~X~

During that first week in Egypt, Kagome had learned of the many Egyptian Gods the Egyptians worshipped and even met with some of them too, as her and the other three shrine maidens traveled to temple to temple to temple. Their task this week was to follow the Ancient Egyptian religion and boy, was it complex! Kagome never thought the Egyptians were so fine tuned with the concept of life after death and the afterlife… Making sure the souls that have departed the land of the living would pass on in one piece, ensuring everything would be alright.

Those four maidens had to learn about the many deities Egyptians worshipped, the rituals, the hymns and prayers… There was a point where they had to remove their bracelets and speak in the old Egyptian language as and learning the hymns in said language. It wasn't like they had to learn the entire language, they just needed to know the true meaning of these prayers and become in tune with funerary texts.

And to her luck… When they went to one of the rituals that week, she met with Atem's cousin, Seto. She learned that the priests would have to perform these rituals and Kagome watched the entire thing, becoming quite engrossed in Egyptian culture.

The ritual only lasted for an hour within that Temple of Debod, having prayed to the deities here as this temple was standing on its last bit of strength. It looked ready to collapse sometime soon! There were plans of rebuilding it in the near future, though.

And that week, she had come to know of Seto, the priest and their oracle, Ishtar. Ishtar was the woman who had taught those four shrine maidens everything about Egypt and teaching them about their culture. She was the one who told Atem about Anubis' plan to escape the underworld when the planets align. And to top it all off, Ishtar was human. She had been blessed since birth and it was only fitting for her to work under Atem as his oracle.

As for the priest… Seto was quite the character. He was cruel, if she had to be blunt. He was the complete opposite of his cousin, Atem, and if she was certain, Seto would likely take the chance to take throne from him if it the possibility opened up. But there were good sides to him, though. He treated the shrine maidens with utmost care and ensured of their safety when traveling to the many temples. And even all that, she noticed those looks Seto gave Kisara every now and then, almost like the one's Sesshoumaru gave her after they kissed.

Kagome immediately blushed at the thought

Sesshoumaru…

Whenever it came to the topic about him, Kagome was starting to have these… Feelings… about the DaiYoukai. Feelings she could not explain. She had suspected she'd come to grow quite attached to the male but was it the same for him? The girl knew he had some interest in her or else he wouldn't have ever come with her to Egypt. And every now and then whenever she came back to her suite after a long day of prayer, he would give her one of those looks. Those looks that actually held a tiny bit of emotion and she never understood why he did, either.

Actually, that DaiYoukai was on her mind a lot lately. Why?! Yes, she liked him and she found herself liking him more and more to the point where she could not wait to see him after coming back from visiting the temples.

Ugh.

This was starting to take a toll on her mind.

It was mid-afternoon on that last day of visiting the temple of Debod, Kagome once again riding upon the back of Asche with that shrine maiden Greece who went by the name of Anna. She was a shy, quiet little girl and came to Egypt by herself. At first she did not wish to go from what she told Kagome but that's when her uncle told her about the Great War Egypt and Greece had that took her father's life. The reason why he fought was to actually stop the fighting. Her father wanted nothing more than for her to grow up into a beautiful girl some day and not go down the path he took. And when she heard of Anubis' plan to revive; she knew that this was something she had to put an end to, lest it caused another war of sorts.

The other two girls, Lakoya and Dria, were riding upon the back of that wyvern, Freed. Both Aria and Kisara were there as well in their dragon forms, taking space in the skies above not too far from their grounded companions, likely keeping watch on the area. Activity seemed to light up within the desert the day when those shrine maidens arrived, constantly being attacked by bandits, thugs, thieves… And their target would be none other than those maidens. They were likely Anubis' followers and they would do anything to revive their god once more.

Seto and a few of Atem's servants had trailed between the two dragons that carried the maidens, the lot of them rising upon the back of camels beneath that hot, burning sun.

It was too fucking hot.

Anna saw Kagome sway from her spot as she sat behind the miko and this had her wondering if she was okay.

She was definitely not okay.

Kagome could see the fortress in the distance but her vision started to blur in and out. Sweat would form upon her head and her neck, rolling down further into her clothing.

She'd then feel a soft touch upon her shoulder in which it was the girl behind her. Kagome's head turned and found the concerned look of Anna sent her way and she knew what she was thinking, even if she didn't voice it.

“I'm okay, just tired…”

Voice was slightly rasped when she spoke but then suddenly the girl felt quite nauseous. Her stomach rumbled a tad and really felt the need to puke. Oh god. She couldn't just puke on Asche's back! Her heartbeat suddenly picked up and then she began to hunch over upon her spot on the dragon's back and suddenly felt quite dizzy.

What was happening?

All sounds would be soon phased out and the only thing she could hear was her fast pacing heartbeat. And not only Anna noticed something was wrong but so did Asche as his keen hearing heard the miko's heart beat pick up.

“Kagome, are you okay?”

There was no reply from the miko.

Kagome's vision was completely gone and then everything started to fade out until there was nothing but darkness.

Kagome's body swayed to the left and she slid right off of the red dragon with Anna's eyes widening upon seeing this.

“Kagome!”

Anna tried to grab a hold of Kagome but she couldn't catch her in time and soon her body would fall onto the sandy ground below.

But her body did not come in contact with the sand as the large scaled hands of the black dragon caught her right on time.

Aria noticed Kagome was acting a bit strangely when she gazed at her from above, seeing her sway about from the spot. She began her descent and went to ask if she was okay but by the time she was about to get close, Kagome's body slumped over and fell right off of Asche's back. Aria caught her and immediately she began to worry for Kagome's health as she looked terrible.

“Kagome, are you okay?!”

All of the dragon's had stopped the moment they heard both Aria and Anna call for Kagome's name in worry, the white dragoness landing upon the ground as she heard this and now they would all crowd around the girl that fell limp in Aria's hands.

“Kagome! Are you okay?! I'm sorry!”

Obviously the red dragon thought this was all his fault, hearing the worry in that ethereal voice of the red dragon.

“What did you do!? You are always so clumsy!”

The green dragon venting his frustrations upon Asche and growled at him, the two girls he was carrying upon his back now peering over at the currently passed out Kagome.

Well, she wasn't passed out, surprisingly. She was still somewhat conscious. She could hear all their voices but she was just far too weak to reply, let alone move. What was happening to her?

“Move, give the girl some space.”

Came the strong voice of Seto and those dragons backed away as told but still remained near, those big eyes of theirs remaining upon the miko.

Seto drew near to Kagome upon the back of that camel, tapping Aria's large scaled digit to rise up her hands so he could get a better look at Kagome. Once she had done so, he'd peer closely at Kagome who was still breathing but she looked to be quite flushed. She was sweating more than the norm an average human would under the heat and that left him one conclusion.

“She has fallen prey to the heat.” Pausing to reach out and gently brush the back of his fingers over her head, brushing some of her bangs away. Her skin was burning hot. “Bring me water.”

Is that what it was? Heat exhaustion of some kind? Never had she ever experienced something like this before. She felt Seto's touch upon her head and she had to wonder how much she was burning up right now. Some seconds would pass and Kagome felt something cool poor onto her head and it felt so nice. Was that water?

“She cannot stay in this heat any longer. We must bring her back so that she could cool down and rest.”

Aria was so relieved that Kagome was okay and so were the other dragons as well.

Thankfully they were close to the kingdom so they did not need to travel too far for the miko.

~X~

Kagome had long fallen asleep once the dragons and Seto managed to get her back to safety within Atem's palace.

