Inuyasha crossover Kuroshitsuji
Chapter 2: Here To Stay
"Someone seem to have been searching about you," Claude told her as he emerges from the shadow, very much like what Sebastian would do, but this did not startle Kagome.
"So I heard," she replied uninterestedly.
"Don't worry my songbird, they will not be a bother, you will not even notice them at all," Claude muses as he bent over and scooped her up into his arms.
"Now my Beloved, it is time for you to sleep,"
"I'm no longer a child Claude, I can judge for myself whatever time I want to sleep," Kagome scolded him with a cold glance of her eyes in his direction as she continued to read her book in the dim moonlight.
"I'm sorry for disturbing then, why not I make you some hot drink to go with that book of yours," he asked her in returned fondly as he set her back down on the recliner sofa again, making sure his action did not affect her reading.
Without so much of an acknowledgement from Kagome of his suggestion, Claude immediately went towards the kitchen as he prepared some light finger food and a warm drink that he was sure to suit her taste.
Kagome closed her book briefly as she looked up through the glass window of her study come library, her finger clasped between the pages of where she had last read as she leaned her head against the sofa thinking back about the past on nights like these. Those time in the Sengoku Jidai, they are all rather blurry as is some of her memories due to the many centuries that passed and the little things that she has to remember them all by except for the scar that is on her sides.
"I've some light food to go with your drink," Claude announced as he walked in with a golden tray with a pot of tea, two cups and a plateful of goodies that he had made especially for her.
"Something on your mind?" he asked whilst setting the things down on the table as he unloaded them off the tray.
"Don't you have a Prince to take care of," Kagome threw that question back at him as she turned her attention back to her book, opening it as she continued reading from where she had left off.
"Are you jealous?" he asked with a good-natured smile upon his lips as he knelt before of her, taking a hold of her hand as he looked up at her face.
"Do I look like I am jealous to you," she asked nonchalantly, not even bothering to give him a glance.
"Don't worry, you are always my top priority," he promised her in a soft comforting tone as he placed a kiss upon her hand, flipping it gently in his hand and placing a mildly longer lingering kiss upon where her pulse is as his eyes glowed a fuschia-red shade.
"The contract will come to an end soon," he told her, setting the try aside, as he poured her a hot cup of tea, not at all listening to her question.
"Come, taste this, I've recently created this new taste for you," he told her, setting the cup of hot tea before her as the smoke rises from the heat of it.
Kagome looked at the tea for a moment once she got a whiff of it before looking at him, a look of amusement crossing her eyes as she studied him for a moment before reaching out to take the cup of tea as she blew at it before placing the cup to her lips and taking a tiny sip that seemed almost non-existent.
"Very unique," she commented after a moment before setting it down again as her eyes roamed to the plate of goodies and her eyes shone in delight.
Seeing her reaction, Claude smiled at her reaction as he took a piece of it intending to put it on the plate, but after a second thought, he brought it up to her lips, fully intending to feed her.
"I learnt how to make this especially for you," he told her in a gentle tone, watching as she parted her pink lips to take a bite of the cake without hesitation.
With a look of bliss, Claude looked on engrossed and captivated by her expression that she wears so openly on her face despite of the years that they have been together.
Since that day that they had left the demon world, they have both been staying here, and Claude had even brought along the female maids that he had 'brought' to her back then to serve her along with them, and had her settled in the best place that he could find with all that are to her taste. And Kagome had been peacefully, and happily staying there, and he did not care for anything else, seeing that he will get rid of anyone or thing that would displease her.
These days Kagome had been going out, seeing the every sight, and how the people live each day, from the shops, to eateries, to the gambling den and the watering holes. Though she has never stepped into some of those other establishment, but she more or less got the full idea of things here.
Day and in out just sitting at home or be it going out shopping, it all gets dull pretty fast, and in the end she went out searching for something to fill that time and boredom in her.
"You've caught quite the eyes of a few people," Claude says one of the nights when he visit her, seeing her all tucked up cozy in bed and sleeping soundly.
Kagome did not stir or move, her even shallow and breathing evenly as she slept on with no sign of waking up or being bothered.
"I'll keep you safe from them no matter the price," Claude promised her softly, brushing stray strands of hair away from her face as he leaned over her peacefully sleeping face to place a kiss on her forehead, nose tip and lips.
Kagome frowned as she stirred, turning a little, scrunching her eyes, she drowsily opened it as she peeked through sleepy eyes to see Claude smiling softly at her as he placed another peek on her lips.
"Go back to sleep, I'm sorry for waking you up," he told her softly, nuzzling her neck gently as he tuck her in, laying by her side in bed as he watch her closed her eyes to go back to sleep, but not before she turned her back to him.
Claude quietly laughed at her behavior, instead, he slipped himself under her blanket as he reaching out with his arms to wrap her in them as he drew her closer towards him. Kagome twisted her body, squirming until she found a comfortable position because of Claude, and settled down again not too long after.
By the time the morning sun rises, Claude was no longer by Kagome side as she woke up with more space, the lack of a certain someone's body warmth.
"Marie, prepare the carriage, we're going out for brunch," Kagome said after looking out of the window to see the weather outside.
Every morning without fail, Marie will enter her room to open the window so that they could let in more of the sun and the fresh morning air, something that Kagome likes waking up to everyday.
"Everything will be prepared immediately Lady Kagome," the young girl says as she went out of the room immediately to bring in her tray of breakfast, before doing as what Kagome has ordered.
"Send word little bird, for them to begin work," Kagome says as a common everyday not bird that one would not bother giving even a second glass flew to stand by her window sill, chirping in a tune as it tilted its' head to look at Kagome before taking a hop forward, and then taking off into the air.
"The horsemen has been notified Lady Kagome," Marie came in to let Kagome know as she went towards her bedside, and picked up the pot of tea as she poured out another for Kagome, missing the sight of Kagome talking to the bird earlier.
"Lord Claude has specially prepared this tea for you, and said that if you were to be wanting more, he could have more sent over immediately," Marie informed her, but Kagome did not bother so much as to acknowledge it, knowing that Claude would just bring her more whenever they should run low of supply.
"Marie, do you want to be free?" Kagome asked her out of the blue as she looked at the younger girl.
Her face blanked with surprise in her eyes, but it flashed passed as Kagome watches her closely.
"I can grant you back your freedom," Kagome told the young girl, taking her silence as a form of acknowledgement.
"I will not dream of ever leaving you Lady Kagome, so allow me to stay by your side and serve you," the girl says as she bowed her down to her.
Kagome nodded her head at her words, and continued her breakfast as she picked up the newspaper, reading it as she scanned the news on it. There are quite a few things that she is looking out for, but out of the many things, she can't split herself to do it all at the same time.
"Get someone to prepare me a warm bath," she said as she dusted her hand free of the crumbs of toast over the plate before she
"Right away Lady Kagome," Marie says, disappearing out of her room as Kagome took more sips of her tea, looking out of the window as she daydreamed.
