AWE!! CHIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this was so moving! and so telling! I think i'm horribly in love with this fiction >:3

Awesome chapter! Loved that Kagome is slowly getting more feelings towards Sessho. Her hentai mind is funny as heck! Congratulations on the nominations! Hope you win! Please update soon! - LG

Ha.....a most satisfying read.

^^ I cannot wait for more! Hope you update soon >.<

Sesshomaru is so sweet and caring, and I feel so sad that Kagome doesn't really have the capacity to love him back right now.

Sigh... hopefully they will be happy soon.

EXCELLENT STORY

 And things get even more complicated. I like that you have Sesshoumaru following through on his word and that it seems everyone has to just learn to accept the way that things are now (including Sesshoumaru and Kagome). I can't wait to see how this changed dynamic changed the way the group acts and hunts jewel shards. Everything is changing and yet not the bloody chain. Can't wait to see what madness ensues with souls that keep them close and friends who watch it all take place :)

I loved it when Sesshoumaru and Kagome stoped for the night and he ended up sleeping right next to her and how they need to be next to each! And hell ya Sesshoumaru put Inuyasha in his place! GO SESHOUMARU! And GO YOU for writing this chapter and this story, you just made my day I could not be happier THANK YOU SO MUCH I LOVE YOUR STORY!!! I can't wait until you update again!!

Ohhhh, thank you! thank you! Finallyyy someone has put that darn hanyou in his place! It was about time! Now, we can get down to the real business of having Kagome start to see how good Sesshoumaru is for her and she can finally, finally let go and fall in love with the right dog demon-Sesshoumaru. Whoooooo! Let the falling in love..begin! I cannot wait for the next update. Please hurry.

just read the entire story! freaking awesome! i love it, update sooooooooon plz :) ty btw chapter 7 was especially well written :)

It was wonderful to see that you had updated! I love this story and had missed your updates so much! I loved that Kagome doesn't realize that she must be closer to Sesshomaru than she thinks, and I feel bad for Sessh, he seems to really care for her and is willing to sacrifice his happiness for her. Please, please update soon again! LG

What an intense chappie!!

As usual, this was an AWESOME addition to the story! I love it and can't wait for more!

CHIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEe

OMFG!

that was

awesomesauce!

way to go at pissing off your mother in law Kagome! though i hafta say arrogant bish needs to learn that not everything can go her way because she says so. she hired someone to chain them together, even if she didnt know whom the female would be, and didn't even consider any thought to who that woman would be or what duties she might have, not only has kagome had the duty of the shikon since birth but since her last life, at this point i would even dare to say that the kami probably had some hand in that time traveling as well. How mighty she thinks herself! i really hope at some point kagome can put her foot down with the mother in law and can at least be her own woman without all the proper etiquette stuff thats been forced down her throat.

I hafta say i think i always feel so much compassion for your kagome she takes all that life, fate, and others have brought to her so much better then many others would ever dare to attempt to. wonderful update! more please!

Wonderful job as usual Chie.  I like how you handled the reunion... very spot on with characterization and your pacing is masterful.  Your portrayal of Kagome's feelings is what really hooks me, realistic and powerful.

I do hope that Sesshoumaru can communicate in some way his need for contact.  Kagome is bright, surely she'll pick up on a dog's instinctual need for contact.

Yea! A new chapter! You just made my week. Thanks Chie! =) The historical part in the author’s notes was a cool fact I didn't know. =)

Have a wonderful week!

0.0 That was an amazing chapter!

Great chapter! Inuyasha sure got a wake up call. Update soon!

YES! You have finally let Inuyasha have it. Thank you for the update.

Your doing a really good job on this fanfiction, at least in my opinion. Your grammar and spelling are both top notch and the words of the story flow very easily. I found my favorite part in this chapter, to be Sesshoumaru's protective mate side. That was a very good portrayal of what I beleive Sesshoumaru would've reacted. My tips to you, are maybe add a bit more depth to Kagome's character? She's developed quite a bit in the past few chapters, and I think that you've got her character heading in a very nice direction.

Wow.  That was really well done.  I was really worried that the experience was going to be very uncomfortable.  I was bracing my self to feel sorry for Kagome that her first time wasn't with someone she completely loved.  However, that's not what I felt at all after reading it.  I thought the way you made Sesshoumaru and Kagome treat the situation was perfectly done.  It was honest and real and you could really feel the trust between them.  It was very tasteful too.  You gave just the right amount of details so we could feel what they felt without making it too sexual or lemony.  But it is nice to know Sesshoumaru knows what he's doing ;p hehe  But what really made this chapter lovely is that you really know that his treatment of her stems from the respect and tenderness he feels for Kagome.  And for Kagome, her acceptence came from her trust and respect in him.  You did good ^^d  Keep up the good work! 

I really love your story, and I just love how sweet this chapter was! I can't wait until you update again so that we can all see what happens next.

And we have made another step forward. I wonder how things will change from here esp with Sesshoumaru making an even bigger change. I do like that the story is moving forward slowly but surely without leaving big gaps in between. The friendship has already started but I wonder how they will progress from here. I truly look forward to the adventures of next time of mated life with the ole' ball and esp chain :)
