Passion's Promise

`Her lips are so soft.' Inuyasha closed his eyes and returned her tender kiss.

Silence. Only the sensation of her lips against his. A moment, unnoticed, lost to the passage of time.

The black-haired Inuyasha blindly brought his hands up to gently rest his fingers on Kagome's cheeks. He tenderly lifted her face with the palms of his hands. Her skin was so soft and warm. Her taste and scent put him at ease in a way he'd never known possible. If he could have, he would have wrapped her around his body and soul like a thick warm blanket.

 

She parted her lips, moving deeper into their kiss. Her breath quickened and warmth rushed to her face. She felt Inuyasha slide fingers upward to comb through long black her hair. His touch sent tingling heat racing through her body. The sensation increased ten fold when he took hold of her head and gently pulled her closer. His tongue teased the soft wet inner fold of her lips. She was entranced by the smooth texture that slid along her tongue and around her teeth. The gentle caresses inside her mouth had warmth pooling in her stomach and prompted her to engage him more fully. She slid her hands up the front of his Kimono to clutch his chest. A burning heat that seemed to suck the breath from her rose between them. She vaguely wondered if this was having the same effect on him.

`She doesn't understand what this could mean,' Inuyasha worried as his feelings intensified. He tried to suppress his growing desire. He slid his hands down to her shoulders and gently pushed her away then touched his forehead to hers.

“Kagome?” He waited for a response.

`Has he changed his mind? I don't think I could handle that,' thought Kagome and her chest tightened at the distinct possibility.

“Yes, Inuyasha?” She gazed into his charcoal eyes darkened by the night.

“What about tomorrow, and the day after that, and the day after that?”

 

His heart ached hoping this was not just because he was human. He did not want to face rejection once he returned to his hanyou form. Her sketches of his transformation played through his mind. He knew that the sketches of his angered face showed his efforts to keep her distant from him, despite the desire in his hanyou heart. But, did she know that? Did she know that nothing could change his love for her?

“What do you mean?” she asked, not wanting to scare him away with her hope that they would always be together. At this moment, he had the power to break her, perhaps to the point of no hope for recovery.

“Kagome…” he sighed, struggling to say the right words. He had never been good with words. Ineptitude could cost him everything. It took everything he had to put voice his need. Rejection would kill him. “I can't do this if it is only for one night or only for the times when I am human. Do you understand what I am saying?”

He studied her face, trying to glean something from her reaction. Her eyes showed some hesitation. `Is she afraid?'

“Inuyasha, do you mean that this is forever?”

“Yes.” He stared intensely into her eyes, attempting to impress upon her the significance of what he was trying to convey.

“We don't have to if it's not what you want.” She would never push him into something he didn't want and this was so strange and new. It was as though he had made a leap that she could never have imagined possible for her the gruff outcast who had barely accepted any form of intimacy. As was her habit when she was nervous, Kagome fidgeted with her fingers, staring down at her hands.

“I want to, but do you?” His right hand gently came down over her fidgeting fingers.

“But will you want to…after you return to your other form?” She knew that Inuyasha was more open and sensitive while in his human form. Having him love her like this now was wonderful, but what she considered his true form, wasn't quite as soft.

“Yes, and you haven't answered my question,” he reminded her.

“I have wanted to for longer than you could imagine,” admitted Kagome with a heartfelt sigh.

 

`If anything could cause her to back down, it has to be the visions of my demon side. Even I don't know if I should subject her to that now that I have seen her sketches,' Inuyasha thought then realized that he had to at least ask her.

“You can live the rest of your life dealing with the hanyou that could transform and kill you?” he asked, anxiously awaiting her answer.

“Yes. Haven't I already proven that to you?” she asked, a bit surprised that he hadn't already come to that realization. “Do you love me, Inuyasha? I can't do this either if you don't love me.” That was the real question. What would be the purpose of spilling her heart and soul into him if he would only reject her later? She loved him with all her heart and knew that if he didn't feel the same, they would end up ruining their relationship.

Inuyasha reached up with his right hand and lightly traced his finger around the curve of her ear and down her jaw with such a look of longing that it caused a lump to rise in Kagome's throat. “I told you. I will always be by your side, Inuyasha,” she assured him.

