The Wolf and the Dog

Chapter 11: Blending In

The next day the elders had arranged for a feast for Kouga and Inuyasha. The whole clan cheered as the couple walked through them hand in hand, with Kouga clad in a black silk kimono (that matched his midnight black hair) with a golden wolf watching his back and Inuyasha in a red silk kimono with a golden phoenix stretching it wings across his back.

"You smell utterly divine." Kouga whispered to his puppy as they made their way to the front of the council room.

"Ummm...arigatou...you look good too." Inuyasha said with a shy blush coloring his cheeks.

Kouga smiled as wrapped his arms around his mate's shoulder drawing him close to his body as he addressed the crowd. "This is Inuyasha, My mate, the person you all were so eager to meet and the bearer of my heir."

The entire crowd gasped; soon whispers broke among the wolves as they pushed each other to get a better look at the pregnant hanyou. Inuyasha was now completely red and if Kouga weren't holding him tightly against his body he surely would have bolted off to hide somewhere or locked himself in 'his' room until the world came to an end.

Sensing his mate's unease Kouga gave a light squeeze on the inu's shoulder as he continued his speech. "I expect the same respect for him as you have shown me all these years. He's mine as I am his and any disrespect or insult of him would mean disrespect to me and the consequences shall be severe." He watched as a silence fell among the crowd.

Kouga turned to face the hanyou and moved his arms around the hanyou shoulder to his waist pulling him into a spellbinding kiss. The crowd immediately broke into congratulatory howls and cheers.

"LET THE FEAST BEGIN" Kouga shouted as he release Inuyasha from the kiss and the wolves cheered again.

Music started to play and the dance began. Kouga pulled the still dazed hanyou amidst the many dancers as they joined the group in a sensual dance of their own.

The feasting and revelry lasted long into the night and it was only early morning hours when the couple finally left the party to retire back to their room.

"That was some feast!!" Kouga said happily as he threw himself on the futon.

"Hmmm.. I loved it too but I could do better without the wolves licking my face as they wished us happy life." Inuyasha grumbled as he went to lie beside his mate.

Kouga laughed out loud. "It looked like you were enjoying all the attention puppy."

"Keh! I am better off without the drool dripping down my face not to mention Yuuka's continuous fawning."

"Hmmm... well you have to get to Yuuka fawning over you, I think she is going to baby you no matter what you say, even I cannot dare to change her mind."

"So Mighty wolf prince's afraid of someone, heh." Inuyasha snickered.

"Hey!! Everyone's afraid of Yuuka once she goes to her FULL MOM MODE."

"Yeah, I could see that today." Inuyasha laughed.

"Hmmmm... Puppy??"

"What?"

"What do you say we continue our little feast?" Kouga turned to his doggy, his eyes full of lust and hunger flashing him a seductive smile.

"I am tired and my feet are sore." Inuyasha complained as he tried to scoot away from the Kouga's reach only to find himself pinned under the wolf.

"So?? I am not and I know just the way to take your tiredness away." Kouga said as he attacked the hanyou's ears licking and sucking it making the hanyou moan unconsciously.
