Hello every, I am glad to here that my last chapter moved some of you. I did have a question that i did wished to answer.

The name Kisho means one who knows his own mind. I have tried to make him as subborn as possible for him to show that.

****Warning**** This chapter does contain a sex sceen in it. I would have to say LEAMON content. Please let me know if you feel i should change the rating on it. YOu have all been warned now.

Disclaimer: Like before I don't own INuyasha or any of the other characters they belong to Rumik Takahashi.

Now on to the story.

Chapter 7: Passions.

Around noon, Kagome had wondered the halls looking for the children for the last hour. But she hadn't seen them or Jaken at all. She knew Sesshoumaru was here but she couldn't find any one else and she really didn't want to be around Sesshoumaru right now. It just felt weird, and it hurt. She wasn't sure why it hurt so bad to be around him but it hurt. It hurt her as bad as when she was call Kikyou by Inuyasha.

She stopped in her tracks. When did she gain such strong feelings for him? She groaned to herself not to think about this now and focus on finding the children. He had made his feelings clear, even if he was a cold as ice, he made himself clear. "Where could they have gone?"

"I sent them out for the day," Sesshoumaru watched her jump when she heard his voice. She turned to him but didn't let her gaze meet his, instead she seemed to be looking around him or through him. He stepped closer to her, and put his hand under her chin and eased her blue eyes to meet his golden ones. He had to see her eyes, he felt like he wasn't going to be able to speak if he couldn't, see them.

"I was stupid," his voice was low and he brought his arms to brace on her shoulders. He could feel her tense under her blue sweeter. Her eyes glistened with confusion and tears. He knew she had to be confused beyond all doubt now. But she also smelled of fear. He wasn't sure what she was afraid of but he didn't like her being afraid near him anymore.

"You… where… stupid, But you… You" a single tear rolled down her cheek as she bit her lip willing others not to spill from her brilliant eyes.

"I didn't mean to hurt you," he took his hand and wiped the tear from her face, "I was trying to protect you."

"FROM WHAT!!," she snapped at him He was quite taken back by how her mood changed that fast at him. It went from fear and sadness, that of anger in an instant. He didn't think about her tone towards him or the fact that he was behaving unnaturally right now. He just had to get her to understand.

"From me," he snapped back.

Kagome stood there in awe, she brought her hands up to her chest and held them together near her heart. Her heart was beating so fast it was hurting her ears, she tried to calm it down but it wouldn't. She looked away from him as her cheeks flushed, relief swam over her. It like a huge weight had been lifted off her heart, but she was angry with him, angry for him not telling her sooner, for making her think things. Why had he been so cold? Her hands turned into fist. "Why do you have to be Mr. Ice man? I mean do you have any feelings at all?

"Ice man, I am not a man, and I am not mad out of ice.?" He looked at her questionly unsure why she called him an elemental youkai, surely she knew he was not. "and I do have feelings. Even if you don't know about them." He pulled himself from confusion, and focused and what was going on.

"Why are you so cold towards people? You act like you are afraid to let anyone see anything but that stupid Stoic face you where." She wanted to understand him, she needed to understand why he was that way. She didn't think that he understood that was something she needed to know about him.

"You have no right to judge me! You don't know anything about me." He hadn't meant it to sound like that but he narrowed his eyes on her.

"That is because you never talk." He saw a fire in her like she had when she shot the Tetsusaiga with her arrow a year ago.

"I have never had a reason, till now." Kagome's eyes widened slightly did she hear right. She at that moment didn't feel like being angry at him any more. She didn't know what she felt right now other than surprise. Maybe he was so cold because no one had ever cared enough to find out what was going on in his head. "Then you?"

"Care for you? Yes. I wasn't trying to hurt you." He pulled her closer to him as he took in her scent and noted she was still in heat. He pushed back his basic instinct, "I didn't want to do something that you didn't want, and would hate me for."

"Didn't want? Hurt me? Hate you?" she looked slightly confused as to how he was going to hurt her.

He looked down at her; he was not quite sure how to proceed. He knew that she was sensitive to many things and he figured she would be like most human females on this subject. He thought for a long second, "When females are like you are, youkai males are driven by the primal need to mate. I didn't want to force that on you." He ran his hand through her hair allowing her to process the information. It didn't take her long to figure out what he was referring to.

She shook her head then her eyes went wide. "Like me… Oh MY GOD!!! You can tell that stuff!!" She turned away quickly her cheeks a blaze, nervousness in her scent, as she twisted uncomfortably near him.

He allowed him self to smile at her reaction to what he said. He wished she hadn't yelled but he didn't care now. Then wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close to him. "That is why I left that day. I have found that some where in these three weeks I have come to care very deeply for you," his voice trailed off as he inhaled deeply the scent of her hair, as he paused. "And would like to ask you to stay here with me and be my mate, Kagome." His voice was small and nothing like he thought he could have ever sounded like.

