Chapter 5:
The group went heading east, where they heard a rumor about a few jewel shards were located. As usual Inuyasha was at the head of the group with Miroku beside him. Kagome and Sango in the middle; watching Rin and Shippo play in front of them with Kirara. Sesshomaru is with Ah-Un in the back; a good distance away, but watches Rin closely as well as a certain futuristic girl's legs.
"Hey Inuyasha, is there something wrong with you and Kagome?" Miroku asks.
"Not that I know of, why?"
"Because she keeps being distant towards you, and on top of that she invited Lord Sesshomaru to the group."
"Yea there is something suspicious going on between them," he replies as he looks back at Kagome. 'Has she found out about me and Kouga? Miroku is right; she has been acting distant towards me ever since she came back from the well yesterday night,' Inuyasha thought.
"Hey Kagome?"
"Yes Sango."
"Have you seen the way Sesshomaru stares at you?"
"No why," while asking she looks back at the taiyoukai and no doubt she finds him staring at her legs; seconds later his gaze clashed with the blue of her eyes. As she looks into his eyes she sees a flash of longing within them. Blushing and looking away she misses the smirk that adorned his features and asks herself, 'could that have been a flash of loneliness and longing I seen,' but before she could answer she was interrupted.
"Kags is there something going on between you and Sesshomaru?"
Feeling appalled by her question she replies, "No there is nothing between us."
Not believing her Sango pushes even further, "Kagome I know you don't want to tell me if there is something going on between you and the taiyoukai, but I believe you should stop it before the feelings get any deeper. Think of how you would break Inuyasha's heart." Getting angry at Sango's statement she thinks, 'How dare she even say that; she knows how many times Inuyasha has broken my heart running off to Kikyo, and now he goes off fucking Kouga. If she only knew the hanyou was with someone else already!' "I can't believe you said that! How many times has Inuyasha broken my heart huh?!" She screamed running into the woods. 'How dare she? I would rather be happy and loved than always becoming heartbroken every time Inuyasha runs off rutting with who knows what,' she fumes. A tear slid down her cheek when she thought about Inuyasha running off, then suddenly, 'Oh no I sense 5 shards coming quickly.' Coming in fast were five snake demons charging her way and stops ten feet away. "Give usssss the jewel shardsss miko," the leader demanded. "Never!" and with that the snakes charge at her and she screams.
Hearing what she had said; he knew that she was talking about him. 'She's right I have been breaking her heart every time. Before I was running to Kikyo, and now Kouga has my heart. It's time to let her go,' Inuyasha thought as his ears fell to his skull. "Let's stop and wait for her to come back; I do not want to get sit for following her when she is this angry." And as everyone waited for her to return they heard a piercing scream coming from where Kagome left. Everyone rushed to go save said person leaving Kirara, the children, and Ah-Un behind; Sesshomaru being the first to leave. "Kirara stay and guard the kids until I come back," Sango yells as she runs with the others towards the danger.
------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------
Watching the others run into the forest to go save Kagome; Rin looks over to Shippo with a sad expression and asks with a sniffle, "Do you think Lady Kagome will be ok?"
Walking towards her; he pats her on the back with his little clawed hand and reassures, "I'm sure she will; Kagome always makes it out alive." Sitting beside Rin; Shippo asks what has been on his mind ever since the taiyoukai joined them, "Rin why does Sesshomaru keep staring at Kagome?"
Rin giggles forgetting her sad moment, "That's because he likes her silly."
"Oh ok." 'Hmmm I guess I wouldn't mind seeing Sesshomaru as a father figure than Inuyasha anyway. So if the demon lord likes Kagome, then I won't get in his way in pursuing her,' Shippo thought. "Hey Rin let's play tag!"
"Ok," she replies with her famous toothy grin excitedly. Getting up from where they were sitting, the kids begin to play awaiting the others return.
------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------
As the moment she screamed when dodging the snakes tail, she seen a white flash killing it instantly cutting off his head. "Thank you Sesshomaru, I thought I was a goner," Kagome says with a loss of breath.
"Hn," the demon lord replies and seeing that the others were taking care with the rest of the snake demons, he decides to sit it out for the remainder of the time. 'Damn that Sesshomaru, he could at least kill another demon or two he sees us struggling,' Inuyasha thought as he blocked his opponent's attack.
