CHAPTER 23

Reunited

The clearing reflected the battle between between the two mikos. The tree that Kagome had been tied to had been turned to a pile of ash. Kagome's breathing was ragged as was Kikyo's.

“How?” Kikyo asked, eyes showing her anger.

Kagome stared at Kikyo defiantly. “I told you, being Inuyasha's mate has a few perks; a nice growth in my powers, not to mention, sex whenever I want it.” Kagome gave a broad smile when she said the last part.

Kikyo gritted her teeth in fury. “You whore.”

Kagome glared at her for a moment. Suddenly they both looked to the right of the clearing. “Inuyasha,” They said in unison.

Kikyo's soul collectors appeared and surrounded her. They wrapped around her body and lifted her into the air. “This is not the end. I will take Inuyasha to hell.”

Kagome watched as Kikyo floated away, thankful that their confrontation was over for now and that Inuyasha was on his way to her. A strange feeling shot through her body and Kagome began fall back.

Kagome fell back into the warm arms of a familiar person. “Kagome are you alright?” Inuyasha asked. He helped a wobbly Kagome to stand.

“Inuyasha,” Kagome whispered. Kagome's blurry vision began to clear and Inuyasha's face came back into focus. He looked grief stricken. Dark shadows hung below his eyes.

“Are you alright, Kagome?” Inuyasha repeated.

Kagome nodded. “Yes, I'm fine.”

Inuyasha smiled. “Good.” Inuyasha's hands dropped from Kagome's shoulders and he fell to the ground.

“Inuyasha!” Kagome cried out as she knelt down. She pulled his head into her lap and ran her hand along his cheek.

Kilala touched the grassy plain and Sango and Miroku quickly jumped off. They ran over to Kagome's side. Shippo had decided not to jump into Kagome's arms, she was too distressed at the moment. The three looked at Kagome and Inuyasha with worried faces.

Kagome looked up. Tears were streaming down his face but she smiled. “He's just sleeping,” she said, her voice was calm but shaky. They breathed sighs of relief.

.:8:8:8:8:8:8:8:8:8:.

Kagome sat by an unconscious Inuyasha. He was lying out across the ground with a blanket over his body. Miroku and Sango were sleeping next to each while Shippo had thought it better if he curled up in Kilala's fur.

They had walked for about an hour. Kagome wanted to put as much space as she could between that place and herself. Kilala had walked with Inuyasha on her back while the others walked. They all had been listening to Kagome's story and Sango did her best to comfort her. Miroku had mentioned how Inuyasha refused to stop until he found her and that he had passed out once before. But the thing that plagued Kagome's mind at the moment was when they told her Inuyasha's eyes flashed red.

Inuyasha's eyes only flashed red when his demon side started to completely take over and that was only when his life was in danger, but Inuyasha's life was never in danger. Kagome had been giving the topic some serious thought. Inuyasha's life may not have been in danger but hers was. Their mating was suppose to link them together, if one died the other would too.

Kagome growled out in frustration. She was starting to get a headache. Kagome looked down at the motionless body of Inuyasha. He had pushed himself to limits and beyond, just for her. He really did love her. She knew that but this situation only served to reinforce that fact.

“Kagome.”

Kagome's head snapped up as Inuyasha whispered out her name. She was hoping that he would wake but it was just him calling out in his sleep.

“Kagome. She's safe.”

Inuyasha's words caused fresh tears to start running from her eyes. Even unconscious, he cared about her. Kagome dropped head, her eyes closed.

Suddenly Kagome felt someone wipe away the tears. She lifted her head to find Inuyasha wearing small smile. His eyes were half open.

“Stop crying, wench.”

Kagome smiled and nuzzled Inuyasha's hand between her cheek and shoulder. “You're ok,” she sobbed quietly.

“As long as you're ok, I'm ok.” Inuyasha said weakly.

Kagome smiled and nodded. “Rest.” she commanded nicely.

Inuyasha closed his eyes. The steady rise and fall of his chest signaled that he was asleep. Kagome crossed her arms on Inuyasha's chest and laid her head down. She was soon sleeping too.

.:8:8:8:8:8:8:8:8:8:.

Inuyasha opened his eyes. It was bright out, probably midmorning. He felt some abnormal weight on his chest. He leaned up and found Kagome sleeping. He smirked. He looked over to see Miroku, Sango and Shippo not too far away, preparing breakfast.

