Chapter 1

First Time Meetings

 

 

“Driver could you go any faster? I'm going to miss my flight,” she said digging through her Louie Vuitton purse, while pulling out her wallet and frantically going through her bills. “Look, I will throw you an extra fifty,” she said sweetly, while flaunting the cash through the sliding glass door that separated the two.

 

Charlie could never resist a beautiful woman and the look she was giving him right at the moment; he could not deny her charms. “Miss, keep your money, please. I will be happy to step on it,” he said with contentment, as he stepped on the gas. Glancing at the girl in his rear view-mirror, he quickly looked away and concentrated on his driving. Returning to his gaze, his eyes could not help but wander; her black and white-pinned striped business suit complemented her curvy features, her ebony hair was pulled up neatly into a tight French twist, as ringlets fell, slightly covering her small ears.

 

Kagome was speechless; nonetheless, she smiled, retreating into her black leather seat. A small blush crept across her face. “Thank you,” she beamed.

 

Charlie saw the exit. “We will be at the airport in ten minutes,” he replied, staring into her seductive hazel eyes.

 

A sigh of relief washed over her face. She flipped open her silver cell phone and stared at the time. Thankfully, her flight did not depart for another forty minutes, which gave her ample time to board. `Thank god that I bought my ticket in advance,' she smiled. `I hope that the lines will not be too long.' Her thoughts continued, while flipping the phone closed and throwing it back into her sturdy beige purse. She set her handbag onto the floor as she continued gazing out the large window.

 

Her cell phone played Beethoven's Fur Elise. As the classical piece played, she dug through her purse and swore under her breath. `Ha! Found the little vile creature,' she exulted. She really did not feel like dealing with her company right at the moment.

 

“Hello, Kagome Higurashi,” she announced, “Hello Allison… Yes, I'm aware of this, now,” she paused; she hated dealing with her. `I really do need to fire her when I return from this meeting in Jamaica,' she thought, and then continued on her conversation. “No, Allison, I will not return to the office until next week, you know this. Just make up the contract; I will do the rest when I meet with President Joel Edmond.” She sighed and listened to the annoying co-worker; she placed her fingers over her forehead. She rubbed her temples and tried to loosen the tension that was emerging. “Allison, please calm down. I will have him sign the papers; just have them ready for me, okay? Good, now I need to go and have a good weekend. Just ask Mary if you have any further questions. Okay...sounds great…bye,” she said, agitated. She slammed her phone shut, disposed it back into the abyss of her purse.

 

The yellow Taxi arrived at Cleveland Hopkins Airport-ten minutes, just as he predicted. Jumping out of the cab, he approached the unlocked trunk, disposing her luggage, he handed the expensive cases to the skycap that happily placed it onto his cart.

 

She opened her door. Her long slender legs carried her over to the cab driver, and then paid for the fare. She headed into the mass of people all trying to board.

 

`Why me?' she asked herself, pulling her luggage behind her.

 

Her bags been securely checked before they sent them to be loaded on the plane. Kagome smiled receiving her ticket then proceeded towards her gate. An announcement rang through the speakers. “Flight 192 is ready to board all passengers,” a raspy feminine voice publicized. Kagome sighed, and ran towards the boarding docks. She could feel her heels as they dug into the thin gray carpet; it caught every snag.

 

“Flight 192 from Cleveland to Miami, is ready for boarding,” she repeated. Her pristine blue outfit stood out from the rest of the group now ready to board the jet. A smile appeared on her face as customers handed their tickets to the lively blonde-haired woman.

 

As Kagome approached the flight attendant, she handed over her ticket. She found herself glancing again at the gaudy outfit and her little hat, held by rhinestone pins. She wanted to rip it off her head because it was nothing but a tactless design. She could not help but critique the woman, and, in addition, slap her happy façade away from her narrow face. Kagome smiled back at the woman, with a sinister glare, before she walked away, ticket in hand.

