‘Three months,’ she thought miserably. ‘3 fucking months. Every day the same. Chores, then pain. Chores then pain. I’m sick of having to wash his scent off me, and having to wash out what he put there. I’m tired of listening to Haruki, Kiyani, and Tae all talk about how great Master is. He’s a bastard; don’t they see it?’
"Shikari?"
Shikari jumped in alarm and snapped out of her thoughts, looking over at who had disturbed her. A girl with watery grey eyes surveyed her through ebony bangs as she clutched the terry cloth that concealed her body to her chest. The very same girl who had called for her earlier in the day. "Tae?"
Tae dropped the towel that she had wrapped around her body and lowered herself into the water. "You usually don’t take your baths until late. Why so early?"
"I…I…" Shikari tried to come up with an excuse as to why she was in the bath now, but could not think of any. Shame and pain was still burning deep within her.
"Shikari, what happens when you go into Master’s room at night?" Tae asked rather bluntly and abruptly and Shikari blushed.
"W-what? I–I clean up, Tae…"
"Kiyani cleans his room everyday. When Haruki does his laundry, she finds that they’re kinda sticky and they smell strange. They also have a weird residue on them. This is everyday. Kiyani always places clean sheets in his room, and makes sure everything is straightened before he goes to bed. Yet in the morning, everything’s out of order."
Shikari avoided Tae’s eyes as Tae gazed at her softly. "T-Tae…"
"Do you two have sex?" Tae asked softly, and Shikari’s eyes filled with tears.
"I–we–yes," Shikari whispered, looking down shamefully. She could come up with no excuse and truthfully, was in no state of mind to think of one.
"I see. How long has this gone on?"
"For…for three months, now."
Tae was quiet as she gazed at Shikari, not sure what to say. Didn’t Shikari just turn fourteen not too long ago? That was too young…her body was developed more than Tae’s, and Tae was nineteen, but still…even though the appearance was developed, that didn’t mean she was developed emotionally or mentally.
"Why…?" came Shikari’s confused whisper, and Tae looked up. Shikari looked as if she was struggling with something, and she brought her pale eyes up to Tae. She wanted answers, and Tae was the only adult in that castle she trusted.
"Why what?"
"Why does he go after me? I don’t understand…you and Haruki always used to talk about it like it feels good, but it doesn’t. Tae, it really doesn’t. At first it does, when he toys with me, but when he…when he pushes himself into me, it hurts…really badly…like I’m splitting apart. It always hurts…"
"You don’t want to have sex with Naraku, do you?"
"No!" Shikari said, shaking her head while lowering it to avoid eye contact. The shame was becoming too much to bear.
"He…he rapes you, then!" Tae gasped, gazing at Shikari in shock. Shikari kept her head down.
"Please don’t mention it to him or the others…I don’t want Kiyani and Haruki to know what he does to me…"
"But–"
"Please, Tae! No one!"
Tae saw the pleading look in Shikari’s eyes, mixed in with shame and pain. She slowly nodded her head, and Naraku opened the door to the bath. Tae shrieked and immersed herself into the water, and Naraku looked surprised.
"Tae, what are you doing here?" he asked, looking over at the girl.
"This is my usual time to take a bath, Master Naraku," she replied, averting her gaze.
"Leave me and Shikari alone, and you may return later."
Tae and Shikari both exchanged glances and Tae obediently nodded. She hoisted herself out of the water and wrapped the towel she had brought with her around her body, blushing when she realized that Naraku had been looking at her body. She walked out of the room with a final glance at Shikari, and Naraku brought his gaze to the young demon in the water, who tried to make herself appear as small as possible. He disrobed himself and stepped into the water, and Shikari huddled up against the wall in fear that he might approach her. She wasn’t expecting him to start bathing his body. She watched in silence until he was finished, and he walked over to her. She tried to shrink back, but was unable to as she had unwisely backed herself into a corner. He pulled her to him and she couldn’t find her voice to protest, but when he merely sat down and placed her trembling form in his lap, she became confused. He pulled her to his chest and cradled her wet body to his, inhaling her scent. She relaxed slightly, but was still tense in fear that he would change his mind in the middle of his embrace and take her again.
"Shikari," he murmured, nuzzling her hair.
They stayed that way for a while, until Shikari totally relaxed into the cuddle and simply sat there, reveling in the fact that he hadn’t hurt her. Maybe not tonight…she couldn’t help feeling hopeful as her head rested against his shoulder. Naraku lifted her head off his shoulder with a finger and kissed her forehead, trailing down to her lips and kissing them as well.
