Chapter Thirteen
“My Sin?” Her voice was softer than a whisper as she moved her gaze to Naraku, his black eyes filled with barely contained irritation.
His laugh was cruel but cold as he stepped to the side revealing the person who had captured Kagura, the long thin chain wrapped around small hands. Rin’s fingers tightened on their hold on InuYasha’s clothing as she stared in disbelief. The boy was a carbon copy of Kohaku, almost an exact replica and a twinge of pain seized her heart. His hair was shaggy and thrown up into a high ponytail, the shoulder length merely a tad darker in color than Kohaku’s. His eyes were the same melted brown, though the pair staring at her were completely lifeless and even the same freckles dusted the bridge of his nose and suddenly Rin felt faint.
“What kind of joke is this Naraku?” InuYasha growled angrily at her side, his arm wrapping around her shoulders and holding her close to his chest.
“No joke this time,” Naraku replied, his long finger trailing down the side of the boy’s face with a feather’s touch. “This human is quite a looker yes? I’ve named him Sin, I’m quite fond of puns. Though, I’m told he resembles his father. What do you think Rin? Does he look like Kohaku to you?”
“My Sin?” she repeated quietly to herself as she continued to stare at the boy.
Nothing was making sense. Kohaku hadn’t had any children, he had only been with her for a few years before his death, it was impossible. If Kohaku died all those years ago then there wasn’t a way in heaven or hell that he could have a son no older than Rin herself. Why wasn’t this making sense? She was slow in understanding, the avalanche of all the day’s events attacking her and when it clicked she felt faint. Kagura already stated that she had been pregnant once, that Naraku had been upset it happened again and no the creature let it be known that he had taken her child.
“H-he’s my son,” How? Why was this happening to her now? She could feel the shame building deep within he chest; she failed at everything she did. She couldn’t protect the ones she loved or herself for that matter and knowing she had destroyed her child’s life without knowing was beginning to destroy her. “Give him back to me.”
Rin released her hold on InuYasha’s clothing and took a step towards Naraku even though all of her muscles screamed at her to stand still. She wanted her son no matter what Naraku had done to him because he had been a gift from Kohaku; albeit an unexpected one, but he was all there was left besides the memories of her fairy tale happiness. She felt more than she saw Naraku’s smile widen as he feet took another step closer to him, the alarms ringing off in her mind as InuYasha tried to pull her back, his hands unable to grab her and instantly she knew there was something wrong with her.
“You fool!” Kagura’s voice growled shrilly throwing Rin from the trance she found herself in.
The wind picked up violently and she watched in horror as the wind witch swung her fan trying to break the thin chain holding her and hit Naraku, the razor sharp wind smashing into the boy next to Naraku and slicing through his arm. Bright red blood sprayed out from the wound, the severed arm flopping lifelessly onto the ground , the clink of the chains going unheard as a scream ripped itself free from Rin’s throat. This wasn’t happening! She tried going to her son, her precious boy; however, a pair of strong arms wrapped around her torso and refused to let her move forward. They were hell bent on dragging her back, pulling her away from her child callously.
Naraku’s black eyes flashed red in a brief display of anger, his lips curling into a snarl before straightening and instead of reacting, he simply pasted a sinister smile onto his face and laughed. The red blood that dripped from the boy’s bleeding wound darkened to a smokey gray, the drops lengthening in size until it touched the imoble arm and it twitch suddenly; the blood turning into a web and slowly lifting the appendage and reattaching it to the severed flesh. Kagura gasped in pain, her ruby eyes fading from stubborn disobedience to a lifeless emptiness and her body went slack, the fan clenched tightly in her hand slapping loudly onto the ground and slipping from her fingers.
“I apologize for that abrupt interruption,” Naraku snorted studying his fingernails for imaginary dirt. “But as you can tell, Sin is more mine than he is yours now, though, I would be willing to share him with you should you decide to come with me willingly.”
“Please,” she could feel the tears burning the back of her eyes demanding to fall. Her heart was breaking and no matter how much she wanted her child, she couldn’t go back to Naraku. She was selfish. “Please.”
The severed arm had completely reattached itself, the smoke gray liquid stained on the pale flesh of the boy yards away from her. This couldn’t be happening to her, not now, not this way and she was losing everything. Kagura’s lifeless body was tossed over a small shoulder like a sack of potatoes, those empty brown eyes staring at her threatening to rip apart her soul. She saw the boy in front of her was no longer human, no longer hers and Kohaku’s only child, yet a pet of Naraku’s and he was never known to nurture anything beautiful and good.
“You belong to me Rin,” Naraku cooed as thick fog curled around his knees, his gaze penetrating and life stealing. “You can’t run, can’t hide and soon you’ll be with me again. I will be patient with you for now.”
The fog swallowed Naraku and his companions up and they disappeared into the nothingness. Rin struggled against InuYasha’s hold, incoherent cried in his ears as she clawed at his hands desperately trying to get away. He hated to admit it, but today the two of them had been extremely lucky. If Naraku had pressed to take Rin, if he had been deadly serious to reclaim her, there would have been nothing anyone could have done to prevent it. It didn’t matter that InuYasha himself was strong, not when he was defenseless and Naraku was more than just a half breed, he was a magician of sorts.