“For some time now, I just...” Pain crossed his face as he lowered his head. Admitting such things was so difficult. He was certain that he could have never done so while in his hanyou form. Opening himself up to her like this risked everything that he was, especially his half-blooded side. Regardless of what anyone thought, it was that side that needed the most emotional protection. “I didn't want to be vulnerable again.”

“Oh, Inuyasha. I could never hurt you like that. You have to realize that,” said Kagome while caressing his cheek.

“But you leave me all the time,” muttered Inuyasha and leaning his face into her hand.

“I always come back, don't I?”

He nodded his head and pressed her hand to his face with his. `No matter how much I had tried to drive her away, no matter how much I have hurt her, she has always stayed by my side.'

“I found something, something you lost,” Kagome said, standing up and walking to her dresser. `This may help to reassure him that I will not go back on my word.'

She opened her top dresser drawer and wrapped her hand around an object. Padding back to him, she hid the object in her right hand. She climbed up on the bed and tucked her legs to the side.

“Come here,” she whispered.

Inuyasha slid up to sit in front of her and crossed his legs while wondering what she was doing.

 

Still clutching the object in her hands, she leaned forward and reached for the string of beads around his neck. “You won't be needing these tonight,” she whispered in his ear, the breath from her lips causing his entire body to quiver.

She lifted the beads from around his neck and slid them down his long black mane Inuyasha closed his eyes and took a jagged breath, finally feeling the freedom that he was afraid would leave her open to his attacks. Tonight though, she wouldn't be in any danger. One night of freedom. Sitting back, she took his left hand and tucked an object into it. Inuyasha looked down after she pulled her hand away.

He gasped, his breath hitching in his throat. “Where did you find it?”

“I guess it fell off the last time you were here.”

After looking at the necklace with awe, a rare smile graced Inuyasha's features. “I looked everywhere.”

 

Kagome grinned at his admission. It was a relief and a pleasure to know that he was attached to the necklace that she had given him. What she did not know was that Inuyasha had come to believe that the necklace truly was magical, as she had insisted when she had first given it to him. After all, it was what had saved him during Kaguya's attack. It had been Kagome's object from the future that Kaguya hadn't been able to manipulate.

 

It was magic. Her magic. He knew it as he untangled the string and handed the ends to Kagome. She didn't hesitate to tie it around his neck. A gold heart pendant now hung in the hollow of his throat, the inside containing pictures of both. Though the metal should have been cool, it sat warm against his skin. It was a comforting weight and brought along with it the thought that as long as he had the necklace, Kagome would always be with him. With his heart in his throat, Inuyasha unfolded his legs and hesitantly leaned forward, lips slightly parted.

 

At first, Kagome wasn't sure of his intent. Once it dawned on her that Inuyasha was offering a kiss, she felt her cheeks warm while butterflies flitted all through her belly. Inuyasha wrapped his right arm around her back and pulled her forward as he folded his lips around hers. They held each other in a tight embrace, afraid to let go and at the same time yearning to crawl inside each others' skin and become one.

 

Inuyasha gently leaned into to her, pushing her back onto the bed. Their bodies melted together as he let his weight sink into her. `This is a dream,' he thought while he gazed at the person that comprised his whole universe.

 

Inuyasha's gaze was too much for Kagome. Even in the relative darkness, his charcoal eyes glowed with such determined intensity that the world melted away, leaving only him. The desire to touch something so incredible overwhelmed Kagome and she pulled his shoulders down and ravaged his lips then plunged her tongue deep into his mouth. By his own choice, he was hers now. She had rights to his body, to explore every corner of his mouth, to sip from his lips. She had waited for this, waited for so long that her elation was nearly painful.

 

At her aggressive behavior, heat rose within Inuyasha. Joining her in her fury to be one, he wrestled his tongue with hers, stroking ever corner and wall of her mouth, drinking her sweet nectar. There was no battle, no struggle. They simply lost themselves in the taste, smell, and sensation of finally touching in one of the most intimate fashions, finally giving in to all the pent up longing.

Kagome felt her body flush, felt his arousal against her mound. She could not help but raise her hips and to seek to satiate the desire between her thighs. She rocked his body above her as he moved forward and back. The sensation of him rocking against her and pressing his hardness in just the right spot made her so hot that her head spun with the intensity of the burn.

Breathing hard, Inuyasha rose and began to unbutton Kagome's pajama shirt. Sliding his hands up under the shirt, he parted the fabric and caressed her warm silky skin.

“You're so beautiful, Kagome,” whispered Inuyasha while gazing at the woman beneath him.