‘Maybe it’s just kissing this time…please let it be just kissing…’ she thought hopefully.
His tongue entered her mouth and explored it deeply, trying to engage her tongue as well, but to no avail. He pulled back and looked into her eyes, softly caressing her face as she stared at him wide-eyed, wary of his actions.
"Just this once…I wish you would participate…"
"It hurts me," she confessed, looking into his eyes as well. "I don’t like it because it hurts me."
He said nothing, just continued to gaze at her. Why did he feel this way about her? After he was finished with her, he didn’t want her to leave. He didn’t want her to cry while they had sex, he wanted to see her smile at him before, during, and afterwards. He didn’t want her to run away and wash his scent off her body. He wanted her to love him like he loved her, but…why was he feeling love towards her anyways? When he first approached her three months earlier, it was merely supposed to see if she was what he had been craving for. He wasn’t supposed to love her; it was her body he was supposed to desire. Not her entire being. Why couldn’t she be his wife?
He kissed her again, with all the secret love and passion he held for her, and she trembled at his touch. Why was it always her? What was so special about her?
‘Nothing,’ she thought viciously. ‘There’s absolutely nothing special about me…’
He moved her to face him, her legs draped around his waist as his arms wrapped around her. She began to respond slightly to the kiss, her hands resting themselves on his lean, yet well toned chest. He lifted her up and she felt the head of his member press against her, which made her break the kiss immediately.
"N-no!" she gasped, and he stared up at her with a strange look in his eyes. It made Shikari pause. That wasn’t lust…that was…was it? No! It couldn’t be…couldn’t be love…could it?
He pushed into her slowly and she whimpered, making him stop and look at her. She glanced up at him and saw that he wasn’t trying to hurt her this time. He eased in a little more, and she shut her eyes tight, biting her lower lip. Why did it always feel this way? Was it supposed to hurt the woman? Is that why when he was inside her, she felt nothing but discomfort?
When he finally finished burying himself into her, Shikari gave a breath of relief. It didn’t hurt as much as the other times; it felt a little better. He kissed her again and she responded, pressing closer to his body as he gave her time to adjust to the intrusion. This was so much more better than all those other times… He slowly pulled himself out, and pushed back in with the same slow rhythm. A little pain, but also…what was that slight tickling sensation? It felt strange; she’d never felt anything like it. He repeated his movement, and her eyes widened. It was pleasure! So it could feel good! What had changed?
"Master Naraku…" she whispered, not understanding why all of a sudden he was being gentle. What a difference it had made! He held her closer to him as he continued and her arms wrapped around him in an embrace. She arched on impulse, letting the warm feeling wash over her and he was glad that she was at least enjoying it. Even at this slow pace when he wanted nothing more than fast, hard strokes, it was nice. She moaned involuntarily and began moving herself without being aware of herself and Naraku groaned, holding onto her waist to guide her. He kissed her neck as she started a rhythm, slowly speeding up. "M-master…"
A wondrously warm feeling began to build within her lower stomach and Shikari trembled, wrapping her legs tightly around his waist and grinding harder against him. Was this what it was like for him? She moaned again, resting her head into the crook of his neck as she continued moving, her senses lighting up. It was like her whole body was on blissful fire! Every small touch sent a jolt through her system, as waves of pleasure rocked her body. This was how sex was supposed to be?
In the throes of passion, neither Naraku or Shikari had noticed that the door slid opened, or that someone stepped into the room. A girl with piercing ice blue eyes gasped and quickly covered her mouth to snatch the sound from the air, her eyes widening at the sight: Naraku and Shikari, hugging, moving, moaning, groaning. The water sloshed quietly around the squirming couple as they took no notice of the girl’s presence. Her eyes widen, she ran out of the room as quickly as she came, making sure to make as little noise as possible. She immediately sought out Tae.
"Tae! Tae! By the Gods, Tae! Come quickly!" she called, frantically searching for the older girl in the wing of the castle she knew Tae inhabited. She skidded to a halt just outside a door and began to beat upon it, continuing to shout for Tae.
The demon girl in question walked out of her room looking upset at the disturbance and glanced at the young Ice Demon, who was staring at her with wide eyes. "What is it, Kiyani?"
"Tae! Tae, I just saw--” The girl called Kiyani looked stricken for a moment and looked around to see if there were any eavesdroppers. Once she had convinced herself that no others where listening, she whispered at once, “Master Naraku and Shikari!”
