The Promise

Kagome knew that she shouldn't have followed him. They have been sitting around the campfire trying to rest. Everyone knew the final battle was coming. The jewel was just missing what Naraku had. It was only a matter of time. But, he had gotten up…so gracefully. He had turn his head to her and tilted it towards the river. And she knew…. he wanted her to follow.

But she shouldn't have...

Gods, why did she?

But, she knew why. She could see as she drank in his form. He was staring at the river with the wind gently blowing his silk silver spun hair. His body spoke of his alertness, rigid, tense, regal.  And then he turned, pinning her with that golden stare, simmering with something she dare not hope. He made her weak. He made her want…

But that could never be…

Its haunting

This hold that you have over me

I grow so weak

Sessshomaru turned his body towards her. He knew he shouldn't have invited her, but he couldn't explain it. He thought he had lost his facilities. She is a human, an insect, beneath him. But, he seen her will, her strength, her determination… and it started to change. He locked his gaze with her azure eyes and nothing else mattered. He strode over to her leisurely.

I see you

And everything around you fades

And I can't see

He gently cupped her cheek, towering over hair and titled her head upwards. He sealed his mouth over hers. He swallowed her whimper and lured her mouth to move against his, nipping at her bottom lip. He pulled her closer, flush against him as he outlined her mouth with his tongue. Her gasp gave him the invitation to fully taste her. So sweet, like nectar, gods…he couldn't get enough. She could never know…

You can never know what it is you do to me

 

 

.~.~.~.~.~ .~.~.~.~.~ .~.~.~.~.~ .~.~.~.~.~ .~.~.~.~.~ .~.~.~.~.~ .~.~.~.~.~

That one kiss... shattered illusions… so dangerous... this attraction…

More?

Could they have more?

The burn, the need….

I can't take what you do to me I can't take it

I can't take what you do to me I can't take it

 

.~.~.~.~.~ .~.~.~.~.~ .~.~.~.~.~

Kagome could feel his need pressed against her stomach. God, she wanted more. She knew this wouldn't end well. This is forbidden…

He's a demon...

Her a miko…

Inuyasha's enemy…. brother…

She should stop this...

No matter what I say

or what I do

I know how this will end

So I turn it away now before we begin

 

 

But, damn it, she didn't want to care.

She need to feel more of him. She fisted her hands around the fabric of his haori and pulled him closer She felt him lift her up and she wrapped her legs around his waist. She couldn't stop the moan... almost guttural as his need pressed against her clothed core.

She knew this …was dangerous…

 

I'm dangerous for you

 

 

 

 

.~.~.~.~.~ .~.~.~.~.~ .~.~.~.~.~ .~.~.~.~.~

Sesshomaru knew that this was a sin. This would never work. It should disgust him this want ... for her…

A human..

A miko…

He should end this…Walk away... before it's too late.

And no matter what you say

or what you do

I know how this will end

So I'm turning away now

 

But, he couldn't care.

 He wanted to drink in her being. She was powerful and beautiful. A jewel in her own right. He always wanted power. He could feel his youkai rising swirling in red teasing her reiki. 

He felt her yank him closer and knew he needed to...

Dominate…

Put her in her place...

He lifted her up and felt her legs wrapped around him. He grinded himself into her cloth core and smirk at her moan.  The way she looks...so delectable.... wanton... his...

He needed to taste her...

He licked and nibbled her neck sucking just enough. He needed to mark her. MINE…

He knew this…. was dangerous…

I'm dangerous for you

.~.~.~.~. .~.~.~.~.~ .~.~.~.~.~

 

 

The rest was a blur... primal… dominate. Lips roaming, up, down... kissing... sucking... Both fighting for dominance. Red swirling mixing with blue...

 

You touch me

And I can barely

make a move

And I can't breathe

Eyes bleeding red... Teeth sinking into flesh…gasping

Moans, whimpers, begging... his... hers... only the forest knows...

Hips moving, thrusting... backs arching... Grasping...

Youkai.. Reiki... combining...

Completion…. powerful…

Together…

You never know what it is you do to me

I can't take what you do to me I can't take it

I can't take what you do to me I can't take it

 

.~.~.~.~.~ .~.~.~.~.~ .~.~.~.~.~ .~.~.~.~.~ .~.~.~.~.~

Kagome wanted to curse. Gods, that was ... there wasn't a word to describe that. She knew what had happen.

He marked her. She sighed and rested an elbow on his chest. Apparently, she marked him as well. His wonderful stripes had blue outlining them now. They had become one...

But, she knew she was too dangerous for him...

Tonight was a fluke...

No matter what I say or what I do

Her Reiki had a mind of its own...

And she didn't know what the jewel would do after…

Gods what had she done?

I know how this will end

So I'm turning away now before we begin

 

.~.~.~.~.~ .~.~.~.~.~ .~.~.~.~.~ .~.~.~.~.~

Sesshomaru watched Kagome's features and could see the emotions waring within her. She was conflicted about this and he understood. This was dangerous. His beast took her and she responded.

However, he had taken it a step further…

She was his mate

Eternally.

And no matter what you say

or what you do

She was his match...

This is...

  new territory.

She marked him...

Such Power…

His…

I know how this will end

But He knew...

He was too dangerous for her…

 

So I'm turning away now

I'm dangerous

 

.~.~.~.~.~ .~.~.~.~.~ .~.~.~.~.~

 

“Miko, we must return.  This did not happen,” Sesshomaru said gravely. Kagome looked into his molten gaze and sighed. “Nothing happen,” she whispered. She knew he was right. She felt him use his youkai to mask the mark, while she did the same with her reiki.

The final battle was looming on the horizon.

No one could now how they really felt for each…

The only promise I could make

Is that my promise is a lie

 

.~.~.~.~.~ .~.~.~.~.~

Kagome sighed as she put her clothes back on. She knew why this was this way. It didn't stop the ache...

But she knew ...

That there would be no happy ending for them...

She is a miko with a duty to Shikon jewel.

 

The jewel that destroy lives...

She could only promise him…

She looked into his eyes, feeling his hand cupped her cheek tenderly... almost...

No…

She could only promise him… that she will hurt him…

It is her fate...

My promise is I will hurt you

My promise is I will hurt you

.~.~.~.~.~ .~.~.~.~.~

Sesshomaru just had to touch her one last time. He cupped her cheek, titling her head upwards and claimed her lips. He poured what he could into it.

What he couldn't say...

And his remorse...

He is a Daiyoukai,

He has a duty to protect his lands.

To rid them of the pathetic hanyou…Naraku…

He could only promise

That he will hurt her.

My promise is I will hurt you

My promise is I will hurt you
