InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Rox's Livejournal Drabbles ❯ I'm Burning For You ( Chapter 20 )

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kagome mewled in her sleep. Her heart burned, as she watched InuYasha with Kikyou, telling her to let him protect her. The nightmare, based on memory, made her flip around in her sleep. Next to her, her husband woke at her movement.

 

“Kagome…?” InuYasha said softly.

 

The hanyou's wife opened soft, dark, tear filled eyes and looked up at him.

 

“You having a nightmare, koibito?”

 

Kagome nodded her head and buried her face in InuYasha's kosode clad chest. He closed his eyes and gently stroked her hair.

 

“It was the same one I always have,” Kagome mumbled into him. “That memory is burned into my subconscious, it seems.”

 

“Look at me Kagome,” InuYasha said, and she obeyed. “You are my wife now, and Kikyou is dead. Someday, I hope your subconscious will let it go.”

 

InuYasha tilted Kagome's tear stained face up to his and kissed her tenderly. Slowly the pain in her heart eased as another, better fire was lit. Passion ignited between them, a balm for all her fears and nightmares. This was something InuYasha and Kikyou had never shared - the love and love making between husband and wife.

 

As Kagome melted into the warmth and strength of InuYasha, she whispered in his ear.

 

“I'm yours, my true love, for now and for always.”

 

“And I am yours, never doubt it.”

 

`From now on, I swear, the only burning I will feel is my burning lust and love for you.' Kagome thought.

 

And so it was.
