Yahoo!  Angst andlove undeniable. ..  this can only get better. 

Thank you for updating  Sesshomaru's Secret Admirer-chan!

I love your story and here, on this chapter i could feel the emotion burried in the depth of those molten gaze, and wow... kagome devotion.. it's so... beautiful...

thanks again for updating, i really can't wait for next chapter! :D

but take your time and keep your hard work :)

That was amazing! I absolutely love your portrayal of Sesshoumaru. I can't wait to see how this ends! 

*sobs*

*sniffle*

*wipes tears away*

That was beyond beautiful...

Poor Kagome. But he had a good reason for not allowing Inuyasha to mate his love and for not telling Kagome.

In my opnion, Sesshomaru did not back Inuyasha because he would have no allies in a brutal war. Sesshomaru would probably be pushing the envelope by mating Kagome (a miko and ningen at that). Then to go to war so his hanyo brother could mate a full youkai demoness.......with half of Nippon against them and no other allies, Sesshomaru very well may lose the war especially if some of his own people abandoned the West to join the war. If Sesshomaru at least had some allies, I think he'd risk it but not against half of the entire country.

For not telling Kagome...Sesshomaru 1) probably does not want her angsty and hurt over this. She woke up from her long sleep then left him for a long time. So he's missed her and does not wish to jepordize anything especially so close to the mating......and 2) he still thinks Kagome does not see him fully. He firmly believes he is hiding his true darker self and she only sees the good. So he's afraid if Kagome sees all of him - both his goodness and darkness and cruelty - she would not want him.

But what Sesshomaru is missing is....Kagome might have grown up the future, but she's been in the past long enough to know that leaders, especially the higher lords, always have to make sacrifices and very tough decisions. The saying goes, One life for 1,000 lives. That saying applies here. While Sesshomaru probably would want to give Inuyasha some happiness and finally see someone that loves Inuyasha for who he is happily mate him....Sesshomaru just cannot risk such a huge war for nothing. No allies, the possibility his own people will abandon him, his kingdom, his own future mate......and only so Inuyasha could mate someone he loves.

While harsh, it was the way of the world back then. Even in Greek mythology and the Operas and other stories written back then, had a lot of tragedy because leaders had to make the hard decisions on sacrifice.

On the other hand, Kagome was kept in the dark so she probably feels like Sesshomaru still does not trust her or in their love and she may even feel betrayed that neither Inuyasha or Sesshomaru talked to her to come up with ideas or to at least say "this is what I've decided"......just left her in ignorance.

I have never felt this much emotions in a really long time. And I'm really glad this story ever came to existence :)))) this story really really touches my heart and sometimes I have to control myself from not laughing , crying, screaming, and whining too loud ahhaha. Please. Please update!!! honestly this story should be a movie or something. It's really hard to express my emotions into words when it comes to this story. 

I am officially a big fan of this story and you!!! Please continue and can't wait!! :D

Mixed feelings about the chapter d same thing is happening with them miscommunication what led to kura n ryuuk's downfall T_T they should talk to each other n i hope kagome tries to understand him -_- coz frm d way things r going i dnt think she'll listen to him

Nice chappie!! *Woot woot*  So heart-warming... And another issue i see *laugh*.  I wonder how would Kagome do.. Gonna keep my eyes on this story hahahaha

Seems things will get more complicated. I loved the chapter. Good job. I hope the next one is easier on you ^^

I think he made the right choice. He can't value Inuyasha's mating over the lives of his subjects. Inari is being selfish.

It is so heart breaking situation.. 

Please write more soon!  Instead of resting one she got back to the castle and catching up with people (a boring approach in my opinion) you dive right back into the action!  Well done!

This chapter was saddening. But kagome needs to understand she needs to toughen up,and accept that that this is not her time. She needs to embrace the fact that she will find things cruel and wrong. She also needs to realize that some things have to be. Just because sesshomaru said no,does not mean that he dosnt expect inuyasha to be brash and not listen. He expects a fight,and will win.

this is so good! i can't wait for the next chapter! 

