Chapter 8
Geru had made haste, and moved as quickly as he could to the north, trying to be done with the job that Sesshomaru had asked of him. The northern Lord was of wolf demon, and according to Sesshomaru did more travelling since half of his pack was killed out by Kagura.
Geru got the the entrance of the cave, and entered, about twenty wolves looked at him. It was then that the wolf Lord waked to him.
" Who are you?" Lord Geru took a bow, to show some respect. He wasn't here for a fight.
" My name is Geru, and I am Lord Sesshomaru's general. I have a message for you. And I need a reply straight away." The wolf demon took the letter and began to read it.
" Ha ha so Lord Sesshomaru is looking for a mate in he?" He then looked at Geru. And made a quick note on the back.
"Tell your Lord Sesshomaru, that I will bring my most valuable women, and meet him in fort nights time." Geru took the letter back, and bowed.
" Thank you Lord Kouga. However I will need you to come sooner." Kouga looked at him questionable.
"Why does he need me there sooner?" Geru looked at him and shook his head.
" I am afraid I do not know, I just know that was what he asked." Kouga looked to the back of his pack, and then back at Geru.
" you tell Sesshomaru I will be there as soon as I check on my women, that damned half breed better have kept her safe?" This sparked an interest in Geru.
" May I ask who your women is?" Kouga looked at Geru almost a little speechless he asked.
" My women is Kagome. Why do you ask?" Kouga looked suspicious now. Geru attitude changed, Kagome his Kagome?
" When you said half breed?" Geru asked. " Are you talking about Inuyasha?" Koga then smirked, and nodded.
" Ha ha I guess I am, Lord Sesshomaru is after all his half brother. Why do you know where he is?" Geru then took as tapped back. Was Kagome playing him, did she already have an intended.
" No but I know where Kagome is!" He then looked down." She has been travelling with me and Lord Sesshomaru this last few weeks." Kouga eyes lite up. So Kagome would be at the palace. This made things a lot more interesting.
"Fine we leave soon, I will want to see my women again." And with that he began to walk away.
" Lord Kouga. Kagome is your women, has she agreed to this?" Kouga didn't know why he was asking so many questions.
" I made a claim on her, however I do not think she has completely accepted. Why did you ask?" Geru then looked directly at Kouga
" She just accepted to allow me to court her yesterday." With that everything went silent. Kouga knew more then ever he would need to take haste, and see Kagome. No one would have Kagome but him.
" tell Lord Sesshomaru I'll be there soon. As for Kagome we shall see who she truly chooses when we both talk to her. I'm telling you general, you won't win this." And with that he walked back to the end of the cave.
Geru not wanting to make a fight out of this walked away on to the next general. He would be done in one week, if he was quick about it. Then he could return to the women he sought to mate.
The kiss between Kagome and Sesshomaru lasted minutes and Kagome was out of breath. No one had stirred such passion inside her. This was something new. She had kissed three men, Inuyasha, Geru, and now Sesshomaru. Either one had made her feel as Sesshomaru had when he kissed her. Kagome bowed her head down in almost shame. She had promised that she would court Geru, and here she was kissing Sesshomaru. Wait! Kissing Sesshomaru! When would that ever, ever happen. Looking up at him, his breathing was layered, and he looked down at her with passion filling in his eyes.
Sesshomaru didn't know if he should kiss her again, or kick her out of his room. She stirred something within him, that no one else had ever done before. He pulled her in to him, and allowed her to attach herself upon him.
Kagome could feel his firm body against hers, she began to feel something strange in her belly, and realized that Sesshomaru had brought out a feeling no one had ever done. She wanted him to keep touching her, and kissing her. She wanted more.
Sesshomaru noticed he had turned Kagome on, and realized if he didn't end this now, he would take her right then and there. He wanted her, like he had never wanted someone before, all from one measly kiss. He couldn't admit this to himself, he never would, but something had changed between him and Kagome. He couldn't never admit he had grown some sort of attraction for the girl.
" I think it's best you go back to your room Kagome" Kagome looked up at him and nodded. As much as she wanted this too, she realized it was wrong in so many different ways. She pulled herself from Sesshomaru and walked to his door in a trance. It was then that Sesshomaru had waited until she stopped, and turn towards him.
Sesshomaru walked up to her and pulled her to himself once again, and lowered his head, this time Kagome knew what he was doing and she followed suite. He placed a deep kiss on her mouth, and she returned the kiss. Her lips was soft, and gentle against his, she had a sweetness to them. He slightly nibbled on her lip, and she opened with compliance. Allowing his tongue and her tongue to fight for dominance. Again the kiss had cam to hault, when Sesshomaru could smell Kagome's attraction to him, and needed to stop before things got out of hand.
" I'm sorry, I shouldn't have done that, your promised to my general. You must leave." And with that he opened the door, and watched a glazed Kagome walk out, and into her room. She hadn't said anything, what was there to say? He was right, she was promised to Geru, and she had betrayed him. She had kissed Sesshomaru, she had wanted Sesshomaru.
