Opportunities

“So, have you figured out how you intend to go about getting Ayame's cooperation?” Kouga asked from the top of a boulder where he was keeping track of Ayame and the children.

 

There really wasn't much else to do until tomorrow's hunt. Food was running low and Sesshoumaru had received an invite. Though being unable to shred something to bits wasn't all that attractive, Sesshoumaru had agreed to go along. He wasn't certain that he would be able to restrain himself from just taking care of the food supply himself, but apparently, unless Kouga was doing the job alone, the wolves deemed the hunt as something of a social affair. Perhaps this would be a bonding experience with Kouga. Nevertheless, Sesshoumaru wasn't all that enthused. For centuries he had been a loner and really didn't find change all that appealing. However, he would gladly do it for Kouga. It was something new to assimilate.

 

“She must be courted, yet it is a difficult undertaking as she is not a willing participant,” Sesshoumaru answered as the wheels of his mind spun in his oh so Machiavellian fashion.

 

“I don't recall being all that willing either!” Kouga retorted.

 

“Ah, then why did you remove the miko's arrow from my arm? The desire was there, but left unacknowledged. There is no seed of desire within Ayame.”

 

“Well, whatever. If we don't do something about Ayame, the pack is going to get suspicious. They'll think you are trying to steal too much authority.”

 

“Hn.”

 

Kouga furrowed his brow in thought. His right leg was propped up on the boulder, his elbow sitting on his knee and his chin resting on his right hand. He looked every bit the studious scholar. Sesshoumaru overthrew Kouga's concentration when he suddenly stood, his nostrils flaring as he scented the area. Whatever he was searching out was downwind of Ayame and the children…including his precious Rin. Kouga growled in recognition of the scent of a large beast making its way toward them. There was something odd about it, foreign.

 

Suddenly moving away, Sesshoumaru began strolling in the direction of the scent.

 

“Per our agreement, the beast is mine,” Sesshoumaru stated with just a hint of the adrenaline rush that came to the predator within when a battle was imminent. As a new protector, this was the perfect opportunity to exercise his power, something that Kouga could not deny him. It was very fortuitous that Ayame and the children were present. Otherwise, he may have invited Kouga for some of the fun.

 

“Just howl if you need help,” Kouga chuckled, knowing full well that there was no living thing that could stand against his mate.

 

“The day that I need your assistance is the day that you will take on the responsibility of raising Rin,” Sesshoumaru replied cryptically as he continued strolling at a leisurely pace.

 

“Hey! You think that thing is going to wait for your prissy ass to show up!?” Kouga called, not at all happy that Sesshoumaru seemed to be in no hurry to dispatch the enemy.

 

Sesshoumaru ignored the wolf's jab and continued on his way, knowing perfectly well why he was taking his time, something that Kouga as well as Ayame would find out soon enough.

 

Kouga rolled his eyes. `That mutt might be fast and lethal, but I'm not taking any chances.'

 

With that thought in mind, Kouga took off toward Ayame and the children, intent on being the last line of defense.

 

Out of the corner of her eye, Ayame noticed a fluttering movement of white and turned to see Sesshoumaru headed in a direction that should have held no particular interest. When she turned, Kouga was approaching at break neck speed.

 

“What's going on, Kouga?” she asked, surprised that either male was in the vicinity of a group of rambunctious, loud and dirty children who were about to make their way to the river.

 

“Hey, kids. Have a seat. You might just get to see a show,” Kouga grinned and pointed toward Sesshoumaru.

 

Of course, the alpha male was never to be disobeyed and all the children quietly followed his orders, even Rin.

 

“You stand on that side of the kids, I'll take this one,” Kouga instructed Ayame. “If this thing gets past Sesshoumaru, we're going to have to take it on. I highly doubt that we'll be needed though,” Kouga said with a hint of seriousness.

 

“What thing, Kouga? What's up?”

 

Now Ayame was getting a bit nervous and decided that it was time to pull some of her deadly sharp leaves from her hair; something that sometimes made Kouga wonder if she didn't have a bit of sprite blood in her. Helpless Ayame was not, but a surprise attack could have dire consequences. On most days, she could have tood her ground against Kouga were it not for the jewel shards in his legs. However, when children were involved, the protective side of her went into high gear and no one could stand in her way. He noticed that her initial nervousness had given way to anger as though she dared anything to get past her.

 

`An excellent lupa indeed.'