"Inuyasha, all the snake demons have jewel shards in their heads," Kagome yells out while plucking the jewel from the skull of Sesshomaru's kill. Hearing at what Kagome told him; he charged to the nearest snake jumping in the air to try to cut down the snake in half from the head down. "Now I got you, you sorry excuse for a worm," Inuyasha says. Sensing Inuyasha's attack the snake demon quickly dodges and hits Inuyasha in the torso with his tail slamming him into a tree. "God dammit you slippery fuck!" Inuyasha yells. "What's wrong hanyou, am I too fast for you," the snake taunted while charging at Inuyasha.
Miroku and Sango were barely keeping up with their opponent themselves. Miroku couldn't use his wind tunnel because of the scared jewel shards embedded in their heads, so he decided to use his sutras; throwing them at the snake while dodging its blows. As his sutras were placed onto said snake, he says a spell and the snake instantly went into ash. Sango was blocking every attack she could manage while finding an opening and taking her katana slicing the snake from the bottom and up. "Inuyasha; watch out that snake is heading right towards you," Kagome shouts while retrieving her bow and arrow. Sango heard what Kagome shouted to Inuyasha she instantly threw her boomerang towards Inuyasha's enemy.
Before she could shoot to kill the snake heading for Inuyasha; she seen Sango's boomerang slice through the demon; smashing it into pieces. With everyone so engrossed in their kill and plucking the jewel shards; they didn't notice the leader dig itself underground. As if on cue the said demon burst through the dirt and wrapped its tail around Kagome holding her into the air. Screaming she yells, "Let me go you ugly reptilian."
"No one comes near or I will squeeze the life out of her," turning towards Kagome, "Now give me your ssssacred jewel sssshardss ningen, or I will squeeze you to death." Proving his point he squeezed around her tighter. Seeing Kagome in her predicament they were scared for her life; they did not want to charge and try to kill the demon in fear they might hurt Kagome, so they stayed put.
"I will never give you the shard," Kagome hissed gasping for breath.
"Very well prepare to die!" Afraid for her life she quickly closes her eyes to pull out all her powers she could manage and instantly purified her opponent hearing a piercing scream as her result and falls towards the ground, but Sesshomaru instantly catches her.
Gazing into her saviors eyes she quietly says, "t-thank you for c-catching me," she stutters while blushing. He smirks and replies with an 'hn.' Trying to get down from his grasp she feels him hold her tighter. "You can let me go now," she squeaks.
"I suppose so, but what if I don't want to?" As if she couldn't blush even more; she so happens to do just that at his comment. Ruining the moment as always Inuyasha storms over screaming with the others close behind, "Oi, what fuck Kagome; could you not get caught all the time?!"
Not in the mood for his bickering and angry at him for ruining the moment between her and the taiyoukai; she screams, "SIT," wiggles out of Sesshomaru's hold and walks back to the kids fuming, with Miroku and Sango following her.
"Little brother you really are a fool," Sesshomaru says and calmly walks back to the children as well.
------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------
The kids stop playing as they heard a rustle from the trees and bushes, and as they turned they saw Kagome walking towards them. "Kagome! You're alright," Shippo shouts while running up to her with Rin behind giving her a hug. Returning Shippo's hug, "Of course I am sweetheart."
"I am glad you returned to us safely Lady Kagome," Rin says happily.
"Thank you Rin," she replies while bending down to give her a hug as well. Then at that moment everyone came into the clearing with a grumbling Inuyasha.
"Oi, we still have some daylight, so let's get moving," Inuyasha says as Sango hands Kagome the rest of the jewel shards.
Walking for another two hours the sun started to set. Sensing most of the group tiredness Inuyasha decided to stop for the night and camp out. "Oi, let's stop here for the night and return shard hunting in the morning." With that comment Inuyasha has made, everyone excluding the demon lord, sighed with relief.
When everyone started to set up camp Kagome stops and asked, "Who will go out hunting for us tonight?" Rin stands up clapping happily, "Lord Sesshomaru will do it, he's the best hunter there is."