 

 

Happy that she was away from the flight attendant, she glanced at her ticket, looking for her assigned seat. She counted the numbers that were above the seats just below the luggage racks; she walked sideways, through the narrow aisles on the airplane. `Ah, found it,' she thought excitedly, looking at her ticket and at the number once more. She lifted up her carry-on, desperately trying to fit into her luggage compartment. Her skirt rose up on her thighs, and showed off her strong legs, more of her black thigh-high pantyhose, and a small portion of her black lace garter belt. She desperately tried pushing the luggage in the overhead compartment.

 

 

“Ma'am you look like you could use some help,” a strong masculine voice said. The owner of the voice reached behind her and grabbed the luggage out of her grasp. His height had given him an advantage, and he easily placed the carry-on successfully into the tight compartment. He could not help but smell her hair as he reached for her luggage. “Oh, what a coincidence-it seems to be that we are seated together. Hi, my name is Inuyasha,” he said, and stretched out his hand for the welcoming handshake. However, none came.

 

She looked at him oddly. She could see him extend his hand as she ignored him and took her seat next to the window. She was not usually like this-not rude, maybe bitchy-but never rude. She felt like she just hit with the dejàvu card again, and found herself speechless.

 

She never expected him to be so handsome. His long black hair was pulled back into a ponytail; his black Armani suit fit him so well, showing off his manly features, brawny chest, and shoulders. He was tall, and looked to be very athletic. What caught her attention the most; were his eyes-they were big and brown. His eyes held their own story; she was lost into his very depths, which she noticed, now glared upon her angrily. She turned her attention back to the window.

 

“Thank you,” she mumbled, she said trying to sound grateful. However, she was not able to illustrate. She hated to have help from men; all her life, men have used her for her money and power…not to mention her incredible body. `Independence is a good thing,' she thought, with a hidden smile.

 

 

Inuyasha sat next to her; he grumbled something under his breath about ungrateful women. He smiled when he heard her thank him; however, he could see that his flight would be uncomfortable. He almost wished to sit next to someone who actually had a heart and not some uptight, overworked-not to mention beautiful-bitch next to him. To top it off, she still did not reveal her name.

 

“You are quite welcome, miss… I'm sorry; I still did not catch your name.” Inuyasha repeated, trying to coax her again for her elusive name.

 

She turned her head around, and gave her full attention. “Ok. I will say this once, and by the way you dress, lets hope you have the intelligence to go along with your attire.” She paused, and watched his face freeze before her eyes. Her eyes narrowed, then she continued, “The reason you do not have my name is because I choose not to give it to you. Yes, I am grateful for your help, however I do not need it, nor did I ask for it. So do me a favor and shut the fuck up!” She yelled at him before turning her back on him once again. Satisfied that she had won her sovereignty, she rested her arms to her head and used them as an uncomfortable pillow. She slowly shut her eyes.

 

His mouth was agape as he listened to her. This beauty before him was nothing but a fire-breathing dragon…and she just flamed him, just for asking her name. That was the breaking point, for Inuyasha. Here he was trying to be polite, yet her snobby behavior drove at his inner-demon-challenging him. The urge to dominate her and put her in her place was in full effect. `Growling wouldn't be a wise at this moment.' He would not have his inner demon hurt her. He would have to handle her under his spell, while he fidgeted with his concealment bracelet. However, his demon side was much stronger, with the desire to put her in her place, if only to fix his wounded pride. Therefore, he did.

 

“You ungrateful bitch!” he yelled, causing the passengers to turn their heads hearing the commotion.

 

 

Her eyes snapped open, with shock. `What did he just call me?' she asked herself, while she tried to see if she had indeed heard him right. She knew that she was the one who pissed him off. She did not care, and she would probably never see him again after this flight. Before she was able to retort, the captain of the plane announced that they were taking off in five minutes and to make sure that they were strapped into their seats. When the announcement was over, she continued where she left off.

 

“I do not think that it is right for you to just assume who I am, because I sure the hell don't know who you are! Moreover, just because I do not want to talk to you does not give you the right to sit there and judge me. However, yes…I am aware that sometimes I can be shrewd.” She paused, and waited for him to stop chuckling. “Is there something funny, Inuyasha?”

