Chapter 3 Discovery

The inside of the cave was completely dry and with no visible inhabitants. It was a big dark cave with a leave covered ground. Sesshoumaru walked until he reached the cave's walls. He kneeled down and put Rin gently on the ground. Beside him, Jaken was starting the fire, the little creature wanted to do his best to help her regain her consciousness so she can smile back at him. Jaken approached his master once the fire was ready. The cave was now lightly illuminated and the ambiance was getting warmer.

"Master her clothes...!!"

"Yes I know... I have to undress her!"

Before Sesshoumaru could say anything the demon walked away and sit beside A-UN and closed his eyes not wanting to disturb his master or Rin.

In the blink of an eye Sesshoumaru took his armor off and then untied the rich silky fabric around his waist and then the top of his kimono. He leaned over Rin and started to undress her very carefully. His fingers moved over her body so softly it felt unreal. He was a bit nervous because the more his hand moved the more of her skin was exposed to his curios gaze.

Once he removed the damp clothes, the youkai gasped in surprise then rejoiced on the vision in front of him. Her skin was so perfectly touchable and desirable it took his breath away. No one had ever caress her, kissed her, least give her pleasure. Right there and there he discovered he wanted to be the one who made her feel passionate and burning with desire. He and no one else would own her virginity. She was his.

His heart raced when he allowed his fingers to caress her face while his eyes gazed at every inch of her. She was more beautiful than he had ever imagined. Her breast were full and completely firm, unable to control his emotions, Sesshoumaru run his fingers down her collar bone and the soft skin amid her breasts, when he did that, she agitated a little and the demon smiled softly.

Then as if he knew he couldn't hold any longer the site of her Sesshoumaru quickly covered her and placed her on his lap. He softly cupped her face in his hand

Nesting her in his lap, facing the fire; he started to gently caress her face, praying she would wake up soon. The prince wanted to see his reflection in her eyes he wanted to hear her voice so the pain oppressing his chest would stop.

Hours later Rin lazily opened her eyes without realizing at first where she was or why she felt so warm and comfortable. She brushed off her bangs and naturally leaned in her master's chest. The minute she realized where she was her head started spinning and slowly looked up to meet Sesshoumaru's gleaming look. Unable to really move nor wanting to, she managed to clear her throat and speak in a somewhat coherent way. She could not believe she was there in the warmth of his embrace, just like when she had nightmares as a little girl.

"M-master...you came back!"

"Yes, now how do you feel?"

"Fine thanks!"

"Are you cold Rin?"

"No...I mean just a little!"

Sesshoumaru smiled softly at her reaction, it was obvious to him she was more than comfortable in his lap. It was fine by him, since he too, didn't want to let go of the exhilarating feeling he had while holding her tight against his broad, exposed chest.

When she felt the way he seemed to cling to her, she cuddled against him not sure it was a dream or not. Sesshoumaru didn't know exactly what ever possessed him to slightly rub his lips against her forehead in a soft, frail kiss...maybe it was the way she looked at him completely mesmerized, her eyes sparkling with joy, or maybe it was him, he wanted to kiss her plain and simple. Looking at her closely he realized who wouldn't want to kiss such a beautiful and alluring creature.

He could sense how Rin tried to speak in an effort to voice all the emotions boiling in her chest but she could not say a single word, because the feel of his soft lips against her skin was overwhelming. Once their eyes met, she managed to gasp lightly, allowing her eyes to communicate her feelings.

Those bright deep emerald eyes had a melting effect on him he felt dizzy. Gazing leisurely from her eyes to her lips, he noticed her mouth was once again a rosy temptation. He was definitely not feeling like himself, because he was gently caressing her sweet cherry lips with his finger. He spoke in a whisper leaning to her.

"They're not blue anymore...good!"

"..."

If she were to be standing she was sure she would have fainted overwhelmed by the electrifying sensation. She recognized her master in front of her but there was something different and exciting in his voice, a fiber of emotion crept from his tone to her ears, making her skin crawl with joy and desire.

In that instant her nana's words sounded in her head like an omen 'Follow your instincts' and so she did. Rin moved her lips nibbling tenderly at Sesshoumaru's finger. The youkai didn't make a sound but his eyes lit up with excitement not taking his finger off her mouth as if he wanted more.

Rin didn't hesitate, she tasted his finger with her tongue bite him lightly and then kissed the tip of the finger. He looked at her feeling completely weak but ecstatic; he could no longer pretend or ignore his feelings. Slowly he traced her lips once more, then moved his hand under her back and held her like that for a second lost in her eyes, before kissing her.

The moment he kissed her, she closed her eyes feeling weak and trembling. She timidly opened her lips allowing him to kiss her more while she tightly closed her arms around him. She could not think of anything else but that kiss, she could feel his tongue explore the inside of her inexperienced mouth. She had dreamt about that so many times, her head was spinning out of control.

Sesshoumauru could feel Rin practically melting in his arms making him feel thrilled. He turned to her with a wide tender smile and savored her lips softly this time he sliding his tongue under her lips making her quiver.

Being there kissing her like the most usual thing made clear why in the past few months, his heart raced whenever she was near...the youkai prince was in love with his human, delicate protégé. She was the one being that made him feel complete, whole and happy. That graceful creature was the owner of his heart and soon she will become the mother of his children.

Sesshoumaru lost track of time, submersed in pleasure. He could listen to her moan making his skin burn up with desire. Every time her lustful voice touched his ears the prince would open his mouth a bit more excited by the smell of arousal filling up his senses making his animal blood wild.

He caressed her back moving his fingers up to her nape, making her whole body tingle. She wanted to caress him in return but Rin knew she was just a silly inexperienced girl in love with the most beautiful demon that ever existed; still she wanted to feel his skin under her fingertips, so she slowly started outlining the muscles in his chest.

The moment Sesshoumaru felt her hands moving over his chest he felt a jolt of energy thru his entire body, he slowly broke the kiss off nuzzling in her cheek and nibbling at her lower lip. When they finally gazed at each other, the youkai was blinded by the soft smile and happiness reflected in her jade eyes.

They look intently at each other but remained silently, Sesshoumaru wanted to show her how he was feeling and suddenly he knew how...he curved his lips into a soft sincere smile just for her, only for her.

Rin choked and her eyes opened wide in surprise and for a split second her heart stopped beating with the beauty and depth of that smile, which sealed her soul forever, knowing that she would love only him for the rest of her natural life.

Then it hit her, she had to tell him but she was lost in his amber eyes. Trying to gather enough courage to confess, she gasped and then forced the words out of her mouth.

"Seshoumaru...I love you!"

There, she said it, he knew. He didnt say anything in return but at least she had, and now she could sleep thinking, hoping that all of this was her new reality but she knew better...this was just a moment lost in time not to be repeated again, ever. She was certain of this and so she smiled, closed her eyes and cuddle up against him, mumbling something about being tired and sleepy.

Sesshoumaru was repeating the words in his head, she loved him...there was no hesitation in her voice. Rin might be an innocent inexperienced girl but she sure was certain of her feelings for him, so much it was overwhelming and enticing.

The youkai was so moved by her confession he felt a sharp pain in his stomach piercing his soul, he was about to say something when he realized she was very quiet and turned to see her. Rin was completely asleep and looking absolutely adorable. He chuckled noticing how perfectly she molded her entire body against his broad chest and thought it was ok to let her sleep and talk later, after all he had the rest of his life to let her know how much he loved her. At last he had found his mate, all he wanted now was the pleasure and joy of making love to her.