Feeling everyone gaze turned to him; he responds with an 'hn.' At that moment he senses the kit walking slowly towards him and looks down. He watches the kit make movements with his feet back and forth shyly, "You wish to join me on the hunt?" Shippo nods his head slowly whispering a 'hai.' "Very well, come with me." Expression changing quickly from shy to being elated, he jumps on the taiyoukai's shoulder and off they went to go hunt for food.
Gathering her bathing supplies and taking Rin's hand she turns to Inuyasha, "Inuyasha, can you and Miroku go and gain some firewood for the camp fire?"
"Oi, why the fuck do I have to do it?" Glaring at him with her hands on her hips she replies, "Because if you don't help make camp then you will not be eating."
"Fine, come on Miroku let's go," and with that him and Miroku left to find some wood to set for the fire. Calling out, "And make sure that pervert doesn't spy on us while we are bathing." Turning towards Sango while hearing a faint 'Kagome you wound me' in the background she asks, "Sango would you like to join Rin and I to bathe in the hot springs?"
"Sure Kagome." Joining Kagome and Rin, they were off to the springs.
------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------
Walking in the woods there was silence between Shippo and a certain demon lord. Being the first to break the muteness he asks, "You never went hunting before?" Looking at the taiyoukai Shippo replies, "Mmm no, before it was just me and my dad, and he was killed by the Thunder Brothers before he got the chance to teach me how to hunt. Then I met Inuyasha and Kagome and they helped me get revenge, and I've been traveling with them ever since."
"Hn, Inuyasha never taught you how to fend for yourself?"
"No, he always beats me, and steals my food. He's a big meanie," Shippo says sadly sniffling.
Feeling protective over the distraught kit he reassures him, "Well today you are going to learn, that way you can start hunting on your own." 'I really hate to see children cry. Rin is making me soft.' Hearing those words; Shippo immediately becomes happy once again.
"Lord Sesshomaru?"
"Hn."
Shippo shyly asked, "How did you come upon Rin?"
"She tried caring for me when I was badly hurt after a battle. I never wanted her help, so in return I tried to scare her off, but all she did was smile at me. Once I was well enough to travel again I left, and when I was a distance away; I smelled her blood. She was killed by wolves, so I revived her with Tenseiga. She has been following me ever since." 'Wow, I never heard him say so much before, and how he would let a human child follow him. There must be more to this taiyoukai than he lets on; he is just what Kagome needs,' Shippo thought.
Stopping Sesshomaru senses two rabbits and a boar close by. "Can you sense the prey kit?"
Shippo stops and spreads his aura to find the prey. "Hai, there are a couple of rabbits and a boar. The rabbits are behind that bush some feet ahead and the boar is a little farther ways up."
"Very good, now when hunting prey, you must stay silent and not make any sound." Hearing the demon lord's first lesson; Shippo approaches the rabbits silently. "Now when you are in close range go in for the kill. The quickest way to kill your prey is snapping their neck." As soon as Sesshomaru's lesson was said; Shippo immediately grabs his prey snapping their necks instantly. Looking around for Sesshomaru; he sees the taiyoukai with his own kill and shouts, "I killed them Sesshomaru, and I didn't even break a sweat," He says happily.
"Hn, you did very well kit. Now let's return back to camp." And off they went with their kill.
------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------
"Finally a hot spring," Kagome said excitedly. Taking off her clothes, folding them and placing them by the tree she climbs into the spring; followed by a giddy Rin and a sad Sango. "Ah this feels so good. It has been two days since I have taken a bath," she says while wetting her soap and cloth. "Come here Rin, let me wash you." "Ok Lady Kagome." As she began to bathe Rin she looks over to Sango who looked extremely sad. "Sango are you alright?"
"No Kagome, it was my entire fault that you left the group angry and were almost killed by that demon, I'm so very sorry," she replies at the verge of tears.
"Sango its ok, don't blame yourself; you were just trying to be helpful and as a role of a big sister, you were looking for my best interest. So there is nothing to apologize for."
"Ok," sniffling feeling better she finishes washing herself and says, "Well I am done getting cleaned, might as well leave and keep an eye on that perverted monk."
Kagome giggles and replies, "Ok Sango, be careful going back to camp."
"Lady Sango may I go back with you," Rin asks.
"Sure cutie," and with that said Rin and Sango dries off and place on their clothes. Waving goodbye, they set off back to camp leaving Kagome to her bathing.
