Three Days To Learn

The night we announced our mating and the date of which the pack went nuts. They celebrated happily but those who knew what happened to cause this didn't participate. Me and Sesshomaru returned to the palace and I slept with him in bed. I felt I was obligated to.

That morning, I woke up looking at the ceiling weighing the pros and cons of my situation. Pros: mom would be happy I mated, pack will feel more united and stable, I was imprinted on him anyways. Cons: how our agreement came to be, my reluctance to let go of my pride, and the fact I just don't feel ready for this. I still felt horribly guilty for loosing control like that. It's, never happened to me before.

I knew he was watching me. It was obvious, he had his head propped up with his elbow. I could feel him looking at me. When I finally looked at him, I really looked at him. The morning light was filtering in, reflecting off his hair making his eyes pop. The magenta of his cheeks, blue of his moon and red of the top of his eyelids kept him vibrant. He wasn't a bad looking male by no means. In fact, he was the best damn male I had ever seen. Yet, I could just blame that on being imprinted on him.

I got up and mimicked his position staring into his eyes. I wanted, no, need to know what they held. This man was going to be bound to me for the rest of our lives starting in just three days. Neither of us spoke for awhile and I finally realize that he was searching my eyes. Finally he got up and I followed his lead. We both grabbed clothes and went to his private bathing chambers. He went first, then I went. I was surprised to see him waiting for me. I didn't think he would've even thought to wait for me.

"We have much to speak of." Sesshomaru stated evenly.

"Which would be? I don't see anything important that needs going over. The plans are set." I said evenly blankly blinking at him. I wasn't going to give him an inch yet. I needed him to make the first move if he wanted to do this.

"Personal issues. We shall leave the village until the full moon." He informed. I rose my eyebrows at this. He wanted the two of us to get away to talk for three days? That's a big first move.

"Alright then, we can go once the betas have been informed." I nodded my head.

"No need, they are aware." He said walking away. I didn't hesitate to follow him. We didn't pack anything and the pack gave us respectful nods as we passed. It felt like nothing had changed. Yet in my eyes, it all flipped upside down. Just as we were leaving the village I saw Timber chasing down her recruits barking out their mistakes rudely. Once she saw me she flattered giving me this look that said. 'Say the word, I'm here.' I shook my head and pointed my chin at her group with a smirk.

"You ass." She grumbled as she ran past. I gave off a dry chuckle then redirected my attention to Sesshomaru. He had stopped to wait for me and continued walking the moment I looked back to him. So I followed, with this strange gut feeling. Like when the wind blows and you smell spring coming, a change was about to happen.

Speaking of which, traders were going to start coming to our village now that we have traded with them. We had great economy, a rare items we didn't need anymore. Demonic items that others would love to have. Of course, we would keep the best of these items. Japan didn't need them with the small wars going back and forth between the lands. Especially now that the demons had all be wiped out. Their lands are being invaded and claimed by other lords. I was surprised Sesshomaru was letting his lands be claimed like that. Did it not bother him?

There was so much we needed to discuss. I don't know where to even start. I didn't even know if I should take any sort of lead in this conversation. Did I deserve to even be considered at this point? Was I supposed to suffer in silence alone? What did he want me to do?
