Chapter:3
Wet Robe and Confusion.
I felt breath on my neck, after the morning sun had started to peek through the wide spread balcony window, waking me from my delicate slumber. The room was filled with the early suns rays as I yawned."I see you've been awoken by the early morning sun." A calm serene voice arose from the breath that I had felt on my neck.
"I do not wish to speak to you, you're a sick monster." The serene voice was enraged at my last comment, as I was brought face to face with the demon once again.
"I am your master, and you will listen to my every word and not question me or call me such names ever again," His body lowered over mine. Heat embraced me and his body clashed with mine.
Silver hair rushed down to my sides and he gazed into my eyes. Burning lust flew through my veins. I felt as if his gaze was connecting to my body and seducing me and with lust flying through my heart. "Your body cries for me."
His facial expression turned to a stern yet childish one. "My body cries for no one."
I pulled my throbbing body from beneath him and stood up from the bed. "Yes, your body cries for me."
I will not be subdued by your emotion for me." I rapped my robe round my body, while walking to the door.
His body swiftly appeared before me. His fangs were hanging out of his mouth with his tongue licking his lower lip. "Did you not hear me?"
I pressed past him ignoring his words. Swinging the door open, I walked out of the room. My body still was throbbing, not because of pleasure but of pain. I felt disgusted as I realized what was wrong. 'My limbs below my waist feel so tired today.' My mind began to play games. 'What if you were raped by this demon? What will you do if this is true?' Letting my legs crumble beneath me, I collapsed to the ground.
"No, this can not be, not with him, not here." A memory flashed through my head. He had raped me, but I had somehow in some way blocked it out trying not to remember.
A shadow fell over me, making me turn. "Do not try and forget what we did." The silhouette of a tall light skinned demon made me move backward.
His body was more magnificent than the clothing he wore when he took me. His legs were long and muscular, arms that looked like rocky hill's that descending upward into the valleys of his chest. Only a small piece of cloth covered his manhood.
He reached his hand to help me up. Instead he grabbed my long blue highlighted black hair and lifted me to his arms. That might hurt
"Jaken set my mate a place at the table by my side." I looked to see the little toad open a door from where I was lying before in the bed with the demon that now held me.
"Yes, master," The toad had somehow regenerated its head. "Your bath is set master. I left your armor and a robe for your mate as well. My eyes widened at the toads words. "Mate?" I whispered softly.
"Yes, mate, my mate." I couldn't believe his words. I didn't even know his name. 'I would choose Inuyasha over him any day.'
"Why would he leave me a robe?" Silence was shared, with no answer. The demon began to walk to one of the many doors within the hallway.
Breaking the silence I asked once more. "Why would he leave me a robe in your bath?"
He opened the door revealing a huge bath with red lilies drawn on its long side. "You are my mate and you will no longer bathe without me by your side."
My heart slipped and my mind went crazy. I slapped him in the face. "I refuse to do anything of that sort." I slapped him again only this time making him angry.
"How dare you disrespect me in such a way, you're my mate, and you will do as I say." His lips curled up into a grinch-like smile making me cringe. He was going to hurt me or worse.
"You bastard?" The memory of what happened flooded my mind blocking my thoughts.
"In days I'll be able to smell a child within you". He dropped me in the tub.
The robe I had worn to bed was now weighing me down. "You lie. I will never bare the child of a beast like you."
"But you will, and you will never speak to me like that again." He grabbed the top of the robe and pulled it off of me, leaving me bare to his gaze. I was naked both physically and mentally as his grin spread across his face like the Cheshire Cat from Alice in wonderland. It didn't last as I watched it become emotionless once more.
I pulled my right arm over my breast and my left hand amongst my woman- hood. "Leave me alone." Tears fell from my eyes.
His emotionless face stayed the same for a few moments, and changed to an innocent look. "Jaken? Bring me the fur father left me for my mate." The small toad shuffled from the door side and came back covered in white fur looking mess. "Here you are master." The toad Jaken lifted the mess to his master before he left the room.
