Chapter 13: What Have You Gotten Yourself Into?
The four demons sprinted, not even breaking a sweat. The castle was just in reach. Searching around, they could not smell him but they could sense his powerful aura. They followed it to one of the many private gardens on the castle grounds. They were not expecting they scene before them. Lord Sesshoumaru was in the grass on top of something. It look and smelt like a young female. The female demon was trying very hard to hold back the hiss that threatened to escape her throat. Sesshoumaru and Kya were so wrapped up in what they were doing , that a first they didn't notice the other presence in the garden.
Ogita was overwhelmed with disbelief when the scent of the female reached his nose. 'That smell, it's exactly like Kya! No it can't be her she was comming to kill him not to mate with him. ' Ogita hoped desperately that his senses were lying to him. But when Sesshoumaru lifted his head and turned it in their direction, Ogita knew his senses had not failed him. Underneath the Western lord he saw the flushed face of the woman he longed for.
I took all his control not to attack the other lord , as he hoisted himself off the woman Ogita planned for years to make his. Sesshoumaru held out a hand to help Kya up from off the ground. She looked even more beautiful than he remembered , if that was possible. He almost growled as Sesshoumaru took her hand and led her over to them.
Kuma was the first to speak " Greetings Sesshoumaru-sama." Kuma bowed respectfully .
"Kuma , old friend let us drop the formalities." said Sesshoumaru in a slightly aloof but friendly manner.
" Of course Sesshoumaru." he said. Kuma look at the woman who's hand was locked with Sesshoumaru. " So Sesshoumaru, this must be the lass you have chosen as your mate. She is quite beautiful. tell me fair maiden, what is your name?"
"My name is Kyame sir but, you may call me Kya." she said.
Ogita nearly dropped dead from shock. he could not believe this was happening. How could fate be so cruel?
"What a lovely name.Well my dear, I am Lord Kuma, and this is Lord Neko and his sister Lady Yuma and that is Lord Ogita." he said
"I'm pleased to meet all of you." Kya answered politely
It was Neko who spoke next . "Well my dear, are you ready for your trials tomorrow?"
"Trials? What do you mean?" a confused look crossed Kya's face as she looked towards Sesshoumaru who was refusing to look at her.
" You did not tell her of the trials Sesshoumaru?" Sesshoumaru glared at Neko. If looks could kill Neko would be dead 100 times over.
Neko just ignored Sesshoumaru and continued. " Once you agreed to become his mate, you accepted the challenge of the lords. Each lord will test you in battel, intellect, and magic. Then one other female who has already passed these tests will challenge you for the right to be Sesshoumaru's mate."
"If I do not pass these tests then what happens?" she asked getting increasingly angry with Sesshoumaru for not telling he of this.
"Then we kill you." Neko said simply
"Oh I see. Well then I must retire. I must go meditate ." she said dropping Sesshoumaru's hand like it burned her.
Sesshoumaru turned to go after but was stopped by the death glare he received that clearly said ' Don't you dare follow me.'
She was angry that Sesshoumaru had kept this from her. When was he planning to tell her? The day of the tests. She could imagine him saying " Oh by the way to really be my mate you have to take these tests and if you don't pass you die." She tried to clear her mind of all anger. Right now she needed to concentrate on passing all the tests. She could worry about Sesshoumaru later. R ight now she just needed to make sure she did not die.
She sighed and said to herself "Kya what have you gotten yourself into?"
