A/N I'm looking for an editor if anyone is interested in the job. Carry on

Previous Chapter:

"Kagome let me help you. I want to wake up everyone morning with you by my side. I want to see your face shining in both moonlight and daylight. I want you to be here when Rin gets older and asks me questions I cannot answer."

He began to maneuver her towards the bed.

"I want you Kagome, all of you. I want to know you as well as you would know me. Let me share this burden with you. Let me help you. By the gods Kagome…let me love you."

Her heart reached out to him as he did hers. She let him pull her into the folds of the mattress. And for once in all her life…Kagome yielded to the call of her own heart.

Chapter 7: Let Me Love You

Kagome P.O.V.

Sesshoumaru's fingers played across her skin as gentle as gossamer, as if he feared he would hurt her. But Kagome knew he could not. Those simple touches made her feel more alive than she had ever before. Never in all her life had she been more acutely aware of her body.

His fingers traced lines down her body, raising gooseflesh and causing her to shudder. And when his lips met hers she knew she was drowning. But she didn't care. Kagome tangled her fingers in that impossibly beautiful silver hair and kissed Sesshoumaru back as if her life depended on it.

His tongue tickled her bottom lip begging for entrance and she obliged him. His tongue was hot and probing as he massaged her own. Tentatively she returned the caress and slowly their tongues danced with each other.

Before she knew it Sesshoumaru's swift hands had them both nude and as his fingers danced along the smooth skin of her body, her magic welled up inside of her filling her with a deep soothing warmth. She felt that power breath across Sesshoumaru and he shuddered. Kagome to looked at him, her eyes filled with concern.

His eyes met hers and they blazed as they gazed down at her. They bore into her with the intensity of his hunger. Sesshoumaru bent his head forward and that was all the invitation he need give. Kagome kissed him with all the hunger and passion she felt for him.

Sesshoumaru cupped her breasts in his palms and slowly began to knead them. Kagome moaned in his mouth as his fingers wove a cunning trap along her body. He teased her sensitive nipples into life leaving Kagome panting. He pulled away for a moment leaving the demi-goddess in wonder just before his mouth closed open the hardened nub.

She cried out, arching her back into the sweet warmth of his mouth. His tongue swirled and licked while his hand teased and pinched. The combination was maddening and Kagome knew not whether to leave or stay. His other hand caressed the baby soft skin of her inner thigh. And for just a moment Kagome stilled.

Sesshoumaru's eyes met hers and he sent a tentative thread through her mind.

Let me love you.

It was all he said but it was enough, Kagome surrendered and Sesshoumaru found her most intimate of cores. He worked her slowly at first, her heart already swollen and slick even without his touch.

Kagome squirmed under such new attention and fought in vain for control. Her power was seeping into the air making it hard for her to breath, and Sesshoumaru's fingers were weaving a spell she couldn't pull away from.

Then a digit was slipped inside of her. With a gasp she lost control and her power flooded them both making both demon and demi-goddess squirm under the delicious pressure of it. But Kagome began to fight it and strained for control.

Sesshoumaru's fingers began to work again in an attempt to distract her; and in the end he won out. Her pulse raced and her body was set on fire with every stroke. Kagome writhed under his touch as slowly one finger, then two and then three were inside of her, as if preparing her for something far larger.

His strokes were slow and deliberate drawing her deeper into the exquisite torture she felt. A frustrated growl escaped her lips as he rubbed her tender pearl, and she shifted her hips trying to get him closer. But Sesshoumaru seemed intent on making her wait.

"Sessho…" She whispered.

But it seemed the demon lord did not hear her. "Sessho please." She begged while twining her fingers in his hair and making him look at her.

For a moment their eyes met and Sesshoumaru rose until he was eye level with her. His eyes had hardened slightly, replaced by seriousness that she knew not where it had come from. His eyes were asking her 'are you ready?' and she nodded.

"They'll be no turning back Kagome, is this what you want?"

She gazed back into his eyes and saw the pleading there, and she realized that he needed his as much as she did. They needed each other. How could she deny him?

"…Yes." She whispered and pulled his face closer. "Oh yes."

Their kiss was all hunger and passion and in that moment Sesshoumaru plunged himself inside her. Kagome gasped in his mouth cringing momentarily in pain. For a moment Sesshoumaru did not move, as if waiting for her to tell him to stop, but it never came.

Then slowly he began to move inside of her. Her body clenched around him, relishing the feel of him. He seemed to fill every crevice of her and it was hard to tell where he ended and Kagome began.

Sesshomaru threw his head back and growled, his fingers digging into her hips.

"Feels…so good." He whispered.

The demon lord began to pump more quickly into the hot, pulsing sheath that was the woman he loved. How could they never have done this sooner? It felt so right.

At first he had gone slowly, letting her grow accustom to his girth but moments later he realized he wouldn't be able to control himself. She fit him perfectly, her every moan every tremor, every beautiful panting breath was sending him closer and closer to the edge.

Then again what were they expecting? You play with fire; you're bound to get burned.

