Consequences: Chapter Thirteen

 

 

 

 

Sesshomaru watched from a distance as Inuyasha sat down at the base of an old tree deep in the forest, hugging his knees tightly against his chest and wearing an expression that would make one think the world itself had just come to an end.

At first, Sesshomaru had felt pleased with himself for having punished Inuyasha's disrespecting of him, but that as the minutes turned into hours and Inuyasha continued to sit there, his face turned down against his legs, ears lightly drooping, Sesshomaru was becoming more and more aware that his pleasure had been replaced with guilt, and he was beginning to feel a little sad about the state of things.

 

He'd just gotten a new mate. They should have been happy and together right now, consummating their mating. That was what caring, normal couples did. This should have been the happiest night of his life, and his mates. That was how things were supposed to be when one mated.

Instead, all Inuyasha had wanted to do was yell at him about what an awful man he was and how terrible it was that he'd mated with him, and then they'd started threatening each other over the child they'd only just conceived. Though, he had started that himself… he'd said it more because he was angry than because it was something he was actually considering, and then he'd continued it without thinking about whether he meant it or not. He had a tendency not to think when he was angry… Sesshomaru didn't want his pup to be deprived of a parent. But Inuyasha had meant what he'd said about wanting to keep the pup away from him! It bothered Sesshomaru to know that his mate thought so badly of him that he'd consider him unsuitable to raise his own child…a heartless asshole, he'd been called. Considering their history, Sesshomaru couldn't really blame him. And then he'd said those unpleasant things to Inuyasha in an attempt to punish him…

Now Inuyasha was upset. Was it because he'd mated with him, or because he'd threatened to take away their pup? Or because of what he'd said to him? He'd seen how miserable he'd become Inuyasha had become over the unkind words of the miko that night. His brother, he realised, was actually far more sensitive than he let on. Sesshomaru just wanted Inuyasha to stop looking so miserable and start accepting his role as his mate. Somehow, they'd have to find a way to get along and build a decent relationship together. It wouldn't do to provide their child with an unhealthy environment to grow up in.

And this was not an acceptable start to their life together.

 

Slowly, he approached his mate.

“Inuyasha, you are my mate now, and you will have to accept that. I will protect and provide for you and our pup, and in return, you will at least show me respect.” He said.

Inuyasha didn't look up at him, and remained silent.

Sesshomaru let out a tiny sigh, exasperated. The one time he wanted his loud mouthed sibling to talk, he wouldn't.

“Neither of us will attempt to take the pup away from the other.” Sesshomaru told him.

“Oh, really? I thought you said I should be grateful you'd even consider letting me near it, what with me being a stupid, not cultured, incompetent hanyou and all that stuff.” Inuyasha's tone was bitter, and he glared up at his brother.

Sesshomaru sat down next to him.

 

“I should not have said such things. I was angry.” He told him, some degree of reluctance apparent in his voice.

“So? You still meant them! You really think those things! I don't want you near me! Go away!” Yelled Inuyasha.

Sesshomaru wasn't sure what to say. It was true, he did think Inuyasha was fortunate he was going to let him raise their child, and he did think he was a foul mouthed, violent, incompetent, rash, and irrational person. He'd shown those qualities on various occasions, and surely most other youkai would never want a hanyou raising their child. But, he'd seen good qualities in Inuyasha too. He was loyal, courageous, determined, honourable, spirited, beautiful, and, though Sesshomaru hated to admit it, he was also strong.

 

“You have many faults, Inuyasha. I'm sure you are aware of that. However, you also have… redeeming qualities. There are things I like about you, and I intend for us to have a good relationship so that we can raise our pup properly together.” Said Sesshomaru.

Inuyasha glared, quietly scrutinising him for a long time, making Sesshomaru feel a bit uncomfortable.

“Well if you want that, then why did you just rush in and mark me without even asking, and then say all that shitty stuff?” Asked Inuyasha.

“I didn't expect you to react with such anger, and I said those things out of spite. I was angry.” He replied.

“That's no excuse! Gods! If I'm going to be stuck with someone for the rest of my life, I'd at least like some warning! And then you threaten to take my pup away from me if I don't do whatever you want! And now you claim to want us to have a good relationship?!” Demanded Inuyasha.

“I didn't think you would agree if I had asked you. I don't intend to keep you away from our pup or mistreat you, Inuyasha.” Said Sesshomaru.

“You didn't think I'd agree? I do want our pup to have both it's parents around you know! Why wouldn't I have agreed if you'd come and asked and said this stuff, instead of just biting me and being a bastard like that?!”

Sesshomaru paused.

“I was…confused, at the time.” He answered.

“Confused?,” Inuyasha sounded sceptic. Sesshomaru ran a hand through his hair. No suitable lies came to mind…

“I thought that you'd gone back to the miko.” He admitted.