Finishing washing herself, she sits on a flat rock relaxing in the water. Silently crying because she does not understand why Inuyasha can't love her, so she whispers to herself, "Why does he not love me?" Crying harder she cries herself to sleep, not knowing someone was watching her.
Coming from the darkness of the forest; he calmly and silently approaches the sleeping onna. Bending down looking upon her face admiring it; he wipes away the salt water trails. Looking at her lips he wonders how soft they are and before he knew it he was kissing her. 'Her lips are so soft.'
Waking from her slumber, she feels a slight presser on her lips and slowly opens her eyes. Stiffening slightly at what she saw; she couldn't believe the fearsome demon lord was kissing her. 'It feels so right,' Kagome thought, so she decided to close her eyes and deepen the kiss. Sesshomaru freezes at her forwardness, but then begins to relish her lips. Licking her bottom lip asking silently for entrance, she quickly obliged. Sticking his tongue into her mouth, he slowly tasted and explored each part of her wet cavern. 'She tastes so sweet,' he moving his hand down south he touches her curls. Feeling his hand move down; she stops the kiss and moves away from him. "This is wrong; I can't do this. Inuyasha will become devastated," Kagome says shakily.
"Does he even think about your feelings? No! He treats you as trash and runs off rutting and mating with another," Sesshomaru growls.
'He's right, Every time he runs off I become heart broken, so why not have something for myself for once.' "Inuyasha might treat you as trash, but I will treat you as treasure. My treasure; which I will cherish as long as I live."A tear sliding down her cheek she replies,"You're right; I deserve to be happy just as much as Inuyasha," Kagome says while moving back over to Sesshomaru; kissing him deeply.
*********CITRUS*********
Kissing her back with as much force; he nips her bottom lip softly while sucking on it. Sticking his tongue between her lips once again; he slowly caresses her tongue with his; relishing her taste. Placing open mouth kisses down her neck, she softly moans as his hand slowly drops down to her left breast. Squeezing her breast slightly; he massages it as he runs his tongue down her neck sucking and nipping; loving the way she mewls. Picking her up from the spring he lays her on the grass. "Sesshomaru," she whispers trying to hide herself from him. "Shhh, just enjoy and don't hide from me," he says pinning her hands above her head as he goes back exploring her body after receiving a shy nod for him to continue.
Kissing her neck again he slowing kisses down to her left right breast taking in her perk nipple; he sucks hard on it nipping it with his fang, but not hard to break skin while he tweaks the other nipple between his forefinger and thumb twisting it a bit. She moans loving the way he makes her body feel. "Sess please," she begs as she feel him run his fingers down through her curls to her sensitive bud while starting to suckle the other nipple. As he stops sucking the perk nipple he looks into her eyes seeing how clouded they are he rub her clit teasingly. Kagome moans louder, "Sess please don't tease me." "Tell me what you want," Sesshomaru says as he kisses down her stomach to her nether regions sucking in her clit. Hearing her pant and moan his name he became rock hard. "Tell me what you want Ka-Go-Me." Hearing the way he said her name, she almost has an orgasm and began to grow even hotter. "I w-want y-you to f-finger me," she replies in a whisper. Obliging her request he plunges his finger into her heat hissing at the tightness. 'Damn she's so tight,' He thought as he slowly begins working his finger in and out of her, 'and she's so wet.' Feeling her stomach tighten as he added another finger while picking up speed, she starts to ride them. 'Mmmm this feels so good; I am almost there.' Sensing her coming close to her completion he speeds up more while sucking her clit fast and hard. "Sesshomaru!" Kagome screams as she came onto his fingers.
*********END*********
Smirking he stares at her while licking his fingers clean. 'She tastes divine,' the demon lord thought as he picked her up and placed her back into the springs. "Rinse off, it's time to go back to camp."
Seeing his bulge through his hakamas she blushes and asks, "But what about you?"
Smirking at her, "Don't worry, we'll get to that very soon, but first there is a certain hanyou that needs to be dealt with," and off he went. Quickly rinsing off and clothing, she sets off after him with a delighted smile upon her face.
