“Talking”
`Thoughts'
 
 
“Just shut up! How in the hell did you know I work here?!” Kagura shouted, shocked that the woman seemed to at ease and happy to hear from her.
 
“Please Kagura come down. I can explain everything. Everything will make sense if you let me explain. Just listen to me.” Sakura said gently, a smile still on her lips. She stared straight into Kagura's deep crimson eyes, which mirrored hers perfectly. Even if she wanted to touch the young woman, and appease her, she dared not.
 
“Do not tell me what the hell I should do!” Kagura screamed at her angrily.
 
“Is everything alright here?” None other than Kenji appeared behind Kagura.
 
“I'm sorry for causing a scene like that.” She turned around to face her boss, an apologetic expression on her face.
 
“Don't worry about it kid.” The old tiger demon said gruffly. “Now ma'am in my restaurant we reserve the right to refuse service to clients as we please, so I'd greatly appreciate it if you left.” The old tiger youkai gently flexed his large arm muscles. He would never raise his hand to a woman, but he wanted her to understand that he was serious in protecting Kagura.
 
“Kagura dear I am sorry if I am making things uncomfortable for you here. I only meant to talk to you for a little while. Please… I beg you. It has to do with your father…” Sakura said red eyes gleaming.
 
“What does Naraku have to do with this?!” The wind sorceress said without realizing it, anger and fear rippling through her. After learning of the blackmail on Sesshoumaru Naraku had done, she was worried of what her father might do to her next. She knew how easily he could make people suffer if he wished to.
 
“That's just it. Naraku Onigumo is not your father.” Sakura let out in one breath.
 
“What did you just say?” Kagura asked in shock, taking a step back.
 
`I must have misheard. It couldn't be.' She then thought to herself. Her body felt suddenly numb and cold. The words spoken by Sakura were simply not fathomable by the young demoness. She took one more step back and bumped right into Kenji's broad torso. The tiger demon, who was still glowering at Sakura, raised both hands to steady Kagura.
 
“Please Kagura let me explain. I need to talk to you, but not here. Please hear me out.” Sakura's dark crimson eyes started shinning brilliantly once she realized that her chance to make things right might be slipping between her perfectly manicured fingers.
 
“Kagura, do you want me to get you rid of her?” Her boss asked, his piercing eyes scanned the dining room of his restaurant, forcing the curious onlookers to turn their gaze away. Only his granddaughter Ai dared keep her orbs stuck on the unfolding drama.
 
The wind sorceress stopped to ponder on the question. Something in the older woman's widened red eyes called to her. It was an expression her own eyes frequently displayed before she had met Sesshoumaru: a mix of fear and desperation.
 
`Why is she this desperate to talk to me?' Kagura wondered before saying aloud “No boss. Thanks, but I'm good. I'll just step out for a second and talk to her.”
 
“Thank you.” Sakura managed to let out, choking on emotion. She could see the uncertainty in Kagura's eyes, and wanted to touch her, comfort her, but did not dare.
 
“Fine do what you believe is best, but if she gives you trouble…” Kenji started just as his wife Mayumi arrived to interject “Kagura will be sure to call us for help. Now go along dear.” The older tiger demoness said as she nudged the wind sorceress away from Kenji's protective hold, and towards the entrance of the restaurant. Mayumi, the old and always wise tiger demoness recognized the look in Sakura's eyes, and knew she would not harm Kagura in any way.
 
`No, Kagura has no need to worry. After all no woman would ever hurt her own child.' The uncanny resemblance Sakura shared with Kagura and Kanna had not gone unnoticed by the tiger demoness, nor had the look of longing in the older void demoness. Kagura had not told her employers a lot about her life growing up, but Mayumi could tell she had had a hard life so far.
 
`The poor child has suffered enough. I just hope she will find some happiness.' Mayumi silently prayed. “Come on old man, let's get back to work. We have a restaurant to take care of. The dinner meal isn't going to get cooked by itself.” She then pushed her husband towards the kitchen, preventing his protective eyes from following Kagura and the mysterious Mrs. Fujibayashi as they stepped outside, inside the chilly night air.
 
 
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000
 
 
“I see you have great people in your life. These tiger demons seem to care a lot about you; I am pleased.” Sakura risked a shy smile at the young woman standing across from her. The two were standing merely a few feet away from the entrance of the restaurant.
 
“I don't have time for niceties. What is it you want from me?” The wind sorceress offered in response. “How is it you know of Naraku?”
 
“How I wanted things to be different… Well I guess there is no need to hide the truth anymore. Enough time has been wasted anyways. The truth is that I have known about you for so long. Actually since you were born…. You see Kagura I am… your mother.” Sakura stopped breathing then. She feared too much her daughter's reaction to dare take a next breath.
 
Kagura sucked in a sharp breath. As shocked as she was, it was really amusement at the ridiculousness of the situation that really prevailed inside her.
 
