Chapter 2
Falien walks past him and heads to her room. "Did I say you could leave?" She stops dead in her tracks and gulps. "No." "Then why did you walk away?" He walks over to her. She gulps again feeling him behind her. "I..." As he stands behind her he smells something in the air. He smirks realizing what it is. *She's in heat. This might be interesting.* He places a hand on her shoulder and she quickly pulls away turning to face him. He looks at her as he starts to get upset. "Now why did you pull away?" She gulps. "G.. gomen nasai but please don't touch or hurt me." He looks at her and starts to growl. "I can touch you if I so wish. You live in my castle and you belong to me." She looks at him starting to get scared then quickly she turns and starts to run down the hall. He smirks watching her run. "Good run away it will be fun to chase but you are mine when I get you." He chuckles evilly. She gasps hearing what he said as she runs as fast as she can. *Oh no what am I going to do. If he catches me he'll hurt me for sure.* Tears start to stream to her face as she runs out the door and into the area of the hot springs and quickly hides behind a rock in the back.
He smirks as he follows her to the hot springs. "Well now where did you go girl? You had best show yourself. If you show yourself I will go a bit more lenient on you than if you try to remain hidden." She takes a big gulp and steps out from behind the rock. Within seconds he is upon her slamming her hard to the ground. "It was not wise to run girl." She looks at him with tears in her eyes and gulps. "Gomen nasai. Please don't hurt me." Her body quivers below him. Her fear makes her smell more potent to him. He looks at her then smacks her hard across the face. "You are too strong willed. I shall break you." She looks at him in horror. "Please don't. I'll behave just don't hurt me." He slaps her across the face again harder. "Don't speak unless I say you can girl." She starts to cry harder as she nods in reply. He smirks. "Very good." He brings one of his claws up to her face and slowly slices her skin making her bleed. She looks up at him in fear. He smirks then leans in and laps at the blood coming from the cut he made. "Mmm very tasty." She starts to squirm as she tries to get out from under him. "Try all you like but it will do you no good. You are mine thus I can do as I please with you." He looks down at the jewel shards and rips them from her neck throwing them across the room. "Now there is no way you can hurt me like you did with my hanyou brother." She just looks at him in utter fear. "Hmm now lets see what your body looks like under these clothes." Quickly he shreds her clothes from her leaving her bare naked in front of him. "Hmm not bad for a human." His eyes gaze over her very slowly. "If I release you will you run and risk much more pain or stay and take what I give you?" She looks at him and thinks for a second then speaks. "I .. I will stay just please don't hurt me anymore." "Very good." He pulls back and stands looking down at her. "Now tell me have you ever been with anyone before?" "N..no never." "Good. Nor will you be with anyone but me ever. Is that understood?" "H.. Hai."
He looks at her then slowly removes the clothes he is wearing and approaches her fully nude. Her eyes gaze upon his body as he approaches. *Oh my he is gorgeous. If he wasn't so mean...* She looses her train of thought as she feels his lips upon hers. She blinks then thinks *Well I might as well try to enjoy this as best as I can.* She kisses him back allowing his tongue to invade her mouth. *Mmm he tastes good.* She closes her eyes enjoying the kiss and the taste of him. He pulls back from the kiss smirking at her. She opens her eyes and looks up at him. "So you liked that huh?" She nods her head. He growls then slaps her hard across the face. He smirks again then slaps her across the face even harder as he slashes at her skin making it bleed once again. Tears well up in her eyes.
He leans down and licks the blood from the cuts on her face as he moves his other hand and slices the other side of her face. He continues to slice at her body and lick up the blood. She looks up at him in fear as she tries to pull out from under him. Feeling her trying to escape he pulls her back to him slapping her across the face again. "You little bitch. You are not going anywhere." Knowing that she is going to be hurt more she does the only thing she can think of and moves her knee quickly. She puts all of her strength into kneeing him hard in the crotch. He looks at her in pain then grabs his crotch. "You little bitch. You are going to pay for that." Quickly she stands and runs for the door grabbing the jewel on the ground before she leaves the area.
While he is in immense pain on the floor she runs to her room and grabs the quickest piece of clothing she can get. She dresses as fast as she can and runs out of the house towards the mountains. She runs as fast as her legs can carry her never looking back. *I have to get away from him but Rin I shall return for you one day.* Sesshoumaru growls from the pain that she had caused. *How could that wench have known to do that? She will pay greatly for this.* He gets up and walks to her room. Entering her room expecting to find her he growls in furry. *She left. Let her run I will catch her sooner than she thinks but I think I'll let her think she has gotten away for now.* He grins evilly then walks to his room. *I will catch her tomorrow that is if she even survives the night.*
As she runs through the forest faster than she ever had thought that she could she finally stops and looks around. *It looks like I'm out of the western lands. But now where am I?* She looks around and spots a nice hot spring. *Well it looks like I'm safe for now I guess I shall relax for a bit then start off again.* Looking around quickly she finds the place deserted. She removes her dress then places the jewel shards in the back of her neck and steps into the hot water. As she sinks into the water her body starts to relax quickly. "Wow this feels so good." She lays her head back against the edge and starts to think about what had just happened. Thinking about what he had almost done and what he had done she starts to cry softly. Not to far away while hunting a wolf youkai hears someone crying softly and goes to see what is going on.
