InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ A new beginning, a new hope ❯ Discovering Limits (Part 2) ( Chapter 30 )

Hi..

 

Like I said, this is a warning.

 

If you're uncomfortable with unnatural human/animal lemons, this chapter is exactly where you'll find one.

 

And I've managed to post related art to the story. Hurray. Do let me know what you think about them. There's more to come.

 

***************************************

 

After a brief lunch, they found themselves back in the comforts of the bed again. Neither spoke, preferring just to enjoy each other's company in complete stillness. The panoramic view of lush greenery though the window was creating quite a soothing therapeutic effect and both were lost in their individual musings.

 

Rin was playing with Sesshoumaru's silvery strands, holding up a bunch full and running them through her slender fingers, reveling in just how extremely fine and delicate they were. An idea on how to spend the rest of this perfect afternoon instantly emerged in her mind. Swiftly, she brought forth her proposal to the youkai.

 

“Sesshou..ch…maru,” That was close. Even though she really didn't mind another round with him, but she had better plans. She looked up finding that she had caught his attention and he was just waiting for her to continue. “Why don't we go for a walk, I mean, at the meadows? I haven't been there for a long time.”

 

Sesshoumaru nodded. It was a wonderful suggestion, he agreed.

 

It had been five years since the girl visited her favorite spot in the forest. Plus the potentially fine weather outside, it was no doubt one of the best times to go basking under the sun. They would be able to relive some of those treasured moments in the past where they had spent together, just that, well, things had become even more perfect now.

 

“Hmm… Sesshoumaru, can I … ask something?” Rin was stuttering and the demon's curiosity was aroused. His brows lifted slightly.

 

“What is it, my love?” And he caressed the corner of her ears.

 

“Can I… perhaps…. see you in your true form?” Sesshoumaru was greatly taken aback by this unexpected request. “I would really like to see you in your demon form.” She added with a somewhat earnest plea sparkling in her hazel eyes.

 

Why did she bring this up out of the blue? His mind churned.

 

The truth was, deep within him, the demon still retained his reservations of such drastic ventures. Yes, he had complete faith in the depth of their feelings for each other and also the fact that Rin had the absolute right to ask for that now that she was his wife. In an instant, several memories flooded into his mind.

 

He recalled the magnitude of fear he had raised from both demons and humans during past occasions of his transformations. He remembered how all had fled frightfully for their lives and some had even passed out in trepidation.

 

Would this be just as traumatic an experience for Rin as for the rest? He was gravely bothered. Even if she didn't change her mind after that about being with him, would she view him differently from now onward? Would she fear him, afraid even to draw near anymore?

 

Sesshoumaru cringed, his expression turned gloomier. He hated that word. Fear. He hated to think that he would instill such distasteful feelings in the one he treasured most, especially that it would be him that she feared of all things. Their joining was a beginning of the most beautiful experience that could ever happen in his life. It should not be lowered into nothingness like this. It mustn't!!!

 

Rin recorded every bit of his present inner turmoil and leaning in, she rested her head near his heart.

 

“Hey you,” she began with a soft whisper as she massaged his shoulder lightly, immediately pulling him back from his over-run thoughts. “What's the matter? Did I say something wrong?”

 

The demon had calmed down significantly just listening to that personalized sensuality in her voice.

 

“No, I'm alright. It wasn't you…” He admitted honestly and then paused. “I guess… the problem lies with me.” He concluded, “I'm … afraid.”

 

“But… what exactly are you afraid of?” Rin's eyes narrowed with concern, wanting very much to find out more about Sesshoumaru's unease but he had fallen silent once again.

 

In a moment, she guessed it and correctly.

 

“You're afraid that…. I will be frightened of you? Is that it?”

 

Sesshoumaru did not answer but his face had showed it all too clearly.

 

She brought his chin down to her level as she gazed into his eyes lovingly.

 

“I love you… you know that,” Rin smiled when Sesshoumaru nodded, expecting more of what she had to say. “And I mean that. I will love you no matter who you are and what you are or even what you may become in the future. To me, you will always be you.”

 

She finished, suddenly remembering that she had heard him say something similar in the recent past.

 

Good, she mused. Then it would be easier for him to understand how she felt.

