He pounded ruthlessly into her. He'd seen her hug that male, and as he recalled that event it only served for him to pound into her harder. "Mine!" he growled out as his body tightened his thrusts growing even faster.

"Yours?" She questioned, moaning out her pleasure, even as he harshly thrust into her waiting warmth. Her eyes shining as she breathily asked. "You love me?"

For some unknown reason he felt his anger flare, her body convulsed around him as he roared. "I could never love you." He didn't feel the stiffening of her body as he climaxed, tiredly collapsing against her chest. With a sudden jolt he realized his harsh words. "Kagome, I-"

"Shhh." She murmured, her hands tentatively trailing through his hair. "I understand." But from the sadness emitting from her pores she didn't. "I can never live up to Kikyo. But the fact that you let me in your presence is enough."

Tears coursed down his face at her words, his heart clenching, his tongue felt swollen as he'd opened his mouth to tell her she was wrong, but all that came out was a choked sob. "Just pretend I am her." She whispered brokenly. "Pretend I am someone worth loving."

Unbidden the tears coursed down his cheeks the words would still not escape his throat so he settled for tightening his arms around her, hoping to convey his love for her through his protective embrace, his heart breaking along with hers.
