"Delightful Sins"Chapter II:
The grass was softly moving against the wind, the sun was about to set giving it's last rays to the earth below and softly glistening on the lake surface creating soft sparkling spots over the water, the tall and strong trees dressed with green-emerald leaves let the dying sun rays dimly crept inside the forest as this were softly rustled by the wind. A shadowed figure was sitting under the protective shadow of one of those trees in front of the calm lake, it was a real handsome man, he looked young but he wasn't, long, smooth and brilliant starry painted hair enhanced a pair of golden orbs that seemed deep and cold, his face features were aristocratic and mature, two violet marks were against each of his pale cheeks and a dark purple crescent moon over his forehead...he was in fact a real handsome(A/N: And really hot) youkai prince...handsome and a prince which more can a girl ask?
But what was he doing there alone?
Well he was there to escape...escape from the ruckus that was taking place in the palace, his father Lord Inutaisho decided to celebrate that his only son and heir finally reached the appropriate age to finally take some responsibility alongside his father to rule the land and to finally state who will be his chosen life mate. Of course that he was ready to take part of lordship responsibility, to later fully rule it, but still he hadn't chosen his future mate and he was still looking for her, but all the demonesses he had seen,including the daughters of the other lords,to his eyes and tastes weren't good-enough for him and if he had to chose a life mate he will chose someone good and worth to spend his life with.
When the sun started to set in the horizon he stood up and started to make his way back to the palace, he didn't had to many wishes to return but if he didn't his father will surely send someone to seek out for him and he really didn't wanted no one to find out that was the place he used to be alone and think. When he was really away from there he found a servant that was looking for him in the forest coldly he passed besides him not even really caring what the servant was telling him. He controlled his anger and wished to kill the servants that dragged him to his room when he stepped inside the palace, apparently his father had ordered him to change into more appropriate clothes for the 'occasion'. After being unnerved till no end about which clothes he should wear he was guided through the palace to where his parents were.
When he entered he saw his father Lord Inutaisho sited in the center of the room sitting at his left side was his mother Lady Yuzuriha, silently and coldly he made his way to sit at his father right side all the eyes were over him examining every single move he made till he finally sited down and the dinner was finally served. Every guest chattered mostly of him and his new responsibility but he wasn't talking to no one heck he wasn't even enjoying the dinner at contrary he was bored and angry especially with Lady Naru,the daughter of the eastern lands lord, intently looks at him with her adoringly black eyes and with a seductive smile that could make any man surrender to her feet and he wanted to erase that stupid smile...how he wanted to kill her? When the dinner finally ended alongside his punishment he excused himself and left to his chambers.
"Sesshoumaru!!!" His father voice stopped him dead in his tracks.
"You need something father?" He slowly and coldly asked
"Don't use that tone with me I didn't came her to scold you for your attitude during dinner" His father assured and Sesshoumaru expression did change "Do you have any female on mind?"
"Do you mean a 'mate' material?" Sesshoumaru asked and his father nodded "No"
"I should have known" Inutaisho said and walked to his son "I know is really difficult to chose a mate, I know you must chose carefully the female, after all is a life mate"
Sesshoumaru only looked at his father "Is it true that you asked Jaken to get a concubine for me?"
"Yes I did" Inutaisho answered to his son "It is time for you to have one,besides a concubine is better than a demoness geisha,you will have the woman here"
"I suppose you're right" Sesshoumaru said but his but his look didn't changed towards his father "What kind of demoness is?"
"Well...umm...ehh..." Inutaisho only looked at his son that was looking back at him confused for his reaction "Is not a demoness...is a human"
"WHAT!? A HUMAN!?" Sesshoumaru expression turned into of pure disgust "Why did you brought such a filthy and low being for me?"
"There...there Sesshoumaru,a human concubine is better than a demoness concubine" Inutaisho said but the expression in his son face didn't change "Son,humans fear us...a human concubine is more docile and more obedient plus a human concubine will always yield at your power and do whatever you want and will never spat back at you...at contrary that a demoness"
Sesshoumaru pondered on that for awhile "I guess you're right on that aspect" He turned around "When will this 'concubine' due to arrive?"
"She's in your chambers in this moment" Inutaisho answered and his son started to leave "Now son stop!" Inutaisho ordered and he did "Remember she's a human,she's fragile and weak so you must treat her kindly and with respect"
"WHAT!? I'm supposed to respect her" Sesshoumaru spatted
"No" Inutaisho said to his son "You must treat her kindly,I'm not telling you to respect her only treat her with kindness"
"Why are you telling me this?" Sesshoumaru curiously asked to his father "You don't care about humans either"
"Your mother saw her and apparently she felt pity for her,so she asked me to order you to be kind with her" Inutaisho explained to him
"How does she looks?" He coldly asked
"Well the one I asked Jaken to bring didn't came,her sister took her place but the one Jaken brought is a lot more beautiful than the one I originally asked for" Inutaisho answered to his son "Plus this one is still a maiden"
"A maiden" His voice sounded with a bit of amazement "How weird to find a human that's still pure...from body at least"
"Well this one is pure not only from body,she's also pure from soul,mind and heart" Inutaisho said his son only looked at him "She is...no she was a miko because after tonight she won't be able to have that title anymore"
"She was a miko?" He asked and his father nodded "This shall be interesting very interesting..."