“oh….” Inuyasha paused for a moment, thinking. “So, you thought you'd tear me away from her by forcing me to be your mate? Fuck you!” He exclaimed.

“She is unworthy of you! I wanted you, and tearing you away from her would have been doing you a favour anyway, Inuyasha.” Said Sesshomaru.

“So…you were jealous?” Inuyasha asked.

“Yes.” He admitted.

“Good. That's still no excuse, though.” The hanyou didn't seem much consoled.

“The result would have been the same either way, then. Does it really matter?” Asked the daiyoukai.

“Yes! It does!”

Sesshomaru watched his mate dig his claws into the dirt in irritation.

“In what way?” He asked. He just wished Inuyasha would get over it and start accepting the situation. The hanyou was just so…exasperating!

“In what way?! What way? You didn't even ask! Asshole! At least maybe then we could have come to some sort of agreement on you having to at least try to be less of a bastard!” Exclaimed Inuyasha.

“As I said, I intend for us to have a good relationship.” He told him.

“Keh.” Inuyasha seemed to be sceptical, but shut up.

After a long pause, Sesshomaru slid a hand over to feel Inuyasha's stomach.

“What are you doing? It's not like it's big enough to feel anything yet, baka!” Cried the irritated hanyou.

“I am aware of that.” Replied Sesshomaru.

“Then stop it! Everyone's been trying to touch my stomach all day, and I'm fucking sick of it! Why does everyone do that?!” Demanded Inuyasha. He slapped the daiyoukai's hand away in annoyance, but it returned immediately.

“It's exciting…to think of the life growing in there, is it not?” Said Sesshomaru, “Our pup... I should be able to touch if I feel like it.” He slid his hand inside of Inuyasha's clothing, caressing the soft skin of his stomach, and pulled him into a firm embrace. Inuyasha frowned, but didn't resist or say anything.

He held him like that for a while, quietly enjoying the closeness of his mate that his instincts had been crying out for.

 

Inuyasha knew he should really be angry and yelling at the bastard, but…he just couldn't be bothered resisting. Sesshomaru's warm body, his mate's arms around him, it felt far too good to push away. The traumatised hanyou was not about to reject any kind of niceness…and this was definitely nice… he didn't like to admit it to himself, but feeling his mate's hand on his stomach, already caring for the tiny pup inside, gave him a warm, secure feeling.

Really, he supposed it would be much better to save his yelling for later. He relaxed, and let himself nestle against his brother.

After a little while, a hand slid up his back and stroked his hair, then began rubbing one of his ears, making him sigh contentedly.

Sesshomaru's lips met Inuyasha's in a slow kiss, and the hanyou devoted his attention to caressing his mate's tongue with his own. The hand which had been stroking his stomach started gently exploring his body, and despite his attempts to cling to the lingering annoyance at his brother, he could feel himself becoming aroused.

Inuyasha didn't protest as he felt his haori being removed, the heat of his mate's body sharply contrasting with the feel of cold night air against his skin.

 

Shivers of excitement ran down his spine as Sesshomaru's hand crept inside of his hakama and began stroking his manhood. It quickly began to harden under the slow, firm strokes.

He reached up to tangle his claws in his brother's hair, loving the feeling of it between his fingers. For some reason, it suddenly occurred to him that from now on, he'd be able to touch that lovely silky hair whenever he wanted.

Inuyasha pulled away from the kiss to admire the daiyoukai's elegant face. Deep amber eyes framed by dark lashes under crimson lids, that enigmatic indigo crescent moon, and sharp stripes that seemed to accentuate the regal structure of his cheekbones…Inuyasha decided this was certainly a face he could enjoy looking at everyday, regardless of Sesshomaru's bastardliness.

 

Soft, full lips met his own as his mate leaned in to kiss him again, and Inuyasha moaned, thrusting himself into Sesshomaru's hand. Maybe being his mate wouldn't be all that bad…

He felt his hakama being eased over his hips, and kicked them away, not wanting anything to be in the way of more pleasure coming to him.

Sesshomaru pulled away, a faint smile gracing his features as his eyes devoured every inch of Inuyasha's exposed body.

“You are very beautiful, my mate…” He murmured.

Inuyasha blushed, and Sesshomaru's smile widened as he licked his way down his mate's chest, pausing to suckle at a nipple before trailing a line of kisses to the weeping cock in his hand.

 

He gasped as he felt Sesshomaru's lips descended upon the head of his throbbing member, the tongue brushing over it's tip before slowly taking it all the way in, sending waves of pleasure coursing through him.

The talented hand that had been pleasuring his cock had shifted down to fondle his balls, and the hanyou clutched at Sesshomaru's head, mewling helplessly at the incredible sensations of heat and wetness.