 

 

His mirth left quickly, to be replaced with a roguish expression; he had to admit to himself that she was very fascinating. Her scent was driving him mad with lust; her sizzling temper could easily surpass his.

 

“Why, yes, miss, there is. When was the last time you removed that boot, which has been so tightly pushed up your ass?” he asked her with seeping venom. His chilling stare glared into her now widened eyes.

 

She turned to look at him, and chuckled slightly. “Since, I had to sit next to an ass like you!” she retorted, with mirth. She was thankful of her quick-wittedness. She didn't let his snide comment upset her. She smiled at him and then continued to ignore him the rest of the flight. She pulled a set of headsets out of the cubby, which was across from where she was sitting.

 

`Ah, listening to music would definitely distract me from this god-awful flight. And to think, I'm sitting with this arrogant, egotistical asshole for two whole hours. Oh, god if I don't kill him!' she thought. She fidgeted with the tuner, as she tried to tune in a station. `Oh please work, I don't want to hear him… please you stupid piece of crap…' She sighed when she could not find a station. Frustrated, she threw the headset back into the cubby, and then slammed the small door shut.

 

He could not help but laugh at her display, because it was something he would probably do. “Hey, Dragon Lady, what seems to be the problem?” he asked her, hoping that she would take the bait and bicker with him some more. For some sick, twisted reason, he was enjoying her misery. However, was disappointed when she continued to ignore him.

 

 

The engines roared into life. It sent Kagome into a panicked frenzy. She made sure that her seatbelt was on and fastened tightly. “I hate flying…calm down…it will all be over soon,” she tried to reassure herself. She hoped that they would not crash, and that she would make it to her destination safely. She tightened her grip on the hard black armrests, her body tensed in the chair. She closed her eyes, and prayed that soon they would be in the air. After feeling the inertia dissipate, she opened her eyes; sweat beads formed on her brow while her heart raced, thumping in her chest.

 

Inuyasha however, loved to fly. It thrilled him that, over the centuries, man could invent such a beast. He looked over at her, and noticed that she had a death grip on the helpless armrests. His laughter echoed throughout the small aircraft. “Isn't flying fun?” he asked her. He found that he could smell nothing but fear radiating off her.

 

She opened her eyes when he spoke. She turned a cold, hard stare at the man before her. “What is your deal? Are you that stupid? Do I look like I am enjoying myself? No, I am not! I have to sit here next to you…you stupid jerk!” she howled at him and drew the attention of the stewardess.

 

 

“Miss? Is there a problem here?” The flight attendant asked in a stern voice.

 

 

`I know that voice. Where do I know that voice?' she repeated in her head until she looked up, and cringed. `Oh, this is just great. My day keeps getting better by the minute. Not only do I have to sit next to this asshole, I now have to endure the vivacious blond again.' She sighed. The very thought angered her even more. She unbuckled her belt and arose from her seat. “Yes there is a problem,” she paused, and then pointed her finger at the man sitting next to her. She narrowed her eyes wickedly at him. “He is the problem. I demand that either I move, or he does, because I do not think I can restrain myself from hurting him any longer. Now if you will excuse me,” she said, as she grabbed her purse, “I am going to the ladies room. He had better be gone when I return!” she demanded, and then walked towards the bathroom, which was directly in the back of the plane.

 

The stewardess sighed and gave an apologetic look towards the handsome man. “I'm sorry this has happened.” she said kindly, and then smiled at him. “There isn't any more seating, therefore I cannot move you to another location.”

 

Inuyasha smirked. “That's ok, I understand. My girlfriend hates to fly and she is rather upset at the moment. I feel that I was insensitive. I think what she could use when she gets back is water and maybe some aspirin.” He knew what he said was wrong, but he wasn't going to give up on his tigress yet.

 

“Of course sir. However, I'm not allowed to permit aspirin. It's company policy. Would you two like anything else, to make your flight more comfortable?” she inquired with a warm smile, her blue eyes sparkling.