 

Sesshoumaru was quite some distance ahead of the group before he simply stopped and waited. He didn't have long to wait. A big, ugly beast resembling a sharp-toothed, blue, pillbox bug lumbered through the tree line, felling many trees in its wake. Sesshoumaru cocked his eyebrow at this new version of one of Naraku's minions. It definitely was a bug enhanced by a contaminated shard of the Shikon jewel. It stopped just at the edge of the field, its many legs supporting it as it swayed back and forth then turned its attention directly toward Kouga.

 

`Ah, yes, the jewel shards in Kouga's legs has attracted the beast,' Sesshoumaru thought to himself as he tried to determine the creatures weaknesses.

 

The plates of the outer shell left the soft underside exposed and its many legs appeared to be made of a weaker substance than the shell. As the creature attempted to trample over Sesshoumaru in its desire to reach Kouga, Sesshoumaru stretched out his arm, a green band of light appearing. With two fingers and a thumb outstretched and the rest of his hand fisted, Sesshoumaru charged the beast, striking the underside and taking out dozens of its spindly legs. The creature shrieked, if that's what one could call it.

 

Naraku's choice of beasts left Sesshoumaru wondering at the half-breed's intelligence. However, he soon found out. Poison sprayed from beneath its small head just before it curled up into a ball and began rolling toward Kouga. Sesshoumaru easily sidestepped the poison, not that it would have hurt him anyway. Well, that left Sesshoumaru with only one option, dust the bastard with his sword, Tokijin. This was going to be all too easy. Such a disappointment. Quicker than lightening, Sesshoumaru was back in front of the rolling beast with his sword drawn and set horizontally in front of his chest.

 

“Dragon Strike!” boomed across the clearing as a ball of bluish white energy flew forward from the sword and demolished the creature, along with quite a few yards of forest. Just for good measure, Sesshoumaru picked out the largest chunk left, raised his hand and sent out a powerful blast of acidic poison, instantly dissolving it.

 

The show was over. So much for having something truly entertaining with which to occupy himself. Sesshoumaru sighed. At least Ayame had a demonstration of his abilities, his entire purpose in letting the creature come so close in the first place. Female youkai could never resist a strong and powerful male, especially when he was providing protection for the young. Of course, he was instantly proven correct when he turned around to see Ayame with her jaw dropped and eyes wide. Though the children were rushing toward him, Ayame stood rooted to her spot, stunned he supposed. Sesshoumaru couldn't help the small smirk, mirrored by Kouga when the wolf snuck a glance at his lupa.

 

`Well done, my mate,' Kouga thought to himself. `But that was just convenient. We still have to come up with something that'll get her on his side and the dog has no idea where to even start with a female, especially one like Ayame. Her being more of a warrior…that is a tough one.' It hadn't occurred to him that just because Ayame was a warrior, it didn't mean that she had lost all of her female traits.

 

As Sesshoumaru strolled toward the group, donning his triumphant `you are mere insects' facade, the children took off in his direction. He cringed at the thought of their filthy hands all over him. Sure. He could destroy a monstrous youkai without a bit of fallout. But children? Fortunately for him, they were well trained in respecting their elders and came to a screeching halt only two feet away, all jabbering about how awesome and powerful he was.

 

Rin simply stood at the back of the pack, beaming up at her Lord and adopted father, who kindly reciprocated with a slight softening of his eyes while he gazed on her. She had come to mean so much to him, even though he was not one for blatant shows of affection around anyone other than Kouga. That would need to change, at least temporarily. After a quick glance up at Ayame, he knew what he had to do.

 

“Rin, come,” he said, extending his arm in offering.

 

Rin's eyes grew as wide as saucers, not that she didn't already have those huge innocent eyes that drew everyone to her, but she quickly obeyed and picked her way through the other children. He had never offered to hold her hand. It was a great honor, a ground breaking event. What shocked and amazed her most was that when she reached out to take Sesshoumaru's hand, he bent down and scooped her up.

 

“Rin needs to bathe. Come,” he spoke, staring down at Ayame and waiting for a response. Contrary to his usual behavior of simply turning to walk away, he stood there in deference to Ayame's decision. Being a bit commanding would save him some amount of dignity. However, if he would woo her, he would need to become practiced in catering to her version of acceptable behavior for a pack member. Perhaps he could use his interactions with Kouga as a guide. Having made the decision to do just that, he stood and waited patiently for her response. He was not one to fail on following through once a plan was formed, Kouga being a perfect example.

