuck."

"My entire name." He growled; the purr in his chest nearly vibrated her entire body. She rolled her head back as she thrust into his hand, but he had stopped moving.

She growled in frustration.

"Look at me, miko." He ordered again, so she looked back at him. As soon as she did, he started rubbing her clit again. The first circle had her moaning, even more on edge than she had been before. But he stopped because she had closed her eyes.

"Sessh—!" She snapped.

"Do you deserve to cum if you cannot follow such simple instructions?" He asked her, his deep voice causing her body to pulse with need and she clenched down on his fingers that were not moving inside of her.

"Please." She begged, she loved when he talked like this to her. She trusted him to know her limits. Hell, they had been together long enough.

"That is twice I have had to tell you miko, so as punishment you will not cum in this tub" He told her as he moved his fingers again. She rubbed against him as she stared back up at him, "My name, miko, or do you plan to be unruly all evening?"

"No." She promised, biting her lip as her orgasm continued to build, she heaved against his chest, still staring up into his eyes. Her eyes fluttered as he added another finger, "Se-Se" She tried but his thrusts were deepening. Her hand moved to clutch the edge of the tub. Her orgasm continued to build as she began rolling her hips and meeting his thrusts.

The heat in her belly was nearly unbearable as his eyes began swirling more with red.

"Try again miko." He growled

She could hardly catch her breath, "Ses—maru." She managed to say between clenched teeth as she tried to keep off her orgasm. He told her not to cum. In the past, she hadn't listened to him and cum; then she didn't for the rest of the night as punishment for disobeying his orders. She had no intention of doing that again.

"Sesshomaru." He said slowly, moving in and out of her.

"Se—Sesshomaru." She moaned.

"Good girl." He complemented, swirling her clit.

It was suddenly too much, especially as he growled in pleasure and the vibration went down her chest.

"Stop!" She cried out. She was glad he didn't move his thumb from her clit because she thought even him removing it would have caused her release. She just concentrated on her breathing for a moment as her orgasm moved back from the precipice. Sesshomaru kissed along her neck, and then licked his mating mark.

"Can we get out of the tub?" She asked when she caught her breath.

He hummed his agreement as he helped her get out of the tub. Her lakes were shaky, but his strong arms helped her. He pulled the plug on the tub before grabbing a towel. He toweled her off gently.

"Sesshomaru." She moaned, grasping his erection in her hand as her finger rolled around the tip. He grasped her hand, keeping her from touching.

"I want to cum inside you." He told her, grasping her hips and pulling her toward the bed.

She loved when he talked like that.

He pushed her back onto the bed and easily pushed inside of her. Kagome moaned as she wrapped her legs around his waist. His strokes were deep and hard as she met him thrust for thrust.

"Can I cum?" She asked.

"Yes." He growled. She relaxed as she felt fire burn in her belly. Her entire body felt hot as she gasped at each thrust. His claws were dragging along her skin as his eyes fully flashed a dangerous and passionate red.

He grasped her waist when he pulled out and flipped her over onto her stomach. She was pushed up on her elbows and cried out as he thrust into her again. His arms went down on either side of her, caging her against him. His fangs went along her shoulder, breaking skin and he licked her clean. He groaned against her back.

"You taste so fucking good." He growled. She could feel fur against her back and knew he was losing control. Kami, she loved it when he did. She pulled her hair to the side to reveal her neck before purposefully wiggling out of his grip. She knew he would never let her go unless he wanted to, so he wanted to play her game.

She giggled as he snarled at her. He looked beautiful. His fangs had slid over his jaw and his marks were jagged. White fur had moved up his stomach enough to cover his abs and down his thighs.

"Bitch." He snarled, his beast in charge.

"Yes?" She replied before running out and around a couch.

He growled as he followed her. Every muscle built for catching his prey. He might have lost to his son, but that did not mean he was weak. She giggled as she went one way and he paced around so she moved back.

Another move had her running around the coffee table. He snagged her just as she ran across the front of the fireplace, his clawed hand pulling her tight against his chest.

"Sessh!" She gasped as he pushed inside of her and took her to the ground. He continued to thrust into her without abandon. She couldn't tell what he was saying anymore, it was all snarls and barks. Her arms wanted to give out, but Sesshomaru couldn't hold her up when his limbs were in a state of in between, so she tried not to think about her arms. Her head dropped to the carpet and she moaned. Her fingers wove through the fur carpet as her orgasm threatened to burst. She thought she was going to fall apart before her orgasm happened.

Her hand hit the ground as her orgasm burst. Her mouth hung open as she clenched her muscles around him. Her head touched the ground as she continued to thrust back onto him. She heard him snarl and then there was a deafening roar as he emptied his seed inside of her. His breathing was ragged as he nearly collapsed on top of her.