"This is my father's fur he left it for my mate", he told me it would protect her in every way." The cold would never affect her because the fur keeps thy warm. Heat will be reflected and the fur will make the temperature perfect for a midsummer day. Attacks from anyone will be deflected and sent back to the attacker two times stronger. If you are ever injured it will heal you." He set the fur down and placed his hand on my head.
I looked up at him wondering why he had his hand on my head. Either he was going to rub me like his pet dog or stuff me personally into the fur by my hair I guessed. "You have a cold, and you need to eat" His sudden interest in my health dumbfounded me.
'Why is he so concerned?' "I need my backpacks, and they have all my medical supplies in them." What is your name?" I sat up in the bath looking at the worried demon. He actually looked distraught by my temperature. Did he really care if I were sick or was it a game?
"I'll get that from my brother, and my name is not important because you'll know me as mate." He lifted me from the bath and covered me with a towel "Sesshoumaru" He replied softly in my ear. I was pacified by his calm voice and some of the tense feeling retracted at the sound.
I was no longer angry at the demon that I know knew as Sesshoumaru my mate. Ha you thought Inuyasha was coming right.
"Get up Shippou!" I yelled at the small sleeping fox demon that only rolled over and bit me.
"Hanyou you try to hard." The Kitsune sat up and bit me again. "See"
"You little brat!" I grabbed him by his tail and flung him on top of the larger backpack of Charha's. "Time to go!" Oh look your right he is.
He took me back to his chambers and laid me down in his bed. "Jaken bring her breakfast to my chamber I'll be down in a bit."
"I'm not hungry and I'm just going to sleep." He pulled the thick white covers over my cold body.
"You will eat and I'll see to it." He sat at my side and pulled me up to his side keeping me covered." My child will need all the nutrients possible."
"Yeah sure." The thought of a child made me disgusted with myself. Any or all promises were broken, because of my new predicament. "A child"
"Your brother, he is half demon right?"
"Eat, Yes he is why are you asking when you already knew the answer?" He tried to feed me rice but I turned my head. "Eat"
"I am not hungry, and your child will be half demon." Just like your brother and you'll be disgusted by him as well. I turned away from my new mate. "Is that not true"?
"My child will be blessed with your special strengths, and he will be a half demon with strong human abilities." He set the tray down on the bed and left me alone in the room.
'I better eat or he'll be angry, he can probably smell the food if I try and hide it.' I sat back and took small amounts of the bread and riddled at the theme. "How does he expect to live on rice and bread, at least he didn't try to feed me meat".
I looked at the chopsticks and wondered how I was supposed to use them. "Stupid forks and spoons, mom should have just made me eat with my hands."
The door cracked open and the toad Jaken looked in. "Do you want anything to drink, and are you done?"
I smacked the door hitting the toad in his head. "Yup and yes I'm done." I opened the door and picked the toad up. "Where's your master, Sesshoumaru?"
"He's eating, something you didn't do, He will be very angry with you for that." I dropped him on the floor and stepped on his head. It will grow back
"Yeah so, where's the living room I really can't stand staying in this room." I pressed my foot down harder on the toad.
"Yeah there is one, but you're supposed to stay here." He wiggled under my foot."
I pulled my foot off of his head. "Where is it?"
"Down the spiral staircase through that door." He pointed to a door next to a wardrobe.
"What do you think your doing?" Sesshoumaru was waiting behind the door.
"Jaken bring my fathers fur to this room. Have her dress in it then bring her to me." He shoved me back into the room and closed the door. I was now alone again with the toad who looked disgusted with me.
"Damn, what is his problem? Hell all I wanted to do is leave this room. How does a person live with such a tyrant reining over them?" I asked no one in particular. Jaken left the room and scurried back in covered with the fur robe.
