DISCLAIMER: I do not own Inuyasha nor it's characters; but I like the anime. I hope you enjoy. In a battle against Naraku Kagome shattered the jewel AGAIN. Now her friend Ren has joined her. Ren develops feelings for a feudal Japan man, and learns that she posses a power. (Rated M for smut).

Chapter Fourteen:

We were both blushing pretty hard when Inuyasha piped up. "If you two are gonna get together go takethe guest house"! Miroku kind of chuckled, and was about to say something when his eyes seemed to melt over my figure with lust and care. Was he seriously considering Inuyasha's joke!? I gulped nervously and watched him.

I lead Miroku into my room to talk. "Miroku, I like you... a lot, but I'm afraid of getting hurt", I confessed to him. "I won't hurt you", he told me as his lips began tickling my neck. Oh god, that felt so good. My knees tightened together as my head tilted back for more. "That's not what I mean", I protested. Now he pulled away, and his eyes seemed frustrated and sad. Then he sighed. "I'm sorry", he told me.

"Sorry? For what"? "For moving so fast", he began to pace the small floor of my room in Keade's house. "Its just that... you're the first woman since Sango that has made me feel alive and like a hero worth having"; he said. I scooted to the egde of my bed and grabbed his hand. "Miroku? ", his sad eyes looked into mine. "You are MY hero", I told him. "No I'm a womanizer who claims to be with the light and watches dog breath do all the real wor"-before he could get another word out I had pulled him over me and kissed him.

Miroku pressed his weight to my body as he kissed back heatedly. I pulled my face away to breathe. "I ddon't want to do this just yet", I panted in his ear. He looked into my eyes and smirked. "What!?", I croaked softly. "You're a virgin", he said trying not to chuckle. I got up from under him to hide my pouting face. "Yes .. ", I mumbled.

That was when he began pulling doors and drawers open pulling my things out. While he pulled things out, I put them into my pack.

"It turns out that I'll be staying in the guest house after all", I informed everyone. "I'm not going out there tonight so you"- "Miroku is taking me there. You don't have to", I interrupted Inuyasha. It looked like Inuyasha was going to protest when Kagome layed her hand on his shoulder. "Just keep her safe", she said.
