I do not own Inuyasha or YuYu Hakusho but I do have a large headache with having no sleep in last 40 hours.
*‘Youko’s speech’*,
#‘Kurama’s speech’#
**‘Hiei’s speech’**
‘Normal thoughts ’
A/N I’ve noticed Kagome is acting not as strong lately in the last few chapters, well it’s not going to last much longer as it’s about time she started turning the tables on the others. ‘Yeah life is a bitch and it’s called Kagome!’
P.S I said Kagome was meeting Kurama’s mother in this chapter, well that has been delayed for now till the next chapter.
Chapter 14. Reciprocating Feelings?
A bang on his door brought him out of the mental dilemma.
“Brother Get up, you have been in that stinking pit for nearly 12 hours now.”
“What.” and then he groaned; by Kami when he spoke it felt like he had shifted something in his brain he was sure.
Kuwabara finally moved but very slowly as he got up out of his bed and then walked out of his room across the landing to go the bathroom, well he knew one thing as he moved holding his head as it jerked in pain, he needed to relieve himself as his bladder was killing him.
Half an hour later, he was sitting in his kitchen, the brief shower he had had soothed the aches from his body a little bit but it still hadn’t refreshed his mind. The smell of his sister’s coffee was making him feel really sick too. Shizuru watching wondered with amusement when the lug was going to say something to her.
Yusuke had dropped him of early this morning about 4 o‘clock actually, along with a brief explanation of why he was out for the count and some instructions from Kurama. ‘The poor lug, to think he doesn’t yet remember that he tried to get into Botan’s pants.’ It was a shame that the potion hadn’t worked Shizuru thought with amusement.
Now most sisters wouldn’t be thinking like this, but well Shizuru was one of a kind. She knew how Kuwabara thought how he was in love with Yukina just as she was aware that Yukina didn’t feel that way back. Actually Yukina and she had become good friends over the years and Yukina had opened herself to Shizuru about her feelings for him, she saw him nothing more than as a good friend.
But Kuwabara was a stubborn fool almost as stubborn as Yusuke was and the fact that Yukina didn’t love him the way he wanted had never sunk in, no matter how many hints the shy ice maiden had been subtly trying to drop.
Yukina had actually on their last visit to Genkai’s asked her privately if she would tell him for her. When Shizuru asked why Yukina had blushed saying she had falling for some one else and she had also become of aware of the fact that a certain pretty blue-haired grim reaper had fallen for Kuwabara.
Shizuru snorted then making Kuwabara jump and wonder what the hell was wrong with his sister who was staring at him closely and she was rather quiet too, it made shivers go up his back along with a great sense of morbid fear.
“Baby bro what can you remember about yesterday?”
“Eh!”
Kagome moaned and thought that explains the soreness, she couldn’t believe it she had actually had sex with Hiei. And was the most annoying part about it, she couldn’t even remember much as she had been so out of it. ‘Ohhhh that bastard Takehiko, when I get my hands on him, I’m going to twist his balls off and then purify them in front of his eyes.’
That man was going to die and she was going to be the one to do it too. ‘Maybe I should write a book, ‘life is a bitch’.’ she mused.
A small tap on her door and Kurama’s voice politely asking if he could come in, tore her away from vengeful thoughts.
Kagome really didn’t want to see any one just then but she agreed. Kurama walked in carrying a small tray with two glasses, one was filled with water and the other was a white misty looking coloured fluid. Kagome as soon as she realised that she was clothed in her night wear sat up in her bed. She watched as he placed the tray on the small table next to her bed and then he sat down on the bed. His body turned into hers as he looked as her.
“I have made a drink up for you it should help you with the pain you are feeling.”
“Thanks.”
Kurama sighed as he stared in concern, she was quiet and obviously thinking about certain events, he couldn’t blame her and now he had some more things to discuss with her. Hiei was now in Makia searching for information on Takehiko as for Yusuke he had gone to see Keiko for a talk that was long over due Kurama privately thought.
“Where is … Hiei?”
Kurama winced, ‘damn it I hope she doesn’t take this the wrong way.’
“Hiei is in Makai at this moment, he wanted to gather some information on this Takehiko and why he is targeting us.”
“Oh.”
Kurama didn’t need his nose to smell the anger which rose up followed by the pain and sadness, he could feel it.
“Hiei will return soon Kagome don’t worry he should be fine.”
“Well of course he will be it’s not like he has to be worried about his soul getting ripped out any more.”
*’Oh that’s one angry miko, I don’t wish to be Hiei at this moment’*
#’I agree Youko but I understand why Hiei’s gone as well.’#
*’Well if I was you I’d explain a bit more at least to smooth things over.*
Kagome had her own little private monologue going on too. ‘So is this what it’s going to be like then, wham bam thank you mam and of you go. At least he could have stayed to see me wake up but noooo, of he goes along with my virginity too. Arghhh I could soooo punch some thing or some one just now.’
“Hiei did not wish to leave you Kagome.” In fact Hiei had carried her all the way to the apartment from the cave in Makai refusing to let any one else touch her until she was resting in her bed, even then he had changed her clothing with out help from the others.
“Really.” Kagome’s tone was disgruntled and disbelieving as she looked down at her bed covers missing Kurama’s slight smile.
“Yes really, Hiei does not like being vulnerable Kagome and at this present time we are in that situation with what is going on, Hiei and I believe even after the curse is finally broken and we are mated that we still will be targeted by Takehiko. So Hiei has gone to Makai to search for further answers to who he is and works for.”
“Hnn.” Kagome couldn’t help but say Hiei’s favourite expression.
Kurama was amused but he kept it well hidden.
“Now there are some others things I need to tell you. Please understand we did not yet wish this to happen so soon, but recent circumstances have pushed our hand to complete something sooner expected.”
Kagome listening to Kurama wandered basically why was he beating around the bush with what he wanted to say.
“Kurama just tell me plainly please.”
Kurama looked at the now scowling woman sitting intoxicatingly close and wondered how she will take his next few sentences.
“As you are aware you have mated with Hiei.” Seeing her brief blush and nod he continued. “From your history with demons have you became ever aware of their mating rituals when it comes to taking a mate?”
“I know some things from what a friend of mine had told me but she was only human and could only tell me so much.” Kagome’s face was rosy with embarrassment in remembrance of her talk with Sango in the hot springs that time, Kami how the fates have turned out she thought and also a slight giggle which made Kurama‘s left eyebrow quirk up at the sound.
“Mmm well as you are human you know how weaker you are to a demon.”
“Hey I’m not weak.” Angry at his words which reminded her of a certain inu hanyou who had sometimes insulted her with his words.
“I do not mean to insult you Kagome, I meant in strength, speed and stamina, humans are not on the same scale as demons.”
“I suppose you are right.” Begrudgingly she would give him that.
“Well because of you being a human who is to be mated to more than one demon, certain things must be done so that the mating bond will not be broken and be removed. Normally if all the parties that were involved were demon they could all mate at once.” Youko inside watching was amused to see just how red the girl was getting; he wondered just how far that the blush travelled too, a thought shared also by Kurama.
“But as you are human, we have to do it differently; Hiei has already started the mating ritual as you are aware by being your first and also by the bite on your neck.”
Kagome’s hand self consciously touched it where it was slightly throbbing as she did so she set something of inside her as that constant ache which at the moment had been lying dormant suddenly vibrated through her body as she lay back panting.
Kurama swore under his breathe as he tried to control the deep pit of lust which was swirling around him caused by the girl now lay breathless back in the pillows. Youko was also scratching the inner walls trying to get out and take over. ‘Damn, it wasn’t even his mark that she had touched and yet it still set him off’, he wondered how strong the effect will be when it was his own mark that was touched.
