"Happy endings?" Sesshoumaru repeated.
Kagome laughed. "Although, I don't think I would complain too much if you did decide to give me a happy ending." Sure, she was playing a dangerous game but she felt safe in the knowledge that he didn't understand what she meant. She shouldn't have underestimated his intelligence.
"Is that so? So this Sesshoumaru may carry you, massage you, and bring you to orgasm, but a spanking would require a committed relationship? I was correct. You have very conflicting views on intimacy."
Kagome's cheeks flared a brilliant red and she turned her face away in embarrassment. "I was kidding," she muttered. "I didn't think you knew what that meant."
"It was not a difficult deduction. Does this mean you are withdrawing the invitation?" He knew he was doing it again, behaving oddly, flirting with this human girl, but he couldn't help it. It was fun, and he had so very little fun in his life. Being the Western Lord left little room for anything but seriousness. He had to maintain his emotionless facade. He had to stand tall, alone, to prove that he had no weakness. His life was nothing but mind-numbing politics interspersed with battles when someone was deranged enough to believe themselves his better. He stomped down those annoying little uprisings easily, ensuring that everyone feared him, but this little woman in his arms did not.
The miko smiled, enjoying the playful side of the demon Lord she hadn't even known existed. "You offering?"
"Perhaps, if you were not so exhausted," he teased. "Next time, I will have to end the chase sooner. I would be forced to be incredibly offended if you were to fall asleep while I pleasured you."
The miko's cheeks flushed a darker shade of red at his words, but she would not back down. If he thought he could embarrass her into submission, he was wrong. She knew far too much about sex, courtesy of her time, to fan herself and fake a fainting spell at a few racy words. "You're not very confident in your skills, are you? I mean, if you were good, I wouldn't think falling asleep would be possible."
Sesshoumaru growled softly at the insult, though he knew she said it in jest. What male would not be upset when a female challenged their sexual prowess? "If I were to pleasure you, miko, you may lose consciousness, but not from exhaustion."
"Ah, there's the arrogance I was expecting," Kagome replied with a laugh.
"It is not arrogance when it is true."
"Really? When's the last time you were with a woman? I just can't picture you dating."
"Dating?"
"Ummm, courting? Being in a relationship."
Sesshoumaru frowned, unwilling to answer her question. It had, indeed, been far too long. Sure, he could lie to her, but he was far too honorable for that. When he remained silent, Kagome grinned and allowed a yawn to escape her.
"That's what I thought."
"Happy endings?" Sesshoumaru repeated.
Kagome laughed. "Although, I don't think I would complain too much if you did decide to give me a happy ending." Sure, she was playing a dangerous game but she felt safe in the knowledge that he didn't understand what she meant. She shouldn't have underestimated his intelligence.
