SunMoon1285: Well hello again fellow readers!!! I received a lot of reviews and advices! I feel so... (eyes fill with happy-tears)
Sesshoumaru: (hands her napkin) Don't get emotional
SunMoon1285: (blows nose) Well... I noticed that this story is quite um-
Inuyasha: long and... (sneezes) bo-ring
(SunMoon1285 throws napkin at Inuyasha's face while Sesshoumaru smacks Inuyasha on his head)
Sesshoumaru: Quiet you baka! Or else she goes in another of her writer's blocks
Inuyasha: Geez...
*Before I start I want to straighten some things out... * 1) Sorry for the spelling mistakes on past chapters.... I'll try to spell as efficiently as I can 2) As for Sesshoumaru submitting to Kagome and being too soft... it's mainly because of the mating mark (Remember what Kaiyan said a few chapters ago) 3) I'm sorry if this story seems strange or whatnot... but it's my first pic and the situation is rather um... new (Please bear with me...) 4) The lemon unfortunately has to wait for a while... at least for a few chapters to keep the rhythm of the story (sorry again!) Finally... (whew!)
Chapter 7: A Night to Remember... or Not
"WHAT THE FUCK IS SESSHOUMARU DOING HERE!?!?!!?" Inuyasha yelled as Sesshoumaru stepped into the campsite followed by Kagome.
"He'll join us on our quest... At least for a while..." Kagome explained before nudging Sesshoumaru to speak.
"I have a score to settle with this Naraku... And knowing that that hannyou always attacks your group... then I will await him and let him come to me" Sesshoumaru added coolly.
'The truth is that Sesshoumaru will never let me go on my own again after what happened with Koga. Even if the shards don't interest him nor the situation at hand, he is behaving quite different in just a few days' time...' Kagome thought to herself.
"Well... then welcome to our group! What can I say? The more the merrier right?" Miroku said.
"MIROKU!!! DON'T ENCOURAGE HIM!!! HE'S NOT STAYING!" Inuyasha said in anger
"I don't seem a reason to not let him... All of us have a score to settle with Naraku and his skills will come in handy for our battles..." Sango interrupted.
"Whatever... I am going for a walk..." Inuyasha seethed through gritted fangs.
Sesshoumaru knew Inuyasha was angry and decided to push his buttons even further.
"Are you going for a walk or a night of venture with the dead priestess?" Sesshoumaru said with a smirk.
"Inuyasha... Is it true?" Kagome asked.
"Whatever..." Inuyasha murmured as he jumped into the night air as the entire group looked up at his departure.
Kagome knelt down and began to take the ingredients out of her bag to begin to prepare instant ramen. Sango and Miroku talked amongst themselves while Shippo stood staring at Sesshomaru's still form. Sesshoumaru's white collar began to tinge with blood.
"Uh Kagome..." Shippo whispered, "Sesshoumaru's hurt, maybe you can help him clean his wounds"
When Kagome turned to see Sesshoumaru's neckline, she almost shouted in surprise.
'OH Kami!!! If anyone sees the bite mark, he will surely be humiliated and then he'd kill me since there's no reason for me to stay alive...' Kagome thought desperately as she rose her hands into her cheeks.
Sesshoumaru turned his head toward his so-called-mate and cocked his head to the side in confusion although he kept his face void of emotion.
'What the hell is she thinking about? Is she staring at me.... Do I have something peculiar or... Wait... I smell something... blood... my blood...' he thought. Before anyone could blink again he jumped into the night and left the entire group in a daze.
"What happened to Sesshoumaru?" Sango asked.
"Maybe he had other things to tend to..." Miroku said as he tried to grope Sango's butt before getting hit with the boomerang bone.
"Um... Then I guess I will go to the hot springs..." Kagome said.
"Are you sure that you want to go alone? Be aware that Inuyasha nor Sesshoumaru will not be here in case something happens to you..." Sango warned.
"Don't worry Sango... I'll take my bow and arrow in case something attacks me" Kagome assured.
Kagome took her bathing materials and left towards the hot spring. While she was walking aimlessly towards the spring she thought about the situation at hand.
'Hm... Everything's changed ever since I bit Sesshoumaru... I can't think straight... My feelings for Inuyasha are still strong but still... I am feeling different towards Sesshoumaru...' she thought as she looked to the ground in deep thought.