------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------
Coming back from getting fire wood; they placed the wood down in the middle of the camp and set the fire. As the fire was set; Miroku and Inuyasha saw Sesshomaru and Shippo approach with the food. "I'm going to go scout the area for demons," Inuyasha says, and was off in a second. "Look Miroku, I caught two rabbits," Shippo says happily while putting them by the campfire, "and it's all thanks to Lord Sesshomaru of course."
"Well done Shippo," Miroku acknowledges while gaining steel rods to place the food on to cook. Setting the boar down by the rabbits gutted and all Sesshomaru leaves the camp.
Coming into the camp with Rin; Sango asks, "Where is Inuyasha and Sesshomaru," while letting go of Rin's hand so she can play with Shippo.
"Inuyasha went to scout the area and Sesshomaru just left after he placed down his kill," Miroku replies.
Talking amongst themselves waiting for the others return, they never noticed Sesshomaru coming back with a pleased smile upon his face and three minutes later Kagome following closely behind with the same grin.
"Hey guys where did Inuyasha go?"
"He went to see if there were any danger lurking."
"Oh ok," Kagome replies while going to play with the kids waiting for Inuyasha to return, so she and Sesshomaru can taunt and trick him about Kouga. 'This should be amusing,' Kagome thought.
Sitting around the campfire everyone waited for Inuyasha to return. Just a few moments later they saw Inuyasha come into the clearing.
"Welcome back Inuyasha," Miroku says while handing him some boar and rabbit.
"Thanks," Inuyasha replies while taking his meal and hopping into a nearby tree. A moment of silence has passed and that's when Sesshomaru gave Kagome an evil smirk upon his face. She nods and says, "Hey Inuyasha? Kouga has been coming around a lot lately; do you know the reason why?"
As if on cue, Inuyasha falls out of the tree getting up angry with a slightly paled face. Gaining everyone else's attention he stutters, "W-Why the fuck w-would I know that w-wench? That wimpy wolf is always around where he is not wanted!" 'I hope she doesn't see through my bluff. And I really miss him.' Then his bastard of a brother had to say something. "Little brother, I have not smelled the dead priestess lately; can you tell me why," the taiyoukai states smirking.
Fuming Inuyasha yells, "Shut the fuck up Sesshomaru, before I slice your throat," he growls out. Sesshomaru smirk widens as Kagome piped up, "Inuyasha, I sense two jewel shards coming this way fast." Everyone gets ready for the new guest, except for Sesshomaru and Kagome of course, but was shocked at what they saw and heard. Oblivious to his senses; Inuyasha shouts happily, "Oh my god Kouga is on his way," fixing his hair and clothes quickly he asks, "How do I look?! Does my hair look ok?!" And at that moment everyone looked at Inuyasha as if he grew a second head.
------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------
AAACHOOO! 'Someone must be talking about me,' Kouga thought as he went on finishing with his bath. 'I miss Inuyasha. I think I'm going to go see him tomorrow.' Getting out of the river and dressed, he went to his den to sleep and await a day to go see his koishii.

Chapter 5:

Kagome and Sango in the middle; watching Rin and Shippo play in front of them with Kirara. Sesshomaru is with Ah-Un in the back; a good distance away, but watches Rin closely as well as a certain futuristic girl's legs.
"Hey Inuyasha, is there something wrong with you and Kagome?" Miroku asks.
"Not that I know of, why?"
"Because she keeps being distant towards you, and on top of that she invited Lord Sesshomaru to the group."
"Yea there is something suspicious going on between them," he replies as he looks back at Kagome. 'Has she found out about me and Kouga? Miroku is right; she has been acting distant towards me ever since she came back from the well yesterday night,' Inuyasha thought.

"Kirara stay and guard the kids until I come back," Sango yells as she runs with the others towards the danger.
------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------
Watching the others run into the forest to go save Kagome; Rin looks over to Shippo with a sad expression and asks with a sniffle, "Do you think Lady Kagome will be ok?"
Walking towards her; he pats her on the back with his little clawed hand and reassures, "I'm sure she will; Kagome always makes it out alive." Sitting beside Rin; Shippo asks what has been on his mind ever since the taiyoukai joined them, "Rin why does Sesshomaru keep staring at Kagome?"