 

“No thank you,” Inuyasha replied with an ominous undertone. This woman was really starting to irk him. Her cheerful behavior was enough to make his bile rise.

 

“Very well sir. I will be back with a bottle of water,” she said, this time with a bit more spirit.

 

Kagome gazed at herself in the mirror. Big, beautiful eyes stared back at her. Her facial features were flawless. There were not any signs of aging, and she looked like she just turned eighteen all over again. However, no matter how her beauty defined her grace, she was just miserable. Sexually frustrated, she ended up meeting wrong kinds of men. Now, she was piled down with the responsibility of buying crumbling businesses to turn them into improved conglomerate, until she decided to sell them. She had become ruthless over the years, and with the help of greed and power, it pushed her over the circumference.

 

She straightened out her V-necked suit jacket. She smoothed the fine fabric and pulled out the wrinkles in her skirt. She undid her French twist, and gladly ran her hands through her long raven-colored hair. She made sure that it was tangle free. She felt calmer being away from that crude man. Unfortunately, she could not hide in the lavatory the entire flight. She stepped out of the one-man bathroom, and hoped Inuyasha was removed from her presence.

 

 

She frowned when she saw him again. Approaching him, she placed her had on her hip. “What in god's name are you still doing sitting here? I thought I told that dim-witted blonde that I wanted you removed!” she yelled again, once more causing a scene.

 

 

Inuyasha stood up; he was getting really tired of her, and would do anything to just shut her up. However, she looked like a goddess approaching him, her long black hair cascading down her shoulders. She looked sexy and wanted to get closer; he could feel her tense when he had approached her. He pulled her body closer to his. “I'm sorry,” he whispered in her ear, before he reached up and pinched her nerve in the back of her neck, rendering her unconscious. Before she fell, he carefully placed her back into her seat, and buckled her up. A smile graced his face, and welcomed the silence. He growled when the blonde-haired woman approached him once more.

 

“Is everything ok?” she asked, curious of why the girl collapsed.

 

“Yes, she's pregnant with my baby. I guess the motion of the jet has made her queasy. Would you be a dear and hand me a hot cloth, please?” he asked, he tried not to laugh. `Oh if she only knew what I was telling them about you.' He gulped at the dreadful thought. `I would probably be castrated or have my head bitten off. Either way, she can never find out…oh, what do I care? It's not like I'm ever going to see her again after this flight.' He smiled at the very thought. No matter how much he lusted after her, she was just too much for one person to handle.

 

“Right away, sir.” she smiled, while she headed back to grab the warm towel out of the steamer with a pair of tongs.

 

She returned quickly, and left the man with a very hot towel. He placed it over her head. He leaned back and closed his eyes. When his thoughts then turned to his brother, a smile appeared on his face. `Brother it has been far to long.' He remembered the last time he saw his brother, right before their parents were brutally murdered. He had left with his mate Rin after the funeral. They both inherited the family's fortune, and their father's firm. After receiving word from his brother, he learned that he was now vacationing and wanted him to take some time off work and join him. Inuyasha loved his brother dearly and had no problem packing immediately. He glanced at the girl. Once more, he closed his eyes for some much-needed rest. `God knows when she will come to again, and I hope to god that I'm not here to witness this dragon's wrath.'

 

Kagome awoke to the screeching of tires as the small plane landed. `How long was I out for?' she thought, as she rubbed the back of her neck. The captain once again addressed his flight and cheers roared through the aircraft for a successful landing. A smile crossed her face. `Finally Miami, and I never have to run into him again.' She reached down and lifted her purse off the ground, dusting it off. She glanced over at Inuyasha, and saw him still asleep. `Should I wake him up…nah, let him sleep…I can't do that…what if he misses his flight, or wherever he needs to go… I know I'm spiteful but not this vindictive.' She mentally fought with herself, deciding whether to rouse him or leave him. She decided she would waken him, when they were going to release the passengers. On the other note, she did not remember falling asleep or sitting down. She thought about it and shrieked. “Inuyasha, what the hell did you do to me?” she screamed in his ear. She woke the sleeping half-demon.