 

Sesshoumaru frowned. He was deeply consoled by her last statement. Also, he knew that he wouldn't be able to hide his demon form from her forever. She IS going to be with him for a long long time, till the end to be specific. It was something he hadn't the power to prevent even if he wanted to. Then, he asked himself. Why not now? Wouldn't it be more terrifying if she were to capture his true form for the first time in a possible most undesirable blood-filled battle in the future?

 

“Do you have so little faith in me, in us?” Rin posed his past question back to the demon.

 

At that, something in the youkai lord kind of just clicked and he totally resolved the internal debate within himself.

 

He got up coolly, retaining that ever impassionate stance as he turned to face her.

 

“Are you ready?” He did one last check.

 

“Ever ready.” She passed him an encouraging grin.

 

In an instant, Sesshoumaru's pupils shrank as his irises turned to a sinister bloodied red more feral than she'd ever imagined. His face was lengthening and contorting, his crimson stripes elongating speedily by the second. His hair was flying to every corner as a tremendous surge of evil aura began to form around him. For a moment, Rin's vision was obscured by a gush of jyaki and when it eventually cleared, standing right in front of her was …. a gigantic dog!

 

He was looming above her, filling up almost every bit of space in the chamber. It was pretty obvious that it was a tight squeeze for him in the room because when he shook his head, his now flappy dog ears slapped noisily against the tall ceiling. His fur was mostly white with a sort of grayish overcoat cascading across his body as if they were in flames.

 

Throughout the entire process, Sesshoumaru's eyes did not once leave Rin. He was observing worriedly her every little reaction to this and…. he must admit, he was greatly surprised. The girl was not showing any trace of even coming close of being frightened or shocked. She was just looking on rather tranquilly, much like any average day. He checked her pulse only to find it even and unstirred.

 

Still, Sesshoumaru was at a lost of what he should do next but before anything, he saw that Rin was beckoning him to close the distance. Obligingly, he began to diminish in size. The girl watched intriguingly as he decreased till just about his usual height above her.

 

This time, Rin didn't wish to wait further. With child-like fascination, she hopped out of bed and went forward to where he was standing. She was distracted by how he still retained his crescent even as his demon form and how his stripes just kind of disappear round his jaws. His ears were so cute that her fingers just wandered off by themselves to touch them.

 

As she made her intentions clearer through body language, the demon allowed her easier access by sprawling on the floor. And Rin couldn't be more pleased. She started by stroking his fur on his back, feeling its comparable softness to his hair. Becoming bolder after that, she let her fingers travel down his ears to under his jaws to give him a little tickle. She giggled when Sesshoumaru reacted to that, shaking his head slightly and it spurred a sudden impulse for her to lean in, landing a tender kiss on his forehead where his symbol lay.

 

He was so unbelievably beautiful to her. He always will be, she affirmed internally.

 

Even when he couldn't speak, his eyes, the girl found them focused solely on her, so passionately and filled with an emotion that she's able to now put a word to. Love.

 

With a somewhat cheeky grin, Rin guided him by the snout and sealed him a kiss at the tip of his nose, then bravely at the tip of his mouth.

 

Rin, the demon thought to himself while heaving a contented sigh. She never ceased to amaze him. His worst insecurity had now turned into nothing but pure bliss.

 

“I love you… so much” her voice only as an echo in his ears and she bent over to place several more lavish kisses outlining the wide seams of his jaw.

 

This is my mate, my Rin … my wife, the heart-felt words rang in his head, a smile finally rainbowed across his face.

 

Gleefully, he licked her on the cheeks and Rin chuckled, almost falling back at the degree of the force but Sesshoumaru was too quick to steady her with his snout, pushing her into his furry coat. Rin stretched her hands to wrap around him and for minutes, they silently lingered in the sweet sentiments behind this embrace.

 

Suddenly, Rin felt a slight nuzzle and she looked up, seeing that Sesshoumaru was signaling her to climb on his back.

 

He's taking me on a ride? She was ecstatic, moving forward as Sesshoumaru gave her a nudge up.

 

And then they were off.

 

Rin's hair tussled under the strength of the oncoming breeze as she peered below at all their now miniature house and the forest animals, only appearing as tiny dots. She couldn't even make out what they were. As the wind became stronger, a shiver ran through her and she snuggled into him for warmth.