Tae looked surprised. "What?! You saw them? Together?" she demanded, grabbing Kiyani by the arm tightly and steering her into her room to evade any possible snooping from the other servants. She looked troubled.
"Rutting!" Kiyani was hysterical. "When did this happen?! Are they seeing each other, or something?"
"No…Master Naraku and Shikari…they aren’t…"
"By the Gods, I don’t believe this! How long has it been going on?! Shikari’s only 14!!! What the hell is she doing having sex??!"
Tae seemed to come to a decision as she turned her gaze to Kiyani sternly. "It’s none of your concern. What Master Naraku does with Shikari is his business. Don’t speak a word of this to anyone."
Kiyani frowned, wondering why Tae hadn’t taken this news like she had. Didn’t she understand what she told her? Kiyani’s eyes widened in realization as she pointed a finger dramatically at Tae, gasping. "You knew about this!"
"Shut up, Kiyani, and do as I say! Now go to your room!"
The 16-year-old scowled at Tae before leaving begrudgingly. But she didn’t go to her room, she went to Shikari’s room instead. How could she not have noticed it? Naraku’s scent was all over in her room, and the looks he gave her when he thought no one was looking were looks that signified lust. Kiyani rolled her eyes as she sat on Shikari’s bed to wait for the small Fire Demon’s eventual arrival. ‘Of course they’re fucking each other,’ she thought scathingly, folding her arms as she grimaced jealously. ‘No wonder Shikari ‘blew’ up overnight.’
Shikari moaned loudly as wave after wave of indescribable pleasure literally rocked her body to ecstasy and she experienced her very first orgasm in a wonderful blanket of warmth. Naraku shuddered as he continued to move to gain his own release, and she then understood why he did it. If it felt anything like that to him, then she wouldn’t have blamed him for wanting it every night. It seemed addictive.
"Thank you, Shikari," Naraku murmured, holding her body close to his as exhaustion began to take its toll on him.
She blushed. She closed her eyes and remembered that even though he gave her that wonderful sensation that was still giving her a blissful high, he still raped her every night for the past three months. That was unforgivable, and all he just did now was make her body betray her. She’d never forget how she lost her virginity, how her horrid sex life began. He caused her nothing but pain, and she could never forget that. She pushed away from him and swam away, trying to rid herself of the seed he planted within her.
She passed a glance to him and hoisted herself out of the hotspring, wrapping a towel around her body and retreating to her room to shut herself in for the night.
Naraku sighed as he watched her scurry away. ‘At least she responded to me that time…’ he thought lazily, propping his arm up on the edge of the bath and resting his head on his open palm. He smiled maliciously.
"What’re you doing in my room?" Shikari asked Kiyani as she walked into her room, stopping and staring at the girl who was perched on her bed.
"I’ll ask the questions here," Kiyani replied, bringing her gaze from the ceiling she’d been staring at to Shikari while sitting up. "What were you doing, eh?"
"What do you mean?" Shikari asked, drying her hair as she searched for something to wear to bed.
"What were you doing, Shikari? In the bath room?"
Shikari blushed as she stopped dead while perusing her closet. "Wh-what?"
"What were you doing?" Kiyani repeated impatiently, standing up and pointing her finger in Shikari’s face. "And don’t lie!"
"I was bathing…"
"Liar! I saw you, Shikari! You were rutting with Master Naraku!"
"You--you saw?!" Shikari asked, horrified.
"Yes! How long has this been going on?! No wonder he doesn’t bother with going after women anymore; he has a whore right in the castle!" At these words, Shikari burst into sudden tears and buried her face into her hands. Kiyani looked startled as the accusatory expression slid from her face. "Why are you crying?!”
Shikari didn’t bother answering. The fact that Kiyani had referred to her as a whore had wounded her deeply, not to mention confirm her fears that that was what she had become since Naraku started acting on desires for her.
Tae ran into the room at the sound of Shikari’s cries and glared at Kiyani, who immediately jumped up and tried to escape the room so avoid Tae’s inevitable remonstrations. Shikari ran blindly into Tae’s arms and Tae transformed into her Wind form and closed the door with a burst of wind to stop Kiyani’s progress.
"Didn’t I tell you that this was their business!?" Tae yelled, her sharp gaze fixated on Kiyani’s now stubborn face. "Why is she crying like this?"