“That is one of the side effects that you will come accustomed to.” He breathed out hard.
“Oh …really!” Kagome was thinking ‘wowwww, I’d better not do that in public’ , a brief image of her sitting in Wacdonalds talking to Ayumi and friends and then her suddenly doing that came to mind.
“Well then I shall continue, once the mating has started it must be completed within a few days for the circle to complete.”
“Huh.”, confused Kagome started up at Kurama.
“What I mean is you have to mate with Yusuke and myself separately in the next few days and then after first matings, you must drink some of our blood. If you do not, the mating will not be completed and we will have to start all over again.”
“Huhhhhhhh.” Kagome swallowed as she felt the room close in on her. “Do mean now, do we have to do this right now?”
Kagome wanted the shrinking room to swallow her up. She closed her eyes and briefly wished but when she opened them, nope she was still here with Kurama staring at her now in slight amusement. ‘Hmph so not fair, yeah he would be amused, I’m the one who has to do all the sacrificing, and he just gets the benefits.’ she growled to herself.
Suddenly a hand clasped the side of her face and made her stare straight up into a mixture of green and gold eyes that looked at her with a swirling yearning in their depths making her heart thud painfully along other things.
“No Kagome its best you rest first, after all we want your full attention.” Kurama smiled predatorily at her.
So he walked into the kitchen sensing that Kurama was there washing some dishes.
“Yo.”
Kurama turned to face Yusuke easily deciphering the pissed off expressions on the Detective face.
“Tea?”
“I’d prefer a cold beer.”
Within a few minutes both men were sitting around the dining table in the kitchen each with their own drinks waiting for the other to break the silence.
“Keiko was fine, better than I expected, I’m not saying she wasn’t hurting but it was as if she understood. It was strange I expected to be slapped at least but all we did was talk.”
“She is a strong girl Yusuke, she will be fine.” Whilst Kurama was saying the placating words towards Yusuke, Youko was snorting in disgust inside.
*‘Yeah but not strong enough to accept Yusuke for what he was.’*
Yusuke just sighed and took a long swig of his beer, he had to ask.
“So how did she take it?”
Kurama smiled deeply at him back making Yusuke just laugh.
“That well?”
“I find that Kagome adapts rather well to things though she was embarrassed of course, she was more angry that Hiei wasn’t here.”
“Yep I expected that. So are you going to tell me now why you wanted Hiei to go first?”
Kurama looked back at Yusuke he had wondered when the Detective would get around to asking him. This time was better than any other he thought as Kagome was asleep with tiredness and the potion he had give her to take any lingering effects away also had a small sleeping draught mixed in it. Kurama knew it would be perfect so that he and Yusuke wouldn’t be disturbed whilst talking.
“There are many reasons why I wanted Hiei to go first.”
“Hmph.”
“One was I myself was not yet ready to mate with her and neither were you Yusuke not with Keiko hanging over you, you had still things to sort out with her then.”
“You are right, I’ll give you that.” Truthfully Yusuke did agree with the Kitsunes reasoning and he also wondered why Kurama hadn’t felt ready to mate the girl, hell you could see that the guy had falling for her just as he had.
Kurama with a brief pause seeing that Yusuke was recollecting himself carried on.
“Hiei as we know is very stubborn and rarely have I seen him give any type of concern or feelings, even with Yukina he has always been closely guarded.”
“Yep three-eyes is as emotionally stunted as is his height,” Yusuke belched out making Kurama winch at his crassness though he couldn’t argue with the detective’s plain logic. “And he has a pole of ice up his arse that not even his dragon could melt.” Yusuke finished with a small grin.
“Mmm well yes, this week I have noticed though a slight dip in his guard which I think is due to Kagome, though he’d rather die then admit it.”
“Really, I can’t say I have noticed, but you are closer to Hiei than I am.”
“Slight though they are I have noticed them.”
“So because Hiei has finally woken up to the fact that he has emotions just like us lesser ‘mortals’ you decided it was best that Hiei should go first.”
Yusuke surprised now as he stared at Kurama who answered him back with a very evil smile which was pure Youko, it made Yusuke shiver with the coldness of it. ‘Damn I wouldn’t want to be a target in one of their plans.’
“Hiei as we know is extremely possessive with anything he owns.” Kurama stated whilst watching Yusuke to see if he would understand.
Suddenly it sunk in Yusuke’s brain what Kurama had been trying to do.
“You evil cunning bastard.”
“Why thank you Yusuke.” With a smile Kurama leaned back elegantly as he stared at the kitchen ceiling.
“It was simply easier this way Yusuke, Hiei needed to admit to himself how he felt about Kagome.”
“So that’s why you wanted him to mate with her first.”
“Yes by letting him briefly taste something that he knows will give him a happiness that he has never truly had before and then by taking it away straight afterwards which is done by us mating her next. Though we aren’t really taking her away from him still he will be jealous knowing how Hiei operates.”
“Hey I don’t particular want to face a pissed off hybrid when he comes back from Makai.”
“Don’t worry Yusuke he won’t take it out on us, he will just admit to himself that he does feel for the girl. Remember how in the beginning he was reluctant to even touch her, where as yesterday there was no complaint from him.”
“Still if Hiei thinks you have double crossed him fox, I would run.”
“Yusuke don’t be so melodramatic, things will be fine.”
“Mmm well I suppose I should trust you or should I say both of you, because this has a taste of a certain kitsune dabbling in things.”
Kurama stood up and emptied the dregs of his cup down the sink before rinsing it out. As he stared out of the window without turning back to Yusuke he spoke.
“Off course you should trust us Yusuke; I am only planning for our future. It is going to be difficult three demons all very possessive and sharing one woman.”
Kurama turned and smiled at Yusuke who in turns felt rather warm at the look he was getting from him.
“We will all have to adapt to the changes it will bring.”
‘Oh shit, that look just scares me.’ Yusuke downed the rest of his drink quickly slightly tense now.
#‘I think we have said enough don’t you.’# Kurama did like the pale face Yusuke was turning though.
*‘Tsk you are such a spoilt sport; it was just getting fun too. I sooo like to tease that boy sometimes.’*
**‘Hnn it seems that foxes have to much time on their hands sometimes’**
Kurama eyes widened in shock, he hadn’t even felt Hiei’s aura at all.
#‘Hiei when did you get back’#
**‘Long enough to hear a rather interesting story fox’**, Hiei’s voice was amused actually making Kurama puzzled at this calm reaction.
*‘Well then fire-cracker, was our story true then’*
**‘Hnn’**
*‘Bastard.’ ;*
#‘Youko don’t push him’#
*‘Hmm the runt just doesn’t want to admit that we were right that’s all’*
**‘If you are finished, you will realise you have two guests waiting outside your door’**
#‘Who?’#
**‘They came back with me from Makai, one is the kitsune we met yesterday and the other, well lets just say he reminds me of Yusuke.’**
*‘Hey he’s teasing us that’s not fair.’*
A loud and familiar voice woke up Kagome from her peaceful slumber, she moved slowly in her bed as she stretched languorously, her brain half asleep still.
“Calm down old man, she’s still asleep just like he said.”
“Look runt if you call me old man one more time, I’m gonna …”
“I’ll tell mother on you.”
The younger voice sounded slightly familiar too, but the first one she heard…
In the large living room, Hiei, Kurama and Yusuke were standing by whilst watching two demons argue especially Yusuke who was thinking to himself ‘at least I’m not the only one this kid likes to annoy.’
