Sesshomaru's Beast

Chapter 20

I-I-I-Inuyasha!!

-------------------------------------------------------

"You will never again pick where we journey." Sesshomaru said sternly, glaring at the woman sitting across from him in the soft leather of the limo.

"Oh don't be so crabby, you know that kid with the soda didn't spill it on you on purpose, or the kid with the ice cream for that matter. Besides it was worth it look at this cute little puppy dog I won." She replied while proudly holding up the white and purple stuffed dog she had won with 500 tickets.

He glared at the dog and then turned to stare out the window.

"Well where are we going now?" She asked.

"To my domain so I may shower and change, after that I will decide on something else to occupy the rest of our day."

"Ok." She said. They pulled up in the driveway and started up to the house.

"You know you had a fun day with me." She said slyly.

"Perhaps." Was his cryptic reply. She huffed and continued walking up the mile long path to the main house.

"Well thanks anyway."

"Hn."

He punched in the code for the security system and stepped in the house.

"Go and shower as well. Just because your scent is not displeasing does not mean the rest of society is as clean as you." He pivoted on his foot and disappeared around a corner.

"Sure thing your majesty. Anything for you sir." She mumbled sarcastically. She started heading towards her room.

25 Minutes Later…

"Now I know I passed that vase at least three times, I'm going around in circles!!" She cried.

"A little lost." An amused voice called from behind her. She spun around and sighed in relief at her savior.

"It's not my fault that you decided to make your house imitate a maze. I know I took a left this time when I took a right last time and I still ended up at the same vase." She huffed.

"Then I know it's doing its job."

"What?"

"I am one the most famous beings in the world right now; it never occurred to you that people would attempt to steal from me."

"Yea, well what about that 50 digit pass code you need to get in here."

"You exaggerate, it's 27 and the more stupid ones have attempted to scale to fence, only one has ever succeeded and he got so confused in my house he found me and asked to be arrested."

"Whatever, just lead me back to my room!" She yelled annoyed.

"No need to shout darling you'll wake the neighbors." He said sarcastically. She now had his eardrums ringing.

"Just show me the way to my room."

"Follow me." He turned around and started heading back in the direction she had just come from.

Her Room

"I knew it was a right and not a left at that first gold statue!" She thought unaware she had said it out loud. Sesshomaru smiled a little at her antics.

"Hurry and shower I expect to see you in the dining hall for dinner in 20 minutes."

She stormed off.

"Who does he think he is ordering me around like he owns the place?" She mumbled to herself and then giggled.

'He does own the place.' She hopped in the tub, and sunk down in the soothing waters.

'He can wait for me, I feel like taking a nice warm bath rather than rushing for his majesty in a 30 second shower. It will take me 20 minutes to find the dining hall.' She relaxed with the jets blowing water at her.

30 Minutes Later (With Sesshomaru)

'Where is that onna?' He was annoyed. She was late. He hated when people were late. Just as he was about to get up to go and fetch her she strolled through the double doors as if there wasn't a care in the world.

"What took you so long?" He growled out.

"I was relaxing for the first time since I got here; don't get your boxers in a twist." She said.

"You do wear boxers right?" She added as an afterthought. She preferred them over briefs.

"Yes, would you like to see proof?" She blushed, he smirked. She rushed over to the seat to the left of the head.

"Well I'm hungry so sit down, shut up and eat." He shook his head and sat down in his seat. He snapped his fingers and the servants filled in all carrying delicious dishes. As soon as Sesshomaru took a bite she dug in.

That poor food didn't have a chance in hell. She devoured it like a starved lion deprived of food for weeks.

Kagome leaned back and sighed. She was clean, full and content.

Sesshomaru blinked. And then blinked again.

She had eaten well over 6 different dishes in 4 minutes. He had taken 6 bites.

At least he would never feel ashamed about his eating habits. Even in his demon form his eating wasn't as…voracious…

He placed his chopsticks down. He wasn't disgusted by the miko by any means…but he had lost his appetite.

'She must still be making up for all that lost energy.' He hoped. If she ate like that on a regular basis then she needed etiquette lessons. While he was used to her others might not adapt as well.

"Well I assume you are finished eating."

She gave a content sigh.

"The night is still young; do you want to watch a movie?"

"Hai, ok." They walked into the living room and Kagome sat down on the couch. Sesshomaru walked over to the DVD rack.

"What movie do you want to watch?"

"Something funny." She was still having nightmares about The Grudge.

"Do you understand English?" He asked.

"Hai."