"Oh ok." 'Hmmm I guess I wouldn't mind seeing Sesshomaru as a father figure than Inuyasha anyway. So if the demon lord likes Kagome, then I won't get in his way in pursuing her,' Shippo thought. "Hey Rin let's play tag!"
"Ok," she replies with her famous toothy grin excitedly. Getting up from where they were sitting, the kids begin to play awaiting the others return.
------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------
As the moment she screamed when dodging the snakes tail, she seen a white flash killing it instantly cutting off his head. "Thank you Sesshomaru, I thought I was a goner," Kagome says with a loss of breath.

------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------
The kids stop playing as they heard a rustle from the trees and bushes, and as they turned they saw Kagome walking towards them. "Kagome! You're alright," Shippo shouts while running up to her with Rin behind giving her a hug. Returning Shippo's hug, "Of course I am sweetheart."
"I am glad you returned to us safely Lady Kagome," Rin says happily.

"Oi, let's stop here for the night and return shard hunting in the morning." With that comment Inuyasha has made, everyone excluding the demon lord, sighed with relief.
When everyone started to set up camp Kagome stops and asked, "Who will go out hunting for us tonight?" Rin stands up clapping happily, "Lord Sesshomaru will do it, he's the best hunter there is."
Feeling everyone gaze turned to him; he responds with an 'hn.' At that moment he senses the kit walking slowly towards him and looks down. He watches the kit make movements with his feet back and forth shyly, "You wish to join me on the hunt?" Shippo nods his head slowly whispering a 'hai.' "Very well, come with me." Expression changing quickly from shy to being elated, he jumps on the taiyoukai's shoulder and off they went to go hunt for food.
Gathering her bathing supplies and taking Rin's hand she turns to Inuyasha, "Inuyasha, can you and Miroku go and gain some firewood for the camp fire?"
"Oi, why the fuck do I have to do it?" Glaring at him with her hands on her hips she replies, "Because if you don't help make camp then you will not be eating."
"Fine, come on Miroku let's go," and with that him and Miroku left to find some wood to set for the fire. Calling out, "And make sure that pervert doesn't spy on us while we are bathing." Turning towards Sango while hearing a faint 'Kagome you wound me' in the background she asks, "Sango would you like to join Rin and I to bathe in the hot springs?"
"Sure Kagome." Joining Kagome and Rin, they were off to the springs.
------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------
Walking in the woods there was silence between Shippo and a certain demon lord. Being the first to break the muteness he asks, "You never went hunting before?" Looking at the taiyoukai Shippo replies, "Mmm no, before it was just me and my dad, and he was killed by the Thunder Brothers before he got the chance to teach me how to hunt. Then I met Inuyasha and Kagome and they helped me get revenge, and I've been traveling with them ever since."
"Hn, Inuyasha never taught you how to fend for yourself?"
"No, he always beats me, and steals my food. He's a big meanie," Shippo says sadly sniffling.
Feeling protective over the distraught kit he reassures him, "Well today you are going to learn, that way you can start hunting on your own." 'I really hate to see children cry. Rin is making me soft.' Hearing those words; Shippo immediately becomes happy once again.
"Lord Sesshomaru?"
"Hn."
Shippo shyly asked, "How did you come upon Rin?"
"She tried caring for me when I was badly hurt after a battle. I never wanted her help, so in return I tried to scare her off, but all she did was smile at me. Once I was well enough to travel again I left, and when I was a distance away; I smelled her blood. She was killed by wolves, so I revived her with Tenseiga. She has been following me ever since." 'Wow, I never heard him say so much before, and how he would let a human child follow him. There must be more to this taiyoukai than he lets on; he is just what Kagome needs,' Shippo thought.
Stopping Sesshomaru senses two rabbits and a boar close by. "Can you sense the prey kit?"
Shippo stops and spreads his aura to find the prey. "Hai, there are a couple of rabbits and a boar. The rabbits are behind that bush some feet ahead and the boar is a little farther ways up."
"Very good, now when hunting prey, you must stay silent and not make any sound." Hearing the demon lord's first lesson; Shippo approaches the rabbits silently. "Now when you are in close range go in for the kill. The quickest way to kill your prey is snapping their neck." As soon as Sesshomaru's lesson was said; Shippo immediately grabs his prey snapping their necks instantly. Looking around for Sesshomaru; he sees the taiyoukai with his own kill and shouts, "I killed them Sesshomaru, and I didn't even break a sweat," He says happily.
