Sessh pov

Sesshomaru had been doing his utmost to keep himself occupied as he adjusted to Inuyashas presence in his castle. The pheromones from the hanyo seeped off him all the time making daily life a struggle for the usually stoic ruler. He had canceled his previous engagements with other rulers in fear of having to kill them in his own kingdom for going after his mate. He'd even had to take the measure of limiting his work staff inside the palace.

He sighed and paused as he sat at his desk. Taking in all the work he could muster to distract himself from the parading snack walking around right outside his office walls was finally starting to take its toll on the Demon and it had only been one week. He pinched the bridge of his nose alleviating the pressure build up from focusing too hard. Pushing himself away from his work he stood and made his way over to his brother's chambers.

It had been a whole week now, and Sesshomaru had had enough with His Inuyasha sleeping in the cellars while there was a completely unoccupied spot next to him in his bed. He'd planned on asking the hanyo sooner over dinner if he was ready to move to the room, but he felt a tightness in his chest when he thought of proposing the question. He had to make sure to not scare off his mate. But how could he do that with such a brat.

He smiled to himself. Though he knew that Inuyasha didn't see them as anything other than brothers for now he hoped that they would move forward with their growing relationship soon. Inuyasha was HIS brat, and he would make sure to having Inuyasha understand that soon. He reached Inuyashas chambers and sniffed the area. He could smell the sweet scent of Inuyashas upcoming heat. He took a deep breath in before heading back out to another room to check for the hanyo.

His nerves began to arise when he reached Inuyashas normal spots and couldn't seem to find him. Izayoi's room was empty, and he paced the castle a bit faster trying to find a scent leading to the hanyo.

'He wouldn't leave without reason', Sesshomaru thought as he finally reached back up to his office once more. His anger was coming out in waves as he thought about the idea that his Inuyasha was not there. His mind racing with the idea that his mate was with another, He lashed out at the desk in front of him, papers and ink flying to the floor. He could feel his demon rising as his panic seemed to get worse.

He looked out at the palace grounds. His fear melting away almost instantly as he saw the hanyo sprinting back to their home. His chest tightened again. He looked closer at the hanyo, and it hit him. A sniff of the air was enough for his demon to roar to life instantly, his senses dulling as he let his demon take control. He felt his body move with its own accord speeding down corridors he'd just walked down. He found himself back at Inuyashas room, a guard bracing himself hard against a way close by. He bared his elongated teeth at the guard and with a low rumble from the demon the guard bowed lowly and ran for an exit.

He reached the bath and saw Inuyasha huddled in the pool. He'd ripped at his clothes haphazardly throwing them wherever in a hurry. He could see the slightly toned form panting and resting against the side of the pool. He'd not registered his own movement as he found himself complete disrobed and, in the pool, along with Inuyasha.

As the first touch between them sent shock waves through Sesshomaru He knew he should stop this, He knew he should pull away from the younger body, to not give in to those firm but supple arms and legs that seemed to wrap around him as he continued his assault of his mates body. Waves of pheromones hit his senses causing his judgment to faulter more as his demon rained control in this current situation.

His body screamed to rut, to take as much as he could from his mate and give him his seed. To procreate and make an heir for his bloodline. His demon growled loudly when the image of a pregnant Inuaysha settled in his mind.

The view he was getting was amazing. He'd never taken a lover that had no experience with sex. Inuyasha face blushed several times as he felt new sensations. He could tell the younger was nervous and tried with all his might to go slow for Inuyasha.

As they finished up the room became quiet. Water sloshed back and forth slowing down from the lack of movement. Heavy panting was still echoing off the walls as Sesshomaru turned back to Inuyasha after redressing. The hanyo hadn't even attempted an argument with him as they finished and though he expected it he liked the silence. He looked at the hanyo up and down admiring the small red marks he'd left with his teeth on Inuyashas lips and neck.

Light snores filled the empty silence soon enough and Sesshomaru held back a chuckle as he lifted the younger from the tub and set about redressing him. He combed his hair neatly and poured more of the concoction his healer had supplied Inuyasha down his throat. He settled him into the large bed, and read over land agreement paperwork, He gently brushed his hand through the soft white hair beside him. He felt at peace, and when the moon was at its highest point, he laid down beside the hanyo still gently touching whatever flesh he could visibly see above their blanket. He sighed and curled around Inuyasha. He'd have hell to pay tomorrow, but he wanted to live in this moment longer. He blew out the candle next to their bed and drifted off into the best sleep he'd had in years.

Inu pov

Soft furs entangled around his body. Inuyasha curled into them further. His senses were groggy as all hell, and he huffed to himself as he tried to sit up from the bed, he'd found himself in. He couldn't remember going to bed, or much after a certain point. He recalled the heat yesterday and exploring the castle grounds. He rubbed at his eyes and sat up from the bed. He audibly gulped taking in his surroundings.

