Loved the updated chapter! Hope you have a safe trip. I enjoyed this chapter and loved how the suspicions are rising. Oka is definitely up to something and I can't wait to see what it is! Much love to you. <3

Soo... does this mean that Oka has always been the one to be pulling the strings from the start? Or was Oka replaced by an imposter? I look forward to finding out the truth. I wonder if Kagome will be able to do maiko activities as she once did before... how will her injuries affect her life as Fuji? Keep up the good work and update soon :P

[The morning sun illuminated his moonshine tresses, giving her the impression of a strange but mesmerizing union of day and night, while his chiseled androgynous features contrasted so beautifully against his very masculine physique and voice.] Drool. That's all I can say. Again, your brilliance shines through your incredible writing and work ethic. I absolutely love this chapter and the subtle foreshadowing that came with it. Once again, FANTASTIC work, MT!

You are too sweet, this was a very good chapter. This leads us in to more of the mystery of Kagome being a maiko! Of course I want them to cuddle all day, but this makes the story continue to be interesting :)

Thanks for sharing it with us, have a great trip!

please please update quickly its torture not knowing what happens earlier! ")

In the earlier chapters, I wanted to believe that Oka was the one who had set everything up for Kagome. But I had refused to believe it because it's just what you, the author, would want the readers to think before revealing who the true culprit was! Now, I'm beginning to have second thoughts. Oka really does seem like the most likely person, but I'm sure you still have more tricks up your sleeve! lol. There is a part of me who knows to suspect the most unlikely person because that's usually how mysteries go. Which means that Yanagi should be a suspect too. Still... she seems genuine in her reaction to Kagome's return. But at the same time, they are usually the best of actors when it comes to deception.

MissTeak, you have me thinking way to much about this. lol. I think my head is going to explode with all the possibilities there could be. I don't know how I'm going to wait for your return to update! lol. I'll be swimming in MissTeak Withdrawal Syndrome or Wisteria Withdrawal Syndrome. LOL. Seeing as how you're leaving soon, I'm guessing this will be the last chapter you post before you leave. So I'm going to wish you a safe and happy trip! I hope you have fun and do remember to return! lol.

You go girl!!! Update with awesome chapters like you've never updated before! Lol, seriously, great job! Can't wait for the next installment. ^_^

They are catching on for sure! >:D Oka's gonna get it! I can't wait for the next chapter! I'm so jealous of you going off to Japan and all. I'm thinking about studying abroad there next summer, or once I save up enough money. Will you keep a blog of your travels?

MISS TEAK! :mega glomps!; I love this story so much and was so happy to see the latest chapters. You write it so well and I am alwasy pleased to read what you have written.

  The mystery deepens and i love every bit. I can hardly wait (but will) for the next chapter.

 Have fun on the trip!

 Huge hugs!

love the new chapter! though the interactions between sesshomaru and kagome had to be reduced due to the circumstances they are in, it's nice seeing kagome back in kyoto as fuji. Also, it is certainly nice to see the plot thickening!!

Mmm okay.

I totally screwed up, and put the review for chapter 1! DARN IT! You know how this happens? Its because I keep it open when I read, because I write notes as I do my reading ,lmao. I must have clicked right away in the first chapter, then went on and click chapter 56. Goodies. My apology hun, lmao.

Oh and in my review, when I wrote "pooch" I meant "pouch" as I mentioned, it might be a little early for me to be awake especially when I only got like 6 hours of sleep, lol. OH, and you know what, I forgot to mention something in my other review.

I love how Kagome says Sesshomaru is conflicting, because I think it not only makes him, him, but it also make him perfect. THe way he's cold, but warm. He leaves a mystery, but when the time is right, you know he'll protect her and what not. I think it was neatly inserted, and it has much meaning.

Anywho, I'm out =3

AHHHH!

Honestly, I have to say that this is a treat, I didn't expect you to update so soon again, especially since you're leaving. Now don't get me wrong, this is a great thing of course, i'm so happy! I'm just mentioning it was a nice surprise this morning when I woke up! =3

Now on to the review for this lovely chapter;

I am so excited for that trip, because I know that once they get there, some of the mystery will be revealed, and you will grace us with some more details, lol. I've been trying to figure out the scheme on my own, but you know what? I couldn't, lmao. You have out smart me my love, which is not hard, lol.

Anywho, I think it was so adorable when Kagome wanted to take a peek to see if Sesshomaru was tryign to take a peek, lmao. I'm like awee do it, but I do agree it wouldn't be proper especially since she is supposed to be more sophisticated, but nonetheless, it would be adorable. Im sure Sesshy would have looked.

I have a feeling their little plan will work, like it won't turn back on them or anything. Why? Because Sesshomaru organized it, and I dont see him messing up anything, lmao. No, but, I know a few things will go wrong in itself, because things always do... but we'll see. OH and, I was so worried when Kagome thought if Sesshomaru only loved her because he had basically been forced to. I dont think he does, at least I really hope he doesnt just because of that.