#‘You are right he is like Yusuke’#
**‘Hnn’**
*‘I don’t like him’* came from an annoyed kitsune, Kurama briefly wondered why, ever since Shippo had came into their apartment with the other man, Youko had been acting rather jealous.
**‘It seems I’m not the only one who has problems.’**, sarcastically Hiei announced.
Youko’s reply was just a sound of gnashing teethe and a low growl.
In between the watching and the mental conversations the two demons were currently on the ground with the young kitsune been held down by the older demon who of course was an extremely annoyed inu-hanyou.
“Tsk it cruel to hit a child.” Even pinned down the kitsune was unrepentant with his quips as he smirked in delight at rubbing his adopted uncle the wrong way.
“Inu…Inu… yasha …?” Kagome’s voice cut through them all with the mix joy and hope that her tone held.
At her voice the concealment charms that both demons were presently using disappeared and now Shippo and Inuyasha. Inuyasha jumped up from his hold on Shippo and with a blur grabbed the young woman who was presently crying. Hiei wasn’t the only who growled at the hug, as Yusuke and Kurama stared at the pair with hot and cold eyes.
Kagome couldn’t believe it, Inuyasha was still alive and he was hugging her, his familiar smell surrounded and comforted her once more. The past weeks tension which had been building inside was let go as she cried in his grasp.
“Cut that out wench, gee I’m the one who hasn’t seen you for 500 years.”
“Shut-up dog-breathe.”
At this voice Kagome’s blurred vision turned to see a red haired kitsune staring at her. Something about those intense green eyes reminded her of someone.
“Shippo?”
The green eyes blazed in joy as the young demon joined in the family reunion.
“I’m glad you remember me mothe…Kagome.”
“Oh Shippo…”
Kagome couldn’t help but rub one of his tails which made him purr in joy, only two woman would be allowed to touch his tails and one was some one who he always felt and wanted to call mother.
“Hmm I don’t want to interrupt the Walton’s reunion going on but who the hell are you and why are you here?” Yusuke had enough of the two touching Kagome.
Inuyasha reluctantly let go of Kagome and turned to face the three with a growl.
“Ohh wench I can’t believe it, you have only been back home a week and you’ve going got your self mixed up with these three.”
Kagome went angry causing Shippo to smile as he knew next what was going to happen, something he had definitely missed.
“Osuwari!”
As Inuyasha plunged downwards, Yusuke couldn’t help but stand back a bit as Kagome’s glare turned on him.
“If any of you guys even think of calling me wench, bitch or any other derogatory terms, well let’s just say I can easily make some more of those subjugation necklaces.”
“Hnn onna as if I would let you get even close to try.” Hiei grunted out.
Kagome now looked at Hiei with a evil smile, though she was inside trying to control a blush now being face to face with him brought back a few sensual images. ‘Bad girl, bad girl, get your mind out of the gutter.’, from Hiei’s smug expression he had caught on to her thoughts. ‘Payback is required; time to use this curse for once for my own benefit!’ She thought. Kagome walked over to the hybrid with a slow walk making Hiei tense at her expression especially when her now aroused scent now hit him making him mentally groan as need smacked him.
Kurama seeing the confrontation and also the possible conclusion to it decided to intervene.
“Kagome delightful as it is to see Hiei squirm.” Ignoring the quick glare Hiei sent his way, he carried on. “This will interrupt the mating ritual.”
“Oh…” Kagome stopped, damn what was she thinking she just couldn’t resist though when she had saw Hiei, she had wanted to jump him.
“Yes and I believe you have some things to tell us.” With a pointed look at Inuyasha and Shippo who was behind her.
“Sure I suppose I should.”
As soon as the group got comfortably in the living room, Kagome told Hiei, Yusuke and Kurama about her past. This time unlike the tale she had told Keiko she included everything, the Shikon no Tama, about Naraku and Kikyo, how she met Inuyasha, Shippo and Sesshomaru amongst others she had met. It was long into the night that she talked, with several stops in between with Inuyasha and Shippo adding their own sides in.
Afterwards the three detectives were left in various states; Yusuke was in awe for a young woman to go through so much left in him slight shock. Sure he and the rest of the Spirit Detectives had gone through a lot but this seemed different. This was even before the barrier had gone up between Makai and Ningenkai. So knowing what Kagome had gone through had surprised him.
Kurama was feeling similar with Youko who acting smug, saying how he knew all along that their mate to be was strong and they wouldn’t have chosen any other.
Hiei would have snorted in disbelief if it wasn’t for the fact that his jagan was telling him that the story was the truth along with his growing bond to the miko that had already showed the woman‘s past. He knew the woman was unaware yet that he could tell what she was feeling too, she in turn will be able to do the same but for now he had placed a strong barrier up protecting his mind. Kagome was not yet ready to see his past which he was reluctant to show as of yet.
“Inuyasha I have some questions for you too? About Sango and Miroku, I know I am descended from them but still I want o ask some things. As well as Kagura, what happened, how come she died?”
A painful look came into Inuyasha face which Shippo echoed.
“Later Kagome, it’s late and you need your rest. I will tell you about Sango and Miroku but for Kagura that is my brother’s story to tell.”
“Your brother huh, that’s the first time I’ve ever heard you say that about Sesshomaru.”
“Yeah well it took a while for both of us to get to that state”
“Along with a few bruises, hard knocks and couple of bottles of Sake too.” Shippo announced from his favourite seat in between Kagome’s legs, were Kagome had been playing with his hair to another Kitsune’s displeasure.
“Shut up runt, it’s time we left any ways. We will come back in a few days after you have mated with the other two.”
“Why did you come today? You never told us.”
“I wanted to see Kagome that’s all and to see who the three were that she was going to mate.”
“What the fuck has it got to do with you?” Yusuke asked annoyed with the inu hanyou, Inuyasha with a speed surprising even Hiei quickly went other to Yusuke and grabbed him in a favourite move of Sesshomaru’s by grasping him around the neck with one hand, his claws digging in ever so slightly.
Yusuke’s demon blood raged and surged to the surface with his face changing slightly as his Mazoku markings came out as he went to punch Inuyasha back.
Inuyasha growled and let go of Yusuke as he threw him none too gently across the room.
“You’ll do I suppose.” He grunted out, Yusuke who had swiftly got up to counter-attack was stopped when Kurama touched his arm and nodded no.
“What the fuck do you mean I’ll do?”
“You aren’t weak kid and you’ve got a temper to, good you’ll need that with her.” As he cocked his eyebrow towards Kagome who scowled back.
“Don’t even think about it wench.”
“Osuwari! You know I have a temper too.” Ever so sweetly her expression turned.
As for Yusuke disbelief was on his face as realised the Inu hanyou had been testing him.
“Hmph I am going for a shower.” Yusuke walked out; of course he did step on a flattened dog demon on his way too.
Ten minutes later Kagome walked to the front door with the now concealed Inuyasha and Shippo to say goodbye.
“Bye wench, take care of your self.” Inuyasha winced in pain next as her hand came up even with concealing spell on and twisted one of his ears.
“Ouch.”
“Stop calling me wench…Uncle.”
“Uncle!”
“Yep you are you know since you are related to me.”
Inuyasha growled under his breathe as he stamped out in annoyance. Shippo quickly give Kagome one last hug and even a pout appeared on his face to.
“Bye Mother …I mean Kagome.”
“Shippo its okay you know you can call me mother if you like.” Shippo’s smile was even brighter than the sun just then.
“Really.”
“Sure I don’t mind at all, I cared for you like a son once and you will always feel like that to me, no matter how old you grow.”
