InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ The Unwillingness of One ❯ Remorse ( Chapter 2 )

Chapter 2: Remorse

It was much later that nigh when Sesshomaru regained control. He was somewhat shocked to see the human still beneath him, and further despaired when he saw his mark on her and felt her torn walls clenching around him in her restless sleep. At his movements Kagome moaned in pain as he bent down to lick and suck affectionately at the crescent moon mark on her shoulder. Kagome calmed back into a dreamless sleep.

 

“What is this Sesshomaru to do with her?”

 

He had little to no idea how he was going to take care of her, this woman that his beast had laid claim to. She most likely would hate his guts for what he had done to her and he really couldn't blame her.

 

Pushing his thoughts aside he set about the task to put his inner haori, hakama, obi and boots back on while he put the outer white haori over to cover her. For the first time in his unnaturally long life an unfamiliar guilt tugged at him as he saw the blood she was covered in. Some from her marking and the punchers in her thighs most was from her maiden head breached.

 

She had been a virgin and he had taken away her most precious gift. Tears were coming down her cheeks as she most likely reliving the experience. He picked her up gently mindful of all her injuries. As he saw the bluish-blackish bruise on her face he winced on the inside.

 

`-We should have killed her traveling companies.-'

 

His beast told him. Sesshomaru remembered that he had severally injured her friends and almost fucking killed his damned whelp of a brother. `-She has no one to turn to.-' His beast told him.

`Even Inuyasha would turn her away now that I have laid claim to her, albeit unwillingly, but nevertheless, claimed.' He spoke to himself as she began to stir from her nightmarish sleep.

“Sess-Sesshomaru…?!” she said quietly as her scent peaked in fear as a cold winter wind blew over causing her to shiver.

“It is alright.” Sighing he wrapped his tail around her small body and brought her as close as he could to his chest for all the warmth he could give her. She sighed softly and curled into him as her fear subsides for now in seeking the warmth that he gave her.

`Damn I forgot that humans do not tolerate the cold.' He cursed realizing the now it was early winter. He stopped by the Demon slayer who had come to and was now sitting up.

“Sesshomaru what are you doing with Kagome!?” She said angrily at seeing one of her friends and sister hurt.

“This Sesshomaru is take his mate with him, the monk and hanyou are alive but need treatment… Now,” After saying that he took off in a swift walk leaving the Sango in a stunned state.

He had broken into a run to get back to his campsite doing his best to keep her warm and safe. As he neared his camp he looked down upon her form as her blue lips and icy flesh he decided to take her to a hot spring near by. Once he got to it he sat her down next to it and removed his cloths. Then he opened his haori and begin to lick the wounds on her thighs coating then in a thick coat of saliva so they would heal faster. After that he sat down in the water with her in his lap and started to wash the blood away from her body as he make a call out to his vassal.

“Jaken!” He said.

“Yes Milord?” he replied from a short distance away behind a bolder.

“Have Au-Un watch over Rin and go pick up a thick kimono for my mate.”

“Yes Lord Sesshomaru it shall be done.” The toad left to attend to his duties, now he

could attend to his mate. He would make sure she had the best of everything. Even still, he knew that it might take years to gain her trust, perhaps even centuries; for when a demon mated a human they would live as long as the demon. After removing most of the dried blood from her he sat adjacent the rock wall of the hot spring and relaxed with his unwilling mate in his arms.

 

Awhile later Jaken came over to where his master had been staying in the hot spring with his mate in hand was a navy blue warm silken kimono with the silver crescent moon as the design on it with a golden obi.

“Mi Lord this is for your… What that human doing?!” Jaken squawked.

“Jaken this is my 'mate' if you value your life then silence!” Sesshomaru said with venom laced voice.

“Yes Mi Lord. Are we returning to the castle now or continue the hunt for Naraku?” Jaken asked in a mink voice.

Sesshomaru though for a second. “Return to the castle.” Jaken bowed and walked off to get Rin and the dragon steed and head back to the castle.

Sesshomaru got out dressed himself and Kagome and headed to the castle himself with Kagome rewrapped in his tail and the kimono snuggled back into him. Before he started a faint scent came across him. “Fuck!” The remnants of her own heat cycle were fading, a definite sign that she was now breed and carrying his pup. `How am I going about telling her she carrier our offspring?' On his way he started thing about the young human girl, a miko that follows his brother, now bound to him as his mate. The other 3 great demons would find this amusing, no doubt.