AND OMG I KNEW IT! THE MOMENT OKA SPOKE "YOU MUST HAVE SUFFERED SO MUCH" and I went KNEW IT BI--WITCH! Lmao. She just gave herself away, and apparently she didn't even realize it! Oh god, that moment, I loved it. I just like open my mouth in gasp, and my eyes were wide open. it is for sure now that she had something to do with this.

I think she is upset that Kagome is alive, but of course she can't show it, lol. I mean it would give her away, although she already did that but she doesn't know. Anyway, it sounded to fake the way she was acting and talking, it was so different from the previous times we saw her. She was worried and stressed, it was obvious.

I'm glad both Kagome and Sesshomaru caught her little mistake, because at least now they know they have to be careful with her because she can't be trusted. Although I really didn't like the way she was looking at Kagome's pooch, and I'm glad Sesshomaru noticed, because well, obviously he's the one who can protect Kagome, lmao.

Gosh, I hope she won't have to stay there on her own, or I see bad things happening. I know they won't leave her alone.

Great job hun!

hey this is great i love this story. thank you for allowing me entrance into the world that is wisteria.

MT, I must say that I owe you so many, many, many long-due reviews!!! You never cease to amaze me with your beautiful descriptions and your miles-deep characterizations. I admit - I am in AWE of you, LadyTeak. I've always had this ridiculously huge admiration for plotlines like these. To have added in bits and pieces significant to certain events in the future of the story in the very beginning takes such patience, creativity, smarts, and LOTS of pre-planning and thinking! You. Are. So. AMAZING. I love you and your story as always, and again, I'm so sorry for this ashamedly belated review!

Hey! i used to read this story on fanfiction.net until today. this version is thirteen chapters ahead and i'm glad i found it. :D

And you know what... i think i know who the mysterious person is...... it's you!!! :P

yeah, you!! who other than the author plans every 'coincidence' to bring the two closer?

LOL ^_^

you're story is beautiful. And don't you dare bother telling that you have bad english. cause it's not

i enjoy reading the story. you don't need complex vocabulary to write a good story

simplicity is more powerful than one imagines

keep up your good work and keep writin

Oh wow, this is getting really interesting. The plot thickens, dun dun dun. Though I don't want Kagome to go back to the geisha house :(

Oh my...did you know I read your fanfic in two days? Uh-hu, I'm hooked. I was like "ok, so Wisteria gets nominated a lot, wins a lot, and there's even fanart for the story...I think I can try reading it. Someday when I have free time." And my free time came (well, I made it come, stupid school leaves me drained) and the days went by and I couldn't pull myself away from my laptop and my mind was screaming "What the hell! Why didn't I read this before! Am I stupid or what!" Because, you know? You're awesome and your story is too.

So I'm your new fan (: Recently I had been wanting to find a fic that was romantic but 'real' and that could leave me wanting for more, but I don't know, I've been lazy to look around and I just so happened to remmember the title of your fic when I was browsing the net for names of flowers.

Wow.

I cried too...and went all starry-eyed with Sesshoumaru's "Then I will fall with you". OMG!! Fangirl squeal! What I really like the most about your fic is that I can see it clearly. I mean, your redaction practically 'paints' the events in my mind and I feel...connected. I have two or three images still roaming around and I think I'll fanart you soon. (:

And congratulations for graduating from college! I wish you the best and hope you don't miss your student life too soon hahaha, sometimes I feel terrified just thinking about graduating. Lucky me I still have like 2 years left, te-hee.

Yes, I'll stop rambling now. I want to know who's the evil-doer but I'll patiently wait for the next update. Have fun in Japan! (I so want to go! I envy you. Like, hardcore envy!! X3)

Ja ne!

-(A very happy) Kanz.

Can I just say that I am impressed that you have managed to think this all out. I love watching all the pieces fall into place and Im making some guesses of my own. I can't wait to see the growing love that Sesshoumaru has for Kagome and what that has him doing for her. Love conquers all and hopefully we will get to see that soon :)

MissTeak, you once again wrote another amazing chapter! I love the interaction between Kag and Sess in this chapter and the previous chapter. Especially when Kag told Sess she wanted him as her personal scented pouch. lol Had me going there!  Congrats on finish all your exams and college! Have a safe trip to Japan (you are so lucky! always wanted to visit there.). Can't wait to read more when you get back! :)

Oohhh, the mystery! MissTeak, you are fabulous at creating mystery! I'm so anxious to find out who the person behind those plans are already! It's killing me. I bet you, when you return from Japan, I'd have died from anxiety. LOL. I should kidnap Sesshoumaru. You've portrayed him so perfectly in this chapter, and even in every single previous chapters. The minor fluff between him and Kagome are always so heartwarming. You've really, really brought every single detail to life within my mind. It's truly amazing and you never fail to exceed my expectations with your words. They flow so well and I wish I could just read on and on forever!
