My Tormentor
Chapter
2
I'm glad it was you.
Inuyasha would never forget those words, or would he forgive them. He recalled them again and again in those next days while he lay chained to that bed.
She had collapsed onto his chest when it was over, her tears wetting his skin. She had found no pleasure in their union, but she had gotten what she wanted. And before she left him, she had touched his cheek and whispered, "I glad it was you,' and his hate had increased tenfold.
Her servant had come after that, to tend to his wounds. The older woman had clucked her tongue over what he had done to himself, but she had also found the blood-encrusted lump on his head and cleaned that, too.
He had let her.
Devastated by the humiliation and failure, he no longer cared just then what was done to him. Nor had it bothered him when the man with the blue eyes came in later to stare at the blood and seed still wet on his loins with an odd mixture of fury and satisfaction in his eyes.
'She told me you fought her. That is good, or I think I will kill you now for what you had of her."
The man had turned around and left after that, nor had Inuyasha seen him again. But those few words had given him a wealth of information.
He knew that they meant to kill him once he was of no use. They didn't want money from him. They wanted only the baby he might already have planted in the wench's womb. He also knew the man was jealous of him, and would take pleasure in killing him.
Still he did not care, not the next day, not about anything. He did not even speak when his gag was removed. He was like a lifeless doll except when that wench came back to torture him again with her hands.
He couldn't tell if it was nighttime or not for there were no window in the room. And only then did he became alive again, his fury driving him mad. His thrashing loosed his bandages, embedding the iron manacles deeper in his raw flesh.
But she was patient that second night. She did not try to touch him until he had worn himself out. And she avoided getting on the bed until he was nearly full ready for her.
Three times she visited him that second night, throughout the night, and three times the next, waking him if she needed to. Each time, took longer than before, with his body already sated, yet that did not stop her.
She had him under her mercy.
She examined him fully in the guise of caressing him to readiness, everywhere, but mostly between his legs.
She was fascinated by his penis, brought her face and breath close to it, yet never kiss it like she promised she would do on the first night. The mere thought that she had such a big effect on him sent another tinge of humiliation through him again.
And he could not prevent any of it, could not stop her, could not smite her with a look or put the fear back in her eyes.
She used him, she drained him, she no longer displayed the least remorse. She had no mercy whatsoever.
And he wanted revenge so bad. And that was what he was thinking about on the third day if he only escape from this hell of a place. And to think he would give her a home on the first day.
Yea...he will give her a home...in his dungeon.
"Tell me her name." He asks that old lady when she had came in to feed him.
It was the first time he had spoken to her and found out that her name was Kaede.
"You do not need to know."
"My men will find me, babaa-chan. You better cooperate with me now."
She snorted at him and continue to feed him. "You were alone when taken."
"I was at my hotel when they barged in. Did you expect me to have a bunch of ladies on my bed when you guys find me? Or did you expect my whole family to be there at the hotel with me?"
Such coldness had entered his tone. Kaede was suddenly afraid of him, even though he was bound fast. Then she scoffed at herself and at him.
"I don't believe you. Kouga would never kidnap a man of such great importance."
"Release me."
Kaede laughed and shook her head. "If I had the key I would not use it until my lady has what she needs of you."
She did not add that Kagome had already asks her to find where the key is.
Kaede sighed and look at the man before her. He was quite handsome but he had such a cruel look on his face. It sends a chill down a person spine if it was directed at him or her.
"I demand you to release me or I will send my men to kill every single last bitches you—"
Kaede stuffed the gag back in his mouth and stood up and left him. Inuyasha sunk back into pure fury. He tugged at the chains and winced at the pain shooting down his arms.
Giving up, he thought back his life at home. These people here do not fear him. But at home, his wives were meek and timid creatures. They never get over the fear of him, even though he never give a hint to them that he was going to brutalized them.
But both were dead.
Inuyasha closed his tired eyes, and fell asleep when the creek of the door awaken him again. This time he was surprised to see Kaede with more food and clothing and keys.
"I found the key, mister, for my lady wants you gone and it must be now, while her brother is in town hiring men to kill you." She told him this while she removed his gag.
"I will convince him that my lady is pregnant." Kaede moved swiftly unchaining his chains and gently help him sit up while dressing him in a plain white t-shirt and large baggy pants, making him look like those hoodlums living on the streets.
"My, my, how handsome you look without that gag stuff in your face." Kaede chuckled loudly, ignoring the growl deep in his throat.
