InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Caught Between Lust and Love ❯ Soon ( Chapter 2 )

Lady Kaede and Sango hovered over the unconscious Kagome in Lady Kaede's hut, while Inuyasha paced in front of Miroku. Inuyasha, completely filled with rage, clinched his claws into his palms causing blood to drip from his fists. Miroku just sat and shook his head, "Inuyasha, such anger will not help the situation. You have no idea what happened yet, and you should wait for Kagome to awaken." The monk advised. Inuyasha stopped and glared at Miroku, his eyes widening, flecks of red emerging from the amber.

"When I want your council, I will ask for it!" Inuyasha scoffed as he crossed the room to look at Kagome. As she lie still, Inuyasha could not help but find himself in awe of her angelic beauty-so helpless, she needed him.

"Inuyasha, ye should be calm and meditate with Miroku. Sango and I will attend to Kagome." Lady Kaede said, pushing Inuyasha away from Kagome. "Ye will be the first to know of any change."

"Fine, old hag, but you better sure as hell tell me when she wakes up! I wanna know what the fuck happened!" Inuyasha snapped. Kaede continued to push him all the way out of the hut, shewing Miroku out next. They did not stray far, sitting down next to the wooden steps. Inuyasha tilted his head downward and placed his hands into his sleeves, crossing his arms underneath his kimono. Miroku sat a foot or two away, in a similar style, leaning his staff against his chest.

"Lady Kaede, what is wrong with Kagome? Why won't she wake up? I can detect no wounds or any sign of poison. So, why is she still asleep?" Sango asked, concerned for Kagome.

"I am uncertain. I believe that something is troubling her mind, when she reconciles with it she will awaken." Lady Kaede answered. Sango pressed a damp cloth on Kagome's face, attempting to cool her flushed face. Kagome's eyes moved under her eyelids as her body twitched slightly. "The child is dreaming, I wonder what of?" Lady Kaede pondered.

Kagome sat alone in a small room, lit only with candles. She sat and silently took in her surroundings, mesh black fabric hung from the ceiling creating a canopy around the room, the floor was made of white marble and covered with scattered pillows made from silk. As she looked around the room her eyes drifted back to her body, she looked down at chest and legs to find that she was no longer wearing her green and white school uniform. Instead she was covered in a long silk nightgown, the red garment revealed her legs and chest in much detail with slits down the sides and a plunging neckline.

A gush of chilling wind filled the room, stirring the canopy and causing the candles to flicker. Kagome stood slowly, her eyes attempting to locate where the winds was coming from. Smoke filled the room as a shadow of a figure appeared, her heart speed up, she new exactly who it was.

Sesshomaru walked over to her and extended his hand to her. Kagome put her hand in his, her mind shocked by her bodies response, she knew she should run and at least try to escape, but her body did not. Sesshomaru lifted her hand to his lips and gently kissed it. Kagome's body trembled as he pulled her closer, she was now flesh against him, her head nestled in his chest with his arms around her. He leaned down and kissed her ear lightly then began to whisper, "I told you that you would be able to think of nothing but me, soon you will desire me as much as I do you. Soon, you will love me." Sesshomaru's words echoed in her mind as his hands ventured across her body. His hands slid under the straps of her nightgown, brushing them off her shoulders with ease, the silky garment fell to the floor. Sesshomaru stepped back and gazed at her body, her skin was flawless and radiantly pale, he desired nothing more than to lick at the milky sweetness of it. Kagome still stood, thinking of Sesshomaru's words, 'love him, but I already love someone else...' She did not even think of her nudity as her eyes met Sesshomaru's. She opened her mouth and whispered, "My body does want you, but my heart already belongs to another."

"INUYASHA, MIROKU! KAGOME IS AWAKE!" Sango yelled.

Inuyasha leaped up, practically pushing Miroku to the ground, wanting to be the first to see Kagome. Kagome sat with her shoulders hunched forward, her eyes seemed dim with dark circles encasing them. She rose her head up slightly to look at Inuyasha, however, guilt filled her mind as she quickly turned away. "Kagome, what's wrong? What happened in the cave with Sesshomaru?" Miroku inquired, Inuyasha just stared at Kagome. Kagome swallowed heavily feeling as though she had betrayed her companions.

"I, ah, well..." She stumbled trying to find where to begin. "You see, I woke up in this cave. I couldn't move my body at first, Sesshomaru was..." She trailed off again, her heart fluttering at the thought of Sesshomaru's kisses down her bare neck. She felt herself grow warm and wet between her thighs, uncontrollably aroused by her memories. Inuyasha caught the scent of her womanhood and it made his blood boil.

"Did he touch you?" Inuyasha slowly hissed. Kagome didn't answer immediately as she was thinking of how to put it. "Answer me Kagome, did...he...fucking...touch you!?" His voice became more stern. Kagome was taken back by Inuyasha's hostility, she didn't do anything wrong, she told Sesshomaru to stop before anything regrettable happened. She shoot a cold glare at Inuyasha and pushed herself of the bed.

"I don't have to tell you anything! I'm fine now and we can keep going on our quest for jewel shards...that's all you really care about anyway!" Kagome scoffed walking past Inuyasha. Feeling his hand reach to grab her arm, Kagome quickly added, "SIT!" before he could prevent her escape from the situation. Inuyasha's neck slammed to the ground, causing the hut to shake slight, the rest of his body followed behind with a subtle thud noise. Sango and Miroku gave each other a confused look before they stepped over Inuyasha to follow Kagome.

"Why that dumb bitch!" Inuyasha snarled pushing himself off Lady Kaede's floor as the spell of the prayer beads wore off. Kaede remained in the tent watching Sango and Miroku case after Kagome in the distance.

"Perhaps, if ye were more kind towards Kagome she would, in turn, be more kind to ye..." Kaede advised.

"Feh, I was just trying to get her to tell me what the hell happened!" Inuyasha scoffed.

"Ye should work on your delivery of such questions." Kaede finished walking out of her hut towards her herb garden. Inuyasha didn't stop to counter her, using his youkai speed he quickly ran towards Sango, Miroku and Kagome.

"I'm going home now!" Kagome yelled back to Sango and Miroku. "I'll be back later!" she said as she reached the Bone Eater's well. However, before she could jump in Inuyasha leaped up and birchen himself on top of the well.

"You are not going anywhere until you tell me what happened with Sesshomaru!" He ordered. Kagome just scowled at him and whispered under her breath, "not yet." before she yelled "NOW SIT BOY!" Inuyasha fell of the well and onto the ground as Kagome jumped down the well and back to her own era.
