Chapter 6
When Lillith opened her email that morning. She knew there was trouble. There were sixteen messages from Akiko.
She was very upset. Her father wouldn't let her go to the Spring formal with the boy she liked. He told her he was to old for her and she wasn't permitted.
The last email is what brought the panic on. It said she had found a way to America, and she was running away. She wanted to live with her Aunt Lillith.
Lillith hit panic mode. She emailed Kagome and Sesshomaru, but it was late in Japan. She called her Japanese publisher and told him to find one of them and to have them call her. It was an emergency.
She woke John and put him on the phone, putting out feelers. She was getting ready to make another call when her cell phone rang.
"Yea.", she answered, abruptly.
"Lillith, it's Sesshomaru. What is the emergency?", he demanded.
"I got an email from Akiko. It claims she is on her way here. That she can't live with her father any longer.", she said. "If it's true. She's in America now. She can't make it to me. Akiko doesn't know what my life is like, none of you do.", she was fighting to hold back tears.
"Let me call Inuyasha and Kagome. Then, I'll call you back.", he said.
"Ok.", she said, hanging up.
Fifteen minutes later the phone rang again. It was Sesshomaru. "Akiko was supposed to spend the night at a friend's house, but when Kagome called they hadn't seen her. Inuyasha went to her room and found the note. She's on her way to you.", he said.
"I have people looking for her now. They will grab her if they see her. They know not to hurt her in any way.", she said.
"I'm on my way. What is your address? I want to know what you meant about your life.", he demanded.
Lillith sighed and gave in, telling him to bring someone that he could trust to watch his back. "Well, there goes my chances. He's going to freak at all these gang members who come and go all day.", she thought. She closed her eyes to stop the tears that suddenly appeared there.
She took a deep breath and straightened her shoulders. These people had been there for her, when she needed them. She won't act like they are nothing now. "If he didn't understand that then fuck him.", she thought.
Sesshomaru hung up thoroughly confused. "Why would I need someone with me? What was his niece walking into?", he thought. He sighed picked up the phone, made some calls and left for the airport.
24 hours later********************
The limousine pulled into the driveway, amid the tricked out suv's, and low riders sitting there. Sesshomaru saw Lillith appear from around the side of the large two story farm house. She was wearing jeans , white wife beater with a red shirt over top of it, black knee-length hiking boots completed the ensemble.
She bowed to them as they alighted and said, "Welcome to my home. She has been located and will be here in a couple of hours. I wanted time for you to get here, before I had her brought here."
Sesshomaru nodded and introduced Koga and Kagura to her. Kagura looked from Sesshomaru to Lillith, then gave Lillith a venomous look.
Inuyasha looked at her strangely, "How is she? Is she ok?"
Lillith laughed, "She is fine. I'm just making sure that she learns a lesson from this. Two young men, about the age of the guy she wanted to date, have her. She has seen their faces and knows how old they are. I want her to see, that you don't have to be old to be dangerous."
She led them to the back of the house, where there was a patio. Tables were spaced around, and many filled with men sitting around drinking and smoking marijuana. Young women ran around in tiny outfits, some sitting with men, others waiting on them. Rap music played in the background, heads bobbing in time to the beat. All seemed to be wearing the same color and knew each other quite well. She stopped in front of a table where a smallish white man, he had blue eyes and dish-water blond hair sat.
"John this is Inuyasha, Sesshomaru, Koga, and Kagura. Inuyasha is Akiko's dad.", she introduced him. "Everyone this is John. He's my assistant.", she said.
"More like her bitch. She won't tell you that she has a kept man, and she won't make an honest man of me. Just keeps me here, so I am available when she needs me.", he laughed.
"John, you are an ass. Why would I marry you? You would have to have your man on the side. Then, where would I be? Still frustrated.", she grinned at him.
"Well, you could always have your own back door man.", He sent a sly smile to Sesshomaru.
"But John, I've told you a million times before the only reason I would marry you is for your body. If I can't have that, it's not worth my time.", she snorted at him. Then both burst into peals of laughter.
When she stopped laughing she said, "Please, sit down. Would you like something to eat or drink? I'm sure one of the bitches will get it."
They all took a seat. "Bitches?", Koga asked.
She looked at all of them, "Welcome to my world. You are about to get a taste of gang life. I told you that you didn't know me. These are my peeps, and I will do anything for them. I owe them a lot, they took care of me, when no one else would or could. "
Sesshomaru was stunned, now he could see why she never invited the girls for a visit. She was hiding this part of her from them. "I guess we all have our own secrets.", he thought. Wondering for the first time how she would react to the fact that he was a demon.
Koga was in lust. He wanted this woman, she could be the alpha bitch he was looking for. He caught her eye, "So tell me, have any of your peeps laid claim to you?"
She gave him an icy glare. Spitting out with a venomous tone, "Not interested." Koga looked as if he had been slapped.
John burst into laughter. Wiping his eyes, he said, "She TOLD you." He winked at Sesshomaru, knowing that if he were to say something like that he might get a surprisingly different answer, although this cold fish would need some incentive to make his move. "Now, I know you love me, Lillith. To turn down such a fine specimen.", he pretended it had awed him.
Again his eyes went to Sesshomaru, "Now all I have to worry about is you. Are you going to take my girl away?" Sesshomaru gave him a look of pure ice, as if preparing to kill him.
"John, you are walking where angels fear to tread. I would suggest you leave things as they are and not ask questions like that.", Lillith warned him. Her own eyes, an icy green, staring at Sesshomaru, as if daring him to try it.
Her gaze moved to Kagura, when her low growl reached her ears. "Bitch, I suggest you stay out of this. You'll bring down a world of hurt. Take a good look around.", she said quietly.
Kagura looked around and noticed that they were the center of attention, many of the men's hands reaching inside their clothing. Her eyes flew back to Lillith. "Kindly remember who's yard you are in and act accordingly.", Lillith's tone was filled with venom, her own hand inside her shirt.
John grabbed Lillith's arm, "Don't start trouble on my account." He batted his eyes at her.
"John stop being an ass, before I decide to treat you like my bitch, and put you in your place.", her voice took on a dangerous tone. John had the grace to blush, and apologize.
She sat back in her chair and took on a relaxed attitude. The men seated around them visibly relaxed as well.
Lillith looked at Inuyasha, "Now you see why I've never invited your daughters to visit me or your wife for that matter. They'd get chewed up and spit out. I wouldn't want them hurt like that."
Inuyasha grinned at her, "Kagome would be able to hold her own with these guys, but I appreciate the fact that you kept them away." Lillith gave him an odd look, but he didn't respond.
"What I would like to know is how you wound up here?", Sesshomaru asked.
She gave him a cold little smile and said, "My parents died and I'm the product of child welfare services. I was placed with a little old woman, who did the best she could, but the streets beckoned and I answered."
"Hn, That's a real nice way of putting it sweetie, and it's not what you told me. Owww, you bitch, you kicked me.", John said. He looked at her and blew her a kiss.
"John, my life is my own business and no one else's. I have never laid a hand on you in all the years I have known you. As much as I love you, if you breath one word, I will kill you." , her voice was quiet and held a warning tone. John visibly blanched, sat back and kept quiet as he was told.
Sesshomaru was stunned. "He couldn't see this woman as a product solely of the streets. There was more to her than that.", he thought. His curiosity was now prodding him, it wanted to know more. He had to figure out this puzzle named Lillith McFadden.
An hour later, as everyone was sitting chatting, a young black male came and whispered in Lillith's ear. Her head snapped up and she looked in time to see a tall, thin white male come around the corner.