Inuyasha stood up and carefully lowered his arms, his muscles screaming after three days at that unnatural angle. He gritted his teeth against the pain. That, too, felt strange without the gag to bite on. But he did not wait for the pain in his shoulders to lessen before he grabbed her by the shoulders and demand to know were that wench is.
"She has order me to set you free for she worries for your safety but I will not tell you of her whereabouts."
"I want to speak with her."
"No."
"I want–"
"There is no time left." Kaede motion for him to followed her and she was relieve that he follow. But he took note of everything he saw as she led him out of the mansion and vowed to himself he will burn this place down and take whatever he wants from here.
Seeing so little people guarding the doors and gates, he could return after three days and take over everything here.
"It is done."
"I know," Kagome said dispassionately as she turned away from the window. "I watched until he disappeared into the fields."
"I have a bad feelings about this," Kaede said uneasily. "We should have waited."
"You know we have to free him today. Kouga and his men aren't here. If not today, I'm afraid he will die. We have taken much things from him already."
"But he did not serve his purpose." Kaede reminded her. "If you are not pregnant, Kouga will find another man for you to rape again."
Kagome shivered, though the room was not cold.
"I can't do it again. It so horrible."
"I know...I know it's hard–-"
"Hard?" Kagome cut in with a harsh-sounding laugh. "It's wrong! So wrong! And I can no longer look at myself in the mirror and find something good in myself."
"Why do you blame yourself?" Kaede demanded. "You did not even get pleasure out of it when he did."
"No, he did not took pleasure in it. How could he when he fought me each time. Fought me so hard, he hurt himself each time. He hated it. He hated me, and made sure I knew it. Those eyes—"
"But if your plan does not work?"
"It will work. If it does not work, I will risk my life and rescue Sango and leave this place and return to Tokyo. But if it does work, that he had gotten me pregnant then I will take care of the child and will not give it to Kouga no matter what." Kagome looked down at her stomach and sighed, "it's the least I can do for him."
"But, Kagome-chan, you should escape also when you have the chance now."
"I cannot abandon Sango...I cannot—" Kagome was interrupted when the door was shoved open and in came Kouga, his face purple from the fury in his face and a letter in his hands.
Kagome gave Kaede a warning look and motion her to stand behind her.
"The Lord of the Western Lands is coming here...he is going to invade us." Kouga laughed bitterly, and slam his hands against the wall.
"What did we do to enrage the Lord the Western Lands? Kagome, you must stay here and see him while I leave and round up some armies from your dead husband."
"Stay here! When he means to kill us all. Are you crazy!" She screeched.
"He won't kill you. I heard he doesn't kill woman." Kouga said quickly, looking around as if expecting the Lord to pop out of nowhere.
"Get on his good side and wait for me to rescue you."
"Or he can kill you when you come."
Kouga glared at her and continue, "You must be in good terms with him and stall time for me to get back my lands."
"Why are you so afraid of him? He just a guy with a stupid name."
"The Lord of the Western Lands is the ruthless and strongest out of us four and I am weak without an army that has dispersed when father has died."
"How can you be so sure it is him?"
"No one can mistaken the red and white flag of his. Or that damn-breathing dragon rampant that he likes on the field. Kagome, listen, you have to do what I say, ok?"
Kagome nodded and was surprise when he grabbed her and gave her a kiss that was almost brotherly and full of care for her.
She was amazed.
She was repulsed.
One day after Kouga departure, Kagome was surprise by the far-off drums pounding like a human's heart and she could see the red flag of a breathing dragon.
"He's here..." Kagome whispered to Kaede. Standing up and taking a deep breath, Kagome walked out of the large mansion and waited to greet the so-called almighty Lord.
The army came in with gun raised, but there was not a soul left other than Kagome, who stood on the lower step on the mansion. They did not seem surprised to find it so.
Half of the army went into the mansion and started to raid it when Kagome could hear screams of the servant girls and cries of death from the other servants.
Kagome force herself not to cry again but was scared when the remainder of the army approached her, with three men in the lead who dismounted first.
Two were dressed finely, Kagome thought they were King of England, though only one could be the Lord of Western Lands.
Yet it was the third man who walked slowly toward her, taller than the other two, sheathing his word as he came. He did not take his eyes off her as he did this, eyes too shadowed for her to see clearly beneath his helmets.