Seeing him moving, they looked over. Before they could speak, Inuyasha put his finger to his lips in a silent shush. He carefully slipped from under Kagome and to his feet. He placed the blanket over the sleeping girl then walked over to the others. They all whispered greetings to each other.

“I'm going for a run,” Inuyasha said. They looked at him strangely. “Don't worry,” Inuyasha said while rolling his eyes, “Kagome will be able to find me.”

With that, Inuyasha had jumped off into the treetops. Inuyasha hopped from tree branch to tree branch, letting the wind whip across his face. The scent of water swirled around Inuyasha's nose. Deciding that he needed a bath, Inuyasha headed for the water source.

Inuyasha used the last tree limb he touched to propel himself in the air. Inuyasha soared into the air and saw a nice blue lake below him. In the middle of his descent, Inuyasha started to disrobe. His clothes dropped to the ground. His haori and undershirt landed near the shore but his hakama ended up somewhere in the trees.

A completely nude Inuyasha dropped, feet first into the lake, with a small splash. The cold water engulfed him and served in waking up his senses. Inuyasha's head broke the water's surface. He wiped the water from his eyes and leaned his head back. His silver mane fanned out in the water. As he floated there, Inuyasha's troubles floated to the back of his mind, even if it was just for the moment.

Inuyasha had to have been swimming for at least fifteen minutes. He decided he should get back to the others before Kagome woke up. Inuyasha swam over to the bank. He saw his haori and undershirt but remembered his hakama fell in the woods. Inuyasha groaned and quickly jumped from the water.

Before he could even take three steps, Kagome stepped from the trees and she didn't look too happy. Inuyasha quickly covered up with his haori. “Hi, Kagome.” Inuyasha said nervously.

“I wake up to find you gone. I was already stressed out about you and you add to it.” Kagome spoke angrily as she slowly approached the hanyou. Inuyasha started to stutter nervously. Suddenly a mischievous grin came across Kagome's face. From behind her back, she pulled Inuyasha's hakama. “Missing something?”

Inuyasha glared at her. “Give 'em up, wench.”

“No.”

“What?”

“I said no.” Kagome repeated sternly but still with her amused smile.

“And why not?” Inuyasha asked in an annoyed tone. She may have been having fun but he wasn't, he starting to get a little cold.

“Saves me the trouble of undressing you,” Kagome said. Inuyasha stared at her. Kagome tossed Inuyasha's pants back behind her. She slowly approached him. “I've missed you, Inuyasha. I've missed your face, your smell, your touch.”

Inuyasha stood there covering himself with the clothing he had left. His ears twitched constantly, enticed by the subtle sounds of seduction. And suddenly Inuyasha caught it, the faint smell of Kagome's arousal.

Kagome was now standing before him. She easily got him to drop his haori and undershirt. She ran her down Inuyasha's bare chest. “Inuyasha, do you love me?” Kagome whispered. Inuyasha nodded. “How much?”

“Do you even have to ask?” Inuyasha asked, sounding slightly surprised.

“I want to hear you say it.”

Inuyasha smiled. He gently took Kagome's face between his hands, staring deeply into her eyes. “I would give my life for you.”

“I know.”

“So why waste my time?” Inuyasha asked irritated.

Kagome pulled Inuyasha down to her lips. In an instant, she pressed tongue against his lips. With very little coaxing he opened his mouth. For a moment their tongues fought for dominance but in the end Kagome won their little battle. She knew that he was forfeiting; he wanted her to take control.

Kagome broke the kiss. “Was that a waste of your time?” Kagome asked mockingly as she rubbed against his erection.

Inuyasha smirked. “Uh-un.”

Kagome pushed Inuyasha to the ground. He laid there smiling. Kagome straddled Inuyasha and pulled her shirt off.

Inuyasha's conscience began to nag at him. “Kagome I don't think this is the right time for this. You've been through a―”

Kagome put a finger on the hanyou's lips, hushing him. “This is exactly what I need. I was away from you for what seemed like forever, Inuyasha, and I've missed you. I've missed everything about you.” Inuyasha smiled warmly. He nodded and relaxed against the ground, giving Kagome complete freedom over his body.

Kagome leaned down and lightly brushed her lips across his chest. As she headed up his body, she blew lightly on his nipple, earning a low growl.

Kagome found herself at Inuyasha's neck, more specifically, the mark that she had made. Smiling to herself, Kagome placed her mouth over the mark and Inuyasha's body instantly stilled. Kagome found his lack of movement odd so she decided to investigate further. She sucked.