"I don’t know," Kiyani shrugged indifferently, leaning against the doorframe. "I confronted her, and she just started crying."
"She called me a whore!" Shikari sobbed, burying her face into Tae’s kimono. Tae glared in Kiyani’s direction, who looked nonchalant, yet surly.
"That’s what you are, right? Master Naraku’s little whore?"
"KIYANI, SHUT IT!!! NOW!!!" Tae screamed, making Kiyani withdraw slightly. "She’s not his whore! He forces himself on her every night! Do you know he took her virginity? Shikari doesn’t act as his whore, Kiyani, she’s a victim… Master Naraku rapes her every night."
Kiyani stood upright at this revelation and gazed at Shikari, who was still shaking with sobs in Tae’s arms. "What? But it looked like she was enjoying herself…like she…By the Gods, Shikari, he hurts you?" Shikari cried harder as her response and Tae tried to calm her down, rubbing and patting her back. Kiyani stumbled back and tears sprang to her eyes as well. "Shikari, I’m sorry! I didn’t mean to hurt your feelings! I didn’t know! I’m so sorry, please stop crying…"
Shikari sniffed and stopped her sobs, but the tears continued to fall. Tae wiped them away. "You ok now, sweetie?"
"Yes," Shikari whispered, looking up at Tae. "I’ll be alright."
Tae smiled her approval and gave Shikari a sleeping kimono to wear to bed. "Put this on, and get some sleep, ok?" Shikari nodded and accepted the kimono from Tae and walked into another room to change. Tae glared in Kiyani’s direction, ushering her out of the room. "You idiot," she hissed, making Kiyani step back from fright. "You just couldn’t leave her alone, could you? She’s still a child! She doesn’t even understand what he does to her!"
"She doesn’t?" Kiyani gasped, her hand covering her mouth.
"No! She doesn’t know anything…all she knows is pain…"
"But…how…how could he do something like that to someone…?"
"I don’t know…she says it’s been going on for three months."
"She turned fourteen three months ago," Kiyani pointed out, and Tae’s eyes widened in shock.
"Then…when he brought her here before her eleventh birthday…then…he…he’s been planning this from the very beginning? He was just waiting for her to get older…Gods, Kiyani…he’s been wanting her for the past three years!"
"What’s going on here?" a female voice asked, and both Tae and Kiyani jumped in alarm, turning around and staring at a girl with green eyes and long brown hair, who was staring at them suspiciously.. "Why are you guys standing outside Shikari’s room?"
"Er…no reason!" Tae said, taking Kiyani’s arm and leading her away. "We just met up at Shikari’s room, Haruki!"
The young Earth Demon watched them leave before turning her attention to Shikari’s room door, raising an eyebrow before continuing her way to her own room.
Shikari opened her room door quietly, peering out into the desolate hall. She double checked to make sure that no one was coming, and then shut her door, placing random heavy objects on the door to barricade it from possible intruders, namely Naraku. She then snuggled underneath her bed sheets and fell asleep, and her dreams were always of her freedom; one day being able to escape Naraku’s grasp and live freely. But they were only dreams...
"Shikari?"
Shikari jumped in alarm and snapped out of her thoughts, looking over at who had disturbed her. A girl with watery grey eyes surveyed her through ebony bangs as she clutched the terry cloth that concealed her body to her chest. The very same girl who had called for her earlier in the day. "Tae?"
Tae dropped the towel that she had wrapped around her body and lowered herself into the water. "You usually don’t take your baths until late. Why so early?"
"I…I…" Shikari tried to come up with an excuse as to why she was in the bath now, but could not think of any. Shame and pain was still burning deep within her.

Shikari avoided Tae’s eyes as Tae gazed at her softly. "T-Tae…"
"Do you two have sex?" Tae asked softly, and Shikari’s eyes filled with tears.
"I–we–yes," Shikari whispered, looking down shamefully. She could come up with no excuse and truthfully, was in no state of mind to think of one.
"I see. How long has this gone on?"

"You don’t want to have sex with Naraku, do you?"

"Please don’t mention it to him or the others…I don’t want Kiyani and Haruki to know what he does to me…"

"What’re you doing in my room?" Shikari asked Kiyani as she walked into her room, stopping and staring at the girl who was perched on her bed.
"I’ll ask the questions here," Kiyani replied, bringing her gaze from the ceiling she’d been staring at to Shikari while sitting up. "What were you doing, eh?"
"What do you mean?" Shikari asked, drying her hair as she searched for something to wear to bed.
