Chapter 9

.

.

Far out past the great mountains in the north-west, high above the clouds, the great palace of the Lady of the West hovered. It was a separate realm protected by a barrier which few passed through. Dog demon guards stood at every floor, at every door, and at the entrance of the Great Hall. There the majestic, peaceful, large silver doors suddenly burst open and Lord Sesshomaru stepped out. He forcefully pushed past the guards out towards the gardens of the castle.

.

.

A beautiful demoness with wavy, sparkling silver hair and grey eyes chased after him frantically, “Please my Lord! Allow me another chance! I meant nothing by it! All I wish to do is please you!” She threw herself down onto the ground, despite the elaborate white dress adorning her body. She was groveling at his feet and grabbed at his pant leg completely distraught. “I mirror perfection itself! How can you refuse me!” she cried out.

.

.

.

Sesshomaru snarled and kicked her clawed hand off, and continued walking away, his gorgeous long hair fluttering in the winds. The demoness pulled herself up and ripped the fine jeweled combs and beads out from her hair crushing them into bits. Her eyes engorged and turned a thunderous dark purple. She screamed and screeched and threw a huge fit while the guards rushed forward trying to help her up.

.

.

Sesshomaru swiftly turned a corner and sighed, relieved that he was out of earshot from that woman's awful screeching. His mother suddenly appeared before him, her purple irises gleaming. She was livid, but spoke with the same smooth, coaxing voice as always. “My son, are you not pleased with what I presented you?”

.

.

She was of course referring to the demoness left screaming in fury on the palace floor. Sesshomaru's eyes narrowed. “I agreed to entertain her with dinner for your sake. I have no time for anything further.”

.

.

His mother tilted her head back and sighed at the word `further'. Why did all the demoness she brought to Sesshomaru insist on trying to bed him right after dinner? It always led to him stomping out of the dinner hall, leaving the females in fits of rage or tears. And then she would have to send a perfectly fitting demoness away, back to her home...such a waste.

.

.

His mother held her hand up to her head and fell back onto a cushioned lounge chair dramatically, “Oh...I'm just a poor mother trying to do my job dear Sesshomaru. Have you no compassion for all the effort I've put in to this?”

.

Sesshomaru remained silent, his face completely void of compassion. His mother always insisted on meddling with his life. It was irritating to no end and was always a complete waste of his time.

.

.

“I've introduced you to countless female demons, all befitting the beauty and rank you deserve. Ahh-but you're never content. I think I've spoiled you after all this time,” she whined, clutching at her heart as though in pain.

.

.

Sesshomaru might have rolled his eyes if it fit his character. “Your efforts are no longer needed, Mother. I have no desire for any demoness you present me, now or ever.” With that he turned away and continued down the white marble stairs.

.

.

She appeared before him again with her arms crossed. “What would you have me do with the other demoness that are still in the castle waiting? I have already promised them each an audience with you. And they've come so far from home too...”

.

.

“They are of no concern to me,” he growled angrily. “Enough time has been wasted here.” His boa and hair continued to billow in the high winds.

.

`Oh...if you only knew Sesshomaru...' she mused, her eyes twinkling.

.

She cleared her throat, “At least meet with two more, my dear son. They are already here, and eager to meet you. For your mother's sake, please? At least I will sleep well knowing you considered my choices for you.” She pouted and tucked a strand of his glorious hair behind his ear away from his perfect face.

.

.

He sighed. All these shallow, desperate, spoiled demons clambering over him were disgusting. Not once did he hear anything worthwhile spew from their mouths. Why did he bother responding to his mother's summons? It always led to something ridiculous.

.

.

He didn't buy into any of her guilt trips either, but as an honorable son he felt somewhat obligated to please her.

.

.

He swallowed hesitantly, then nodded once. “I will acknowledge them tomorrow, that is all.” He turned on his heel gracefully and stepped away towards his chambers.

.

.

His mother's face brightened immediately, and she smiled showing her fangs, “Oh you've pleased me greatly Sesshomaru! These demoness will not disappoint! You'll have one mate too many by tomorrow!”