 

Inuyasha was well awake, when he also felt the landing; he jumped out of his seat when she screamed his name in his sensitive ears. He once again thanked Kaede about the concealment spell, for he knew that his true white ears already flattened on top of his head. “What the hell did you do that for?” he asked her, still trying to get the pounding out of his head. “Do you have to yell so loud?” he questioned her again, while he narrowed his eyes coldly.

 

“What the hell do you mean, what did I do that for? What the fuck did you do too me? You know by all rights I should have you arrested!” she threatened him. Her voice was dark and sinister. Her temper was getting the better of her, and once again drawing attention to herself.

 

“Lady I do not know what your problem is and nor do I care. However, you needed to be silenced so I wouldn't have to hear your shrewd voice any longer. Oh, and if I ever run into you again-which I pray to god that I wont-you should really consider removing whatever is up your ass!” he snapped. He stood up and walked away from the speechless women.

 

The stewardess witnessed the conversation and, again saw the handsome man storm by her. “I hope you had a good flight…” She did not even get a chance to finish her sentence, when she heard him swear at her.

 

“Fuck off!” he retorted, while stormed off the aircraft and into the awaiting lobby. He turned and looked at the flight schedule. Another curse rang from his mouth. His flight had become delayed for forty-five minutes, due to bad weather conditions. `Damn this is just great!' he growled.

 

Kagome arose from her seat. She was the last one on board; she had waited so she did not have to rush out of the airplane. She also noticed Inuyasha left his briefcase next to his seat. She reached down and picked up the black leather case. Placing it on a seat, she reached up and struggled with her own carry-on from the tight cubby above her seat. After it almost crashed on top of her head, she cursed. Her purse rested nicely on her shoulder while she carried the briefcase in one hand and dragged her luggage with the other. `Damn him!' she thought.

 

Finally, she was about to exit the plane when the animated blonde-haired woman stopped her. “ I hope that you had a nice flight,” she paused. Kagome could not help but turn around and give the girl a piece of her mind. Until she heard, the dreaded words come out of the dimwit's mouth. “Congratulations to you and your boyfriend,” she praised, smiling before the woman.

 

`What in the hell is this woman talking about?' she inquired to herself, narrowing her eyes at the woman before her. “Congratulations to what, exactly…and who is my boyfriend?” she asked. If she had her hands free, they would've form into fists, ready to execute the punch.

 

“Why,” she could not help but chuckle, “In support of you and your newborn baby.”

 

“What! You nitwit! I'm not pregnant and nor do I have a boyfriend! As I said to you before, I asked you to move him or myself, but no…I come back and he is still sitting next to me. I will definitely be speaking with your supervisor!” she bellowed, seeing the girl's mirth slowly turned into a frown. A satisfied smile washed over Kagome's face, as she watched the girl before her.

 

“I'm sorry, miss. However, there was nothing I could do, all the seats were filled. Please, is there any way I can make it up to you?” she pleaded, trying hard to hold the tears back. She always knew that she was a sensitive soul and never before in her career had felt so humiliated.

 

“No. It's a little late for that now, isn't it!” Kagome snapped in a dry tone. She could not stay; she needed to get away before she decided to drop all of her luggage and hurt her. `Calm down, Kagome,' she thought to herself, `remember what your anger management counselor said: inhale, and exhale.' She did just that, taking in three deep breaths, she felt better and turned her back on the blonde-haired woman and walked out feeling exuberant.

 

 

She exited the hanger, and looked around for the next flight schedule. She knew that the layover in Miami was only fifteen minutes, before her next flight departed. She sighed when she looked at the monitor. “What? A forty-five minute delay?” she said with a hint of agitation.

 

“Yeah sweetheart, and thanks for bringing back my briefcase,” Inuyasha whispered in her ear. He could not believe that he would run into her again. `Damn! She is on the same flight,' he sighed.

