DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN!
The one who he couldn't ditch.
Kagome sighed, her raven black hair flittering all around her face as she stretched. The shrine was finally cleaned. She had cleaned everything, even sweeping each step till she reached the end. Her back was aching something fierce, and she tried to sooth the pain by pressing her small hands to the middle of her back.
The main reason she had begun to clean was because of her anxiety. She kept having a horrid feeling, the same type she got when someone evil was near. It was almost as if Naraku were just around the corner…
"Ah…" her sigh was soft, light. She knew that the only way to get rid of this pain was to take a nice, warm, bubble bath. Picking up the broom she had used to sweep, she slowly began to make her way up the steps.
She was already on the 10th step, when she heard a groan from the bottom of the steps.
Turning around, Kagome's azure blue eyes widened.
Staring down at the body that had fallen at the bottom of her shrine steps, the only thought that could come to mine was; 'where did he come from?'
He felt odd. Warm. Cared for.
But, why…? How?
Opening his eyes wearily, he looked around. He was in a bedroom. That much was obvious. There was a pretty scent around the bed he was lying in. Looking down at his wound, he was surprised to see it fully healed.
'…Could be the work of a fellow Wizard…' he thought.
Closing his eyes for a few seconds, Howl Jenkins began to remember the way his wounds came to be.
-Two Weeks Ago-
"Howl."
The blonde looked up, his sky blue eyes questioning.
"Sophie?"
The love of his life, his Sophie, was standing in front of him. Her chocolate brown eyes were wet with tears and her small hands were fisted tightly.
"How could you? We have a son!"
Blinking slowly, Howl stood, "Sophie, what are you talking about?"
Stepping right up to him, Sophie brought her hand up quickly. It took him several moments to realize that she was holding something in between two of her fingers. Gently pulling the item from her fingers he reached for her hand, only for it to be yanked back.
Frowning in confusion, and feeling a bit hurt, he looked at what he held in his hand. A note? No, a letter. It was folded in three different ways and when he finally unfolded it; his eyes began to read through it.
"What?" he murmured quietly to himself, his eyes widening as he read through the letter. "Sophie, this isn't--I mean, I didn't,"
"Oh, you didn't? Then why is it in your print? Who else could write like this?!" Sophie demanded.
Still staring at the letter in complete surprise, Howl never noticed Sophie's features changing. Only when he heard a low, husky chuckle, did his head snap up, only to be too late.
Sophie was smiling cruelly, the smile looking so out-of-place with her pretty features. Her usually warm, chocolate brown eyes were now cold and empty. His pained blue eyes traveled down to where her hand should have been, but instead, all he saw was a blood-coated tentacle. The blood belonging to him.
"S-Sophie?"
The cold laughter that rang out afterwards, was enough to make his heart twist painfully in his chest. Tilting to the side, his eyes lowered down to the letter in his hand before his eyes finally closed.
His last thoughts were not only about what Sophie did to him, but the letter as well.
Written, in the letter was-
My Dearest, Kagome
It has been much too long since I've last seen you. I miss your beautiful smile and those perfect eyes…goodness those eyes…
My heart thuds painfully every time I'm with Sophie, because I keep picturing her as you. You're the one I see when Sophie and I are in bed, you're the one I think about when Sophie speaks to me, and you're the one I find myself wishing to be the mother of Morgan…
I promise to meet with you again soon, and I can only hope you have waited.
Eternally yours,
Howl
-Snapping back to reality-
The damn letter was still in his pocket. He could tell that is was there.
Howl opened his eyes immediately when the door to the room was being opened. He watched, his muscles tense, as a beautiful young woman walked into the room.
"Oh, you are awake." The woman's soft voice matched her face perfectly, so sweet, so honeyed. Her eyes were the most magnificent color, azure blue and they sparkled so beautifully. She had long, silky hair that was trailing down to her back like a black river. Her body was one to be envied; she had the longest legs he had ever seen, though she was, surprisingly, petite. She looked to be even smaller than Sophie. Her breasts were the perfect size for any man, her hips excellent for child-bearing and a small, trim waist. Her lovely body was emphasized even more, seeing as all she wore was a dark blue robe. Now that he double-checked, her hair did seem to be a bit wet.
Howl frowned, "I am. Who are you?" Well, great. Now he sounded rude.
The young woman merely smiled, making her way over to the bed he was resting in. She noticed the way his muscles locked together even more than when she had entered and understood completely. She was a stranger to him, after all.