The sun's heat had overpowered her and when she'd arrive back at the palace, exhaustion took over and fell right to sleep. She was within the medical ward that was located on the lowest floor and here the rooms were quite cool in temperature. Perfect for Kagome because she had to cool down that body temp. The servants had long removed her original clothing to assist in lowering her body temp, placing her in a simple silken dress that wrapped around her form loosely.

And that miko would be safely tucked underneath light covers upon a bed, slowly recovering her strength back. And when she slept, there in the medical ward with her would be Sesshoumaru.

Actually, he was the first one here when he learned about the news of Kagome. He didn't even let the Palace guard finish speaking when he mentioned of Kagome's status. And he easily found the medical ward having caught wind of her scent and followed upon it but when he arrived where she would be, Aria informed him of what happened. She simply passed out beneath the powerful temperature of the sun and just needed to cool down and get some rest. Inuyasha came after and was also briefed on what happened, the two waiting outside until they had known that Kagome would be okay.

And she would be okay, the lot of them letting Kagome get her rest once one of the servants confirmed of her health but Sesshoumaru stayed behind, just to be certain. Rin did tell him to protect Kagome, did she not? And he was not there to help her unfortunately. Should anything happen to the miko, he knew Rin would be quite devastated at that and Sesshoumaru wasn't so sure he would ever forgive himself for that. He was a man of his word and he was not about to break a promise to his dear Rin.

The DaiYoukai would watch her sleeping face, the girl sleeping soundly as can be. Was she dreaming again?

The miko was not dreaming, oh no, somehow after she slipped into the lands of unconsciousness, she had found herself in the spiritual realm.

Kagome's eyes shot right open when she `woke', her head whipping around when she noticed that she was not in the land of the living. She knew this place. The feel of energy all around her, the vast, open sky that lit up with nothing but the stars and various planets in the distance millions of miles away… Yes, this had to be the spiritual realm.

But why was she here?

And how the hell did she manage to get here involuntarily?

She'd glance down her front and noticed she was no longer wearing her miko clothing but instead, she wore a loose, sleeveless dull colored dress that stopped just mid thigh.

Why was she wearing this?

She tried to remember what happened prior, combing through her memory banks. Then she'd remember the hot, blazing sun above, beating down its rays hard upon her porcelain flesh and felt quite nauseous.

Oh, right… She passed out beneath the heat because it was so hot! She remembered hearing the concerned voices of those dragons but after that, it was all a blur.

She must have passed out somehow.

Kagome then sensed all the souls around her and for some reason she could not do this before. She was able to pinpoint where said souls would be exactly with ease and blinked slowly. Had she somehow improved over the past week within Egypt? Kagome would let her spiritual body take flight, hovering just a few inches above the `ground' and closed her eyes, now falling silent and began to concentrate.

She was actually looking for someone. When she used her power to spread through the vast energies and space of the realm, she managed to find her target and so, she would move in that direction. In no time at all she would find a dark, purple and red colored aura before her in the shape of a sphere no bigger than her fist and slowly she reached out to touch it. Her hands would now hold that aura, feeling the warmth within her palms. In truth, it was Naraku's soul. The girl would pull this aura close to her and stared deeply at it.

“Naraku, I need you to take me to the underworld.”

No reply came but she would eventually release her hold on the swirling aura and watched as it reshaped into Naraku's human form she had seen once before. Naraku now gazed back at Kagome with a quizzical expression along with confusion, unsure why she would be asking him this. Did she have a death wish? Or perhaps some sort of plan? He did notice that she looked to be different though, as if her power was more refined than the last time he saw her. What happened?

And that look she gave him, he knew she made up her decision. But should he take her?

“If anything happens to you, I cannot ever forgive myself.”

And speaking of which, why was she here, anyway? And how did she manage to find him in this vast open space of nothingness? Had she improved that much in her time away from the realm?

And many more questions came within that man's mind, needing to find answers that only Kagome could give him. But before that happened, he'd seen Kagome shake her head and that aura would flare in such a vivid display of pink and purple shades… It was beautiful.

“I'll be fine. Just take me there, please.”

Naraku gave the woman one last look before turning and began to float away in one direction, Kagome following right behind him.

This meant that he had to take her to the deepest parts of the spiritual realm where all the rather nasty and malicious spirits would be, lingering around the doors that led to the underworld and perhaps there could be more dangerous things beyond that door. Was she trying to visit Anubis? Did she think up of a way to stop the gods' revival? He had honestly hoped so.

At first, it didn't feel like they were moving at all from their current location as there was nothing but endless stars and sprites in that sky but she would soon notice those stars began to burn out, leaving nothing behind. Kagome then felt the area grow denser, thickening with evil intent. Yes, they were indeed heading in the right direction. Those stars, one by one, would burn out, leaving nothing but darkness in its place. The light began to fade away and soon there was nothing but absolute darkness. The light from Kagome's and Naraku's aura provided enough vision to illuminate the area.

Naraku then stopped and soon Kagome would stand beside him, the two now staring at quite the large gate when they came close. It was tall, perhaps reaching near thirty feet in height, possibly more, those large double doors made out of stone. Kagome could sense the ominous aura around it, followed by the wails and screams of forsaken souls beyond it. Naraku looked at Kagome's face and for some reason, he did not see fear. She kept that dignified and determined look, showing him strength he had seen once before when he fought her and that hanyou.

Was she truly willing to do this?

Kagome nearly gasped when the stone doors began to come `alive' when various skeletal arms that were once frozen began to move about, boney hands clawing and reaching out for the one who dared to enter into the realm of the dead. She could see the skulls that were implanted into the door light up as red eyes glowed brightly and immediate set their sights on Kagome. Then those doors moved and heard the loud creaking sound of those double doors opening up inwards, revealing the dreadful place within.

And the moment those doors opened up, in the real world where Kagome's body would rest, Sesshoumaru noticed her breathing became quite shallow and quieter. This had him staring at her in question, wondering why her breathing shortened. Was she alright? She looked fine, honestly, but why the sudden change in her breathing? The DaiYoukai peered closer to the girl, having listened to her faint heart beat and noticed that too would soften in pace.

…She was dying!? Why?!

Back in the spiritual world, Kagome would now take one last look at Naraku and gave him one of her soft smiles and he wasn't so sure if he'll be ever seeing that again, should this girl go beyond those doors.

“If you stay too long, there's no telling what may happen, Kagome.”

A warning she would very well keep in mind when she wandered in the realm of the dead.

She'd nod her head at Naraku and the miko took some steps forwards and walked beyond that door and within seconds that door would shut behind her with a sickening hiss heard afterwards.

The moment those doors shut behind Kagome, her body in the real world completely shut down. Her breathing stopped and Sesshoumaru's eyes widened when he saw this. She was fine just a moment ago, why had her body just suddenly stopped working? He moved from his seat and pulled those sheets from her body and he'd seen the color from her flesh slowly fade away as the seconds went.

She was really dying. Didn't Rin tell him to protect her? How could he protect her from this?!

“Miko, you cannot die here.” Growling at her while she lay there motionless. The girl was unresponsive, like a doll with life no longer there. She was stronger than this, he knew that. They both knew that. So why was her life slipping away with each passing second?

Kagome was currently wandering the lands of the dead, the place looking like one vast, barren wasteland of a volcanic region. It was hot, more humid if anything, the ground up heaved in various places with spurts of hellish flames spewing from the cracked earth. The sky was dark and cloudy, stretching as far as the eye could see and not a shred sunlight even managed to get through. Was there even sunlight in the underworld?

She had to make this quick.

