Chapter 4 - Uh Oh

 

When she could think clearly again, Kagome whispered to him, her lips brushing his temple softly. “Did you bite me?”

 

Fearing that she was angry or upset about it he lifted his head to look at her. “This Sesshoumaru apologizes. I did not intend to…”

 

“You don't need to apologize,” she interrupted. “It's okay. I was just wondering why.”

 

He thought for a moment before answering honestly. “It just happened. I don't really know why. Does it hurt?”

 

Kagome smiled at him. “Not really. Is it bleeding?”

 

Sesshoumaru studied where his fangs had pierced her throat, seeing that the punctures were already closing. “No, licking the wound has aided in healing.” He moved slowly, not really wanting to break their connection but worried about her comfort under his weight, and they both hissed at the sensation as his now softening cock slid out of her body. He sat on the edge of the bed and frowned when Kagome gasped.

 

“Shit, Sesshoumaru! Why didn't you tell me I was hurting you?”

 

He lifted a brow at her. “You did not hurt this Sesshoumaru.”

 

“Your back, it's covered in scratches!” She ran a finger carefully along one of the worst looking angry red lines before looking at her fingertip and seeing blood. “How the hell could it not hurt? They're bleeding!”

 

Sesshoumaru turned slightly and watched her closely as she studied his blood on her fingertip before slipping her tongue out to taste his life's fluid. She looked surprised for a moment and then moved behind him, trailing her tongue along the scratches, cleaning the little drops of his blood from his back and making him moan softly. “What are you doing, Kagome?” he asked quietly, not wanting her to stop but incredibly curious about why this human girl seemed so entranced by his blood.

 

“I don't know,” she whispered before continuing, whining softly when she found that she'd gotten it all.

 

He turned to look at her again and pulled her into his lap. “You did not hurt this Sesshoumaru, but your interest in my blood is intriguing.”

 

“How can you say it didn't hurt?”

 

He studied her face for a moment, debating whether he wanted to confess the truth to her or not. Deciding that the truth would be best considering that he was planning on keeping her for a long time to come, Sesshoumaru cupped her cheek with one hand and pressed a gentle kiss to her lips. “Because this Sesshoumaru enjoyed it… very much.”

 

“You mean you liked me scratching you?” He nodded. “Even though it was enough to make you bleed?” He nodded again, his eyes narrowing as her face gained a dazed expression, wondering just what the hell she was thinking about. “Are you saying…” Kagome frowned at her difficulty focusing enough to complete a single thought. “… that it didn't hurt or that it hurt… but you didn't mind… because you enjoyed it, enjoyed the… the pain?”

 

“Kagome? Are you alright?” She slowly shook her head and Sesshoumaru watched with worry as she appeared to withdraw into herself, looking like her mind was further and further away by the second. She gasped with what sounded like pain and the taiyoukai was terrified when her eyes rolled back in her head and she passed out cold. “Kagome? Kagome?!” he yelled while trying to shake her awake. “Kagome!” He checked her breathing and heart rate and when he was sure that everything sounded normal he stood and paced the floor of her room for a minute, trying to decide what to do. Something was obviously wrong.

 

Finally he decided that he needed help and grabbed her phone of the bedside table and dialed his father's private line. He almost sighed in relief as a familiar voice answered quickly, assuming from the caller ID that it was Kagome calling him, which wasn't out of the ordinary at all.

 

“Father, something is wrong. Something is very wrong and I don't know what to do!”

 

“Sesshoumaru?” the elder taiyoukai said in a both surprised and worried tone. “What's wrong with Kagome?”

 

“I don't know! I don't know what happened. One minute she was fine and the next she seemed overly distracted and then her eyes rolled back in her head and she passed out. She's still breathing normally and her heart sounds alright, but I can't get her to wake up!”

 

“Calm down, son. I can't help you if you can't stay calm. Tell me, what was she doing right before this happened?”

 

“She was talking to this Sesshoumaru, and before that… we were… she and I…”

 

“You finally went after her?”

 

Sesshoumaru frowned at the phone, remembering that Inuyasha had said the exact same thing. “Why is that such a surprise?” He asked angrily.

 

“Now isn't the time. You didn't hurt her during… did you?”

 

“Of course not! At least… she didn't say anything was wrong. She didn't act like I'd caused her injury.”

 

“It's alright, son. Everything is going to be alright. You need to keep your head if you want to do her any good. Tell me, does she have a fever?”

 

“I don't know. I'll check.” Sesshoumaru returned to her side but when he reached towards her he pulled his hand back with a yelp of shocked pain.

 

“What happened?”

 

“How… she… a barrier…”

 

“Sesshoumaru?! Did you just say `barrier'?”

 

The demon shook himself in an attempt to make his body stop tingling painfully after such a powerful jolt. “There is a barrier around her. How can there be a barrier around her?”

 

The older inu was silent for nearly a whole minute, wracking his brain for an explanation for the strange situation his eldest son was in. “Was there anything else? Anything you didn't mention between when you were intimate with her and when she passed out?”

 

Sesshoumaru paled. “My blood…”

 

“What about your blood?”

 

His modesty was no more. He was much too worried about Kagome to be embarrassed. “She'd scratched this Sesshoumaru's back and when she noticed them she discovered that some of the scratches were bleeding. It was strange. She stared at my blood on her finger for a moment before she licked it clean. It looked like she didn't even know what she was doing and then she started licking the small cuts on my back and when I asked her about it she had no idea why she was doing it. She even whimpered when there was no more.”

 

“Sesshoumaru, you need to get out of that room right now. Leave her where she is, close the door, and do not go back inside. I'll be there in half an hour.”

 

“I can't leave her…”

 

 

His protests were cut off by a vicious snarl. “You will do as I say! Now go!”

 

The older demon hung up and Sesshoumaru stared at the dead phone in his hand before setting it on the base and slowly walking away from her. He gazed at her longingly before obeying and closing her bedroom door. Whatever the problem was it was obviously serious and moments later he was on the phone again, calling Inuyasha's cell and demanding the whelp return home immediately. Inuyasha almost refused, but the strange tone in his brother's voice stopped him and once he'd been filled in on what little Sesshoumaru knew he was already halfway home.
