Chapter 15: Following Your Instincts
Sesshoumaru was rather quickly finding himself very confused. First, his little brother had no idea what was wrong with him. Then, they find out that Inuyasha can bear pups. Now, his baby brother is wondering what a three-quarters youkai will look like?
It made no sense to the elder brother. If he had found out that he now had the ability to bear pups, he felt that he would be angry. He had been sure that his little brother would have been rather upset and possibly violent at the idea. But, that appeared to not be the case.
Once again shocking him, his little brother appeared to have not only rather readily accepted that he was able to bear pups but seemed quite pleased with it. He tried to stifle the voice in the back of his head that was insisting that his little brother could and should have his pups.
He had almost gotten it completely silent when he heard the discussion about who his younger brother intended to mate with. A sudden rage came over him. ‘How dare he even think that he is allowed to mate with anyone other than me? He will not have another’s pups. This Sesshoumaru will not allow it!’
He could feel his youki rise from where it had been barely restrained this entire encounter and come to the forefront. Without thought, he raised his hand and, choking his brother, demanded to know who his intended mate was. As far as his youki was concerned, it was a simple matter of finding out who this competition was and killing him. Then, there would be no competition for the affections of his intended mate.
The small part of him that was still capable of rational thought was rather intrigued that his little brother was doing nothing to get out of his grasp. If anything, the attractive scents Inuyasha had been emitting all day increased the longer he continued the hold.
All his instincts were screaming at him to claim this creature as his immediately. This wonderful smelling creature he was holding obviously wanted to be his mate very badly. Just as he was about to begin the claiming process on his little brother, he heard Bokusenou demand he release his brother at once and felt a shock go through him.
Surprised, Sesshoumaru released Inuyasha and dropped to a crouch. His rational mind was still not in control of his actions. At present, his entire being was focused on finding the one who would dare to challenge his right to take his mate. He would dispose of the challenger first and then take his mate as he desired.
The next thing he knew, his intended mate was gently stroking his hair and trying to pull him closer. He gladly went into the arms of the smaller being, accepting the delicate ministrations and intoxicating scent gratefully. He had been without his mate for far too long.
As he was being held by his mate, feeling very content just to be around him, he felt his future mate becoming dejected. This was very upsetting to Sesshoumaru’s youki. Why would his mate be feeling this way while he was in his arms? He didn’t like it and decided to correct the problem.
The fastest way his youki knew of to solve it was a nip on the back of the neck. It would remind his mate that he, Sesshoumaru, was there to take care of him. His intended did not have to worry about not being accepted or loved. After all, wasn’t his love and acceptance all his mate could possibly need?
Unfortunately, once again, the nip to the back of the neck did not garner its intended reaction. Instead of calming down and allowing Sesshoumaru to comfort him, his intended shoved him away and screamed. “Damn it, Sesshoumaru! What the hell do you think you’re doing! What is up with you and biting anyway?! It wasn’t funny the last time and it’s not funny this time either! I’m not a fucking newborn pup! Stop trying to treat me like one!”
The initial scream and shove was enough to knock Sesshoumaru free of the almost trance he had been in. He listened to the rest of his little brother’s ‘speech’ with increasing disbelief. Could it be possible Inuyasha had no idea what that bite meant? Surely not. He knew his baby brother wasn’t raised by demons but this was ridiculous.
Out of the corner of his eye, Sesshoumaru could see the shock he was feeling being reflected on the tree demon’s face. Meanwhile, his younger brother was glaring at him and had taken yet another step back.
Bokusenou was the first to regain his power of speech, “You bit him before?”
If there was one question Sesshoumaru had hoped the old tree demon would not ask, that was it. It was just his luck his baby brother would still remember that one night when he had gotten drunk and the events of the following morning. And then, for him to bring it up now, of all times. Sesshoumaru was really beginning to think that maybe he should have just stayed back at the palace with Rin and Jaken. At least then, he wouldn’t be forced to put up with this nonsense.
“Sesshoumaru, it is not like you to avoid such a straight forward question. Now, did you bite Inuyasha before?”
Deciding that he was not going to allow this demon to intimidate him, no matter how embarrassed he was, he looked Bokusenou straight in the eye and emotionlessly answered, “Yes.”
“Even if your younger brother does not understand the meaning behind the bite, I know you do.”
Sesshoumaru just looked at him expressionlessly.
