[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]
Seven at night, Kurama's POV-
I stood outside dressed in a pair of loose black jeans, and a white button up shirt. I heard the clicking of heels and I turned to see Kagome dressed in a black spaghetti strap dress that ended at mid-thigh, and a pair of black heels.
I grinned as she came closer. I wrapped my arms around her waist and pulled her to me, nuzzling my head into her neck and silky black hair.
"You look lovely tonight, my little vixen." I whispered into her neck. I smirked as she shivered. "Shall we?" I questioned. With a slight blush, she nodded and took my arm. Together we walked to my car.
-No ones POV at the restaurant-
"Reservations for two, under Suichi Minamino." The waitress nodded and smiled at him.
"Right this was sir…" she drawled out. Kurama looked at her with a slightly disgusted look but nodded respectfully. He smirked as he realized the jealous look Kagome wore on her face.
Kurama squeezed her hand reassuringly. Kagome looked up at him sweetly, a pink blush settled on her cheeks.
Kagome and Kurama were seated in a secluded booth and were each handed a menu.
"Can I get you anything to drink?" the waitress asked, her brown eyes glued to Kurama's body. Kagome's anger flared, but she remained calm. Kurama smiled as politely as he could.
-Kurama's POV-
"Could you bring us some wine please?" the waitress nodded eagerly and walked off. I turned and smiled at Kagome, who's glare was currently fixed on the waitress whose eyes refused to quit roaming.
"Kagome, please calm down. You have to understand, that everywhere I go, this happens: but you are the only one I want." I explained to her. Kagome's eyes then fixed on me. She breathed in deeply before calming down.
The waitress returned and set the wine bottle down with two glasses.
"Here you are sir, can I take your orders?" Kagome and I both ordered and the waitress collected our menus. She turned to me one last time,
"Are you sure there isn't anything else you wanted?" she said in an obviously flirty manor. Before I could answer Kagome snapped.
"Miss, I suggest you quit falling all over my boy friend, or im going to have a talk with your manager. He's mine! Back Off!" I smirked at her statement. Flustered, the waitress got up and walked off.
I looked back at Kagome, who looked more than pleased with herself. I felt Youko surface.
"Well, a little feisty aren't we? Don't worry, that just makes things more exciting later." he said giving her a little wink. Kagome immediately blushed.
"I'm going to go to the restroom, I'll be right back."
-Kagome's POV-
I walked to the bathroom and breathed out. 'God, Kurama, what are you doing to me. I don't know if its because of my new demon side or what but gosh, I've never acted like that before.' I thought quietly to myself. I blushed realizing what I said.
"Kill me now," I muttered to myself.
"Gladly, however, Master Loriden wants you alive and uninjured. Ahh, such a pity." I whirled around in time to dodge a hit aimed to knock me out. I ducked as she swung again, feeling my demon side come out, and whirled my legs around to kick her in the stomach. She slammed against the wall and crumpled to the ground. I walked over, wrapped my claws around her neck, and lifted her into the air.
"Who are you and why does your, 'master' want me?" I demanded coldly.
"My slave name is Myldrid, but you my lady, may call me Aikko. Master Loriden wants you to be his queen. he wants your power and that of the jewel," she paused and looked around,
"He is my master and his command I must obey. I am sorry. Hopefully you will defeat him. And hopefully one day, I will be free like you…" she whispered as she faded into the shadows of the bathroom. I transformed into my human form and returned to the table: utterly confused and slightly pissed off.
Kurama's POV~
After Kagome left, a new waiter passed by our table and dropped off our food. I smiled politely & waited for Kagome's arrival.
After 5 minutes of waiting she finally emerged from the bathroom looking frazzled. I frowned, but I couldn't help but notice how adorable she looked when she was angry.
"What's wrong?" I asked as she sat down. She looked at me in confusion, and opened her mouth to reply, but closed it again. She lifted her hands to her forehead and began to groan in frustration.
"I don't actually know; I'm confused" she admitted and I couldn't help but chuckle at her lost expression.
"I was in the bathroom and a fox youkai came up to attack me, she failed, but still. Then she said her slave name was… Myldrid, but I could call her Aikko. Then she strayed off about some guy named Loriden who wanted me and the jewel; It just doesn't make sense, I mean-" She was suddenly cut off by a man who wore a black tuxedo that looked like it was made of the finest silks.
"I'm looking for a Ms. Higurashi?" he asked his eyes going back and forth across the room. I felt jealous as her attention went from me to the man.
"I am Ms. Higurashi." She said quietly. The Mans eyes focused on her as did the eyes of several others in the restaurant.
Kagome's POV~
The man strolled across the room, directly to our table before he bowed deeply and with a handsome chuckle, he kissed my hand. He gestured to the chair in question. I nodded reluctantly and the man sat himself down.
"My dear allow me to introduce my self, My name is Aki, I am an acquaintance of your father and of your friend Lord Sheshomaru." I angrily rose from my seat and faced the man.
" I don't care who you are or who you know, but be careful who you talk about, my father is dead." I looked at Kurama as he stood from his seat as well and I turned to walk away.
"You believe that do you? the man asked with a disgruntled look on his face. I stopped and turned to face the man, with Kurama at my side.
"Is that what she told you all those years ago?" He looked at his hand where a silver ring with a small blue sapphire sat .
"My dear, you'll come to find that in life, things are not always what they appear." He finished sadly. I looked at his face and into his eyes; I looked at his hands and at his ring. 'that ring, I've seen it before in some album of mom's-' and suddenly, it hit me: this man, with stunningly blue eyes and long black hair was my father.
"No. She said you were dead, gone forever! You left us? That's the truth? She was right, you are an evil man!" I yelled . He snarled viciously,
" I am no such thing! I left because I had to, I left to save your lives, but it wasn't enough: he knows, and now you need my help. Your mother, I love her, but she has lied to you: I am not a monster. If it was up to me, I wouldn't have left. If it was up to me, I would have come back sooner. Please trust me, you know as well as I do not to read a book by its cover. Please, give me a chance."
Stunned I looked into those familiar, and still strange, blue eyes, I grabbed his out stretched hand and started to speak.
"Father, you have a lot of explaining to do, not just to me, but to mom and Souta as well."
Author's POV
Aki smiled and with delight, he pulled Kagome into his embrace for the first time in such a long time; and finally he was home.
"So," Aki began, "Who is this charming young man?" Immediately, Kagome's face turned a bright shade of pink as she looked into Kurama's green eyes that held a curiosity like no other.
