CHAPTER SEVEN

SUBMISSION

(WARNING: A tinie tiny bit of non-con. Credit for the idea of bringing out Inuyasha's beast belongs to Ravyn Skye and her story 'Beautiful: An Adventure in Parenthood'. Thanks for the permission, girl.)

 

The world was darkening beneath the grip around his throat and there was nothing he could do. Everything was beginning to feel so far away. He couldn't breathe, but even now, that didn't seem to be all that important. At least, he wasn't in pain. In fact, the fuzzy darkness was fairly nice.

"That's right, Inuyasha," Sesshoumaru purred as Inuyasha's eyes glazed over. "Give me your beast."

The thudding of Inuyasha's heart slowed beneath the hand he held on his son's chest. Sesshoumaru was fairly certain that Inuyasha's blood would not allow him to die. Nevertheless, he had to bring out the beast and this was the only way he knew to accomplish that goal. There was one thing that he certainly hoped; that the beast would be reasonable. He truly didn't want to take matters to their extreme.

"Come out, come out, where ever you are...coward," he taunted.

Sesshoumaru frowned as the thudding in Inuyasha's chest was reduced to almost nothing, yet, the beast refused to rise. 'Must he actually die for that thing to rise from its slumber?' A strong pulse of youki alerted him to the fact that he was about to get what he wanted. There was a snarl and gnashing of teeth before Inuyasha opened red-eyes to stare at him.

"Release me!" the beast hissed.

"Hn, you will submit to your father," Sesshoumaru growled.

"Father abandoned us, died. Release me!" the beast growled and snarled.

As the beast began to struggle, Sesshoumaru snarled in return. "I am your father and you will submit to me!"

"Never! You're not father, not pack!"

Sesshoumaru mentally rolled his eyes. Whether or not he could convince Inuyasha of their relationship, he would force the boy to submit. He needed to be pack and under his direct instruction and protection. If this was what he needed to do in order to accomplish that goal, so be it.

"Nevertheless, as your elder and alpha, you will submit to me."

Rather than answering, the beast renewed its efforts to break free of Sesshoumaru's hold.

"You leave me no choice," Sesshoumaru growled and loosened his hakama. He flipped Inuyasha onto his belly and yanked the red cloth from his ass. "I'll give you one more opportunity to submit."

"Fuck you!"

"As you wish, but I'll be the one doing the fucking." Sesshoumaru smirked and reached around to grab Inuyasha's dick. 'Hm, it's good having two hands again.' Sesshoumaru played his fingers over the soft flesh, tugging gently at it until it began to thicken.

"Get off," the rogue growled and bucked against Sesshoumaru, which didn't help the creature's situation in the slightest.

Sesshoumaru ground his erection into Inuyasha's ass. "Submit and I won't be forced to do this!"

"Never!"

Sesshoumaru sighed and pulled back his hips. There would be no preparation, no attempts to make the experience less painful. In one swift move, he stretched the crescent moon and buried himself inside of Inuyasha.

"Ah!" the beast screamed then hissed.

"Submit! Now!"

There was no answer, only further struggling. Sesshoumaru huffed and thrust again. He was taking no pleasure from forcing his son, but it was the only way for the beast to submit, and to later realize that his father only wanted his comfort and that he would be protected. Another thrust and the beast whined and his fight began to dwindle. Sesshoumaru rewarded him by, once again, manipulating the soft organ that he held in his hand. A shiver wracked the body beneath him and he gentled his next thrust.

As Sesshoumaru continued his manipulations and began a rhythm meant to give pleasure rather than punish, the beast began to reciprocate his thrusts. The erection within his hand hardened and dripped with the nectar produced by arousal. Sesshoumaru was pleased that they were making progress.

"Do you see now?" he murmured into the beast's ear then licked and suckled at the furry tip. His free hand caressed his son's chest then played with the little pink buds. "It is better to have your father's favor than his displeasure."

