Demons Curse
Kagome was straddling and she kissed him, slowly twisting her hands in his hair, gently reaching up to trace her fingers along his sensitive ears. His body reacted to her touch and he pulled her smooth body even closer to his, nuzzling her neck as he nibbled at her. Kagome broke the kiss only long enough to whisper his name in anticipation; Inuyasha's demon began to stir within him. Inuyasha was struggling to keep the demon blood from taking control of his body. He could feel the nearly unbearable need to claim her as his mate. Kagome's scent changed as her need for him trickled off her body like a wave of heat, Inuyasha fangs extended, and the desire to mark her soft skin clawed its way through his body, his claws grew longer and he could feel the demon sliding beneath his skin. His hands traced down her naked sides, and she shifted her position in response, she broke the kiss so she could look into his eyes, eyes that had turned red.
She gasped and a small wisp of fear rolled off her skin but it only excited his demon even further. She unintentionally pulled away very slightly, but that small movement made the demon howl and rise to the surface within him. Inuyasha tightened his grip on her and quickly buried his fangs into the crook of her neck before she could move further away. Her blood was coppery on his tongue and he lapped at her neck for a moment before he regained control of his demon enough to remove his fangs from her. Inuyasha pulled back as if in a daze as he slowly realized what had just happened, he glanced at the mark he had made and an icy lump of fear began to rise in his chest. He had marked her as his mate; the demon within him had finally driven him to claim her. Kagome absently touched the new, rapidly fading, mark on her neck. He watched her touch the mark and looked at her fingertips, now lightly coated in her blood. While watching her, a thought occurred; she belonged to him and him to her. This thought calmed his fears and made it possible for him to feel something else, excitement, it bubbled is way up through his body and he couldn't help but smile as he held Kagome in his arms.
"What did you do?" her voice was quiet "I feel a bit strange Inuyasha."
"I think I just claimed you as my mate" he whispered, his now golden eyes met her hazel ones. Her brow wrinkled in confusion for a moment and she closed her eyes while she thought.
"What does that mean?" she spoke softly, she knew what it meant but wanted to hear it from him. He smiled enough to show fang but before Inuyasha could answer, the air between them pulsed violently and the mark on her neck faded until it was invisible on her milky skin. They stared at each other for a moment in stunned silence, neither knowing what was about to happen. The air pulsed once again and Inuyasha's demon blood rose in response.
"Mine" he growled at her as his eyes bled red. That one word sparked the same need in Kagome as it did in him. He leaned towards her and began slowly kissing the skin where the mark had vanished; he could still feel his mark under her skin, inside her body. There was no mistaking it, she was his mate and any demon with enough power would be able to sense his mark and would know that she belonged to him. He gradually nibbled along her neck and up to her ear. Kagome's scent washed over him with a hunger just as powerful as his own. She moaned his name and began to rub her body along his. Inuyasha closed his eyes and breathed in the scent of her arousal. He growled possessively with desire, grabbed her firmly to his chest and swiftly switched their positions so that he was on top. Kagome let out a squeak of surprise before he captured her mouth with his own. He had been holding himself back for far too long, and now he was going to make up for it….
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoO
"Kagome" Inuyasha's golden eyes flashed open and he flailed as he felt himself falling backwards. His arm struck out trying to grasp a branch but he was too slow, with a solid 'whump' Inuyasha landed at the base of the tree, a few leaves softly drifted down to land beside him.
"Oww" He whined, as he righted himself, looking around to check if anyone had witnessed his graceful descent. Embarrassed with his own clumsiness he was surprised when he suddenly caught Kagome's scent on the air. He savoured the sweet familiarity of it, rolling it on his tongue as the memory of the dream he had just rudely wakened from rushed back to him and he blushed.
He had been having dreams of this nature for two months now. His body aching with his need every time he would wake, this time was no exception. Inuyasha leaned his back against the tree and sighed, closing his eyes against the evening sunlight filtering through the forest canopy.
It was just a dream. He shook himself mentaly trying to forget the feel of her body against his, her scent, so vivid in his dream, seemed to cling to his thoughts. Inuyasha clenched his fists as he cursed his demon half for his need to claim a mate. He had reached his maturity and as far as his demon blood was concerned he was ready.
Why does this have to begin now? His thoughts became dark, Naraku is still out there and although we continue to search for the few remaining jewel shards, we haven't been able to find any for almost two years! Inuyasha brooded, his body still raging with his unfulfilled need which made him irritable. His thoughts wound their way back to Kagome, and his ears flicked in annoyance when his inner voice began taunting him again. Why don't you? The voice said and the image of him sinking his fangs into her flashed into his mind. She wants you to claim, you know she wants to be with you. Why not take her as you mate? Inuyasha could feel himself loosing control of the demon within as images of Kagome beneath him, touching him, laughing as he tickled her bare body with his hair, roared back into his mind.
"PISS OFF! I didn't ask you!" He barked at his inner voice in anger.
"WELL FINE THEN! I only came to see if you were hungry!" Kagome screamed at him from only a few feet behind. Inuyasha was so startled he leapt to his feet and turned towards her just in time to recieve a cup of steaming ramen in his face.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoO
Sputtering and cursing, his anger and embarassment flared, he looked back to where she was standing only a moment ago to discover that she had disappeared. A few Ramen noodles slipped their way into his clothing traveled down his chest. He cursed as he attempted to grasp the slippery noodles and pull them off himself. Inuyasha's attention caught a picnic basket full of prepared food scattered on the ground, where Kagome must have thrown them. Inuyasha's fury was quickly replaced with shame while he stood, alone beside the tree, looking down at all the things Kagome had made for him.
"Dammit!" he cursed himself again. He knew that she had misunderstood him but did not know how to appologise and explain his behavior. He was hard on her, especially since Sango, Miroku, Shippo and Kirara had all headed out to investigate another rumor of the shard. He had been injured in his last fight and the wound in his chest still needed to heal, so he had been left behind with Kagome untill he was well enough to join them. He would have been looking forward to it except that his demon blood reacted to her with such violence that he felt as if he couldn't control it anymore. He began to avoid her, knowing that it did not seem to help him at all. Her scent made his whole body ache for her, and he couldn't help but want to be close to her. He knew she would stay with him for as long as she could, and he felt the same for her. He wanted to be with Kagome, not Kiyko, never Kiyko. He felt guilt for Kiyko but no longer did he love her as he once did.
Kagome was the only woman that loved him just the way he was, and that feeling she had for him had made it possible for him to accept who he was. Only Kagome could love him even when he did things like this to her. He sighed to himself, finally deciding to try and explain to Kagome why he was acting this way. He followed her trail by her sweet scent, it lingered in the air like perfume but it still had a hint of anger woven within. Inuyasha smiled it was always sweeter when she was angry, maybe that was why he couldn't help but think of his dream again while he walked through their empty camp and down to a nearby river where she must have decided to vent her anger. Inuyasha would have to approach with caution because in the two years while looking for the last remaining shards Kagome had become very powerful, both as a Miko and as a woman. Inuyasha smiled enough to show fang as he stealthily manouvered his way towards where he could hear Kagome splashing in the water and cursing his name. He suddenly had the idea to sneak up to her and pounce on her as Shippo had begun doing. Kagome seemed to enjoy it when he surprised her like that and it was a lot of fun. Perhaps if he could just have her smile and laugh at him, he would have the courage to ask her to be his mate without his demon blood taking over.