She turned around her gaze met his, her thoughts raced through her mind. 'He cares for me. He just proposed. Well as much of a proposal as I will get from him. I care for him so much, I don't ever really want to leave him.' 'What about Inuyasha? What about your feelings for him?' 'They are still there but he will never love me for being Kagome, he will love me because I am Kikyou's reincarnation. Sesshoumaru loves me for me. There is so much more to him than I thought. He is not the pure cold blooded killer I thought he was. There is a kinder side. What about my family though what will they think? Will they be able to get by with out me? No, they will be happy if I am happy. But what about children will he hate them like he hates Inuyasha. I don't think I could live if he hated our children like that and…'

"Kagome" the words broke her thoughts. Then she noticed that Sesshoumaru's face wasn't a stoic mask, he seemed nervous waiting for her answer, his voice had carried a degree of nervousness about it. His eyes told that his heart could be easily broken at any second.

"I… I… Want to but." She looked down at his chest unsure if she wanted to hear the answer. But she had to ask it was important to her. "What about children, they would all be like…"

"Inuyasha," His voice rang out, seeing as he considered that, "I know, but it would be a life we created so I would cherish any pups we have, just as I cherish you. So much has changed so quickly, things I never thought possible." For the first time since she saw him Sesshoumaru looked afraid. Afraid he might lose her. She reached up and touched the lines on his face with her hand and smiled up at him.

He was right so much has changed in a short time. She found a love after Inuyasha that would cherish her, and love her for being her. Deep down she knew that she fell in love with him the on that day in the dojo. She no longer felt the pain of sadness that she would feel after Inuyasha and Kikyou kissed. She felt warm and at peace with his touch, his warmth.

"Hai, Sesshoumaru, I would love to." She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed his lips, as he squeezed her tighter to his body, wanting to be as close as he could to her. Neither ever wanted it to end, the peace it brought them knowing that the other loved them brought such joy to their hearts.

When they finally broke the kiss, he looked down at her, and gave her a predatory grin and picked her up, the way one would pick up his new bride and ran down the hall.

She let out a yelp of surprise, as she grabbed on to his neck, and gazed in to his eyes. She knew where he was taking her. Her stomach turn slightly, and she realized she was afraid. But of what she wasn't sure.

Once they where in his chambers, he laid her on the bed and gently kissed her lips. He started to slowly trail kisses down her neck then he kissed where her shoulder and neck met. The place he would mark her, so that no other would be able to have her.

She gasped when she felt his hand under her shit running his claw hand over her breast, and down her side. She could feel his smile against her neck as he went over the curves of her body slowly as if he where memorizing them.

He pulled his hand out of her shirt and pulled it over her head, causing her raven locks of hair to rain back down on her shoulders He touched the straps of her bra, and started to slowly move them off her shoulders but frowned when he found it still covered her breast from his view.

Kagome chuckled, when she saw he could not remove her bra, and reached back and undid the clasp causing the fabric to loosen around her. He slowly pulled off the strange material, savoring every sight of her. She moved her arms to cover herself from his view, suddenly allowing her fear to take control. He grabbed her hands and slowly moved them away so he could gaze at her beauty.

"Do not hide yourself from me," He leaned down and kissed her, then went to her ear, she couldn't help but giggle slightly at his breath on it, "You have nothing to be afraid of, love." He pulled back slightly as he began to pull the top of his kimono off. Kagome ran her hands over every line of his well muscled chest as he continued to pulling off the rest of their cloths.

Kagome froze under his gaze as he looked at her. She was almost terrified about doing this, but she wanted to do it. She wanted to make love to him, to mate with him. She wasn't sure why she was afraid of him touching her in this way. 'It is because you still don't want to give up on Inuyasha isn't it? Well if he can't be happy if your happy then he doesn't really care.' She bit her lip torn by some strange type of guilt.

Sesshoumaru gazed into her eyes, seeing there distant look. He kissed her neck again taking in her sweet scent, and the same sweetness her skin tasted like. He noticed that she was terribly afraid of something as well as a longing in her, but he could smell her desire. He had to pull her back to him and put her fear to rest.

He kissed her roughly, causing her to snap back into the moment. After she did he eased the kiss, into one of pure passion. He allowed his hand to trail gentle down her side causing her to squirm at his touch. He smiled when he found out she was ticklish. He released her from the kiss allowing her to breath.

He ran his other hand down her chest allowing it to stop at her breast. He ran his hand over her taught nipple, then gently started messaging her breast until he heard her moan slightly to his touch. He kissed her lips then trailed kisses down her neck again and a cross her chest until he was nibbling on her breast. He rolled his tongue over it, and he felt her take in a sharp breath as her scent intensified.