Kagome smiled at him, glancing at the heart pendant dangling from his neck. He had pretended to reject the necklace, so she had been a bit miffed when she had discovered its glow as he had battled with Kaguya. Had he not been wearing it, the battle would have been over before it began. Now, her gift was not hidden under his clothing, but hanging above her in clear view, a tangible sign that he loved her. And maybe, just maybe, she felt as though it was a visible sign that he publicly accepted her. Leaving on display would give her a sense of comfort, security, and surprisingly, pride and a sense of possession, and of being possessed.

With her pajama shirt now peeled back, Inuyasha caressed her body beginning at her belly and working his way up to her breasts, lightly cupping them, and then brushing his fingers over her nipples. Up close, her fragility scared him, even while her inner strength increased his own power.

 

Kagome felt her desire growing, heat radiating throughout her body as she quivered beneath him.

 

“Are you okay? I'm not hurting you am I?” asked Inuyasha unsure that her trembling was from pleasure or pain.

 

“No, no, you're not hurting me. Don't stop,” rasped Kagome, surprised at her own boldness.

 

He leaned down, gazing at the stiff hardened nipples, longing for his touch heretofore forbidden fruit. Leaning down, his dark hair brushing Kagome's sides and arms, he tenderly kissed each nipple then brushed his cheeks against them, tenderly making love to them, to her.

“Inuyasha...” Kagome moaned for no reason that her fuzzy mind could justify. What he was doing felt so wonderful that she couldn't help herself.

Inuyasha looked up to see her head tilted back, eyes glazed over, lips parted, and face blushed a deep crimson. The thought that she could respond to him so freely sent blood rushing through his veins. Sliding up, brushing his shirt against her nipples, he trailed feather light kisses up her neck, behind her ear, coming back down to nibble on its lobe. Moving back down and wetting her neck, he trailed up the other side, following her jaw line to her chin and then licking and suckling up her chin to her soft succulent lips. He fell into her sweet mouth as he rocked his hard member against her mound. All of those denied emotions rose to the surface rushed to the surface with a strength that overwhelmed his heart. They pushed him forward, urging to take the one he had so long thought was beyond his reach.

 

Her hips answered of their own accord as though her body was beyond her control, her belly sinking seemingly to her backbone. Kagome's moans reverberated through Inuyasha's body as his lips captured the muffled sounds returning them.

Inuyasha lifted her up and helped her out of the pajama shirt, then pulled the bottoms off. He stared at her lower body out of curiosity and in wonder. Kagome could wait no more.

 

She longed to feel Inuyasha's heated skin against hers and so, leaned forward and undid his sash. Inuyasha pulled his kimono and shirt over his head, discarding them on the floor. Kagome hesitantly, somewhat embarrassed, slowly slid his pants down. What she saw was amazing, and scary. She lightly touched his swollen member exploring this part of him that she had never seen. It was smooth like satin and seemed to pulse beneath her fingers. Clear viscous liquid seeped from the tip. Curious, she touched it, smeared it around the head of his shaft then tasted with the tip of her tongue. It tasted of salt, not at all unpleasant.

 

Inuyasha closed his eyes letting out a restrained groan through clenched jaws. He felt her arms around his hips, pulling him into her, his member pressed against her cheek. She nuzzled his belly and turned her head to feel his thick hardness against her nose. Inuyasha's stomach lurched when he felt wet warmth caress the side of his shaft.

 

The quiver and upward flex of his member told Kagome that this pleased him. Pulling back, she wrapped the fingers of both her hands around him and tenderly licked the tip. Inuyasha mewled when she wrapped her lips around him and swirled her tongue. Ever so slowly, she pulled her lips away and used them to caress the tip of his engorged shaft.

 

Inuyasha could barely stand it. He felt as though his abdomen was folding in upon itself, tightening like a drawn bow as his excitement reached a new level. He thought his pleasure could not be more heightened without release until Kagome slid her hot wet mouth down his shaft. It was sheer torture, but blissful torture.

“Kagome...please…don't stop,” rasped Inuyasha between jagged breaths.

Kagome grinned, loving that she gave him so much pleasure. She wanted to give him more. While making love to him with her mouth, she developed a slow rhythm gripping him with her hands as she moved up and down his shaft, taking him deeper into her moist confines with each stroke and working the muscles of her throat. The taste of the salty nectar that seeped from the head of his shaft prompted her own juices to flow between her thighs. Giving him this pleasure, feeling his responses, only heightened hers.

