Good story 

the last time i read this was 5 yrs ago. i'm reading it again and the answer's the same: this is a GREAT story. i'm glad that they worked through their doubts and stayed together. i would have been nice to see her pregnant at the end, but i can understand why the ending turned out that way. they still needed to know each other a little better. my parents were married for 3 yrs before they started their family and i see nothing wrong with that. keep up the great writing. c'ya'

Okay, so I kept reading obviously.  I was confused as to Kagome "being as much at fault" for her kidnapping as Sesshomaru was because.. she was distracted??  And now, she's a horrible person because she believed Minoru, because it's (in your writing) the same thing he did about the videos. The difference is, she stayed while he shut down and decided it was over without even a fight.  He was willing to walk away from Rin as well.  People are saying in the reviews that they need to get their acts together, but mostly it seems that Kagome needs a therapist written into the story to tell her (and your readers) that she/they are never at fault for someone victimizing them (her image being used without her consent/being kidnapped/lied to).   I get really confused by the misogyny in this fandom.  It seems like a lot of "poor Sesshomaru" even though he's had centuries longer of life experience on her and Kagome is always needing to be more understanding.  I mean, they only hit you cause they love you, right???

This is a fascinating story, and you've written it so well.  I'm disappointed in this chapter because the whole Sesshomaru kidnaps Kagome and is smug about forcing his will upon her is almost a trope at this point.  I know that Kagome is canonically almost pathologically forgiving, but I don't really see how you can write yourself out of this corner.  It's such an offputting way to write his though processes, and hers (if she chooses to forgive him, which I'm almost positive she will) that it kind of sours the joy of reading it.

I'm sure with your skill you'll be able to pull it off, I just wanted to add my thoughts and I hope that it's not construed as a flame.  I am going on to the next chapter right now with high hopes that The Lord of the West will at least say "sorry".  ANYTHING at all that shows remorse, not just him thinking it and then banging Kagome until she "forgets why she was mad at him".

Damn .. this is such a superb story .. I love your work.. please do continue to write something which will be surely be as amazing as rest of your work. 

So I know this is an old story and its not the first time I've read it either. I think its great story over all. I just have one problem with it. It bothers me each time I read it. Chapter 32. I simple do not feel that kagome was being hypocritical in her upset when told sesshomaru planed to take a second mate. While there were multiple differences, including the fact that he was consciously or unconsciously looking for and escaped route that didn't look bad on him, there was also one very important major difference. Kagome straight up stated n an earlier chapter that she understood that the videos looked bad and she would probably have also reacted badly. She believed him at his word when would not bring himself to believe hers. She did not make him jump through hoops to prove himself. She had enough faith in him to take his word as truth. Personally I felt it very hard to forgive the hell he out her through and it would not have been given easily. Trust is very important in relationships and once broken is difficult to mend. She obviously lost her trust in him with his lack of it. Now the whole I've had many casual ruts and that's perfectly fine, but god forbid if kagome had actually been a porn star is a far to common theme that irks me on a different level. That's not just your story. I, again, personally find much more entertaining when the both have no experience, no matter how unrealistic that is. Haha. 

second time reading this story and it's still the best! c'ya'

i love this story so sad it is over i so wish there was a sequel with kagome being preggers would love to see how sesshomaru would deal with a preggers kagome LOL

you have done it again . i loved this story. it was wonderful. i like how you portray sesshoumaru. it makes him seem like a real person(to bad he's not)learning to deal with emotions for the first time. i think you do a great job in that area. i plan to read more of your stories-old and new. keep up the good writitng. i'm glad i put you on my fave's author list. love your stories. bye

Love the title for this one, though, I'm pretty sure they will both remember it very well.

Great story, I really enjoyed the struggle they went through to get to the end. A lot of stories always have them get together rather easily. The conflicts you provided made it more realistic and more enjoyable.

Thank you for sharing your work! I love this story. Great storyline, the story flows and was well written. Definitely one of my fave fanfics.

Sexy inu ass?

seriously? Hahhahhahahhaha that was so cute! :D

also I loved the Minoru twist :D didn't expect that one hhehe

hmm I don't know anymore :D I guess I will just go back to reading! ;)

~Aya.

Ooooooookaaaaaay, that was certainly unexpected :D

but it's a nice twist!!! Oh can't wait discussion"talk" that Sesshoumaru will defiantly enjoy, hah.

ok I will go back to reading now :D

~Aya

Okay!!!!! I think I get it, I think :D

can I share my theory? I don't normally share what I predict for a story but you wrote this story so well from the portrayal of the characters to the events happening, I just can't say anything but, I'm inlove with your story. Lol.

So, back to the previous discussion, I think I get it, the Porn star isn't just a look-alike, is she? I mean with such an alias as naughty miko, so she IS kagome, I believe, she is even her other half, the half which was let out due to her making the wish, also the reason for the absent pouch of gold which Sesshoumaru left Kagome with, ne ne neeeeee? It's more likely her darker side, I mean the jewel was a constant battle between good and evil, sooooo

I don't really know, I guess I will just have to continue reading, I'm just too excited lol :D

but, I do have a remark though, it's the only thing that disturbed me, Kagome put till now told Sesshoumaru that she loves him, two times on the phone, and there was no further explanation, I was like; "what the?!"

But then I told myself it's okay, maybe it came with the whole package as you know being ready to mate and all but when Rin said it and he was that affected by it, I just have to say that I simply need some kind of explanation :D

yup that's it! I will continue reading now, sooo

have a great day! And thank you for writing such an awesome story!

also thank you for adding the nickname "little one" lol, I love that nickname! :D

I LOVE THIS STORY!!!!

LOVED HOJO APOLOGY LMAO!!!!!

But this story just kept sucking my in read it start to finish the romance and bond between Kagome and Sesshomaru was so breath taking and the Hot Spicy lemon just sizzled this makes me wish there was a squeal!

wow that was a rather productive story. i'm glad sesshomaur servived but i had almsot hoped shippo or inyasha or koga would amke themsevles know. jsut to add more tot he story. th i'm pleased that jerk who tryed to put them agasint each toher is good and gone. he deserved no less same for hojo who was stupid enouh to think that striking kagome after she had alreyad agreed not ot say anything was a good idea. plus he truly should have remebered to mention to his boss who he was punishing at least so the boss coudl cover his track if need be. just gose to show how totally stupid he was.. kinda like in the anime and mange he couldn't take no for an answer.

Ah! I am so glad to see that you are writing again! :) I enjoy your stories immensely! Plus it's better therapy than imagining bludgeoning people. :) I really am glad to see that you are back and I greately enjoyed this story very much, most of your stories seem more real than the others that I read and that is why you are a great author in my opinion.

I hope to see you write more stuff! Actually I'm about to read your other story that you update on as of late.. I think it's called Hubrant to... nah, he has no faults. I think. It's the next one on the list :) Well I had better get to reading I have a lot to catch up on! :)

Finished yet another of your amazing creations. I loved this one too! However, this one wasn't as great as your other works. It was great all the same, but I felt like there could have been more to the story. Also, Kagome needs to take some self defence classes lol, it seems like in a lot of your stories some dude is trying to hit her. I get that her miko powers work on demons but can she kick some human arse too? xD Again great story!
