I Do Not Own Inuyasha

Orders of Offerings

Rin found her head being moved at an odd angle by these two as they eagerly examined the mark her lord had given her. She'd have growled in her frustrations at their antics but she was enduring it as Koga shoved her head to the side and yanked the collar of her garment over her shoulder as he leaned over her mark. A frown was playing on her lips as she sat there enduring it and sat there glaring at her lord for being ignorant to the test.
Shishinki grabbed her chin as he examined her face with intently; her neck was beginning to feel like a snake's neck with all these awkward swerving moves the boys were making her head endure. She gnashed her teeth at his claws when they wandered a little too close to her lips.
"Still feisty as ever," Shishinki chuckled as he yanked his hand away to evade getting bit. She smirked.
Well of course she was feisty! If she wasn't there was no way she'd have ever survived living with her lord for as long as she had and these two idiots knew it. Just look at the tests they had been giving her ever since she had been eight summers old.
"It doesn't appear that she'd rejected the claim!" Koga announced excitedly as his claws traced the mark her lord had given her. "And your will?"
"Complete," he answered. Rin blinked at him and he shook his head to her which had her thinking this was nothing to worry about at the moment. Her lord would tell her if she needed to worry about something and he would never hide something important to her well-being from her. Sesshomaru was very proud of keeping her in good health (don't ask her why because she honestly had no idea why this was so important to him or why he was so proud of it) and he never hid anything she needed to know about from her.
"Amazing!" Koga announced as he pulled away to give her a thoughtful look.
"And there was no rejection?" Shishinki asked.
"No," her lord answered. Rin pulled up her collar, covering her tanned skin as she stood up then and walked over to her lord.
"Well then, if there was no rejection then I don't see any reason for you not to keep her. she does understand everything this bond entails though; correct?" Koga asked as he looked her over.
"I understand perfectly," Rin answered coolly. She did too; though she was sure her lord didn't want her to know everything this meant for her she had long since learnt just what all of their bond would entail and she had long since accepted it.
Besides, she wanted him, she had wanted him for as long as she could remember and to be chosen by him was her dream come true. Her lord lifted a brow at her claim, and he shot her a skeptical look which had her smiling in retaliation
.
Sesshomaru left with Rin when Koga and Shishinki had finished their examination of the bond and he knew full well that his little human had no idea what all of this bond entailed; but since he never had any intentions of abusing her will he wasn't going to go about telling her. He was not such a lowly yōkai to create a human slave to his will through mating with her. Rin was his equal, she always had been.
Now, the enslavement of will was not all that hard to do, and it was done through intercourse; and it was lethal to humans. It was the essence of yōkai which did the enslaving of wills; and though Rin did not know it at this moment, she would crave him often and would literally do anything for him and the relief he could provide her with. It was the see of yōkai which was addictive, and it was through this addiction that yōkai were able to enslave and trick humans into loving them.
This form of addiction was a way for mated pairs to never betray each other; and even yōkai were addicted to the essence of their partners. However, unlike humans, yōkai could reciprocate the mating bond and the addiction which made it a 'complete' bond rather than the one-sided enslavement that humans would endure.
However, there was another catch to the mating and, or the enslaving of humans.
A daiyōkai in particular, or a yōkai of any real caliber, could control just how addicted and enslaved their mates could and would get, he had left Rin relatively untouched in comparison to what some could and would do. He would only enforce his will if she were in danger and he would hopefully never get her too addicted.
Humans were known to die from their addiction to their yōkai captors, they'd die from over use, or a never ending craving or neglect. Humans were annoyingly fragile creatures! However, he was going to see to it that all of Rin's needs were met and she was never left wanting for anything he could provide her with. He was also never going to steal her will from her or enslave her to him.
And that was what Rin did not know about this bond; it was just as pleasurable as it was dangerous for her, and she would never know because he was never going to let her be in danger.
"So, where do we go from here my lord?" she inquired as she walked on a log like a child with her arms spread for balance.
"Where do you wish to go?" he asked. He'd take her where ever she wished to go; right after they collected Jaken and A-Un.
"Well, you see, that's the thing, I don't want to go anywhere," Rin said as she hopped down to his side and grinned mischeiviosly. "However, I wouldn't say no to anything you wanted to do," she said innocently.
He pulled her chin up as he loomed over her. their height difference was a minor annoyance, he decided as his mouth came crashing down on hers' and she hoisted herself up so her fingers were entangled in his hair as she kissed him back with a glee no one ever had.

Kagome found herself in the gardens with her older sister Kikyo and walking in silence. She didn't particularly like this; the silence or being stuck with her older sister, but she was mum on the disliking of her walk.
Kikyo was calmly thinking over everything that Inuyasha had shared with them, no doubt, and Kagome was disgusted with her sister for thinking the hanyō's word was trustable. Kagome would sooner entrust her life to a snake than that hanyō liar. There was just no way the Mighty Inu Daiyōkai, Sesshomaru-sama was that evil, or cruel. He wasn't.
"Kagome," Kikyo finally spoke then.
"Yes?"
"For the time being I wish for you to use whatever means necessary to keep the hanyō close, do not deny him anything he should as for and entice him to stay. I want to learn more about this Sesshomaru-sama and if he is truly the same Mighty Inu Daiyōkai roaming our lands." Kikyo announced and Kagome paled at the order.
"Any means?" she whispered; mortified of what her sister was asking of her.
"Yes Kagome, become his constant companion by any means, I have research to do," Kikyo said as she walked off. Kagome stared at the ground; she had never… she was never, well, it appeared now she was literally giving herself to the demons… she wanted to cry at the idea of the hanyō being her first and probably only.
.
"Now if I were that spider, where would I go?" Inuyasha muttered to himself as he walked out of the compound grounds and into the forest. Damn the spider, now he was on the hunt for him and he had to also try to track Sesshomaru down again; and there was that little human girl to worry about…
When the hell had his life gotten so complicated!?
Inuyasha growled to himself as he began scenting the air when he heard two of the miko he had been talking to that morning. Turning his head, with his ears perked and straining he crept to the wall of the compound and poked his head over the wall to listen to what they were talking about.
His eyes widened at the conversation and then the elder left the younger alone. He stared at her as she stood there trembling and he scented the tears, his eyes narrowed on the back of the elder.
Fine, he'd play their games, but they were going to learn the price of toying with even a hanyō. His eyes narrowed on the one who was the sacrificial lamb; so to speak, and she was quivering like a doe out in the meadow. Well, he wasn't here to scare the locals or even claim them, however he probably wouldn't reject a gift presented to him if she chose to do as her sister ordered.
With that in mind he silently slipped off into the forest to hunt up the spider.
I'd apologize for the lack of Sesshomaru & Rin updates but...
I've just been having way to much fun with Sasuke & Sakura updates!
Anyways, I'm back to being good, and will resume regular updates for this; once a week probably, maybe twice, and I'll be picking up my other works too.
That's all for now folks!
Enjoy Cast Adrift! =)