 

Kagome froze when she heard him whisper in her ear. Part of her wanted to melt with the closeness of his touch, but unfortunately, vexation won out. Turning around quickly, she slapped him hard across his face, and left a welt behind her destruction. “You son of a bitch!” she screamed, “how dare you tell people that I'm your girlfriend and that I'm pregnant with your child? Like that would ever happen! I would never sleep with someone like you!” she continued to vociferously at him. She poked her finger in his chest to emphasize her ire further.

 

`Damn, she hits hard,' he thought rubbing the side of his face. “Look, lady…I only told her that so you did not look like some uptight bitch!” he retorted. Although he could smell her desire when he whispered in her ear, she did not need to know that he knew. “Furthermore, as far as me actually touching you, I would rather be dead,” he declared coldly, looking into her greenish brown hue. However, his statement was not entirely true-he wanted to touch her, kiss her watch her squirm underneath him.

 

“I hate you, you sick twisted son of a bitch! Stay the fuck away from me on the next flight!” she roared, before she dropped his briefcase next to his feet. She turned around and stalked off. `Oh thank God, I really needed to get away from him. He was driving me mad. I need a drink!' she deliberated. She looked for the nearest bar. Kagome noticed the time, and realized she only had a half an hour left before her flight. `Hopefully the weather will clear up by then.' She half-smiled at the notion.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When she arrived at the small bar, a tall man with black hair tied back in a ponytail approached her. From what she could see, his eyes were brown and his blue jeans enhanced his masculinity. He looked younger than she; he was-maybe-in his early twenties. She was thirty-one had no interest in the younger man, and this man who thought that he could woo her had another thing coming. She smiled at him, almost toying with her prey; she batted her long lashes at him, hoping that she'd get a free drink.

 

“What's your poison?” he asked her seductively, while giving her a chaste kiss on her hand.

 

“Jack and Coke please,” she grinned innocently, and then pulled her hand out of his grasp. `Bingo!' she mentally cheered, congratulating herself.

 

“Hey Ted!” he yelled out to the bartender.

 

A stout older man approached the awaiting couple; he had a floral shirt on and a beige pair of khakis. “What can I get you two?” he smiled, as he wiped the area with a damp cloth.

 

“She will have a Jack and Coke and you can bring me my usual.” He smiled, as he laid the money on the counter.

 

“Sure thing, Koga.”

 

“I'm sorry, but I seem to forget myself,” he chuckled, while stroking the top of his head in embarrassment. “Lets start this over. Hello, my name is Koga…and your name is?”

 

“Thank you Koga, my name is Kagome,” she said, extending her hand out to his.

 

“Aw, so the dragon lady herself does have a name!” Inuyasha witted, as he approached from behind her.

 

She tensed up when hearing his voice; a scowl appeared on her face. “Oh, it seems to me I have a stalker on my hands. Don't you have anything better to do than pester me?” she inquired, without glancing over her shoulder.

 

Inuyasha could not help but stop when he saw her as she sat at the bar and had a friendly conversation with that wolf. He seethed with rage. `This bitch will not even give me her name, but when a stranger comes around, she is all chatter and flatter. Figures…typical wench would do something like that. Well I'll just show her.' He smiled as he approached her clandestinely from behind. “So the dragon lady finally removed whatever was impaled up her tight ass.”

 

“Fuck off!”

 

“Well. If you like, you can help me with that in the bathroom…or would you rather have him get off first?” he inquired.

 

Koga could not believe what he was hearing, “hey! What the hell are you doing? Just who in the hell do you think you are?”

 

“Who I'm is none of your fucking business!” Inuyasha snapped back. He approached the annoying wolf and got in his face, fists tightly clenching his sides. Neither one noticing that she had walked away from the sudden altercation.

 

“Those two are such idiots!” she mumbled, as she left the bar. With a steady pace, she approached the ticket counter, handing over her ticket to the stewardess.

 

“Thank you. Please have a seat. We will be calling your flight shortly.”

 

Kagome nodded and sat next to the window. She watched the sun's bright golden rays dissipate the sudden storm. `Florida?' she smirked at the silent thought. She knew how unpredictable the weather could be here.
