Koigokoro
by Sweet-Kioku
SUMMARY: Kagome is mated (against her will) with Koga and has the marks on her neck to prove it. Inuyasha can never have Kagome as a mate now because of this. On top of that, Koga also steals the shikon no tama and has formed an alliance with Naraku! Can they retrieve the shikon jewel before Naraku uses it for evil? And can Inuyasha and Kagome ever be mates? InuKag SanMir pairings. Rated R for lemons in later chapters!
DISCLAIMER: I do not own Inuyasha.
CHAPTER I: Disaster
Inuyasha closed his eyes. He thought that maybe if he kept his eyes closed for a long time, maybe he could erase the images of Kagome's tearstained face, the marks on her neck, and the missing shikon no tama.
The miko had left. She had jumped down the well, her clothes shredded, the shikon no tama ripped from her neck, and the two bite marks permanently embedded in her neck.
One might think, at first, that she and Inuyasha had gotten into a fight. This was, of course, the usual reason that Kagome would go home like this.
But not this time. This time it was not Inuyasha's fault.
It was Koga's.
Koga and Naraku had formed an alliance. Naraku had promised Koga that he could have Kagome if he would steal the shikon shards and give them to Naraku.
Koga took the shards, raped Kagome, made his mark on her neck, and ran away.
Inuyasha saw Kagome, such a mess, and instantly noticed the half-completed shikon no tama missing from the chain around her neck.
"KAGOME, where are the shards!!???" Inuyasha shouted at her as she continued to head towards the well.
Kagome stopped walking for a second, but did not turn to look at him. After this pause, in which the silence was almost unbearable, Kagome started to walk again, only to be stopped by Inuyasha's clawed hand.
"ANSWER ME!!" he screeched as he turned her around to face him.
That's when he saw it.
The mark of another youkai or hanyou.
Kagome, after a moment, realized what Inuyasha was staring at with so much shock and hurt in his eyes. She quickly lifted her torn sleeve to cover the mark. But it was too late. Inuyasha had already seen and understood the mark and what it meant.
"Kagome...." Inuyasha said, in a broken, hoarse voice. "W-why......why would you do this? Why.....did you go and....and....m-mate with......someone....else.....?" Inuyasha could barely get the words past his throat. He felt his throat tighten as he choked out the words "someone else." He felt his eyes burn and itch with tears, and his chest ached with immense pain that he knew would leave so many scars.
"Inuyasha....." Kagome said, in a barely audible whisper. She walked to the well, and then turned back to look at the stunned amber eyes that were slowly filling with tears.
He waited—scarcely breathing because of the pain in his chest—for whatever explanation Kagome might have for what she had done.
"I didn't mate with anyone," she said, and just as she jumped into the well, she left Inuyasha with these words:
"Koga stole the shikon jewel and raped me."
So Inuyasha sat down where he stood and stared at the well. Maybe, if he watched long enough, Kagome would reappear. And when she did, Inuyasha would hug her and kiss her and finally tell her that he loved her.
But Inuyasha knew that Kagome wouldn't just "reappear." He knew that she might never come back. Not after an incident like this.
He had not protected her. Why? Why hadn't he done something? Wouldn't he have been able to smell her tears, her fear, mixed with Koga's arousal and everything else?
Inuyasha sat there, staring at the well with tears streaming down his face. He regretted yelling at Kagome. She had lost her virginity, her freedom to choose her mate and the shikon no tama all in one day.
The others came at last.
"INUYASHA!! We heard screaming! Where is Lady Kagome!?" Miroku cried, running up to Inuyasha with Sango and Shippo.
"Inuyasha? Are you......are you crying?" Sango asked in disbelief, seeing Inuyasha's face.
Inuyasha said nothing, but continued staring at the well.
"Where is Kagome!?" Shippo barked, grabbing hold of Inuyasha's haori and yelling in his face.
Inuyasha returned Shippo's angered gaze.
"She's gone," Inuyasha said briskly. He stood up, knocking Shippo over and pushing the others aside. He began to walk towards the well. He would retrieve Kagome.
-----------------------
Kagome simply lay under the covers, sobbing uncontrollably. She had come home to an empty house, as her family was out, and she had a garbage can near her bed for fear that she might throw up at any second. She could still feel Koga shoving himself into her, ripping at her clothes, kissing her harshly, hungrily. And after cumming inside her, ripping the shikon no tama from its chain and biting her neck, he ran off, leaving her on the dirt floor of the cave. She had thrown up there, in the cave, and then lay there, shivering and crying until she finally had enough strength to walk to the well.
She remembered Inuyasha's angry face when he saw her without the jewel. The way he had shouted at her made her feel worse, if that was possible. And then, the way he had reacted when he saw the marks of someone else on her neck.....but why should he have cared? He was always such a jerk to Kagome. Why should he care who she mated with? Not that she actually wanted to mate with Koga, but still......
Kagome dared to hope that Inuyasha had cared because he loved her. If only he loved me......Kagome thought as she began to cry harder.
-----------------------
Because of her noisy sobbing, she did not hear Inuyasha come into her room through the window.
Inuyasha looked at the wad of blankets huddled up on the bed; under which was a sobbing Kagome. He slowly walked over to her bed and watched her as she shook with every sob. He quietly sat down and pulled the covers away to see Kagome's startled face looking back at him.
Under closer inspection, Kagome looked horrible. Her beautiful raven hair was now a tangled and dirty mess; her chocolate eyes dull and pained, her wonderful complexion scratched and bruised, her clothes shredded, her cheeks dripping with tears......her neck bitten by that scoundrel Koga......
It was too much for Inuyasha to take. To Kagome's great surprise, Inuyasha wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close to him. Kagome did not struggle, but stayed in his arms, and, although stunned, savored every second that he held her.
Inuyasha gently stroked her messy hair, wishing that he could take every pain she felt and bottle it up and send it far away so that she wouldn't feel the pain anymore. He wanted to make the tears and the marks on her neck just disappear forever.
But he couldn't. There was nothing he could do.
Kagome resumed her sobbing, crying into Inuyasha's haori. After a while, her crying subsided, and she spoke for the first time in about an hour.
"Inuyasha.....these marks mean that I belong to Koga.....don't they?" Kagome said in a soft, broken voice.
Inuyasha's eyes welled up with tears again at the horrible thought of Kagome belonging to someone else.
".......Yes..." Inuyasha said with some difficulty. It was so hard to talk now.
"But.....I don't want to belong to Koga.....I hate Koga. Isn't there anything we can do?" Kagome asked, her brown eyes shining with more tears as she stared up into Inuyasha's amber orbs.
Inuyasha turned away from those eyes. It felt like something was ripping through his chest when she gave him that look.
"No," he whispered hoarsely. "No, Kagome."