Inuyasha, however, looked between the two of them and asked, “What do you mean I don’t understand? You bite young pups on the back of the neck to reprimand them for doing things you don’t approve of. What’s so hard to understand about that? Like I said, I’m not a newborn pup and I wasn’t misbehaving. He’s just being stupid.”
“You are calling me stupid? I am not the one who does not even understand the basics of youkai behavior.”
“Of course I’m calling you stupid! Why else would you suddenly decide biting me was a good idea?! Were you expecting me not to retaliate?! I’m not as young as I was last time. I’ll bite back!”
“It is not this Sesshoumaru’s fault that you have failed to grasp the intricacies of youkai society once again. You are, after all, but a hanyou.”
“That is it, Sesshoumaru! I have had it with you and your damn high and mighty attitude! Let’s go!” he yelled, pulling tetsusaiga.
Sesshoumaru pulled tokijin with an, “As you wish, brother.” Perhaps fighting his little brother would get rid of this tension he had been feeling all day.

(Bokusenou’s POV momentarily)
Bokusenou looked back and forth between them as if they had both lost their minds. Just a minute ago they were in each others arms, quite content and now they had swords drawn looking as if they were going to kill each other.
With a sigh, Bokusenou reached out and grabbed both of their arms that had the swords. Ignoring the protests, he held them still and asked, “Are you both insane?!”
Receiving no answer other than glares, he continued to talk, “You are purposefully antagonizing one another. Now, I will release your arms and you will withdraw your weapons. Is that understood?”
Gaining two half-hearted nods, he released their arms and watched them grudgingly put their swords away. If they always acted this way towards one another, it was no wonder that they had not become mates yet, he mused. But one thing Inuyasha had said in his previous rant still bothered him. He had all but stated that Sesshoumaru had bitten him as a mate in the past. Sesshoumaru had even agreed that it was true.
If that was the case, why had Sesshoumaru not come asking him about his behavior previously? He was sure that any type of mate behavior being displayed towards one that he saw as being out of the running for his mate would have disturbed the youkai enough to ask about it.
However, this was the first time he was hearing about the incident. Curious, he looked between the dog brothers, both of whom were still obviously agitated. “If we could get back to the initial discussion, when did this first bite take place?”

(back to Sesshoumaru’s POV)
It figured that the tree demon wanted to pick on that one piece of information. Well, Sesshoumaru wasn’t going to give him the satisfaction of an answer. Unfortunately, he had no control over his little brother who promptly replied, “About 100 years ago. Why?”
Ignoring the question, Bokusenou focused directly in on Sesshoumaru. “You bit him 100 years ago and I am only hearing about it now?”
“It is of no consequence. What happened 100 years ago should not have happened at all.”
Bokusenou looked at him in disbelief. “Of no consequence? You bit your little brother and it is of no consequence?”
Sesshoumaru just looked at him with a blank face. There was no way he was going to try and explain what happened that morning to the tree demon. It was none of his business anyway.
He watched Inuyasha look between the two of them as if searching for what part of the conversation he had missed. Apparently having become tired of waiting, his little brother spoke up, “What the hell are you two so upset about? Sure it’s annoying to be treated like a pup, but don’t you think you’re putting a little too much thought into this? How can something that happened 100 years ago honestly have any impact on what he did today?
“Besides, the bastard wasn’t even awake when he did it that time.”
If Sesshoumaru had been the type, he would have hit himself in the head. Hell, if Bokusenou wasn’t standing right there just waiting for a reaction out of him, he would have hit his little brother in the head. Now he was never going to hear the end of it.
Evidently coming to the conclusion that the younger brother was much easier to get information out of, Bokusenou directed the next question towards Inuyasha. “How was it that Sesshoumaru had an opportunity to bite you while he was asleep?”
Horrified at what his little brother was going to give away, Sesshoumaru forced himself to look straight ahead and not allow any expression on his face. It wasn’t until he heard nothing for a minute that he glanced at his baby brother.
Inuyasha was blushing bright red and looking as if he was trying to find any way out of answering that question. It had not occurred to Sesshoumaru until that moment that his younger brother might have been just as embarrassed about the goings on of that night and morning as he had been.
In an attempt to save face, Sesshoumaru said, “I have the answers I came here for. I shall now take my leave.” He then turned and proceeded to walk away, well aware of the fact that the two others were now staring at his retreating back.
Ignoring them, he put as much distance as he could between himself and the other two without appearing like he was running away. However, given how his day had been going, he was not entirely sure he succeeded.