The miko was here to see Anubis and learn of why he chose to side with the darkness. Not everyone was `born' evil. Naraku was one good example. He was reformed and not everyone had the strength to change without great dedication.

And the more she treaded into this realm, the more she felt herself feel those wandering souls all around her and the girl was currently surrounded by those forsaken souls yet there did not reveal themselves to her, still remaining in the distance within the shadows. She could hear their whispers, unable to make out what was being said but she knew it was of malicious intent. It had been centuries since one of the living dared to venture into the realm of the dead on their own.

However, the air began to change swiftly when something was heading her way, closing in on her fast. Was it an enemy?!

Quickly Kagome would again have her aura flare, providing quite the burning light that had those wandering souls scatter and flee from the girl, seemingly not liking the powerful holy aura she gave off.

And there she saw it in the distance, a large, winged creature currently in flight and headed right for her location. It roared loudly as it soared through the skies and Kagome could sense the massive amounts of evil that spilled from its being. Was this Anubis?! That creature would land before Kagome some meters away, the girl nearly losing her footing upon the ground but kept herself steady, still keeping her sights on the creature that arrived. Those large, feathered wings upon its back disappeared the moment it began to pace towards Kagome and she saw its burning red eyes stare at her and her only. Was it going to attack her?! She sensed hostility from the creature but she just couldn't find herself to back away.

The creature had to be about ten meters tall. Its body was thick and muscular, Kagome seeing those bulging muscles beneath its purplish skin. Massive claws upon its hands and feet and its head was in the shape of a jackal. Various spines jutted out from around the back of its head and its neck and shoulders, more spines found protruding out from its knuckles and elbows. She knew this creature had some sort of relation to Egypt as it wore a thick, beaded necklace around its neck with a large emerald within the middle in the shape of a scarab. A golden loin cloth was its only form of clothing and it resembled that of what those Egyptian guards would wear at Atem's palace.

Kagome gulped. The creature stared at her hard as it crouched down before her, growling lowly as it beared its sharpened incisors to her.

No, she could not show fear here. She had experienced far worse than this. The creature was actually impressed that the tiny girl before him showed no signs of said fear as she was pretty much looking at death right in the eyes.

“You are brave, girl, to come here. Or you might be quite ignorant, given your situation.”

Kagome heard the beast talk, its voice deep and sent chills down her spine.

“Are you the one they call Anubis?”

“No, I am not. I am Husani, one of the many guards who serve underneath our god, Anubis.”

He wasn't Anubis?! Then why did he have such massive power that almost brought her to her knees?! Did the other guards that served beneath Anubis also have this much power as well? Dear heavens, should Anubis revive and let these creatures roam free...

“Why are you here?”

She heard that tone in its voice, knowing quite well it was angry. Was it angry at her for coming here? Or was it just angry all the time?

“I've come to see Anubis. I wish to—“

Kagome's words were promptly cut off when that beast began to laugh in that boisterous laughter, the miko staring at the creature oddly. Its laughter would die down and he'd lean in closer to snarl at Kagome but she did not back down, remaining where she stood. She would not dare show weakness.

“Impudent girl! What makes you think that I, the stalwart Husani, would ever let you come near our god?! You who regard him as if you know who he is. You are nothing but a weak little girl who has signed her own death wish.”

And that's when Kagome's aura began to flare up in an instantly, glaring angrily at the creature before her. And when Kagome's temper rose, there's no telling what she may do. But Husani ignored this completely and his arm would raise, that large hand of his forming into a tight fist.

“Now, begone, wench!”

That fist would come crashing down onto Kagome, looking to crush her soul but the beast gasped in surprise when his fist came into contact with a powerful barrier. Kagome raised her hand in time to push out her power and block the attack sent her way and erected a powerful barrier in time to stop Husani's attack. She'd hear him growl out in annoyance and saw him pull back that arm, only to throw in another punch at her unbreakable barrier.

Kagome was getting quite annoyed with this beast as she was running out of time. She was here to see his Anubis, not his damn pets. After that second punch came in contact with her barrier, Kagome pushed out her bower again and the beats would howl out in pain the moment her holy power burned his fingers, almost feeling like she burned them clean off. How can such a tiny woman hold so much power?! Husani could not believe it. But the moment Kagome had launched off of that attack, her eyes widened and felt that same emptiness feeling once more.

She was completely drained out.

Husani watched as her body would fall limp and collapse onto the dirtied ground in a defeated heap. He was certain he had done nothing to her but he had came to the conclusion that she ventured far too long in here, thus, her spiritual body had gradually weakened. The creature grinned widely down at Kagome now; approach her closer to a point where his dark shadow loomed over her body, leaning his head down low to peer closely at the girl.

“Now I know who you are… You are one of those maidens that dare to prevent Anubis from making his grand escape from here, are you not?”

Kagome groaned weakly, unable to find any strength left in her to stand. She only managed to push herself up upon her elbows as the rest of her body laid upon its side but she couldn't make anymore movements than that. That's when she would be scooped right up into the large hands of that beast, Kagome's eyes now staring up at that jackal that began to sniff at her.

Husani had to admit, her scent was delicious. Did shrine maidens always smell this nice? Kagome saw that wicked grin form upon its muzzle and she shook her head.

“Put me down... or else…”

A loose threat that had the beast laughing out once more.

“A feisty one you are, girl. Perhaps I should have my ways with you before I take you to Anubis.”

What?! What the hell did he mean by that?!

No, this cannot happen… This will not happen! She tried to muster up some strength but she could not, already feeling herself slip away from consciousness. She knew that should she fall into darkness now, she would wake up somewhere she would not like to be, perhaps in the hands of that damn creature in front of her.

She needed to get out.

She needed to run. Run far away from here.

Soon she'd feel herself be moved, the beast now carrying her off to places unknown. No! This cannot happen! Kagome tried to climb out from his grasp but the girl gasped out in pain when his hand closed into a tight fist, securing her arms and legs from moving and gave squeeze that felt like he was going to crush her.

“You are not going anywhere, girl.”

She heard that deep menacing chuckle of theirs and knew of their intent. She didn't want to cry, she said she wasn't going to show any weaknesses and stuck to it!

She immediately thought of all her companions in the world of the living, almost as if she wasn't going to see them again. She told them all she was going to be fine and make it back in one piece but here she was about to lose her soul in the underworld! Kaede, Sango, Miroku, Shippou, Kohaku, Rin, Inuyasha, Sesshoumaru… They all filled up her thoughts and she was half a second away from crying, knowing full well she may not ever see them again.

`I'm sorry… I'm so, so sorry!'

So many things she wished to do before she went out with a bang, so many things she wished to say… Especially to Sesshoumaru. That DaiYoukai completely filled up her thoughts and felt absolutely horrible now because she may not be ever seeing him again. Her eyes shut tight and she wished as hard as she could, hoping he could save her somehow. She was about to be tainted in the many ways possible within the underworld by that foul beast and wasn't so sure her mind could take any of that. She saw that lecherous look the beast sent her way and lick those ugly chops of his… Disgusting!

`Sesshoumaru, please help me…!'

That small cry of help was so powerful that even Sesshoumaru heard her quiet and weakened voice in the land of the living when Sesshoumaru loomed over her physical body within the medical ward. The miko was in trouble and he could hear it in her voice. He had to save her. Where was she?!

As the seconds passed, her body grew paler and paler, all color from her flesh disappearing and those lips dried up and changed from a soft, rosy pink to a cold, disheartening blue. She was likely dead. Sesshoumaru would then feel the strong pulse of his sword, the Tenseiga, right beside him, the sword seemingly glowing now and so would that miko, an outline of a white, pale light surrounding her body.

