Miko Hime: No turning Back

His eyes widened in surprise when she squirmed in his lap and laughed. Intrigued by her response he poked her side again. To his delight Kagome wiggled again and laughed a little harder. Before Kagome knew what happened her new master was poking both of her sides without mercy.

"Don't! That tickles!" Kagome giggled as she tried to escape his clutches.

As she continued to laugh hysterically she pushed against his tight grip. Her laughter warmed the air around them creating a light and happy atmosphere. Seeing her happy smile and grey eyes fill with tears brought a smile to the Western Lord's eyes. He found her failed attempts to escape extremely humorous. Before he could stop himself a warm chuckle passed his lips. This light hearted moment seemed to ease the tension between master and servant. It oddly allowed Kagome to feel comfortable in his presence and not fear his claws or fangs. They continued their play until Kagome was straddling his lap. She stopped laughing and squirming when she realized just how close their faces were. Suddenly she wasn't ticklish anymore and lost herself in his amber eyes. As he stared back into hers the once light and happy atmosphere switched to a newer more heated one.

The proximity of their bodies and the intimate position they found themselves in made it harder to ignore their attraction. Being this close together there was no denying how hard he was for her. He was straining against his fundoshi making his already large erection press intimately against her. As the temperatures of their skin warmed under their clothing so did the temperature between them. Having been tickled for the past couple of minutes Kagome was already sporting a soft blush to her cheeks and was slightly out of breath. Now, with her hands resting against his hard chest and his groin pressing firmly between her open thighs the light tint dusting her nose darkened to an adorable rosy red. It took everything in the Western Lord's power to not kiss her senseless right then in there. Seeing that one of the flowers on her head had come loose he reached up to remove it.

"May I?"The Western Lord asked as he looked over the array of hair combs.

"Hai..." Kagome nodded shyly. As he carefully undid the intricate braid the various hair sticks and flower combs from her hair began to come loose. She sighed in relief when the tension on her scalp was gone.

"Better?" The western Lord asked as he set the last hair stick on the ground before gently massaging her tender scalp.

"Mm hm." Kagome nodded as she leaned back into his palm.

Her heart fluttered in her chest when her lord lifted one of her long silky strands to his nose. The contented purr that rolled from deep in his chest made her stomach flutter with butterflies. He looked drunk off of her scent when he closed his eyes and nuzzled into its soft texture. She didn't understand how something so simple as him smelling her hair could make her feel this way. When he cracked open his eyes to look at her she thought she'd stop breathing all together. The amber color appeared glazed over and distant. Almost as if he was lost in a world of fog. The lids of his eyes were hooded as well only further displaying his drunken state of mind. How could she, a weak human wench, bewitch a demon to this degree?

Her mouth ran dry when she noticed his heated gaze lower to focus on her lips. The intensity of his gaze had her unconsciously wetting their dry texture. She gasped when he slowly leaned forward and softly brushed his nose against hers. At first she was confused why he was bumping her nose back and forth with her. It was odd and completely unexpected. As he continued to rub his nose tenderly along hers she soon found herself closing her eyes and leaning into his touch with each pass. It surprised her how much she liked rubbing her nose with his. She wasn't entirely sure what the intimate gesture meant exactly but figured it meant something important in the inu language.

"What does that mean?" Kagome asked gently when he began to run his nose along her jaw.

"It is the inu way of kissing." The Western Lord whispered as he pulled back to look into her dreamy eyes.

"You stole a kiss from me?" Kagome half joked as she lost herself in his amber gaze once again.

"Hai, little onna." The western a Lord said as he hovered his mouth over hers. "And I'm about to steal another."

As he softly pressed his lips against hers she felt him encircle her tiny waist and pull her closer to him. She was surprised by how wonderful it felt to be kissed. Just the simple brushing of lips as his breath mingled with hers had her eyes fluttering closed and coming back for more. It was obvious by her clumsy kissing that she was new at this but he didn't seem to mind. If anything, her innocent responses and tiny whimpers only further turned him on. As his kisses deepened she gripped the front of his kimono for support. She marveled at the hard plains of his upper body as a low purr like growl rolled up from deep inside his chest. His manly muscles and husky vibrations made her feminine core feel all warm and fuzzy. It wasn't a bad feeling. In fact, it felt really good. The pleasure was just new and unfamiliar. Wanting the intimate feeling to keep building she threaded her fingers at the nape of his neck and kissed him back a little harder.

She gasped when he growled hungrily against her mouth and nipped his fangs on her lower lip. The sudden sting and swipe of his tongue along her lower lip sent a shiver down her spine. At first she was hesitant and unsure what to do when he invaded her mouth with his tongue but quickly grew to like it when he began stroking it sensually against hers. It took her a minute to join in the intimate dance. Once she got the swing of it however she eagerly reciprocated the gesture by curling hers lingeringly along the roof of his mouth. She preened with feminine pride when she felt him shiver and purr in pleasure. Wanting to see his control come undone she did it again, but this time she traced her tongue along one of his fangs and sucked his lower lip into her mouth. Considering her inexperience she never would have guessed that she'd manage to pull such a dark heady moan from his throat.