 

“O...okay. Just let me gather the others and...” she started to say, but was gently cut off by Kouga. Understanding what Sesshoumaru had planned, Kouga interrupted.

 

“I'll take the whelps down to the river to get washed up. You go on ahead,” Kouga said, making shooing motions with his hands then turning and calling Hakkaku and Ginta. He'd be damned if he took on this bunch alone.

 

Ayame glanced back and forth between the two, confused as to why she couldn't just take Rin down to the river with the others. Besides, being alone with the intimidating youkai was not her idea of an enjoyable bath with the children.

 

She wasn't the only one having a bit of difficulty. Holding a dirty child was not on the top of Sesshoumaru's list of priorities and, though he had a deep well of patience, it was not infinite. Besides, Rin smelled heavily of wolves, something that he was not yet fond of.

 

“Woman, are you going to stand there or assist me in bathing Rin?”

 

“Oh! Coming!” she said, but before it was completely out of her mouth, Sesshoumaru had already turned and began strolling toward the den.

 

He still had his pride to consider and would back down only so much.

 

`Did Sesshoumaru always bathe Rin? It's hard to imagine him taking on any parental responsibilities. Did his vassal bathe her?' The thought of Jakken taking any part in Rin's more personal activities nearly made Ayame's stomach lurch. `She can bathe herself, but someone had to stand watch if she was to be kept safe. Yuck.'

 

Ayame was not privy to any information concerning these small details of Rin's life. However, from the things Rin spoke of, Sesshoumaru had pretty much left her to her own devices, only interfering when she was in danger. Nevertheless, she knew that he had to care for Rin on some level. Everyone was under threat should Rin be harmed, and the girl was dressed in a high quality kimono, at least for an orphan. The girl even had a spare in her small pack of meager belongings. Rin had told her that Sesshoumaru had sent Jakken to obtain them as opposed to allowing her to steal it as she had food.

 

Also, he had to know that Rin had kept a small lock of his hair that had been clipped off in battle. Why hadn't he forced her to discard it? Surely, he would have seen the loss of any of that pretty mane as an insult. Then there was the run in with Jakken and Rin at the river. Hakkaku and Ginta had the shit scared out of them when Sesshoumaru stepped into the scene. It seemed to her that he appeared to be guarding Rin without his ward's awareness. What else was Ayame not aware of? What other secrets did Sesshoumaru have?

 

`Maybe he is more than he seems,' Ayame thought as she gazed at Rin's little legs that swung back and forth over Sesshoumaru's arm.

 

Rin might have been filthy, but Sesshoumaru realized he had missed her company while away. He was accustomed to her chatter and of Jakken's unsuccessful attempts at provoking her. From what Sesshoumaru could tell, Jakken simply enjoyed interacting with her or he wouldn't be so damned annoying with his constant chastisement of the girl. If only Jakken could see him now, he would be spluttering and squawking about Sesshoumaru carrying a filthy human. Sesshoumaru wasn't certain what this strange feeling welling in his chest was and it was not all that pleasant. Nevertheless, he did know what would fix it. It was time to take Rin and Jakken on a patrol of his lands. That much was certain.

 

If there was anything that Sesshoumaru was good at, other than being lethal, it was denying his feelings. He missed their usual routine, if one could call it that. He missed relaxing under the spreading branches of a sakura tree while she sang her little songs and danced her silly little dances while Jakken taunted her in seeming disdain.

 

Someone might believe that the solitary Sesshoumaru had led a very dull life. That person would be so very wrong. Even before Rin, he had taken great pleasure in occasionally tracking Inuyasha just to observe what idiocy his brother was displaying or for challenging his brother to a grueling duel of life and death. Then there was those damn fifty years that Inuyasha had been pinned to a tree. At least he had a battle with cat youkai to keep busy with for awhile. There were few times that there was not a dispute to settle within his territory. Yes, he was always able to find something with which to occupy his time. Well, usually. Right now, it was settling his affairs with the wolf pack, which meant Ayame in particular. And that brought his attention back to the present to find Rin chattering away as she was accustomed to doing.

 

“Lord Sesshoumaru? Where are we going? Is there a place to take a bath in here? Don't I need to get my stuff? Are you going to stay?”

 

“Rin, be quiet,” Sesshoumaru commanded, though not harshly.

 

“Ayame, take her to retrieve her possessions,” Sesshoumaru instructed as he turned back, deposited Rin onto her own two feet and attempted to not sound like an overbearing lord; which was next to impossible.