Then he saw them. Those little demonic creatures surrounding the miko's body and looked ready to devour her flesh or perhaps do even more vile and disgusting deeds he had not wish to see. A low growl came from the DaiYoukai when he pulled out his sword, unsheathing it and pointed the blade at those creatures. They saw this too late and immediately he'd bring that blade down and slain those creatures, watching as they'd cry out in pain and dissipate into nothingness.

Time would continue to flow again when those creatures were gone, Sesshoumaru sheathing away his sword and brought the girl up into his lap when he'd return to his seat, his eyes searching her face and hoped she would awake soon. Long seconds passed that felt like an eternity to him, watching as color would return to her flesh, her body slowly growing warm by the second and those lips returning to its usual soft pink color. He'd hear her breathing pick up, her heart continuing to work and he felt the immediate rush of relief wash over him now that the girl had come back to life.

Kagome groaned lightly, eyes opening slowly and the first thing she saw was Sesshoumaru's face. He stared down at her and she could see the slight bit of concern in his facial features and upon realizing that she had returned to her world… she began to cry. Did he hear her small cry for help? Kagome immediately raised herself up and wrapped her arms around his neck, hugging herself close to him and was so thankful that she was back in the land of the living.

“Thank you so much Sesshoumaru…!”

He saved her. They both knew that. Sesshoumaru was still quite unsure what happened to the girl but he knew that she was in danger and he saved her from whatever hell she was going through. That's when he made his own promise to protect her. Not because Rin told him to, it was more so for himself because he knew that he couldn't ever forgive himself should the miko perish while under his care.

Slowly his own arms would wrap around her in return and remain there so the girl would recollect herself. And when he held her, he noticed that she was shaking. Shaking in fear. What happened for her to become this way? He did not ask her. Perhaps another time when she was feeling better.

Kagome clutched onto him for dear life and never let go, the girl so, so happy that Sesshoumaru saved her. Her feelings for the male grew quite deep after that event and the girl was happy to have such a companion like Sesshoumaru.

“Are you well?”

She heard him speak and head gave a nod against him, blinking those tears away. Such a horrible and heart wrenching experience… She hoped to never go through that again.

After long moments of holding onto him, she would then finally pull away as much as she didn't want to. Then she gazed at his face and ocean blues met with those same burning ambers, gazing into each other's face for long moments.

There's something she wanted to tell him but was unsure of how she should word this. She just couldn't find those words and gaze dropped down to her lap with a shake of her head.

“I'm sorry…”

A single brow rose slightly in question when he heard the girl speak, wondering what these words were for.

“Why do you apologize, miko?”

“Because my stupid decisions led me here… And you had to use your sword to save me.”

She wished it didn't have to come to that. She was certain she could've made it back on her own but her anger got the best of her as it always did and made things worse. So, she only wished to make it up to him somehow.

Sesshoumaru was having a hard time finding out why she felt the need to apologize, even after giving that reason. So what if he used his sword to save her? He'd do it again, too, if it ever came down to it.

Kagome slowly rose up her head to look upon the DaiYoukai before her and slowly a blush crept up upon her cheeks. Sesshoumaru saw this and again, he had to wonder what was going on in that pretty little head of hers. Had she thought up of something? Kagome took ina few breaths, trying her hardest to find these next set of words because they were going to kill her some day.

“In… return for saving… my life…. I am willing to… let you… have my body… for one night…”

Did he just hear that correctly? She uttered out every word so quietly, almost as if she was afraid to even speak. Was she was willing to go against her word and let him fuck her for just one night? Only one night?! In truth, Kagome had been losing to herself lately and just came to this decision. Some nights after coming back to her room after a long day within those temples, she could not stop her wandering hand that traveled down south. She was craving for a more better touch, something bigger even and that left her lusting after Sesshoumaru, as much as she did not wish to admit.

But how could she not?

She enjoyed those teeth of his every time he'd grab a hold of her flesh, leaving behind many marks across her skin. The thought of it already had her enticed.

Oh right, those teeth. “O-on one condition! You cannot mark me… until I say so.”

And Sesshoumaru took note of the immediate change in her scent and stared at her, hard. But what brought about this change in her words? Did she not wish to continue this until they'd return to Japan from Egypt? And she wished to not be marked? Was she still hung up on that good for nothing half-brother of his? Or was there some other reason for this condition she had given?

But hearing those words were great news to Sesshoumaru. Or rather, his inner beast. Already he was having a hard time in keeping his beast in check, knowing full well it had taken quite the liking to Kagome and only wished to claim her as its own. As their own. Kagome would watch Sesshoumaru quietly when he fell silent and waited to hear him speak. But what she got in return was a snarl.

Eh?!

For a split second, Sesshoumaru lost the reigns he had on his beast and Kagome's eyes widened as she saw the red tint flash within his eyes and those markings upon his cheeks thickened as the seconds went. What was happening to him?! Soon his hands took a hold of her waist and gripped tightly, the girl gasping in surprise at the sudden firm hold.

“I will have you. I will make you mine and I will make you beg for more. You will be screaming and writhing in pleasure with only my name leaving your lips.”

Dear kami. Was that even Sesshoumaru?! Her body was pulled in close and again she felt his lips attack at her neck and flesh would be rewarded with kisses and bite marks. Kagome could not hold back the quiet moan that escaped her lips, letting the DaiYoukai do whatever he wished to do to her. After hearing that voice, she was so frightened and aroused greatly at the same time. And then his hands slid up from her waist and grasped her breasts through the fabric of that silken dress she wore, growling at her when he began to knead those tender mounds.

She knew that look! Inuyasha looked like that once before when he lost control of his youki and here she was witnessing it again, this time it would be Sesshoumaru who had now lost control.

Kagome moaned when his touch grabbed at her again, her mind drawing a blank and could feel her lust slowly take form as the seconds went, feeling those long slender fingers grip and squeeze her breasts.

Wait, they could not do this here, of all places!

“S-sesshoumaru…! Please…!”

Again her voice was quiet but it was just enough to get Sesshoumaru out of that state. The moment he stopped those ministrations upon her body, he leaned away and stared at her for long moments, trying to remember what just happened. He watched her part her lips and begin to pant heavily, her arousal strong within that room and just couldn't remember what happened some seconds ago. Did he lose himself to his inner youkai?! That was absurd. To think Kagome was wanted this much by his beast.

Perhaps this may not be a good idea…

And what was stopping him from taking her here, anyway? The miko seemed against it though, for some reason.

Kagome saw the original Sesshoumaru return back to his senses, seeing his nostrils flare and inhale deeply. Slowly her hands would move and gently come to grasp his face; this act had him focusing his vision upon her as their gazes met once more.

“Sesshoumaru, are you okay?”

He'd seen that concerned look upon her face and growled lowly. He hated himself so much now because the miko saw him in that state. She must think he was weak! Silence grew between them and the DaiYoukai said nothing, removing his hold upon her chest and they'd again move down to gently grasp her waist.

Now before anything else happened, Aria made her entrance into that ward and Kagome immediately stiffened within Sesshoumaru's lap when she heard the door opening. Who was it?!

There wasn't enough time to do anything because the moment Aria stepped around that corner; she caught the two in quite the close proximity. Her face lit up like a fucking firework and Sesshoumaru growled lowly when his head turned, staring hard at his childhood friend with one of his deathly glares.

As for Kagome? She just wanted to die.

Aria had so, so, so, so many questions she wished to ask! She didn't think their relationship had budded this much! What all has happened since she left Japan that month ago?

