Hio evry buddy. I'm back but I've been busy. This is chappie 2 out of who knows how many. I didn't intend to write this as a one time shot, but I haven't gotten any reviews so this MIGHT be the end. If you guys review I will write more and more.

Inuyasha: plz write more plz? By the way how were you busy?

Jiro: none of your business! *yells*

Inuyasha: Ooooooo you were with Jiro last night.

Me: you guys stop arguing!!!!!

Jiro: *wrapping arms around waist* He doesn't need to know about that though.

Me: I love my sick mind^_^

By the way I don't own Inuyasha or any of the characters except Kakane.

~* Chapter 2: Promise Me *~

Sesshoumaru jumped swiftly from branch to branch. Kakane was still unconscious from his attack. Her face was showing a lot of pain.

'Why am I feeling like this? She's just a miserable hanyou like my bastard brother. But if I think like this, why do I have a pain in my chest?'

All he could think about was how he had hurt her. "Damn! Why do I feel like this? Now I'm taking her back to my castle, and then what? Am I hoping she falls in love with me or something?"

Kakane was listening to his every word but she couldn't muster enough energy to open her eyes. She thought it was cute though, how he was so confused. She regained enough energy to shift her position in his arms.

As she stirred, Sesshoumaru gently landed on a branch. He had a look of worry on his face. "Dearest, are you all right? Did I hurt you?"

"No you didn't I was just a little uncomfortable, so I shifted." Her face was now nuzzled against his chest and the crook of his arm. Her hands were around his neck. He was carrying her bridal style but acted as if he were carrying a child.

Her deep green eyes were focused on his and his golden orbs were on her.

"Thank you Sesshy." She closed her eyes softly. "Sesshy?" He looked down at her with surprise.

"Oh *yawn* I'm sorry." She snuggled closer to him and started nodding off to sleep.

"It's all right, call me anything you want." Sesshoumaru mentally shook himself when he realized what he had just said.

'Damn, why is this happening. I haven't acted this stupid since I was 18!' When a youkai turns 18 their instincts tell them to take a mate. Sesshoumaru never did. Like Inuyasha, Sesshoumaru had the blood of a youkai. Unlike Inuyasha, his was all youkai, which means he has more control over his instincts.

He leapt off the branch and made his way back to his castle once again. When they arrived, he carried her to one of the lavishly decorated rooms. He laid her down on the overstuffed king sized bed. 'Damn, I would love to make her mine! Hanyou or not.'

As he was about to leave, she started shaking in the bed. She was obviously sick with an infection now. He never knew if he could forgive himself for this. He walked out of the room and found Jaken.

"Jaken, do you know any medical skills?"

"Yes milord. May I ask why?"

"I brought a hanyou here and she is injured. She has an infection in the slash across her chest. Go attend to her now."

"Yes milord." Jaken bowed low to his master and turned to leave.

"Oh and Jaken."

"Yes milord?"

"Don't get smart with her. If you harm her or offend her I will kill you."

"Yes milord." Jaken ran into the room where the injured hanyou lay and began his work on her immediately. When he was finished, he walked out into the hall and found a very worried Sesshoumaru, pacing back and forth.

"She will be fine milord. You may go in with her now." Jaken bowed low and walked into the kitchen.

Sesshoumaru walked into the room and looked at the white bandages all around her chest. He sat down on the bed next to her.

Her eyes fluttered open. They were deep green and full of longing. She sat up only to be pushed down gently by Sesshoumaru. "You need your rest."

"I'm fine, really. Why did you save my life? You were the one who attacked me."

"I don't know why I did it. I just saw something in your eyes that told me too."

"Oh. Why did you call me dearest when you were carrying me to the castle?"

"Ah, I'm sorry I just...um...I don't know why."

Kakane turned her head on the pillow so she wasn't facing Sesshoumaru. "I feel like I have to tell you something. I don't know if you'd be willing to hear it though."

'Oh god' Sesshoumaru thought he was going to die. She was going to ask him to take her back to the others. Either that or that she loved him too. If he couldn't control himself... there could be some problems. " Maybe you should wait until your better to tell me then."

"Oh, but I am better! I'm not an ordinary hanyou. I am the daughter of an Inu youkai and a powerful miko. No not Inuyasha and Kagome." She sat up and asked Sesshoumaru to excuse her. She took a plush robe from one of the hooks and went into the hot-spring room that was connected to the room she was in.

She changed and then went back into the room that Sesshoumaru was in. She sat down next to him.

'Damn, she is so sexy. I want her now. What the hell am I thinking?' Sesshoumaru mentally shook himself again and looked into Kakane's smoky eyes. They were filled with desire. Desire for him.

"Well I wanted you to know that I haven't felt this way about anyone, ever before. I know that I look like I've been with every youkai and hanyou around, but I haven't. I want you to know that Sesshoumaru. You probably don't feel the same about me though, right?"

As she looked at Sesshoumaru with a sad/pouty/sexy/curious look, he felt like he couldn't hold back anymore. "I want to claim you as my mate!" Sesshoumaru blushed at the sudden out burst of his feelings. He got up to leave and was half way to the door when Kakane spoke up. "Come back and sit with me, Please?"

