Chapter 4: The Meeting

Sesshomaru had finally come to terms with his feelings. He didn't necessarily love the human, but it was pretty damn close. She was extremely attractive, for a human of course, had immense intellect, and sparked his imagination and curiosity. No one, in his entire life, was able to do that. He found himself wanting to solve this puzzle that he had made her out to be. He wanted to be a part of her life, and wanted her to be around him.

Her scent enticed him to follow her, and he finally found her in a river, bathing. She wasn't indecent because she had her back turned toward him. He started to creep forward, but stopped when she started getting out of the water.

It was like an ultimate fantasy. Her pink bubblegum lips were slightly parted, and she looked around to make sure that no one was getting a free show. Little did she know that Sesshomaru was right behind the bushes, and was most definitely enjoying it. The moisture from the stream rolled down her cheek, across her slender neck, in between her ample breasts, then down her legs. She turned to her right and bent down to get her towel. Sesshomaru just about lost it, then.

Her smooth rounded butt stuck up in the air, and he got a nice view of the back of her milky white, slender, and long legs. He clenched his fists, trying to fight his youkai urge to pounce on her right then and there. Taking in slow and shallow breaths, he steadying himself, and waited while she dried herself off. An innocent act, but she didn't know what it was doing to him.

Once she was done, she slipped into what looked like Sango's taijiya black, form-fitting, body-suit, except it was trimmed in blue, and she didn't have any armor except for the shin and elbow plates. Sesshomaru could see the clear definition of her breasts and skinny waist, her slightly curvy hips, and well-defined legs. She was gorgeous. How could Inuyasha throw something this…perfect away? The miko bitch he was probably fucking right now was a dead soul-stealer. How repulsive…and the hanyou was actually doing her.

He looked on as she pulled her hair into a high ponytail, strapped on some matching boots, and grabbed her weapons: a small dagger that fit inside her belt, and her trademark bow and arrows. She was ready to go, however, when she turned to walk away from the stream, a seemingly brick wall stopped her dead in her tracks. She looked up at none other than the annoyed Taiyoukai of the West.

Kagome audibly gasped. She was in some deep shit. As she started to back away, putting her hands up to show that she wouldn't hurt him, he advanced on her. Nose to nose in a single blink of an eye, he snaked his arm around her waist, and kicked the back of her knees to make her fall to the ground. Once he had her subdued, he sat down in front of her.

"Miko, you will answer some of my questions now." He stated in a bored tone. It was making the hairs on the back of Kagome's neck stand on end. One wrong move and she would be missing a limb.

She gulped. "Okay…what do you want to know?" She nervously answered.

"Why did you run off? You should not be alone." Sesshomaru waited for an answer.

"I...I wanted to find Naraku on my own…and redeem myself…I…I wanted to show Inuyasha that I'm not just some reincarnation. I can do this." She made to stand up, but Sesshomaru promptly put his hands on her shoulders, and sat her back down.

"What the hell is your problem!?" screamed Kagome. This was reckless abandonment. She would surely die.

"First of all, miko, you will not use that tone with me. You very well know that I am your superior, in every way, shape, and form. Second of all, I will be answering the questions here. Therefore, I do not have a problem, but if you continue to disrespect me, you will certainly have a big problem on your hands, little miko." Sesshomaru quickly retaliated, leaving a stunned Kagome.

She snapped out of her daze, and quickly remembered her debt to the taiyoukai. "Uh, Sesshomaru? I was wondering if I could heal your arm now. I am in debt to you."

"There is no need, mi-" Sesshomaru was again interrupted for the `n'th time.

Kagome quickly made her way over to his arm and held the stub in her hand through the fabric of his outer haori. Concentrating, beads of sweat forming over her furrowed brow, she began to glow a light pink, and the said stub was glowing a light blue. He was surprised. He felt so…elated. Just what exactly was this miko doing to him?

"Just relax, Sesshomaru. I haven't done this before, but I swear to you that I will not hurt you." Kagome tried to soothe him as he tense, wary of her ministrations, but worried she was trying to purify him.

With a burst of light and silence that seemed to last forever, he flexed the newly formed muscle and was in awe of the perfection. No deformities or mutations. He fingered the two perfect purple stripes that graced his wrists, and averted his gaze to the small woman sitting next to him. Her eyes were glazed, and her breathing seemed labored. Instantly concerned about the woman that seemed to captivate his attention 24/7 now, he knelt over her, and gently laid her down on her back.

"Miko, what ails you?" He felt her forehead, and was surprised at how warm it was. He quickly picked her up and she groaned. Something was wrong.

Making his way back to the stream, he quickly undressed her and tried his best to keep his attention focused on her health. He dunked her under the ice cold water, holding her nose for her, and making sure that she hadn't sucked in any of the water. Her temperature was going down fast, so the immediate threat was gone.

Getting out of the water, he opened his haori, and wrapped her up in it (while he was still wearing it) in order to offer her some body heat so that she wouldn't become hypothermic. He was surprised when she clutched at his inner haori, almost for dear life, and buried her head in his chest. He was slightly pleased, and a warm feeling went through his body. She would not be leaving, he decided, after he had his fill and satisfied his curiosity. He hoped that she would agree to stay as well.

~~Four days later~~

Kagome squinted against the morning sun. "Ugh…" She felt like crap…that had been stepped in several times.

Trying to set up, her body protested profusely, and she was forced to lie back down. "Dammit…" Getting used to the bright light that shone through the window, she observed her surroundings.

Where in the hell was she? Hyperventilating, the room started to spin and she screamed, the high-pitched noise bouncing off the walls and hallways.

The shriek pierced straight through his eardrums, and Sesshomaru was forced to cover his ears as he was about to enter the shoji doors that led to the special room he had put her in. He wasn't surprised by her reaction, but was surprised that she had recovered so quickly. Steeling himself for anymore shrieks that would come, he lifted his hand to slide the door open. However, as soon as he had opened the door a crack, he was assaulted with the scent of tears. Being overly curious as to what she was crying about, he stayed outside the door and pressed his ear against the screen.

"I'm so sorry, Inuyasha…I'm so sorry…" Kagome apologized profusely to the air, regretting ever leaving him. She was probably in some harem now…she was the real whore. She wondered if she had been raped, and quickly pressed her fingers into the inside of her thighs. Nope, nothing. She let out a relieved sigh. However, she was not off the hook yet, a low growl made her direct her attention to a very pissed youkai.

"Sessho-" When he embedded his fist into her headboard, mere inches from her head, she shut up entirely. She had even seen him move toward her. Again, she started to hyperventilate. What had she done? Did she talk in her sleep? …Oh no…was she drunk…did she…do anything? What had happened?!

"You bitch. You'll never forget about him, will you!?" Sesshomaru yelled straight at her face. His eyes started to tint red. What was wrong with her thinking about Inuyasha? She still loved him, she deduced. Now she was pinned to the bed by a very pissed off Sesshomaru.

"I'll teach you how to behave while you are here, bitch."

OOOOH! I bet you all are pissed at me!! Teehee!! ^^ I had to leave it at a cliffy…it was an opportune moment! I hope you guys liked this chappy. Love you guys!