"I'm not wearing that, nope no way. Its fur, I'm not like that, I can't wear fur it's against my beliefs." I threw myself back on the bed and curled up next to one of the huge pillows. 'Smells good wonder who does his laundry.'
"Master said to dress you and bring you to him." The toad grabbed my arm and pulled me up out of the bed.
"I said no!" I pulled away from him and flipped back onto the bed.
"What he said is the rules." The toad grabbed my arm again and pulled me up. "Put it on, I don't want my head to be gone again."
I put it on angered that I didn't want to wear the fur. "See how does it look?"
The white fur was soft like a plush toy. It had red marks on the arms and down the front. It was almost like a full-length coat, but on the inside were pants to keep my legs warm.
"Master's father had it made for his mother, and out of his own fur. She died before the robes keeper would give it to her. The keeper gave it to the master and told him to give it to his mate." I sat down letting the new information swirl around in my mind.
"So this is his father's fur?" I sat down on the bed, and looked at the toad frankly. Boy I had been I bitch about putting it on when it actually was a big thing to my mate.
"Yes, he gave it to his son so his power could live on and protect people he loved." The toad grabbed my hand and pulled me up. "Now we go see the master." The guy's father had this robe made from his own fur to protect me the one his son must love.
I was led down the spiral staircase to a room with fur-covered cushions spread about it. Sesshoumaru was in the middle sitting in an Indian-Style posture with his back turned to where we stood on the stairs.
"Master, she is ready." I noticed the demon Sesshoumaru was in his armor. He was ready to fight with two swords at one side. One with a much larger handle than the rest.
"Jaken, find me a bow and some arrows." My mate turned towards us and gestured for me to sit with him. 'He is my mate, and he apparently has some kind of love for me. I have but one choice listen or be punished.'
I came to his side and sat beside him in the same way he sat. "Yes?"
"I have business to attend to and you will come with me." He pulled me closer to his side.
"Yes" 'I can't say too much or he'll probably be angered with me.' I knew he had a short temper but for some strange reason I thought it was shorter than that hot head Hanyou.
"You're not much for words. Did it finally get through your thick human head I'm stronger than you?" He picked me up and placed me on his lap.
I moved away from him quickly. "Sesshoumaru I may be your mate, but I still want to be left alone, I'm not ready."
"Stupid Bitch what is your problem. I fed you, and clothed you yet you still dislike me. Why?" He leaned his body in on mine and held my hands down. "No slapping this time!"
"I don't have the respect for you to care. Why do you want me to come with you? You have armor on, and have two swords in sheaths at your side." I stood up yanking my hands away from him.
I slapped him once. "Stupid wench", I slapped him again. "Stop disrespecting me?" I slapped him once more. It felt like a great idea to disapprove at the time.
"No! I will not stop slapping you until you get it through your thick youkai head. I want respect from you and space." I slapped him and walked half way out the room when I tripped over the toad. "I'll slap you too!" I growled
"Get back here mate, your not staying here alone." I turned around and saw an angry demon grab the bow from the toad. "Come Get your bow and follow me."
"No!" I wanted to rest from all of last nights happenings and all that Sesshoumaru wanted was for me to listen to him. "Ha your not making me go anywhere."
He threw his armor over his shoulder and stood up. "I have no time for this mate. Get your bow now!"
I stared at the demon that now had red eyes. "No." 'I'm dead now too bad I didn't tell him to die.' "Die!"
"You act like a child, how can I deal with you and get your possessions at the same time?" He walked up to me as I began to quiver slightly under his gaze.
"I have choices too!" I leaned back against the wall behind me." If I choose not to go then I choose not to go. And I choose that. I would have my stuff if you weren't a coward."
His eyes dropped. "How am I a coward?" He crouched down in front of me and looked at me awkwardly, his head cocked to the side.
I in turn stole his gaze and sent it back at him." Instead of fighting your brother for me, you kidnapped me and ran from him." I titled my head to the side and gave him puppy eyes to calm his now rising temper.
