Trust in a Youkai

Chapter 19:

One Drunken Youkai

 

 

 

Dante was chatting with a few women when something slapped him up side the head. He turned around ready to yell and came face to face with Sesshoumaru. “L…lord Sesshoumaru” he stuttered as he bowed.

 

“I thought you were supposes to be watching Kagome” Sesshoumaru said.

 

Dante looked at Kagome then back at Sesshoumaru “Well, she was with you so I thought I was safe to get something to eat” he explained.

 

“Well now you are not to leave Kagome's side, is that understood?”

 

“Yes Lord Sesshoumaru, of course” Dante bowed slightly.

 

Kagome smiled as Dante took his place behind her and followed Sesshoumaru back over to the other Lords.

 

Once everyone showed up dinner was started. Everything went well other for Koga. Through out dinner Koga kept glancing over at Both Kagome and Sesshoumaru. He also kept fidgeting. Kagome was nervous the whole time from all the glances and stares she was getting and Sesshoumaru was getting angry. He actually thought of locking Kagome in her room and not letting her out until the ball was over. But, he quickly pushed that idea away.

 

After dinner every one entered the ball room, some light music was playing. Some danced while others talked. Rin was taken to Kagome's room an hour later to sleep, Kagome ended up having to take her and tuck her in or else she refused to go.

 

Kagome had just finished dancing with Dante and was now standing with him while Sesshoumaru was away, talking to Von and Irvine. She was about to ask Dante if he wanted to dance again when Koga came up behind her, wrapping an arm around her waist.

 

“Hey Kagome. Wha da say we go dance?” Koga asked, his voice slurred.

 

Kagome wrinkled her nose. He smelled of alcohol “Not right now Koga” she tried to move away but Koga tightened his grip.

 

“Come on, It'll be fun” he continued.

 

Dante tapped Koga on the shoulder “I believe Miss Kagome said that she didn't want to dance.”

 

Koga moved to face Dante “Just who do ya think you are?” Kagome tried to sneak off but Koga grabbed her wrist.

 

“I am Miss Kagome's body guard” Dante answered “Now, will you please unhand Miss Kagome?”

 

“If I want to dance with Kagome I'll dance with Kagome” Koga pulled Kagome closer to him.

 

On the other side of the room Sesshoumaru stood talking to Von and Irvine.

 

“A human with a youkai aura” Von ran those words over. “I believe I have a few books in my study that could be able to help.”

 

“Alright, I would like to stay a few days and read through them” Sesshoumaru said.

 

“Of course, stay as long as you like” Von looked across the room to see Koga holding Kagome's wrist, talking to Dante. “Lord Sesshoumaru, you might want to look at this.”

 

“Look at what?” Sesshoumaru asked. Von pointed across the room. Sesshoumaru looked just in time to see Koga punch Dante in the face.

 

Every one moved out of the way of the two and Sesshoumaru started to make his way over. Dante looked back over at Koga and wiped the blood from his mouth with the back of his hand.

 

“Considering you are a Lord I will not fight back” Dante said in a hard voice, his eyes narrowed at Koga.

 

“I told you to back off fox” Koga slurred, pulling Kagome closer to him.

 

“Miss Kagome is here with Lord Sesshoumaru, and again it looks like she does not want to dance with you” Dante said.

 

“What would she want with a dog? She's my woman” Kagome tried to inch away but Koga pulled her into him and kissed her. Kagome squeezed her eyes closed. Koga moved to make the kiss deeper. Kagome screamed and Koga used that to make it deeper.

 

Koga was suddenly ripped away from Kagome and thrown aside, hitting the wall behind them. He looked up to see Kagome latched around Sesshoumaru's waist. Sesshoumaru had an arm wrapped around her waist and glaring at Koga.

 

Koga wobbly stood up and looked around. A circle was made by the crowd while Kagome cried on Sesshoumaru, Von and Tiara stood behind them. In the crowd, stood his parents, Irvine and Leena. He looked over at his parents.

 

Leena looked away with heavy heart, embarrassed at her son. Irvine however, had a hard glare pinned at Koga and his arms crossed in front of his chest. Sighing Irvine walked over to Koga ad grabbed his arm. Giving Koga another hard look Irvine walked off dragging his son behind him. Leena quietly followed behind them.

 

Sesshoumaru moved Kagome back to look at her. “Did he hurt you?” he asked.

 

“No” Kagome sniffled.

 

“Maybe you should take her to her room” Tiara suggested.

 

“That would be a good idea” Sesshoumaru said.

