Chapter X: Fire's Passion

Her words echoed within his mind as he moved back from her slightly. After kissing her for several moments he had to stop himself to calm his mind from all these emotions. He was a youkai, and these emotions were not relevant to him. For some reason though all he wanted was to hear her sweet voice say it again to him

"What did you say?" he asked.

Blushing now the ookami youkai looked down, "I love you Hiei. I know being a youkai I am not suppose to feel this, but I do. All I wanted was to be at your side, and help you through this."

All he could was look away at hearing her. His plan to end it all was falling apart. He couldn't kill her now or what grew within her womb. It was something sacred between them, and he wanted to believe in her that there might be a way to stop it all.

Slowly he felt her hand caress his face as she leaned into him. Her body molded perfectly to his scarred and torn body. So young she was to him yet so wise to be able to pierce through his guards. His worn fingers scarred and burned by the dragon entangled and stroked through her silky hair as his eyes shut taking in her scent.

"No one has ever said that to me. You are one stupid ookami Saya," he casually let across his lips.

Smiling she stroked his arm in response with her comment, "I know I am, and it is only to you that I am stupid."

Under his touch her body began to convulse in an unusual way to Hiei. Then he realized from the tears that were falling that she was crying. A youkai crying is absurd, but before him now tears of sadness fell upon him. All he could do to stop her convulses was to take her succulent lips into another sweet embrace with his own.

Through her falling tears she replied as her emotions began to come together to clear her mind. Reluctantly she pulled back to look into his eyes.

"Hiei, you have had control of the dragon before by becoming it. Of course now the dragon demands have intensified, and rejects either one of us to become one with it," she tried to sort out.

Looking away he knew what she spoke of. The dragon had created a mind of its own, as if it was actually using him by having him use it to his will. It was like he was pawn for damn power he was suppose of mastered. He felt like a fool, and he intended to fix this. Hiei desired to over power and dominate this damn darkness flame, and he could really only do it through Saya.

"Hiei, it requires the end of the child within me. Also, it will require one of us to end our own lives."

Hearing her words sent a chill through him. The thought of death never seemed so realistic to him before now.

"I have listened through the silent hours, and the dragon's weakness was unveiled to me. You can master it again if I take this child and myself through the barrier of the Underworld. Of course the only way to open that world is through my mother, and I am sure she knows this by now too," she solemnly explained.

Hiei turned to her with sorrow in his eyes as he finally spoke, "There has to be another way for I will make another way. You are not going to die, because I won't allow it."

Placing her hand gently upon his cheek she smiled, "But you planned to take my life along with our child as well as yourself before you came to rescue me. I can hear your thoughts Hiei as you can hear mine. You know this is the only way, and I won't let you die. You are much more valuable to all the realms then I am."

Taking her hand he held it there, "No, you are valuable. Your life is in my hands, and its value is priceless while I protect you. So you are not dying any time soon."

Tear welled up in her eyes again as his eyes pierced her soul, "Hiei, why do you say such things? I do not understand for you don't have to protect me."

"Yes, I do. That is my answer, and I have no reason to explain it," he coldly noted before pinning her to the ground.

Placing warm kisses upon her neck he was able to stop her questioning and quench his need to be with her. Slowly he removed her clothing as she removed his own. They took their time exploring their bodies at every angle to be connected at every level. They had found each other on the physical and mental level all that was left was emotional. This night of their lovemaking would truly open his eyes to what she felt as he began to understand her heart and desires through the raw feeling of touch.

Soon he found himself on his back as she straddled him at the waist, but he had not entered her warm being that he so adored. That was when he felt that sting of emotion rushing through him as his hands reluctantly reached out for her stomach. Saya's hand helped him along the way he finally made contact with what he felt within her. Their shared emotions and life; the son they could never see be born. The feeling almost tore him apart inside knowing that life could never be. Somewhere in the back of his mind he knew one of them would not be here either in the morning.

Saya leaned into him to whisper into his ear, "Tonight is my turn to make love to you my Shadow."

