As rustle of the tree a few feet from her made her turn sharply, eyes widdening at the sight of the demon lord standing there stairing at her. "Sess...Sesshomaru!" she gasped 'Oh god how long has he been there!'

She stood up as he started walking towards her and she looked into his eyes and gasped agian seeing torrid of different emotions shining, one emotion stood out from the rest of them and she felt like she couldn't breath...becuase in those normally cold and hard eyes was the one thing she want to most from him...Love.

When he finally reached her they had about 3 inches between them. He brought his hand up to cup her face and felt a warmth shoot through his entire being as she leaned into his hand, her eyes shining, her tounge darting out to lick her now dry lips. He close the distance between them and whispered agiasnt her lips, " Show me...", and with that sealed his lip over hers.

She felt his other arm sliding around her waist to hold her up and she was thankful for that because she didn't think she could stand on her own.

He licked her bottom lip begging for entrance and she willing parted without hesitation. He was pleased by this and wasted no time in deepening the kiss. He pressed her closer to him and molded into him as if she belonged there.

Finally they broke apart, gasping for air but he didn't stop there he just trailed kisses across her jaw and down her neck, elicting a gasping moan from her, "Sesshou..", He looked at her, her eyes was glazed over in passion.

"I'm so sorry for pushing you away, I was so afraid to let anyone in that I...I" She cut him off with another kiss. " It's okay, I would have waited for as long as it took. But now that I finally have to chance... I love you Sesshomaru."

He felt a smile split his lips, " I love you too Kagome...", that being said he kissed her agian and then swept her up bridel style and as he carried her back into his humble abode, he asked her the question that was burning to be said "Will you be my Mate Kagome?", she smiled at him, "Took you long enough to ask! But yes I will be your mate, my love", he kissed her agian and head to his bed chambers taking her with him becuase he didn't want to wait any longer in making her his Mate.

And so for the rest of the night and into the wee morning hours only the moans, grunts and growls of both pleasure and love could be heard through out the castle.