"Then we will watch Norbit. I myself have not seen it yet but heard from others it was 'gust busting funny.'"

"Ok, put it in."

Sesshomaru sat down and pulled Kagome to his side. He put an arm around her waist and her head resting on his shoulder.

20 Minutes into the movie

Sesshomaru wasn't really paying attention to the movie; he was focusing more on Kagome's sweet laughter. To him the movie wasn't even really funny, but she seemed to find it hilarious.

The Norbit character had just got smacked by Respusha for suggesting that she had gained weight and again her laughter filled the large space. He was relaxed and content until the doorbell rang.

Kagome looked up in question. She didn't know he had been expecting guests. He sighed.

The Kamis just loved to mess with him and Kagome didn't they.

"Stay here I will be back shortly." She shrugged but went back to watching the movie.

He walked to the door. He was oh so tempted to kill the person on the other side.

"What do you want?" He said his voice tight with barely controlled anger. How dare this imbecile come to his territory without permission. Maybe the humans of this era were unaware but this particular person knew perfectly well the laws of demon society.

"I know you have her in there and you will allow me to see her!" He half-yelled.

"Keep your voice down. There is a reason you are not to see her. It would not do for her to find out you're here."

"Let me in Sesshomaru, or by the gods I will kill you."

"You would never accomplish such a task and I will not let you by. Leave." He snarled.

"No, not now that I finally found out something about her! She here and I will see her!" He snarled back, his eyes starting to tint red.

"Would it help any if I told you she wasn't here, and that I have no clue who you are talking about?"

"No 'cause I know you would be lying I saw her picture in the paper, sitting with you at some fancy restaurant! Let me in I can smell her scent!"

"The person in there is not the one you are searching for." He tried one last time to get him to leave without hurting him. It was taking all those centuries of self-control lessons to keep from decapitating this annoying pest right now.

"Leave!" Sesshomaru said his voice dropping to a deadly sound.

"No she's in there and you will let me pass!"

With Kagome

'What's taking him so long?' Kagome thought. His aura reeked of anger and agitation, so why didn't he just tell the person to leave?

When he didn't come back for 5 minutes she muted the volume on the T.V. to see if she could catch what was happening. Sesshomaru was angry before, now he was furious.

She could hear his voice and one that sounded oddly familiar to her arguing but couldn't quite hear what they were saying.

'Maybe, I should check things out?' She went to get up but then hesitated. It really wasn't any of her business and it's not like Sesshomaru couldn't handle himself.

"Leave!" She heard that one, and Sesshomaru sounded like he was going to kill the person on the other side of the door.

"No she's in there and you will let me pass!" The familiar voice shouted. That got her attention. Whoever it was sounded like they were looking for her. The servants had all already left for the night so she was the only she in the house.

She would see what this person wanted because clearly Sesshomaru wasn't going to let him in. He was also being awfully rude to this person and she wouldn't let Sesshomaru get away with that in her presence.

She stood and headed towards the door which luckily wasn't far from the living room.

'I wouldn't want to get lost and then have to deal with a murder because I wasn't there in time.' She hurried her pace.

When she got there she couldn't see the person because Sesshomaru body was blocking the door. All she could see was his back.

'A nice smooth back from my view.' She giggled at her perverted thoughts.

When she let out the sound all attention snapped to her.

"She's behind you let me see her!" The man called again.

"Go to your room!" Sesshomaru said sternly to her, without turning around.

'He can't order me around like this!'

"Who are you talking to Sesshomaru?" She still couldn't see and now she knew it was because Sesshomaru didn't want her to.

She racked her brain for a solution. Why wouldn't Sesshomaru let this person in? And his voice sounded so familiar like she had heard it a million times before, but for the life of her she just couldn't place it.

"No one now go to your room I will be up shortly." He turned to face her somewhat this time. He was losing his patience with the miko. She was being stubborn but now was not the right time!

Then Sesshomaru had the wind knocked out of him. With all his attention on Kagome he didn't notice the punch aimed for his gut.

'The dirty bastard.' He thought. The person pushed right passed him.

"Finally." He said. Sesshomaru was on his knees catching his breath and couldn't stop the confrontation about to happen.

'I knew I should have killed him when I opened the door.'

The stranger turned to Kagome. She blinked she knew him from somewhere. Then slowly his hair faded from black to white and little puppy ears popped up on his head. There was a bright light and when it faded Kagome would look back on a later date and know she had gone into shock.

She shrunk back and started to slowly inch towards the corner like a trapped animal.

"H-hey th-there I-Inu-Inuyasha."