 

In an instant, Sesshoumaru realized that and he descended gradually. Rin's hazel eyes lit up as she gazed around her. It was the flower meadow.

 

She leapt off and unhurriedly did a ceremonious dash around its perimeters.

 

The rest of the afternoon for the girl was spent flower picking and just lazing under the sun, leaning her back comfortably in Sesshoumaru's cream coat. Getting a little drowsy, she turned her head into his fur, breathing and caressing with her cheeks while her fingers reached down to give him a good rub at his undercoat.

 

All dogs love that. I wonder if he does too. Rin mused, dying to test him out.

 

And she was right. Sesshoumaru rolled over, providing more surface area for her to work on and she delightedly proceeded to run her fingers through, intermittently giving him a good scratch.

 

Another mischievous idea stuck her and she ventured purposefully for that huge furry arousal at the end. As she wrapped her fingers round its diameter kneading it lightly and Sesshoumaru jumped up almost immediately. Rin caught his stern stare though he did not speak and she just waited there feigning an innocent look, not knowing what to do next.

 

Before she knew it, he lurched inward, nuzzling and licking her agitatedly while resting part his weight on her. Between giggles, Rin returned him kisses all round, her hands grazing through his coat at the same time.

 

“Make love to me…” she whispered into his ear with Sesshoumaru appearing rather eager to concur.

 

Just when he was seemingly about to transform back to his human form, a hand stopped him.

 

“No, don't change back.” She added while matching his eyes. “I want you like this… now.”

 

On hearing that unexpected plea, Sesshoumaru backed off self consciously, his expression becoming dim and solemn. Without waiting another minute, he disappeared and in the next moment, he was back to his usual self.

 

“Ikuzo, let's go home.” He intoned blandly, leading her by the hand.

 

*********************************

 

Rin followed behind through the halls and corridors which led to their chamber. After he closed the door, he turned to throw her a rather bemused look.

 

“Why are you asking that of me?” He drew Rin in by her waist closer to him. “You know that it is not possible.”

 

“How do you know that?” Seeing that she was still insistent, Sesshoumaru shook his head, half mockingly.

 

“It has never been done in the past, not even once.” His tone was extremely stern. “And I've said it before. Even demonesses are afraid to be affected by the jyaki.”

 

“Well, I'm not a demoness and I'm not afraid.” She assured him tenderly. “Moreover, even if no one has ever tried it, it doesn't mean it cannot be done.”

 

“No, I won't allow it.” He was serious. “I can't let anything happen to you. You know that.”

 

“Nothing will happen to me.” She answered determinedly but Sesshoumaru's brows crinkled, getting tired of where this was going.

 

“Why, my love, why are you doing this?” He did not comprehend. “We are fine as it is, aren't we?”

 

“Yes, of course we are.” She stroked his hair. “But I do not desire you just because you can take a human form.”

 

Deep inside, Rin kept the real reason why she was attempt the formidable. She felt bad as though she had deprived him of something that was rightfully his, this unique experience passed down for hundreds of generations. She knew he would never take a second mate, so who, then, except herself, can help him in this? She has to succeed. She has to persuade him.

 

Sesshoumaru was silent as if considering and she pressed on.

 

“Just once, we'll try it just this once. You can choose to stop anytime you think I can't cope.” She pleaded earnestly.

 

Actually, Sesshoumaru was trying hard to suppress the natural pleasurable excitement spiraling within him at this extremely erotic suggestion. Every part of him was screaming to take this up. He had yearned for it since the beginning of time, just that the other demonesses had never obliged opening themselves to such risks. But this frail human girl before him, HIS human girl, how could she be so fearless and unshaken?

 

Sesshoumaru placed his palm behind her head, bringing her toward him in a deepened kiss. He gently lowered her onto the bed as their tongues searched for the other.

 

He undressed her, tugging on the tie of her kimono and spreading the folds. He was getting good at this.

 

“Are you sure of this, my love?” He spoke huskily as he agilely kicked off his own clothes.

 

“Yes.” She landed little slick pecks down the sides of this throat. “More than anything.”