Sesshomaru closed the door after Kagome leave, and become angry with himself. How could he allow a girl, a stupid human to break down a wall he had always had placed up. Her kiss had tranced, and bewitched him. He had been so close to taking her innocence, and having his way with her. Again he wouldn't admit it out loud, not really to himself. However he wanted her. Not like any other being. The sooner Geru finished his duty, the better.
Kagome fell upon her bed, unsure of what had really happened. Had she actually shared multiple kisses with Sesshomaru, had this actually happened. She got into bed, and looked down at the book. This had happened all because of a book. She got into bed, and let the sleep over take her. Dreaming of a demon lord, and his seductive kisses he laid on her waiting lips.
Kouga had made haste towards Inuyasha he wanted to know what had exactly happened to his Kagome. He was close he could smell the mutt, and the other humans. This time there was a different scent, a scent of graveyard soil and bones. He stopped when he saw the mutt, and the mutt had pulled out his sword again.
" Inuyasha you damn mutt what have you done with Kagome?" He screamed. Inuyasha not having the patience, pulled his sword to face Kouga.
" Shut up you mangy wolf, I didn't do anything, she left with him, on her own accord." Kouga looked shocked, and almost numb. She had left to be with Sesshomaru, why?
Kikyou knew that this would end badly if she allowed Inuyasha to talk more about it. She took the opportunity to stand in front of Inuyasha. Giving him a warning look to back off. Sango and Miroku was now standing at the side of Inuyasha.
" Lord Kouga is it?" Kikyou asked him, and he did nothing but stare at the women. The women who looked like Kagome but smelled like graveyard soil.
" Yes it is. You must be Kikyou." He asked and she nodded in response.
" What happened to Kagome?" He asked her, knowing she would give it to him straight.
" Inuyasha had made his decision, to be with me rather then Kagome. When Kagome went to go back to the well, to travel home. She ran into Sesshomaru he had taken her. We figure from her free will, as we have caught her scent from time to time, and she has already gone home once, and doesn't appear to be injured. There is another demon, who seems to be taken care of her."
Kouga was dumbfounded shocked. Why wouldn't she come to him, why wouldn't she want to be with him, if not Inuyasha. With that, he said his thanks, and began to run away.
" Kouga! I must ask, where are you heading off too?" Kouga stopped and looked at Sango.
"Ha ha Inuyasha half brother is about to choose a mate. Who knows why, but I have been summoned. See ya!" And with that he was gone.
Everyone looked at each other. Sesshomaru was choosing a mate. Why? Then Inuyasha began to laugh. He was laughing harder then anyone had seen before.
" Sesshomaru take a mate." Sango looked at Miroku, why was this so funny.
" We should go and watch this. I can only imagine how true it really is." Inuyasha said, and with that, he began to walk into the direction of the western palace. Everyone just following suite.
The next day Kagome went to see Rin straight away, she had wanted to see Sesshomaru, to talk about what happened the night before. She had wanted to ask him what had happened. She had become confused on what was the reason for his kiss.
Rin was staring at her, wondering what was wrong with her, had something happened between her and Sesshomaru. She wanted to know. Kagome had become a mother figure to her, and she worried about Kagome, and what was going on with her.
" Kagome have I done something wrong?" She asked Kagome, looked at Rin. Kagome's face soften and she took the young girls hand.
" No Rin not at all. I'm just a little melancholy ." Rin was shocked to hear this. Kagome was always in such a happy and spirited mood.
" Is there anything Rin could do." Kagome smiled at the young girl, and hugged her close to him.
" Oh Rin you are helping me, just by being you." Rin smiled at Kagome, and notice Sesshomaru waking by just out of the courier of her eye.
"Lord Sesshomaru! Come and cheer Kagome up, she is melancholy my Lord." Sesshomaru stopped at the young girl, and watched as Kagome took Rin in her arms and hugged her, just like a mother would. It was then that Sesshomaru saw something more in the young women, he had not really considered, she would make a wonderful mother. She already treated Rin as her child.
Kagome looked up at him, her eyes shinning with hurt, confusion, and sorrow. It to Sesshomaru back. He knew part if this was because of last night. He looked at Rin who was laughing joyfully. Playing with weird things Kagome had obviously brought back from her time, for the young girl.
" Rin I must talk to The Miko alone, go find Jaken and play outside." She nodded and hugged Kagome and skipped off joyfully, finding the green imp not far up ahead.
" Why so melancholy?" He asked her, and she just looked down and her hands resting in her lap.
" I'm confussed, and mad I guess. Sad about what I have done. I've betrayed Geru." She sighed out. He understood now. She s confussed what happened between them, mad at herself, and sad for the guilt she held for Geru. He didn't need to, he just wanted to comfort her woes.
" Kagome." It was one of a few times he had used her name. She looked up and him. He didn't move but looked at her eyes, with almost caring and passion.
" What we did last night, was a mistake, it was two people longing for someone or something. I can't explain why I was so easily swayed, because I do not know myself. However that being said, it won't happen again. " Kagome nodded, not getting the complete clarity she wanted, but it was enough.
"As for Geru, I think I should be the one to tell him I kissed you, and leave it be. He will be upset with me, however I can handle this. You shouldn't feel guilty. Geru is a smart demon he will forgive you." And with that he walked away leaving her to her own thoughts.