“Great does that mean you are going to buy me some pocky too.”
“Shippo.” Kagome giggled at the expression on his face as he gave her the puppy eyes, or should she say the kit eyes instead.
After finally waving goodbye, Kagome closed the door and then decided she needed a bath. She could hear Hiei and Kurama talking and she didn’t feel like facing them just yet especially Hiei. So she walked over to the bathroom and knocked on the door, after waiting a few minutes and no answer, she walked in realising it was safe. It was still steamed up from when Yusuke and used the shower, he’d even left some clothes on the floor which she picked up and put in the linen basket.
‘Hmph if he thinks I am going to do this all the time he has another thing coming.’ she thought as she put the plug in the bath and turned on the taps.
Half an hour later she was lying back in a happy daze as the hot water soaked away her aches especially in one area.
“Oh man I needed this.”
A small knock disturbed her.
“Yes who is it?”
“Kurama. I have brought you some more clean towels I believe Yusuke has not left you any.”
Kagome looked around the bathroom and to her horror she found he was right. The door opened and Kagome yelped as she ducked down under the water, she didn’t even have any bubbles in to cover her as the scent was too strong and irritating to Hiei and the others.
Kurama walked in keeping his gaze tightly on the towel rail before him, not even glancing her way to Youko’s disgust.
*‘Come on just a little peek.’*
#‘No Youko.’#
*‘You are such a prude’#
Kurama gasped out.
#’I am not’#
*’Are!’*
#’Youko stop being so childish’#
*’You wouldn’t even know were to start with woman like her, if it wasn’t for this curse, we’d be suffering with old age before you even made a move on her.’*
#’Youko!!!!’#
*’Well then prove me wrong.’*
#‘This isn’t the place for it’#
*‘I don’t know, looks just fine to me’*
Kurama was getting rather annoyed at Youko; sure he wanted Kagome but…
*‘I see, you are scared.’*
#’I… I… I am not scared more worried I suppose.’#
In the mean time Kagome was getting nervous by Kurama’s stance, he had just stopped for no reason, next to the towel rail and wasn’t moving even the towels were still tightly grasped in his hand, from what she could gather from his fluctuating aura she had a feeling he was talking with Youko. It was quite remarkable to see as green and gold lights flickered around him. ‘At least I can still see things with my spiritual powers’.
“Kurama …Kurama are you okay?”
Kurama quickly turned hearing Kagome’s voice, inexplicably his eyes were drawn to her naked body mesmerized by droplets of water running down the upper half of her body.
*’Now that’s what I am talking about my boy.’*, with a gleeful tone Youko rubbed his hands together.
But to the inner kitsune’s horror, Kurama dropped the towels and with quick “Sorry.”, he walked out of the bathroom, slamming the door behind him with Kagome staring in shock.
*‘Noooooooooooooooo’*, rang in his ears as Youko shouted at him.
He had had many women and men chasing him from high school to being an adult. When he was older he had several relationships mainly one night stands preferably with married women, knowing that it was safer for him that way. But he had never falling for some one like he had for Kagome. Youko himself had falling for the girl in away he hadn’t expected.
“Kurama.”
Kurama turned around from his blank gaze of his garden to find Kagome had entered his room.
“Kagome!”
Kagome walked closer to him feeling slightly nervous, she had been in a mental whirl since he had left the bathroom all because of that last glance he give her before he left. And because of that look it had made her come to a decision and a plan.
Kagome’s face changed as she came closer to Kurama, a face which made the inner Youko’s ears peek up in attention along with other body parts. As a 1000 year old Kitsune he had seen that face on many a woman or man, demon or human, but to have that face being focused on him, well lets just say it was time that the Kitsune learned for once what it was like to be seduced for a change.
As for Kurama he gulped as Kagome who was dressed once more in that maroon dressing gown which had vividly stood out in his dreams the last two days, walked towards him with intent in her eyes on him. With her slim hands she untied the belt and then with a shrug of her shoulders, the dressing slipped down without a sliver of noise as the silk glided in to a pool at her feet.
This time it was Kurama who was leaning back on the bed as Kagome pushed him down and quickly straddled him and without further hesitation she kissed him deep and slow.
The heat which had awakened when Kagome had entered his room flared upwards as it rolled through Kurama but still he hesitated, as Kagome took her mouth from his and started to nibble on his neck making him groan. ‘God this was torture.’
“Kagome please…”
Kagome stopped as she looked into Kurama’s green eyes, she could see the doubt mixed in with desire, and it made her smile.
“Do you want me to stop?” As she spoke her nimble fingers were deftly opening the buttons on his shirt.
“Noo… I mean Yess.”
“You don’t sound so sure.”
Kurama grabbed hold of her hands pausing them just as they were about to open the buckle of his belt.
“Are you sure you want to go through with this?” He whispered into her neck.
“Kurama I am not sure about many things but this I am. I want to do this just as you do or am I wrong? Did I mistake what I saw in your eyes early when you looked at me.”
“What did you see?” Kurama groaned as she had loosened one of her hands and with quick move snaked down the loosened pants to the bulging hardness.
*‘Oh what a vixen.’*
“I saw many things Kurama, I saw need, desire, pain, want, hope and I saw love. And it was all for me, clearly I saw that without the curse affecting me then, I…I saw it.”
Kagome’s hand tightened around Kurama making him gasp and lie back with a thud as she held him in her hand. Kagome followed him down releasing her hold on him and then she quickly pressed small kisses on his chest and then with a evil smirk nipped one of his nipples causing Kurama to hiss at the pain and pleasure he felt just the.
As she came more up his body pressing her naked body to his wanting more contact, she whispered once more into his ear.
“So Kurama what I saw, was it just a lie? Or should I just walk out of this room?”
Kurama closed his eye, shutting out Youko who was screaming at him angrily and finally made up his mind.
With the speed and strength borrowed from the kitsune, he quickly turned Kagome over until he was straddling her.
And with Youko’s words resonating around him, he bent down to finish what Kagome had started.
#‘Mine!!!’#

Oh cliffy, I bet you want to kill me now. Sorry just felt right to stop here for some reason and not just because I take a sadistic pleasure in doing so. He he he he
On the next chapter Kagome will be meeting Kurama’s mom for definite and as for work, she gets some disappointing news in which a certain Houjo try’s to comfort her. Ohh the possibilities, will it be a possessive Hiei, or an intensively jealous Kitsune that comes to her rescue or could it be Yusuke who will teach Houjo a lesson why he was known as the toughest guy at Sarayashiki Junior High School.

‘Normal thoughts ’
A/N I’ve noticed Kagome is acting not as strong lately in the last few chapters, well it’s not going to last much longer as it’s about time she started turning the tables on the others. ‘Yeah life is a bitch and it’s called Kagome!’
P.S I said Kagome was meeting Kurama’s mother in this chapter, well that has been delayed for now till the next chapter.
Chapter 14. Reciprocating Feelings?
~*~*~*~*~
Darkness met and flowed around it as it floated alone. The darkness was its constant companion. There was an other that it could feel, but she who protected could not yet reach it as it lay there. Time did not touch it, seconds, minutes, hours, days, years, it meant nothing to it. Very rarely through that stasis of time it was disturbed by emotions touching it, hate, anger, fear, lust, and most of all a sense of love wrapping around it giving it a feeling of warmth and safety and it came from her. It pained when these emotions visited it because when it was gone, it was left in the darkness once more all alone. One time it even felt as it had been shattered into a thousand pieces, it’s entity split, until finally it was made whole and returned to it’s true place and it had changed as those emotions visited even more now. Leaving it with its own sensations and emotions and a will, it knew what it wanted. Soon it will be truly one with the other who fed and kept it safe
~*~*~*~*~
Kuwabara had one bitch of head ache when he awoke as well as a foul taste in his mouth, along with the feeling that he was forgetting something. He lay back in his bed, staring up at the ceiling and briefly wondered what it was. ‘had he gone drinking last night, cos he felt like he had a hangover now.’, nope that wasn’t it.Darkness met and flowed around it as it floated alone.