"Fuck Kagome." He growled in her ear as he pulled her close against him and then grabbed a blanket from the couch.

"We are too good at this." She said tiredly.

He chuckled as he snuggled up closer to her, his arm wrapping around her middle.

"Get your rest, you will need it." Sesshomaru advised.

Kagome took his clawed hand and kissed his knuckles lightly.

"Goodnight Sessh."

"Goodnight."

"Mom?" Osamu called to her, and she smiled at him.

"Yes?"

"You were gone for five whole years." He said with a frown, "Was he really that upset?"

Kagome laughed, "No, I think he got over it in a week."

"Then what took you so long?" He asked.

"We hadn't had time on our own since— well—ever. You will learn quickly that the King and Queen are always needed by someone," She had a glint in her eye, "You gotta be quick."

"Mom." He grumbled

"Hey, you mated when I wasn't here. I can be as crass as I want."

"You were gone, and to be fair—we did try to send for you. But when she said yes, I didn't want to wait another three years."

She giggled, "I know, you waited long enough." Kissing his head, "I am happy for you. When are you going to pup her?"

"Not for a while" He said, "I realize I will have even less time to do anything with a kid."

"You didn't need us here." Kagome said, running her hands through her son's head, "You were fine on your own. You needed to do it on your own."

He nodded, "And now Dad is back and breathing down my neck."

Kagome laughed, "I know, I'm trying to get him to back away. It's not that he doesn't trust you, he just did it for so long."

"I know, but it's annoying. I did this on my own for a while."

She shook her head, "You can say that in a hundred years, but until then I wouldn't use that argument—Rana, how are you?"

"Good Kagome." She said, kissing Kagome's cheek. There was an elegant air around Rana that made her look like a Queen. She held herself well. And so did Osamu, "Are you enjoying your welcome back party?"

Kagome laughed, "I am, I love parties"

"How did you convince Dad to come? He hates these things." Osamu said.

"I always make it worth his while." Kagome said with a smile, making eyes at her mate from across the room. He was already walking toward her and his hand easily wrapped around her waist. When she turned out of his hold, she saw her son.

"Hey Mama." Shippo said, kissing her head

"Hey honey, where's Saja?"

"Do you not love me anymore?" He asked teasing.

"I like your mate much more than you." She teased back.

"She is upstairs resting, since she is pregnant with the kit she doesn't do well being up late."

"I always knew you would be the first to go." Kazuhiko said with a grin, clearly proud of his brother though he teased him.

"As long as we are last." Rana said, leaning into Osamu, "We are already so busy."

"Hey, Sessh did it as a single father so all of you guys need to stop whining."

"He had Granddad." Kazuhiko said.

"And who are we?" Kagome asked, "I will take my grandchildren any day."

"As long as they are returned in an appropriate amount of time" Sesshomaru interjected, his tone left no room for argument.

"What is appropriate?" Shippo asked.

"Your kit isn't even born yet and you are trying to pawn him off?" Kazuhiko asked.

"You don't remember how much trouble we were?" Shippo asked him.

"You both were more trouble than what you were worth." Kagome said with a grin.

"Aw, come on, we were cute." Kazuhiko said smiling; his hand was wrapped around Rin's waist.

"You were cute." Kagome said, leaning back into Sesshomaru's chest, his hand bringing her close.

"Mama, why are you crying?" Shippo asked, his tone exasperated.

"I'm just so happy!" She said.

She could feel Sesshomaru chuckle, though she didn't hear it as he pressed a kiss to her temple.

"Everyone isn't partying without me, right?" Saja asked as she joined the group.

"Aren't you supposed to be resting?" Shippo asked, his tone protective.

"I didn't want to miss out on a party." She said, leaning into his side.

"Saja—" Shippo started.

"I'm pregnant, not handicapped. Kagome still worked when she was pregnant."

"I'm not the best example." Kagome said with a frown, Sesshomaru's grip had tightened around her. Only Sesshomaru, Kikyo, Inuyasha and she knew what happened after her pregnancy. Kagome had told Osamu later in life, she just didn't want him to accidentally find out.

.

"Come on guys. There is a party and all you all are doin' is hanging out with each other." Inuyasha said as he leaned in, Kikyo by his side.

"It's cause Mom's crying again cause she is so happy." Kazuhiko said with a smile, kissing Kagome's head. He took Rin's hand, "Let's go get a drink."

"I want another too." Kikyo said, pulling Inuyasha with him.

"My mate and I are going to have a dance, Mama." Shippo said, kissing Kagome's head before leaving with Saja.

"I am glad you are both back." Osamu said, pulling Rana with him before kissing Kagome's head and nodding to his father.

.

Leaving Sesshomaru and Kagome alone.

.

"I would do it all again." Kagome said with a grin, looking up at him.

"Hn." He agreed, kissing her lips not so chastely.
