Possession

Prolouge

The sun's light was fading from the sky, casting a lovely orange glow on the lake. Kurama and I sat on a large blanket on the bank of the lake, watching the sunset in companionable silence. I was sitting in his lap with his arms around me. I rested my head against Kurama's broad chest, relishing the feel of being held by the one I loved. I was enjoying the time we were spending alone. I cherished the moment, for it wasn't often we could be alone like this.

The day had been wonderful so far. After we had eaten the delicious picnic lunch that Kurama had made for us, a heavy make out session began. Before we let our desire burn too hot, we sparred for a while to cool our passion, which in turn lead to another make out session we had just ended to watch the sunset.

"So, now are you going to tell me about this honeymoon, you mentioned earlier?" I asked, breaking the silence. Kurama smiled. "It's another human tradition that takes place after a wedding," he began. "The newly wed couple usually travel to someplace of their choosing where they celebrate their union, and consummate their wedding vows," I repositioned myself so I could look at him. "So, basically traveling somewhere to be alone, have sex, and spoil ourselves rotten," I commented. Kurama nodded, the sparkle in his eyes told me he was amused but holding back his laughter. "Sounds good to me," I said. Kurama smiled and nuzzled me affectionately. "There are so many places I can show you," He murmured softly in my ear.

He gently kissed my lips. "…so many places I want to take you," He whispered. "Would you like that Love?" "We can travel all over the Makai as it suits us, go wherever we please," he murmured. "do whatever we please," "I'd like that," I replied, loving the seductive tone in his voice. "So, where shall we go first?" he asked. "…there's the gorgeous forests in the north, or the grand cities in the east…" he suggested "…and there are beaches in the west with the clearest water you've ever seen, … you'd love the sunsets… they're always so beautiful there,"

"Sounds to me like you really want to visit those beaches," I commented. "I do," he responded. "I want to sit with my arms around you while we watch the sunset, and make love to you under the light of the moon," I shuddered at the strong mental images his words conjured. The fox gently caressing me as our bodies moved to the rhythm of the eternal dance of nature…his long hair flowing wild and untamed…his eyes upon me, filled with love and lust … "Yes, let's definitely do that," I said.

Kurama smiled and lovingly kissed my lips. "I intend to show you many places Love," he whispered. "…and we'll stay at each one as long as you like, after all we've no need to hurry," His radiant smile graced his handsome face. "I'm sure you'll enjoy this trip," he said. "I've dreamed of doing this for so long, traveling around the Makai with my beloved,"

The sun was nearly set now, and it wouldn't be long before twilight ended and night would settle over the land. "We should get going," Kurama sighed. I frowned. I wasn't ready to go back to the human world just yet. It seemed too soon. "Must we go already?" I asked. "Let's stay a little longer," I leaned up and gently caressed his lips with mine. He responded in kind and I captured his lips in a searing kiss, trying my best to put my love and desire into it. He moaned softly and we pulled away from air.

I slipped my hand into his thin white tunic, sensually caressing his chest. He moaned softly and I placed teasing kisses upon his neck. "Hiei," he breathed. "Hmmm?" I murmured as I trailed kisses down his neck. He gasped as I nipped at his throat. "Please Hiei, don't…" he pleaded. I pulled back and looked into his eyes. "Why not?" I asked. "Don't you desire me?" "You know I do," he answered. I gently caressed his cheek. "Don't you want to make love?" I asked.

Though we had reached the point in our relationship where we pleasured each other, we hadn't yet engaged in true intercourse. Until now I hadn't been ready to take that next step, apparently Kurama wasn't yet.

Kurama kissed me gently. "Of course I want to," He murmured softly. "However, when we make love for the first time, I want it to be as your mate, nothing less," He explained. "Fine with me," I said. "You only want to make our first time together as special as possible, am I right?" I inquired. Kurama smiled softly. "That is my primary reason, yes" he agreed.

I raised my eyebrow at that. "What other reason might there be?" I asked. Kurama sighed. "You've heard the stories about my kind, how some can steal the life energy from others?" he inquired. I nodded. "Are you trying to tell me that you can do this?" I responded. "Yes," Kurama said softly. "If you were to take me, I would drain your life. It's something that I have no control over, and thankfully it's only happened once," he continued. "I know I should have told you this before I asked you to be my mate, and I will understand if you change your mind,"

"If I never get to mount you then so be it," I responded. Kurama looked a bit surprised but relieved. "You have taken the time and patience to get to know me, you've actually courted me instead of treating me like a casual lover, you've taught me what I know about the pleasures of the flesh, and have been nothing but patient in doing so, and now you've granted me the honor of being at your side as your mate," I began. "If submitting to you in this way is the price I must pay for all that you have given me, then it is a small one, and one I am willing to pay,"

He held me closer to him. Relief was evident in the expression on his face. "You don't know how glad it makes me to hear you say that," he said softly. "You know, Koemna has a rather large library. I'm sure I could find something that might be of help." He added thoughtfully "He owes us that much at least, after all we've done for him," I agreed. "I'll pay him a visit later tonight," Kurama resolved.