She gave them one last look over before departing silently as she came, the two of them hearing the door shut behind the black dragoness.

Kagome was so embarrassed beyond recognition. She knew Aria was going to ask her so many questions and maybe further complicate things.

And when Aria stepped outside, she was approached by her three brethren and wished to know if Kagome was okay. Aria told those three dragons that she was completely fine and back into good shape and in good hands. They never knew what she meant by that but only Aria knew.

She'd then shoo them off, telling them to not bother Kagome for the moment because she was going to need some time to herself after that entry she gave!

Because she was going to need it.

~X~

As the day drew to the mid-afternoon, Kagome was back in her suite and so did the rest of the maidens, likely to gather their strength for the next coming days.

But to her dismay, she was not alone in her suite.

Again those four dragons would be there, likely to spend more time with the miko and the hanyou, finding their company to be quite pleasant! That and Aria was just all up in Kagome's business because of what she saw earlier that day. Aria was trying to get the juicy details from her and Kagome was blushing like mad all the while.

“Kagome, you need to tell me what happened!”

Kagome gave Aria one look that the dragoness knew she was quite annoyed that she kept bothering her about this. She was trying to keep this a secret! And Aria walked in on their `secret'.

“Okay, look… I'll tell you later, okay?”

Aria pouted. “But how long is later?! You need to give me the juicy details!”

Kagome grinned at her dragoness companion, gathering up her knapsack and now began to bring it with her out of her room and Aria continuously followed her. Wow, was she not going to let this up?

“Kagome, do you need help?”

The white dragoness looking over Kagome as she seemed to struggle just a bit with her heavy bag. Kagome quickly shook her head and offered the white haired girl a small smile, “No, no. I'm okay!”

She would slowly nod her head and moved out of her way when she walked by, making her way to the small kitchen within that suite. That's when Aria stopped following her and crossed her arms beneath her bust, watching the miko pull out some stuff from her bag. What was she going to do?

Inuyasha would look over towards Kagome when she began to take out all her ingredients needed to cook some ramen and that hanyou lit up so fast, the two dragon males watching the hanyou in question. Then they'd draw their gaze to Kagome in the distance who now began to prepare some food.

“You guys are about to witness and taste Kagome's cooking and you're gonna love it.”

Well, it's not like dinner wasn't going to be made tonight. The palace chef's were going to make dinner tonight but there would be no need to head to the dining room as Atem and a few of his priests would not be there tonight. Aria had told Kagome that Atem would have to prepare for the festival in about a day or so, in which Kagome was quite interested in hearing this. The festival was in about two day's time, a celebration to honor the coming planet alignment. It was a time where the Egyptians would bless their lands and prepare them for the big event.

So! Kagome thought it would be a perfect time to cook for herself and the Inu brothers but with those dragons here, seems she was going to make a large batch. Luckily she came prepared because that was the main reason why her knapsack was over stuffed.

But, she was still missing something… She needed that particular spice she tasted a week ago when Aria brought back some food for her.

“Aria, I need a favor from you.”

Brows rose in surprise upon hearing the miko speak to her but she would nod her head and listened to what she'd have to say.

“I need you to get me some of those spices the palace cooks use in their food… I want to try something.”

Aria pouted again but she'd then feel a soft grasp upon her shoulder and that would be coming from Kisara who looked at her but soon her gaze would go to Kagome and she'd nod her head.

“We'll get you these spices, Kagome.”

Aria blinked slowly. Wait, what?! Kisara was only making things worse and she was dragging her away! The two male dragons saw this and grinned as the black dragoness was dragged off with Kisara but now with them gone, ocean blues would now set her sights on those remaining dragons and immediately their grin disappeared. Uh oh.

“Don't think for a second you are off the hook. If you're going to hang around here, might as well put you to work, ne?”

Inuyasha started to laugh but he'd feel Kagome's eyes on him too and he would find her staring right back at him. His laughter died down and she would instruct all three of them to come help her with her cooking because she was going to need it.

She'd have Asche light up the stove with his fire and start boiling that water Freed had brought in as she instructed, Inuyasha now helping Kagome make that soy sauce broth. There went the vegetables and there went the meats and within half an hour, that suite started to smell delicious. Both Asche and Freed took in a deep breath through flared nostrils once Kagome's cooking would fill up that small space, their mouths beginning to water.

“Ah, ah. Still need a few things…”

And right on time, she'd hear some knocking upon the door and ordered Inuyasha to get it for her. He didn't like to be ordered around but he did what he was told or else Kagome wouldn't let him have some of her delicious ramen. Oh, speaking of those noodles, Kagome went to check on that pot and stirred it with that wooden spoon, noticing the texture of the noodles was slowly becoming soft. Just a few moments more and it'll be done.

“Kagome… What is that delicious smell!?”

Aria would return to the miko with what she asked for, bringing her various spices that were all contained in a tiny, small pouch that was about a tablespoon amount. Kagome nodded her thanks and she'd set those spices upon the counter, now getting back to the task at hand. Aria decided to take a seat at the dining room table and Kisara sat next to her, the other dragons doing the same as they sat upon the opposite side of the female dragons. Inuyasha sat at one end of the table and the only spot available was for Kagome at the opposite end of Inuyasha's spot.

“You'll see. I'm almost done.”

Kagome took a sample taste of her soy sauce broth and it was adequate for her tastes but it was missing that spice she wanted. After going through various spices that were brought to her, she found one that matched what she was going for and dumped all of it into the pot with her broth. And in minutes, the smell within that area would have those youkai's stomach growling as they were suddenly hungry. Kagome knew youkai did not eat much human food but that wasn't the case when it came to Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru.

Where was that DaiYoukai, anyway?

She glanced up from her spot and peered over, catching a glimpse of silver hair that flowed in the wind just outside the balcony. Huh, he really seems to like that spot. Could he smell her cooking, possibly?

Well, anyway, her food was likely done and now she began to gather up some bowls that were already provided in that cooking area, taking out seven bowls for the lot of them. She knew youkai had large stomachs, so, she'd pour out an adequate amount for all of them, placing one bowl before them upon that table. They stared hard into the bowl of `soup', seeing the steam rise from it and the delicious smell it gave off.

“Oh, one sec…”

She returned to her knapsack and brought out some chopsticks, handing them to all of them but Asche and Freed were completely lost on how to use them. Was this how they ate in Japan? They watched Aria and Inuyasha use them with ease, already digging into their bowls and seem them pick up those noodles with ease and slurp it right up into their mouths.

“Kagome! This is… this is so good!”

Asche pouted. They were already eating! And he was surprised to see that Kisara would be too, using those chopsticks as well. Not as skillful as the black dragoness and the hanyou but used it, nonetheless. Kisara just watched Aria and managed to figure it out somehow by just watching. Before Asche or Freed could say anything, she would place herself down between Asche and Freed and the red head felt his breath hitch in his throat when Kagome took a hold of his right hand. Her fingers, her touch… It was so soft. Oh god, keep it together man!

“Here, like this…”

She'd take one chopstick and tuck it beneath his clawed thumb upon right hand and the other stick would be held in her hand, mimicking as if she was writing on paper in mid-air by using her index and thumb and occasionally the middle finger would support her index finger. After demonstrating on how to use it, she'd place that chopstick in Asche's fingers and he'd begin to move it as Kagome did some moments ago.

“See, now you try.”

He'd reach forwards with his right hand and to his surprise; he managed to pick up a tiny piece of meat!

“There you go. Easy, wasn't it?” The girl smiling to Asche and gave him one of her infamous heartfelt smiles and Asche blushed lightly. That damn, cute smile of hers!