As he approaches the hot spring he sees a girl emerged with in. He smirks and approaches the water. "Well now what do we have here?" Hearing a voice she panics and moves away from the ledge. She looks up at him and sighs happy that it is not Sesshoumaru but still in shock at whom this is. "Wh...Who are you and what do you want?" "The names Kouga and I came here cuz I hard someone crying and I thought it was someone I knew. Now tell me what you are doing in my spring." "Oh gomen nasai I didn't know it belonged to anyone. I had needed a break and this looked like a good place to rest for a few min." "A break?" He looks at her in confusion. "Yes I have been running for a long time trying to.... Umm... Look I just needed to rest a few minuets I will be on my way." "What were you running from girl?" She thinks about what she was running from and starts to cry again. "I..I was running from...from Sesshoumaru." "Stop your bawling. Why would you be running from him? The Sesshoumaru I have heard about hates humans and kills them quite quickly." "No it's not that it's...." Tears come faster as she tries to put it out of her mind. Not caring that she is naked she gets out of the water and heads for her clothes. As she passes him, Kouga he sees the slices in her body and on her face from claws. "What happened to you?" She stops and looks at him. "This is what I was running from. This is what Sesshoumaru did to me." He blinks looking at her then shakes his head. *Stupid dog. Dogs like him should be locked up tight.* He walks over to her dress and picks it up handing it to her. "Here put your clothes on. He won't be to far off I presume. By the way how did you get away from him?" "Umm.. I kneed him in the crotch. It was the only way I could think of to get away." He looks at her in shock. "Yeah that will do it for sure. So where will you go now?" "Umm.. I guess I could go and try to finish this." She pulls out the Shikon Jewel shards from behind her hair. Kouga looks at her. "Where did you get so much of the jewel?" "Well the first five pieces I got before I came here and the others I found on my journey. Also I can tell that you have one in each of your legs right now." "What how can you tell that? I thought only Kagome could." He looks at her unbelieving. "Well your legs are seeming to glow and I know that only the jewel shards can do that." She sighs softly then pulls her dress over her head. "Well then would you mind helping me out? There is a jewel shard in the forest can you find it for me?" "Umm sure I can try." She looks about the forest and finally spots something shinning in a bush nearby. "Its over there." She points to the spot. He looks at her then walks over and picks up the jewel. *Well now that was easy. At least I found the blasted thing. Now what to do about the girl.* He looks at her then sniffs the air. *What is that smell? Wait now I recognize it. She is in heat. Hmm this could be interesting but wait that is probably why Sesshoumaru had done what he had done poor girl.* "So like I said before what are you going to do? He will soon catch you know that right?" "Umm.." "Well for the price of two of those shards I will allow you to stay at my den with my clan if you like." She looks at him and ponders. *Hmm should I give up a couple shards and be safe from Sesshoumaru or keep the shards and face Sesshoumaru. Man I dont know what to do.* "Well what's it going to be?" "Umm.. Can you really keep me safe from Sesshoumaru?" "Yes in my den you will be safe." "Alright I will give you two shards." She reaches up and pulls off two shards and hands them to him. "Here they are." He takes the shards and smiles then jams them into his arms. Quickly he grabs her around the waist and runs faster than the wind. She squeals a little as he grabs her then stops. She looks around her as they speed through the mountains area. All of a sudden he stops and two wolf demons appear. "Hey it's Kouga." "Hey Kouga welcome back." "Thanks guys it's great to be back." He keeps tight hold of her as she looks about. He carries her inside the main den and gently tosses her onto a huge pile of soft grass like hay. He then turns and stares at his fellow wolves and demons. "No one is to touch or harm her and if I find out any have you will pay. Also make sure to keep Sesshoumaru away from her and if you spot him heading towards here come find me immediately. Is this understood?" "Yes Kouga." He turns back around to her. "You may roam around but stay with in these grounds don't wander off ok." She nods her head and looks about at all the wolf demons and wolves. The rest of the pack just look at her then go back to what they were doing before.
She looks up at Kouga. "Umm. Kouga where will I be sleeping?" "Where you are at with me. The den isn't very big but it keeps us all happy and the waterfall keeps us hidden." "Oh. Ok. I think I am going to take a nap I'm quite tired from all my running." "Very well." He turns and walks off. She looks around again at everyone and gulps. *God I hope they don't try and eat me while I sleep.* She moves around on the grass and lays down in the far back part of the area away from everyone and starts to fall asleep. As she is about to fall asleep a young wolf cub approaches and sniffs her then lays down next to her. She looks at the cub then softly runs her hand down his back before falling deep into sleep.
After finishing his hunting Kouga returns to the den and walks back to his sleeping area. As he approaches he sees the wolf cub sleeping next to her and smiles. "Well now ain't that something Spike. The cub likes her who would have thought." "Yeah, right before she fell asleep the cub walked up to her and laid down. No one knows why. The cub just fell asleep as he laid next to her." "Hmm.." He looks at the cub and calls it. "And why were you laying next to her?" The cub answers back in it's own way of talking telling him that she seemed nice but was a bit uneasy so he thought that he would keep her company and that he hopes he didn't do wrong. Kouga nods to the cub. "Very well you may go back and sleep next to her if you like." The cub walks back over and lies next to her again going back to sleep. Kouga walks onto the grassy bed and lies down next to her and the cub. He then looks at her sleeping and smiles. *You are something aren't you.* He closes his eyes and falls deep into sleep.
As the morning breaks Sesshoumaru awakens. *Well I think I have given her enough time to put up a good chase.* "Jaken!" Quickly Jaken enters Sesshoumaru's room. "Jaken you are to take care of Rin and keep her inside today. She is not to leave the castle and if she asks about Falien tell her we are away on business and will return later." "Hai Lord Sesshoumaru." The toad leaves the room as Sesshoumaru dresses himself and heads out into the forest. He follows Falien's trail leading him to the Spring she had stopped at and finds that her trail is gone and so is the other sent he had picked up. *Damn it now how could she have disappeared without a trace? Something is not right here and who's smell is that?* He growls in disgust and he goes back to his lands and tries to find her. *She is going to pay when I find her.*
Back at Kouga's den Falien awakens and looks about. Next to her she finds the cub still sleeping and one of Kouga's arm under her head as the other is wrapped around her waist. *What in the world? How did his arms get there?* She yawns softly then carefully move herself from his grasp she stands making sure not to awaken him or the cub and heads out of the den. Upon exiting the den she looks over the surroundings and then heads down the side path of the waterfall to the bottom. Around her she notices the few awake wolves and youkai. They all look at her then go back to their business. *Wow this place is beautiful in the morning. I guess I'll go and wash my face clean.* She walks over to the spring and wets her face down wiping away her sleepers and waking her up completely. She sits down on the soft grass by the spring and relaxes. While she is at the spring Kouga awakens and looks around. *Now where did she go to?* He gets up and follows her sent outside of the den. Near the water he spots her and walks down over to her. "So here you are." "Yeah I just woke up a few minuets ago and was cleaning my face up a bit. It is so nice here, so peaceful." "Yeah I know that is why we set up the den here and the water fall keeps us safe for the most part." All of a sudden one of the wolf demons approaches Kouga. "Hey Kouga news about Sesshoumaru." "What is it?" "Well he found the spot where you found the girl and left there in disgust because he couldn't smell her sent anymore." "Well that is good to hear. So is that all?" "Hai that's all we know Kouga but we'll tell you if anything comes up." "All right now get back to your post." "Hai Kouga." The demon turns and returns to his post. "Well that is great news." "Hai indeed it is. So what are you going to do now that you are safe from Sesshoumaru?" "Well if you don't mind I would like to stay here." "No I don't mind at all and you are welcome to stay here with me as long as you like." He smirks and grins at his comment. "So what are you grinning at and what do you mean by with you?" "Oh nothing. So are you hungry?" "Hai I'm famished." "All right I'll be back soon with some food." He then turns and runs off. *Wow he is fast but I still wonder what he meant by what he said. Oh well.*