Her hand entwined in his hair, no longer fearing what was going to happen, he was being so gentle and only worried about her. He let his other hand roam to her other breast, taking the nipple in his fingers. As he slowly started kissed long her stomach letting he tongue dart out every now and then, until he reach her belly button, he swirled his tongue around it and she let out a small giggle.

He made his way back up and claimed her lips with his and he continued playing with her breast. He ran his hand down past her stomach and slipped his finger into her moist core. She ached up as he did pushing her hands against him as he probed the depths of her body. He inserted another finger, and began to slowly stretch her so as to make his as easy for her as possible when he inserted into her. She moan again as he continued to bring her closer to climax.

She closed her eyes allowing the sensations to fill her body. She was both overjoyed and afraid at what was building in her. It was something that she had never felt before, yet it was bring her the greatest pleasure.

Her eyes where closed and she responded to his every touch like it was heaven. He was glad he could give her so much pleasure. He could smell her scent peak as she neared her sexual ecstasy. He stopped his probing and place himself on top of her as kissed her. When her eyes opened to look at him for why he had stopped, a look of pure concern was on his face. She was unsure exactly why until he spoke softly in her ear.

"Are you sure? This is most likely going to hurt quite badly" Her eyes widened she hadn't thought about that, she hadn't thought about it hurting. But it was a pain that she knew was important to endure, she trusted him not to hurt her if he could help it. His eyes where full of concern asking, if she wanted to go through this pain. She brought her hands up to his face and kissed him. When she pulled back she nodded, he kissed her forehead then her lips.

He thrust himself into her as he sank his fangs into her, biting her neck. She cried out in such pain, Sesshoumaru though his heart was going to break. He had not wanted to hurt he like this. She dug her nails into his back, he ignored the pain in his back and the blood he felt from her doing so. Right now all he wanted to do was ease her pain. He licked the bite he gave her, more to sooth her pain, and stop the bleeding. He looked pain stakingly, into her tearful eyes as he sat there on top of her afraid to move, just allowing her body to adjust to him as he whispered apologies to her, and how much he care for her, kissing away her tears.

After a minute she relaxed and she looked up at him with eyes that were no longer filled with pain, but love. She raised herself up and kissing him as he began to slowly rock back and forth. He buried his head in her neck as he listened to her moan as he slowly went deeper into her. As she relaxed more her hips started to move along with his and he began to rock harder against her body, moving his hand to her hips as she ached her back, relishing in the feeling he was giving her.

Her hands grabbed the futon, as she neared her climax again. He began to thrust harder and faster, causing her to cry out his name as she tighten her legs around him, and again brought her hand up to his back and was digging into it with her nails.

She looked at him unsure of the feeling inside her. She closed her eyes; he began to thrust himself into her she began to feel like something was going to explode from her if he didn't stop. As the motions got harder and faster she could see his eyes start to redden. She called his name and could feel herself starting to lose control. She tensed as she cried out at her release then felt Sesshoumaru grab on to her tighter as she felt him tense, then release, as well.

Sesshoumaru rested himself down on her allowing her full scent to wash over him as they both laid there panting Kagome wrapped her arms around him and just enjoyed the comforting feeling of his embrace. He pulled up and she winced as he pulled out of her.

He laid on his side next to her and pulled her closer to him. He kissed his mark on her neck then laid his head on her, allowing them both to relax. He felt her hand go up to her neck and touch his mark.

"Wha…" she turned her head to see his eyes.

"It means you are mine, and that I am ours." She smiled as she turned herself to embrace him in a hug. They sat there holding each other, not feeling the need to say anything more. Kagome slowly drifted off to sleep in his arms. He kissed her forehead then allowed himself to do the same.

The two lovers slept peacefully, their hearts now calmed by the love they felt for each other. Both felt an inner peace that they found in the other's love, neither wanting to leave the others embrace.

Sesshoumaru awoke near sunset, and looked lovingly at the sleeping woman in his arms. He kissed her again, as she began to stir. She smiled at him as she looked into his golden eyes. She reached up her hand and cupped his face as she kissed his lips in a sweet embrace.

"I love you." She whispered as if it was some secret meant for his ears only.

He smiled at her, "And I you." He kissed her fore head.

They headed to the bath house. Cleaning up before the children got home. Sesshoumaru had given her a blue kimono with a white flower pattern on it and a silver sash with dark blue swirl on it. While he wore his normal attire.

-----

Jaken was chasing the two into the gate, when they got out to the court yard. Jaken hit the ground when he was blindsided by a rock, when he muttered something about Rin. Jaken chased the children about the court yard losing the battle to catch them. Every time he would mutter some curse about either child he was hit with something from the other.

Kagome and Sesshoumaru both laughed at the scene that played out before them, then called to the children, greeting them with open arms as Jaken fell to the ground exhausted.

After dinner both children where, too, exhausted from the days events. They were lovingly put to bed, as the two adults two did the same. Today had been a very eventful day for just about everyone.