`Good god! Naraku has better find better ways to mess with me than this.' She thought to herself a bittersweet smile on her lips. She was convinced that it was her father that was behind the sudden appearance of the mysterious Sakura.
 
“Yeah right. I don't believe that for one second. It is impossible. My mother was a wind sorceress…” `Not a rich pampered woman.' Kagura could not help but mentally add, her eyes going from the expensive designer shoes of the woman standing opposite her, then up her perfectly tailored clothes to rest on the crimson eyes which mirrored hers.
 
Her accidental observation made her suddenly pause. Now that she looked at Sakura, Kagura came to realize the resemblance between the two of them, not to mention the one between her daughter and Sakura's son Hakudoushi, who she had seen a picture of.
 
`I shouldn't let these coincidences get to me…' She tried to convince herself even as doubt started growing inside her.
 
“Is that what that bastard told you? He lied… Naraku is not your father, but I am your mother…. If you want proof, I can give you proof…. You have a small birthmark on your back. I saw it the day I gave birth to you.”
 
The gasp Kagura let out at her revelation was indication enough to the older demoness that she had said the truth. It was enough to bring a smile to Sakura's lips.
 
`There is no doubt to have this time around. She really is my baby.' The void demoness looked in the deep crimson eyes to the woman she had given birth to, and finally felt at peace.
 
“Ah my sweet Kagura, I have been dying to be with you, and talk to you for the longest time. I've wanted to be near you for so long.” The void demoness reached for Kagura's arm, and took her hand in hers. Finally able to touch her daughter made her heart flutter in happiness.
 
“There is so much that I need… and want to tell you. Ah honey, I feel so silly right now, for I do not even know where to start.” She added, lifting her arms to encircle her daughter in a tight hug. She was however extremely disappointed when Kagura pushed her arms away and glared at her.
 
“Do not touch me! If… and I don't believe it… if what you said is true…” She interrupted herself to take a deep breath. After all as convincing as Sakura may have sounded, Kagura was still trying not to believe her words. “…then I don't want to have anything to do with you! You sicken me. How could you… how could you leave me with that monster?! Having him raise me, and leave me believe that my parents had abandoned me? You're worst of a monster than Naraku.” Kagura spat angrily at her mother.
 
“No Kagura it wasn't like that…. I swear that's not what happened. This is why I need to speak to you honey. Please let me explain!” Sakura cried out, tears pooling on her crimson eyes and trailing down her pale cheeks.
 
“Circumstances forced me to leave you behind… I know it may sound like it, but I am not making excuses, but I just wish you would hear me out. Please listen to me and what I have to say.” She added her heart breaking at the sight of Kagura's closed off face.
 
“There is nothing to explain. Stay away from me. I don't want to have anything to do with you. I don't want to ever hear about you, or see you. Don't you dare show your face at my work place again, or anywhere near my apartment.” Suddenly Kagura thought back to the last few months and put the pieces back together. She was now convinced that it had been Sakura's presence she had felt following her all this time, not Naraku.
 
“I don't know how you came to find out that much information about my life and my daughter, but I swear that if you ever come close to us, or try to hurt us I will make you pay. I don't know what it is that Naraku is trying to accomplish by using you, but you can tell him that he won't get a dime from me or from Sesshoumaru!” Kagura was convinced that Sakura was in league with her father, and only meant to hurt her and the people she cared about.
 
`I don't really believe for one second her entire bullshit about being my mother, no matter how much she may look like me. I wouldn't put it past my dear old dad to use an actress who has crimson eyes resembling my own to implement his vengeance. After all I know better than anyone how conniving and manipulating that bastard can be. Even the thing about my birthmark could be either a coincidence, or Naraku telling her.' Kagura thought to herself, feeling the usual bitter taste in her mouth at thinking about her father.
 
Without bothering to explain more about her threat, or give Sakura a chance to explain herself, Kagura turned around. She was not willing to spend another minute in the company of the older demoness, so decided to run away.
 
“Kagura!” Sakura chocked on her tears as she called the younger demoness, with who she wanted so badly to speak. “KAGURA!”
 
Pretending not to hear the woman screaming after her, the wind sorceress kept running. Her world had just fallen apart, and there was only one place she could think of going. She ran on and on, ignoring the burn in her lungs or the tears blurring her vision.
 
 
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000
 
 
Sesshoumaru Takahashi was settled behind his desk, working diligently. Ever since he had remodeled his advertising agency, everyone had even more work to do, and being the CEO he needed to show his employees they were not the only ones suffering from the big changes the company had went through.
 
With the aid of his sharp hearing Sesshoumaru heard a knock at his door. After letting out an exasperate sigh, he dropped the pencil he had been actively drawing with, and took to his feet. With a few powerful strides he was at the door, and opened to see who had dared disturb him during one of his most creative times.
 
`As long as it is not my idiotic brother…' He thought to himself, knowing the presence of the hanyou could be enough to cause one of his recurring headaches.
 