A little after he leaves to get some food the little cub comes walking out of the den and walks over to Falien. The cub nuzzles his head against her arm to get her attention. She looks down at the cub and smiles. "Oh hello little guy. Arigatou for keeping me warm last night." The cub looks at her then licks her hand. "Aww your sweet." She picks up the cub and places him on her lap as she gently starts to pet his soft back. The cub curls up on her lap enjoying her petting. As Kouga returns from getting some food he finds Falien with the cub on her lap and smiles. "Well he seems to be found of you." "Hai it seems so and he is so cute. What is his name?" "He has no name as of yet. The only ones we really give names to are the youkai wolves. But you may name him if you like." "Alright. How about Logan?" The cub looks at her funny. "Alright I guess not." She chuckles. "Well I can't think of a name right now but when I do I'll see how you like it." The cub licks her in the face softly. Kouga gives the cub a funny look. "So how would you like your food?" "Umm.. I guess medium rare." "Alright I'll have it ready in a bit." "Great." He smiles at her then goes off to cook the food. The cub seeing, as he's not getting any attention he starts to wag his tail. "Oh are you getting jellious now?" She smiles down at the cub and looks over at Kouga cooking the meat. *I wonder why he is being so nice to me.* Her eyes watch him carefully. *Well he is very cute.* While cooking Kouga notices that she is watching him and smiles. *Well now why is she staring at me. It's not like I don't mind. Hmm maybe she is starting to warm up to me. But that cub is not going to be sleeping on my bed again tonight that is for sure.*
He finishes cooking the meat and brings her a huge slab over. "Here you are I hope its alright." She takes the meat and bites into it and chews it good. "Mmm it's delicious Arigatou." "Your welcome." He looks down at the cub and picks him up. "Your coming with me we need to talk cub." The cub looks at Falien. "You better not be mean to him Kouga." "No worries. I am just going to talk with him." "Alright then." He walks off with the cub in his arms. She looks at him then goes back to eating. After finishing her food she looks about and wonders what she can do sense she is getting board. After having told the cub his place Kouga walks back over to Falien and sits down near her. "So what do you plan on doing today?" "No clue. What is there that I can do?" "What ever you like. You can rest, go swimming in the stream, relax in the hot spring, and I think we have some books up in the den if you wish to read." "Oh ok I guess I'll go do some reading and I'll see you later." "Alright." She stands and heads up to the den to find the books. As she walks away Kouga watches her. Another wolf demon walks up to Kouga. "Well it seems you are starting to like her huh Kouga? What about Kagome?" "Hai I guess I am. What do you mean what about Kagome?" "Well we all thought that you were in love with her." "Well I'm not ok? Falien is so much better than Kagome. Plus Kagome is in utter love with that albino runt of a dog turd Inuyasha. So why waste my time on her when I can have Falien and trust me I will have her as my mate very soon. I just have to get her to trust me a bit more. After what Sesshoumaru did to her it will take some time." "What did he do to her?" He growls thinking about what happened to her. "That asshole of a mutt tried to rape and torture her into submission. When I found her that night she had slash marks all over her body from his claws." "Aww man poor girl. But she will be yours we all know that. We have watched her and the way she looks at you. We all can tell she likes you Kouga." "That's good and plus she has the spirit to be alpha female." "Indeed she does. Well good luck and I will keep the cub out of your bed from now on." "Make sure of that." Kouga turns and walks off. *Man he has got it bad.* The youkai chuckles softly then walks back over to his post.
Later that day as Sesshoumaru returns to his castle Rin runs up to him. "Where is Falien?" "She has left us Rin. Never speak of her again in my presence is that understood?" Tears well up in her eyes and she runs off. "What happened to her Lord Sesshoumaru?" "That is none of your concern. Now leave my sight." He growls and walks off to his room. Jaken just stares at him. Over at the bone eaters well we find Kagome and Inuyasha talking. "Well I'm off for now Inuyasha I have a huge test to take but I will be back in three days." "Fine just fine leave me. We have to get those shards back." "Hai I know Inuyasha but I have to go now see you in three days." "Feh." She jumps into the well and vanishes. "Damn her for loosing those shards." He turns and walks off pissed.
As the days pass by slowly we find Falien where she has been most of the time in the den of the wolf demons reading what little books there are to read. As she awakens from a good night's rest again she finds her head resting on Kouga's arm and him fast asleep. *How is it that when I go to sleep my head is on the ground but when I awaken my head is on his arm?* She looks at his face as he sleeps and smiles. *He looks so cute when he sleeps.* She gently runs her hand over his face smiling. She yawns and stands up slowly. "Well I think I'll go clean up then have something to eat." As she is about to walk away a strong arm grabs her by the waist and brings her back down to the ground. "What the heck? Why did you do that Kouga?" "I don't want you to go. Stay here a little longer with me." She signs and chuckles softly then relaxes and lies back down. He pulls her up against his chest tightly as if not wanting her to ever leave. He nuzzles his head against her back. "Hey that tickles a bit." She starts to giggle softly. He places a soft kiss upon her skin behind her neck. "So what have you got planned today?" "Well I actually would like to go back to my time for a bit if that's ok?" "Aww why do you have to go?" "Well I need to close out the sale on my house and I need to get some new clothes and other accessories." He lets out a sad sigh. She smirks. "Well if you like you can come too." "Seriously? You mean it?" "Hai it would be cool. Plus I'll need help caring my things back." "All right then so when do we leave?" "Now if you like." Great. Lets get going then. When will we be returning?" "Well most likely tonight or by tomorrow." "Ok. Hey spike come here." Spike walks over to where they are at. "Hai Kouga?" "Spike I will be leaving for a day or so. I need you to keep things in order here alright?" "Sure thing Kouga." "Also I need a couple others to stay by the well but to keep hidden don't let anyone know they are there. We will be bringing some supplies back with us." "Sure Kouga no problem." "Alright lets go Falien." He stands and helps her to her feet and they walk out of the den. "Here get on my back it will be faster that way." "Ok." She gets on his back and they quickly head to the well at speeds faster than the wind. As they reach the well they sport Inuyasha and Kagome coming towards the well. "Well let's hurry up and get on the other side. Grab my hand Kouga." He grabs her hand and they jump into the well.
