Chapter Eight: Kouga and Ayame

 

 

“Ayame, what are you doing here,” Kouga asked, a frown marring his handsome features. He did not have time to deal with the wolf princess. He had come to see Kagome. He be damned if this female would keep him from her.

 

“Kouga, nice to see you, too. If you've come to see Kagome, I'm afraid you can't at the moment.”

 

Disbelief filled Kouga's eyes, a faint smirk gracing his features. Him not able to see his woman. Yeah right. Who would dare to stop him, Ayame? The thought was laughable. He moved to pass the female demon, but was blocked. He tried again, only to once again be blocked. Sighing in annoyance and slight anger he looked at Ayame.

 

“What is the meaning of this, Ayame? Let me pass.”

 

“I'm sorry, Kouga, I can't do that.”

 

“And how do you propose to stop me?”

“By fighting you.”

 

Kouga burst out laughing. Anger filled Ayame's eyes. The next thing Kouga knew, he was flat on his back, Ayame smirking down on him. Anger quickly filled the wolf prince's eyes and he moved to get up, but was once again knocked to the ground. So she wanted a fight, did she? Well he would give her one.

 

Quickly flipping away from Ayame, Kouga got into a fighting stance. Ayame followed suit and waited for his attack. She didn't wait long. Kouga charged toward the female wolf, sending punches and kicks at her. Ayame blocked as best she could, but a punch caught on the side of her face, sending her flying a few feet into a tree. Immediately, Kouga pinned Ayame to the rough bark, his weight crushing her into the tree, one of his hands holding hers above her head while the other wrapped around her neck, squeezing.

 

“So you thought you would fight me. You are too weak to fight me.”

 

“K-Kouga, I c-can't breath. Loosen up,” Ayame croaked.

 

Kouga tightened his grip on Ayame's neck a moment before easing up, allowing the wolf princess to breath. Ayame took in great gulps of air, filling her abused lungs with oxygen. She couldn't believe Kouga had defeated her so easily, but he hadn't beaten her yet. She wasn't unconscious or dead, so she could still do her job. Slowly, a plan began to form in Ayame's mind.

 

Kouga looked down at the female pinned to the tree. Since when had Ayame started acting like a true wolf youkai? She had always been submissive in the past, even with all the training she had undergone. Then, suddenly, today she was openly challenging him. It didn't make sense. He was surprised by how easily he'd defeated her. He thought she was more skilled than that. Of course she hadn't had to use much of her training in the past. She was probably rusty.

 

Ayame noted Kouga's distracted expression. He seemed a million miles away. Perfect. Ayame arched her body into Kouga's, pressing her curves into the male. Kouga was jolted back to reality and loosened his hold slightly on the female. It was enough. Ayame skimmed out of Kouga's grip, dropping to the ground before sweeping his feet out from under him. Without giving him time to react, she pinned him to the ground, her legs straddling his powerful thighs, while she pressed her knees into his hands and pushed his shoulders to the ground, effectively immobilizing him.

 

Kouga looked up at the female wolf demon with surprise and just a little bit of respect. He had never guessed she could be so sly. Using her body to distract him like that was very clever. A slow grin started to spread across Ayame's face before it froze. She cocked her head as if she were listening to something only she could hear before swiftly rising and bounding off into the forest. Without thinking, Kouga ran after her.
