InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Light into a Darkened Heart ❯ The Meadow ( Chapter 9 )

Mantra: Don't own it, Don't own it, Don't own it.....have I reached enlightenment yet?

Curses, I still don't own Pearl Jam either (however I will shamelessly use their music as a plot device).

Let me know what you guys think. This should be enough to get me kicked off of fanfiction.net and to have my work burned up by the ff.net Gestapo.

Chapter 9 - The Meadow

Kouga reached his settlement in record time. He had some plans for that night. His intent was to tease Kagome slowly, make her desire him above anything else.

If he could keep her wanting him, thinking about being with him all the time, this would begin the steps necessary to bind them together. At each step her mind could choose if there would be a next encounter or not. This would allow her the freedom to make the final decision for herself. This was the way youkai wooed mates who were difficult or uncertain. It was a gentle method and it allowed two potential mates to fall deeply in love with each other. Kouga was excited about the first step in this process.

Kagome was wide awake in Kouga's arms and was feeling somewhat disgruntled. Although she could not fathom why, the thought of leaving Kouga tomorrow was a disheartening one. In the span of only hours she had come to appreciate his attentions and the compliments and love he lavished on her. In her heart she knew that when she returned to Inuyasha she would only receive the 'cold shoulder' and his anger over her stay with Kouga. She knew also that long stretches of time could pass between wolf leader's visits and this also bothered her. She felt a little strange about all these strange emotions. Not two days ago, Kagome had been ready to give up Kouga's attentions and see her quest with Inuyasha through to the bitter end, hoping for a miracle. However, new emotions were flooding into her psyche. She was beginning to think that perhaps the end did not need to be so bitter. At the very least, maybe she would be able to put her feelings for Inuyasha into perspective and leave this era with a smile on her face. If she lived through the final battle she would have proof that she was worthy of being loved by someone special. 'Yes, Kouga is special.' She thought.

The deeper shade of darkness behind her eyes broke Kagome from her reverie. She realized that dusk was approaching and she was very hungry. Kouga was intent on getting home and getting Kagome and himself fed before it got too late. He made a detour into Kiya's cave to beg for dinner. When he had crossed into his settlement he had noted his pack going about their evening chores; gathering laundry, rounding up pups, gathering water, and washing dishes. The settlement was quite well camouflaged and hidden. One entered through the waterfall, crossed through the waterfall cave where large tribal functions were held, and passed out the other side into a grassy and tree-covered area, gated on one side by several substantial, rolling hills. On the other side a rock wall, terraced by ledges, extended out from the back of the waterfall cave. This was where the dens were located. From the ground to the highest terrace on the rock wall, dens were arranged in stories. There were wooden and in some case naturally occurring rock paths leading from one story to the next. Some were larger than others, extending further back into the rock wall. This made ample space for many rooms and the pack lived very comfortably.

Kiya met him at the door with a small basket. "Here" she whispered conspiratorially, "Don't screw this up. The sun will set soon." Kouga snorted but accepted the basket. With a small salute he dashed off, headed for the meadow areas beyond the rolling hills.

Kagome spoke up and asked where they were going. Kouga laughed and told her not to worry. They soon reached the meadow and Kouga gently set Kagome down onto the grass. "Be patient, please?" He asked. Kagome merely nodded. She was a little nervous about what he had in mind for them but she trusted him without reservation. Kouga opened the basket and pulled out the thick fur, laying on the ground beside Kagome. He then took out the light supper that Kiya had packed for. Inside a pottery pitcher he found apple wine, a delicacy made by the women of the pack and a specialty of sorts. 'This may ease some anxiety.' He thought. 'But hers or mine?' The wolf demon also pulled out several sealed wooden dishes which, when uncovered, revealed small flour cakes stuffed with cabbage and pork and a salad made from shredded, cooked daikon radish, spices, and sauce.

The wolf prince set their evening meal on the ground in front of the blanket, careful to keep all the food in the dishes. He turned then, bent down, and lifted Kagome over onto the blanket. "What would you like first?" He asked, naming off the food available. "I know we agreed that you would probably only need a little help feeding yourself this time but tonight I am your servant. I will do everything for you, sate every appetite you have, beginning with dinner. Allow me to feed you."

