[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]
The Truth of a Love that Once Was
Inuyasha awoke to the sounds of birds chirping outside the walls of Sesshomaru’s castle. Collecting his thoughts the hanyou thought about what his brother told him as joy and sadness at the same time welled up in his heart. He felt joy because he knew that he had a brother that loved him as a hanyou and didn’t despise him for having a human mother. The other emotion, sadness was the most overwhelming.
He had hurt Kagome as no other could and now he didn’t know if she would ever forgive him or even believe that he didn’t intend to kill her. Thinking about Kagome he realized that her sweet scent was animating next to him on the silk covered bed he had awoken on. Shifting his gaze from the ceiling to the figure laying next to him he found Kagome sleeping peacefully with one of her hands laying palm up on her pillow and the other clenching the silk covers underneath her form.
Silently as only a demon could do he crept toward Kagome until he was but a small distance from her face. Never had he been this close to Kagome unless it had been when they were arguing, but this time he wanted to get as close to her as he could get, hoping that he could heal the wounds that he had emotionally inflicted on her.
Her lips were luxurious to him as if they were calling to him; restraining himself he reached his hand out and traced her lips with the tip of his fingers being mindful of his sharp claws. Feeling her stir beside him he removed his fingers from her lips and moved a tendril of hair that had fallen over her eyes, covering them from his view.
Kagome’s breathing became quicker and her heart beat sped up as she began waking up from a night of rest next to her puppy as she liked to refer to him. Slowly she opened her eyes and was nearly startled when she saw Inuyasha hovering close enough to her that she could feel his hot breath on her cheek. Meeting his amber eyes she found regret, sadness, and a slight amount of happiness in their depths. Unconsciously her small hand was brought up and laid against Inuyasha’s cheek as her mind slowly processed what had happened the night before.
“Inuyasha...” she said somewhat sadly.
“Kagome..” They watched each other for a long while until Kagome couldn’t stand the silence anymore.
“Is it true about Kikyo casting a spell on you?” she asked hopefully though she knew it would be a while before she really believed his words.
“Hai, Kikyo wanted her soul back but I would never be able to kill you Kagome no matter the promise I kept to Kikyo,” he took her hand into his larger one as in a rare show of emotion he brushed her knuckles with the pad of his thumb.
“I hurt so much,” tears gathered in her eyes as she thought about how she had tried to end her life. She didn’t want to tell Inuyasha that she had tried killing herself due to the heartache he had inflicted upon her.
“I’m sorry..” he turned away from her eyes where the tears had gathered that were glistening in the early morning light coming in from the glass window on the far side of the room.
“Where’s Shippo, Sango, and Miroku?” Changing the topic was the best thing she could think of to do now not that she wanted to forgive Inuyasha but she was still hurting on the inside.
“They should arrive any time now.” As if on cue a soft knock resonated through the room from the other side of the door.
“Come in” Kagome said hoping that it was someone that would help her forget her pain. A young squirrel youkai servant entered the room and bowed low before saying; “Lady Kagome and Prince Inuyasha I have been informed that your companions have arrived and My Lord Sesshomaru requests that you get dressed and come down for breakfast.”
Kagome looked at the youkai who seemed frightened and removing the covers from around her legs she stood up from the bed, going over to the young girl. Taking one of her hands Kagome raised the servant girl up until she was standing straight and looking into her eyes.
“Arigatou but you have no need to bow or address us so formally” Kagome watched as a small blush arose to adorn each of the girls’ cheeks.
“B-but my Lady, Lord Sesshomaru instructed everyone in the castle to call you as such, to disobey would be severe punishment,” the young girl said with her head bowed and eyes downcast.
“Then I think I’ll have a word with Sesshomaru” Kagome marched over to her wardrobe and pulled out a red kimono embroidered in gold threads. On the back was a large white dog that was another symbol of the Inu-Taisho authority, she also took a white and gold obi from out of her dresser drawer. Next she slipped on a pair of white sandals and picking up a finely crafted brush she brushed her hair until it was shimmering in the morning light. With a sweet look in her eyes she marched out of the room with two sets of shocked eyes following her.
Inuyasha knew that look well, it meant trouble. She would put on her sweetest face and get on your good side before she would ask you something and then get terrifyingly angry. Jumping from the bed he raced after Kagome. He nearly collided into her as she stopped at a large door with golden vine designs carved into the wood.
Kagome stopped at Sesshomaru’s study and knocked lightly on the door until she heard his consent for her to enter.
