A couple of weeks later… The day before the night of the new moon.
WARNING: THIS IS THE CHAPTER THE RATING GOES UP TO M. PLEASE CONTINUE AT YOUR OWN RISK! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
Disclaimer: I only own InuYin, InuYenega, and Kohomaru.
"Kohomaru! Come back here!" InuYin yelled at her son as he ran away, chasing InuYenega. I laughed, and now it feels so good. She could be so funny. My laughter still caused stares from the humans in the village, but I supposed that could be due to the fact that I haven't left since the attack…
"Sesshomaru?" My lovely Rin called. I walked over to my incredibly beautiful mate-to-be and kissed her. I would do anything for this woman
"Yes, my lovely Rin?" She chuckled slightly and blushed… we were both still adjusting to this wonderful affections we could share.
She acted like she wanted to grab my hand and she was being very shy, "Why are you still here? Why have you not gone back to your palace and your people?" She looked up into my eyes as I grabbed her hand, "Are they not worried about you?"
I placed her hand on my heart, "Dear Rin. If I left you here, then someone might try and kill you while I'm gone." The very thought sent a shiver down my spine, "And I cannot allow that."
"So after our marriage, you shall go?" She almost looked concerned at my answer.
I smiled at her, "Yes, we shall leave."
She looked shocked and pulled her hand away, "But will you not lose the respect of your people if they find out that you have taken a human as your mate?" She turned, becoming more upset, "Your dream is to become a great Alpha, and you cannot do that without the respect of your people… I will not have you give up your dream for me… I'm just some lowly human…"
I spun her around and hugged her to my chest, "You are my dream now. You, Rin, made my dreams come true."
She laughed softly, "You silly demon…" she held me back.
Then, suddenly, Kagome yelled, "Koga! Ayame! It's good to see you!" I watched as she, carrying her twins, ran across the front area of Rin's rebuilt house and over to hug Koga, Ayame, and their son and daughter. A thought occurred to me. Koga was the name of the wolf-breathed mutt that was Kohomaru's father. I wondered if this leader of the east was one and the same…
I saw InuYin peek out the door of her hut. She was glaring at Koga, who was talking with InuYasha. "Yo, Koga!" She called out to him as she walked towards him. He gulped. Rin and I walked closer. If I was excited or anxious, I still do not know.
"Hey, InuYin. Long time, no see huh." He told her obviously nervous. Then he was unexpectedly on the ground with a huge welt on his head where Kohomaru's fist connected. I felt an evil smile crawl across my face. I cracked my knuckles, preparing for a fight and to kill him, should InuYin request it.
"Hey." InuYin replied, "Koga, I would like you to meet OUR son, Kohomaru." She said gesturing to him. The look on Koga's face was priceless.
Koga head popped up, "OUR son? You mean that . . . ? And he is . . . ?"
Ayame looked really ticked off, "Aimi, Daichi, please go play with the other children." They nodded and took off, knowing to stay away when their mother was angry. I gently pushed Rin behind me, to protect her should something go wrong.
Koga crawled away from her, "Now Ayame, sweetheart, There's no reason to get angry! This happened a long time ago! Long before we were married." She still looked about ready to kill him, "Long before we even met!" He exclaimed.
"But I loved you Koga . . ." InuYin said, "I loved you with my whole heart and left me alone in the middle of the night, without a note saying what happened or why! Do have any idea how hard that was for me?! Especially after I found out I was pregnant with your child!" She walked up and slapped him, with tears in her eyes. She then ran away, with InuYasha on her heels, trying to comfort her. I couldn't decide what to do. I really wanted to kill him for making InuYin suffer, but that could only make her suffer more…
"You no good, dirty, wolf-breathed, ASS!" Kohomaru yelled, "How dare you! Look at what you did to my mother! You made her suffer! You ruined her life! I HATE you! You fucking butthead! I hope we never have to see you again!" He yelled at Koga and kicked him in the face. I snorted… even I wasn't expecting that…
Koga quickly stood up and grabbed Ayame's arm. "Ayame let's go. I'm not in the mood to get my ass kicked by a dirty mixed-breed." Ayame just nodded and called their children, and they left. Kohomaru fell to his knees exhausted from his outburst, and cried.
InuYenega quickly ran over to his adopted brother, "Kohomaru . . . Dude, You kick that asshole's butt! That was cool!" A small, sad smile appeared on Kohomaru's face.
Kohomaru sniffled and looked up at InuYenega, "Thanks."
