Old Lust Dies Hard

Chapter 4: Dream Weaving

Sesshomaru sat him his chair in the living room, reading a book about zombies running around and devouring people. It was really very interesting.

Senayalayasha stood behind the bedroom door, watching him carefully. Sesshomaru had started to succumb to sleep again, his head falling back against the corner of the chair and the book in his hand dropping to his lap, still on the page where he had dropped off.

Naraku had sensed Sesshomaru's sleep, and had everything he needed ready to start his dream weaving at Menatsu's house, his new fortress. "You shall remember…you shall remember everything you have forgotten about me…"

Sesshomaru started to pick up on the dream, or memory better suited, and fell into a coma-like state. Senayalayasha felt the need to run to his side to wake him up before anything drastic happened, but he didn't. Sesshomaru needed sleep, and he wasn't getting any, so it was best to leave him…

The dog demon sat in the chair, his body becoming extremely relaxed, more so than when he slept. He breathing became so shallow that it was scarcely seen from where Senayalayasha was standing, and his skin started to pale again.

"Sesshie…" he whispered softly, but said nothing else. He could only watch as Sesshomaru's face started to frown slightly, and then turned to discomfort.

Sesshomaru saw the bright light in a room, felt something around his head where there wasn't anything there. The memories that had been forced from his mind for so many years were returning, and it was unwelcome. He was laying on a futon again and Naraku was there, leaning down and kissing him again. He was going to witness his own rape a second time, and he didn't want to.

Sesshomaru's fingers moved slightly and he shifted, as if trying to get away from something, but the dream wasn't about to let him go. Again, Senayalayasha felt that overwhelming urge to go to his aid, but he stopped himself again, forcing his body to watch. "No…" Sesshomaru said quietly, and there was intense fear in his voice.

Sesshomaru could feel a warm, slimy tongue licking his neck and a warm mouth sucking it, and then he felt rough hands touching his chest, scratching the skin and making him bleed. He raised his hands and acted as though he was trying to pry something off himself, but there was nothing there and there wasn't anything he could do about the dream except wake the hell up!

The youkai felt invisible hips starting to grind into his and he brought up his legs, hoping to make the action stop, but he still felt it, in his dream and in the present. He moaned aloud and he face showed frustration, but his voice only held ecstasy.

"I won't…I won't!" he said, as clear as a bell, but in his memory he was, and he couldn't believe it. "Leave my body alone!"

The hands refused to leave, as did the warmth from the person's body. "No…No! I won't obey you!" The memory proved him wrong though; the vividness and authenticity of it almost making him become the memory itself, the strength of it all almost surpassing his will.

Sesshomaru grasped the arms of the chair tightly, gritting his teeth and sweat running down his face and hands. Before he knew what had happened, he was having an extremely loud orgasm. Senayalayasha, always being turned on by the sound of his lover's voice anyway, grasped the doorframe he was standing behind and bit his lip. He wasn't going to make a sound, he wasn't!

The whole deal lasted a little while longer, and then it just stopped. Sesshomaru was still and he relaxed again, though he was still breathing pretty hard.

Senayalayasha walked over slowly to Sesshomaru and touched his shoulder. Sesshomaru shot awake and looked around, flexing his claws. "Sesshie…?"

"Oh…'Yasha…it's you. You scared me."

"Are you okay?"

"I think so…"

"You had a pretty loud one there a few minutes ago. What was that all about?"

"A…loud…one? …Oh no…" Sesshomaru whispered, touching his temple.

"What?"

"I think…" Sesshomaru started, looking away and grasping his chin. "I think Naraku found his way into my mind and replayed my old memories of…the rape. I know I took part in it as well, but it's not as major as his. I mean, I know…oh, never mind. It's too complicated."

Senayalayasha sat in his chair that night, checking over Sesshomaru's corrections on his students' papers. He was so absorbed in fact, that he barely felt Sesshomaru's hands sliding down into the collar of his shirt on his chest.

He stopped and looked up, then smiled. "Hi."

"Do you know what tomorrow is?" Sesshomaru asked seductively, leaning down over the back of the chair and kissing Senayalayasha's nose.

"Mmm-mm. What is it?" he answered in an infatuated tone.

"Nah, I won't spoil it."

"Please?"

"Oh, fine. Tomorrow's mating season. You up for it or do you want to wait another year?"

"It doesn't matter. What about you?"

"I think I'll have to wait another year. It's going to be hard for me this year as it is with my sleeping problems."

"I see. So next year, then."

"Yeah."

"Okay. It's fine with me."

Senayalayasha went back to checking the papers and Sesshomaru walked into the bedroom. He could already feel the effects of heat coming on.

"I've got to get away from everyone, then. I don't want to do anything unforgivable, much less hurt someone…" Sesshomaru said. He called the school and said he was sick and it was possible he wouldn't be there for a while, and then he took his Tokijin and left the house for the forest far from town.