Inuyasha panted moaning a barely audible, “No more,” pushing her back and hovering over her.

He slid down to nip and tug at her nipples and then to ravish them with his tongue and heated mouth. Inuyasha felt her body arch while he savored the effects of his teasing. His body was lifted with the rocking of her hips. Were he hanyou, he would be able to smell the scent of her arousal. That would come later, tomorrow, if he was lucky. Beginning at her breastbone, he lapped and kissed a searing trail down her supple skin as he gripped her ribs between his strong hands.

 

Kagome squirmed, taking jagged breaths and quivering. To the point of pain her body ached for him; her heart crying for him to make love to her. Inuyasha pulled his hands down to place them between her thighs.

“I want you, Inuyasha. Now, please,” she panted.

“Soon,” he whispered with patient tenderness.

Inuyasha lay down between her legs, his head above her thighs and slowly began to explore her moist wetness with the tips of his fingers. He rubbed his thumb and fingers together, feeling the slickness of her nectar. Lifting them to his lips, he tasted her.

`Clean like spring water,' he thought to himself.

Lowering his head, he gently explored her soft wet petals with his tongue. That tight tension seeped through her belly and spread out through her through her limbs. The gentle touches sent streams of heat that caused an ache to swell inside her. That aching and heat burned through her flesh until her core was on the verge of pain, and she instinctively knew that Inuyasha was the cure. Without conscious thought, her legs opened to him and invited him to relieve her.

 

Inuyasha took advantage, delving deeper with his tongue only to find that her quakes, accompanied by quiet mewls, made his blood roil to the surface of his swollen skin. The hardness of his arousal was all but killing him. He opened his mouth to pull her petals and bud into his mouth. Caressing and stroking with his tongue, first slowly and then with passion, his own body tensed in pleasure at Kagome's writhing.

“Inuyasha, please,” Kagome pleaded.

Inuyasha could not deny himself, or Kagome, any longer. He pulled himself above her and gazed into her deep chocolate eyes. Could she do this without regret?

 

Kagome could barely keep her eyes open, but managed a smile and then gasped when Inuyasha bore his weight heavily upon her. Their bodies rocked together in passionate preparation for what was to come. Slick fluid coated Inuyasha's swollen member.

“Kagome, I don't want to hurt you, but I can't help it.” His pained expression clearly stated his feelings of guilt. Smiling, though she was a bit scared, she tried to comfort him.

“I know, Inuyasha. It's okay. No pain, no gain, right?” she re-assured him, even through her own fear.

Inuyasha simply gazed at her for a moment. What could he say that would really make it easier? Nothing. He pulled back to allow the tip of his shaft to slide down and rest just outside the entrance of pleasures promise, a gift that he was about to take from Kagome. She moaned as he gently tested her heated slick entrance, yet she still seemed to pull away as he barely entered and bore down against her barrier. She grasped his hips and dug her nails in trying to accept the pain that she was about to receive.

Inuyasha pulled back. “Do you want me to stop?”

Kagome shook her head. “No.”

 

Despite the pending discomfort, Kagome wanted this. The pain of rejection, buried deep within her soul could only be healed by Inuyasha. This would be much more than a temporary bandage. He was committed.

Inuyasha lay his face into her hair and then quickly thrust, breaking past her barrier in one fell swoop in hopes that it would curb her suffering. Kagome yelped through clenched jaws. With the sudden and surprising violation, the breath she had been holding burst past her lips. Guilt hit Inuyasha and he fought back the urge to continue thrusting. The tight grip in which she held him was sheer torture. It begged him to massage it while satisfying his own need for friction.

 

With her hands on Inuyasha's lower back, Kagome held him still. After a few moments, her breathing slowed and her body adjusted to the large hard object inside of her. The tension and pain gradually eased and she slid her hands up Inuyasha's back to clutch his shoulders.

“Okay,” she whispered in anticipation.

Inuyasha lifted his head and slid down to kiss her deeply which caused his shaft to partially withdraw. Both felt the effects. The sensation wrought a whimper from her that was accompanied by his groan. Inuyasha didn't know if it was from pleasure, pain, or both. Continuing their deep heady kisses, they made slow and tender love to each other. Inuyasha gently stroked in and out of her, the act full of tenderness.

