Ayame walked over and sat next to InuYasha as Sango dragged the injured monk back into the camp site. Kagome walked over to Koga blushing, and kissed his lips shyly before asking, "Do you think we can start courting?"

Koga responded, "We are courting Kagome I assumed you understood this?" He was concerned that she didn't know what courting meant he most certainly didn't want to have the talk with her. He also didn't want to ask any of the other demons to explain courting rituals to her.

Kagome became frustrated and grabbed Koga kissing his lips once he responded to her kiss she ran her tongue along his lips causing him to allow her entrance into his mouth. Koga was in heaven he eagerly responded to her forwardness and realized that she had asked him for more intimate interactions. When Kagome pulled away her face was very red Koga grinned, and said, "No worries love we can do more of that." He most definitely couldn't wait for more of what she had given him.

Inu no Taisho approached Sarah, and said, "Perhaps we started on the wrong foot I'd like to get to know you, and be friends what do you think?" He wasn't planning on taking no for an answer he was going to find a way to keep her around him if necessary until they became friends.

Sarah saw no reason to deny his request so she said, "Alright we can become friends but just so you know I am not going to be mating anyone unless I love them soul mate or not." She wanted him to know that this was just a friendship and nothing else she found it was best to be clear with the opposite sex.

Inu no Taisho nodded his head replying, "That's fair enough all I ask is that you at least give me a chance." He was hopeful that with time she'd grow to love him. He earnestly hoped that soon they would be sharing affection like Kagome and Koga were he most definitely couldn't wait.

Sarah nodded her head, of course, she wasn't going to let him know that she found him to be quite hot looking. She found her mind wondering on thoughts of things she could do with that sexy body of his. Even so, she wanted to love and be loved by the person who was to be her mate or husband. Sarah worried for a moment if InuYasha was his son that meant that he had experience in sex, and she didn't although she had read books on the subject she had never gotten any experience.

Inu no Taisho returned to sitting next to the guys as he watches Sarah return to the where the girls were. He sighed this was going to take longer than he wanted it to. He groaned as he thought of all the cold showers, and relief he'd have to seek from himself. Inu no Taisho didn't want to seek out a female to sate his lust on; he knew as a human woman that Sarah wouldn't understand if he did. Although he did wonder why it was that she carried no scent other than the smell of peaches that all the girls seem to carry as well. He sat near the monk mainly because he was the only other male that didn't have a woman in his arms.

Miroku grinned saying, "I don't blame you she looks nice based on the look of her backside I'd say her bottom is much like Sango's nice, and firm." He, of course, couldn't help but to notice woman's bottoms they were his weakness. But then again the female body was his true weakness and the rare moments he got to enjoy it he relished.

Inu no Taisho growled out, "You will not touch what is mine!" He most definitely didn't like the fact the monk had looked, but the thought that he touched her made his blood boil. He fought his beasts urge to make an example of the Monk, but he knew that Sarah wouldn't understand his need to protect his claim.

Miroku replied, "I would never go after a taken woman I do have my morals." He did have some honor despite his afflicted hand he had never touched a married woman. He always wondered how he managed to avoid the women who were spoken for.

Inu no Taisho glared at him saying, "Keep it that way or you will be one dead monk never having achieved your goal of getting a woman to bear your child." His beast had claimed her and so had he; she was going to be his it was just a matter of when that would be.

Sango's face grew with concern as she asked Sarah, "Do you think Miroku is alright over there Inu no Taisho looks like he could kill him." She was highly concerned the man looked like he could kill the Monk at any moment.

Sarah looked at her, and then the Monk saying, "I'm sure Miroku is smart enough to avoid getting killed by a demon."

Sango asks, "Can we go over there I'd feel better if we were I know Inu no Taisho wouldn't hurt him with you there." She was worried about him she couldn't understand why she cared for him, but she did.

Sarah nodded she didn't want Sango to stress out with worry over the Monk she obviously cared for him. So the two of them headed over, and sat between the guys where Sarah asked, "What's going on here?" She looked at the two of them like they were both children because at the moment she felt one if not both were acting that way.

Inu no Taisho replied, "Nothing just reminding the Monk to keep his hands off of you." He was working hard at settling his beast down as he knew she'd be mad if he attacked the monk in anger she wasn't a demon and wouldn't understand his claim especially since they only agreed to be friends.

Sarah glared at him saying, "I can handle myself besides he's never once had his hands on me Sango, and Kagome make sure of that. Besides I can protect myself from the Monk if needed, I don't need your protection from him."

Inu no Taisho's beast riled up more at the display of dominance from his alpha bitch. He quickly managed to regain control reminding his beast stating that she was only asserting that she could protect herself against the monk. He moved closer to her, and gently explained, "I am an Inu demon we tend to be overprotective of our perspective mates. Even when we have agreed to friendship for the future mates benefit."

Sarah nodded, and after a while, they all went to sleep for the night Inu no Taisho sat near her on guard to make sure no harm came to her during the evening.