~*~*~*~*~
A bang on his door brought him out of the mental dilemma.
“Brother Get up, you have been in that stinking pit for nearly 12 hours now.”
“What.” and then he groaned; by Kami when he spoke it felt like he had shifted something in his brain he was sure.
Kuwabara finally moved but very slowly as he got up out of his bed and then walked out of his room across the landing to go the bathroom, well he knew one thing as he moved holding his head as it jerked in pain, he needed to relieve himself as his bladder was killing him.
Half an hour later, he was sitting in his kitchen, the brief shower he had had soothed the aches from his body a little bit but it still hadn’t refreshed his mind. The smell of his sister’s coffee was making him feel really sick too. Shizuru watching wondered with amusement when the lug was going to say something to her.
Yusuke had dropped him of early this morning about 4 o‘clock actually, along with a brief explanation of why he was out for the count and some instructions from Kurama. ‘The poor lug, to think he doesn’t yet remember that he tried to get into Botan’s pants.’ It was a shame that the potion hadn’t worked Shizuru thought with amusement.
Now most sisters wouldn’t be thinking like this, but well Shizuru was one of a kind. She knew how Kuwabara thought how he was in love with Yukina just as she was aware that Yukina didn’t feel that way back. Actually Yukina and she had become good friends over the years and Yukina had opened herself to Shizuru about her feelings for him, she saw him nothing more than as a good friend.
But Kuwabara was a stubborn fool almost as stubborn as Yusuke was and the fact that Yukina didn’t love him the way he wanted had never sunk in, no matter how many hints the shy ice maiden had been subtly trying to drop.
Yukina had actually on their last visit to Genkai’s asked her privately if she would tell him for her. When Shizuru asked why Yukina had blushed saying she had falling for some one else and she had also become of aware of the fact that a certain pretty blue-haired grim reaper had fallen for Kuwabara.
Shizuru snorted then making Kuwabara jump and wonder what the hell was wrong with his sister who was staring at him closely and she was rather quiet too, it made shivers go up his back along with a great sense of morbid fear.
“Baby bro what can you remember about yesterday?”
“Eh!”
***
Kagome once more wakened with pain, her inner thighs were sore along with an tingling ache that was running all the way through her body. As for her neck, the pain had moved from the back to now left side. She realised she was back in her room at Kurama’s which made her sigh with relief and then it hit her with a bombardment of memories.Kagome moaned and thought that explains the soreness, she couldn’t believe it she had actually had sex with Hiei. And was the most annoying part about it, she couldn’t even remember much as she had been so out of it. ‘Ohhhh that bastard Takehiko, when I get my hands on him, I’m going to twist his balls off and then purify them in front of his eyes.’
That man was going to die and she was going to be the one to do it too. ‘Maybe I should write a book, ‘life is a bitch’.’ she mused.
A small tap on her door and Kurama’s voice politely asking if he could come in, tore her away from vengeful thoughts.
Kagome really didn’t want to see any one just then but she agreed. Kurama walked in carrying a small tray with two glasses, one was filled with water and the other was a white misty looking coloured fluid. Kagome as soon as she realised that she was clothed in her night wear sat up in her bed. She watched as he placed the tray on the small table next to her bed and then he sat down on the bed. His body turned into hers as he looked as her.
“I have made a drink up for you it should help you with the pain you are feeling.”
“Thanks.”
Kurama sighed as he stared in concern, she was quiet and obviously thinking about certain events, he couldn’t blame her and now he had some more things to discuss with her. Hiei was now in Makia searching for information on Takehiko as for Yusuke he had gone to see Keiko for a talk that was long over due Kurama privately thought.
“Where is … Hiei?”
Kurama winced, ‘damn it I hope she doesn’t take this the wrong way.’
“Hiei is in Makai at this moment, he wanted to gather some information on this Takehiko and why he is targeting us.”
“Oh.”
Kurama didn’t need his nose to smell the anger which rose up followed by the pain and sadness, he could feel it.
“Hiei will return soon Kagome don’t worry he should be fine.”
“Well of course he will be it’s not like he has to be worried about his soul getting ripped out any more.”
*’Oh that’s one angry miko, I don’t wish to be Hiei at this moment’*
#’I agree Youko but I understand why Hiei’s gone as well.’#
*’Well if I was you I’d explain a bit more at least to smooth things over.*
Kagome had her own little private monologue going on too. ‘So is this what it’s going to be like then, wham bam thank you mam and of you go. At least he could have stayed to see me wake up but noooo, of he goes along with my virginity too. Arghhh I could soooo punch some thing or some one just now.’
“Hiei did not wish to leave you Kagome.” In fact Hiei had carried her all the way to the apartment from the cave in Makai refusing to let any one else touch her until she was resting in her bed, even then he had changed her clothing with out help from the others.
“Really.” Kagome’s tone was disgruntled and disbelieving as she looked down at her bed covers missing Kurama’s slight smile.
“Yes really, Hiei does not like being vulnerable Kagome and at this present time we are in that situation with what is going on, Hiei and I believe even after the curse is finally broken and we are mated that we still will be targeted by Takehiko. So Hiei has gone to Makai to search for further answers to who he is and works for.”
“Hnn.” Kagome couldn’t help but say Hiei’s favourite expression.
Kurama was amused but he kept it well hidden.
“Now there are some others things I need to tell you. Please understand we did not yet wish this to happen so soon, but recent circumstances have pushed our hand to complete something sooner expected.”
Kagome listening to Kurama wandered basically why was he beating around the bush with what he wanted to say.
“Kurama just tell me plainly please.”
Kurama looked at the now scowling woman sitting intoxicatingly close and wondered how she will take his next few sentences.
“As you are aware you have mated with Hiei.” Seeing her brief blush and nod he continued. “From your history with demons have you became ever aware of their mating rituals when it comes to taking a mate?”
“I know some things from what a friend of mine had told me but she was only human and could only tell me so much.” Kagome’s face was rosy with embarrassment in remembrance of her talk with Sango in the hot springs that time, Kami how the fates have turned out she thought and also a slight giggle which made Kurama‘s left eyebrow quirk up at the sound.
“Mmm well as you are human you know how weaker you are to a demon.”
“Hey I’m not weak.” Angry at his words which reminded her of a certain inu hanyou who had sometimes insulted her with his words.
“I do not mean to insult you Kagome, I meant in strength, speed and stamina, humans are not on the same scale as demons.”
“I suppose you are right.” Begrudgingly she would give him that.
“Well because of you being a human who is to be mated to more than one demon, certain things must be done so that the mating bond will not be broken and be removed. Normally if all the parties that were involved were demon they could all mate at once.” Youko inside watching was amused to see just how red the girl was getting; he wondered just how far that the blush travelled too, a thought shared also by Kurama.
“But as you are human, we have to do it differently; Hiei has already started the mating ritual as you are aware by being your first and also by the bite on your neck.”
Kagome’s hand self consciously touched it where it was slightly throbbing as she did so she set something of inside her as that constant ache which at the moment had been lying dormant suddenly vibrated through her body as she lay back panting.