"Hn, you did very well kit. Now let's return back to camp." And off they went with their kill.
------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------
"Finally a hot spring," Kagome said excitedly. Taking off her clothes, folding them and placing them by the tree she climbs into the spring; followed by a giddy Rin and a sad Sango. "Ah this feels so good. It has been two days since I have taken a bath," she says while wetting her soap and cloth. "Come here Rin, let me wash you." "Ok Lady Kagome." As she began to bathe Rin she looks over to Sango who looked extremely sad. "Sango are you alright?"
"No Kagome, it was my entire fault that you left the group angry and were almost killed by that demon, I'm so very sorry," she replies at the verge of tears.
"Sango its ok, don't blame yourself; you were just trying to be helpful and as a role of a big sister, you were looking for my best interest. So there is nothing to apologize for."
"Ok," sniffling feeling better she finishes washing herself and says, "Well I am done getting cleaned, might as well leave and keep an eye on that perverted monk."
Kagome giggles and replies, "Ok Sango, be careful going back to camp."
"Lady Sango may I go back with you," Rin asks.
"Sure cutie," and with that said Rin and Sango dries off and place on their clothes. Waving goodbye, they set off back to camp leaving Kagome to her bathing.
Finishing washing herself, she sits on a flat rock relaxing in the water. Silently crying because she does not understand why Inuyasha can't love her, so she whispers to herself, "Why does he not love me?" Crying harder she cries herself to sleep, not knowing someone was watching her.
Coming from the darkness of the forest; he calmly and silently approaches the sleeping onna. Bending down looking upon her face admiring it; he wipes away the salt water trails. Looking at her lips he wonders how soft they are and before he knew it he was kissing her. 'Her lips are so soft.'
Waking from her slumber, she feels a slight presser on her lips and slowly opens her eyes. Stiffening slightly at what she saw; she couldn't believe the fearsome demon lord was kissing her. 'It feels so right,' Kagome thought, so she decided to close her eyes and deepen the kiss. Sesshomaru freezes at her forwardness, but then begins to relish her lips. Licking her bottom lip asking silently for entrance, she quickly obliged. Sticking his tongue into her mouth, he slowly tasted and explored each part of her wet cavern. 'She tastes so sweet,' he moving his hand down south he touches her curls. Feeling his hand move down; she stops the kiss and moves away from him. "This is wrong; I can't do this. Inuyasha will become devastated," Kagome says shakily.
"Does he even think about your feelings? No! He treats you as trash and runs off rutting and mating with another," Sesshomaru growls.
'He's right, Every time he runs off I become heart broken, so why not have something for myself for once.' "Inuyasha might treat you as trash, but I will treat you as treasure. My treasure; which I will cherish as long as I live."A tear sliding down her cheek she replies,"You're right; I deserve to be happy just as much as Inuyasha," Kagome says while moving back over to Sesshomaru; kissing him deeply.
*********CITRUS*********
Kissing her back with as much force; he nips her bottom lip softly while sucking on it. Sticking his tongue between her lips once again; he slowly caresses her tongue with his; relishing her taste. Placing open mouth kisses down her neck, she softly moans as his hand slowly drops down to her left breast. Squeezing her breast slightly; he massages it as he runs his tongue down her neck sucking and nipping; loving the way she mewls. Picking her up from the spring he lays her on the grass. "Sesshomaru," she whispers trying to hide herself from him. "Shhh, just enjoy and don't hide from me," he says pinning her hands above her head as he goes back exploring her body after receiving a shy nod for him to continue.