“Thank you, Kagome.”

She'd nod happily to him and now she turned to Freed, giving him the same treatment. It took him a few tries to get it but he eventually got it done and once he did, those dragons began to dig through their bowls like if it was nothing.

“Slow down, slow down! The food isn't going anywhere, you guys.”

Inuyasha was chowing down that ramen because he had longed for this day. That's why he was so lucky to have known Kagome, he got to have her cooking and knew he was going to be pleased with what she made.

Now, before Kagome would make hers, she would return to the light boiling pot and pour out another serving for the DaiYoukai who remained to himself out on the balcony. Sesshoumaru had in fact smelled her cooking and he was having a hard time to not look behind him and look like he wanted some food because he was far higher than that. But the miko had suspected he may be hungry, then again, he never did eat much but nonetheless, she would pour out some food for the DaiYoukai. She stepped out onto the balcony and knelt down beside Sesshoumaru, handing him the bowl for him to take.

“I know you don't like human food much but it just didn't seem fair everyone else was eating and you weren't… so…”

Hopefully he got the point!

But he did and he would turn his head slowly to look upon that steaming bowl then slowly drag his ambers upon her face. She gave him those same smiles he had come to like far more than the norm… Kagome watched him closely, wondering what was going on in that mind of his as she knew he was thinking of something. But he'd eventually take that bowl away from her with a nod of his head in silent thanks and she smiled brightly.

Well! Now that he had his food, Kagome returned back inside and went to eat her own bowl. By the time she was just a quarter done, all of the other youkai had long finished and began to give Kagome praise for making something so delicious.

“I never thought human food could be so delicious!”

Asche licked his lips as if he was quite pleased to have Kagome's heartfelt cooking.

“What do you call this…?”

The question heard from the white dragoness and Kagome set down her bowl, readying her words for them all.

“It's called Ramen! And only my wife can make something great as this.”

That's when the dragons blinked slowly upon hearing a title come from the hanyou, staring at Kagome in disbelief, save for Aria, and Asche looked to be heartbroken. Damn! She was already claimed?! But he saw no mark on her flesh… Was Inuyasha lying?

Kagome laughed lightly and a free hand rose, waving it in the air to dismiss such a thought.

“Oh come now Inuyasha, how many times do I have to tell you that I am not your wife?”

She even added in a small smile at the end of her words and continued eating her food but when Asche heard this, he felt so relieved that the hanyou's words were not true!

“Yeah, Inuyasha. You can't just make a boldface claim like that! I think you're still drunk from all that liquor you've had last night.”

Aria's turn to speak and began to laugh at the hanyou, Kagome highly surprised that Aria would even say that. The two of them definitely knew what was going on and Aria sought to back up her miko companion.

As for Inuyasha… He was feeling like one complete idiot right now. Why did Kagome say those words? And why did he feel like his heart had shattered into a million pieces? He loved Kagome, did he not? And he was certain she loved him as well but that girl knew Inuyasha did not love her anymore. Perhaps some of it was still there but he had yet to show any of it during their time here in Egypt.

Only Sesshoumaru was there for her… And she still couldn't believe it.

Inuyasha then realized the two of them were up to something, that being Kagome and Aria. Did they plan this? Why?

Freed then playfully punched the hanyou in his shoulder and that brought the male out of his thoughts.

“You're one brave dog, you know that, Inuyasha?”

Freed grinned at the hanyou and Asche would be keeping his gaze upon Kagome while she ate and for some reason, he could tell something was off. Something he just could not put his finger on. But was she okay?

Sesshoumaru heard everything and knew his brother must be feeling quite defeated right now. It served him right for how he had been treating his `wife'. No, they were no longer `husband and wife'. They were simply acquaintances at this point. So, had the miko chose to move on from his half-brother? If so then why did she wish to not be marked?

Sesshoumaru then stood and would return inside the suite, now drawing near to the miko and Kagome would find Sesshoumaru approach her the moment she stood. He'd hand her back a completely empty bowl once more and smiled softly at the DaiYoukai but that's when Aria would make her grand appearance once more.

“Uuahh! Sesshoumaru! You ate everything? Wow, such a greedy dog you are—“

Her voice was immediately silenced by Sesshoumaru when he growled threateningly at her and she just grinned widely at the DaiYoukai and that had Kagome giggling lightly. The three dragons that sat at the table now got a good look at Inuyasha's half-brother and could tell that he was strong. The air of authority he gave off and that massive amount of youki… Wow. They would not ever dare cross his path.

Sesshoumaru did not bother sparing the rest of them a glance as he'd turn and return to his spot upon the balcony in silent stride.

Well! Now that that was over…

All of her food had been completely devoured by the dragons and the hanyou who decided to remain quiet the entire time after all that earlier. When Kagome mentioned that she was no longer his wife, this upset him, greatly. But he had no reason to be angry, right?! He was reviving Kikyo and this was a stab in the back.

The pile of dishes would be set in that sink and knew she was going to have to clean this up some time later. But not right now, thought. She was a bit tired and needed some rest.

“Kagome!”

Kagome stepped out into the main room and moved to sit down upon that large couch cushion, those eyes now finding Aria who called out to her.

“We're going to go check up on the other maidens and see how they're doing. Wanna come along?”

Kagome shook her head at the black dragoness. “Sorry Aria but I'm really tired now… Might take a nap.”

Brief glance was sent outside and noticed it was late in the afternoon and then her eyes set to the DaiYoukai in the distance. Were they going to do more stuff together?! Kagome saw Aria's face light up like a beacon and followed her gaze outside, noticing that she may be looking at Sesshoumaru. Kagome's head whipped back around and blushed heavily when her eyes returned to the dragoness.

“Ooh… okay, Kagome. Well, have a good rest!”

She grinned wickedly and waved over to the girl, Kisara bowing her head before Kagome as well. “Thank you for the food, Kagome.”

“Oi, Inuyasha. After we check up on the maidens, we're heading out for a run. There are these ruins you should come check out.”

“Yeah! Unless you know... yer scared.”

Asche grinning at the hanyou when he spoke up after Freed and Inuyasha narrowed his eyes at the two dragons.

“Alright, you're on, scaly skin walkers.”

It would definitely do him some good to get out and get some fresh air. He could not stand to be in the same suite with Kagome right now, really. He was still quite hurt and he knew he shouldn't be but it was rather hard to just up and forget it. Who knew love could hurt this much.

Kagome would wave at those dragons as they were off, taking Inuyasha along with them and closed the door shut once those five left the suite. She was thankful that Inuyasha was no longer here and so, she face planted right back onto that enlarged cushioned couch and began to get comfortable. What a day.

She made a mental note to never travel to the land of the dead by herself ever again.

The miko slowly rolled onto her back as her hair fanned out beneath her and slowly opened her eyes to find Sesshoumaru already staring down at her. She eeped quietly in surprise and quickly moved to sit upright within the middle of that large cushion.

That's when she remembered what she told him today. She couldn't forget that! In exchange for saving her life, she would give her body to him for one night. And that night was soon!

Sesshoumaru stared hard at the miko, listening to her heartbeat pick up in speed the longer he stared at her. Lips pulled back and again he'd show off those teeth she'd come to enjoy time and time again, hearing a growl leave him. Then she saw him move and was about to climb ontop of that cushion with her but she stopped him the moment her hands raised up. “N-no..! Not… here…”

She blushed heavily, knowing full well this area was definitely not a good spot to do this. There's a chance someone may hear her! So, she'd slowly crawl off of that cushion and quickly whisk pass Sesshoumaru, now closing those doors and the curtains that led out into the balcony. The room there grew dark but it was dimly lit by one of the few candles within that room. Here she could see those ambers eyes of his glow in the darkness and she shivered in excitement as she could see the hunger in those hues.

