It's a Small World

Chapter 9: Seduction

I stared at him, eyes wide, watching the dark figure get closer and closer to me.

I struggled with all my might but with no avail, my strength could not break the ropes that bound me.

"You got away the first time, but I'm not letting you go again." He said menacingly and with that he picked me up over his shoulder and started carrying me off.

I struggled and tried to scream, but he just laughed and gripped me harder; hard enough to leave bruises.

"Sesshoumaru is not going to find you sweetie." He said. "I masked your scent..he's going to have to guess where Naraku is taking you." He laughed darkly.

More tears welled up in my eyes once again as I let my body go limp in his grasp. Pain was shooting up and down my spine from the awkward position and a terrible headache was beginning to form in my head.

'Oh kami-sama..please..' I begged silently in my mind.

***

Once inside one of the many houses in residential Tokyo, he put me down.

I looked around, taking in the sights of his mansion.

The walls were all white, as was the carpet. There were colorful furnishings that were bright and contrasted with the whiteness of it all. There was a little black here and there, but not much of it.

My first thoughts were that he was a homosexual, but if he were, he wouldn't be doing this.

I frowned as I noticed him looking me up and down.

My eyes were pink and puffy from all the tears that I had shed, my hair was tangled from the wind, my clothes a little torn and dirty from the alley floor, and my wrists and ankles rubbed red, raw, and bleeding from the ropes that bound me.

I was not pretty.

"We need to clean you up." He said happily.

Another tear ran down my face as I silently cried.

"Don't cry, you're going to enjoy this night." He said smiling lecherously. "But not before I clean you up and dress you appropriately."

I drew in a shaky breath. I could only guess what he meant by this.

He picked me up again and carried me to a giant bathroom complete with a Jacuzzi and twin sinks.

He began filling up the Jacuzzi with water and poured a bubble bath.

The aroma of lilacs wafted toward me as my eyes widened in horror.

He was going to bathe me!

He stood me up and began to take off my clothes.

I struggled violently but he held me still and continued with his actions.

I cried out but the gag was still in my mouth.

He looked at me, ravishing my bare body with his eyes.

'This is wrong! Oh god, this is wrong!' I thought as I shut my eyes tight.

'This is a dream, this is a dream..' I repeated the phrase over and over in my mind.

I felt him pick me up again and place me in the bath.

The warm water caressed my skin and body like a warm glove.

My mind numbed over and soon all I could smell were the heavy scent of the perfumed bubbles.

I was barely aware of what he was doing, but it didn't matter.

The intoxicating scent of the lilacs was distracting me.

My eyes slid shut and I sunk into the water, relaxing with a drunken pleasure unbeknownst to me.

~*~

I ran frantically up and down the streets of Tokyo.

Her scent had disappeared once she was at the alley.

'Kagome, where are you!?' I thought as my brow furrowed with worry.

I looked around me, trying to pick up her scent.

My nose was assaulted with the scents of the city.

Hot dogs, smelly people, car exhaust, more smelly people..but not the almost heavenly scent of lavender..that shampoo she used all the time..

I just noticed that people were staring at me. After all I was standing in an alley, staring about me with an almost an intoxicated way at the wall.

I shook my head and readied myself for a long night.

'I'm going to find you Kagome..whether I have to walk down every single street in Tokyo just to look for you scent..I will..' I thought determinedly.

I began to walk at a fast pace that didn't seem unnatural to anyone walking by.

I glanced at a clock on a street lamp. It read 7:12.

I already lost an hour doing nothing.

I mentally kicked myself and got going down the street, a bit faster than before.

'Don't worry Kagome..I'm coming..'

~*~

I watched Naraku lazily through the large mirror was he brushed my hair and curled it.

The smell of lilacs was still strongly floating about the room and was giving me a slight headache.

He had dressed me after he dried me off from the bath.

I was wearing one of those kimonos that only whores wear.

It was very tight and very, _very_ revealing.

I smiled at him, drunk in the scent, as he started applying make up to my face.

Foundation.

Mascara.

Eye liner.

Eye shadow.

Lip stick.

Lip liner.

Blush.

Powder.

There was a tiny voice in the back of my mind that was yelling at me.

'This is wrong! Snap out of it Kagome!' it screamed.

'Lilacs..oh..smells so good..' I thought back, trying to make it stop.

'Think about what you're doing..think about Sesshou..' The voice said.

'Sesshou..' I repeated.

Something about that name stopped me from mentally talking back to it.

'Sesshoumaru..the man you love..he's coming for you Kagome..stop it now!' the voice screamed.

My world shattered around me like a mirror being broken at that exact moment.

Memories flashed through my mind like a rolling film.

Sesshoumaru kissing Kikyou.

It impacted me more than all of the other memories put together.

Pain.

Once more.

No.

No more.

I closed my eyes and felt my eyelids flicker up and open as I became aware of what was going on around me.

'Maybe I should give myself to Naraku. He'll love me better than Sesshoumaru ever will..' I thought bitterly.

Naraku put both hands on my bare shoulders and leaned over me so his face was next to mine.

He admired me in the mirror.

My hair was swept back into an intricate bun that he made with a curling iron and many pins. He left out my bangs to frame my face.

I just stared at myself in shock.

"You're so beautiful babe." He whispered in my. He stopped talking and pulled my earlobe between my teeth and started sucking on it playfully.

"Let's go.." He whispered in my ear.

'Let go of him..he's history..' I thought as I allowed myself to stand up and be led around his mansion until we reached a room with a bed and handcuffs on the four bedposts.

I gulped as he led me to the bed. He was standing behind me kissing my neck and shoulders while letting his hands roam up and down my body.

"Let's play baby.." He said picking me up and putting me on the bed.

He then took all my limbs and handcuffed them to the bedposts. I noticed they all used the same key, and I watched him in horror as he slipped them down his pants.

"Come get it babe." He whispered.

He crawled up onto the bed and trailed his hands up my thighs, and continuing up my body until they reached my face.

He cupped my face with his hands and began to kiss me all over my face.

He took his time with his kisses; making sure that every one of them was "seductive" in his words.

'Is this what you want?' that voice asked me.

'..yes..' I thought back at it.

'But I know this isn't right; and I know this isn't what I really want.' I thought sadly. 'But there's nothing more I can do to stop it..'

~*~

I jogged frantically down the 189th street in Tokyo.

I had already surpassed the city and now I was in residential areas, desperately wanting to find her scent.

I glanced at the sky.

The moon was out, peeking through a little hole in the cloudy sky.

Other wispy clouds were passing it by very quickly, making it flicker like candlelight.

It must have been around 11:30 - 12 at night.

I continued jogging down the street and I suddenly stopped.

There was definitely something different about the scent coming from a particular house not far ahead of me.

I ran to it and stopped in front of it.

There was an open window and a faint scent of lilacs was drifting out of it.

I got closer.

Something about this house beckoned me with an invisible finger.

I stood right outside the door and sniffed it.

Nothing.

But I went around to the back.

Kagome's scent was all around the backyard.

Adrenaline rushed in my veins.

"Gotcha." I whispered.

And with that said, I quietly opened the door and walked into the house to rescue the woman I loved.

TBC.