"My name is Kagome," She failed to notice the way his eyes zapped up to her own, "Your in my room, I brought you here after I found you at the bottom of the Shrine steps."
He had heard nothing after, "My name is Kagome." That name! That was the name on the letter! This witch was the reason his Sophie did this to him!
"Damned witch!"
Kagome let out a gasp when he suddenly leapt from the bed and then roughly shouldered her onto the floor, his knees resting painfully on her chest, crushing her breasts.
"Hey!-"
"Be silent!" The man ordered, his sky blue eyes gleaming in anger. His long blonde hair framed his face wildly. His smooth, slightly-tanned chest gleamed in the pale light. The wound had been on his abdomen, so she had needed to remove his shirt to treat it.
"This is the thanks I get for helping you?" she asked, incredulously.
"Yes," he hissed before bringing his hand up, "And this is the thanks you get for deceiving Sophie!"
As his hand lowered to strike her, she suddenly brought her own hand forward, gleaming a light purple color. Howl's eyes narrowed, he pulled his own hand back. It would not be wise to attack the witch without knowing her own power first.
"First of all," the 'witch' started, "I have deceived no one, and second of all, I don't even know a Sophie."
"Lying witch," he gritted out through clenched teeth. "If you do not know me or Sophie, then what is this?"
Kagome watched as his hand dove into the pocket of his pants, and retrieved a piece of paper, which he pointed at her face. From her position on the floor with his knees at her chest, though, she could not clearly read the paper.
"If you would please, let me up so I may read this paper?" she asked, her eyes beginning to shine with pain.
Howl glared down at her before reluctantly removing his knees from her chest. He watched, then, as she carefully unfolded the letter and he glared even harder when her eyes widened.
"What is this? Are you Howl?" She asked, her voice riddled with confusion. Oh, this damn witch was good. She actually looked and sounded as if she were confused.
"Your cleverness will not fool me again witch. You had this sent to Sophie as an attempt to part us, and then you took control of her body and made her do this to me!"
Kagome's mind was reeling. She had no idea who this guy was and why he would be sending her a letter like this. Also…,
"Why do you keep calling me a witch? I'm a miko. A priestess, not a witch!"
Howl snarled, "Yes, and I am an unholy demon rather than a wizard."
"Wizard?" Kagome repeated softly.
Howl's head was beginning to throb, "Yes you idiot witch. The Wizard, Howl Jenkins. The Wizard Pendragon, Sorcerer Jenkin, me a wizard."
Kagome frowned at his condescending tone before looking back at the letter, "And you didn't write this yourself?"
"Of course not! It was you, you who used some type of magic spell to copy my print letter by letter, and send this to my wife. It was you afterwards who possessed my wife's body and shot a tentacle at me."
"Tentacle!?" Kagome suddenly understood. The reason why she had been having such odd feelings of concern. The reason why the wound that Howl had looked so familiar.
"Naraku." She whispered, her eyes wide.
Howl frowned, "What?"
"You say that your wife was controlled by something, and that what stabbed you was a tentacle? This was all done by the demon Naraku. He did this very same thing…years ago…to a friend of mine. He made my friend and his loved one betray each other, by pretending to be them and attacking one another. Naraku hunted her down pretending to be my friend Inuyasha, and then she shot him with an arrow that binded him to a tree for 50 years."
Howl was staring into her eyes the whole time, the girl was sincere. He had noticed the way her eyes misted over, in a way that could only proved that she was being truthful.
"Why, then? Neither Sophie nor I have ever known of this Naraku character, why would he target us?"
"He isn't targeting you, he is targeting me." Kagome said, her eyes focused on her name on the letter.
He didn't know how it happened.
It was only a couple of months after he had met Kagome that this strange feeling began to eat at his heart.
Exactly two months after Kagome had told him all about Naraku and her battles in the past had the evil demon actually arrived.
It was horrible. His plan all along was to make Kagome feel the pain that she had already felt. This had left them confused for a while. What did he mean by that? They didn't have time to ponder it, for the demon had merely left them with those words and then disappeared all together. Naraku wanted Kagome's heart to taint, so she could become a slave to him. Kagome assured him though, that it would never happen.
But now…
"Howl?"
Looking up at her, he grinned, noticing her attention to his bare chest. "Yes, Kagome?"
"What happened to your blonde hair?" she asked, her head tilted to the side adoringly. She was biting her lip, trying not to stare at his chest.