The struggles of the beast had long since ceased and it whined then pushed back against him, begging for more, begging for release.

"Do you recognize me as your Alpha? Do you submit?" Sesshoumaru purred then sucked the other downy ear into his mouth, nibbling with his lips and stroking with his tongue. When the beast merely grunted, Sesshoumaru thrust then repeated his questions. "So be it," he purred again.

Determination settled into Sesshoumaru's very bones and he made it a point to bring the beast to the edge of release then to deny said release. His thrusts were first lazy then increasing in strength and speed, his stroking of the hard organ in his hand following in kind. Over and over again, he tormented his son until the body beneath him was shaking with a need so intense that it could not control itself.

"Please, please," the beast whimpered.

"Submit to me and you will have your release," Sesshoumaru whispered and licked the ear he'd been punishing with his mouth and tongue. The furry head nodded, but it wasn't enough. "You must speak your assent."

"This one submits," it whined.

"To whom do you submit?" Sesshoumaru questioned and held his breath. There had to be no room for refusal later.

"This one submits to Sesshoumaru...please..." it trailed off.

Sesshoumaru took a triumphant and satisfied inhale of air. He would have his son, his proof of his father's approval of his mating with Izayoi, and a piece of her would always remain with him. His chest warmed at the thought. All of these years spent on revenge and hatred could now come to an end. He wrapped one arm around his son and gave him all the warmth there was to be had from his once cold heart.

"You are mine now," he murmured then rapidly pumped his aching shaft into Inuyasha, following with the stroking of his hand along Inuyasha's erection. With the long withheld pleasure of release and the frantic friction provided by Sesshoumaru's hand and body, they both came with the howls of pack bonding.

Inuyasha hadn't even ceased convulsing when Sesshoumaru threw his pelt to the side and rolled them over to lay on its soft fur then kicked off his hakama. He removed Inuyasha's so they could have more skin to skin contact. Before it was all said and done, he would have his son drenched in his scent. He was still pulsing inside of the smaller body when he wrapped his legs around Inuyasha's. Now, all he had to do was wait.

Eyes watering and nearly choking on her own saliva, Kagome covered her nose and mouth while she inched her way inside of Totosai's odd habitat. The thing appeared to be the skeleton of some giant bug youkai, though she really couldn't tell what kind it had been. That wasn't so disturbing though. What was really giving her problems was the sweltering heat and suffocating smell of sulfur. Nevertheless, she wouldn't be deterred. Taking a deep breath through her sleeve, she steeled herself and dropped her arm.

"Totosai!" she called out. She pulled her sleeve back up over her face. When no one answered, she called again. Receiving no answer, she continued forward. Soon, she could hear the sound of metal clanging against metal. The front cavern was larger than it had appeared from the outside and she had walked several yards before she spotted the sword smith.

"Eh, Totosai...Totosai!" she called.

The old youkai just kept pounding away. In her frustration, Kagome huffed through her sleeve and stepped forward on the uneven stone of the cave floor. Unfortunately, her shoe caught on a rough edge and sent her falling forward...right into Totosai's back.

"Gah!"

"Kyah!"

Totosai's back was as hard as the stone beneath her feet and Kagome found herself knocked back onto her bottom.

"What!? Who are you, girl, and what do you want!?" Totosai exclaimed.

"Eh, Totosai, it's me, Kagome, remember?" she asked patiently while she managed to regain her feet.

The youkai sniffed in her direction. "What's a Kagome creature?"

Kagome sighed and tried to think of something that would jog his memory. "I'm the girl that Tetsusaiga protects," she said with a sweet smile.

Large, bulging eyes squinted at her while Totosai stroked his chin. "Ah, yes! Now I remember! Has that boy broken my poor Tetsusaiga again!?"

"No, no, no," she reassured him, waving her hand. "I just have some questions of a personal nature."

"Well, sit down, girl. What is it you want to know?"

