Hypocrisy
"Inuyasha, could you check on Rin today?" Kagome asked absently while nursing their third addition in bed. Inuyasha cocked his head to look at her. He was sitting near the entrance of their hut. Morning sunshine illuminated half his body while falling across Kagome's lap. His eyes softened at the sight of his wife and daughter. Her hair was messed and hanging limply around her face, yet her eyes sparkled brightly.
"I guess I could go out that way." He mumbled. Kagome smiled as a seven year old boy entered behind Inuyasha. His long white hair was pulled into a messy pony tail.
"Mom, can I visit Uncle Miroku's today?" He asked cheerfully. Their oldest son and Miroku's only son were partners in crime. Mischievous brown eyes beamed at his mother. He toyed with the edge of his brown sleeves.
"Be back for supper." Kagome said in a tired voice. The boy scampered off with inhuman speed. Inuyasha cocked a brow. "I don't care what he's up to, so long as I only have to deal with one of your spawn for a few hours." She grumbled. "Now please go check on Rin. I don't like her living alone now that Kaede is gone." Inuyasha huffed, but slowly stood and casually left the hut.
Darting off towards forested hills he caught the scent of his brother. His lips curled into a silent growl. For the past eight years Sesshomaru had been checking on the girl. Always unexpectedly and never more than a few hours. Inuyasha knew the girl loved his brother and for that he pittied her. The girl was now a young woman no man wanted. She was beautiful, intelligent and graceful. Everything a young man would desire, but her years traveling with a demon had sullied her reputation beyond repair.
"That bastard..." Inuyasha muttered. He ground his teeth together. From the strength of the scent he knew Sesshomaru had left just before dawn. Closing in on the hut he heard the faint sound of heavy breathing. His ears twitched in surprise. The young woman's morning routine required her to be watering her herbs and vegetables. It was unlike her to change any habits.
"Urgh..." He grimaced as his brother's scent irritated his sensitive nose. He quietly walked up to the hut's entrance that was feebly covered by a rug. Inhaling he tried to focus on the bittersweet scents coming from her garden. Peering over the poorly hung door he was greeted with a nearly erotic sight. Rin was sleeping on her belly. A thin cover barely covering her rear. Blushing he quickly averted his eyes, his body frozen in shock.
Breathing in again he detected the most obscene smell ever to defile his nose. The faint salty musk of his brother's cum. Horribly repulsed Inyasha backed away quickly. Retreating, his face reddened in anger.
"How dare he!" Hurt and anger thickened his voice. Stopping dead in his tacks his fists clenched, his claws piercing his skin. His mind swirled in cacophony. All the resentment his brother had for his human blood, all the hate his brother had shown him...
"He can't toy with her like this." He growled. His heart clenched when he thought of the 19 year old young woman. No human man would have her now. Inuyasha couldn't fathom his brother laying with a human woman let alone devoting his life to one. Inuyasha glanced at the sky. A desire to track his brother down ravished him. Shaking his head, he looked back towards Rin's humble hut.
"No, I'll do a better job looking after you." He whispered the promise. Inuyasha resolved to intercept his brother on his next visit. Until then he would have his wife console Rin. Ensure Rin knew that laying with his brother would bring no happiness.
