Chapter 14

Author's Note: I sadly do not own Inuyasha. But If I did we all know most of the characters would have had completely different endings Lol. I love how Cassie has been taking over and doing most of the work for this chapter. Honestly I feel like I space out for a few seconds and then wow brand new chapter :D. I love my muse. If she was corporeal I would give her a hug for her genius efforts :).

Kagome got up and moved away from the well and Inuyasha. "What are you doing here?" Kagome asked folding her arms across her chest as she noticed Inuyasha looking her over.

"I like your new look," Inuyasha said moving toward her smirking.

"Answer my question Inuyasha!" Kagome practically yelled at him. She did not want him close to her. In her opinion he didn't deserve her trust again until he earned it.

"I want you back Kagome," Inuyasha answered. "I'm sorry for what happened between us. I promise to be more understanding so please... be my mate."

Kagome was frozen in shock by Inuyasha's confession. Inuyasha took this chance to wrap his arms around her holding her close. Kagome tried to remain calm. Her heart rate was increasing and her breathing was becoming irregular.

"Inuyasha let me go," Kagome said as calmly as she could. "Now!"

He didn't want to. She felt too good. He had missed this. Inuyasha breathed in her sweet scent longing to make her his.

Kagome tried to push Inuyasha away but he was holding her too tightly. "Inuyasha I said Let. Me. Go." She enunciated louder this time. He loosened his grip and moved back enough to look into her eyes. Maintaining a hold on her waist with one hand and moving the other to caress her cheek. He couldn't hold back anymore and forcefully kissed her lips. Kagome began to struggle more, violently hitting his chest. Inuyasha didn't even flinch. Kagome attempted to scream only to have Inuyasha's tongue invade her mouth.

Kagome did the only thing she could think of and bit down on Inuyasha's tongue hard. He let out sharp hiss as he separated from her. He tasted blood. In that moment he lost control and the sound of a hand striking flesh echoed around the clearing. Kagome held her hand to her burning cheek as a roar of outrage was heard from across the field.

Sesshomaru had arrived just in time to see his brother flinch away from Kagome as she bit him. His eyes bled red as Inuyasha's hand collided with his mate's cheek. In a second Sesshomaru had Inuyasha pinned to a tree by his neck. He clawed at Sesshomaru's hand that was squeezing his throat.

"Give me one good reason why I shouldn't rip you to pieces for even considering touching my future mate!"Sesshomaru growled.

"Sesshomaru put him down he's not worth it." Kagome called. She hadn't moved. She was still cupping her cheek sure that there was a bruise developing. Sesshomaru growled once more and dropped Inuyasha before going to inspect the damage the half-breed inflicted. He would no longer acknowledge Inuyasha as his brother. Their family did not abuse women that they claimed to love.

Sesshomaru took Kagome's face in his hands gingerly. She would have a small bruise but it should heal quickly. He kissed her lightly on the cheek and then on the lips. Kagome wrapped her arms around him seeking comfort. She blushed when she realized his chest was bare. Kagome could hear his heart rate accelerating through his chest. He wrapped his arms around her holding her tightly.

Meanwhile Inuyasha had recovered and had drawn Tessaiga. "Kagome get away from him!" Inuyasha yelled. "I'm going to filet this bastard."

Sesshomaru rolled his eyes. This weak excuse for a demon dared to challenge him. He planted a passionate kiss on Kagome's lips for three reasons. First he wanted to taste her again, it had been too long. Second he didn't like the idea of the hanyo touching his woman and wanted all trace of him removed from her. Finally he really wanted to piss Inuyasha off. It worked. Inuyasha let out an angry war cry and charged his brother.

Sesshomaru scooped Kagome up into his arms and quickly deposited her at the edge of the clearing giving her one last chaste kiss before turning back to face Inuyasha. "I never thought someone who shared the genes of my father could be so suicidal," taunted Sesshomaru.

"Sesshomaru, I know he's an ass but please don't kill him."Kagome said from behind him. "You can beat him till he can't walk for a week though." Kagome said smiling. Sesshomaru didn't like that she didn't want him to kill the whelp but he was up for the challenge of breaking most of the bones in the young half breed's body... starting with his ribs. Sesshomaru moved quickly past his brother breaking three ribs on his left side in the process. Inuyasha fell to his knees gasping for breath. Sesshomaru then turned and shattered Inuyasha's femur as he stepped on his right leg.

Inuyasha's leg was bent at an odd angle. He reached out for it to gauge the damage only to have his arm pulled out of its socket and broken. He screamed out in pain. Grabbing his sword with his uninjured arm he attempted to fight off the western lord. Sesshomaru kicked the sword from his hand and crushed it under his foot.

Lifting Inuyasha from the ground by his throat Sesshomaru brought his face close to his. "If you ever come near my mate again I will break every bone in your body before I rip out your heart and present it to her. The pain you feel now will be nothing compared to what I will do to you if you threaten my woman again. Do you understand me?" Sesshomaru growled so that only Inuyasha could hear him. Inuyasha nodded against his hand. "Good." Sesshomaru said before hurling Inuyasha across the clearing and into a tree.

Sesshomaru turned and walked towards Kagome who had begun to run to him. He caught her as she leaped into his outstretched arms. She kissed him as he swung her around. He slowed and she wrapped her legs around his waist braiding her fingers into his hair and deepening the kiss.

There was no way she would be able to handle it if he lost interest in her once he returned to normal but right now she didn't care. Kagome needed this. She would worry about the consequences tomorrow. Tonight she was his and he was hers.