 

Doing her best to be the `submissive' lupa, the role that she had put herself into, Ayame merely nodded and held out her hand to Rin.

 

As they trotted away, Sesshoumaru realized that Rin had spoken of herself in the first person tense and he decided that it was a good thing. Being such, Kouga's pack was definitely having a good influence on Rin.

 

`Another benefit of being mated to a powerful pack leader.'

 

With that realization, Sesshoumaru's thoughts began to wander to more enjoyable activities that he and Kouga had engaged in. Speaking of which...

 

“Hey, Sesshoumaru,” came a deep sultry voice from behind him.

 

Not really caring who Kouga had left in charge of the pack's children, Sesshoumaru's gaze was swallowed up into the depths of cerulean blue eyes laced with thick, black lashes. Those eyes, it was always those eyes that made him lose himself. The full pink lips set against bronze only helped to pull him in. Right now, that pull drew him down into a soft, gentle kiss.

 

“You smell like Rin,” Kouga mumbled against Sesshoumaru's lips.

 

“Hm,” was the only reply as Sesshoumaru deepened the kiss, effectively cutting off any other words that Kouga might use to distract them.

 

And that was how Ayame found them, Sesshoumaru palming Kouga's cheek while the two shared what appeared to be a very tender moment. For some strange reason, it lit butterflies in her stomach and she stooped to put her hand over Rin's mouth. They watched as Sesshoumaru caressed Kouga's cheekbone with his thumb. Kouga reached up to put his arms around Sesshoumaru's neck.

 

It wasn't so much who it was that made such a sight enthralling as that there were two beautiful and powerful beings so immersed in their own feelings for one another that the outside world had ceased to exist. That was why pack did not reject open displays. It was…touching, beautiful, an example to be followed. Not the lust driven rutting that Ayame had so often imagined.

 

Ayame was not even aware of the fact that her bitterness toward Sesshoumaru was beginning to wane. He was powerful, protected her and the pack's children, protected Rin even before that, and seemed to love the little girl.

 

Oh, Kouga and Sesshoumaru were right about what impressed females, but they had no idea that it was Sesshoumaru's care for Rin that had been responsible for tipping the scales. Even had Sesshoumaru not made that little display for her, it would have eventually been made obvious on its own. Sesshoumaru had only succeeded in speeding the process.

 

“Damn armor,” they heard Kouga growl.

 

Though any further proceedings in the direction that Kouga and Sesshoumaru appeared to be heading would have been common place and accepted within the pack's community, it was not so with a human child. With that in mind, Ayame stood and cleared her throat. It was awkward to do the unthinkable and disturb a couple engaged in such activities, and one day, Rin would either need to be incorporated into their culture or Sesshoumaru would need to take her to live among humans. Perhaps Sesshoumaru had servants that could raise her. At the very least, a decision needed to be made, and soon. The pack could not indefinitely tiptoe around the human.

 

Of course, the innocent little Rin thought it was one of the sweetest things she had ever seen. It felt good to know that her Lord was happy, that someone could make him feel good. She wanted so badly to giggle, but as long as Ayame's fingers were gently laid across her lips, she did her best to squash the little bubbles of laughter. Her Lord was happy and it made her soul sing.

 

Perhaps Rin was more astute and accepting than any of the adults assumed.

 

`Yes! I'll make a new happy song for Lord Sesshoumaru and his new mate! Now all I have to do is think of one,' she thought as her brows furrowed in her attempts to create something worthy of her Lord.

 

“I believe that Rin and I are capable of seeing to her bath,” Ayame decided as she watched the two part, yet not able to take their gaze from each other.

 

“Hm,” was all that Sesshoumaru was capable of voicing at the moment.

 

Kouga managed to turn his face toward Ayame. “Take your time,” he rasped.

 

~*~

 

Bath time was a very educational experience for Ayame, just as she had hoped it would be. It wasn't difficult to get Rin to talk about Sesshoumaru, but she hadn't expected so much information. It appeared that Rin was most impressed with her lord; enough that the conversation was mostly one sided…

 

“And when Kouga returned the nice fluffy robe, Lord Sesshoumaru was so sad. He tries so hard not to let people see how he feels because he has to be strong so that demons won't try to hurt me. But that time he even let me hug him. I never want to see him like that again. I made him lots of pretty flower chains and sang and danced for him. I think that it made him feel a little better, but not much. Then he went away for awhile and I could tell he was happy when he came back.”