As they reach the bottom of the well she climbs on his back and he jumps out of the well into a small building. He looks around in confusion. "It's ok we aren't in the past anymore we are in my time." "Oh ok. Well lead the way sense you know where you are going." "Ok." She smiles to him and grabs his hand and they walk out of the well house quickly so that none see them and head out to the street. They make their way back to her house and she unlocks the door. "Come on in." "This world is so strange." "Hai I guess it would be for you." She smiles and pulls him into the house. "Well this is where I was living." "Very interesting." She walks down the hall and into the living room. Upon entering she listens to her messages on her machine. "Oh cool some one has bought my house all I have to do is sign the papers. Well I guess I best start packing my things so that we may get back to your time." "Alright. So what can I do to help?" "Umm.. Lets see. Well you can hold the bags while I put things in them." "Ok." She turns and looks at him. "Hey why are you being so nice to me?" "Well..." He turns away from her. "Please tell me." He takes a deep breath and turns back around. "Well it's because I like you allot and I want you to be my mate." She looks at him in shock. "Umm.." She turns and heads down the hall towards her room. Her face bright red. "Hey what did I say? I told you the truth. Get back here." She walks into her room and grabs a huge duffel bag and starts to put lots of different clothes inside of it. He follows her and grabs her by the arm pulling her to him. He places a clawed finger under her chin making her look up at him. "Now tell me what is wrong with what I said." "Umm.. Well it's just that. Umm.." "Tell me." He stares deep into her eyes. "I like you also Kouga it's just I don't know how to answer your question at this time. Just give me some time to think about it ok?" "Very well if that is what you feel you need." He smiles then gently places a soft kiss on her lips. She blinks and kisses him back as she blushes a bit then pulls away from the kiss. "Alright I need to get these things packed." "Ok." He holds her duffel open as she places more clothes into the bag. "How much clothes do you need?" "Lots. Well that should be enough clothes. But I will need to stop at the store and pick up some hair cleaning products and other necessities. Plus I'm going to buy some food that I like to eat." He just watches her grab things and place them into the duffel. "Alright now time for shopping. If you like you can stay here I won't be long." "Alright hurry back." She grabs her wallet and her purse and heads out the door. He watches her leave then goes and sits down on her bed and waits for her return.
After an hour of shopping she returns with around 30 bags of items such as food and hair products plus much more. As she walks in the door Kouga just looks at all the things she has. "Jeez that is allot of things. Here let me help you." He goes and grabs most of the things. "Here follow me I need to pack all of this up." He follows her to her room and she shows him which duffel to put the items in. After sorting and packing the items she marks the duffels as to their contents. "Well I think I have everything are you ready to go?" "Hai. Here let me carry the bags." "Alright." She smiles and before leaving she signs the papers and instructs the seller as to where to put her belongings. Both of them with all the duffel bags leave her house and head back to the well. When they reach the well they quickly move past those that are on the grounds and jump into the well.
As they reach the other side of the well the two other wolf demons help them out with all the duffels. "Wow Kouga she sure did bring allot." "Hai but she plans on stay here for a very long time. Now grab some bags you guys and take them back to the den and don't stop at all." "Hai Kouga." They each grab half of the bags and race back to the den. Kouga grabs Falien and places her on his back and runs back to the den. As they reach the den they enter and set up the bags near their sleeping area. "Wow it's night time already. This day went by so quickly." "Hai it did." The other demon wolves start to go through her bags looking at all the odd things. "Hey stop that I had those packed just right." She goes over and zips up the bags. "Now stay out or no treats tomorrow." The others ears perk and they go back to their own area's. She smiles and chuckles. "Now that was interesting. They listened to me." Kouga walks up behind her wrapping his arms around her waist. "Of course they do." "And why is that?" "Because in time you will be my mate and alpha female here." She blushes at what he had said. "But I am not a wolf silly." "Well I can change that my pet." "Oh is that so?" He growls softly as he speaks into her ear. "Yes that is so." She gets goosebumps from how he said that. He nuzzles his head against hers. She turns around into his arms and looks up at him. "Why is it that you want me for a mate?" "Because you are different, better, and very strong willed. Plus I have fallen for you dear girl." "Oh is that so." "Hai it is." He leans down and kisses her deeply on the lips. "When you are ready my dear I will claim you as my mate but I will not force it upon you. You must be willing because I don't want to see you unhappy." She blushes softly and snuggles into his body sighing happily.
That night Kouga lays down and pulls her down to lay close to him her head again resting on his arm as he wraps his other arm around her. She snuggles in close to his body for warmth. "It is starting to get cold during the night." "Yes I know that is why I am keeping you close to bee so I can keep you warm." She smiles and relaxes. He nuzzles his head against hers. "Good night my dear." "Night Kouga." She yawns softly and closes her eyes falling asleep. *My how you have changed me Falien. But one thing is for sure I do love you and I don't plan on loosing you to anyone. Soon very soon I will make you my mate and a wolf Youkai like myself.* He snuggles in and falls deep into sleep. As the morning wakes Kouga opens his eyes and smiles seeing her still next to him. He looks at her and moves a hair away from her face. "Morning brings out such beauty in you." He kisses her lightly on the cheek. Her eyes softly open as she looks at him. "Did you sleep well?" "Hai it was great. Your arm is so comfy and your body kept me warm all night long. Arigatou." She turns her body into him and kisses him lightly on the lips. He smiles then deepens the kiss. She closes her eyes enjoying his kiss. Slowly he pulls back so that she can breathe. "Wow." "Hai that's what I say." He licks his lips. "Mmm you taste like strawberries." She blushes. "Your silly." He chuckles softly. She snuggles in close to his body not wanting to get up.
A/N: Well I hope that you enjoyed the story thus far. So what do you think Falien is going to do about her and Kouga and her feeling towards him? What about Sesshoumaru? Well I'm not sure how this will turn out. But we all will have to wait and see. Oh and please review. If you have any comments please don't hesitate to tell me I need all the input that I can get. If you think anything is wrong or if you think something could be better please tell me. Thanks.