Sesshomaru watched as the woman he had come to love entered his study with Inuyasha trailing behind her with a grin on his face. He was stunned at her beauty as she stalked towards him with a sweet smile on her beautiful face. The kimono she had picked brought out the color of her hair and eyes and it also hugged her frame where he could see all of her curves. She stopped in front of him as he rose from his seat on a pillow at his low desk as he kept his eyes on hers.
“How are you doing today Lord Sesshomaru?” Kagome chirped happily, as her smile grew larger.
“Reasonable and you Lady Kagome?” his eyebrow rose underneath his bangs when she called him by his proper name.
“I’m great, Lord Sesshomaru?” she rose up on her tiptoes until her eyes were level with his as she rested her hands on his shoulders that didn’t adorn his armor.
“Hai?” he said slowly thinking that she was up to something due to her calling him Lord twice when before she refused to say it at all unless it was to irritate him.
“Why do you insist on calling me Lady and ordering your servants to call me Lady, huh!” her voice rose immeasurably as she yelled at him in her most furious way. Sesshomaru was taken aback by her sudden outburst that he was simply speechless. After a minute ticked by slowly and he still hadn’t said anything Kagome became very impatient. She was tapping her foot on the floor with her arms crossed over her chest and she was growling at him like a dog demon would. “Are you going to answer me!”
Finally being able to overcome his shock, “ You are called Lady Kagome because you are a Lady that deserves due respect” he stated in a monotone voice though he was amused that she was growling at him.
“And you would punish your servants if they called me anything else!” her eyes were now a dark blue gray color and her growling became louder also.
“Hai.” Her growls were making his blood rush through his veins as his heart beat sped up and he grew aroused at how she was growling as if she were a female Inu demon.
“Kagome I wouldn’t do that if I were you” Inuyasha said as he watched the display between his brother and Kagome as he came to stand by Kagome’s side.
“I don’t see why you would want to call me Lady, I’m just an ordinary girl that don’t deserve such respect and…” Kagome continued rambling on as she was unaware of the affect she was having on Sesshomaru.
‘I know what will make her stop rambling’ he thought to himself with a dangerous grin on his face. Stalking towards the clueless Miko he put his hands on her shoulders and began pushing her up against the wall until her back was firmly pushed up against it. Putting his hands on either side of the wall beside her head he leaned in and with speed only a demon could have he crushed her lips to his own.
Kagome was startled as she finally realized what was happening. When he had pushed her up against the wall her mind began to process what was happening as her heart beat sped up a million times faster as her arousal spiked at their distance and the lust in Sesshomaru’s eyes.
When his lips were forcefully pressed up against hers she practically melted like an ice cream on a hot summer day. Unconsciously wrapping her arms around his neck she leaned into the kiss as his hands circled her waist, pulling her closer to him until his arousal was pressing up against her. Waves of pleasure were crashing through her being that she didn’t even notice that they now had an audience of all her friends.
Sesshomaru, not being able to get enough of her silently asked for entrance into her sweet hot cavern. His tongue battled with hers, with him being the victor as he got to explore her caverns. He ran his hands, being mindful of his claws up her sides bringing whispery moans of pleasure from the girl he was ravishing. Feeling her need for breathe he pulled away reluctantly and as he was he noticed that they had an audience.
Kagome’s eyes stayed closed until all the waves of pleasure crashing through her being had quieted down while Sesshomaru still held her up by her waist. Opening her eyes slowly she saw the hazy outline of three large figures with two smaller forms on two of their shoulders. Her eyes flew open as she realized who was watching her.
Miroku was staring at them with a lecherous grin on his face, Sango was completely shocked as she stood gaping at the two, Shippo was so shocked that he almost fell off of Miroku’s shoulder. The fire neko, Kirara was just watching with understanding in her eyes, as for Inuyasha his mouth was literally hanging agape and his eyes were rather large.
After Kagome looked at each of her friends and they had all got over their obvious shock she groaned in embarrassment and buried her face in Sesshomaru’s silk clad chest. The blood quickly rushed up to her face as a rose red blush covered her face down to her neck until it was gone from sight beneath her red kimono. She blushed so darkly that one couldn’t tell where her kimono started or her blush ended.
She was thankful that she had Sesshomaru beside her because she knew that he had to be as equally embarrassed as she was. Looking up she was startled to find that he had returned to his usual icy mask where his eyes looked at everyone with boringness.
Finally gaining the will to look on at her friends she turned around towards them and removed herself from Sesshomaru’s chest.
“What’s up guys?”
Inuyasha awoke to the sounds of birds chirping outside the walls of Sesshomaru’s castle.