 

Rin sighed as the sad look on her face made Ayame feel sorry for Rin and Sesshoumaru. They seemed to have been alone much of the time, and Rin had done her best to repay Sesshoumaru for his kindness. There was a softness that he was unwilling to admit. Yet, Rin knew it was there.

 

“Sometimes when he is watching me and Jakken play, he will smile just a little when he doesn't think that I see him. But I watch when he doesn't know. I know that he is just teasing Jakken when he steps on him or throws rocks on him. It is so funny.” Rin sighed wistfully. “I think, when he found out that it makes me laugh that he did it a lot more. Jakken knows. That's why it doesn't upset him as much as it used to. I think that Jakken chases me around more because he saw that Sesshoumaru liked it. We try to make him happy. He just seemed so lonely when I first met him. Jakken was always talking to him and Sesshoumaru wouldn't be pleased, but now Jakken talks to me.”

 

“But Rin, why did he leave you alone all the time?” This was a question that had been niggling at the back of Ayame's mind for quite some time. How could he go off and leave unprotected if he cared for her so much? It just didn't seem right.

 

“Oh, he knows that Jakken and Ah Uhn will protect me. I only get into trouble when I go off by myself and trick Jakken into not finding me. I had to quit playing that game. Lord Sesshoumaru gets mad because he's scared that I could have been hurt really bad.”

 

“He gets scared?” Ayame asked in disbelief.

 

“Only when me and Jakken get into trouble. And then he gets very angry. That's bad for youkai who try to hurt me. He's not scared to fight. He knows that he will win. He always does and he protects me. I trust him with all my heart,” Rin declared with large eyes and her hands crossed over her chest.

 

“Why doesn't he get you food? He just lets you go off and get it yourself.”

 

“He wants me to learn how to be strong and he doesn't eat human food.” Rin giggled. “I know that he listens for me to make sure that I'm okay, but he pretends that he doesn't. I saw him one time up in the sky watching. He thinks he's so sneaky.” Rin giggled again and splashed around in the water.

 

Ayame smiled as Rin ducked under the water and came up singing.

 

“Lord Sesshoumaru is happy

So Rin is happy too.

Lord Sesshoumaru, Lord Sesshoumaru

I'll always sing and dance for you.

I'll sing for you and Kouga too

And not be scared `cause I love you.

And I'll have lots of flowers for you

`cause I know you love me too…”

 

Ayame smiled as the little girl happily jumped around, splashing, dancing and singing. Apparently, there was a lot more to Sesshoumaru than she had once believed.

 

 

~*~

 

 

Clothes flew around the room in a flurry, landing haphazardly around the floor. After all, there wasn't a whole hell of a lot of time. Rin would be returning soon.

 

Sesshoumaru and Kouga fell to the floor none too gently as their mouths met in a searing passionate kiss, each male struggling to gain the dominant position.

 

“Stop it. We gotta hurry!” Kouga demanded with words that were muffled against Sesshoumaru's lips.

 

All he received for his trouble was a low growl when Sesshoumaru flipped him onto his back, pinning Kouga with his full body weight.

 

“I'm the alpha in my den and I'm going to be on top.”

 

“Alright,” Sesshoumaru chuckled, finally giving in and rolling over.

 

No sooner was he on his back than his thighs were being forcibly spread and his legs hiked up over Kouga's shoulders until his ass was well off of the floor.

 

“I know you like it rough, so no preparation. I don't want to take the time anyway,” Kouga panted as he used his own precum and saliva to wet his straining erection. “Doesn't mean that I like it though,” he smirked.

 

He was already hard as a rock and didn't need any encouragement, particularly with having Sesshoumaru's ass staring right at him.

 

“And what happened to `We gotta hurry', my wolf,” Sesshoumaru smirked, drawing Kouga out of his appreciative perusal of Sesshoumaru's pale luscious body.

 

Without preamble, Kouga plunged himself deep within Sesshoumaru's body, completely burying his swollen erection. Both men were gasping for air with the abrupt intrusion.

 

“Fuck,” Kouga groaned as he held tight to Sesshoumaru's thighs and partially withdrew, leaving the tight heat behind.

 

Yes, they needed to hurry, but Kouga wanted a little time to enjoy Sesshoumaru. Already, sheen of sweat covered his skin. He trembled in the effort to not just pound his lover into the floor. Instead of taking what he wanted, he set a steady languid pace, impaling his partner over and over again. It was hot and tight. Everything that he needed.