After such alengthy delay in posting. I was a bit disappointed in this updated. I get tired of all the angst and would like to see a little more happiness for our couple. This was one of my favorite stories but you keepthrowing one issue after another and not letting them time to be together to just bond and become stronger.

OK, first things is first. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! I hope you are having a wonderful time with your family and friends!.

Second: thank you for an amazing update!!! Although I understand Sesshomaru's place to deny Inuyasha a mating that will bring war upon the West, I wish he would have put more faith in them, and fight for his brothers happines for once in his life, I mean he should know better than do something that would not only bring sadnes to Inu, but to Kagome as well, and ginven the fact that Kagome adores Inu, and would give everything to see him finally happy, I think that this time Sesshomaru brought it upon himself to suffer Kagome's wrath (because I doubt she will just sit down and let it slide) although my hopes are that once she bacomes the winner of "the hime tradition" she would have  more power to help her make the southern lord see that he is beaing an ass for judding Inu based just in the fact that he is a hanyou AND for not seeing (or caring) for his own daughter's happiness.

and thirdly: I hope you know I am a huge fan of yours, that I love LOVE your stories, that I think that you are and awesome and super talented autor, and that every time I comment or give you my opinion I do it in the most trutfull way possible. That being said, I have a litte problem to pick with you (inset serious face here).

I have always admired the fact that you would post your updates in a timely fasion, if not on time, only with a few days delay, when you announced that your updates were not gonna be as timely due to life activities I respected it, beause you let us know, and it wasn't just you leaving your stories forgotten, and you were respectfull towards your readers, and I like that. I was ok with up to a week of delay (even though YOU yourself said it will only be a few days) but whe you starting dalaying more and more I have to say, that really anger me, specially because you once said that you really hated when Autors delayed or just abandoned their stories, because you (as well as I) consider it a disrespect towards the readers. I cannot say that I fully understand what a "writers block" is, because well... I am no writer!, and maybe that is in part a reson to my anger, because I cannot understand how you can have a block on a story that has so much feed back, and that is so loved by everysingle person who reads it!. I know that someone will call me on this, many people will not agree this me, but i'm ok with that, as I ratter be truthful to you than just being a hypocrite. 

Any way,  I'm sorry for my rant, I asure you I mean no disrespect towards you or your work. Please know that I will continue to read and support your work because as I stated before I think you are super talented.

PS: sorry once again, but i seroiusly needed to get it off my chest to be able to be the happy and constructive reader I know I can be. :)

PPS: Sorry if my writing is a little (or a lot) sloppy. English is not my first language so.... yeah, I know sometimes I make no sense, but I try LOL!

Exciting! I was looking forward the the chapter and i was so happy when i saw the update. I'm glad that your writer's block is gone and look forward to the next chapter. I can see that Sesshomaru is progressing to becoming slighlty a more darker character ( intresting and awseome!) as well as Kagome, but both of them are going in a different directions to more an less get to the same objective. 

Great, keep it coming Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

Kagome! You do not deserve Sesshomeru! Like at all. When will she finally side with him and ducks sakes stop crying over everything!  Show some bacmoney and support your to be mate. I feel like Sesshomeru is trying his hardest to crept her the way she is bUT she has yet to come to terms what HE is. Though their society is savage and in the need of change it does not come quickly ND THEY ARE NOT HUMAN! I know the whole thing is about the species not mattering but in the end it does. Demon have different needs then humans. If Kagome gives Sesshomeru grief about not going to wAR over his brother's mating then Sesshomeru should really consider a different mate. She does not think about the casualties of war. Grrr something needs to happen and she needs to seriously get it together if she is to be the lday of the west.

Hmm...an interesting approach by Sesshoumaru. Clearly it didn't work or last. I don't think Kagome will take too kindly to him hiding stuff from her, especially if it has to do with her best friend Inuyasha. I wonder if love will be enough in this case. I can't wait to see what happens next :)
