Aftermath

Disclaimer: I don't own anything! Don't SUE! ,

Sesshomaru, Inu Yasha, and Miroku stormed the castle and easily overtook Naraku. After slaying him, they burned the remains and placed them in the ground. Miroku sealed Narakus evil power away for all eternity, and they went to get the girls. Sesshomaru burst through the door first.

"I knew you'd come to rescue us!" Leila exclaimed, throwing her arms around Sesshomarus neck.

The others looked on knowingly. Miroku and Inu Yasha fussed over Sango and Kagome, playing the role of soon-to-be fathers too well. Kagome smiled at Sango and Leila as Inu Yasha carried her out of the castle.

Sesshomaru carried Leila away from the others. She didn't complain, but snuggled deep into his chest. She trusted him with her life. Sesshomaru was taking them deep into the mountains… he planned to make her his forever. He planned to use the Ai Keppan.

When they arrived in a clean looking clearing, Sesshomaru laid her gently on the ground. She looked up at him with confusion as he kneeled beside her. And then he leaned over and covered her mouth with his, and all was lost. The kiss was filled with a heat that Leila had never experienced in her life. He removed her shirt with a quick flick of his wrist, and did the same with her skirt. He began trailing kisses down her body, pausing only to remove his many garments.

Leila was in heaven. Sesshomaru seemed to have a thousand hands and mouths and they were all intent upon her. She moaned and writhed beneath his skillful tactics, her mind a foggy haze of sensation. She didn't realize that they both were completely nude until she felt him pressing into her. Her eyes shot open to see him poised above her, gazing at her.

"If you're not sure, we can stop," he said quietly.

Leila shook her head. "I want this… and I want you."

He bent his head to her neck and sank his teeth in at the same moment he broke her virgin barrier. Leila screamed in a mixture of pain and pleasure. He drank deeply and then used his razor sharp nail to draw a line of blood on his chest. He pressed her lips to it, and she, too, drank, her mind so confused and her body so caught up in the steady rhythm he had begun to protest. They at once felt a strange sensation- an intense heat spreading through their veins that had nothing to do with the love making, but drove them to a blinding pace. The intense heat turned to scorching heat, which turned to boiling. They climaxed together and fell into each others arms, still shuddering, but from the strange things going on within them. They fell asleep wrapped around one another, and dreamed peacefully.

They woke the next day feeling incredibly strange. They looked at each other, and Leila touched her neck. We did it… we actually did it… my Gods!

"Do not fear our future together," Sesshomaru said.

"How did you know…?" Leila asked, confused.

"I- I saw it in your eyes," he said, trying to convince himself more than her.

"Your back was turned," Leila said, "No- I think what we- did- last night… it made it so we feel what the other is feeling. We created a bond stronger than any other."

Sesshomaru smiled at her, wrapping his arms around her slender body. "Shall we go back?"

"My clothes are- dead," she said, grinning.

He handed her his shirt. "Let's give them a scare…" he said grinning mischievously, "And it's not that strange…" he stopped when he realized he had just read her mind.

Leila laughed. "You think some very interesting things, Sesshomaru."

He stuffed the shirt over her head and took her hand. "This could take some time to get used to, my love."

"Well, we have all eternity," Leila said, kissing him tenderly. All eternity…

There… DONE! Now look for the next installation in this epic. The Wolf and The Witch. It's Koga's story! YAY! Till next time, buh bye!