Inuyasha clambered to his feet quickly pulling the soft robes around him tighter as he hustled out of the bed. His feet contacted the stone floors, and he shivered from the contact. He didn't see the imposing figure of Sesshomaru anywhere and taking his surroundings he didn't want to stay long in this room. He rose to his feet and hissed from the pain that arose quickly from his back. Toppling to the floor he grumbled, He grabbed a sore spot he found on his right side and massaged the tense muscle trying to relieve the cramp that suddenly showed up.

"What the hell?" He loudly growled to himself. Raising himself back up on the bed he propped his elbows on the firm mattress and hoisted his legs back up to a standing position. He felt his stomach spasm and tighten. It didn't hurt like it had been, but still wasn't the most normal feeling still.

"My, what a view.. Is this for me?"

Inuyasha snapped his head to the sound of his brother's voice and blushed crimson as he realized how exposed he looked. "L-Like hell!" He stammered though he didn't move his position. He felt a writhing feeling in his stomach once more at the sound of Sesshomarus voice. He tried quashing the feeling before he turned at sat down upon the bed facing Sesshomaru. Putting his full weight on his backside wasn't smart as he felt the muscles strain again.

"I, .. apologize for my lack of care last evening. Would you accompany me to the baths?" He outstretched his hand to the younger demon and waited for Inuyashas reaction.

An even deeper blush settled its way across Inuyashas face. He pressed his hands to his face and mumbled out profanities. Sesshomaru smirked at the expression. "Did you just regain your awareness of our activities?" Sesshomaru asked. His smirk left his face and he seemed put off for a moment, before his stoic expression returned. "Did you not enjoy yourself? This Sesshomaru takes pride in his sexual performance.." He said running one hand quickly through loose strands of his own hair.

Embarrassment got the best of Inuyasha in moments like this. He knew he needed to figure out more of what was going on before he lashed out, but he couldn't help it. He felt humiliated. He stood up ignoring the pain from his ass. "Fuck off, like I could enjoy anything that came from you!" He glared at the older Inu. "Besides I didn't ask you to do that to me" He growled through his teeth. Then bared them to seem more intimidating.

"I can see that you are hurt from this, though I do blame myself for how the evening ended. Your body, your demon called out, and I answered it." Inuyasha growled lower.

" I couldn't imagine how it could have ended if you hadn't come home quickly", Sesshomaru moved in on Inuyasha quickly and engulfed Inuyasha in a light hug. He wrapped his arms around the youngers neck and breathed in Inuyashas scent. His pheromones were stronger than ever these days.

Inuyasha Swung his arms away from his body breaking the contact with Sesshomaru. His claws ripping into the fabric between them as he did so. He leaped onto the bed distancing himself before striking at the demon again. Sesshomaru tilted his weight away from the claws coming at him. Gracefully catching Inuyashas arm as he passed by him.

He pressed into inuyasha shoulder blade and held his arm back behind him. "You're already sore why make this worse" Sesshomaru whispered in Inuyashas ear. "Was earlier not enough for you?" He smirked once more knowing he was agitating him.

Anger and other emotions he didn't want to think about welled up in him as he felt Sesshomarus breath on his neck. His skin buzzed and sparked with excitement from the contact. He felt himself almost audibly groan from the feeling itself. Unknown to him he had leaned his ass out to Sesshomaru and had started gently grinding into him. His demon moving him where it felt right. He practically purred as Sesshomaru dipped his head low to Inuyashas face. His hair gathering around Inuyashas pink face. He brought his tongue down the Inuyasha mouth lightly licking the dry lips. "I cannot continue until you are ready for me again, I will not intentionally hurt you again" Sesshomaru whispered. His eyes lustful and sincere.

A loud knock was heard as the door slid open quietly. The Female healer Inuyasha had known as Hane-san had walked through the door. She looked flushed and a bit unnerved. She wore a mask like she usually had when shed came to his rooms. She bowed low and sat Inuyasha concoction on a small table by his bedside. She bowed low again and in a quiet high pitched voice said "I have upped the medications in this brew m'lord. I can feel that he will be ready very soon, I will keep a close watch on his progress and adjust if needed once more" Without another word she left the room closing the door almost urgently.

Both stepped away from each other. Inuyasha felt at a loss for words to say about all of this as he parted and felt sad to not be connected to the man standing once again before him. He hated this feeling, and it reignited his anger for the situation. He grabbed up the concoction on the table and chugged it halfway before gagging from the flavor. He'd never get used to this taste he thought distracting him from what had just happened.

"How long is this supposed to last anyway?" He sheepishly asked Sesshomaru looking down at the ground around them. "This will only last until we are mates, your demon energy is not enough to help your transition. When your mother was attacked, she had too much of your demon energy keeping her alive." Sesshomaru started, he leaned against a wall. "Your demon is sealed to me by chance, however until we are ready to do our mating ritual your body will go through these changes to get your womb ready for me"

"Ew" Was all Inuyasha said staying in his same spot. This made Sesshomaru audibly chuckle. "Indeed" he said. Inuyasha wondered why this fluttering feeling in his chest replaced the worry and fear that had crept in so quickly. He didn't like it.