Kagome sat down and blushed. As she began to describe her circumstance in a halting manner, she wrung her hands and hoped that Totosai would tell her that everyone had been wrong. After all, Sesshoumaru had pretty much rejected Inuyasha. So, why should he care?

Finally, Totosai scratched his head and spoke up. "That whelp mated you without his elder's permission?"

With a sinking feeling in the pit of her stomach, Kagome nodded and Totosai shook his head.

"Inuyasha is going to die. That's all there is to it," Totosai declared.

Kagome gasped and then remembered, 'Totosai has been wrong about that before!'

"Well, I don't believe you!"

"Eh, believe what? Did I say something?" Totosai looked around the room as though he couldn't remember where he was.

"Totosai," Kagome scolded. "Inuyasha isn't going to die just because he mated me!"

"Oh, why would you say that!? Of course not!”

Kagome groaned. "Then way did you say it?!"

"Say what?"

"That Inuyasha is going to die!"

Kagome waited while Totosai scratched his nearly bald head and hummed.

She waited while he stared at the ceiling and hummed.

She waited while he tugged on his scraggly goatee and hummed.

Finally, she'd had enough. "Totosai! Why would you think that Inuyasha would die because of mating me?"

"Oh, ah, hm..."

Kagome dropped her head into her hands. Then, to her surprise, he actually continued.

"Well, has he acknowledged Sesshoumaru as his alpha?"

"Oh great. Just the questions I need," Kagome groaned and lifted her face. "Of course not! Inuyasha doesn't bow to anyone, especially someone who's always wailing on him!"

"Then he'll die. Sesshoumaru will kill him," Totosai stated and confirmed it with a nod.

"What makes you think that Sesshoumaru could kill Inuyasha? He hasn't been able to yet," Kagome huffed indignantly.

"Sesshoumaru has been toying with him. It wouldn't have been honorable to kill a child. However, with Inuyasha mated, he has declared himself an adult. Kids these days; can't tell 'em anything," Totosai grumbled and rolled his bulbous, beady eyes.

"So, let me get this straight. Sesshoumaru will kill Inuyasha if Inuyasha doesn't submit, right?" She'd hear him out, even if she didn't believe them.

"Yup."

"What about me!?"

"To the winner go the spoils!" Totosai declared.

"Yeah, right; like I'm just some possession. He can't do that!" Kagome exclaimed.

"Oh yes, he can," Totosai stated imperiously.

"No, he can't!" Kagome argued.

"Can, too!" Totosai retorted.

"Can not!"

A stinging burnt the side of Kagome's neck and she automatically slapped at it.

"Nice to taste you again, Lady Kagome. You are especially delicious today," came the garbled voice of Myoga, the flea. His body popped out from its squashed state while he drifted down into the palm of her hand.

"Oh, Myoga. I'm so sorry. I didn't know it was you!" Kagome apologized as she caught the Inuyasha's cowardly retainer. As soon as Myoga landed, Kagome hit him up with questions. "Did you hear what we were talking about?"

"Of course, My Lady," Myoga respectfully replied. His respect for her was one of the few reasons that Kagome liked Myoga. He always treated her with some modicum of respect.

"Is it true, what Totosai is saying?" she asked with hope shining in her eyes.

Myoga folded his several arms together and lifted his nose in the air as though he were about to impart the secrets of the universe. "Um, well, not entirely. If Inuyasha could bring himself to acknowledge Sesshoumaru as his alpha, everything would be fine; no death or dismemberment required." He smiled, happy to give Kagome some good news. Then, his smile turned into a frown. "Then again, Inuyasha isn't always the brightest tool in the shed. At this point, if he doesn't submit, Sesshoumaru probably will kill him."

"Well, I don't believe he can kill Inuyasha," Kagome huffed. 'Traitors! '

"Regardless, she'll have to mate with Sesshoumaru, or he'll stalk her til the day she dies," the old sword smith quite randomly interjected.