Was that even him at the moment? Or was it his beast? Well, she had to stick to her word…

“My room… Is better.”

And without another word, that miko would draw long, careful strides to her room with that DaiYoukai right behind her. Door was then locked behind her once the two were inside and almost immediately she was pulled in close to Sesshoumaru and his lips found hers in one heated kiss.

Kagome gasped out in surprise at the sudden pull to him but she would eventually let herself meld against him once the kiss took its course. How many times had he kissed her now? And she was right, every time they had kissed; it grew into something more and more. Something she could not explain. This fleeting emotion that warmed up her heart, what was it?

Kagome's hands slowly rose and would be placed upon his chest, feeling his warmth through the layer of the fabrics he wore and she was itching to see what was underneath. She had never once seen him bare his naked chest and with her lust creeping right around the corner, it mingled in with her growing curiosity and only seeked to see more of his unblemished skin. Sesshoumaru knew exactly what she wanted to see and so he'd give it. The kiss would be broken momentarily and Kagome's eyes fluttered open to stare up at the DaiYoukai when he pulled away but her breath would hitch in her throat when she saw what he was about to do.

He was removing his haori! Oh god. She'd watch those hands of his move like a hawk, slowly peeling off the layers of fabric he wore over the top half of his athletic frame. His shoulders rolled once kimono loosened up, the material falling down his back and Kagome's eyes could not believe what she saw. His skin, his flesh… It was pristine perfect. Not a single scratch upon this beautifully sculptured body and Kagome could not stop her hand from reaching out to touch his slender form. She blushed heavily when her hand came in contact with his warm skin, feeling those taught muscles beneath his flesh as her hand slid down his chest, feeling the small, tiny dips in his skin when she went over his muscles.

Then her hands traveled lower, Sesshoumaru growling lowly when her feather light touch grazed his skin and stopped the moment she came to his waist. Kagome blushed like mad and pulled her hand away when she realized where she had ended up. He looked at her and could see the shying innocence she gave off and his inner beast was thrilled to have come across this one. A powerful miko who had yet to be claimed and his idiot of a brother failed to see the gem he had passed up.

He was going to have her tonight and make her scream, make her beg and claim all of what she had to offer.

Kagome's eyes drew up to Sesshoumaru's face when his growl was heard even louder within that dimly lit room, Kagome backing up away from him as he approached her once more with that heavy, predatory gaze. She came into contact with that bed and Kagome felt her waist become seized by those warm hands of his, slender fingers gripping tight onto her through the fabric of that silken dress she wore.

He'd dip in and again Kagome was rewarded with kisses and teeth that began to nip and catch flesh between teeth, leaving behind reddened bite marks across her flesh. She moaned lightly when he began to give attention to that area upon her neck that excited her greatly, Sesshoumaru taking note of her oncoming arousal.

Sesshoumaru was having a hard time in keep that beast in check because it was literally roaring at him to fuck the girl already. His more rational side wanted the same but he had to take this in his own pace. Rushing into things may only provide the worst results.

The teeth that began to nip at her traveled even further down south, now marking her flesh as bite marks would litter across her collarbones.

The hands at her waist would slowly slide forwards and an excited gasp would leave Kagome's lips when she felt those long slender fingers grab a hold of her back side and squeeze those cheeks in a near possessive manner, growling lowly against her skin once more. Never had Kagome been so excited for someone, let alone Inuyasha's brother! And that's when she felt it, the burning sensation between her legs that had those pussy lips quivering for his touch. Slick juices began to seep through her core as she stood there before the DaiYoukai she lusted for but soon her legs began to grow weak.

Kagome fell back onto her bed and Sesshoumaru allowed this, watching her flushed face and those parted lips take much needed breaths. His nostrils flared and inhaled her scent and right when he was about to continue his ministrations upon her body, he saw Kagome move as she laid there upon her bed. The miko couldn't stop her now wandering hand as it traveled down south, the DaiYoukai watching her intently as she began to touch herself before him. Kagome could not help herself! Never had she been pushed over the edge, driven mad by her own lust. Her body was hot, burning hot and writhed in complete need for something she could not describe.

But what she had been searching for was something only Sesshoumaru could provide.

“Sesshoumaru, please…! It's…. so hot…”

She tried the best of her ability to explain what was going on with her body but couldn't, not while her mind constantly drew blank every now and then.

Sesshoumaru would waste no time at all as he knelt before the girl upon the edge of the bed and strong hands reached out to grab the back of her knees, pulling her body close to the edge and the girl moaned out again when she felt his nose press up firm against her moist folds that were currently hidden by that undergarment. The dog inhaled her scent deeply into his nostrils, holding back that groan when it filled his lungs.

Kagome felt that fabric that was covering her lower regions be torn from her body, the material only to be tossed behind him and once again she was fully exposed to that male when her legs would be forced apart, her moist, dripping wet cunt clearly visible to the DaiYoukai. And in no time at all, Kagome felt his warm mouth capture her nether lips. Her hips buckled upon contact and her hands would gently grasp his head as he began to feast upon her.

“Aah! Sess…!”

She felt his tongue push forwards and invade her body, slipping pass those lips and delved inside her. His tongue felt so good inside her as evident when she began to roll those hips against his face, the DaiYoukai keeping a firm hold upon her legs as he lapped at her core. She felt his tongue slide in and out of her repeatedly, repeating that same action he had done to her once more during that time in the rest house. Toes curled tight and her breathing became quite erratic as the seconds went and then a cry of pleasure would be heard when one of his hands removed its hold upon thigh, pressing his thumb firm upon that bundle of nerves and began to furiously rub her clit.

This sent waves a pleasure throughout her body, her back arching up high off of that bed and felt her legs quiver like mad. Something was coming and it was known to the DaiYoukai when her voice began to pick up in sound.

Again he would rub that clit whilst simultaneously tongue fucking her, pushing her body to the brink of her orgasm. It did not take long for the girl to reach it because he'd soon feel her legs quiver once more, her hips rolling hard into the DaiYoukai's mouth and whipped her head back to moan out his name in pure ecstasy. He'd feel those inner walls tighten over his muscle from within and then came those slick juices of hers that he found to be quite delicious. She heard him growl out lowly once he got his fill, feeling that tongue lap at her and drag along her moist lips to gather up every bit of her sweet nectar.

Kagome now laid there completely tuckered out, gazing up at the ceiling dreamily while the hold on his head removed soon after she reached her orgasm. Sesshoumaru had set down her legs and soon pulled away, slowly licking his lips and gazed his hungered sights upon the now panting miko.

Now, came the next part… Was she ready?

Kagome knew of this, too. But she was so nervous. Never had she ever had sex before… And Sesshoumaru was the last person she thought she would ever have sex with. Really, him of all people?

Sesshoumaru leaned down to place his hands upon the edge of the bed, Kagome feeling the sudden dip of something being placed upon the bed, her head lifting up slowly to look upon the male before her. She felt the ends of his silver hair brush over the tops of her thighs when he leaned over, his amber hues boring hard into her face as if he was searching for something.

Slowly Kagome would move to sit upright and blushed when she began to move her hands. What was she doing? He'd watch her move to grasp the hem of that silken dress she wore and pulled it up along her body, revealing more of her porcelain flesh to the male and soon she'd pull the material up and over her head, now sitting before him completely naked. He could hear her heartbeat pick up in speed whilst her nervousness returned full force, knowing well this girl knew what was to come next.