He could feel Kagome's power circulating about them both; it was like being caught in the eye of a storm. Beautiful and terrifying at the same time, he knew what would happen if he just move but an inch. He shifted his attention to Kagome to make sure she was alright.

But Kagome was taking it in stride; quickly her hips began to move in rhythm in his making him fill her even more. Their bodies wove and elaborate dance of love, hope and passion. Beautiful and magnificent, they drove each other closer and closer to the edge with every movement.

Kagome climaxed and the force of her body's wracking shudders caused Sesshoumaru to do the same. Then two things happened at once. Sesshoumaru teeth sank into the junction between neck and shoulder and Kagome lost control of her power, flooding them both with it.

It was like being caught in an endless loop of pleasure. The demi-goddess' power pulled at the both, bringing them to new heights of sensations. It filled them both with such raw feeling that their bodies' jerked with it. And just when they thought it was over, the power would pull them again and bring them to ecstasy.

When the tremors subsided, the two found themselves wrapped into the arms of the other. They lay there content to just catch their breaths and feel the other near them.

"…That…was glorious." Kagome whispered.

Sesshoumaru chuckled and nestled the mark he had made. He knew that this one was not permanent. It would only be if Kagome and he shared her power again and they both willed it to stay.

He had felt her power; it still had his body singing. Never in all his days had he felt so alive, he could not understand why Kagome feared it so.

"Glorious enough for you to consider never leaving her again?"

She gazed up at him, her moonbeam colored eyes still hazy yet beautiful. "To achieve what we just did Sessho, I would do far more than that." She told him.

Sesshoumaru looked at her then, he gave her a long calculating look before saying.

"Be my mate."

The words hung in the air for what seemed to be eternity before Kagome whispered.

"After what we shared you would still want that?" She asked quietly.

With eyes wide Sesshoumaru demanded. "By all the stars in the heavens, after what we shared Kagome how could I not?"

Kagome refused to look at him.

"Kagome look at me."

It took her a moment, but the demi-goddess obeyed.

"Why would I not?" He asked her.

"…I don't want to lose you Sessho." She told him looking down.

Sesshoumaru caught her chin between his fingers and made her look at him. He kissed her gently on the lips and told her just as softly.

"I will be by your side always."

Tenderly he stroked the imprint of his fangs. Kagome gave a light shudder but it was not from the cold, his touch could still make her body sing.

"This can be permanent if you choose. With both our powers combined, no one would dare trifle with us. You will be safe, we'll all be safe."

Kagome stared up into his pleading eyes and said.

"Your word."

She knew it was unfair to ask, she knew that anything could happen but she needed his reassurance. If he told her they would be safe, than simply they would be safe.

"You have my word beloved, that no harm will befall us without there being hell to pay."

She frowned slightly, it was not what she had wanted but it was more than enough. She pressed into the curve of his body and let his strong arms wrap around her. The heat of his body, the mere scent that clung to his skin soothed her. She pressed her cheek to his chest and felt his heart beating steadily.

His heart that she knew beat for her.

"I love you Sesshoumaru." She told him this time meeting his gaze.

A smile tugged at the corners of his lips and he kissed her, this time the true hunger he felt began to show.

"Care you prove it my angel?" He asked, a hint of wickedness shadowing his tone.

She gazed back at him surprised. "How?"

The demon lord brought his face a mere centimeter from her own. His lips hovered so close that she need only breathe and her lips would close the distance. He whispered along her skin.

"…Let me love you again."

Kagome sighed with relief and smiled up at him. "Aren't you tired of me yet?" She teased.

In an instant she was beneath him again, his face hovered just out of the reach of her lips. The wicked smile had returned and she shuddered in anticipation.

"I could do this all night and tomorrow my dear and never tire of you." He told her. His hardened length pressing on her abdomen told her so more than his words did.

"Goddess have mercy." She whispered.

Sesshoumaru frowned just slightly but it disappeared as quickly as it had come.

"I don't think it appropriate for you to summon your mother here with us in such a…precarious situation."

That forced a laugh out of her and she relaxed with a smile.

"Then the gods have mercy on me."

She purred and summoning her courage, slid a finger down Sesshoumaru's manhood. Sesshoumaru threw his head back and half growled have purred, stilling yet squirming under her touch.

"For I shall to sin."

When his eyes met her they had descended into a hazy crimson, but it did not scare her. Quite frankly it exciting her, something dark and dangerous inside of her craved that beast and she called to it.

Sesshoumaru's lips met hers as if he would devour her and she gave him the same fiery passion in return. And as the moon peaked in the sky, the two of them gave into themselves. For they knew their sin well, and sin they would till the break of dawn.

Well, I hope everyone is happy. This was my first lemon for Fanfiction and I hope I didn't disappoint. Thanks to everyone who has stuck by this story. The best is yet to come. Little clue about the next chapter wouldn't hurt now would it?

Our little demi-goddess gets a visit from her darker half, one that is completely infatuated with the demon lord. And they're coupling will quite literally shake the heavens. Till next time everyone.