After a few moments of silence, he released me from his embrace. "We really should get going Darkfire," he said softly. I could tell he really didn't want to go either, but we couldn't leave our lives in the human world just yet. It was still too soon.

I got to my feet allowing my fiancé to get to his. Together we packed up our picnic supplies and headed back to the human world. We passed through the portal, emerging into a park unseen. We dumped the trash and packed the rest onto my black motorcycle. I passed him his helmet, and he quickly slipped it on and secured it place. I climbed on and fastened my own shiny black helmet on. I felt him climb on behind me and wrap his arms around my waist as he pressed his body close to mine. I heard his telepathic whoop of joy as the engine roared to life. "Inari, I love this thing," he cried telepathically as we sped off toward home. I couldn't help but smirk, knowing that when we arrived home I was in store for more than just another heavy make out session.

As we pulled into the garage a short while later, I did not sense Yusuke or Kuwabara's spirit energy, so I suspected that they were not yet home. Good, more alone time for me and the Fox. We put away our helmets and headed into the house. I went strait for the shower. After the long sparring session we'd had I was in need of one.

I turned on the water, then stripped tossing my dirty clothes in the hamper. After testing the temperature of the water, I stepped under the warm spray and closed my eyes. As I soaked my hair, I felt Kurama's energy nearing. I figured it was only a matter of time before the fox joined me. Within moments, I heard him enter the bathroom, and shortly after he slipped into the shower with me. He leaned close and teasingly nibbled on my ear. "I hope you don't mind my joining you love," he murmured seductively. "You know I don't," I replied as we maneuvered so that he could stand under the water. Even then he continued to plant arousing kisses upon my cheek and neck.

"Why is it riding with me always gets you so excited?" I murmured as we switched places. "Perhaps I just love the feeling of your body pressed so close to mine," he responded sensually. "We don't need the bike for that," I said. "No, but I do enjoy it," he replied. "Do you think we can find something like it in the Makai?" he asked as he reached for the shampoo. "Perhaps," I answered as he began to wash my hair.

I leaned into his touch. Though I would never openly admit it., loved it when he washed my hair. No one had ever done so for me before. I enjoyed the feel of his hands massaging my scalp as he worked the shampoo into a rich lather, and the way he'd scratch my head gently with his nails. It felt like heaven. Kurama was spoiling me and I doubted he even knew it.

Once he had thoroughly lathered my hair we switched places so that he could rinse the shampoo from his hair. I grabbed the shampoo bottle and returned the favor, working a good amount of it into my fiancé's long, lush, red hair. We switched places once again so that he could wash his hair. With our hair now clean we turned our attention to cleaning our bodies.

Kurama squeezed some shower gel rubbed them together, creating a thick lather. He placed his hands upon my chest and gently began to wash me. I closed my eyes and leaned into his touch, enjoying the feel of his hands upon my body as he washed me. When he was done with the front he turned us so that I could be rinsed while he began work on my back, massaging the muscles of my neck and back as he washed me. Once he was through washing me I returned the favor, washing him with my hands as he had me.

He knelt so that I could reach his back. Soft pleasured moans escaped his lips as I massaged his neck, back and shoulders. I smiled, knowing I was bringing him pleasure. The next thing I knew, he turned toward me and began showering me with kisses and teasing caresses that leaved me weak kneed and wanting more.

"Why don't we continue this in the bedroom?" he suggested. I murmured my agreement and Kurama reached behind him to shut off the water. He got to his feet but leaned close to capture my lips in a fiery kiss. I responded in kind and we got out of the shower in a torrent of passionate kisses. I dried us using my energy as we made our way to the door. Suddenly, my fiancé scooped me up in his arms. He quickly moved from the bathroom to the bed and gently laid me down upon it. He caressed my thighs, slowly, teasingly and I knew it wouldn't be long before he had me screaming his name in pleasure.

I scooted back on the bed. Kurama growled playfully and followed on all fours. I stifled my laugh. It surprised even me sometimes at how playful my fox could be. I locked my eyes with his and nearly shivered at his hungry gaze. He gave me a wink, then dipped his head, quickly capturing the heated flesh between my legs in his mouth. He used his wicked lips and talented tongue to slowly bring me into a pleasure induced haze. He was using every trick and tactic he knew to bring me to the brink of ecstasy and lovingly shove me over the edge. However, I wanted to pleasure him as well. I tugged at his sidelocks, quickly getting his attention. "Let me please you," I murmured softly.