His needy response gave her the courage to push past her awkwardness and continue to explore. As they kissed their hands began to wonder. Being the shy, inexperienced virgin she was, she was unsure where to put her hands. She thought running her fingers over his chest and arms was a good place to start. She did manage to slip her fingers past the collar of his kimono but was too afraid to go past that point. Thankfully he took mercy on her by letting her move at her own pace. When his hands slipped under her kimono and firmly cupped her backside however she gasped and jumped back in surprise. The feeling of his large hands touching her in such a way had sent a bolt of electricity straight into her womanhood. Having never been touched in such a way or felt such a strong hormonal response before she was shocked by the unexpected feeling.

"Sorry!" Kagome blushed as she nibbled on her swollen lower lip in shame. "I... I've never... I don't know how... I mean..."

"Shh... it's alright." The Western Lord soothed as he reluctantly pulled his hands out from under her kimono and began to gently untied the obi around her waist. "There's nothing to be afraid of. I promised I wouldn't hurt you remember?"

"Hm." Kagome nodded as she tried to steady her trembling fingers by running them over his shoulders.

Her breath hitched in her throat when he parted the first layer of her kimono. Although her breasts were still covered by her clothing the expensive silks had slid down to expose her lean shoulders and the soft tissue between her breasts. It unnerved her how quiet he'd gotten and how focused his eyes were on her person. It was as if he were grading her figure, determining if she passed the test or not. She couldn't tell by his schooled expression if he was pleased or not by her scores. As she waited for her test results her heart pounded anxiously in her chest. Was he disappointed? Did he no longer think she was beautiful? Normally she would have cared less what someone thought about her appearance, but considering her life depended on his approval she hoped he still thought so. She shivered when he gently ran one knuckle between the valley of her cleavage to pull aside her remaining silk with his claw.

Having been held too long in suspense the softness of his touch had been a welcomed surprise. The heat of his skin brushing against hers had her releasing a breath she didn't realize she'd been holding. As he slowly exposed more and more of her skin she sat nervously on his lap. She tried to not fidget or squirm when the kimono slipped off her shoulders to rest at her elbows. Now with nothing to hide her body from his view he could examine the swell of her hips, her tiny waist and heavy breasts at his leisure. The only thing he couldn't see from this view was her round backside and thatch of black curls hidden underneath the pooled silks at her hips. Being so exposed like this had her fighting off every virginal instinct she had to cover herself. Although she was nothing more than another whore in the Western Lord's eyes, to her he would be the equivalent of her husband. According to him, she wouldn't be touched by anyone else.

As her Lord Husband and Master it was his right to look upon her nakedness for as long as he wanted. That didn't make her feel any less uncomfortable however by his staring. She knew she shouldn't let his provocative behavior bother her. This was after all his first time looking at her. It was his right to enjoy her nakedness. She was going to have to get used to exposing her like this to him on a regular basis. As his eyes wondered over her exposed body she could feel the heat of her blush spreading down her front. She worried that he'd be annoyed by the flustered pink hugh tainting her pale skin. As the cool air continued to caress her bare flesh, goosebumps formed down her arms and legs and her nipples puckered to a hard point. She gulped when he pushed away the remaining silks from around her waist. With all of her kimono layers gone she was only left in her makeup and white tabi socks.

Her eyes widened with momentary panic when he placed a hand on her shoulder and gently pushed her back onto the futon. Apparently he needed to see more of her womanhood to satisfy his inspection. As he carefully spread her legs into a wider position she tried to steady her shaky breath. Kami this was embarrassing! She whimpered when he ran his calloused hands down her inner thighs. The rough, calloused texture of his palms felt good against her heated skin. Needing to see what he was doing she braced herself up on her elbows to watch. As his intense gaze looked over the triangle of her sex, the sudden rush of cool air against her exposed core had her eyes fluttering shut. She didn't understand why him looking at her made her womanhood ache so badly. He wasn't even doing anything and she was already a hot mess. If he didn't hurry up his inspection soon she might finish her release without him!

It was embarrassing knowing she was getting turned on by this. She hadn't even lost her virginity yet and she was already behaving like an experienced woman. He had to be disgusted by her the sight of her damp curls. She could feel her juices seeping from her aching center and trickling down her inner thigh. Her scandalous behavior was most definitely not the behavior of an innocent virgin. The thought of him being disgusted by her lack of control made her eyes suddenly sting with tears and a lump to form in her throat. She hated how weak and vulnerable she felt. She couldn't help that she was so attracted to him or control what her body was doing because of him. Her family would be so disappointed in her if she let them down now. She could feel her inner coil preparing to snap. It was only a matter of time before she lost all control and came right there. By the looks of it, tonight might end sooner than expected.