Falien walks past him and heads to her room. "Did I say you could leave?" She stops dead in her tracks and gulps. "No." "Then why did you walk away?" He walks over to her. She gulps again feeling him behind her. "I..." As he stands behind her he smells something in the air. He smirks realizing what it is. *She's in heat. This might be interesting.* He places a hand on her shoulder and she quickly pulls away turning to face him. He looks at her as he starts to get upset. "Now why did you pull away?" She gulps. "G.. gomen nasai but please don't touch or hurt me." He looks at her and starts to growl. "I can touch you if I so wish. You live in my castle and you belong to me." She looks at him starting to get scared then quickly she turns and starts to run down the hall. He smirks watching her run. "Good run away it will be fun to chase but you are mine when I get you." He chuckles evilly. She gasps hearing what he said as she runs as fast as she can. *Oh no what am I going to do. If he catches me he'll hurt me for sure.* Tears start to stream to her face as she runs out the door and into the area of the hot springs and quickly hides behind a rock in the back.
He smirks as he follows her to the hot springs. "Well now where did you go girl? You had best show yourself. If you show yourself I will go a bit more lenient on you than if you try to remain hidden." She takes a big gulp and steps out from behind the rock. Within seconds he is upon her slamming her hard to the ground. "It was not wise to run girl." She looks at him with tears in her eyes and gulps. "Gomen nasai. Please don't hurt me." Her body quivers below him. Her fear makes her smell more potent to him. He looks at her then smacks her hard across the face. "You are too strong willed. I shall break you." She looks at him in horror. "Please don't. I'll behave just don't hurt me." He slaps her across the face again harder. "Don't speak unless I say you can girl." She starts to cry harder as she nods in reply. He smirks. "Very good." He brings one of his claws up to her face and slowly slices her skin making her bleed. She looks up at him in fear. He smirks then leans in and laps at the blood coming from the cut he made. "Mmm very tasty." She starts to squirm as she tries to get out from under him. "Try all you like but it will do you no good. You are mine thus I can do as I please with you." He looks down at the jewel shards and rips them from her neck throwing them across the room. "Now there is no way you can hurt me like you did with my hanyou brother." She just looks at him in utter fear. "Hmm now lets see what your body looks like under these clothes." Quickly he shreds her clothes from her leaving her bare naked in front of him. "Hmm not bad for a human." His eyes gaze over her very slowly. "If I release you will you run and risk much more pain or stay and take what I give you?" She looks at him and thinks for a second then speaks. "I .. I will stay just please don't hurt me anymore." "Very good." He pulls back and stands looking down at her. "Now tell me have you ever been with anyone before?" "N..no never." "Good. Nor will you be with anyone but me ever. Is that understood?" "H.. Hai."
He looks at her then slowly removes the clothes he is wearing and approaches her fully nude. Her eyes gaze upon his body as he approaches. *Oh my he is gorgeous. If he wasn't so mean...* She looses her train of thought as she feels his lips upon hers. She blinks then thinks *Well I might as well try to enjoy this as best as I can.* She kisses him back allowing his tongue to invade her mouth. *Mmm he tastes good.* She closes her eyes enjoying the kiss and the taste of him. He pulls back from the kiss smirking at her. She opens her eyes and looks up at him. "So you liked that huh?" She nods her head. He growls then slaps her hard across the face. He smirks again then slaps her across the face even harder as he slashes at her skin making it bleed once again. Tears well up in her eyes.
He leans down and licks the blood from the cuts on her face as he moves his other hand and slices the other side of her face. He continues to slice at her body and lick up the blood. She looks up at him in fear as she tries to pull out from under him. Feeling her trying to escape he pulls her back to him slapping her across the face again. "You little bitch. You are not going anywhere." Knowing that she is going to be hurt more she does the only thing she can think of and moves her knee quickly. She puts all of her strength into kneeing him hard in the crotch. He looks at her in pain then grabs his crotch. "You little bitch. You are going to pay for that." Quickly she stands and runs for the door grabbing the jewel on the ground before she leaves the area.
While he is in immense pain on the floor she runs to her room and grabs the quickest piece of clothing she can get. She dresses as fast as she can and runs out of the house towards the mountains. She runs as fast as her legs can carry her never looking back. *I have to get away from him but Rin I shall return for you one day.* Sesshoumaru growls from the pain that she had caused. *How could that wench have known to do that? She will pay greatly for this.* He gets up and walks to her room. Entering her room expecting to find her he growls in furry. *She left. Let her run I will catch her sooner than she thinks but I think I'll let her think she has gotten away for now.* He grins evilly then walks to his room. *I will catch her tomorrow that is if she even survives the night.*
As she runs through the forest faster than she ever had thought that she could she finally stops and looks around. *It looks like I'm out of the western lands. But now where am I?* She looks around and spots a nice hot spring. *Well it looks like I'm safe for now I guess I shall relax for a bit then start off again.* Looking around quickly she finds the place deserted. She removes her dress then places the jewel shards in the back of her neck and steps into the hot water. As she sinks into the water her body starts to relax quickly. "Wow this feels so good." She lays her head back against the edge and starts to think about what had just happened. Thinking about what he had almost done and what he had done she starts to cry softly. Not to far away while hunting a wolf youkai hears someone crying softly and goes to see what is going on.