Kurama swore under his breathe as he tried to control the deep pit of lust which was swirling around him caused by the girl now lay breathless back in the pillows. Youko was also scratching the inner walls trying to get out and take over. ‘Damn, it wasn’t even his mark that she had touched and yet it still set him off’, he wondered how strong the effect will be when it was his own mark that was touched.
“That is one of the side effects that you will come accustomed to.” He breathed out hard.
“Oh …really!” Kagome was thinking ‘wowwww, I’d better not do that in public’ , a brief image of her sitting in Wacdonalds talking to Ayumi and friends and then her suddenly doing that came to mind.
“Well then I shall continue, once the mating has started it must be completed within a few days for the circle to complete.”
“Huh.”, confused Kagome started up at Kurama.
“What I mean is you have to mate with Yusuke and myself separately in the next few days and then after first matings, you must drink some of our blood. If you do not, the mating will not be completed and we will have to start all over again.”
“Huhhhhhhh.” Kagome swallowed as she felt the room close in on her. “Do mean now, do we have to do this right now?”
Kagome wanted the shrinking room to swallow her up. She closed her eyes and briefly wished but when she opened them, nope she was still here with Kurama staring at her now in slight amusement. ‘Hmph so not fair, yeah he would be amused, I’m the one who has to do all the sacrificing, and he just gets the benefits.’ she growled to herself.
Suddenly a hand clasped the side of her face and made her stare straight up into a mixture of green and gold eyes that looked at her with a swirling yearning in their depths making her heart thud painfully along other things.
“No Kagome its best you rest first, after all we want your full attention.” Kurama smiled predatorily at her.
***
Yusuke was glad to be home after the last few hours at Keiko had taken its toll on him emotionally. Keiko to his relief had acted more calmly and with a larger understanding than he expected which made him wonder if Keiko had ever truly loved him at all. ‘Argh you baka stop thinking about it.’ Yusuke was tired and ready to hit the sack at least to have a quick nap but first he wanted to talk to Kurama, he had some questions that needed answering and he was going to get them no matter what.So he walked into the kitchen sensing that Kurama was there washing some dishes.
“Yo.”
Kurama turned to face Yusuke easily deciphering the pissed off expressions on the Detective face.
“Tea?”
“I’d prefer a cold beer.”
Within a few minutes both men were sitting around the dining table in the kitchen each with their own drinks waiting for the other to break the silence.
“Keiko was fine, better than I expected, I’m not saying she wasn’t hurting but it was as if she understood. It was strange I expected to be slapped at least but all we did was talk.”
“She is a strong girl Yusuke, she will be fine.” Whilst Kurama was saying the placating words towards Yusuke, Youko was snorting in disgust inside.
*‘Yeah but not strong enough to accept Yusuke for what he was.’*
Yusuke just sighed and took a long swig of his beer, he had to ask.
“So how did she take it?”
Kurama smiled deeply at him back making Yusuke just laugh.
“That well?”
“I find that Kagome adapts rather well to things though she was embarrassed of course, she was more angry that Hiei wasn’t here.”
“Yep I expected that. So are you going to tell me now why you wanted Hiei to go first?”
Kurama looked back at Yusuke he had wondered when the Detective would get around to asking him. This time was better than any other he thought as Kagome was asleep with tiredness and the potion he had give her to take any lingering effects away also had a small sleeping draught mixed in it. Kurama knew it would be perfect so that he and Yusuke wouldn’t be disturbed whilst talking.
“There are many reasons why I wanted Hiei to go first.”
“Hmph.”
“One was I myself was not yet ready to mate with her and neither were you Yusuke not with Keiko hanging over you, you had still things to sort out with her then.”
“You are right, I’ll give you that.” Truthfully Yusuke did agree with the Kitsunes reasoning and he also wondered why Kurama hadn’t felt ready to mate the girl, hell you could see that the guy had falling for her just as he had.
Kurama with a brief pause seeing that Yusuke was recollecting himself carried on.
“Hiei as we know is very stubborn and rarely have I seen him give any type of concern or feelings, even with Yukina he has always been closely guarded.”
“Yep three-eyes is as emotionally stunted as is his height,” Yusuke belched out making Kurama winch at his crassness though he couldn’t argue with the detective’s plain logic. “And he has a pole of ice up his arse that not even his dragon could melt.” Yusuke finished with a small grin.
“Mmm well yes, this week I have noticed though a slight dip in his guard which I think is due to Kagome, though he’d rather die then admit it.”
“Really, I can’t say I have noticed, but you are closer to Hiei than I am.”
“Slight though they are I have noticed them.”
“So because Hiei has finally woken up to the fact that he has emotions just like us lesser ‘mortals’ you decided it was best that Hiei should go first.”
Yusuke surprised now as he stared at Kurama who answered him back with a very evil smile which was pure Youko, it made Yusuke shiver with the coldness of it. ‘Damn I wouldn’t want to be a target in one of their plans.’
“Hiei as we know is extremely possessive with anything he owns.” Kurama stated whilst watching Yusuke to see if he would understand.
Suddenly it sunk in Yusuke’s brain what Kurama had been trying to do.
“You evil cunning bastard.”
“Why thank you Yusuke.” With a smile Kurama leaned back elegantly as he stared at the kitchen ceiling.
“It was simply easier this way Yusuke, Hiei needed to admit to himself how he felt about Kagome.”
“So that’s why you wanted him to mate with her first.”
“Yes by letting him briefly taste something that he knows will give him a happiness that he has never truly had before and then by taking it away straight afterwards which is done by us mating her next. Though we aren’t really taking her away from him still he will be jealous knowing how Hiei operates.”
“Hey I don’t particular want to face a pissed off hybrid when he comes back from Makai.”
“Don’t worry Yusuke he won’t take it out on us, he will just admit to himself that he does feel for the girl. Remember how in the beginning he was reluctant to even touch her, where as yesterday there was no complaint from him.”
“Still if Hiei thinks you have double crossed him fox, I would run.”
“Yusuke don’t be so melodramatic, things will be fine.”
“Mmm well I suppose I should trust you or should I say both of you, because this has a taste of a certain kitsune dabbling in things.”
Kurama stood up and emptied the dregs of his cup down the sink before rinsing it out. As he stared out of the window without turning back to Yusuke he spoke.
“Off course you should trust us Yusuke; I am only planning for our future. It is going to be difficult three demons all very possessive and sharing one woman.”
Kurama turned and smiled at Yusuke who in turns felt rather warm at the look he was getting from him.
“We will all have to adapt to the changes it will bring.”
‘Oh shit, that look just scares me.’ Yusuke downed the rest of his drink quickly slightly tense now.
#‘I think we have said enough don’t you.’# Kurama did like the pale face Yusuke was turning though.
*‘Tsk you are such a spoilt sport; it was just getting fun too. I sooo like to tease that boy sometimes.’*
**‘Hnn it seems that foxes have to much time on their hands sometimes’**
Kurama eyes widened in shock, he hadn’t even felt Hiei’s aura at all.
#‘Hiei when did you get back’#
**‘Long enough to hear a rather interesting story fox’**, Hiei’s voice was amused actually making Kurama puzzled at this calm reaction.
*‘Well then fire-cracker, was our story true then’*
**‘Hnn’**
*‘Bastard.’ ;*
#‘Youko don’t push him’#
*‘Hmm the runt just doesn’t want to admit that we were right that’s all’*
**‘If you are finished, you will realise you have two guests waiting outside your door’**
#‘Who?’#
**‘They came back with me from Makai, one is the kitsune we met yesterday and the other, well lets just say he reminds me of Yusuke.’**
*‘Hey he’s teasing us that’s not fair.’*
***
“So where the fuck is she?”A loud and familiar voice woke up Kagome from her peaceful slumber, she moved slowly in her bed as she stretched languorously, her brain half asleep still.