I whispered in Rin's ear, "I'll be right back." She nodded and I took off towards where InuYasha and InuYin ran off to. "InuYin? InuYasha? Where have you two disappeared to?"
The sun was going down when I approached the clearing they were sitting in, "InuYasha . . . I just, do not know what to do. I wish I could give Kohomaru a happier home, but I do not think I could."
He put his arm around her shoulder, "It's alright, InuYin. He loves you, no matter what and so does InuYenega. You are their family and they couldn't ask for anything more." Right then the sun set, I had forgotten that it was the night of the new moon and they started changing. InuYin's hair changed instantly to black and her eyes faded to brown, while InuYasha's eyes changed instantly and his hair faded to black, so for a split second, they were no longer identical, then the moment passed and they were twins again.
I slowly approached them, silently, and when I was right behind InuYin, I reached down and tickled her. "Big Brother! Stop It!" We all started laughing and enjoying each other's company. InuYin was staring up at the stars… much like she did when she was small and still afraid. She would say that the stars made her feel safe… like the stars were angels and the moon was her parents hugging and watching over her…
"It's hard to believe that 3 short years ago, I hated you, Sesshomaru, and I didn't even know you existed, InuYin, and yet now, we act as if we've been this way our entire lives." InuYasha said, souring the mood.
"InuYasha," InuYin slapped him upside his head, "Shut up."
We all laughed and sat together in comfortable silence. I believe that this is truly the life Father wanted us to have.
After a couple of hours sitting and discussing our lives, InuYasha's twins came over carried by their mother and Rin. "InuYasha…" Kagome said as she sat down, "Hold Momoko for me." She handed her daughter with the dogs ears and black hair over to him. "Rin… Hand me Ryuuhiko." She said. Rin gently placed the silver haired boy in her lap.
"You know," InuYin said, "He could almost be human, except for his hair color."
Kagome shook her head, "No. They both have their father's eyes."
Rin came and kneeled down next to me. She whispered in my ear, "Sesshomaru. I'm going to bathe in the river… feel free to join me." She left then without giving me time to respond. I felt my eyes go slightly wide as they watched her walk away. My little Rin, just invited me to join her bath… Maybe she really is not little anymore… I was in shock. I knew that it was to happen, but I did not expect her to initiate it. And I certainly did not expect for it to come before our wedding…
I stood up, "I have business to attend to." I said as I left. No one questioned me.
When I arrived at the river, she was already in. Her clothes laying on a rock near the bank. I sat and watched her for a moment. Her pale skin glowing like starlight in the dark. Her movements were so graceful, I could have watched her for hours. She looked up and her deep brown eyes were fixed upon me. She smiled, "Are you going to join me, or just stand there all night?" She shivered, "Hurry and decide. The water is cold."
I felt a deep clench in my gut and shivers go up my own spine. Without speaking, I slowly began to undress. Removing my armor and mokomoko took some time, but she did not say a word. Rin simply stared as I slowly removed the last of my clothing. I stood there for a moment, allowing her to drink in every inch of me before I began to approach her. She was right the water was freezing and I felt myself growing with anticipation. Her eyes began to grow as she watched me enter the river. I was mere inches away from her before you looked up into my eyes. "Rin." I whispered, "Are you sure this is what you want?"
Her answer was placing her arms around me waist and pulling her body against me. I attempted, and failed, to hold in a delighted groan as her soft flesh touched mine. Her breath was shaky, "Lord Sesshomaru… All I want is you…"
I gently picked her up and she placed her arms around my neck. I kissed her neck as I walked us deeper into the river so only our shoulders and up were above the water. "Rin…" I whispered softly in her ear, "This may hurt and I am so sorry." I kissed her lips harshly and I gently placed myself into her. She groaned softly against my lips when I reached her inner wall. I stopped, "Rin, last chance to change your mind." She looked at me, determined, and forced herself over the last couple of inches, breaking that internal barrier and giving herself to me. She groaned in pain and I saw tears beginning to form. I quickly kissed them away. I forced my lips onto hers as I slowly started moving inside of her. She took a sharp intake with every movement, but pulled me closer her to her. I began to speed up and she looked deep into my eyes and placed a rough, luxurious kiss on my lips. I pulled away and continued to speed up as I placed a trail of kisses down her neck. She began to make noises. Wet, delicious noises that spike up my need for her. I could feel her ecstasy grow around me as she forced herself closer and dug herself into my chest. She exploded around with a glorious squeal of release, but I was not done. I continued my steadily increasing rhythm of thrusts as my own ecstasy grew. I need release and I needed it desperately. I felt myself forcing deeper and faster inside of her, all gentleness gone. I felt my beast coming to the surface and I tried to fight him back but it was too late. I felt my need take over and I dragged Rin to the shore. I dropped her to the ground and went as deep as I could. I bit her neck full force with my fangs and I dug my claws into her shoulder blades. She cried out in pain and that finally sent me over the edge. I felt the release come over me and my beast was satisfied. I was once again in control and I slowly, carefully removed my fangs and claws from her precious skin. I licked away the blood and, after a moment, finally looked at my beautiful mate's face. She looked terrified and like she was in extreme pain. I felt tears come to my eyes as I whispered, "I'm going to come out now okay? This is going to hurt." She nodded and, as gently as I could, I removed myself from the bloody mess. She stiffened, but did not call out. I turned over and laid down beside her, tears flowing unchecked down my face, "Dear Gods, Rin… I am so sorry." I began to choke on my tears, "I thought I could control myself. I thought I could be gentle and sweet and make this first time romantic for you, but all I've done is hurt you and-"
She placed a deep kiss on my lips, silencing me, "Thank you, Sesshomaru." She looked down at me with love. "It was perfect."