Nibbling upon his ear a whimpering moan escaped his lips hearing her call him such a name followed by her delicate touch. He sat up wrapping himself around her drawing her to him closely as he placed that very ear next to her heart hearing it beat.

She could only smile at how childish he seemed at this very moment as she ran her hands through his raven hair. After a few moments she pulled from his grasp laying him back down as she began to don his body with sweet delicate kisses of true care starting at his neck.

Hiei never felt so loved before as she ran her shivering kisses down his chest giving attention at every muscle with her kisses and her delicate caresses with her hands.

Saya wanted to make Hiei feel truly wanted for he made her feel that unknowingly. As her kisses passionately made their way down his chiseled chest to her muscle toned abdomen. He almost shivered underneath her touch as she not only kissed him, but she also was able to send her true raw emotion through him with her touch. Moving off of his waist her hands feathered pass his hips down to his true passion.

When her hands took hold of his erection the moan that escaped him created a passionate smile across her face. Anything that made him happy would make her happy as she slowly stroked him. The exotic sounds flowed along the winds to her as she soon realized that he wished for her to quicken. That was intensified when his hand had slipped upon her own hand pleading her to go quicker. With a smile she quickened her pace soon replacing one hand with her mouth wanting to know every part of him.

The feel of her warm mouth upon him created an almost carnal yelp from the fire youkai as his hand lightly grasped her hair. He couldn't take much more of this as he pulled her up taking her lips into a deep and passionate kiss their tongues instantly exploring each other. Slowly he felt her straddle him as her one hand guided him within her as his hands held onto her waist.

It was the purest feeling to be connected as such with her as they finally molded together. The physical action of their love could never compare to the feeling that rushed through them as their jagan eyes glowed in a blood red hue together.

Saya closed her eyes as she whimpered his name when she came back down upon him again and again. Once again his ear was to her chest listening to her heart beat. Her pace began to pick up as their carnal needs began to take over them both. Soon enough they climaxed over their passionate edge together as he released into her as her inner walls quenched all they could out of him.

He felt himself growing weak and tired as they stayed connected.

"Hiei, I love you," her melody almost sang to him again.

In his own haze of ecstasy he was able to realize his own true emotions, "Yes, as I do for you."

Finally he fell into a slumber with her upon his chest as he fell into a dream of bliss and passion. Never feeling so complete before; never imagining a youkai could feel so fulfilled.

Kurama sat with Koi all night as they continued to hear reports of Ama's condition as well of the rest of Spirit World. It seemed all the barriers were going into chaotic motion with the unrest of the dragon. Yusuke had returned to them last night, and was sleeping across from them as they spoke.

Ama the night before had spoke to them as to separate them, and Yusuke would be needed. With Yusuke's demon power he would be able to distract Hiei as Koi and himself would go after Saya. Ama had told them the dreaded truth of having to open a portal to the Underworld. Ama was willing to sacrifice herself, but Saya would have to as well to settle the disturbance of the dragon. Before she passed out the night before she said Saya would come to them knowing her destiny.

When she came Ama would be ready to finish this, but to be sure that if Hiei came Yusuke would be needed to stop him. Koi and he would have to keep guard over both Ama and Saya to make sure Hiei wouldn't get to them.

Kurama's head lowered more knowing the truth that Hiei wouldn't come for Saya for the child, but for her. He saw it last night when he came. Hiei's eyes had changed; they held a passion of emotion within them to get her back.

He felt Koi's hand upon his leg as he looked to her. Her smile was most reassuring as he took her into an embrace. For she knew her best friend would face death, and she had to face the loss.

"Don't worry Koi. I swear it will all better," he tried to reassure her.

Yusuke awoke lazily to their embrace, "Hey you two, she's here."

They all stood heading for the main entrance and there before them a willing female youkai approached them holding a katana. Kurama recognized immediately it was Hiei's own blade.

Koi ran up to her friend taking her into a deep embrace.

"Saya, I am so sorry this has to be this way," she said through tears.

Pushing her back she could only smile holding the Hiei's blade close to her chest.

"I don't Koi, for I am truly complete now."