“Calm down old man, she’s still asleep just like he said.”
“Look runt if you call me old man one more time, I’m gonna …”
“I’ll tell mother on you.”
The younger voice sounded slightly familiar too, but the first one she heard…
In the large living room, Hiei, Kurama and Yusuke were standing by whilst watching two demons argue especially Yusuke who was thinking to himself ‘at least I’m not the only one this kid likes to annoy.’
#‘You are right he is like Yusuke’#
**‘Hnn’**
*‘I don’t like him’* came from an annoyed kitsune, Kurama briefly wondered why, ever since Shippo had came into their apartment with the other man, Youko had been acting rather jealous.
**‘It seems I’m not the only one who has problems.’**, sarcastically Hiei announced.
Youko’s reply was just a sound of gnashing teethe and a low growl.
In between the watching and the mental conversations the two demons were currently on the ground with the young kitsune been held down by the older demon who of course was an extremely annoyed inu-hanyou.
“Tsk it cruel to hit a child.” Even pinned down the kitsune was unrepentant with his quips as he smirked in delight at rubbing his adopted uncle the wrong way.
“Inu…Inu… yasha …?” Kagome’s voice cut through them all with the mix joy and hope that her tone held.
At her voice the concealment charms that both demons were presently using disappeared and now Shippo and Inuyasha. Inuyasha jumped up from his hold on Shippo and with a blur grabbed the young woman who was presently crying. Hiei wasn’t the only who growled at the hug, as Yusuke and Kurama stared at the pair with hot and cold eyes.
Kagome couldn’t believe it, Inuyasha was still alive and he was hugging her, his familiar smell surrounded and comforted her once more. The past weeks tension which had been building inside was let go as she cried in his grasp.
“Cut that out wench, gee I’m the one who hasn’t seen you for 500 years.”
“Shut-up dog-breathe.”
At this voice Kagome’s blurred vision turned to see a red haired kitsune staring at her. Something about those intense green eyes reminded her of someone.
“Shippo?”
The green eyes blazed in joy as the young demon joined in the family reunion.
“I’m glad you remember me mothe…Kagome.”
“Oh Shippo…”
Kagome couldn’t help but rub one of his tails which made him purr in joy, only two woman would be allowed to touch his tails and one was some one who he always felt and wanted to call mother.
“Hmm I don’t want to interrupt the Walton’s reunion going on but who the hell are you and why are you here?” Yusuke had enough of the two touching Kagome.
Inuyasha reluctantly let go of Kagome and turned to face the three with a growl.
“Ohh wench I can’t believe it, you have only been back home a week and you’ve going got your self mixed up with these three.”
Kagome went angry causing Shippo to smile as he knew next what was going to happen, something he had definitely missed.
“Osuwari!”
As Inuyasha plunged downwards, Yusuke couldn’t help but stand back a bit as Kagome’s glare turned on him.
“If any of you guys even think of calling me wench, bitch or any other derogatory terms, well let’s just say I can easily make some more of those subjugation necklaces.”
“Hnn onna as if I would let you get even close to try.” Hiei grunted out.
Kagome now looked at Hiei with a evil smile, though she was inside trying to control a blush now being face to face with him brought back a few sensual images. ‘Bad girl, bad girl, get your mind out of the gutter.’, from Hiei’s smug expression he had caught on to her thoughts. ‘Payback is required; time to use this curse for once for my own benefit!’ She thought. Kagome walked over to the hybrid with a slow walk making Hiei tense at her expression especially when her now aroused scent now hit him making him mentally groan as need smacked him.
Kurama seeing the confrontation and also the possible conclusion to it decided to intervene.
“Kagome delightful as it is to see Hiei squirm.” Ignoring the quick glare Hiei sent his way, he carried on. “This will interrupt the mating ritual.”
“Oh…” Kagome stopped, damn what was she thinking she just couldn’t resist though when she had saw Hiei, she had wanted to jump him.
“Yes and I believe you have some things to tell us.” With a pointed look at Inuyasha and Shippo who was behind her.
“Sure I suppose I should.”
As soon as the group got comfortably in the living room, Kagome told Hiei, Yusuke and Kurama about her past. This time unlike the tale she had told Keiko she included everything, the Shikon no Tama, about Naraku and Kikyo, how she met Inuyasha, Shippo and Sesshomaru amongst others she had met. It was long into the night that she talked, with several stops in between with Inuyasha and Shippo adding their own sides in.
Afterwards the three detectives were left in various states; Yusuke was in awe for a young woman to go through so much left in him slight shock. Sure he and the rest of the Spirit Detectives had gone through a lot but this seemed different. This was even before the barrier had gone up between Makai and Ningenkai. So knowing what Kagome had gone through had surprised him.
Kurama was feeling similar with Youko who acting smug, saying how he knew all along that their mate to be was strong and they wouldn’t have chosen any other.
Hiei would have snorted in disbelief if it wasn’t for the fact that his jagan was telling him that the story was the truth along with his growing bond to the miko that had already showed the woman‘s past. He knew the woman was unaware yet that he could tell what she was feeling too, she in turn will be able to do the same but for now he had placed a strong barrier up protecting his mind. Kagome was not yet ready to see his past which he was reluctant to show as of yet.
“Inuyasha I have some questions for you too? About Sango and Miroku, I know I am descended from them but still I want o ask some things. As well as Kagura, what happened, how come she died?”
A painful look came into Inuyasha face which Shippo echoed.
“Later Kagome, it’s late and you need your rest. I will tell you about Sango and Miroku but for Kagura that is my brother’s story to tell.”
“Your brother huh, that’s the first time I’ve ever heard you say that about Sesshomaru.”
“Yeah well it took a while for both of us to get to that state”
“Along with a few bruises, hard knocks and couple of bottles of Sake too.” Shippo announced from his favourite seat in between Kagome’s legs, were Kagome had been playing with his hair to another Kitsune’s displeasure.
“Shut up runt, it’s time we left any ways. We will come back in a few days after you have mated with the other two.”
“Why did you come today? You never told us.”
“I wanted to see Kagome that’s all and to see who the three were that she was going to mate.”
“What the fuck has it got to do with you?” Yusuke asked annoyed with the inu hanyou, Inuyasha with a speed surprising even Hiei quickly went other to Yusuke and grabbed him in a favourite move of Sesshomaru’s by grasping him around the neck with one hand, his claws digging in ever so slightly.
Yusuke’s demon blood raged and surged to the surface with his face changing slightly as his Mazoku markings came out as he went to punch Inuyasha back.
Inuyasha growled and let go of Yusuke as he threw him none too gently across the room.
“You’ll do I suppose.” He grunted out, Yusuke who had swiftly got up to counter-attack was stopped when Kurama touched his arm and nodded no.
“What the fuck do you mean I’ll do?”
“You aren’t weak kid and you’ve got a temper to, good you’ll need that with her.” As he cocked his eyebrow towards Kagome who scowled back.
“Don’t even think about it wench.”
“Osuwari! You know I have a temper too.” Ever so sweetly her expression turned.
As for Yusuke disbelief was on his face as realised the Inu hanyou had been testing him.
“Hmph I am going for a shower.” Yusuke walked out; of course he did step on a flattened dog demon on his way too.
Ten minutes later Kagome walked to the front door with the now concealed Inuyasha and Shippo to say goodbye.