I placed my hand on her back to steady her and she winced at my touch, "Rin. Let me see your back."
She laid down on top of me, as if her weight would prevent me from standing, "No. Please don't ruin this moment further…"
I knew then, that it was serious. I gently picked her up and sat her down on my lap with her back to me. I pushed her hair over her shoulder and saw the terrible damage I caused, "Oh… Rin." The pearls of the necklace had rubbed her neck raw. There were already bruises forming from where I dropped her on the rocks, and there were eight heavily bleeding punctures from where my claws entered her skin. I gently lapped up the blood, trying to clean the wounds. "Let's get you back to Kagome, before it gets any later."
I lightly placed her on her feet. She turned to argue, but upon seeing my expression changed her mind. I helped her dress and I dressed quickly. I picked her up and ran her back to the village. I quietly entered their hut to see everyone asleep except InuYasha. "What do you want, Sesshomaru?" His face received an odd expression after he sniffed the air, "Uhh... Kagome." He woke up his mate, "This is for you to deal with." She gave him an evil glare before she saw us.
She gave us a curious look and followed us back to Rin's hut, "What's happened?"
I tenderly set Rin down on her feet, "Rin is injured and needs assistance."
Kagome's eyes widened, "What happened? I thought you were asleep ages ago!" Rin shyly shook her head. "Then what happened?" Rin blushed and turned to show Kagome her back. I helped her remove her kimono as to not agitate her wounds further and received a strange look from Kagome for it, but when she saw Rin's back she gasped, "Oh my goodness! Rin! What did you do?"
"It was my doing." I said before Rin could speak, "I'm afraid I dropped her on the rocks and then… placed my claws in her back… Can you assist her or no?"
She glared evilly at me then asked Rin to sit down, which she could not do without assistance. "Now I hate to ask because I don't really want to know but…" she paused for a moment to gather her composure, "Did you two have sex?" I simply turned my head away and Rin nodded slightly. Kagome sighed, "Well I had already made a cream to help you with the pain, Rin. I was not going to give it to you until after your wedding when I figured you were going to need it, but I guess you need it now." She got up and went to her hut to get it. While she was gone, I helped Rin out of her outfit and was trying to make her comfortable on her futon when Kagome returned. "Here" She handed Rin a bottle filled with white goo. "Rub this… umm, where it hurts." She said, blushing slightly, "Let me finish helping your back, then I suggest you get some sleep. Sleep will help more than anything." Rin nodded as Kagome finished with her back and then left.
"Sesshomaru," Rin whispered as I was getting up to leave. "Will you help me?" She shook the bottle with the white goo at me.
I felt myself go slightly pink, "Are you sure?" She nodded and turned towards me, opening her legs wide so I could see… Unfortunately, most of what I saw was a bloody mess. "Hold on." I said as I grabbed a wet cloth, "Here." I gently removed the blood and she squirmed beneath my touch, "Stop moving Rin." She froze and stayed as still as she could while I applied the cream. "There. Is that better?" She nodded and went to lie on her side to sleep.
I got up to leave once more and she whispered, "Don't go…" I stopped and turned around. Lying there underneath a blanket was a woman who I had hurt, who was battered and bruised because of me, and yet she did not want me to leave. She still loved me despite all that I had done. I came back a gently laid down beside her, careful not to touch her back and she used my mokomoko as a pillow…
"You are a strange human, Rin…and I would not change a thing about you."
