Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha or Sailor Moon.
A/n: yeah I'm sorry about taking so long but it took me forever to get my thoughts about this one cleared up and now I kind of have a clue as to where I want it go… and for some reason I kinda feel like complicating this fic a bit…
Her lungs were burning as she ran. When did the halls of this place get so long?!?! She stopped at a corner, her demon exterminator senses all alerted red in her mind and she grabbed the hem of the long kimono and moved, just in time because the wall cracked and Sesshoumaru was chasing after her. She looked behind her... the feral look gracing his face as he seemed to purposefully run slower than normal. She then looked forward and nearly ran into a door. She slid it open and ran into the garden and ducked behind some bushes. She stayed there hearing his feet slow even more to walking. Hastily she looked about her and saw the fountain in the garden. She carefully moved trying not to snag her blonde pigtails on anything and plunged her body into the cold water and then ran into some bushes again.
"…" His hearing let him know she had already been to the fountain. Slowly a feral smirk played across his features as he headed in that direction. He took his time putting his senses to the test while trying to ignore the rush he was getting from this chase. It was all rushing straight to his groin and gods he just knew it was going to be worth all the running around. Hell it was what he wanted her to do. Upon reaching the fountain he could see the remnants of her wet footprints in the dirt. A slow smirk crossed his features as he followed them. "You're being very messy Serenity."
He found himself following traces on her soggy footprints before thy stopped at a tree. With a graceful movement of grabbing his sword, Tokijin, the tree was gone. But no prize was found. How could he have underestimated her? She is, after all, one of two remaining demon exterminators. Closing his eyes to focus on his hearing he heard nothing. Wherever she was she had to either be staying very still or very speedy and he doubted it was the latter. He inhaled deeply as he quickly was becoming frustrated, but then his nose picked up on something. It had been the scent that ignited the need to chase her… Who would've guessed that her time to be in heat ran along the same time his had begun.
"So close…" He murmured turning before a thud was heard several feet behind him and the sound of her retreating footsteps echoed. He turned with all swiftness and sped after her. In the back of his mind he had to laugh because the thought of her clumsy self tripping once could very well end it all. He moved to follow the direction her scent had been leading him and he came across the furisode she had been wearing. That squelched the thought of her tripping… but it didn't mean it wouldn't be an easy ordeal. She was heading right into a corner.
"The man is a wild animal now!!" She muttered running in her yukata. "How did I get lost in this garden?!? Stupid man showing off with a maze garden…"
GRRRRRRRRRRROWL
"Oh god he's getting closer." She picked up the speed ignoring how cold she was getting from being wet, wearing only thin material, and the rushing wind. Suddenly she found her self skidding to a halt to not crash into the barrier and hurting herself once more.
"It keeps unwanted visitors at bay." His voice echoed in the back of her mind. She turned to look at him. "Serenity… You really are a vision of beauty." He approached her. Her face was flush from the mild exercise; her chest rose and settled with each breath she took. The white yukata stuck to her body both transparent and clingy. She backed up from him her bare heels hit the magical wall behind her.
"You stay at bay!!" She held her arms in front of her. He grabbed her wrists and yanked her into a hug. His palm then touched the cold rock behind her holding their bodies as close as he could get with his one arm. Right now he was damming his brother to hell for reducing him to one arm; one arm can't hold her tight. One arm can't grope her chest while the other holds her lower body in place as he ground the very need that started this chase against her.
"It about this time eight years ago…" He whispered. "I had felt hot for you… but not this badly…" He whispered with his lips brushing her neck. His breath seemed to be heavily ragged already, and it somewhat unnerved him to know for once he can't hide what he desires.
"What are you talking about?" She asked turning her face upwards. The moon was full and white and seemingly a little to the left and further behind an orange ball filled the sky, she had seen the moon of Venus before… only once before. Suddenly she thought of the others.
"Oh that's just disgusting." Luna murmured looking down a dark alley. The girls were just returning from one of the many youma fights they had.
"What is?" Serena's curiosity had her back up to see what Luna was looking at. Almost immediately the girl's face fell. "Ugh…" She said hearing it echo back to her from her friends.
"It's not really surprising…" Ami said dragging her friends away from looking at the stray dogs doing their business. "Some people think that the libido of dogs is tied to the moon. The closer the full moon the more likely they'll seek out a mate… but on the rare evening like tonight…" Ami pointed up to turn everyone's gaze to the sky… "The moon of Venus is strong and with twice the moon power Increases the need for an eternal mate. They say it actually makes the unmated types a little insane…"
"Yeah but it's probably all just some fairy tale made up to explain behavior like the Greeks and their tale for why echoes exist…" Lita said simply. "I mean really how does a narcissus flower grown because of a man name narcissus fell in love with his reflection causing himself to die and leave a flower in his legacy. Like I said made up…"
'Perhaps not…' Serena thought before tensing up a little bit. 'His tongue is licking my neck?!?!'
"Don't leave this time… please." He whispered in a way that isn't like Sesshoumaru immediately followed by a whimper as held her close to his body. She stood there trembling. Whether of being cold or just shocked at the emotion he revealed to her, she still wasn't sure.
'Is he…?' She felt more than her body trembling… his person was wavering and the barrier seemed to be the only thing holding them up at the moment. "Sesshoumaru…" She pushed away from him. For a moment a brief flash of anger and rejection crossed his golden gaze before pure fury remained in place.