Struck dumb by the eloquence of his request (not the first time this had happened lately) Kagome nodded her head again. Kouga reached out and picked up one of the pancakes. He held it up to her lips and allowed her to take a bite. "Oh! It's so good!" Kagome moaned. Kouga could feel his groin tighten at this but forced it down. Tonight was about her and this was only the first step; he didn't want to overwhelm her. He then held up a bite of the salad for her to try. Kagome opened her mouth again, revealing her pink tongue, and engulfed the food, savoring the taste. At this point Kouga's breathing had quickened and his cock had become painfully hard. He allowed Kagome a few more bites before offering her some of the apple wine. After the first taste, Kagome paused and asked, "Is this alcohol? I don't want to be drunk." The wolf responded. "Don't worry, I will not let you have enough to make you drunk. I do want you to enjoy something that is considered a specialty among the various wolf packs. Our women make the best apple wine in the entire wolf demon kingdom." Kagome smiled and took another sip. Kouga resumed offering her small bites of the meal. Kagome's nervousness over the situation soon led to a feeling of fullness. "I'm finished, Kouga." She stated. "Oh, no, Kagome, we are only getting started." He chuckled. He covered the dishes and wine and placed them back inside the basket. He was far too excited to eat now.

Kouga slid back over onto the fur, positioning himself behind Kagome on his knees. He leaned over and whispered in her ear. "Relax. You have so much power over me, you can never know. I would never hurt you. I only want to bring you pleasure." Kagome relaxed a bit at this and leaned back against Kouga's chest. Kouga gently leaned her up into a sitting position again. He applied mild pressure to the back of her head, indicating that he want her to lower her head to her chest. When she complied, he leaned forward and began to kiss the back of her neck. He kissed all the way down from the back of her scalp to the neckline of her kimono. When he was done there, he began to plant small kisses down the sides of her neck. Kagome moaned and he began to lick her neck also. They were small, sensuous, and slow licks. Kouga snaked himself around to face Kagome. He knelt in front of her and leaned in again. This time he began to kiss and lick the front of her throat, returning again and again to the delicate pulse thumping wildly under her skin.

Kouga knew this had to be all about Kagome but he wanted so desperately to see her semi-clad form again he began to draw her shirt upward, sliding his hands up the bare skin of her torso. When he reached her breasts he cupped them, kneading them gently through the fabric of her undergarment. He slid his tongue, long and slow, from the hollow of her throat up until he reached the sensitive area under her chin. He broke the lick then and brought his lips up to slide open-mouthed over hers. He licked the outside of her lips, teasing her to gain entrance. Kagome parted her lips on a gentle half moan. Kouga's tongue swept inside, rubbing over hers in a manner she was quickly coming to expect from him. His kisses were wonderful. The sensation of his tongue wrapping itself around and pulling on hers was too much for Kagome. She began to push her body toward his, seeking relief. At this point Kouga knew she was ready for the next small step. He broke the kiss and rested back on his heels. He released her breast to pull her shirt over her head. The wolf demon reached around behind her and sliced through the strap at the back of her bra. Kagome was too passion-drunk to care. He tugged the ruined garment off the front of her and gazed in wonder at the beauty laid bare before him.

Carefully, leaning in Kouga began to rub his face and lips over her bare breasts. He nuzzled at them with his lips waiting for her next moan. When it came, he opened his mouth over her nipple, sucking it inside. Having never had a man's mouth on her bare breasts before, Kagome was completely lost. Kouga sucked and tugged on her nipples, alternating the pressure from hard to gentle. He went back and forth between them, sucking and licking one while pinching the other one between his thumb and the knuckle of his forefinger gently. Kouga did not use his teeth at this point, that would have been to rough for this preliminary session and would only serve to urge him to mark her with his bite before it was time.

When Kagome's nipples stood erect and rosy from his attentions, he began to lick a path down to the waist of her skirt. He reached up and pressed gently in the middle of her chest, indicating that she should lie back. Kagome slowly reclined and as she did the wolf prince reached around her waist and released the button her skirt and drew the zipper down. Her skirt slid down and as Kagome's back met the fur, Kouga lifted her hips upward to relieve her of her skirt. Kagome was now in only her panties. Kouga drew these down also, sliding them over her hips and down her legs.

Hey ooh.
Sheets of empty canvas.
Untouched sheets of clay were laid spread out before me as her body once did.
All five horizons revolved around her soul. As the earth to the sun.