"I didn't fight my brother for you, because I didn't want you to get hurt." His hand rose up to my arm. "Now let's go."
He pulled me up and placed me gently on his back. "You didn't want to hurt me?"
I fearlessly placed my hands down on his strong front side and gripped his kimono. "My brother always hurts the ones he loves, when it comes to fighting me."
Jaken tethered the straps of a bamboo arrow case around my shoulder and hooked the carved bow around it. "What do you mean he hurts the ones he loves?"
The toad placed armor chastity around my waist and locked it to Sesshoumaru's iron chest armor. "He once caused the death of Kikyou. He was in love with her, but he betrayed her. He wanted to be a full demon and this gave some one named Naraku reason to take the form of him. Naraku attacked Kikyou where she and Inuyasha were to meet striking a fatal blow she pulled together the strength and sealed my brother to a tree for an eternity but your grandmother freed him 60 years after he was sealed. Your grandmother shattered the Shikon no tama twice once when she met Inuyasha and once again when she felt betrayed by him. She left for good but came back to promise you to him. He only wants you to find the Shikon shards for him and that's it." He adjusted me like I was a backpack.
"So he's afraid of commitment, all guys are like that." I tighten me grip on his kimono.
"Not all men are like him. I may kill people, but I wouldn't hurt the one I love." He walked to the castle door Jaken had opened.
I could see the wind blow leaves of the trees as Sesshoumaru carried me out side on his back. "Men are beast. They fight all the time and eat like pigs." I said trying not to laugh at how right I was about they guys in my era.
Sesshoumaru stopped and smelled the air. "I am not a beast nor do I eat like a pig."
I sighed and laid my head down on his shoulder. I could feel the long night catching up with me. "Oh you don't act like a beast. That's a lie. You pulled me around by my hair and dropped me in scolding hot water. Tell me you thought that was humane?"
He began to run at a speed that scared me. 'How could a demon have the ability to run faster than a car?'
"How am I a beast?" I turned my head over to look at his face. "You were acting like a child, who never listened to anyone in your whole life." He growled.
"I just don't like listening to people. I can't trust." I looked up and saw a red black and yellow flash of color. "What was that?"
Sesshoumaru stopped and smelled the cold brisk air. "My brother."
Inuyasha appeared before us straddled by both of my bags and Shippou. "Why is she so close to you bastard?" Inuyasha snarled with his fangs bared at my mate.
He was enraged by what he saw. I said nothing. "She is my mate little brother. You see she wears the garments that father made of his own fur for my mate. She also wears the chastity that bears my scent, and it's engraved with my name." He unlocked me form his back leaving the chastity beat locked around my waist.
"Hide behind a tree somewhere mate far from where I stand." I didn't know each brother had a plan of use for me. Inuyasha motives were to get the shards of the Shikon No Tama but Sesshoumaru's were blurred. All I had gotten from him was that he wanted me as his mate.
"Yes Sesshoumaru." I walked 20 yards or so from where he stood making sure not to go too far into the dark forest, which surrounded us. This was a good idea to me because I didn't want a repeat of the ogre encounter.
"She called you by your name, not mate." The hanyou laughed. "All though she does smell like you." His laughter only lasted a few moments before he realized I was truly the mate of his brother. A low growl came from the hanyou and than he pulled a transformed sword. The tesusaiga was what my Gram had told me was the proper name for it.
"Oh so you think you can beat me with a transformed tesusaiga." Sesshoumaru drew a sword as well, but his glowed the eerie magenta color like it had the night before when he abducted me from Inuyasha. I had noticed by chance as he carried me away through the forest. It pulsed with the eerie glow with the beat of a heart.
"You bastard, what right do you have to touch what was promised to me!" Inuyasha attacked in full force. His fang also beat like heart as he closed in on my mate.OPPS CLIFFHANGER. Tell me who you think will win. Peace out Charms.
