Sesshomaru's Obsession
Sesshomaru has been carefully planning this moment for some time now. The moment he would make Kagome his.
AN: First post here to and every bit of constructive criticism is welcome! Thank you!
It had been two years since she had been pulled down the bone eaters well. Kagome finally felt as though she was hitting her stride with her quest. No longer was she some helpless little girl from the future with no survival skills. She could hold her own in battle rather than get in the way as she had in the beginning. Her skills with the bow paralleled Kikyo's and her control of her miko powers had surpassed her. Unfortunately with her utility in battle grew her confidence. Confidence in her ability to sense danger long before it reached her, confidence in her ability to conquer any who should dare attack her, confidence that led her to her current situation.
She stood alone outside the well, it was just shy of midnight under the new moon. Inuyasha would be human and wouldn't come rushing out to meet her the second the wind shifted to carry her scent to him. She carried on her back her yellow pack stuffed to bursting with various supplies, her long black freshly washed hair fluttered in the breeze as she lazily stretched, releasing muscles tightened from her climb to the surface.
She should have known better than to be out alone at night so near to the bone eaters well. Its dark power had a tendency to draw lesser demons into the vicinity. Kagome had little to fear from most. She had blossomed at Inuyasha's side into a somewhat formidable warrior but there was always some one out there stronger. For her, tonight, that was him.
Sesshomaru stood perfectly still just beyond tree line carefully suppressing his aura to avoid detection. He had been monitoring her progress for quiet some time now. She had progressed from a curious burden to a graceful asset to his brother. A beautiful asset.
Sesshomaru supposed it was petty but he was never one to allow anyone, much less his bastard brother, to get one up on him. He did not come close to deserving a woman like her. Kagome would be his. His desire to have her at his side was purely selfish, but it did not change the fact that his plans for her would be for her own good. Inuyasha did not have the inclination or the ability to care for her the way that he could. He would treat her as a lady. The lady of the west. All she had to do was take a few more steps away from the well, her only escape rout.
Three more steps and she wouldn't be able to reach it before he could immobilize her. He had a cave set into a sheer cliff face prepared to contain her comfortably for several weeks. She would have have to rely on him completely for access to water, food and companionship. It was this dependency that was key in his plan. He would make her need him, and show her just how well suited he was to the roll of the provider and mate. Kagome was a forgiving woman and would get over the shock of her abduction relatively quickly. She had forgiven the wolf prince, had she not?
Two more. She would be going into heat soon. Sesshomaru remembered the first time he had smelled her delicious pheromones. He had been tailing his brothers group from a mile away just over a year ago. His interest in Kagome at that point was one of pure curiosity. She didn't belong here, that was apparent from the first time he lade eyes on her, but when he found out where, or more specifically when she was from the girls fate was sealed. To know the future would be an unimaginable advantage in battle and politics. He had every intention capturing her and extracting every bit of useful information from her before killing her, that is until the wind shifted. In an instant he was barley able to restrain him self as her indescribable smell floated around him. He felt as if he had been dunked in hot oil. If his inner beast had any say in the matter he would have ran to her and killed every one of her companions and made her his among the corpses. It was in this moment that his obsession with the young time traveler was born. How could anyone smell so amazing? This time he would have no reason to hold himself back. She would be all alone, in his care. By the end of the month his new bride would be carrying his pup.
One more step. He would help her complete her mission with far more finesse than his moronic brother and when she accepted her new life at his side he would reunite her with her surrogate child, the fox kit. Rin would be over joyed to have a mother figure in her life and soon enough the fox it and his heir would join his pack. He couldn't help but think his father would have approved of the motley crew that would be his family. The thought did not please him, but did little to stop him. Kagome was already his, she just didn't know it yet.
There. His muscles tensed imperceptibly for a fraction of a second before launching him self towards the unsuspecting miko faster than the human eye could see.