But he surprised her when those hands would reach out for him, taking his head in her grasp and pulled him in close so that she could meet him half way for a kiss. And that kiss immediately grew heated within a single second, their tongues coming to play soon after. Kagome could taste herself upon his tongue, mixed in with his own taste and found it to be quite the unusual taste. She would then pull him towards her, guiding him onto the bed with her and soon she would lay upon her back with him right on top of her.

Her breasts would provide quite the cushion between them as they still continued to kiss rather eagerly, their tongues continuing to dance that forbidden dance for dominance.

They way his body felt against hers felt so nice! Her legs would raise and wrap around his waist instinctively but that's when he would decide to remove his hakama. Left hand slid down to his waist and pulled the material downwards, exposing more of his flesh to the cool air of the room. And in moments, Kagome felt something hard press against her inner thigh, the girl gasping out quietly in surprise at what she felt. Was that what she thought it was?! Oh god. It was so big! Could it even fit inside her?!

Sesshoumaru then sensed her heart beat pick up again as she somewhat panicked as they kissed. This had him breaking away from the kiss when he pulled away, now looking down at the miko who gazed back with a slightly confused expression.

What was the matter?

“Are you sure you want to continue this?”

Kagome heard his voice in the small amount of space between them, those eyes searching for an answer upon his face.

Was she ready? This was a huge step for her. She was giving up her virginity to Sesshoumaru, not Inuyasha. But he saved her life! This was far dire than the many times Inuyasha had saved her life. She had died and came back to the living, something Inuyasha couldn't have done. And Inuyasha was no longer the supportive husband she wanted him to be. He was doing things behind her back without telling her, continuing to behave like the child he is…

“Yes, Fluffy-chan…”

Her decision was final.

Again her hands would reach out to grasp his head and pull him in for another kiss and that was enough for Sesshoumaru to know that her decision was indeed true as she began to put her all into that kiss.

Kagome now felt her legs part wide as Sesshoumaru settled between them, his hips moving lower and Kagome almost knew what was coming next. Oh god.

Their kiss would be broken as he began to lower himself to a point where the tip of his hardened erection began to press at her entrance and Kagome held in a breath once she felt this. Her arms immediately went around Sesshoumaru's neck and braced herself when he began to push forwards. Sesshoumaru had to refrain from groaning once her tightness began to envelop his dick, sliding further and further inside the woman and once he was just half-way inside her, a buck of his hips was given and he buried his full length inside the girl.

Kagome cried out in pain the moment he was fully lodged inside her, her tiny nails digging into his back and felt the pain that came forth when he entered inside her body. They were not kidding when she had heard about the first time hurting like a bitch! But she knew Sesshoumaru wouldn't hurt her… Right? Sesshoumaru's teeth gritted tightly and had to refrain from moving, not until the girl was ready.

His beast was pleased, however. The girl was untouched as evident when he broke her hymen. He wanted to rut with her now but it seems his beast was still being controlled by the more rational side of him. Yes, Sesshoumaru was in complete control now and he would not ever let that beast come into play or else the girl may fear him.

Long seconds would pass that felt like an eternity for the both of them but soon Kagome felt the pain ebb away and when he felt her hips roll, that was almost enough to have him groaning out at the girl beneath him. Her tight hold upon his back loosened up but it quickly tightened again when Sesshoumaru began to move. Kagome lips parted and started moan out in pain mixed with pleasure, feeling his engorged cock slip out from her depths but soon bury deep inside her again in one thrust.

Is this what sex felt like if you've lusted after someone for so long?

Her legs quivered again when Sesshoumaru moved once more, now starting a slow pace that had Kagome shivering in excitement beneath him.

And as Sesshoumaru continued this slow pace that was painfully hard for him to continue doing, Kagome's moans beginning to resurface and her head rolled back with eyes closing slowly. It was starting to feel good but her body only craved more! Her head tilted towards his own, bringing her lips to his pointy tipped ear, “Faster, Fluffy-chan, please…”

That pleading voice from the miko was enough to have his beast coming forth, Sesshoumaru losing all control he had on his true self.

Sesshoumaru's hips drew back and slammed hard into the girl beneath him, this having the girl moan out so loud at the sudden movements done, her mind drawing nothing but a lust filled haze. And then his movements quickened, his hips drawing back and repeatedly slammed into the girl's poor and wanting body, the girl writhing in absolute pleasure as his beast so claimed it would earlier today.

He pulled away from her body, moving to sit upright upon his knees over the bed, keeping them connected below when his hands remained firm upon her waist. Kagome's eyes blinked open in confusion, trying to focus her vision upon the DaiYoukai above her but the moment she saw him, she screamed out in absolute bliss when he began to fuck her with such vigor. She would be repeatedly impaled onto his dick as the hold on her waist tightened the miko's cries of pleasure filling up that dimly lit room each time he speared into her depths.

“Sesshoumaru...! Fuck… aah!”

He was doing all the work as this beast was determined to have her lose her mind to the lust he was now bringing her. Her toes curled tight and those hands tried to hold the upper half of her frame up as they were placed upon the bed, her lips spilling nothing but moans, whimpers and his name, over and over and over again, her cheeks becoming quite flushed, too.

She was definitely going to lose her voice after this night.

Then she felt it again, that sudden feel of lava burning within the pit of her stomach, soon enveloping her and burned her body greatly. She'd feel his cock slide along her walls from within after each impalement, the girl feeling that tip hit that very tender spot from within every now and then, too.

“Sess--! I'm…!”

Yes, she was close. Sesshoumaru's beast knew that and he was going to have her cum all over him.

And there it came. Kagome's voice raised another octave and felt her legs spasm, those inner walls clamping down hard on his cock like a vice and head rolled back, screaming out his name when she came for a second time that evening, spilling everything she had over his dick from within. Her arms immediately gave way and could no longer hold herself up anymore, falling onto one elbow. The beast smirked devilishly down at the woman who had reached her orgasm, watching her flushed face stare dreamily up at the ceiling and those eyes glazed over, unable to comprehend what just happened.

And soon this DaiYoukai would reach his own orgasm, bringing her down one last time onto him and Kagome felt his cock twitch from within, her breath hitching when she heard him groan out and felt something hot spill inside her. Is that what she thought it was? There was so much! And Kagome did not move an inch, not until he had finished. She'd remain there for long seconds, almost as if he wanted to make sure every last bit of his potent seed would fill the girl's womb and when he did finish, she was raised up off of him and set down upon that bed with such grace that still surprised her, even now.

She was so exhausted all of a sudden; her voice coarse and definitely needed some water. She felt so weak, unable to move but soon she felt Sesshoumaru's arms wrap around her waist and pull her body close to his, her back pressed firm against his warm chest. Then he'd hear a low growl that rumbled in his throat and throughout his chest, Kagome feeling the vibrations upon her back since she was so close. Was that his beast again? Why did it have so much of an interest in her?

Well, she did not bother pondering anymore about this because she was so tired.

Her eyes drifted close and in minutes, she was out like a light.

Sesshoumaru's beast was quite pleased in taking the girl's everything. He began to nip at the spot where the neck met shoulder when the girl fell asleep but the more rational side to Sesshoumaru stopped himself from placing his mark upon her. That was one of the conditions and he was a man of his word.

And that day drew to a close with the miko sound asleep in the arms of the DaiYoukai.

This will now be her ultimate downfall for the miko as she had stepped into the world of sinful desire.