 

As Kagome's vision blurred under the onslaught of sensation, her back arched while she writhed and moaned. In an attempt to breathe and calm what felt like insanity, she threw her head back, then brought it back up again to bury her face into the nook between Inuyasha's neck and shoulder. The sensation of scalding heat running through her veins and swelling her body was causing her head to spin. Need ran rampant through every fiber of her being and took the reins. She pushed her hips harder and faster into him. Feeling her rising passion, Inuyasha groaned as his own desire to release heightened.

Time seemed to stand still for Inuyasha. The moment was overflowing with emotions and sensations that his body and soul had never entered his imagination. The only mind he had to speak of was his knowledge that he was one with the woman he loved. That knowledge drove his desire to thrust faster and harder. Her responsiveness paved the way for his passion to accelerate to unfathomable heights. The more friction she gave him, the more he craved. Sensation drowned him, washed over and through him, swirled inside his head.

Kagome suddenly Inuyasha's his member growing larger. Her eyes flew open to see a sunbeam touching the face of a red-eyed hanyou. She drew in a surprised breath. The crimson red quickly disappeared, leaving gold on white in its place. Long, thick, white hair draped all around her as she looked up to see the puppy ears atop Inuyasha's head.

 

`Will he reject me now that he is back to that gruff exterior?' Kagome wondered with no small amount of trepidation.

As his transformation took place, Inuyasha saw the concern in her eyes. Through the haze of his lust, he gazed down into her chocolate orbs and quietly asked, “Are you okay...” to quell any fear, nervously adding, “Love?”

It felt strange and foreign on his tongue, but the last thing he wanted to do was scare her away. They had yet to finish their bonding and he would not be stopped, not when he had been so close.

Kagome smiled, relieved that he hadn't freaked out. With a nod, she pulled her arms from under his and reached up to caress his ears. Inuyasha growled at the erotic tingling sensation. Lowering his head, he began making love to her again, being gentle and slow once more while Kagome continued to stroke his ears. As she became accustomed to his larger size, they became more fervent in there efforts to regain the level of ecstasy that snapped the pleasurable tension into throes of passionate release.

As Inuyasha left behind all gentleness and began to pound into her, Kagome clenched her jaws shut to muffle the scream of pleasure rising in her chest. Inuyasha felt the walls surrounding his manhood tighten. The sensation was driving him to the edge, but not so much that he didn't notice Kagome's countenance. He tightly covered her mouth with his as her first jolt of release sent a scream from her lips. Her convulsion sent him deep as his abdomen jerked to completely bury himself inside of her tight heat. Unexpectedly, his body snapped, his mind exploded, and his seed shot deep within his lover. Inuyasha did not ask and could not stop the instinctive urge to draw back and dig his fangs into the junction of her neck and shoulder. With his fangs buried in her, his mouth working to suck the blood down his throat, his body continued convulsing occasionally driving a needy thrust into her depths.

 

Kagome drew a sharp breath while still writhing beneath Inuyasha. Shivers of delight streaked through her body when the tips of his sharp fangs grazed the delicate skin of her neck. Her eyes squeezed shut and lips grew taught as she felt Inuyasha apply more pressure. Abruptly, his fangs were inside of her. It didn't hurt as much as she would have thought. Instead, his fangs let off heated and soothing warmth. The pleasure of Inuyasha suckling her neck ripped through her and caused her body to strengthen its rhythmic gripping of his manhood, consequently extending his own flight into ecstasy.

Their throes of passion felt as though it had lasted for hours before they came down from the heights of their lovemaking. Kagome lay quivering and breathless beneath Inuyasha's heaving chest. He raised his face from her hair and tenderly kissed her lips, sending another convulsion through her body. Inuyasha's member flexed inside of her in response. Hoping to bring the same reaction, he kissed her with abandon. As he had hoped, she convulsed more, shuddered, and sent more pleasurable warmth through his body.

Passion's heat gradually left their bodies. Inuyasha gripped Kagome from under her back and rolled them onto their sides while keeping their connection. He pinned her against himself, using his left leg to pull her right leg between his thighs. Kagome reached and pulled the blanket over them then buried her head into his chiseled hanyou chest as he gripped her soft petite body against him. They rested in each other's embrace. Inuyasha nuzzled the top of her head as she kissed his chest. Silence filled the air as they rested. For the moment, all was peaceful, the deceptive calm before the storm.