Frustrated to realise he couldn't see or touch his brother's delicious pale skin, Inuyasha reached down, thankful that the difficult armour had already been removed at some point, it was easy for him to tear away the remaining obstructing garment. His mate was truly a work of art, with that smooth, creamy coloured skin over the well defined muscles of his perfect physique. And he would be the only one to enjoy it from now on. Inuyasha liked that thought, but it was quickly driven from his mind by lust for more of what Sesshomaru's tongue was doing to his cock.

He was released, briefly, and could only watch with frustrated anticipation as his mate raised a hand to his mouth, staring lustily up into his eyes as he coated his fingers in saliva.

Sesshomaru's mouth soon returned to his swollen cock, assaulting it with sucks and licks as he slid a pair of fingers into Inuyasha's tight opening and began massaging his passage and teasing his prostate. Another finger joined them, and then another, stretching his small entrance. He moaned, pulling at his lover's hair as he was overcome with pleasure. In a short time, Inuyasha felt himself tensing in Sesshomaru's mouth, but right when he was about to come, the daiyoukai took his mouth and hands away, leaving him whining in need.

 

Sesshomaru quickly removed his hakama, and made them both comfortable on his soft mokomoko-sama. Inuyasha had a brief moment to admire his mate's large, hard cock, and once again was surprised by the intimidating size of it. Did that thing really fit inside of him?

He found himself a mildly nervous as Sesshomaru positioned himself at his entrance. Would this hurt, now that he wasn't in heat anymore?

Inuyasha moaned loudly as his brother gradually entered him. There was no pain, only intense pleasure and a wonderful stretching feeling. He felt so full… somehow, it was as though he'd been incomplete up until that moment. Right when he was beginning to feel impatient, Sesshomaru began to move, pulling out almost all the way before sliding back into him. He shut his eyes in bliss, and wrapped his legs tightly around his mate.

His lips were captured in a kiss, then Sesshomaru increased the pace a little, hitting his sweet spot with every thrust. When his brother slid a hand between them and wrapped it around Inuyasha's cock, the world shrunk around him, until it consisted of himself, his mate, and the blinding, mind-numbing ecstasy surging through his body.

He howled and cried out in pleasure as Sesshomaru continued thrusting passionately into his entrance, occasionally pausing to bestow lusty kisses upon his lips and neck, or slowing down until Inuyasha uttered a barely comprehensible plea for him to go faster.

All too soon, it became too much for him. His entire body tensed as his come shot out to coat their abdomens, and he was engulfed in pleasure so intense it was almost painful, making him teeter on the verge of consciousness. He was vaguely aware of his mate crying his name, and his hot seed filling his bowels before his muscles turned to water and he lay, almost stunned, by the sheer force of what he'd experienced.

Sesshomaru slowly withdrew, and rolled over to hold him in his arms. Inuyasha nestled into the embrace, exhausted and content. For a brief time, he felt satisfied, cared for, dazed, safe, and entirely…euphoric. Then sleepiness overtook, and he passed into oblivion.

 

 

When Sesshomaru woke up, Inuyasha was still peacefully sleeping cuddled up against his chest. The daiyoukai's mind ran excitedly back over the previous night's events, and he placed a hand on his mate's stomach. This was nice…this was really… nice. He'd heard from other inuyoukai that cuddling with your newly pregnant mate was one of the best things you could do with them, and Sesshomaru was surprised to find it was true. There was a warm, satisfied feeling, unlike any other, that he didn't want to go away. If Inuyasha would only continue sleeping a while longer…

 

No such luck.

The hanyou was already sleepily opening his eyes. His mouth opening in a long yawn, and he blinked a couple of times. Then, his eyes widened, he let out a squawk, and like lightening, leapt away from Sesshomaru with an embarrassed, annoyed look on his face. The daiyoukai thought it was cute, even more so when Inuyasha stumbled slightly, letting out a tiny hiss of pain before righting himself, and glaring angrily down at him.

“Bastard! You- you…mated with me!” He exclaimed.

“I believe we established that last night, Inuyasha.” Replied Sesshomaru.

“You can't just…do that! Gods…” Inuyasha hastily grabbed his clothing, covering himself with it. He looked like he was going to run off somewhere. Sesshomaru didn't want that. He'd only recently woken up, and didn't feel like wandering around to protect his idiotic pregnant mate yet.

“Wait.” He commanded.

“What?!” Inuyasha demanded.

“You are not to go anywhere yet.” Said Sesshomaru.

“I'll go wherever I want, asshole!” the hanyou was quickly becoming furious. Sesshomaru didn't really understand what his problem was. There was no time to find out, either, as Inuyasha insolently ran off through the forest.

Knowing that demanding Inuyasha to come back would be futile, Sesshomaru reluctantly got up and dressed himself, then followed after his mate.

Inuyasha's scent lead him first toward the village, then, approaching it, turned back towards the well from the previous night for a little way, before turning a third time to head for the river.

A/N: Many thankyous for all the reviews!

I'm somewhat unhappy with this chapter, and will probably come back and edit it at some point.