He slowly released me from his sweet torture, giving the swollen flesh a soft kiss upon the tip, drawing another soft moan from my lips. I then pounced on him, toppling him onto his back. Slowly, I planted soft kisses down his cheek and jaw. I nipped at his throat as I trailed kisses down his neck. I continued down his chest, stopping to take his right nipple in my mouth. I sucked gently, using my lips and tongue to tease the sensitive flesh until it was a hardened nub, the repeated the process on its twin, earning moans of pleasure from my soon to be mate. I continued my arousing kisses and caresses down his belly but Kurama stopped me before I could come close to my goal. The look gave me beckoned me to him. I returned to his lips and captured them in a hungry, fiery kiss. He moaned softly into the kiss and responded with a passionate kiss that made my blood boil.

When we broke the kiss I realized that we had reversed our positions. "I think we're both too far gone to wait our turn to be pleasured, don't you agree?" he murmured seductively. He flashed me a mischievous smile then turned around, giving me a great view of his curvatious behind. The more impressive view of his manhood was presented to me a moment later and I immediately took advantage of my position. In no time it became a challenge of sorts as we each used every trick we knew to bring each other to the peak of pleasure until we both reached it and plummeted over the edge together.

We released each other at last and Kurama held me close to him. As I leaned into his warm embrace, I couldn't help but wonder if things would change once I officially became his mate. After all, marriage in the Makai usually consisted of one dominant one of the pair. Since Kurama had proposed to me and could not be taken by me until his life absorbing ability could be dealt with, I couldn't help but wonder if that made him the dominant one of our relationship.

"What's wrong Love?" he asked softly. "are you not satisfied?" I turned my head to look at him. "I don't really see how that could be possible," I responded. Kurama chuckled. "Then what troubles you?" he asked. "I was just thinking, wondering actually, if things would change between us once we're married," I answered. "You know as well as I do what marriage in the Makai is like," "Hiei, both of us are too proud and stubborn to allow the other to truly dominate the other. Like everything else we've endeavored on we will be partners in our marriage. I would not have it any other way," he responded.

I felt familiar spirit energy approaching the house. Kurama sighed. "We should get dressed," I murmured. "Shall we tell them right away?" Kurama asked, brushing his fingers over my ring. "Why not?" I responded. "I can't wait to see the look on the oaf's face," Kurama chuckled and released me from his embrace. "I'm sure it will be even more priceless then when Yusuke announced he'd proposed to Keiko and she accepted," he said. I laughed, knowing he was right.

He climbed out of bed and padded toward the bathroom. He turned to look over his shoulder. "I'm going to take another shower, care to join me?" he asked. "Next time Fox," I answered. "I have the feeling it would last several hours if you got your way," Kurama smirked. "You know we me too well Darkfire," he chuckled. He headed into the bathroom and I closed my eyes and listened to the water in the shower run. When it stopped a short while later I realized that I had fallen asleep. I stretched and climbed out of bed.

As I chose my clothes from the dresser Kurama emerged from the bathroom toweling his hair dry. I rose an eyebrow at the fact he wasn't even wearing a towel. He just smiled and continued drying his hair. I wasn't going to say anything, after all it was a nice view in my opinion. I headed into the bathroom and took my shower. By the time I was through, it was evident Yusuke and Kuwabara were home. Kurama stood at the full length mirror, combing out his long red hair. He wore no shirt, just a simple pair of jeans. I chose an outfit from the closet and dressed with my back to him. I knew he was watching me out of the corner out of his eye, if only for a moment. Not that I minded. I'd done the same on many occasions.

"Hiei, would you hand me a shirt?" he requested. I grabbed one I knew was one of his favorites and approached him from behind. I put my arms around his waist. I don't know why you want it, you look good without one" I murmured. I could see the blush spreading across his cheeks in his reflection in the mirror. He took the shirt from my hand with a soft thanks. I planted a soft kiss on his back, then released him from my embrace and headed for the door. I couldn't help but smirk as I headed downstairs. I loved it when I got the fox all flustered.

Yusuke and Kuwabara were in the living room playing a game on one of their game machines. Apparently the detective was on a winning streak, because a moment later Kuwabara set his controller aside, a look of fury upon his face. "You should know better than to play against the detective in a fighting game," I commented and entered the room, noting they were playing Soul Calibur 2 again. Kuwabara scowled as both he and Yusuke looked up, noticing me for the first time. "Hey Hiei, where's fox boy?" Yusuke greeted. "Upstairs, getting dressed," I answered. "Actually, I'm right behind you," came kurama's soft voice from behind me as he slid his arms around my waist.

