Disclaimer: No, I do not own Inuyasha or "Behind These Hazel Eyes". I do, however, own my humble collection of Sesshomaru pictures.
Behind These Sapphire Eyes
How could I have been so stupid? Kagome was the best person who has came into my life, and what did I do? I threw her away like a piece of trash.
How could I have let Kisho talk me into leaving her? I thought I could live without her, but I was wrong. She haunted my every dream. Whenever I close my eyes, I see her. Kagome, look at what you have done to this Lord Sesshomaru.
Kagome…I need you. I would do anything to be with you. I would even throw my pride away for you. I stopped pacing my study. Wait, that's it! I can go find her and apologize! With that in mind, I quickly wrote a note to Jaken and leaped off the balcony toward Kaede's village.
When I arrived at Kaede's hut, I detected a peculiar smell mingled in Kagome's scent. It was oddly familiar, yet I couldn't remember where it was from. I was about to enter when I heard Inuyasha speak.
"Kagome, did Sesshomaru rape you?" he said. I was furious, to say the least. I was tempted to go in and choke him until he told me when I froze. That smell, was similar to Inuyasha's mom's scent when she was pregnant with him. Did that mean that Kagome is…?
"Kagome, ye are with child," Kaede said. I was stunned. Kagome is pregnant… and I'm the father! I felt happiness swell in my heart until Kagome told them not to tell me. I couldn't believe it! She doesn't want me to know. I, Lord of the Western Lands, her lover, her mate, the father of her baby, was not to know my baby exists?
I felt anger replace happiness inside of me. How dare her! That human had the privilege to be my mate and now she's refusing to tell me that the baby is mine. I was going to burst in when she spoke again.
"No…he didn't. I…I love him…" I didn't know what to say…what to think. She loves me. So it wasn't a one-sided love. I lifted the cloth in the doorway and stepped in. I ignored Inuyasha's protest and moved swiftly to Kagome's side. I told them all to leave, but they didn't. Not one person moved until Kagome nodded.
"You heard, didn't you," she said softly. Her sorrow and pain radiated from her like an aura. I nodded. "What are you going to do now? It's going to be a hanyou, just like Inuyasha."
"Our child will be much more powerful than him."
"How can you be so sure? What if the baby isn't?"
"I will make sure my successor will be powerful."
"What will Kisho and the other lords say? Will you abandon me again?" I inwardly smirked. So, she was mad.
"I don't care what they say. I will silence them forever if they say anything about my child."
"Are…are you just coming to get me because you realized I'm pregnant?"
"No…I just found out when I came here. Kagome, I love you. I came back to apologize."
"Apologize? You know how to apologize?" I sighed at the bitterness in her voice.
"I know you are really mad at me right now…but what I'm saying this very moment is true. I wasn't thinking straight. I do love you."
"Then why did you tell me to leave? Do you how much that hurt? I just got over Inuyasha when you left me! I gave you everything! Mind, body, soul…I gave them all to you," she screamed. "I even opened up all of my sorrow to you. But, you picked power over me! How can I know if you won't do that again?" I wiped away her tears and pulled her into my arms. She started to sob uncontrollably.
I stayed there with her in my arms. When she stopped, I placed a kiss on her forehead. I then kissed her eyes, and finally, her soft lips. "I'm so sorry," I murmured. She opened her eyes and gazed into my eyes. I saw it, the forgiveness in her eyes. Our lips connected again. After a few moments, we parted.
"When do you want to go back, beloved mate?" I asked. I stroked her hair as she considered the question.
"Well, I want to stay a while longer with my friends. I also need to ask Kaede about how this pregnant business is going to be like. And…wait, did you call me mate?" I smirked.
"I marked you the first time we slept with each other." Seeing the puzzled look in her eyes, I reached to open her kimono. She stopped my hand.
"Uhh, can we wait until we go back to your castle? What if someone comes in?"
"Kagome, what are you thinking? You can't be that perverted, can you?" She reddened considerately. "I was just going to show you the mark." Bemused, I loosened her obi. I carefully pulled the left sleeve of her kimono down, to reveal her smooth shoulder. I held a mirror up to my teeth mark on the junction between her neck and shoulder. She gasped.
"When did you exactly mark me? I don't remember."
"Well, when you were still recovering from your climax, I bit you. Then, I licked it to heal it. My saliva contains a healing substance."
"Oh. Wait, am I supposed to bite you back?" I nodded. Blushing, she untied my sash and took my haori off. Kagome then tentatively kneeled up to reach my neck. She bit down on my left junction as hard as she can. I couldn't help but feel a wave of pleasure with her mouth on my skin. I felt her teeth break through my skin and couldn't stand it anymore. I pushed her to the ground and started to kiss and suck the skin on her neck. My right hand made its way into her kimono and cupped her right breast. I smiled into her skin as she arched her back. I was so absorbed into my ministrations on her body that I didn't know Inuyasha enter the hut.
He cleared his throat to get our attention. When we didn't give off any sign of having heard him, he spoke. "It's still only early afternoon, you know. If you can't stand to not touch each other until you go back, at least wait until dark. There are still people awake out there too." We quickly sat up. I wrapped my haori around her, as not to let Inuyasha see her revealed chest. "Come on, dinner is ready," continued Inuyasha. "By the looks of it though, it seems you guys are full already.
I stood and helped Kagome up. We started to the entrance when I realized Kagome's clothes were still not fixed correctly. Also making that observation, Inuyasha went out first.
"I feel like an animal," Kagome said. I chuckled.
"If that's how you feel now, wait until the baby is born. I won't let you sleep until I have my way with you." Kagome blushed and hurriedly fixed her kimono. I put my haori on again and we went out to join the rest of the group for dinner.
As I looked at Kagome during the meal, I felt a surge of content. Yes, my life would get better. I went over a few possible names, both male and female, for my child. I have a feeling I would need both. My pup, your mother and I will love you until we die. Kagome, I will also love you until the end of time.