.

.

He shot her a furious glare then disappeared around a corner. His mother returned to her throne in the Great Hall. Sighing, she pulled the jeweled necklace Inu Taisho had given her off and said, “Hmm...show me the ningen child.” The large, purple jewel in her hand turned cloudy, then cleared, revealing a vision of Rin at the village, having her hair done by Kagome.

.

.

“Hm,” she pondered, “Not so much a child anymore, are you?” She turned to look at the guards beside her. “The fondness my son holds for this human is completely baffling. He won't be swayed by even the most alluring demoness. My, it's all so reminiscent of his father,” she slumped against the back of her seat with her hand over her forehead worriedly. “He'll be so furious with me when he finds out how much time he's really spent in this realm. Ugh, it's just all too much for me!”

.

.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

.

.

Sesshomaru finally reached his bed chambers. As soon as he entered, the green toad Jakken flew to his feet. “My lord! You've returned! Did you take a mate today as your mother predicted?”

.

.

Sesshomaru swiftly kicked the toad across the room into the wall, then proceeded to his large, royal bed. “ACK!!!.....Ughhoohhoooo,” Jakken groaned painfully as he slid down the wall onto the floor. “I guess that..means no...ugh.”

.

.

After taking a moment to recover, Jakken pulled himself up and waddled to Sesshomaru's bedside. “Forgive me sire, it's just that we have been here for quite some time, and you have met so many demoness. I-I thought one might have intrigued you at least!”

.

.

Sesshomaru didn't reply. To his knowledge he'd been at his mother's castle for a little under two months. The longest he'd ever stayed at any one place, besides his own castle. In fact, prior to this, he'd never stayed in this realm for longer than a few hours.

.

He assessed the situation.His mother had been shoving foul, potential mates down his throat ever since he'd arrived. He would stay one day longer to please her, then return home to the West...and after making sure everything was in accordance, he would return to Inuyasha's village to visit Rin.

.

.

.

Just thinking about her made all the horrors of this castle drift away. He fondly remembered the way her small face lit up when he presented her the pink blossom kimono.

.

.

His golden eyes wandered to the window. Outside he could see a range of beautiful gardens that she would have thoroughly enjoyed. One particular flower stood out to his discerning eyes. He lifted himself from the bed, and gracefully jumped through the open window out into the flowers. Jakken ran up to the window sill frantically yelling out, “My Lord!!! Where are you going now?! Please take your humble servant with--” Before he could finish his sentence Sesshomaru's foot came crashing down onto his head. The tai youkai had already returned from outside, with the flower in hand.

.

.

.

Jakken squished against the ground and lay there, dizzy from all the abuse. “Jakken,” Sesshomaru spoke. The small toad popped up immediately. “Yes m'lord!”

“Take this,” Sesshomaru dropped the flower into the toad's skinny green palms. It was a large, soft white lily, with pink lines and deep purple spots decorating the petals. “Have a jeweled hair comb made in it's likeness for Rin.”

.

Jakken scampered around the room clutching the lily. “Y-yes m'lord of course! I will immediately commission a fine hairpiece as such!”

.

Sesshomaru turned to the toad and smiled down at him. Jakken gasped and quivered with fear, “M-m'lord?!”

.

.

Sesshomaru spoke in a threatening whisper,“If it is made less beautiful than that flower, I will kill you Jakken.”

.

The toad yelped with tears flying out of his eyes and immediately bounded out of the room. “Yes m'lord! Right away! It will be as you wish!!!AH!”

.

Sesshomaru was glad that he would be alone for a while now, without his nagging mother or Jakken to irritate him. He returned to the bed and lay down to rest. He closed his eyes and thought about Rin. Without her company things were....dull.

.

.

(**Suggestive/sexual things coming up**Nothing much.)

.

.

Still brooding about her, he allowed himself to drift to sleep. Now, maybe it was because he thought about her just before sleeping, but the dream he had was all about the two of them.

.