Inuyasha eyes widened as Kagome gently tugged at his mate-mark with her teeth. His mouth slowly fell open and he stared at the world through half-lidded eyes.

The low groan that met her ears pleased Kagome. The sudden twitching of Inuyasha's leg shocked her. Kagome pulled away from Inuyasha's neck, to both their disappointment. She ran her fingers over the red, blotchy patch of skin. Kagome crashed into Inuyasha's lips with her own, trying to convey the desire she had for him.

Inuyasha waited anxiously but patiently under Kagome, allowing her to move her own pace. The pressure inside him was building and it was looking for a way out. He wanted to flip her over and pound into her, of course that was his youkai side. His human side wanted to caress her soul and give her all the time in the world. He was a man trapped in the middle.

Kagome broke the kiss and looked deep into Inuyasha's eyes. Not only could she see impatience in his eyes, she could feel it in his aura. Kagome had become more in tune with Inuyasha's feelings. She could sense the changes in his aura better than before and knew his feelings better than anyone else. She decided to tease him just a little more.

Kagome behind her and unhooked her skirt and tossed it off to the side. She gently rocked on top of Inuyasha. He groaned. Kagome rocked again, this pressing their bodies closer together. Inuyasha groaned louder.

Kagome went to grind against Inuyasha again but two clawed hands held her waist still. “Stop,” Inuyasha said breathlessly.

“What? Why?” Kagome whispered.

“Stop teasing me. I need you.” Inuyasha whined out.

Kagome's mouth suddenly became dry. She opened and closed it a few times. The tone of his voice, his plead. He never sounded so desperate even when asking for ramen. Kagome nodded. She took Inuyasha's hands in her own and led them behind her back. She guided him as they both unhooked her bra.

Inuyasha slipped his hands from under Kagome's taking the straps off her shoulders and down her arms. The thin piece of clothing was tossed to the side, quickly forgotten. Inuyasha leaned up and carefully drew circles around her nipple with a claw. He smelt her arousal spike. He flicked his tongue across an erect nipple. She shuddered but only slightly. He covered her breast with his mouth. Kagome moaned lightly as Inuyasha sucked gently while he used his hands to draw small circles on the small of her back.

Kagome pushed Inuyasha back down on the ground. With some minor difficulty, she removed her underwear. Inuyasha was smacked in the face by the scent of her desire. It was a wonderfully sweet smell; it had been a long time since he got the chance to bask in her scent. It was talking all his might to allow Kagome to be dominate. She was making it painstakingly slow and he had a feeling it was on purpose.

Kagome could feel a fire burning in her core. Not only that but she could feel Inuyasha's impatience, against her body and from his aura. She decided it was time to stop torturing the hanyou and herself. Kagome positioned herself over him, his tip rubbing against her entrance. She dropped down, letting his thickness be swallowed by her folds.

Inuyasha let a low growl. He starting bucking under Kagome as her pace slowly increased. His eyes rolled into the back of his head as he took both of her breasts in his hands, massaging with a gently ferocity. As the woman on top of him moved faster, Inuyasha let out quiet grunts to accompany Kagome's breathless gasps. Inuyasha knew she neared her end; he could smell and feel it. Kagome tightened around him and that sent him over the edge.

Kagome's breathless gasps soon became very audible moans and screams. Her pace sped up. Inuyasha quickly brought the woman down and clamped his mouth over hers, muffling her loud cries of passion. Even with the others so far away, they would probably hear. If they didn't, Shippo would be sure to notify them.

Kagome's movements slowed as she relaxed into Inuyasha's chest; they were both breathing heavily. Inuyasha ran his hands down Kagome's back.

Finding her voice, Kagome spoke. “Again,” she commanded sternly.

Inuyasha smiled. “I've got energy to spare. Being a hanyou has its perks, I could go till the sun sets but can you?”

Kagome rolled her eyes at Inuyasha's arrogant tone. 'Always bragging in one way or another.' “I said again and I mean again. Again and again and again. I'll tell you when I'm ready to stop.”

Inuyasha purposely sighed heavily. “My job is so time consuming, and after I'm done, I never get any credit.”

Kagome sucked her teeth as Inuyasha flipped her over on her back. “Never thought being dominated would feel so good,” Kagome whispered.

“Just wait,” Inuyasha said with a smirk.
