InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ The Story Continues ❯ The Attack ( Chapter 14 )

[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]

Two weeks after the incident with the threatening letter and upon Sesshoumaru’s insistance, Kagome’s apartment was stripped bare and her items moved to one of the guest rooms in his home. It had only taken half of that time in which both brothers had decided it was best that Kagome slept in one of the guest rooms due to her ability to not be able to lay down with them without being aroused. She, of course huffed and blamed it on them for being ‘too goddamn sexy.’

Kagome loved being around Sesshoumaru and Inu Yasha, but sometimes it was a bit much. Inu Yasha happily complied to Sesshoumaru’s demand that he accompanied Kagome everywhere, and he did, even to her classes! He was not embarrassing, but considering the whole first semester she had no one with her, it was confusing to her classmates and was grounds for excessive questioning that Kagome did not want. She liked to keep to herself and apparently with Inu Yasha around and his already famous status as a Taishou brother was making it frustrating. Inu Yasha did not make rude comments like he use to in Sengoku Jidai, but he was very polite and she wondered if it had to do with the courting mark. Sesshoumaru had been unseemingly courteous as well, but he had been even when she only knew him as Seitsu.

She remembered Sango’s teachings again.

‘Inu youkai once they mark their intended with the courting mark are more in tune to their intended’s wellbeing. They have already found their intended worthy and will not treat as gruffly as before the courting mark.’

The bell rang in the classroom and Inu Yasha offered her bookbag so she could put her textbook and other items away. His cell phone rang and he answered. Only a few seconds later he slapped his phone together and grinned, “Well, let’s go. Sesshoumaru is waiting in the parking lot and wants to go to lunch.”

“But I was going to go to the gym for training. I am in varsity softball, you know that. I have to train with my teammates,” she said, very mad.

“When do you have to be there, really?” he asked, frowning.

“At two- thirty. On time, dressed for practice and not a second late,” she answered.

“We’ll be back in time. I promise!” he grinned, relieved that her training was not scheduled earlier.

Inu Yasha was not a fan of being within the university walls. He had attended in the past, but he did not brag that he was a scholar and frankly, he hated getting the googly eyes from all the girls on campus. It was annoying because the scents of arousal tried to over power his Kagome’s scent and it made him want to gag.

Kagome smiled weakly and then took up his hand that he held out to her and then they made their way across campus and into the parking lot. First thing the two could see when approaching the parking lot was Sesshoumaru standing outside the limo. Kagome groaned and Inu Yasha asked, “What’s wrong?”

“I know you guys have it made with your business and fame, but I don’t like to look like I am flaunting my good luck, which is what the others will see. I know I accepted your courting, but can you both downplay the whole ‘yeah, I know I am richer than you’ thing,” she sighed sadly, eyeing Inu Yasha for his reaction.

Inu Yasha frowned. He knew it bothered her as she did not come from a wealthy family and was not use to the attention.

‘But she is with us now. She has to get use to it.’

“I will talk with Sesshoumaru and we will see. Maybe less limo rides. But you aren’t going to be able to shake me off. You’re stuck with me, wench,” he grinned, and leaned down, kissing her on the forehead.

He wanted to kiss her on the lips badly, but he and Sesshoumaru had agreed that to the public, she was for Sesshoumaru. He groaned as she pulled away, itching to just pull her pack to him.

‘If this were Sengoku Jidai, I could kiss her and no one would question it.’

She smiled, wishing she could return it to his lips, and gave him a knowing look. To the public, they knew her to be the fiance of Seitsu Taisho, so she could only act sisterly in public with Inu Yasha. She stepped towards Sesshoumaru and he encompassed her in his arms.

“I missed you, koi,” he said softly and leaned down, kissing her firmly.

Kagome swore she could her a few jealous girls talking and a flash from some camera nearby. She kisses Sesshoumaru back with equal force, then pulled away. She was not comfortable about her life being captured on camera for the gossip magazines. Every article and picture published made her more known and she did not relish the attention.

“Come on, let’s go before there are more cameras. I heard a flash already,” she urged.

Sesshoumaru chuckled lightly, “Koi, you will have to get use to such attention. I know you hate it, but to be mine, you will have to endure it.”

She slid into the limo seat, and sighed as Sesshoumaru slid in next to her and Inu Yasha climbed in from the other side of her.

“We have to be back here before Kagome’s practice at two-thirty,” Inu Yasha informed him.

“I was aware of that. I had her tell me her schedule. She will not miss it,” he replied coldly. “Unlike you, I do remember things.”

“Keh,” Inu Yasha grumbled as he crossed his arms.

Less than half an hour later, the limo stopped in front of a Greek restaurant. Kagome was ecstatic when she saw it as she had loved the Greek food she had on her vacation. The restaurant was not as fancy as she was use to as Sesshoumaru and Inu Yasha tended to take her to upscale restaurant. It was one place that eased her frustrations.

Sesshoumaru noted her relaxing and was glad he had planned to take her that. He has sensed her growing tension from all the attention and wanted to do something to ease it. He was not a fan of going to restaurants like the one they were at, but for Kagome, he would go to WacDonalds with her if she wished it.

‘This Sesshoumaru is definitely becoming too soft, but she is worth it.’

Inu Yasha on the other hand did not care where he ate. He was just hungry and happy that Kagome was happy with coming to the restaurant.

They ordered and as they waited, Kagome excused herself so she could freshen up in the bathroom. The weather had become warmer and she knew she looked a bit frazzled. She entered the bathroom and found it to be quite roomy, even a little seat on the side. She grabbed a paper towel and moistened it under the faucet, and then applied it to her forehead, dabbing while closing her eyes. It was then she heard two clicks and when she opened her eyes, the bathroom was dark. There were was a window on the side, but it was heavily draped in curtains.

She could not see anything and became alarmed as something sharp and cold pressed to her shoulder.

“Don’t scream bitch! I told you not to hang with them and you didn’t listen,” the voice said through the darkness, a menacing voice of a woman.

The woman’s voice was rich and Kagome sense that she was a demoness.

‘Most likely beautiful. Why does this happen to me?’

Kagome felt the object pressing on her withdrawing and immediately a large bolt of pain spread throughout the back of her head. Kagome found herself falling over into the darkness of unconsciousness.