She had chosen the wrong place to wait, with the sun behind them but shining directly on her. It lit her braided hair to almost sparkling black, her smooth skin to glowing whiteness, and made it difficult to see the face of the men.
She opened her mouth to give a greeting, but only gasp came out as his hands gripped her upper arms, so hard she thought the bones might crush. She closed her eyes against the pain, only to be shook once, sharply, to bring them open again.
"Your name?"
"Kagome Higurashi," she got out in a mere squeak.
"Well, Kagome, you are my prisoner as of today."
Kagome nearly sagged in relief. At least he did not mean to cut her down right there on the steps. And a prisoner is not so bad, it was only temporary if Kouga was good on his words.
He still held her in that painful grip, waiting. Kagome dare not looked up at him for some reason. She could see the rest of his armies staring at her. Finally he turned with her still in his grip, only it was to literally throw her into the chest of one of the men who had come up behind him.
"Take the prisoner to my castle and install her in my dungeon. If she is not there when I arrive, there will be more than to pay."
The man behind her paled. Kagome did not see it. She was ashen herself, near to fainting from those ominous words.
"Why!" She cried , but the Lord had already turned away to enter the mansion.
Kaede found him in the room she had come to dread entering these past few days. The tall candles had burned out from Kagome's last visit to this room just before dawn, but he had found a new one and struck it on the metal spike of the candle stand. His men were plundering the mansion, taking all the value that they wanted.
She could not imagine what he was doing here when a glance should have told him there was naught in this room save that bed.
She hesitated to speak. He merely stood there, staring down at the bed. He had removed his helmet first and Kaede immediately recognized his silver hair. He was a very tall man.
"What do you want?" He asks.
She was trembling, now believing that he was someone of great importance and that he was not bluffing when he was still chained to the bed.
He didn't turn around, but instead bent down and dragged the long chains out from under the bed, as she watched, fascinated, as he slowly draped the two lengths around his neck like a layered necklace, the ends left hanging from his shoulders to his waist. She shivered, wondering why he would take the chains unless he meant to use them on someone.
"Answer!" His voice dripping with hatred.
She jumped that time, and stammered, "They say you are the Lord of the Western Lands."
"Yep, that's me."
"Please, what have you done to Kagome. She has not return—"
"Nor will she---ever."
He turned as he added that last word, and Kaede staggered back. "Please, don't do this."
One corner of his mouth lifted in a menacing curve. "Why not?"
"Do not hurt her!" She cried her horror aloud. "She had no choice----"
"Shut up!" he roared, pointing a finger at her. "Think she can be excuse for what she had done to me? I don't care about her reasons. I will get my revenge and I will burn everything in this house to satisfy my thirst."
Kaede held her tongue as Inuyasha passed her to enter the room across the hallway. But he knew she still hovered about the doorway, wringing her hands, tears gathering and spilling from her soft brown eyes. He might be indebted to her, but if she talked about that bitch, he would send her to his dungeon too.
Inuyasha stepped into the larger room, that he knew belong to the wench and open the brown closet with his hands. He turn around to find Kaede there looking at him when he pointed at the closet and asks, "Is this hers?"
"Yes."
"Good, these are good for my daughters." He said it with such indifference, Kaede's fear dissipated and her anger rose, though she was not stupid enough to let him hear it.
'This is all she has left."
"Well, now she has the skin on her back and the rags I will give her to wear."
Kaede eyes narrowed as she realizes that this was part of his revenge.
"Tell me, is anyone going to return to this," he pointed to the ceiling and smiles cruelly, " goddamn house?"
Kaede nodded and told him that Kagome's brother will return.
"Sorry to disappointed him, but I think it's ashes he will be finding here."
"Are you going to kill her?" Ignoring the things he had just said about the mansion.
"No, that would be too swift. She is going to suffer as I had." He said coldly. "She will be at my mercy until the day she dies."
"Do you have any?"
"Only to those who do not harms me."
Kaede was already feeling sick at heart over his answer.
"Babaa-chan, why don't you come work for me and give me your loyalty?" He said casually as he gather up Kagome's clothes and stuffed it in a large duffel bag he had with him.
Kaede looked up with surprise and quickly agreed. This was her chance to see Kagome and helped —
"Help that bitch, she will get whip."
Kaede froze and closed her eyes in sympathy for her Kagome.
He was the worse.
Poor Kagome.
What has she done to deserve such a life?
