Seshomaru searched for days. Slowly days grew into weeks. Those weeks added up into months. Seshomaru searched the land for his Rin and came up completely empty. No one would remember a small, little girl like Rin. His nose yearned for her familiar scent. He never realized how she soothed him until she was taken.

Jaken was always exhausted, there was rarely a moment of rest with his Lord anymore. Every waking moment was spent looking and flying and looking some more. Why doesn't he just give up? There are more important things he could be doing... Jaken thought to himself. Eventually he asked and was nearly torn to pieces by the rage that ensued.

"This Seshomaru will not let someone take what is his." Seshomaru had growled after he released some rage on the small demon. Jaken finally understood, or thought he did at least. It would show that Seshomaru was weak if something (or someone) was taken from him, and Lord Seshomaru was anything but weak.

Seshomaru continued his search for many months but eventually he was forced to return to his castle to settle barrier disputes. Even in the comfort of his home he was restless. Somewhere, out there, Rin was alive. He refused to think she had died, she would not leave him.

Realistically he knew that there was an extremely high probablility that she had perished. Humans were weak and easily died. He quickly pushed away that thought and a new one filled his mind. He remembered the way the slavers smelled when she was taken, like sweat and women. No. She will never be... that. He thought, shutting down that thought process immediatly. She will always be young and innocent, no one will take that away from her while I am alive.

Rin looked up at the satin fabric above her. Her head rested against a plush pillow as she gazed at the designs on the rich fabric, pondering the deeper meaning behind them. Her body was exhausted, Akui had worked her hard today. She released a quiet sigh, wishing she could lay under the stars like she used to but she knew that she would never be allowed.

Many moons had passed since she was taken and she was now sixteen summers old, old enough to bear children.

Old enough but it was impossible, Akui had made sure that no half-breeds would be made from his favorite pasttime. They disgusted him and he placed them even lower than humans. The day after she bled for the first time he ripped something in Rin that caused her much pain and she never bled again.

Rin glanced down at the large bear demon sleeping her bosom as she combed her fingers through his hair the way he liked. She was naked, as usual, and just finished another vigorous session with her Lord. It was much easier now, she knew what would please him and how to finish it quickest. She hated it, ever since that first night so many summers ago when he tore through her without mercy.

She would always remember when he forced her to pledge herself to him. Only moments later he had taken her to his tent and destroyed what was left of her innocence. She had tried to fight him but whenever she did he would beat her then do it again, usually making it more painful than before. Eventually she learned that fighting was useless and fell into the lull of Lord Akui's concubine.

It was an easy life, she assumed. She stayed in Lord Akui's tent, ready for any quickies that her Lord required. Sometimes he would have her with him by his throne, naked and chained to the chair in a sign of posession and she would 'perform' for his guests. She hated that almost as much as being alone with him but at least when she was performing no one touched her.

Lord Akui grumbled in his sleep, clenching his clawed hand around Rin's breast, making her body tense in pain but she did not cry out. Even when she was first taken by him she did not cry. Instead she would go limp and escape into a different world where she could pick flowers all day and fly on a dragon with her Lord. Her real Lord.

Lord Akui was roused slightly when Rin tensed and slowly he lifted his head.

"Hello, my flower." He said sleepily, planting a sloppy kiss on Rin's neck. She looked back at him with an empty expression. There was no fire left in her eyes and her lips were pressed in a flat line.

"I wish you would smile more. If not then I will be just fine with some tears." Akui growled, annoyed by her cold behavior and to prove his point he sunk his claws into her tender breasts.

Rin twitched but remained still and emotionless. She knew if she reacted poorly he would become enraged and do worse things to her but she also refused to play his stupid games. Her body was littered with scars from losing his game and she would do anything to add another mark to her already blemished skin.

"Would you like me to fetch you breakfast, my Lord?" Rin asked, her face not changing from her blank mask.

"Fine, but hurry back. I want some pleasure with my morning meal." He replied with a smirk, crawling off her so she could stand up. Rin walked out of the tent stark naked and started her short journey to the cook's tent. She had grown accustomed to the constant exposure and looks from the other demons. They would grab her and say nasty things but they could never take her for she was Lord Akui's, and that gave her a slight sense of security.

After gathering a small feast for her Lord, Rin started back to the elegant tent. She set the silver tray down on the small table next to the futon that Akui was sprawled on.

"Feed me some of those red berries." He said as he looked down at a map of the region. Rin nodded and grabbed the small dish of berries from the tray and gracefully laid down next to the naked body of her captor. Akui opened his mouth absent-mindedly as he continued to observe the map in his hands. Rin carefully placed a berry in his mouth and allowed him to chew and open up again before placing another.

The bowl emptied and Rin rose to set the bowl back on the tray when a clawed hand grabbed her dainty wrist and pulled her flush against his stomach. She could feel his arousal pressing against her stomach and knew what he wished for.

"Suck me, my lovely flower." Akui hissed, lust filling his eyes. Rin showed no sign of response other than scooting down her Lord's body.

"You are mine." Akui said as she pleasured him. He grabbed her head roughly and shoved her fully onto his length. Once she might have been afraid but now it was expected and she just continued her work. She had perfected the speed of pumping her fist, licking, and sucking, causing him to finish in just a few minutes. He screamed her name, bucking his hips into her wildly as his seed filled her mouth.

"Swallow it, bitch!" He howled and she quickly licked him clean before fetching a towel to clean him.

After he was clean he grabbed her face and pulled her into a passionate kiss, fondling her breast and shoving his tongue into her mouth.

She moved her tongue slightly so he would not be angered by her lack of enthusiasm but otherwise stood still as he groped her.

I am still here, waiting for you.Rin thought to herself as Akui reached behind her and dragged her body on top of his.

I will always wait for you, Lord Seshomaru.