InuYasha needed to get Rin out of this small town of emotional horror and back home where she could be protected. She needed to be tucked away out of harm’s path and though it put InuYasha between a rock and a hard place, he was certain that this too would have to be kept under wraps. There was no telling Sesshomaru, not yet when everything was so chaotic and especially not when it was clearly revolving around Rin and Naraku. If Sesshomaru was to actually open his eyes and take a good look around all bets would be off. Someone would die in the end, and though Naraku would definitely be among the bodies, InuYasha feared that so would Rin.
Sure, the small trembling woman in his arms was not his responsibility, she wasn’t after all anything that he would have gotten himself involved in, but somehow Sesshomaru had and though it was a mystery all on it’s own, InuYasha refused to let Naraku get his way. There had to be a bigger explanation to how Rin had fallen into their laps, some elaborate plan that Naraku spun so carefully and mistakes were being made on both ends. No one could predict Sesshomaru’s actions or Kagura’s emotional attachment to said dog demon and they were two important calculations that could not be overlooked.
“Come on Rin,” InuYasha whispered pulling her into his arms, carrying her like he would one of his daughters. “Let’s get you home.”
“Home?” She sniffled, her tears dampening his shirt. “Sesshomaru?”
“Yeah,” he kissed the top of her head, the ebony strands tickling his nose. “Sesshomaru.”
A simple generic store brand pregnancy test brought fact to Kagura’s declaration that Rin was pregnant and the news did not come with a happy heart. It was a joyous occasion after all, it would be Sesshomaru’s first child and InuYasha’s first niece or nephew and yet he could not bring himself to smile and neither did Rin. Too many things were still hiding in the dark, things that even Rin had no way of explaining and InuYasha blamed it solely on Naraku and his scheming. Shippo’s borrowed motorcycle was towed back to the house since it was decided that Rin was not able to ride on it. It took all of three days to make it back and InuYasha heaved a heavy sigh of relief wrapping his arms around his wife, Kagome and their daughters. There wasn’t anything he was more thankful of at that moment than his life being easier than others, and that though he struggled, he was all together happy.
Rin hadn’t adjusted to anything, her overly expressive eyes hidden from everyone’s gaze by her long hair, her hands clasped tightly in front of her and they let her be. Sesshomaru had gone off on another trip and wouldn’t return for a few days to a week and it seemed that the emotionless creature that was his half brother had been affected by Rin’s sudden departure. Kagome spent hours rambling on about the dog demon’s actions that she had been allowed to observe and she chastised Rin for her irrational behavior. The atmosphere was tense and almost unlivable, nonetheless they carried on, all under the strict rules that nothing was wrong and Sesshomaru was not to be informed of anything concerning Rin’s pregnancy or her dealings with Naraku.
It wasn’t a bridge she was ready to cross yet, not with all the emotions she was harboring for Sesshomaru and InuYasha and Kagome kept their mouths shut and she was grateful. She had to find someway out of the mess she’d been thrown into, an escape that didn’t have her ending up in Naraku’s clutches again and though the light at the end of the tunnel was fading she knew there had to be a way out. Rin began spending more time with Kagome, the younger woman was easy to be around, easy to turn to and together they hid the growing bulge of Rin’s stomach and hoped that no one grew any wiser.
That in itself was more difficult to do than anything Rin remembered being hard and somehow she found herself getting through the days. She was ballooning out, her feet swelling a little bit and there were days that when Sesshomaru glanced at her she swore that he knew. InuYasha had warned her that hiding it from Sesshomaru was next to impossible, and she prayed--no hoped that maybe he could be naïve to her just this once. Of course she had no idea what she was going to do when the big day came, what excuses she could give that would be believable, but she would face it when the time came.
“Rin,” Sesshomaru had been home for two weeks and she had gone back to sleeping in her own room. Truthfully it felt weird sleeping alone, but measures had to be taken and they were not to be taken lightly.
Rin marked the page with the thin ribbon she’d been given as a bookmark before glancing up to meet his gaze. She was nervous as she watched him at the doorway, his lean shoulders bracing themselves against the frame, his long silver hair fluttering over him. The book she’d been reading was set down on the nightstand next to her, and she felt her heart skip a beat from the way he was looking at her.
“How are you feeling?” His tone was unfamiliar as he came to her, the bed dipping from his settling weight. This was behavior was unlike the Sesshomaru she’d known.
“I’m okay,” she bit down on her lip as his long fingers pulled strands of her hair behind her ear. “I’m a little tired, but I can’t seem to fall asleep.”
“Tomorrow,” Sesshomaru’s kiss was gentle and chaste. “I will be going into the office and I’ll be taking you with me.”
Rin knew she should have felt terrified about being taken from her home, about being without protection from InuYasha, but she couldn’t drum up the strength to worry as Sesshomaru melted her with his kisses. She hadn’t realized how much she ached for his touch, how much she yearned for him to be with her and now it was it was inescapable. Her body curled around him, her chest heaving and her fingers digging into his skin as he took her as his own. The pain was gone, overthrown by the power of the emotions running through her. It was scary and exhilarating and she met Sesshomaru’s lips in a bruising kiss, desperately trying to keep her heart from bursting from her chest.
She couldn’t move after she had been thrown over the edge, her muscles screaming in release, her voice crying out as she clung to Sesshomaru as best she could. She would have happily died if she could go feeling so beautifully and Rin smiled. She was happy, dangerously so pillowed against Sesshomaru’s shoulder and it felt as though nothing could go wrong.
“I love you Sesshomaru,” she whispered against his skin as her heavy eyes demanded to close.
If she had known that it would be those three words that would ruin everything she’d been given in this new life of hers she would have swallowed them and never have let them go.
