#3 Trip to the Hot Springs

Rin had began the short trip to the hot springs located less than a mile from the palace as she often did in spring. It was not crowded in the bath house since only she was allowed to use that particular one, but she preferred the soothing walk it took to get there. The path was shaded by large cherry trees boasting tens of thousands of pink flowers some of which landed on her and her cloths as she passed. As she walked her long silken hair was blown around by the wind which began carrying her scent for almost a mile… straight to Sesshoumaru's nose. She expected him to be in the palace, her mark had not sensed his presence yet as he was just a bit too far off.

He had been out surveying the lands around his palace, and decided to rest, when the subtle scent of his beloved found his powerful nose. Sitting up from the tree he had been leaning against when he sniffed the air to find her scent faintly carried in the wind. 'Where is she going…' he wondered as he turned to his direction toward hers 'the hot springs, I'm sure of it. I think I will enjoy a trip there myself.' Standing up he commanded Jaken, who had followed him out there, to stay where he was. "If I am not back by dusk head to the palace, until then do not move." Jaken nodded, unable to smell Rin himself, and sat down to await the return of his Lord who sped off the moment he had finished speaking.

Sniffing the air he noted that Rin was alone. Normally this would have upset the youkai Lord terribly since he had ordered six youkai to guard her in the times he could not. This time however he did not seem to mind too much since it allowed for privacy, with his speed he quickly stopped in front of her. Rin, who had been paying no attention to the path she was taking was shocked to find herself face to face with him. Laughing she said "Rin was not expecting you, but is glad you are here." Looking softly down at her he took her hand and led her to the largest and hottest spring there.

Though all of the springs were very warm, this one was his favorite. It was just warm enough for him but not too hot for her. "Remove your kimono Rin; you will have no more need of it for some time." As quickly as she could she untied her obi and let it hit the ground, shortly her kimono followed suit so she stood completely naked except for her stockings sandals. Looking at his mate with a hungry look in his eyes, his hand sought her soft breast. To his total dismay and immediate concern she turned her back to him forcing his claw to rub on the skin of her back. "Rin?" he questioned in a state of total confusion, she had never done that before.

Turning back to face him she relished the hunger in his golden eyes… but the shocked there shortened her excitement. For a long moment the two stood there, him wondering why she had turned away, her wishing him to ask. After only a minute or so of silence his soft velvet voice rang out, filled with the obvious pain of rejection. "Rin, my beloved, why do you turn your back to me now?" She looked up and down his body for a time before he understood what her problem was. The pain and confusion now gone from his eyes he could not remove his armor and garments fast enough, though he was completely undressed in less than two seconds.

The now naked Sesshoumaru reached his hand to Rin's breast again, this time he found exactly what it sought. As his hand rejoiced in the feel of her soft breast beneath it and he closed his eyes and she spoke. "There will be a time when Rin does not want this; there is nothing Rin wishes more than to mate with you. Rin just wishes that you would keep up with her state of dress from time to time." Any tension he had had faded when his gaze found hers, it held nothing but love and trust for him. His hand left its prize to wrap around her waist. Pulling her across the remaining distance between them distance between them he pressed his mouth to hers only to notice that was she still wearing her socks and sandals.

Looking down at them he spoke, barely a whisper in her ear. "I doubt they will do you much good in the hot spring Rin, are you sure you do not wish to remove them?" Laughing at herself she removed them quickly and straightened again only to find the deep burning desire in his eyes. Stepping into the hot spring Sesshoumaru turned to help Rin who stood patiently waiting just behind him. She smiled and leaned forward as his arm wrapped around her knees and lowered her to stand in front of him. Returning his hand to her breast his mouth sought hers for a fierce heated kiss. When he had her moaning from his efforts he pulled away to look at her.

Her eyes had glazed over with passion now and she smelled strongly of her arousal. Suppressing a growl he spoke to her in no rush to move on with their act quite yet, he would make her beg. "For a time I thought you did not want me to take you." He brought his mouth within just inches of hers only to pull away again. "I did not enjoy such a feeling, it troubled me deeply. If I thought for some reason that you did not want to mate due to something I had done to anger or upset you, I would do anything to make right any wrong I may have done." His hand slid down her stomach rubbing the flesh just before that curly hair guarding her treasure only to stop there and slowly go back up. "I would do anything to ensure that you are happy Rin. You need do no more than tell me what it is and I will give it to you." His mouth teased the back of her ear and she moaned softly and kissed his neck gently.

Another light growl escaped him at her gentle show of affection but he kept up his teasing, he wanted her to ask. He moved his hand just below her breast lightly grazing the underside before moving down to circle her navel. She whimpered softly and attempted to kiss him but landed her lips on his jaw, she used the opportunity to press sweet kisses over jaw. Seeing that she did not understand what he wanted he spoke again. "All you would need to do is ask and I would give you what you wanted, anything you wanted." This time she understood, he wanted her to ask him to make love to her, her face quickly became red.

Moving his hand over shoulder and to the marks he had left during their mating his claws lightly scratched them. The marks that bonded them, the scars on her shoulder, were invisible on his body but there. They shared any sensation that plagued those and his touch on her shoulder could only do one thing; make her want him too much to turn away. Rin gave in when his claws met her mating mark; she had to mate with him now. "Please Sesshoumaru, Rin can wait no longer, make love to me now." Her plea came in a wanton voice, sparked with lust and a need he had never heard before.

Leaning himself against the dirt wall of the hot spring his arm lifted her up to his hips holding her steadfast to him. Instinctively Rin's legs spread around his waist and pressed her knees against the wall around his hips. Without a seconds hesitation his body filled hers to the hilt, he gave her all he had to give. Moaning at the feeling of him burying himself inside her Rin arched forward grinding herself against his hips. A growl escaped Sesshoumaru as he implemented a hard and fast pace.

His body moved hard in and out of hers as his mouth plundered hers seeking the delicious taste harbored there. Grinding himself up deeply into her he waited, his teeth beginning to tease her mating marks causing her to shiver. Finding the same spot on his shoulder she kissed it lightly and he growled as a fire like pleasure rippled throughout his body. As Rin neared her peak she whispered passion infused words into his ear. "Rin rather enjoyed this game, it must be played again." Smiling Sesshoumaru leaned to tilt his hips to face up more and allowing Rin to take her pleasures from him without much effort from him. When he heard the cry that he knew marked her completion he forced himself to hold in his seed until she finished her hot and immeasurably pleasurable spasms before spilling himself deep inside her with an animalistic growl.