Yusuke grinned wolfishly as Kurama nuzzled my neck affectionately. "Looks like you two had a good day out," he commented. Kurama smiled. "Yes, very good," Kurama responded as he took my hand and gently raised it so that they could see my engagement ring. Their eyes got wide. "Woah, is that an engagement ring?" Yusuke cried in surprise. "Yes, detective it is," I replied. Kuwabara's eyes got wider then I thought possible.

For a moment there was only stunned silence. Yusuke recovered first. "I guess this means you'll be going back to the Makai," he said softly. "Once we are married, we will go back to the Makai," I responded. "we still have yet to decide upon a date for the ceremony, so we will be sticking around for a while at least," Kurama assured them. "We will wait until our contract is up," he added, looking to me for conformation. I gave a slight nod of agreement. It would give Kurama time to find a solution to his dilemma and also to prepare for our departure from the human world.

Kurama smiled charmingly. "Besides, what kind of friends would we be if we missed your wedding Yusuke?" he teased. Yusuke smiled. "congratulations guys," he said. "you'll keep in touch when you're gone, right?" Kuwabara asked. "Of course," Kurama replied. "This calls for a celebration," Yusuke declared. "I know a place that serves great food, and we won't be bothered by a mob of screaming fans. What do you say?" Kurama looked to me as though asking if I wanted to and I nodded.

As soon as we arrived at the restaurant, we were seated immediately by the hostess in a private room. Kurama raised an eyebrow as he looked over the menu. "They certainly have quite a selection. There are foods from all over the world on the menu," he said. Yusuke smiled. "Keiko was pretty impressed too when I brought her here," he said. I looked over the menu unsure of which of the many items offered I wanted. Just as soon as I decided, a pretty young waitress came to take our order. Unsurprisingly, she looked to Kurama first.

My fiancé smiled charmingly at her and gave his order, then looked to me. I gave her my order, and handed over the menu. Yusuke and Kuwabara followed suit. The waitress double checked the order then assured us she would return with our drinks, and left us to ourselves.

"She was cute," Yusuke commented. "Yes, she was rather easy on the eyes," Kurama agreed. Yusuke looked at him in surprise. "I didn't think she was your type," he commented, glancing at me. Kurama laughed softly. "actually, I don't really have a preference, if that's what you wish to know," he informed the detective. "I seem to have developed a fondness for raven hair though," he added as he gently caressed my leg under the table.

I gave my fiancé a curious glance. "I think Yusuke was subtly asking me if I was gay," he explained telepathically. "I got that," I replied. "I was just wondering how you could possibly be interested in that waitress," "I'm not," he assured me. "I do think she's attractive, but it takes more than a pretty face and a nice figure to truly captured my attention as you have my dark angel," he purred mentally. Against all odds I managed not to blush, but the look in his eyes made me shiver.

As we ate dinner that night, celebrating the unions to be, it felt odd knowing our days in the human world were numbered. Our days as a foursome even more so. Yusuke would be married in the coming year and would be moving out to live with Keiko in a home of their own. It would only be a matter of time after that before Kurama and I wed and returned to the Makai. Despite, the bittersweet feeling it would bring, I looked forward the day when I became Kurama's mate and we left the human world behind.

"You seem rather introspective tonight," Kurama observed as I dressed for bed that night. "I was just thinking," I responded. "I still have no idea what I'll be doing once we get back to the Makai. I really don't think I want to go back to being Mukuro's heir," "Then don't," Kurama said softly. "We can live quite comfortably on the wealth I've accumulated over the years. We can do as we wish, "He added. I nodded in agreement. "I suppose if we're going to take anything with us, we'd better start figuring out how we're going to get it to the Makai," I said. "Yes, and where to store it. After all we have yet to build or decide upon a home there," he agreed. "What about where you took me today?" I suggested. "No one would bother anything there," he agreed. "I'll start making room after I see Koemna," he said. He gave me a quick kiss. "Good night Love. I won't be too long, I hope" he said. "Night Fox," I responded and returned the kiss.

I fell into an uneasy sleep and awakened instantly the moment my fiancé entered the bedroom. I turned, facing him. "Did I wake you?" he asked as he quietly shut the door behind himself. "I was only half asleep," I assured him. "How did things go with Koemna" I asked. "Quite well," he answered as he changed for bed. "He's allowing us to use his library as much as we like," "Good. I take it he didn't need much convincing then," I commented. Kurama shook his head and climbed into bed. He wrapped his arms around me. "Do you think you will find what you're looking for there?" I asked. "I hope so," Kurama said softly.

Author's Note: I am extremely sorry for making you guys wait so long for this new story. I said two weeks and It's been over a month at least. I was late posting this story because I had a lot of "technical difficulties" getting this story ready for posting. I hope you all enjoy this new tale and there will be an update next week as usual.