"What were you doing, Shikari? In the bath room?"
Shikari blushed as she stopped dead while perusing her closet. "Wh-what?"
"What were you doing?" Kiyani repeated impatiently, standing up and pointing her finger in Shikari’s face. "And don’t lie!"
"I was bathing…"
"Liar! I saw you, Shikari! You were rutting with Master Naraku!"
"You--you saw?!" Shikari asked, horrified.
"Yes! How long has this been going on?! No wonder he doesn’t bother with going after women anymore; he has a whore right in the castle!" At these words, Shikari burst into sudden tears and buried her face into her hands. Kiyani looked startled as the accusatory expression slid from her face. "Why are you crying?!”
Shikari didn’t bother answering. The fact that Kiyani had referred to her as a whore had wounded her deeply, not to mention confirm her fears that that was what she had become since Naraku started acting on desires for her.
Tae ran into the room at the sound of Shikari’s cries and glared at Kiyani, who immediately jumped up and tried to escape the room so avoid Tae’s inevitable remonstrations. Shikari ran blindly into Tae’s arms and Tae transformed into her Wind form and closed the door with a burst of wind to stop Kiyani’s progress.
"Didn’t I tell you that this was their business!?" Tae yelled, her sharp gaze fixated on Kiyani’s now stubborn face. "Why is she crying like this?"
"I don’t know," Kiyani shrugged indifferently, leaning against the doorframe. "I confronted her, and she just started crying."
"She called me a whore!" Shikari sobbed, burying her face into Tae’s kimono. Tae glared in Kiyani’s direction, who looked nonchalant, yet surly.
"That’s what you are, right? Master Naraku’s little whore?"
"KIYANI, SHUT IT!!! NOW!!!" Tae screamed, making Kiyani withdraw slightly. "She’s not his whore! He forces himself on her every night! Do you know he took her virginity? Shikari doesn’t act as his whore, Kiyani, she’s a victim… Master Naraku rapes her every night."
Kiyani stood upright at this revelation and gazed at Shikari, who was still shaking with sobs in Tae’s arms. "What? But it looked like she was enjoying herself…like she…By the Gods, Shikari, he hurts you?" Shikari cried harder as her response and Tae tried to calm her down, rubbing and patting her back. Kiyani stumbled back and tears sprang to her eyes as well. "Shikari, I’m sorry! I didn’t mean to hurt your feelings! I didn’t know! I’m so sorry, please stop crying…"
Shikari sniffed and stopped her sobs, but the tears continued to fall. Tae wiped them away. "You ok now, sweetie?"
"Yes," Shikari whispered, looking up at Tae. "I’ll be alright."
Tae smiled her approval and gave Shikari a sleeping kimono to wear to bed. "Put this on, and get some sleep, ok?" Shikari nodded and accepted the kimono from Tae and walked into another room to change. Tae glared in Kiyani’s direction, ushering her out of the room. "You idiot," she hissed, making Kiyani step back from fright. "You just couldn’t leave her alone, could you? She’s still a child! She doesn’t even understand what he does to her!"
"She doesn’t?" Kiyani gasped, her hand covering her mouth.
"No! She doesn’t know anything…all she knows is pain…"
"But…how…how could he do something like that to someone…?"
"I don’t know…she says it’s been going on for three months."
"She turned fourteen three months ago," Kiyani pointed out, and Tae’s eyes widened in shock.
"Then…when he brought her here before her eleventh birthday…then…he…he’s been planning this from the very beginning? He was just waiting for her to get older…Gods, Kiyani…he’s been wanting her for the past three years!"
"What’s going on here?" a female voice asked, and both Tae and Kiyani jumped in alarm, turning around and staring at a girl with green eyes and long brown hair, who was staring at them suspiciously.. "Why are you guys standing outside Shikari’s room?"
"Er…no reason!" Tae said, taking Kiyani’s arm and leading her away. "We just met up at Shikari’s room, Haruki!"
The young Earth Demon watched them leave before turning her attention to Shikari’s room door, raising an eyebrow before continuing her way to her own room.
Shikari opened her room door quietly, peering out into the desolate hall. She double checked to make sure that no one was coming, and then shut her door, placing random heavy objects on the door to barricade it from possible intruders, namely Naraku. She then snuggled underneath her bed sheets and fell asleep, and her dreams were always of her freedom; one day being able to escape Naraku’s grasp and live freely. But they were only dreams...