Kissing her neck again he slowing kisses down to her left right breast taking in her perk nipple; he sucks hard on it nipping it with his fang, but not hard to break skin while he tweaks the other nipple between his forefinger and thumb twisting it a bit. She moans loving the way he makes her body feel. "Sess please," she begs as she feel him run his fingers down through her curls to her sensitive bud while starting to suckle the other nipple. As he stops sucking the perk nipple he looks into her eyes seeing how clouded they are he rub her clit teasingly. Kagome moans louder, "Sess please don't tease me." "Tell me what you want," Sesshomaru says as he kisses down her stomach to her nether regions sucking in her clit. Hearing her pant and moan his name he became rock hard. "Tell me what you want Ka-Go-Me." Hearing the way he said her name, she almost has an orgasm and began to grow even hotter. "I w-want y-you to f-finger me," she replies in a whisper. Obliging her request he plunges his finger into her heat hissing at the tightness. 'Damn she's so tight,' He thought as he slowly begins working his finger in and out of her, 'and she's so wet.' Feeling her stomach tighten as he added another finger while picking up speed, she starts to ride them. 'Mmmm this feels so good; I am almost there.' Sensing her coming close to her completion he speeds up more while sucking her clit fast and hard. "Sesshomaru!" Kagome screams as she came onto his fingers.
*********END*********
Smirking he stares at her while licking his fingers clean. 'She tastes divine,' the demon lord thought as he picked her up and placed her back into the springs. "Rinse off, it's time to go back to camp."
Seeing his bulge through his hakamas she blushes and asks, "But what about you?"
Smirking at her, "Don't worry, we'll get to that very soon, but first there is a certain hanyou that needs to be dealt with," and off he went. Quickly rinsing off and clothing, she sets off after him with a delighted smile upon her face.
------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------
Coming back from getting fire wood; they placed the wood down in the middle of the camp and set the fire. As the fire was set; Miroku and Inuyasha saw Sesshomaru and Shippo approach with the food. "I'm going to go scout the area for demons," Inuyasha says, and was off in a second. "Look Miroku, I caught two rabbits," Shippo says happily while putting them by the campfire, "and it's all thanks to Lord Sesshomaru of course."
"Well done Shippo," Miroku acknowledges while gaining steel rods to place the food on to cook. Setting the boar down by the rabbits gutted and all Sesshomaru leaves the camp.
Coming into the camp with Rin; Sango asks, "Where is Inuyasha and Sesshomaru," while letting go of Rin's hand so she can play with Shippo.
"Inuyasha went to scout the area and Sesshomaru just left after he placed down his kill," Miroku replies.
Talking amongst themselves waiting for the others return, they never noticed Sesshomaru coming back with a pleased smile upon his face and three minutes later Kagome following closely behind with the same grin.
"Hey guys where did Inuyasha go?"
"He went to see if there were any danger lurking."
"Oh ok," Kagome replies while going to play with the kids waiting for Inuyasha to return, so she and Sesshomaru can taunt and trick him about Kouga. 'This should be amusing,' Kagome thought.
Sitting around the campfire everyone waited for Inuyasha to return. Just a few moments later they saw Inuyasha come into the clearing.
"Welcome back Inuyasha," Miroku says while handing him some boar and rabbit.
"Thanks," Inuyasha replies while taking his meal and hopping into a nearby tree. A moment of silence has passed and that's when Sesshomaru gave Kagome an evil smirk upon his face. She nods and says, "Hey Inuyasha? Kouga has been coming around a lot lately; do you know the reason why?"
As if on cue, Inuyasha falls out of the tree getting up angry with a slightly paled face. Gaining everyone else's attention he stutters, "W-Why the fuck w-would I know that w-wench? That wimpy wolf is always around where he is not wanted!" 'I hope she doesn't see through my bluff. And I really miss him.' Then his bastard of a brother had to say something. "Little brother, I have not smelled the dead priestess lately; can you tell me why," the taiyoukai states smirking.
Fuming Inuyasha yells, "Shut the fuck up Sesshomaru, before I slice your throat," he growls out. Sesshomaru smirk widens as Kagome piped up, "Inuyasha, I sense two jewel shards coming this way fast." Everyone gets ready for the new guest, except for Sesshomaru and Kagome of course, but was shocked at what they saw and heard. Oblivious to his senses; Inuyasha shouts happily, "Oh my god Kouga is on his way," fixing his hair and clothes quickly he asks, "How do I look?! Does my hair look ok?!" And at that moment everyone looked at Inuyasha as if he grew a second head.
------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------
AAACHOOO! 'Someone must be talking about me,' Kouga thought as he went on finishing with his bath. 'I miss Inuyasha. I think I'm going to go see him tomorrow.' Getting out of the river and dressed, he went to his den to sleep and await a day to go see his koishii.