He was walking around his mother's castle, and she was begging to introduce another woman to him. He tried to ignore her but she insisted, so he gave in. Walking forward he saw the demoness waiting ahead with her back turned. Except that when he approached her, she turned around, and was not a demoness at all. It was a grown version of Rin, and she was beaming at him. She was dressed in a fine kimono which showed off her womanly curves and slender body.

.

He was surprised to see her and moved his hand up to cup her face. “Rin,” he voiced. She tilted her head into his hand and smiled.

.

The next thing he knew they were in his bed chambers and she was disrobing. As she pulled her kimono off her shoulders he quickly snatched her wrist, “Rin, what are you doing?” He pulled her chin up and looked into her beautiful brown eyes. “I wish to please you my Lord!” she whimpered.

.

Oh....it sounded so nice when she said it. He was taken aback by her answer. Suddenly they were both naked on his bed, and she was stationed on top of him, with her hands sliding up and down over his masculine chest. He was slightly confused at the situation, but mesmerized by her at the same time. She looked absolutely beautiful above him, straddling his waist. Gods, he could feel the blood rushing down to his groin...and her soft thighs pushing against his skin wasn't helping at all.

.

.

.

She tilted her head forward and kissed him softly on the lips, but he remained still. Why was she doing this? He enjoyed it actually....but did she? Something about it felt strange.

.

.

“Thank you so much for the comb!” she kissed him again and again. She was completely naked, but in her hair she was wearing the lily comb he'd ordered to be made for her. Did he give it to her already? He must have forgotten. He moved his hand up and held her waist. It was so soft and delicate, and she smelled so sweet. She was blushing and shy, and adorable as usual. The longer she stayed straddling him with that perfectly sweet face, the heavier his breathing became. Did she even realize all the things he could do to her in this state? All the ideas pouring into his mind fueled his sexual appetite even more.

.

.

.

She was moaning into his ear and grinding slowly against his manhood. Oh god, it felt amazing. She felt amazing. Best of all, it felt like all of her was his to enjoy right now, in this moment. Like she belonged to him only. Everything was for his eyes only.

.

.

He pulled her down firmly onto his chest, and wrapped his arms around her and breathed her name. He could feel her soft breasts pushed up against his skin. “Make love to me please Lord Sesshomaru! I need you!” He furrowed his brows, why was she saying such things? He couldn't imagine his Rin saying that....even if it was the sweetest most provocative thing he'd ever heard in his life. Should he take her? She looked absolutely delectable. He thought it over for a minute.

.

.

No, he wouldn't lose control. Not to his primal urges, especially not at Rin's expense. Her safety and happiness were the only things concerning him. (Sesshy is so strict with himself!Sheesh!...I love it T_T! )

.

.

.

Suddenly she pushed off him, tears brimming her eyes. “You broke your promise!” Her tears spilled down her cheeks. Immediately he pulled up to face her and gently licked them off. Did he do something? What had upset her so suddenly? “Rin, what is wrong? As I said, I always keep my promise.” He was squeezing her wrist harder than he intended. “You're hurting me!” she cried out. It echoed.

.

.

His golden eyes shot open and he thrust forward up from his bed, panting heavily. He brushed his bangs back with his hand, feeling beads of sweat on his forehead. He looked around his bed chambers taking a minute to calm himself.

.

.

He was irritated with himself. Why had he dreamt about Rin like that? Or about an adult Rin at least. If anyone else had had such dishonorable thoughts about her, he would have torn them to shreds. He was even more put off by the idea that she was crying, or that he was hurting her.

.

.

Still, he couldn't easily forget the way she looked sitting over him naked, with her hot thighs and long, buttery legs brushing against his manhood. Her slender body looked so inviting. That image of her, he had never ever imagined it before. For the first time in hundreds of years, he felt blood rushing to his cheeks. He quickly pushed the naked image of her out of his mind and lay back down to rest once more.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Teehee. I made it so that Sess is reluctant to think of Rin in a sexual way. I think it's fitting, since he still thinks of her as being a child and his friend.

God...i love a guy with crazy self control...WOOT!