 

Sesshoumaru's mind whirled with the sensation of being filled. With his legs up, lifting him from the floor, his blood was pooling in the upper half of his body, only helping to cloud his mind and to bring out a beautiful pink flush on his face and neck. Tipping his head back, lips parted, eyes closed and claws gripping the furs, he became lost to everything but the warm body of his mate.

 

When Kouga gradually quickened his pace, Sesshoumaru could feel the heat of his desire for completion swelling his skin and tightening his abdomen. He wanted it now, fast and hard. His body demanded it.

 

“Don't hold back, wolf,” Sesshoumaru half panted, half growled.

 

“You asked for it,” Kouga replied before gradually quickening the pace and strength of his thrusts.

 

For Kouga, the arching of Sesshoumaru's body was more exciting than ever and it heated the fire running through his veins. Not wanting to leave his mate wanting, Kouga reached around and using the copious quantity of the clear liquid leaking from the tip of Sesshoumaru's cock, he began pumping Sesshoumaru's erection in time with his thrusts.

 

“Ung, Kouga,” Sesshoumaru rasped when his hips involuntarily snapped forward.

 

“Gods, you're sexy, Sesshoumaru,” Kouga panted and began slamming himself into his lover, no longer able to hold back.

 

“Likewise,” Sesshoumaru grunted, his eyes clouded with lust as he gazed up at Kouga.

 

Beneath Kouga's bronzed skin, muscles danced with a steady rolling rhythm. Sesshoumaru watched as Kouga's face and neck flushed with a healthy shade of red. Amber and cerulean locked in an intense consuming stare. His mate's eyes were fixed with determination, jaws clenched with the effort to bring Sesshoumaru to release. The longer he gazed into those amazing cerulean blue eyes, the closer he was drawn toward his peak.

 

“Do it,” Sesshoumaru whispered before his eyes rolled back into his head and his neck craned under the fury of the throbbing of his flesh while Kouga relentlessly slammed into him.

 

“Come for me, mate,” Kouga rasped as he adjusted the tilt of his hips so that he was brushing that sensitive bundle of nerves that always turned Sesshoumaru into a writhing mass of ecstasy.

 

Just as expected, Sesshoumaru's body jerked and shuddered, arching and bowing. The taiyoukai's chest heaved with the need for more and more air.

 

“Kouga,” he hissed between clenched teeth just before his body stilled with every muscle as stiff as a board.

 

And then it happened. A sudden explosion of tingling sparks erupted in Sesshoumaru's belly.

 

Kouga watched as Sesshoumaru's mouth dropped open and those succulent, pink swollen lips parted. Just after Sesshoumaru's body seemed to go completely limp, his back bowed and his cock pulsed. Streams of white cream shot over Kouga's hand while Sesshoumaru howled, his body arching and bowing with each spasm. Kouga could never describe the sight of his lover in the throes of passion. All control left the Lord of the Western Lands. And each time Kouga witnessed it, it was that sight more than anything that would shove him over the edge.

 

Three strokes had Kouga joining his mate, howling a combination of triumph and completion. Falling forward as he spilled his warm seed into Sesshoumaru, Kouga plastered himself to Sesshoumaru's torso. Sesshoumaru's legs tightened around his waist, shoving him deeper while restricting the jerking of his body. He could feel Sesshoumaru continuing to surge beneath him and shoved back on Sesshoumaru thighs, hitting that spot once again.

 

“Ah!” Sesshoumaru cried out as a new wave of convulsions overtook him.

 

“Ung,” Kouga responded to the clenching of Sesshoumaru's inner walls, setting off a whole new round of tremors.

 

Both clutched each other as the passionate fury whipping through their bodies gradually lessened, leaving them in a shivering heap.

 

“That was,” Sesshoumaru began in a low gravely voice.

 

“Fucking awesome,” Kouga finished for him.

 

Sesshoumaru allowed his legs and arms to slide from around Kouga. His body seemed to melt into the floor, the afterglow threatening to drag him into a deep slumber. That is, until he smelled a familiar scent. Sliding his eyes to the right, he caught a glimpse of Ayame slipping out of the room. He sniffed again and noticed that her scent was tinged with arousal.

 

“Kouga,” Sesshoumaru grunted under the weight of his lover.

 

“I know,” Kouga yawned against Sesshoumaru's neck.

 

“We have a very fortuitous situation.”

 

“Hm.”