“They would be wise to keep their thoughts quiet about My Kagome.”

`My Kagome…? Has this human already affected me that badly?'

Another though occurred to him. This girl was a priestess, the living enemy of nearly all demons. Would our offspring live, or would her power purify them? For a fleeting second he had a concerned look on his face. At this time Kagome decided to stir. The first thing she saw was a concern Sesshomaru looking ahead. A frown caught her brow and confusion spread through her. `Where am I? Why is Sesshomaru carrying me and why does he look concerned?'

At that second memory opted to return and she started shacking in fear and crying. Sesshomaru sensing her distress found a large tree and sat down underneath it pulling her closer to him.

 

(A/N she is sitting with her right side leaning against Sesshomaru left shoulder.)

As she tries to shift and get out of his grasp searing pain hits her like a like hot needles pricking her all over and she nearly screams in pain. More memory replayed the whole scene. Were all her friends dead? Sango, Miroku, Inuyasha were they dead?
As if sensing her thoughts Sesshomaru spoke. “They are alive; this Sesshomaru did not kill them.”

She visible relaxed at hearing that but something was still troubling her. `Why would Sesshomaru be caring for me? Why not just kill me when he was through? Is he going to rape me again? What does he have planned for me?' she asked her self silently.
Sesshomaru watched as several different emotions crossed her form in seconds. First were confusion then sadness, fear, then uncertainty. Sesshomaru started purring to calm her and it seemed to be working so deciding to press his luck further he opted to speak to her about what had happen and what her new future was going to be like.

“Kagome? This one must tell you what had happen to this Sesshomaru when…” He didn't want to finish that though because he wanted her to forget those memories.

She was somewhat surprised that he knew her name but learning about that could come later. “You raped me?” She finished for him with a hint of the inu curiosity.

“Yes.” Sesshomaru started to tell about what happens to demons that go into heat. Then he told her about how his demonic heat finally overpowered him, Kagome though he was lying but then again she couldn't remember when he had ever lied to her. She suddenly though of something that might help her understand.

“What about Inuyasha? Wouldn't he also be affected by it?”

“In human terms he is too young, to be affected by the heat.”

Kagome though on what he said for awhile before she replied. “I don't know if I can forgive you, despite everything I've heard but I will try.” Kagome hugged onto tighter. Sesshomaru released a breath that he had been holding for a good 5 minutes now when Kagome said she would try to get along with him.

`The pup must be telling her to stay close to me… should I tell her?' deciding to wait till the morning he said one last thing.

“We will be returning to the castle tomorrow, sleep now.” Nearly at his command she was fast asleep with him. During the night if Kagome had any nightmares Sesshomaru would purr and her nightmares would seize.

The next morning Kagome woke up to Sesshomaru stroking her hair while purring to her softly. Looking up to him she gave a fearful smile to him while he gave a small one back.
`He's smiling at me maybe he's trying to show me how nice he is… he is handsome when he does that.' a slight blush colored her face at that thought. As she shifted to get out of his hold a slight pin poke hit her and she closed her eyes tightly at the foreign pain as she fell back into his lap. Sesshomaru put his clawed hand on her stomach and the pain subsided.

“Wh… what was that?” Kagome looked up to him.

“That is our pup.”

“I'm pregnant?”

Nodding his head once he spoke “Yes.” Frowning her brow she looks up to him asking why there was a sudden pin prick of pain. As if reading her plight spoke easily. “Hanyou children born of from a human mother have their claws and fangs.”
She gave him an `oh' like expression then looked down at herself before asking another thought that had crossed her mind. “How long?”

“For a hanyou it's 7 moons.”

She looked down at her self. `7 moon…7 months, wow hanyou sure do grow fast.'

“Is there anything I…we need to worry about?”

“I do not know this is the first time that a miko that I know of has ever been impregnate by a demon.”

“Sesshomaru?” He looks down at her in somewhat wonder why she called his name. “I was never trained in the ways as a priestess I don't have a lot of control.” He looked down upon her wondering how that was possible.

 

Rising an eye brow “It's just that where I come from…mikos and demons are myths and legends.”

 

Raising his head to the side slightly Sesshomaru spoke with a hint of curiosity in his voice. “Where do you come from then?”