He turned and looked at her. The moon's pale blue rays were beaming down upon her and she looked like an angel. She had the most beautiful hair he'd ever seen. It was long and fine. Wait long doesn't describe it. It was extravagant. It went down to the floor and had about 5 inches that dragged on the floor. Now, it wasn't up in a bun like when he first saw her. It was down and allowed to flow freely.

He walked over to one of the plush chairs and motioned for her to sit in the one across his. She shook her head and walked over and sat on his lap. She rested her head on his shoulder. Her knees were up to her chest and her robe was falling open. "Even though we just met, I know there is something about you that tells me I love you. So aishiteru, Sesshoumaru."

"I love you too. May I ask you a question?"

"Yes, what is it my darling?"

Sesshoumaru looked shocked at first, then warmed up to the idea of her pet names for him. "May I brush your hair for you?"

"Yes you may."

Sesshoumaru got up and grabbed a brush. When he sat back down, Kakane spread his legs apart and sat between them. She pulled her hair up and laid it on his lap. He took in the scent of her hair. It was Lavender, Vanilla, and Jasmine.

He brushed it out making sure every strand of hair was as smooth as silk. She turned her head and caught his lips in a light kiss before turning away. But Sesshoumaru was not satisfied with a small kiss. He wanted more. He turned her head back around and kissed her fully on the lips.

Kakane's thoughts were racing through her head. She wanted him so badly but did not know how to tell him. She deepened the kiss, pulling him to her. Their bodies formed perfectly into one-another. She felt Sesshoumaru's hands glide around her waist. She felt as he stood up with her and turned her body around to face him. He held her tightly against his body, as if afraid she would leave if he let go. He pulled away from their kiss. Her body begged for him to press his against hers once again. She loved the warmth and the love it generated. She looked into his eyes. He looked into hers. Both were clouded with lust and smokey with desire for one another.

"I have another question," Sesshoumaru said, never taking his eyes off hers.

"Anything darling. Anything you desire, I will give to you. You need only ask."

It was now or never for Sesshoumaru as he looked into his loves deep green eyes. "May I claim you as my mate?" As he continued to look into her eyes, He could see glimpses of doubt. He became worried that she would say no.

"Now I have a question for you."

"Yes my love?"

"Promise me something." Tears were welling up in her eyes. One tear slid down the cheek of her flawless face. Sesshoumaru took her face in his hands and wiped the tear away with his thumb. "Will you love me forever? Will you protect me as long as I live?" She was crying now. Her fragile body was shaking against his. "Will you stay with me forever and never leave my side? Will you always be there for me?" The tears were flowing freely from her eyes. A warm breeze was blowing through the room from an open window. As Sesshoumaru looked at her, her beauty stunned him. Her long flowing hair was gently swaying in the wind. The tears were dripping off her face. Her hands were on his strong chest.

"Promise me." She whispered into his robes. "Just promise me this one thing." Her body was shaking from her sobs. "Promise me, Sesshoumaru. Promise me!" She was crying violently, and holding on to him as if her life depended on it. He moved his strong hands around her and held her tightly.

She had not heard an answer yet and was growing worried. She wanted this more than anything in the world. She wanted to be with Sesshoumaru. She wanted to bear his pups. She looked up into his eyes. He leaned over and set his head on her shoulder.

"Yes." Was all he said but it was enough. The breeze surrounded them and to them, the room was gone. She was still crying but not so violently. "Does the same go for my question?" Sesshoumaru whispered, his head still on her shoulder.

"Of course, my darling. Nothing would make me happier."

The lights were dimmed and the moon was allowed access to their ceremony. Sesshoumaru lifted Kakane off the ground and gently laid her down in the soft bed. He wiped the tears from her eyes.

She pulled off her robe from under the covers. Sesshoumaru quickly undressed and got into bed next to her. She smiled seductively and purred. The tips of her dog ears were bent down.

Sesshoumaru smiled and scooted closer to her he licked the side of her cheek then traced her lips with his tongue.

He then seized her lips in a deep, passionate kiss. She gasped for air and Sesshoumaru seized the moment. He rolled her onto her back and straddled her with his legs. She broke the kiss and whispered something in his ear.

"You will be my first so be gentle. You are my first.... And only." She then captured his lips again. He entered her and when he reached her maidenhead, he whispered something in her ear.

"This will hurt a little, but only for a moment." When she nodded he continued and broke through her maidenhead. The tears welled in her eyes and she gasped. She was glad though. She belonged to him and he belonged to her, for all eternity. After a while he moved his mouth down to where her neck and shoulder connected. He then sunk his fangs into her pale skin.

When he released, the blood began to drip from the wound. He lapped at it until the mark scarred over. After it had scarred he spilled his seed into her womb. She was growing tired and so was he. The moon was setting and the sun was rising.

Kakane stood up from the bed and shot a seductive glance at Sesshoumaru before walking naked into the hot spring room. She lowered herself into the hot water and was soon joined by Sesshoumaru.

As they cuddled in the water, Rin came running into the room. "Sesshoumaru-sama! Rin couldn't find you last night. Rin wanted you to read her a book before bed. Oooo, who's that?" Rin was very excited. She may have a mommy at last.

"This is your new mommy, Rin. Her name is Kakane." Sesshoumaru smiled at the little girl he had adopted as his daughter. "Now that you have a mommy you should call me daddy. Is that all right with you?"

"Yeah, Rin has a mommy and daddy!"