“Bye wench, take care of your self.” Inuyasha winced in pain next as her hand came up even with concealing spell on and twisted one of his ears.
“Ouch.”
“Stop calling me wench…Uncle.”
“Uncle!”
“Yep you are you know since you are related to me.”
Inuyasha growled under his breathe as he stamped out in annoyance. Shippo quickly give Kagome one last hug and even a pout appeared on his face to.
“Bye Mother …I mean Kagome.”
“Shippo its okay you know you can call me mother if you like.” Shippo’s smile was even brighter than the sun just then.
“Really.”
“Sure I don’t mind at all, I cared for you like a son once and you will always feel like that to me, no matter how old you grow.”
“Great does that mean you are going to buy me some pocky too.”
“Shippo.” Kagome giggled at the expression on his face as he gave her the puppy eyes, or should she say the kit eyes instead.
After finally waving goodbye, Kagome closed the door and then decided she needed a bath. She could hear Hiei and Kurama talking and she didn’t feel like facing them just yet especially Hiei. So she walked over to the bathroom and knocked on the door, after waiting a few minutes and no answer, she walked in realising it was safe. It was still steamed up from when Yusuke and used the shower, he’d even left some clothes on the floor which she picked up and put in the linen basket.
‘Hmph if he thinks I am going to do this all the time he has another thing coming.’ she thought as she put the plug in the bath and turned on the taps.
Half an hour later she was lying back in a happy daze as the hot water soaked away her aches especially in one area.
“Oh man I needed this.”
A small knock disturbed her.
“Yes who is it?”
“Kurama. I have brought you some more clean towels I believe Yusuke has not left you any.”
Kagome looked around the bathroom and to her horror she found he was right. The door opened and Kagome yelped as she ducked down under the water, she didn’t even have any bubbles in to cover her as the scent was too strong and irritating to Hiei and the others.
Kurama walked in keeping his gaze tightly on the towel rail before him, not even glancing her way to Youko’s disgust.
*‘Come on just a little peek.’*
#‘No Youko.’#
*‘You are such a prude’#
Kurama gasped out.
#’I am not’#
*’Are!’*
#’Youko stop being so childish’#
*’You wouldn’t even know were to start with woman like her, if it wasn’t for this curse, we’d be suffering with old age before you even made a move on her.’*
#’Youko!!!!’#
*’Well then prove me wrong.’*
#‘This isn’t the place for it’#
*‘I don’t know, looks just fine to me’*
Kurama was getting rather annoyed at Youko; sure he wanted Kagome but…
*‘I see, you are scared.’*
#’I… I… I am not scared more worried I suppose.’#
In the mean time Kagome was getting nervous by Kurama’s stance, he had just stopped for no reason, next to the towel rail and wasn’t moving even the towels were still tightly grasped in his hand, from what she could gather from his fluctuating aura she had a feeling he was talking with Youko. It was quite remarkable to see as green and gold lights flickered around him. ‘At least I can still see things with my spiritual powers’.
“Kurama …Kurama are you okay?”
Kurama quickly turned hearing Kagome’s voice, inexplicably his eyes were drawn to her naked body mesmerized by droplets of water running down the upper half of her body.
*’Now that’s what I am talking about my boy.’*, with a gleeful tone Youko rubbed his hands together.
But to the inner kitsune’s horror, Kurama dropped the towels and with quick “Sorry.”, he walked out of the bathroom, slamming the door behind him with Kagome staring in shock.
*‘Noooooooooooooooo’*, rang in his ears as Youko shouted at him.
***
It was after midnight; Youko was pouting and refusing to talk him, which at the moment Kurama was rather happy about. He knew Youko didn’t understand why he didn’t go the next step with Kagome. It was killing him to hold back too but he didn’t want to mate with the girl just because they had to because of the curse. He wanted Kagome to want to do it because she… ‘You want her love.’ he thought silly it may sound but he did.He had had many women and men chasing him from high school to being an adult. When he was older he had several relationships mainly one night stands preferably with married women, knowing that it was safer for him that way. But he had never falling for some one like he had for Kagome. Youko himself had falling for the girl in away he hadn’t expected.
“Kurama.”
Kurama turned around from his blank gaze of his garden to find Kagome had entered his room.
“Kagome!”
Kagome walked closer to him feeling slightly nervous, she had been in a mental whirl since he had left the bathroom all because of that last glance he give her before he left. And because of that look it had made her come to a decision and a plan.
Kagome’s face changed as she came closer to Kurama, a face which made the inner Youko’s ears peek up in attention along with other body parts. As a 1000 year old Kitsune he had seen that face on many a woman or man, demon or human, but to have that face being focused on him, well lets just say it was time that the Kitsune learned for once what it was like to be seduced for a change.
As for Kurama he gulped as Kagome who was dressed once more in that maroon dressing gown which had vividly stood out in his dreams the last two days, walked towards him with intent in her eyes on him. With her slim hands she untied the belt and then with a shrug of her shoulders, the dressing slipped down without a sliver of noise as the silk glided in to a pool at her feet.
This time it was Kurama who was leaning back on the bed as Kagome pushed him down and quickly straddled him and without further hesitation she kissed him deep and slow.
The heat which had awakened when Kagome had entered his room flared upwards as it rolled through Kurama but still he hesitated, as Kagome took her mouth from his and started to nibble on his neck making him groan. ‘God this was torture.’
“Kagome please…”
Kagome stopped as she looked into Kurama’s green eyes, she could see the doubt mixed in with desire, and it made her smile.
“Do you want me to stop?” As she spoke her nimble fingers were deftly opening the buttons on his shirt.
“Noo… I mean Yess.”
“You don’t sound so sure.”
Kurama grabbed hold of her hands pausing them just as they were about to open the buckle of his belt.
“Are you sure you want to go through with this?” He whispered into her neck.
“Kurama I am not sure about many things but this I am. I want to do this just as you do or am I wrong? Did I mistake what I saw in your eyes early when you looked at me.”
“What did you see?” Kurama groaned as she had loosened one of her hands and with quick move snaked down the loosened pants to the bulging hardness.
*‘Oh what a vixen.’*
“I saw many things Kurama, I saw need, desire, pain, want, hope and I saw love. And it was all for me, clearly I saw that without the curse affecting me then, I…I saw it.”
Kagome’s hand tightened around Kurama making him gasp and lie back with a thud as she held him in her hand. Kagome followed him down releasing her hold on him and then she quickly pressed small kisses on his chest and then with a evil smirk nipped one of his nipples causing Kurama to hiss at the pain and pleasure he felt just the.
As she came more up his body pressing her naked body to his wanting more contact, she whispered once more into his ear.
“So Kurama what I saw, was it just a lie? Or should I just walk out of this room?”
Kurama closed his eye, shutting out Youko who was screaming at him angrily and finally made up his mind.
With the speed and strength borrowed from the kitsune, he quickly turned Kagome over until he was straddling her.
And with Youko’s words resonating around him, he bent down to finish what Kagome had started.
#‘Mine!!!’#
TBC
Oh cliffy, I bet you want to kill me now. Sorry just felt right to stop here for some reason and not just because I take a sadistic pleasure in doing so. He he he he
On the next chapter Kagome will be meeting Kurama’s mom for definite and as for work, she gets some disappointing news in which a certain Houjo try’s to comfort her. Ohh the possibilities, will it be a possessive Hiei, or an intensively jealous Kitsune that comes to her rescue or could it be Yusuke who will teach Houjo a lesson why he was known as the toughest guy at Sarayashiki Junior High School.