Kagome lay totally exposed under Kouga gaze. Although she could not see him, she could feel his eyes on her. Kouga was glad at this moment that Kagome could not see him. He was shaking. He felt so totally overwhelmed by the depth of his feeling for her. He could feel the breath catching in his throat and he could hear her soft pants as she tried to deal with the state of arousal her body was in. The scent emanating from her womanhood was like a wave; catching him, knocking down, and washing totally over him. Her body, unbidden by her, was calling him, seducing him with it's sights and smells. Now he wanted a taste.

Feeling as though he was lost in a dream, Kouga parted her legs and moved to lie between them. He stretched his body out between her legs and began to kiss the inside of her thighs. He drew slow, lazy circles higher, and higher, and higher until he reached her nether lips. Instead of immediately parting them and delving inside, he contented himself for a moment by licking and kissing her outer lips. Kagome moaned, a higher pitch this time. Kouga finally ran his tongue up her slit, parting the lips slightly before he plunged his tongue inside. At this point Kagome bucked against him and he used one hand on her stomach to press her back down. He drew his tongue over the covering of the tiny jewel he was seeking. He continued licking at the morsel until her clitoris, totally aroused now, poked out at him. At this obvious sign of her desire, Kouga took the small pearl in his mouth and began sucking on it. At this point Kagome was thrashing her head from side to side, moaning loudly.

The wolf demon brought one hand up and wet his forefinger in the overflow from Kagome's body. He then proceeded to slowly insert that finger into her opening. At the same time he continued to lap and suck at her nub. When he felt she had completely adjust to his intrusion, he began to thrust his finger in and out in time with his licking. Kouga could feel how tight she was around just one finger, her inner walls flexing gently. Gods, this would be so wonderful when he could thrust his cock into that tight, wet opening and feel it flex around his essence. As Kagome spiraled higher, she could see colors in the darkness again, bright colors, pulsating with life. She continued to moan and pant and she could feel her body out of control with pleasure. Her stomach tensed and she could feel the roughness of Kouga's tongue passing over her swollen jewel. His finger, also rough, pushing into the wetness, thrusting. The sensation of friction against her inner walls was unbearably delightful. She could feel the tension coil tighter; she knew something was coming and she had to reach it.

The coil inside her snapped as Kouga reached up after wetting another finger and began gently rolling her nipples against his thumbs. All the while the constant pressure of his tongue could be felt along with the friction of his finger delving into her depths. This was too much sensation, Kagome was catapulted into her orgasm, screaming Kouga's name. Her body spasmed again and again, her mind going blank. All color disappeared for her in a white-hot flash. Kagome's muscles contracted over and over again around Kouga's finger, allowing him to feel the power of her orgasm. Kouga indulged himself, imagining once again his cock surrounded by those spasming muscles. He was now one step closer to his goal. He brought his tongue down to her opening and lapped up the leaking fluid, tasting the richness of Kagome's body.

Kagome was already falling into sleep, unable to even speak coherently. Her eyes refused to stay open and her mind was exhausted also. As surely as if he taken her completely, Kouga now filled her mind and her heart. She could think of nothing but what a gentle. loving, and seductive demon he was. She could not catch her breath and she continued to pant even as she fell into slumber, her last thoughts were of Kouga's loving face and strong arms.

Kouga felt her falling into dreams and was not surprised. Her body, mind, and soul had just gone through a completely consuming experience and she needed to rest. If fact, he had hoped she would sleep while he attempted to gain control of his body once again and compose their next conversation in his mind. He knew he needed to reassure her that this was all part of what he had in mind to show her and that she shouldn't be ashamed to do something like this with someone who loved her as unconditionally as he did.

The wolf prince knew now that Kagome tattooed his whole life, his entire being. His world was colored by her and the rest of his life would be also. The image of Kagome, spread out beneath him, gloriously nude, shining with an ethereal inner light and shyly blushing up at him would haunt him all of his days. Kouga knew there was no way he could ever surrender her now. He would not be able to live without her. More than at any other time he knew the true meaning of his life; to love this woman totally, allowing her to consume him and drive him to accomplish that which he had not even imagined yet.

With these final thoughts echoing in his head, Kouga stood, wrapped the blanket around Kagome and lifted her into his arms, picked up the basket, and with a final glance around the meadow illuminated by the twilight, headed for home.

.....Tattooed all I see. All that I am. All I'll be. Yeah.