 

“I'll take you there.” Sesshoumaru nodded and Tiara led them out.

 

“Alright, the shows over” Von announced “Go back to what you were doing.”

 

Slowly the crowd spread out and the music began to play again. Von set out to find Koga.

 

@@@%%%

 

The door to Kagome's room opened and Sesshoumaru walked in guiding Kagome beside him. He moved her to the bed and set her down. Tiara stood in the door way watching the two, Kagome looked over her shoulder to see Rin Sleeping.

 

“I figured you two wouldn't mind sharing a room” Tiara said form the door way.

 

“I don't mind” Kagome said quietly.

 

“Alright, I'll leave you two alone and if you want, Sesshoumaru knows where the bathing room is” Tiara bowed slightly and left closing the door behind her.

 

Kagome sat there sniffling quietly as to not wake up Rin. Sesshoumaru spotted her bag and went over to it. A few moments later he came back with a light blue yukata and handed it to Kagome. Still sniffling she took it. Sesshoumaru was about to say something when a knock sounded at the door.

 

Becoming annoyed Sesshoumaru stood and walked over to the door. When he opened it, Dante stood on the other side.

 

“Is Miss Kagome alright?” Dante asked as he bowed low.

 

“She will be alright” Sesshoumaru answered.

 

“Forgive me Lord Sesshoumaru, I am not a very good body guard” Dante apologized.

 

“You do not need to apologize; there was nothing you could do against a lord.” Sesshoumaru said.

 

“Yes my Lord” Dante bowed again.

 

Sesshoumaru nodded “Go back to the party; I will take care of Kagome.”

 

“Arigato Lord Sesshoumaru” He bowed one last time then walked down the hall.

 

Sesshoumaru closed the door and walked back over to Kagome. He sat down on the bed quietly so he does not wake Rin. “You should change and get some rest” he said.

 

Kagome just sat there, seemingly looking at nothing.

 

“Kagome” he said.

 

“Bake mono…” she whispered.

 

“Monster?” Sesshoumaru asked “What do you mean?”

 

“He reminded me of him” Kagome answered.

 

“Who?” Sesshoumaru continued to question.

 

“Koga… he reminded me of my step dad… when he was drunk. He acted like a monster” Kagome sniffled again.

 

“Von is most likely dealing with him as we speak” Sesshoumaru mentioned

 

Kagome nodded and stood “I'll get dressed.”

 

“There is a changing screen in the corner” Sesshoumaru pointed.

 

Kagome nodded and walked behind the screen. A few minutes later she cam out and the covers where pulled sown on the bed for her. On the other side of the bed Sesshoumaru was fixing the covers over Rin. She smiled lightly and sat down on the bed, pulling the covers over her.

 

Sesshoumaru walked back around to Kagome “I must be going back now.”

 

“Alright, I'll stay here and get some sleep” Kagome smiled.

 

“I'll send Dante to check on you later” Sesshoumaru bent down and placed a quick kiss on Kagome's forehead and left.

 

For a few minutes Kagome sat there, staring at the door. She finally laid down, pulling the covers over and closed her eyes, a smile on her face.

Walking through the crowd Sesshoumaru spotted Dante talking to Von and Tiara. Moving through the crowd he made his way over.

 

“How is Kagome?” Tiara asked as Sesshoumaru walked up to them.

 

“She's sleeping” Sesshoumaru answered. “Where are Irvine and Koga, as well as Leena?”

 

“Ah yes, Koga has been taken to his room” Von answered “Irvine and Leena are with him, they are arranging for Koga to make a formal apology once he sobers up.”

 

“Alright” Sesshoumaru said.

 

“I also have a couple guards posted outside his room, incase he were to get any ideas” Von added.

 

“Good” Sesshoumaru looked over to Dante. This time he noticed a large bruise forming on his jaw. “You should have that looked at.”

 

“That's alright, it doesn't hurt much” Dante waved it off. Sesshoumaru only nodded.

 

The ball went along smoothly until it was time for every one to leave. Only a few stayed for the war meeting the next day and went to their rooms.

 

One the way to his room Sesshoumaru decided to stop by Kagome's. Even though Dante had just come from checking on her, he quietly opened the door and looked in. Kagome lay there asleep on the bed, her arm wrapped around Rin. It seemed as if Rin moved over to sleep close to Kagome. To him Kagome looked so beautiful, sleeping there with a child in her arms. She would make a perfect mother and Sesshoumaru was headstrong to make her Rin's mother. After closing the door Sesshoumaru headed to his own room, planning on ways to make Kagome fall in love with him.