"Now, wait just a minute! If Inuyasha dies—which he won't—and if he submits, I still have to sleep with Sesshoumaru?"

"Yup!" Totosai answered without batting an eye.

"But...Totosai!" Kagome whined. She couldn't believe that she would still be forced to have sex with Sesshoumaru, even if Inuyasha did submit.

"He's right, Lady Kagome. Inuyasha went too far this time," Myoga offered.

"Oooh, where were you when Inuyasha needed to learn this stuff!?" she accused Myoga. "You should have taught him!"

"Well...you see..." Myoga hedged while sweating and backing away. "We never knew he would live long enough to..."

"You what!? I can't believe you have so little faith in him, Myoga! Argh! I'm surrounded by idiots!" Kagome ranted.

Tossing Myoga at Totosai and shooting to her feet, Kagome stomped toward the mouth of the cave, only to be met by a very strange sight. She froze, too speechless to ask what was going on. In fact, for some odd reason, she felt as though she should run for the hills...screaming, but her concern for Inuyasha had her glued to the spot. Inuyasha was limping, his ears plastered to his head, and he wouldn't look at her. However, that wasn't the weirdest part. Sesshoumaru was with him, and his fluffy thing had wrapped itself around Inuyasha's waist. Not only that, Sesshoumaru's lips were curved upward at the corners, giving him an appearance that Kagome likened to the cat that ate the canary.

'Smug jerk. What did he do to Inuyasha?'

Sesshoumaru turned an intense gaze on the girl. Half the battle had been won. Now, it was time to put into play a strategy to win her cooperation. He wasn't some cretin that would take her against her will. No, he'd had plenty of time to come up with a plan. His eyes slid to the old sword smith and he noticed Myoga, sitting on Totosai's shoulder, sweating like the coward he was.

"You failed in your responsibilities, flea," he snarled. "Also, I am certain you knew the exact relationship between me and my so-called `brother'. "

Kagome blinked at the strange statement while both Myoga and Totosai sweated rivers.

"Eh? What's going on? Why are all of you here?" Totosai asked and scanned the room.

Sesshoumaru would swear that the old coot frequently feigned senility in order to prevent losing his head. If Sesshoumaru didn't leave soon, he knew that was exactly what was going to happen. In order to avoid such a thing to one of his father's long time friend, he decided it was time to leave.

"Come," he ordered and his pelt stretched out to wrap around a squeaking Kagome. Too quickly for her to protest, he yanked her against Inuyasha and took off on his cloud of youki, nearly losing control when her fertile scent surrounded him.

'Damn,' he swore and increased their speed, hoping that the wind would sweep away the scent.

The shock of current circumstances had stolen away any protest that Kagome would have made, and Inuyasha was simply attempting to survive. He'd given in to his father. 'I can't believe it. Definitely need one of Kagome's mirrors,' he thought, his hopes picking up his spirit. They were dashed when he realized that it wouldn't matter. He had submitted. Rather, his beast had and that was enough. Now, instincts would never allow him to rebel against Sesshoumaru. He was effectively a prisoner inside his own skin. 'At least, he hasn't attacked me. In fact, he has been...affectionate?' That thought made him shiver in revulsion. He'd rather have the familiar brutality than the creepy affection.

Misinterpreting the shiver that ran through his son, Sesshoumaru tightened his fur. It was now his responsibility to see that the boy received proper care. He pulled Inuyasha closer. Surprisingly, he was thrilled that he had a son, especially since Inuyasha had finally submitted. A part of his belated mate lived on in Inuyasha and the boy was now an official pack member, no longer a renegade. The corners of his mouth quirked upward and he almost grinned. It wasn't as though he'd given up the right to be the only one to take Inuyasha's life. No other creature had that right. His eyes narrowed and the corners of his lips turned down. Any creature that tried would quickly find themselves nothing more than a pool of bubbling, green acid. That thought put the quirk back on his lips.

'Just let them try,' he thought sadistically and cracked his knuckles.