When she caught sight of the shore, she rose her eyes to the spring. Her eyes marveled at the sight before her. His silver white hair, his strong, taut and perfect body were decorated by the moonlight that shone on the water. His perfectly shaped face was beautifully adorned by the crimson marks and crescent moon on his forehead. His deep golden suns glistened in the night as he looked at the water to serve as a mirror as he carressed his mark tenderly.
Kagome was caught without words. No words could describe the fallen angel in the spring. She felt her heart quicken at him. 'Why am I feeling this way? Why am I thinking that HE is beautiful? NO!! I am supposed to love Inuyasha' she thought to herself in vain.
"Are you going to get in or are you going to stare at me for the rest of the night?" Sesshomaru said without even glancing at her.
He knew for a while that she was there, but somehow, it did not bother him. 'Let her see me... I belong to her now'. When he felt her heart quicken its pace he smiled knowingly at that reaction. 'So... I am not the only one who is developing unknown feelings or some sort'. He knew that he shouldn't feel. He told himself countless times that he will not submit to her or to the feelings developing in his being.
'I am the Great Taiyoukai of the West! I will not faze to anyone, even less a human miko!!! But for now...I'll lead her on and quench my desires. Make her yearn for me and in the end... I will push her away into an abyss unwanted.' He smirked as the thought came into his head. As he took this plan into action he said something to grab the girl's attention.
"S-s-s-orry Lord Sesshoumaru! I was only going to take a bath at the h-h-h-ot springs and when I noticed your body- er... presence I was-" Kagome stuttered as he neared towards her.
His body shimmered with the drops of water that was being dried from the quiet breeze of springtime. He rose towards her letting her glance at his entire body. Kagome turned away with crimson cheeks since it was her face time she saw a naked man.
"P-p-please L-Lord Sesshoumaru put some clothes on!!! Haven't you got any decency? What do you take me for?" Kagome half-yelled at the Taiyoukai.
"I take you as my mate Kagome... Remember that I belong to you... be aware that the ritual is not yet ended." Sesshoumaru said with a mischievous smirk on his face.
He decided to push it further and he neared his fair face extremely close to hers. She could feel the heat of his body emanating from him. Kagome trembled unwillingly at the close contact. She couldn't control herself. She had to stop. She closed her eyes and hugged herself in attempt to stop shivering. She felt strong arms encircling her petite form carresing soothingly at her body.
"You're trembling..." Sesshomaru whispered nonchalantly
"Yes..." Kagome replied nervously.
"Let me warm you..." Sesshomaru offered as he began to lower his hands from her back to her hips. 'This was easier than I thought... Soon I will have her begging for me to take her... and I will... then after that I will toss her away... Even if it means risking my principles of not being close to humans... for she is my mate-to-be and I belong to her'
"NO!!!" Kagome yelled as she broke away from his grasped. She saw a hint of frustration and dissappointment in his gold eyes.
Sesshoumaru backed away since his mark urged him to follow her bidding. He knew that he couldn't force himself upon her making the task at hand even more difficult.
"You are not thinking straight Sesshoumaru! I will not give myself away for your simple pleasures... I want to give myself to someone who LOVES me! Not a one-night-stand!!!"
Sesshoumaru could not believe that she just said that. 'How could she deny this Sesshoumaru? I am the most powerful youkai in the region! No one denies me!!!'
"Then... I will have you soon... in time" he said as he began to dress himself. He noticed the miko to be deep in thought and he looked at her as she asked her question.
"Hm... Lord Sesshoumaru? Why didn't you force yourself upon me? I... would have fought you but eventually you'd win..." Kagome said.
"I could... but I chose not to... This Sesshomaru will not go as low and pathetic as to rape a human." Sesshoumaru replied from his heart. He hated replying unwillingly to the miko because of the stupid mark. He straightened his haori and hakama trying to get away as soon as possible.
"You're hard to understand Sesshoumaru... But tell me... was it because of the mark or something else that made you stop?" Kagome asked as she prepared her bathing materials on the shore.
"I find your questions... annoying. This is my last statement," he said as he went away into the forest, "But since you asked... it was a little bit of both".
SunMoon1285: Yay! Another chapter done!
Sesshoumaru: Why do you make me suffer with that mark?
SunMoon1285: How else can I make you respect Kagome and eventually love her?
Sesshoumaru: (grumbles) Stupid miko. Stupid humans. Stupid writer!!
SunMoon1285: That's it!!!!!!!! If you continue I will bite you myself and deny my love you
Sesshomaru: you have feelings for me..
SunMoon1285: Er... Well I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter! Well I'll try to update soon!! Good bye! (runs away with Sesshomaru in close pursuit)
