Chapter 10 – Confessions
Kagome sat in the room Rin had cared for her in looking out the window. Did she really love him? How could one love so soon and with so little contact? How did he feel about her? He had kissed her twice now, he wouldn't have done so if he didn't feel anything. Yet she was human. He hated humans. He doesn't hate Rin, so maybe. She shook her head. She would ask him tonight. If she could muster up the courage.
InuYasha ran like the wind. He had been in a cave within his forest when a woman had found him. He was about to kill her when a spider told him to stop, they were friends. He had listened to the spider tell him of what he had saw between the lord and InuYasha's estranged wife. InuYasha had been shocked she still lived, but angered when he heard she was with his brother. He had gone to seek revenge and to see with his own eyes if the spider spoke the truth. Sesshomaru hated humans, why would he be with Kagome? But he had seen her there confirming the spider's story. He had drawn her blood and attempted to kill her mate. Yet when he thought he was to die she had cried out for him. Did she still care? Then why did she betray him. He quicken his pace, he had to get way before he went back and tore her apart. Somewhere deep down, he still cared despite his demon side being in control.
Sesshomaru was deep in thought. Someone had told InuYasha that Kagome was here and that they were together. Which they weren't, were they? He shook that thought out of his mind. Kagome had been made to look like she had betrayed InuYasha. What was going on? Why did someone want to divide them and make them fight? Secretly he thanked them. It had brought her to him. He shook his head again. He had to get her out of his head. He wanted her. Soon he wouldn't be able to resist though it sickened him. He was just like his father. He sighed and turned toward home. He needed rest.
He walked into his private rooms and into his study. He liked it here, it was quiet and peaceful. He frowned when he saw someone was sitting in one of the chairs. Kagome. She was sleeping she must have been waiting for him to get back. Why he wondered. He sat at his desk looking at the sleeping girl breathe evenly. Staring at her sleeping face, he admired how her lashes fell on her cheeks like dark crescent moons and her lips sensual and soft. She stirred in her sleep and her eyes opened to see golden eyes staring at her from across the table. He was back.
"Sesshomaru, I need to talk to you" She said straightening herself up. She was deeply embarrassed to have fallen asleep. She wondered how long he had waited for her to wake.
She took his silence as an opportunity to keep talking. Don't back out now girl she thought.
"I-I have feelings for you" She said bluntly.
Sesshomaru kept his detached demeanour though his heart leapt to hear her words. This is wrong he thought this isn't happening. Minutes had passed since her confession and neither had spoken. They continued to just stare at each other, until she finally dropped her eyes. She felt tears prick at her eyes when she realised how stupid she had been to believe he felt the same. She rose to leave and was shocked when she found herself pushed up against the study wall. Fierce golden eyes looked into hers as he plunged his mouth onto hers. Gasping she tried to keep up with his demanding tongue. She felt him reach behind her and lift her up, wrapping her legs around him. She could feel his hands on her arse as he continued to assault her mouth with his tongue. She wrapped her arms around his neck, as she had before when they kissed and pulled him further closer to her. She let out a slight moan as her body became more and more aroused.
Sesshomaru pulled away and looked into her eyes, heavy with desire he could deny it no longer.
"I feel for you too."
At his words Kagome kissed him passionately full of love and need. She needed him. She wanted to eat, drink and breathe him. Sensing this he pulled away.
"You need to leave" He said looking away.
Without a word she turned away and left. Her heart warmed knowing he felt for her too.
Sesshomaru sat down, his member was pulsing with need and had she stayed he would have plunged into her without second thought. But he had thought, the potential to sire a half breed existed and would be unforgivable. So he had sent her out. He stirred when her scent remained clear in the air. Swirling around him as he felt warmth where she had touched him. She feels for me. I feel for her yet it is shame I am left with. He had thought. This insignificant human had invaded his heart.
Kagome had gotten into bed and pulled her covers over her when she suddenly felt a breeze blow past her face. She looked up but saw no-one and lay back down. She turned her head to find two glowing amber eyes staring into her own. He had lay down behind her and wrapped and arm around her pulling her close. She leaned back and looked back at him and his lips meet hers. She turned her head back slowly as he kissed her cheek, neck and shoulders making her shiver. Soon she drifted into sleep as the lord held her. Sesshomaru lay awake with his arm around her listening to her breathe, the sound brought him the strangest feelings like each breathe was important to him.
