(A review from chapter 19.)

I sighed and felt the back of my eyes burn. "If you knew what lurked in my heart, you would have ran like Kagome had. Deshiree," I paused and took a deep breath, "Deshiree near got the chance to."

I slumped down in my seat and felt a tear roll down my cheek. I quickly wiped it away and gripped the stirring wheel. I suddenly smelt salt in the air and it wasn't from me. I looked over and saw that the princess was leaning against the back of the seat and had her head down. Her hair made a curtain around her face and wouldn't allow me to see her face.

"I'm sorry I ran. I didn't mean to. I was scared and confused," the princess whispered in a shaky voice that didn't sound like her own, "I would have died the way she did if I could. That's what people do when they love someone."

I stared at her and felt my heart race. "Kagome?" I whispered.

I watched with hope burying itself in my heart before I could throw up barriers. I sobbed when she looked up into my eyes and I saw my Kagome neat the surface of the this person that was controlling her body. I watched as her bottom lip trembled as more tears streamed from her eyes. I instantly leaned forward and caught that lip and kissed it until she stopped crying and trembling.

"God…I thought I lost you," I said with a soft laugh of joy that sounded more like a laugh then a sob.

Chapter Twenty

Kagome sobbed and shook her head. "God, InuYasha. Her head is very dark and lonely," she said with a sigh followed by a laugh.

I laughed and nodded. "I bet it is. She's a very...curious chick," I said with my heart pounding with the thrill of having my Kagome in my arms at last, "god, I love you so much, Kagome."

Kagome smiled and kissed me again. "I know, but I don't have much time. InuYasha. You have to stay away from me," Kagome suddenly said with a wild look in her perfect chocolate eyes.

I frowned and leaned back a bit. "What?" I asked, not really sure what she meant.

She shook her head and sighed. "I want you to stay away from me and this thing that had control over my body," she said as she pulled away from me and scooted to the other side of the truck, "do you understand, InuYasha?" she asked as she hugged her self.

"Yeah, I understand, but I want to know why," I said heatedly. What the hell is going on? I just got her back and she's telling me to fuck off.

She winced and dug her nails into her arms. "InuYasha, our fates were entwined. This was predestinied thousands of years ago. Don't you get it. She's here to kill you," Kagome said as he eyes started to have a blue hue to them.

I stared at her and didn't know what to say. We have Entwined Fates? What is that supposed to mean? And this Princess is supposed to kill me? I don't get it?

"Its a game, InuYasha. A game to see if a demon from hell can kill the one he loves in defense of himself. They made you kill...Deshiree, InuYasha," Kagome sobbed as her eyes turned back to a perfect brown.

My eyes hardened and I straightened up. Angry tears rushed to my eyes. "I don't understand, Kagome. What are you trying to tell me? Who the hell are they and what is this thing about making me kill Deshiree?" I growled. I was confused and I didn't like where this conversation was going.

Kagome bowed her head and sobbed. "Your father is a full demon, right?" she asked, not looking up at him as she asked.

"Yes. How did you know that? I never told you-" I started to say.

"She told me. She knew how your mother died and how your father did to. They even planned it years before they were even created. These demons don't unstand love, InuYasha and they want to know how far it drives a person to madness or in some cases death," she explained.

My ears were pressed against my head as I listened. My chest felt like a rubber band was wrapped tightly around it. My head wanted to refuse to listen, but my heart sucked up every word she ushered.

"So we're stuck in a game with psycotic demons that run the show?" I asked staring at Kagome in bewilderment.

She nodded. "Deshiree was threatening to ruin they're plans so they had you kill her. I'm sorry, InuYasha, but I have to kill you," she said as she raised her head, "she won't cease to live with me until your blood is on my hands. thats why I want you to stay away from me."

"Kagome...I don't care if you're going to kill me. I won't leave you alone to fight this battle alone," I said as I scooted over and touched her cheeks, "even if it costs me my life. At least i died knowing that I was loved and killed by the hand of the woman that stole my shattered heart and mended it back together."

I watched as Kagome sobbed uncontrollably. "Oh, InuYasha. I love you," she breathed and threw her arms around me and crushed her lips against mine.

I felt a tear roll down my cheek before she pulled away. I opened my eyes and stared into blue-green eyes and sighed. I scooted away from the confused Princess and sat in my own seat. I looked away from her as i started the truck. i was taking her to my place. Screw her parents.

"Change of plans, princess," I said as i pulled away from the curb and headed towards my place, "we're going to my place."