 

“Then turn over,” and while Rin was getting on her fours, she felt a huge swirl of aura behind her and the next time she looked back, Sesshoumaru had transformed and he moved in, using one paw to steady her into position.

 

He licked a wet line up her spine and down, hearing her whine in pleasure. He then let it run down to her hanging breasts, wrapping them with the whole length of his tongue and brushing over the tips till they rose to their peaks.

 

Rin couldn't see what was coming and this only brought her sensation to a pinnacle of sensuous suspense. Expectantly, she closed her eyes, just waiting for it to happen, not knowing how it would be like.

 

But the first thing that was thrusted into her dark passage wasn't what she thought it to be. Rin let out a soft shriek.

 

It was Sesshoumaru's tongue. He had pushed it through her entrance, exploring and tasting her inner contours, licking up all the wetness that had pooled and flowing from its source.

 

He knew.

 

She was ready.

 

But should he? The demon found himself hesitating the very last minute.

 

“Sessho-chan…” Rin encouraged. She said it on purpose.

 

Just as she suspected, Sesshoumaru got into some sort of a fit, ramming his full fur-filled shaft into her uncompromisingly.

 

Rin was absolutely in shock, letting out a loud cry.

 

It wasn't that he was too large or too hard. It felt like more of a searing heat burning and scotching every vein in her as it swiftly cruised through her entire body like an inflamed tornado.

 

It was near unbearable but Sesshoumaru did not stop. She didn't want him to either. He was too caught in the moment to even think about consequences.

 

“More… Sessho-chan…. more…” She fought back the blazing intensity within her obstinately.

 

As he pushed harder and faster, she bit into her lips, letting her moans escape only through the crevices between her teeth. Her vision was blurring by the second and she fervently prayed that Sesshoumaru wouldn't sense this. She had only this one chance. She's not going to let him stop unresolved.

 

And suddenly, a loud frenzied howl echoed through the room and she felt as if something had caught fire inside her, rhythmically exploding into her, eating her up rapidly. In the next second that followed, her heart seemed to be swallowed by this magnified intensity. She couldn't breathe, she grabbed her throat and coughed forcefully.

 

By now, Sesshoumaru had pulled out of her, instantly regaining himself and realizing the pain she was experiencing.

 

He caught her just at the moment she collapsed, shaking violently.

 

“Rin… Are you alright? RIN!” He was hysterical.

 

Why hadn't he notice this? Why hadn't he stopped earlier?

 

He brushed away her fringe to feel her forehead. The girl was extremely feverish and her eyes were fluttering as if convulsing continuously out of control.

 

For the first time, Sesshoumaru's mind went completely blank and he was just so so scared.

 

What have I done? Will she….? He was too afraid to venture further in this thought.

 

Then something strange happened.

 

A great burst of radiant light glowed from within the girl and she gradually ceased trembling as her breathing stabilized and her temperature eased off. Soon she was resting into his secure arm as her eyes slowly peeled open.

 

“How are you feeling? Where is it hurting you? Are you in pain? Are you sore?” He wasn't even giving her a chance to answer his long strings of questions.

 

Rin gave a weak grin and shook her head, still unable to find the strength to speak.

 

“I'm sorry. It is all my fault. I make a poor excuse of a husband.” He accused himself bitterly.

 

“Don't say that…” she finally managed a few strangled words. “I'll be fine in a while. Really.”

 

Sesshoumaru shook his head disbelievingly.

 

“There'll never be a next time.” His voice was hushed and rueful.

 

“I'll have to second that. I think the Shikon-tama had saved my life.” She agreed meekly, still not finding the strength to get up to a sitting position. Then looking down at her human form, she added apologetically, “I'm sorry I can never be that kind of mate to you.” She had tried and she had failed. A hint of a tear surfaced from the corner of her eyes.

 

Sesshoumaru dispersed the drop of fluid from her cheek carefully, not wanting to cause her more discomfort.

 

“I've no need for that.” He matched her eyes lovingly. “I already have you.”

 

***********************

Coming up next…

 

Rin found out about Sota's feeling for her. What was she going to do?

 

Sesshoumaru and the rest discovered that Rin wasn't herself lately and her behaviors were not normal. What's wrong with her?
