InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ This Sesshoumaru Doesn't Do Christmas ❯ A Little Tied Up ( Chapter 14 )

Author's Note: I'm going to be doing my best to get this story finished up this holiday season, but between being 6 months pregnant, just having teeth surgically removed, and homeschooling Destiny… I only have so much time and even less energy.

 

I'd like to invite anyone who'd like to send Christmas/Winter holiday cards; this will be the third year in a row we'll be doing so. Destiny (age 6 if you don't know) loves receiving them and it is so exciting to see the wide variety of postmarks! If you send one, we'll send one back. We have quite an awesome collection from the last 2 years and I'd love to see it grow.

This Sesshoumaru Doesn't Do Christmas

Chapter 14 - A Little Tied Up

Monday, December 1,2008

 

Kagome was filled with holiday spirit by the time she returned home. She'd spent all day at the family shrine helping hang decorations and she was in the mood to continue the festivities.

Sesshoumaru felt abundantly better than he had for a long time. The idea had struck him around 3am the previous night as he tried to remain awake lying beside Kagome. The sound of her soft, slow breathing was hypnotizing and he'd felt like he was fighting for his life and losing.

 

It was a brilliant plan and he wondered why he hadn't thought of it earlier. He'd gone into work early only to take a long lunch during which he'd gone a few blocks over and gotten a room at a hotel. Sure, he paid for a whole night and only used it for a few hours, but it was definitely worth it. Those few hours of deep sleep had left him feeling well rested and in control.

As he opened the front door, the sweet scent of her happiness surrounded him and he smirked, closing the door silently and creeping towards her.

 

Kagome was digging through a bag of decorations when she let out a surprised yelp as strong arms wrapped around her waist. “You scared me,” she chastised while turning in his hold. “Welcome home. You wanna help me hang some decorations? It'll be fun.” She could see the disinterest in his eyes and pushed her bottom lip out in a pouty gesture. “You wouldn't make little old me put up all this on my own, would you?” she teased playfully.

 

“Of course not,” he replied, quickly admitting defeat. He couldn't resist her pouty face.

 

“Here,” she said excitedly while handing him a large bundle of garland. “Wrap it around the banister,” Kagome instructed before giving him a quick kiss and returning to her own task.

 

Sure, it wasn't really what he wanted to be doing, but if it would make her happy it was worth it. The taiyoukai wrestled with the sparkly red and gold garland for several moments before finally finding the end of it. He started at the bottom of the staircase and began decorating for Christmas for the first time in his life.

 

Kagome turned to watch for a minute before an idea struck her. She grabbed a few round tree ornaments and stood beside him, hanging them one by one from the garland between the vertical posts of the staircase banister. He noticed what she was doing and a smirk pulled at his lips as an idea struck him.

 

Sesshoumaru didn't step to the side as he continued wrapping the sparkly length, forcing Kagome to squeeze her way between him and the staircase to hang the next ornament, just what he was waiting for. He caught her off guard, kissing her passionately and pressing her back to the banister, and while she was distracted the dog demon wrapped her wrists in the garland, immobilizing her.

 

“Sesshoumaru? What in the world are you doing?” she asked, giggling as she realized she was now a part of the decorations.

 

“Enjoying myself,” he purred in her ear before dropping the remaining garland to the floor.

 

His hands traveled up under her shirt to caress her abdomen and sides, taking care for her not to notice his claws, before lifting the sweater up over her head so that only her arms remained stuck in it. The instant her skin was revealed to him he bent down to kiss and lick at the inviting silky sweetness, smirking as she moaned for him. It was a relief to allow himself to do something his instincts craved so strongly and knowing that she truly enjoyed it made it all the better.

 

He worshipped her slowly, finally reaching her still covered breasts. He lifted her bra up and out of the way, immediately pulling a pert nipple into his mouth and suckling like a pup, though he stopped himself rather quickly. He still didn't think she'd like that.

 

Kagome couldn't keep the grin off her face as she held on to the banister, making sure that her bindings wouldn't come loose. She was happy right where she was and was thrilled that he was being so playful. How could he possibly say he didn't enjoy this holiday season if decorating led to this? No, she was certain to win their bet and she would love it every step of the way.