As he approaches the hot spring he sees a girl emerged with in. He smirks and approaches the water. "Well now what do we have here?" Hearing a voice she panics and moves away from the ledge. She looks up at him and sighs happy that it is not Sesshoumaru but still in shock at whom this is. "Wh...Who are you and what do you want?" "The names Kouga and I came here cuz I hard someone crying and I thought it was someone I knew. Now tell me what you are doing in my spring." "Oh gomen nasai I didn't know it belonged to anyone. I had needed a break and this looked like a good place to rest for a few min." "A break?" He looks at her in confusion. "Yes I have been running for a long time trying to.... Umm... Look I just needed to rest a few minuets I will be on my way." "What were you running from girl?" She thinks about what she was running from and starts to cry again. "I..I was running from...from Sesshoumaru." "Stop your bawling. Why would you be running from him? The Sesshoumaru I have heard about hates humans and kills them quite quickly." "No it's not that it's...." Tears come faster as she tries to put it out of her mind. Not caring that she is naked she gets out of the water and heads for her clothes. As she passes him, Kouga he sees the slices in her body and on her face from claws. "What happened to you?" She stops and looks at him. "This is what I was running from. This is what Sesshoumaru did to me." He blinks looking at her then shakes his head. *Stupid dog. Dogs like him should be locked up tight.* He walks over to her dress and picks it up handing it to her. "Here put your clothes on. He won't be to far off I presume. By the way how did you get away from him?" "Umm.. I kneed him in the crotch. It was the only way I could think of to get away." He looks at her in shock. "Yeah that will do it for sure. So where will you go now?" "Umm.. I guess I could go and try to finish this." She pulls out the Shikon Jewel shards from behind her hair. Kouga looks at her. "Where did you get so much of the jewel?" "Well the first five pieces I got before I came here and the others I found on my journey. Also I can tell that you have one in each of your legs right now." "What how can you tell that? I thought only Kagome could." He looks at her unbelieving. "Well your legs are seeming to glow and I know that only the jewel shards can do that." She sighs softly then pulls her dress over her head. "Well then would you mind helping me out? There is a jewel shard in the forest can you find it for me?" "Umm sure I can try." She looks about the forest and finally spots something shinning in a bush nearby. "Its over there." She points to the spot. He looks at her then walks over and picks up the jewel. *Well now that was easy. At least I found the blasted thing. Now what to do about the girl.* He looks at her then sniffs the air. *What is that smell? Wait now I recognize it. She is in heat. Hmm this could be interesting but wait that is probably why Sesshoumaru had done what he had done poor girl.* "So like I said before what are you going to do? He will soon catch you know that right?" "Umm.." "Well for the price of two of those shards I will allow you to stay at my den with my clan if you like." She looks at him and ponders. *Hmm should I give up a couple shards and be safe from Sesshoumaru or keep the shards and face Sesshoumaru. Man I dont know what to do.* "Well what's it going to be?" "Umm.. Can you really keep me safe from Sesshoumaru?" "Yes in my den you will be safe." "Alright I will give you two shards." She reaches up and pulls off two shards and hands them to him. "Here they are." He takes the shards and smiles then jams them into his arms. Quickly he grabs her around the waist and runs faster than the wind. She squeals a little as he grabs her then stops. She looks around her as they speed through the mountains area. All of a sudden he stops and two wolf demons appear. "Hey it's Kouga." "Hey Kouga welcome back." "Thanks guys it's great to be back." He keeps tight hold of her as she looks about. He carries her inside the main den and gently tosses her onto a huge pile of soft grass like hay. He then turns and stares at his fellow wolves and demons. "No one is to touch or harm her and if I find out any have you will pay. Also make sure to keep Sesshoumaru away from her and if you spot him heading towards here come find me immediately. Is this understood?" "Yes Kouga." He turns back around to her. "You may roam around but stay with in these grounds don't wander off ok." She nods her head and looks about at all the wolf demons and wolves. The rest of the pack just look at her then go back to what they were doing before.
She looks up at Kouga. "Umm. Kouga where will I be sleeping?" "Where you are at with me. The den isn't very big but it keeps us all happy and the waterfall keeps us hidden." "Oh. Ok. I think I am going to take a nap I'm quite tired from all my running." "Very well." He turns and walks off. She looks around again at everyone and gulps. *God I hope they don't try and eat me while I sleep.* She moves around on the grass and lays down in the far back part of the area away from everyone and starts to fall asleep. As she is about to fall asleep a young wolf cub approaches and sniffs her then lays down next to her. She looks at the cub then softly runs her hand down his back before falling deep into sleep.
After finishing his hunting Kouga returns to the den and walks back to his sleeping area. As he approaches he sees the wolf cub sleeping next to her and smiles. "Well now ain't that something Spike. The cub likes her who would have thought." "Yeah, right before she fell asleep the cub walked up to her and laid down. No one knows why. The cub just fell asleep as he laid next to her." "Hmm.." He looks at the cub and calls it. "And why were you laying next to her?" The cub answers back in it's own way of talking telling him that she seemed nice but was a bit uneasy so he thought that he would keep her company and that he hopes he didn't do wrong. Kouga nods to the cub. "Very well you may go back and sleep next to her if you like." The cub walks back over and lies next to her again going back to sleep. Kouga walks onto the grassy bed and lies down next to her and the cub. He then looks at her sleeping and smiles. *You are something aren't you.* He closes his eyes and falls deep into sleep.
As the morning breaks Sesshoumaru awakens. *Well I think I have given her enough time to put up a good chase.* "Jaken!" Quickly Jaken enters Sesshoumaru's room. "Jaken you are to take care of Rin and keep her inside today. She is not to leave the castle and if she asks about Falien tell her we are away on business and will return later." "Hai Lord Sesshoumaru." The toad leaves the room as Sesshoumaru dresses himself and heads out into the forest. He follows Falien's trail leading him to the Spring she had stopped at and finds that her trail is gone and so is the other sent he had picked up. *Damn it now how could she have disappeared without a trace? Something is not right here and who's smell is that?* He growls in disgust and he goes back to his lands and tries to find her. *She is going to pay when I find her.*
Back at Kouga's den Falien awakens and looks about. Next to her she finds the cub still sleeping and one of Kouga's arm under her head as the other is wrapped around her waist. *What in the world? How did his arms get there?* She yawns softly then carefully move herself from his grasp she stands making sure not to awaken him or the cub and heads out of the den. Upon exiting the den she looks over the surroundings and then heads down the side path of the waterfall to the bottom. Around her she notices the few awake wolves and youkai. They all look at her then go back to their business. *Wow this place is beautiful in the morning. I guess I'll go and wash my face clean.* She walks over to the spring and wets her face down wiping away her sleepers and waking her up completely. She sits down on the soft grass by the spring and relaxes. While she is at the spring Kouga awakens and looks around. *Now where did she go to?* He gets up and follows her sent outside of the den. Near the water he spots her and walks down over to her. "So here you are." "Yeah I just woke up a few minuets ago and was cleaning my face up a bit. It is so nice here, so peaceful." "Yeah I know that is why we set up the den here and the water fall keeps us safe for the most part." All of a sudden one of the wolf demons approaches Kouga. "Hey Kouga news about Sesshoumaru." "What is it?" "Well he found the spot where you found the girl and left there in disgust because he couldn't smell her sent anymore." "Well that is good to hear. So is that all?" "Hai that's all we know Kouga but we'll tell you if anything comes up." "All right now get back to your post." "Hai Kouga." The demon turns and returns to his post. "Well that is great news." "Hai indeed it is. So what are you going to do now that you are safe from Sesshoumaru?" "Well if you don't mind I would like to stay here." "No I don't mind at all and you are welcome to stay here with me as long as you like." He smirks and grins at his comment. "So what are you grinning at and what do you mean by with you?" "Oh nothing. So are you hungry?" "Hai I'm famished." "All right I'll be back soon with some food." He then turns and runs off. *Wow he is fast but I still wonder what he meant by what he said. Oh well.*