He had removed his shirt due to the heat and only because of the heat…now he was so glad that it was that hot.
"What, you don't like?" he teased. His hair had gone from sunburst blonde, to midnight black.
Kagome smiled that gorgeous smile, "I think it's perfect."
She giggled at the blush on his cheeks, to which he stuck his tongue out at her for. Seeing this chance, Kagome raced over to him and jumped on him, grabbing his tongue in the process.
"Eyeeye!" was all Howl could manage around his caught tongue. He fell backwards, causing her to land on top of him, her fingers holding onto his tongue gently.
"Don't you ever do that to me," she said to him, a smile on her lips. Her long legs were tucked at the knees, using them to pin his arms down to his sides.
"Why not?" he asked, shivering as the taste of her fingers caused some tingling in his lower anatomy.
Kagome giggled playfully, "Cause' you're not going to use it, so why show it to me?"
Howl blinked. Had she just? Was that?
Seeing the look on Howl's face, Kagome frowned slightly, "I…I mean…" slowly removing her fingertips from his tongue, she began to ease off him.
Firm hands suddenly grasped her hips.
Kagome gasped and looked down, into the sky blue eyes of Howl. He stared right back at her, his lips a grim line. Slowly, he grabbed her finger and pulled it down towards his mouth.
Kagome watched, fascinated as he sucked languidly on her finger, his eyes closed. Her head was spinning, her thoughts in inner turmoil, no…he couldn't he had a wife…oh…oh kami…he had a child!
"Howl I-mmph…"
A smooth set of lips covered her own silky pair, stopping her from what she was about to say. She had no idea what to do, but she couldn't stop herself from leaning down, her arms wrapping around his neck, as his rested on her back, and opening her mouth for his searching tongue.
'Is it possible to even taste this good…? So sugary and sweet…' he thought, his tongue playing gently with hers. Tilting his head, he fisted his hand gently in her raven hair, pulling her mouth closer to his own. He wanted…no…he needed more of her.
Kagome knew what she was doing was wrong…she would surely go to hell for this. She was fornicating with a married man. However, she could not deny that what she was feeling right now, was better than what she'd felt like in a long time. She felt his hand tangle in her hair and moved closer to him still, her legs tangling in his, and both licking each other's insides (SabakunoJaganshi:…well, that sounded wrong, XD.).
Sitting up slowly, Howl played with the hem of the black men's tank top Kagome was wearing. It seemed like a good idea at first, it was a hot day… but now, even this shirt was heating up her skin. He pulled his lips off her, smiling at her panting breaths, before reaching for the neckline of the shirt.
"Do you like the shirt?" he asked, his normally suave voice a bit rough. When she shook her head, he ripped the shirt and then pulled the scattered remains off her. His eyes traced over her beautiful breasts, covered up in a pretty, purple bra. He glanced up at her face and chuckled smoothly. Little Kagome was blushing.
"Aw, what is it Kagome? Are you blushing because I'm getting ready to squeeze and suckle on your breasts?" Kagome's cheeks dusted even more color. "So it is then."
Smirking a bit, Howl reached around her back, making sure to rub their chests together, and unhooked her bra. He watched as the piece of material skid down Kagome's arms, revealing her firm, pale globes.
Kagome breathed in quickly when he leaned down, and she watched as his tongue peeked out to lick at the tip of her nipple. Jumping slightly, she shivered when he groaned, the force of her jump rocking into his hardened member.
"Damn…" he murmured, shaking his head. He could honestly swear that he had never seen a more perfect pair of breasts…and he was sure all of her was just as wonderful.
Kagome tilted her head back, her hair spilling down her back as Howl circled one of her nipples with his tongue. She moaned out when he suddenly suckled her nipple into his mouth, tugging on it as if it were chew toy and he was a puppy. She let out a small wail when he began pulling back, his mouth taking the nipple with it, before it reached its limit and popped out of his mouth. His smoldering eyes stared at the same nipple and he smiled, his fingers coming up to play with it.
"Please…"
Howl grinned, "Yes, Kagome?"
"T-The other one…please, Howl." She begged, her own fingers coming up to play with the nipple Howl had already played with.
"The other one," he echoed, his eyes drifting to her other breast, staring at the hardened tip, he smirked playfully, "What do you want me to do to the other one, Kagome?"
Kagome shivered, his voice was just so incredibly hot…he was making her sticky without even trying! "Please, s-suck,"
Howl eagerly took the nipple into his mouth, his tongue licking the tip and he sucked all around it. He swallowed, breathing through his nose as he sucked on her nipple; his hands began to make their way down to her shorts.