"I hate you…" He growled out. She pursed her lips trying not cry at the declaration, hearing those words from him…they kinda hurt. "For leaving when I wanted you to be mine then… and I swore to never be that light with anyone… even you." A low rumbling emitted from his chest. "I hate you for the pain I felt then… I hate every fiber of your being to the point that if you were to leave again I'd surely die from the inside out. And in the corner..." He flexed his claws slightly. "…in the corner of my mind as small as could be was hope that things would be different…"
"Sesshoumaru… Get your thoughts together. I haven't seen you for about a decade give or take some days. You're in heat, and you can't possibly love me after what I did." She reached her fingers out to touch his arm. He jerked slightly.
"Nearly a decade or not…" He pressed her against the barrier. "I will not be denied by you because your scent betrays you." His body was heating up quickly at the close contact. Without even a second thought his body rubbed against her. "And I still want you…"
"Sesshoumaru, are you sure you-" She bit her lip feeling his hardening organ consistently rub against her center which was rapidly heating up.
"I want you to the point my body and soul calls for you. Many mating seasons have gone by; each time was spent alone hallucinating of you sometimes you'd appear, other times your scent haunted me. Now decide. Be mine or leave again."
"Sesshoumaru, I…" Her sentence was cut off by a soft moan that she had been trying to repress as his groin continually rubbed against hers. "Oh stars that feels good." She pressed her hips against his earning a forceful groan out of him as he pushed her harder against the wall. She looked into his face. It was plain as day he was feeling deep lustful feelings at the moment.
"Decide now… Be my woman forever or…" She brought her finger to his lips. She was positively glowing at the moment… literally.
"I know exactly what attracted us Sesshoumaru, and even if I were to leave I'll only come back because of that reason. No more words for the moment, it kills the feeling slowly." She smiled at him as her gold insignia illuminated on her forehead. "I'm cold..." She heard him bit back a slight growl. "I know your control is slipping…"
"You'll get sick with your human immune system." He muttered lifting her petit body and jumped. When they landed she could only gape… The room was almost completely and totally modern. There was a fire place like area on the far side of the room. A large futon was on the other side… she guessed by how soft it look it would feel almost like a mattress. On the wall a portrait had been painted and hung above the makeshift fireplace. Walking towards it she almost assumed the male was Sesshoumaru, but he wasn't. The eyes of this man were a deeper gold almost brown… his father maybe?
"Ooo…" She shuddered when she felt the warmth of the fire. "This feels good…"
"I could make you feel even better." Sesshoumaru's warm breath on her ear made her aware of his speed once more. He reached his arm around her. "No more procrastinating…" He whispered and she blushed. "My patience is gone now, Serenity. My unstained beauty."
"So you knew…" She whispered before jerking when his hand lowered to touch her.
"I haven't hurt you yet." His claws traced every possible line and curve of her there. "But if you keep procrastinating… I might, unintentionally." He slipped his finger over her and groaned.
"Sesshoumaru…" She gasped… He pulled her so her bottom came in contact with his body. He smirked listening to her soft squeaks as he touched her. "Teasing is mean Sesshoumaru!!" The sentence came out airier than intended but it couldn't be helped...
Her breathing sped up as the movements of his fingers sped up. Every little moan that she emitted from her body went straight to his groin. Gritting his teeth he tried to imagine how much longer he could hold out...
"Sesshoumaru-sama…" She now had both hands on the wall above the fireplace.
"Say it again…" He whispered.
"Sesshoumaru-sama, please…" Her vocals went higher in pitch as her fingertips slid across the cool wall turning into small fists.
"When you say that I just want to pound you like a madman… Do you scream when you go over the edge?" He asked. "Or do you stifle them into soft moans??" He felt her legs weakening so he simply pressed himself harder against her bottom to hold her, not once stopping his relentless hands.
"Sesshoumaru-sama, Oh GODS…" Her words grew louder in. Her eyes pinched shut, her face flushed, and mouth open to sound the released tension he created within her. He couldn't help the smirk of true pride that graced his usually emotionless face.
"Now…" He lifted her carrying her to the bed. His control had been steadily slipping and now he just had to have her.
Setting her on the thick mat he proceeded to strip himself of his clothing while she got rid of the white material she had been wearing. When he turned back to her his golden eyes flashed looking at her body. He watched her blue eyes take in his nude form and froze staring at his heavily aroused state. A smile of approval graced her naïve features and he leaned in to kiss her rosy lips. She moaned again, seemingly her body tight and sensitive to the touch like a tightly pulled string. Just the right touch could snap it. And snap it would be his next goal if not before he got his release then after…
"Sesshoumaru…" She whispered.
"Hush…" His breaths were coming out jagged and shaky. His control was definitely depleted. Her hands gripped his forearm; her nails digging into his flesh.
"Faster…" She whimpered in a way that cracked what little control remained. He pushed himself; reaching for his release. Growls rumbled deep in his chest before he let the sound waft to her ears. A smirk played on her face as she reached and pinched his butt making him freeze and just let it all go. And let go he did with a loud roar that was sure to wake every being in the hundred mile radius. She laid there watching his whole body tense with his mane of silver brushing her legs his face leaning up towards the ceiling as the veins in his neck popped out with the roar of pure ecstasy rolled through his body.
"Serenity…" He uttered out between his small growls of the final waves.
"hmm?"
"You didn't…"
"Once was fine for me…" She ran her fingers through his silver mane. "We've got other times love… Rest now…"
"Not until you're done." He grinned sliding his head towards lower grounds.