A little after he leaves to get some food the little cub comes walking out of the den and walks over to Falien. The cub nuzzles his head against her arm to get her attention. She looks down at the cub and smiles. "Oh hello little guy. Arigatou for keeping me warm last night." The cub looks at her then licks her hand. "Aww your sweet." She picks up the cub and places him on her lap as she gently starts to pet his soft back. The cub curls up on her lap enjoying her petting. As Kouga returns from getting some food he finds Falien with the cub on her lap and smiles. "Well he seems to be found of you." "Hai it seems so and he is so cute. What is his name?" "He has no name as of yet. The only ones we really give names to are the youkai wolves. But you may name him if you like." "Alright. How about Logan?" The cub looks at her funny. "Alright I guess not." She chuckles. "Well I can't think of a name right now but when I do I'll see how you like it." The cub licks her in the face softly. Kouga gives the cub a funny look. "So how would you like your food?" "Umm.. I guess medium rare." "Alright I'll have it ready in a bit." "Great." He smiles at her then goes off to cook the food. The cub seeing, as he's not getting any attention he starts to wag his tail. "Oh are you getting jellious now?" She smiles down at the cub and looks over at Kouga cooking the meat. *I wonder why he is being so nice to me.* Her eyes watch him carefully. *Well he is very cute.* While cooking Kouga notices that she is watching him and smiles. *Well now why is she staring at me. It's not like I don't mind. Hmm maybe she is starting to warm up to me. But that cub is not going to be sleeping on my bed again tonight that is for sure.*
He finishes cooking the meat and brings her a huge slab over. "Here you are I hope its alright." She takes the meat and bites into it and chews it good. "Mmm it's delicious Arigatou." "Your welcome." He looks down at the cub and picks him up. "Your coming with me we need to talk cub." The cub looks at Falien. "You better not be mean to him Kouga." "No worries. I am just going to talk with him." "Alright then." He walks off with the cub in his arms. She looks at him then goes back to eating. After finishing her food she looks about and wonders what she can do sense she is getting board. After having told the cub his place Kouga walks back over to Falien and sits down near her. "So what do you plan on doing today?" "No clue. What is there that I can do?" "What ever you like. You can rest, go swimming in the stream, relax in the hot spring, and I think we have some books up in the den if you wish to read." "Oh ok I guess I'll go do some reading and I'll see you later." "Alright." She stands and heads up to the den to find the books. As she walks away Kouga watches her. Another wolf demon walks up to Kouga. "Well it seems you are starting to like her huh Kouga? What about Kagome?" "Hai I guess I am. What do you mean what about Kagome?" "Well we all thought that you were in love with her." "Well I'm not ok? Falien is so much better than Kagome. Plus Kagome is in utter love with that albino runt of a dog turd Inuyasha. So why waste my time on her when I can have Falien and trust me I will have her as my mate very soon. I just have to get her to trust me a bit more. After what Sesshoumaru did to her it will take some time." "What did he do to her?" He growls thinking about what happened to her. "That asshole of a mutt tried to rape and torture her into submission. When I found her that night she had slash marks all over her body from his claws." "Aww man poor girl. But she will be yours we all know that. We have watched her and the way she looks at you. We all can tell she likes you Kouga." "That's good and plus she has the spirit to be alpha female." "Indeed she does. Well good luck and I will keep the cub out of your bed from now on." "Make sure of that." Kouga turns and walks off. *Man he has got it bad.* The youkai chuckles softly then walks back over to his post.
Later that day as Sesshoumaru returns to his castle Rin runs up to him. "Where is Falien?" "She has left us Rin. Never speak of her again in my presence is that understood?" Tears well up in her eyes and she runs off. "What happened to her Lord Sesshoumaru?" "That is none of your concern. Now leave my sight." He growls and walks off to his room. Jaken just stares at him. Over at the bone eaters well we find Kagome and Inuyasha talking. "Well I'm off for now Inuyasha I have a huge test to take but I will be back in three days." "Fine just fine leave me. We have to get those shards back." "Hai I know Inuyasha but I have to go now see you in three days." "Feh." She jumps into the well and vanishes. "Damn her for loosing those shards." He turns and walks off pissed.
As the days pass by slowly we find Falien where she has been most of the time in the den of the wolf demons reading what little books there are to read. As she awakens from a good night's rest again she finds her head resting on Kouga's arm and him fast asleep. *How is it that when I go to sleep my head is on the ground but when I awaken my head is on his arm?* She looks at his face as he sleeps and smiles. *He looks so cute when he sleeps.* She gently runs her hand over his face smiling. She yawns and stands up slowly. "Well I think I'll go clean up then have something to eat." As she is about to walk away a strong arm grabs her by the waist and brings her back down to the ground. "What the heck? Why did you do that Kouga?" "I don't want you to go. Stay here a little longer with me." She signs and chuckles softly then relaxes and lies back down. He pulls her up against his chest tightly as if not wanting her to ever leave. He nuzzles his head against her back. "Hey that tickles a bit." She starts to giggle softly. He places a soft kiss upon her skin behind her neck. "So what have you got planned today?" "Well I actually would like to go back to my time for a bit if that's ok?" "Aww why do you have to go?" "Well I need to close out the sale on my house and I need to get some new clothes and other accessories." He lets out a sad sigh. She smirks. "Well if you like you can come too." "Seriously? You mean it?" "Hai it would be cool. Plus I'll need help caring my things back." "All right then so when do we leave?" "Now if you like." Great. Lets get going then. When will we be returning?" "Well most likely tonight or by tomorrow." "Ok. Hey spike come here." Spike walks over to where they are at. "Hai Kouga?" "Spike I will be leaving for a day or so. I need you to keep things in order here alright?" "Sure thing Kouga." "Also I need a couple others to stay by the well but to keep hidden don't let anyone know they are there. We will be bringing some supplies back with us." "Sure Kouga no problem." "Alright lets go Falien." He stands and helps her to her feet and they walk out of the den. "Here get on my back it will be faster that way." "Ok." She gets on his back and they quickly head to the well at speeds faster than the wind. As they reach the well they sport Inuyasha and Kagome coming towards the well. "Well let's hurry up and get on the other side. Grab my hand Kouga." He grabs her hand and they jump into the well.