Kagome gasped, her back arching, breast coming further into his hot mouth. She could feel his fingers unbuttoning and unzipping her shorts and it wasn't long before he pulled them down, they stopped and came to rest at her ankles. She now sat on his lap in nothing but her purple panties.
He crossed his legs, brining her closer to his throbbing manhood. He rubbed against her, groaning around her breast. His fingers lowered, stopping at the center of her panties. Moving the small piece of cloth out of the way, he slid his long, slender middle finger deep into her opening. He held her down roughly when she jumped, startled.
His mouth slid off her breast, his voice coming out gentle, yet firm, "Stay still…"
Kagome whimpered when he turned her around, her back to his chest, his hands underneath her thighs and he braced himself on his knees. Supporting her delicate weight with one hand, he used it to pull his cock out of its confines. It stood at attention, long and thick. Deciding to leave her panties on, he simply moved them out of his way again, and steadily lowered her onto his throbbing arousal.
"Oh, oh!"
"No, no…" he eased gently, "It's okay…you're fine…just kinda sit down," he told her, holding her ass tightly, his teeth gritted at the intense heat and tightness that surrounded him.
"Oh, Howl…oh," she moaned quietly, her head falling back to rest on his shoulder, her throat bared to him. She shivered when he began to suck on her neck, distracting her from the pain of being torn apart.
"Kagome," he lifted her up slowly, and then pulled her down, her tight walls stretching to accommodate his length. He grunted, his hips moving on their own.
Kagome cried out, "H-Howl!" she leaned back, her hips lowering, wanting to feel more of him.
Licking his lips, Howl moved to a better position. He eased himself on his bottom and crossed his legs Indian style. He then slid his hands down to the back of her knees. Squaring her back with his chest, he pulled her up by the back of her knees and then allowed her to slam down, both moaning at the feeling.
"Oh, yes!" Kagome moaned. Her hands slid down, one coming to rest at her stomach and the other reaching in between them to cup his balls.
"Can you feel me, Kagome? Deep inside you? You're so tight, it's almost so hard to thrust in," he panted into her ear.
"Please," she whined, "Please, harder."
"Yes, Kagome, yes."
He began to pull her up and down harder, faster. Both of them groaned loudly and finally, Kagome let out a small scream and came hard, her walls quivering around Howl's cock, causing him to spill himself deep inside her.
He fell backwards, pulling her with him. She turned in his arms, coming face-to-face with him.
"Howl…"
"Kagome…"
Both shared another kiss before their eyes closed.
-A week later-
The couple had been woken up after their night of passion by a loud, cranking noise.
"I know that sound…" Howl murmured, standing up. Kagome watched as he pulled on his clothes before rushing outside.
"Howl?"
Kagome stood, grabbing her robe and tying it on. She moved towards the window and watched in disbelief as a large walking castle began to make it's way towards the shrine.
Stepping outside to get a better look, she stopped when she reached the stairs and looked down.
The door to the castle opened, and a very pretty girl flew out, only to land in Howl's arms. Kagome watched, her heart breaking as the girl reached up to kiss Howl, who stood there, rigid.
Shaking her head, Kagome walked over to the well house and stared down the Bone Eaters Well.
"Is this what you meant, Naraku?" Tears fell down to the well, "Another Kikyou/Inuyasha/Kagome?"
Kneeling down, she sobbed quietly for a couple of minutes.
"At least Sophie doesn't look like me…she's actually pretty…" Kagome squeezed her eyes shut. "Why am I always second-best?"
"Sophie?"
"Oh, Howl! Forgive me dearest! I knew something was wrong the minute I saw blood on the floor, then Calcifer told me what happened,"
Howl frowned to himself. Why wasn't he happy to see his own wife?
Kagome.
Howl sighed softly, "Sophie…I…"
Sophie stared up at her husband, "Don't tell me…"
"I have fallen in love with her Sophie…I'm sorry. You can keep the castle…but I will always come to see Morgan."
Sophie glared sadly, "You'll ditch her! Just like you've ditched so many others!"
Howl shook his head, "I would never."
And with that Howl turned, intent on finding Kagome.
Kagome looked up when arms circled around her and she stared up in surprise, "B-But, Sophie..!" she protested weakly.
Howl merely smiled, "I will never ditch the one I truly love."
God Dammit!