“Kagura?!” He gasped in shock as the figure of the beautiful wind sorceress was revealed once he opened the door. “Did you forget something earlier?” He asked wondering if she had left a book behind after their study session
 
“No. I'm back. I came to see you. I can't stay away from you anymore Sesshoumaru. I want you. I love you, and so does Kanna. Leaving you was the stupidest mistake I have ever made, and I regret it deeply.” She said all in one breath as she threw herself in his arms. Due to the shock of her sudden revelation, he almost did not catch her in time. However when the meaning of her words sunk inside his stunned brain, he wasted no time enveloping her in a tight hug.
 
“I have my wrongs too.” He looked down into her shimmering crimson eyes.
 
“I don't care anymore. Soon I'll have to go pick up Kanna. I… we don't have long, so we should make better use of our time than blaming each other.” The words had barely left her lips, that she pressed a searing kiss to the dog demon's lips.
 
Happiness soaring through him, he eagerly responded to her kiss. He did not want to spend what little time they still had to spend together in his hallway, so he gently scooped her in his arms and after closing the front door behind them, lead Kagura towards their bedroom.
 
“Hmm I missed you so much.” She murmured in his ear before gently nibbling on the sensitive appendage, causing a shiver of desire to ripple through him.
 
Sesshoumaru gently deposited his woman on their bed before doing fast work of ridding her of her clothes. She let out few moans and giggles as he slipped off her shirt then pants. Only once she was reduced to her underwear did he let her touch him. It was actually only then that he truly had the feeling that Kagura was indeed back by his side, where she belonged. Seeing her underwear clad supple body was proof enough of her feelings for him.
 
The wind sorceress raised herself on her knees before pressing a quick kiss to the crook of her lovers' neck; a spot she knew was extremely sensitive for him. Kagura then wasted no time to reacquaint herself with his smooth satiny pale skin, and let her hands quickly roam all around him, paying great attention to run her fingers over his well designed chest and abs even if they were still masked from her view by his clothes..
 
“I missed you too much. I can't wait. I want you now.” She sighed before opening his shirt and pressing a kiss to the center of his chest. A growl of appreciation formed in his throat as he let himself fall down, taking her with him. His hands were then everywhere on her at once, touching and caressing, enjoying their reunion. The dog demon's lips then travelled from her lips down to her body. With expert fingers he unfastened the latch of her bra, and sent the frilly red underwear flying across the room, where it lay forgotten.
 
“How could I go on without you for so long?” She moaned out when his lips fastened around her nipple. She felt him chuckle against her skin, adding on to her pleasure.
 
Not liking to be so passive, she gently pushed him away before sliding down his body, in search to please him. His eyes clouded over when she unfastened his pants and reached inside his underwear. He shuddered violently when her skin came in contact with his.
 
“Seems like you missed me Sesshy. Now let's see how much he missed me.” She chuckled just before lowering her head to his lap, her crimson eyes never looking away from his darkened amber gaze.
 
“Kagura!” He gasped just as his eyes flew open. The dog demon rubbed his eyes and noticed with shock that he had fallen asleep over his desk while working on his latest campaign.
 
`Pitiful. It was just another dream. I knew it was too good to be true anyways.' He thought to himself as he looked down to stare at his painfully aroused length, confined in his pants. `I better go take another cold shower.' He thought angrily just as he stood up from behind his desk to go to his bathroom.
 
On his way there he divested himself of his clothing. He did feel slightly guilty at seeing how he had carelessly thrown his clothes around.
 
`Kagura would have my head had she been here.' He smiled fondly remembering how the wind sorceress would always insist he place his clothes in the hamper, not on the floor of his apartment.
 
Eager to calm down his heated blood, he wasted no time, and turned on his shower. He shivered slightly, but let the cold water cool him down. Just as he reached for his soap, to his shock he heard the doorbell of his penthouse ring. He muffled a curse at having to shorten his much needed shower, but still decided to answer. Turning off the water, he quickly stepped out of his shower, and grabbed a towel on his way to the door. He took the time to tie the pieces of cloth around his waist before answering the relentless sound of his doorbell.
 
A gasp almost escaped his lips as he saw none other than Kagura standing on his doorstep.
 
`Please let it not be a dream.' He thought as he pinched his water slick arm. As the slight pain registered through him, he realized that he indeed was wide awake. However the reenactment of his earlier fantasy stopped when he noticed the tears pouring from Kagura's eyes.
 
“Kagura? What's wrong?” He asked concerned.
 
“Sesshoumaru. I need you.” To his dismay she suddenly broke down in tears in front of him.
 
 
To be continued…
 
 
A/N: Did you really think I was going to give you a reunion lemon this early? Sorry, but I'm too evil for that lol. Will Kagura ever find out the truth about her parentage? What will happen between her and Sesshoumaru? We'll see next time in Safe haven. There will be an update next week, probably on Wednesday, so keep an eye open for it!