As they reach the bottom of the well she climbs on his back and he jumps out of the well into a small building. He looks around in confusion. "It's ok we aren't in the past anymore we are in my time." "Oh ok. Well lead the way sense you know where you are going." "Ok." She smiles to him and grabs his hand and they walk out of the well house quickly so that none see them and head out to the street. They make their way back to her house and she unlocks the door. "Come on in." "This world is so strange." "Hai I guess it would be for you." She smiles and pulls him into the house. "Well this is where I was living." "Very interesting." She walks down the hall and into the living room. Upon entering she listens to her messages on her machine. "Oh cool some one has bought my house all I have to do is sign the papers. Well I guess I best start packing my things so that we may get back to your time." "Alright. So what can I do to help?" "Umm.. Lets see. Well you can hold the bags while I put things in them." "Ok." She turns and looks at him. "Hey why are you being so nice to me?" "Well..." He turns away from her. "Please tell me." He takes a deep breath and turns back around. "Well it's because I like you allot and I want you to be my mate." She looks at him in shock. "Umm.." She turns and heads down the hall towards her room. Her face bright red. "Hey what did I say? I told you the truth. Get back here." She walks into her room and grabs a huge duffel bag and starts to put lots of different clothes inside of it. He follows her and grabs her by the arm pulling her to him. He places a clawed finger under her chin making her look up at him. "Now tell me what is wrong with what I said." "Umm.. Well it's just that. Umm.." "Tell me." He stares deep into her eyes. "I like you also Kouga it's just I don't know how to answer your question at this time. Just give me some time to think about it ok?" "Very well if that is what you feel you need." He smiles then gently places a soft kiss on her lips. She blinks and kisses him back as she blushes a bit then pulls away from the kiss. "Alright I need to get these things packed." "Ok." He holds her duffel open as she places more clothes into the bag. "How much clothes do you need?" "Lots. Well that should be enough clothes. But I will need to stop at the store and pick up some hair cleaning products and other necessities. Plus I'm going to buy some food that I like to eat." He just watches her grab things and place them into the duffel. "Alright now time for shopping. If you like you can stay here I won't be long." "Alright hurry back." She grabs her wallet and her purse and heads out the door. He watches her leave then goes and sits down on her bed and waits for her return.
After an hour of shopping she returns with around 30 bags of items such as food and hair products plus much more. As she walks in the door Kouga just looks at all the things she has. "Jeez that is allot of things. Here let me help you." He goes and grabs most of the things. "Here follow me I need to pack all of this up." He follows her to her room and she shows him which duffel to put the items in. After sorting and packing the items she marks the duffels as to their contents. "Well I think I have everything are you ready to go?" "Hai. Here let me carry the bags." "Alright." She smiles and before leaving she signs the papers and instructs the seller as to where to put her belongings. Both of them with all the duffel bags leave her house and head back to the well. When they reach the well they quickly move past those that are on the grounds and jump into the well.
As they reach the other side of the well the two other wolf demons help them out with all the duffels. "Wow Kouga she sure did bring allot." "Hai but she plans on stay here for a very long time. Now grab some bags you guys and take them back to the den and don't stop at all." "Hai Kouga." They each grab half of the bags and race back to the den. Kouga grabs Falien and places her on his back and runs back to the den. As they reach the den they enter and set up the bags near their sleeping area. "Wow it's night time already. This day went by so quickly." "Hai it did." The other demon wolves start to go through her bags looking at all the odd things. "Hey stop that I had those packed just right." She goes over and zips up the bags. "Now stay out or no treats tomorrow." The others ears perk and they go back to their own area's. She smiles and chuckles. "Now that was interesting. They listened to me." Kouga walks up behind her wrapping his arms around her waist. "Of course they do." "And why is that?" "Because in time you will be my mate and alpha female here." She blushes at what he had said. "But I am not a wolf silly." "Well I can change that my pet." "Oh is that so?" He growls softly as he speaks into her ear. "Yes that is so." She gets goosebumps from how he said that. He nuzzles his head against hers. She turns around into his arms and looks up at him. "Why is it that you want me for a mate?" "Because you are different, better, and very strong willed. Plus I have fallen for you dear girl." "Oh is that so." "Hai it is." He leans down and kisses her deeply on the lips. "When you are ready my dear I will claim you as my mate but I will not force it upon you. You must be willing because I don't want to see you unhappy." She blushes softly and snuggles into his body sighing happily.
That night Kouga lays down and pulls her down to lay close to him her head again resting on his arm as he wraps his other arm around her. She snuggles in close to his body for warmth. "It is starting to get cold during the night." "Yes I know that is why I am keeping you close to bee so I can keep you warm." She smiles and relaxes. He nuzzles his head against hers. "Good night my dear." "Night Kouga." She yawns softly and closes her eyes falling asleep. *My how you have changed me Falien. But one thing is for sure I do love you and I don't plan on loosing you to anyone. Soon very soon I will make you my mate and a wolf Youkai like myself.* He snuggles in and falls deep into sleep. As the morning wakes Kouga opens his eyes and smiles seeing her still next to him. He looks at her and moves a hair away from her face. "Morning brings out such beauty in you." He kisses her lightly on the cheek. Her eyes softly open as she looks at him. "Did you sleep well?" "Hai it was great. Your arm is so comfy and your body kept me warm all night long. Arigatou." She turns her body into him and kisses him lightly on the lips. He smiles then deepens the kiss. She closes her eyes enjoying his kiss. Slowly he pulls back so that she can breathe. "Wow." "Hai that's what I say." He licks his lips. "Mmm you taste like strawberries." She blushes. "Your silly." He chuckles softly. She snuggles in close to his body not wanting to get up.
A/N: Well I hope that you enjoyed the story thus far. So what do you think Falien is going to do about her and Kouga and her feeling towards him? What about Sesshoumaru? Well I'm not sure how this will turn out. But we all will have to wait and see. Oh and please review. If you have any comments please don't hesitate to tell me I need all the input that I can get. If you think anything is wrong or if you think something could be better please tell me. Thanks.