Sesshoumaru turned around and went to his chambers,of course youkais knew that for humans mikos were their earthly representation of the pureness and innocence of body,mind,soul and heart they had lost,so practically the mikos were the only fully complete pure humans...but other thoughts came to his mind like why did his father got a human concubine in the first place? It was really weird why should he bother finding a human if he could find a good demoness.He stopped in front of the shoji door that lead to his room when he caught the soft scent of bellflowers coming from coming from his room,it was a real soothing scent the scent of the bellflowers mixed with another serene and innocent scent creating such a pleasant one...he opened the door slowly after he entered in his chambers he closed the shoji door and he turned around....
(A/N: Touché, you will know in the next chap his impression of Kikyou...now I'm moving to what happened to her before their meeting)
Kikyou finally arrived at the Western lands palace,of course after being really mistreated by the toad youkai through all the way there as he constantly kept pulling of the rope around her neck,she yelped sometimes when she felt the rope digging mercilessly against the tender skin of her neck causing the toad demon to laph and to insult her.The other two youkais that had been with them stopped in the doors as the toad demon pulled her inside the palace,her feet were softly moving on the hard polished(A/n: if polished floor didn't exist now they did.)wooden floor as he took to where he wanted her to go,not wanting to imply further damage to her already sore neck skin she followed him suit at his same pace,for what she could see the palace was really big maybe it was as big at their plus the palace had a real beautiful and huge garden probably for the mistress of the land tastes.
The toad stopped in front of two shoji doors and ordered her to open them,seeing no other choice but to apply Kikyou walked to the doors graciously and opened the doors with some difficulty due to her bounded hands when they entered the room she was ordered to close them and she did.Inside the room were two persons...well two youkais a man and a woman,she was now facing the lord and the lady of the Western lands and her eyes couldn't believe the sight,they looked with such a majesty and power she couldn't quite describe.
The lady of the Western lands was really beautiful she had long silky orange-red hair that flowed in beautiful curls past her waist,silver colored orbs with a finely porcelain face,white and smooth skin with a very well shaped and feminine body,she was dressed as the lady of the land should and it was obvious she favored the pastel and pale colors.The lord was handsome with long silver hair,a pair of yellow and deep orbs with a handsome royal face with two red-purple marks on each cheek, he was wearing a boa that ended in what seemed two tails,he was tall and with a well toned body at contrary of his wife he seemed to favor darker colors.She squirmed uncomfortably when the two gazed at her intently in the spot she was sitting on the floor.
"My lord and my lady" Jaken bowed respectable at them "Here's the human"
Inutaisho looked at her intently "That's not the human woman...Kagome" His gaze never leaving her "Who are you?"
"My lord and my lady my name is Kikyou" She answered as she lightly bowed "I'm Kagome's older sister as my duty as sister I took her place to come here as a concubine"
"Well that was very noble of you Kikyou" Lady Yuzuriha said and smiled warmly and pitifully at her "Specially with you being a priestess"
"Umm..." Inutaisho stood up and walked to the raven miko "How old are you?"
"I'm seventeen my lord" Her voice sounded steady and firm not affected when he placed his hand under her chin and tilted her head from side to side.
"She's a lot much prettier than the other girl I chose" He finally stated more to himself than to her,he tilted Kikyou's head to her right side exposing part of her neck she half flinched when he sniffed her softly "And you're still a maiden"
Kikyou blushed at his commentary "Well my lord to be a miko I need to have my soul, body, mind and heart pure"
"Humph" He released her chin and returned to his lady side 'This should be interesting'
"Jaken" Yuzuriha softly said to the toad demon "Take Kikyou to Youcon,she already knows what to do"
"Yes my lady" Jaken said as he bowed.
"After she's ready tell Youcon to take her to my son chambers" Inutaisho said as Jaken bowed again while he took the rope again 'Yes this will be interesting'
Jaken shoved Kikyou out of the room and lead her through the wooden floor an aisles,Kikyou was now confused she was wondering how the western land lord knew she was still a virgin? A tug on the rope brought her back to reality(A/N: xx ouch)as Jaken led her through the gardens,they finally stopped in front of what seemed like a house,Jaken opened the door and led her inside the house.Inside were four demonesses but one caught her attention more than the others it was a woman with long,fine and thin green hair with tanned skin with gray-red orbs an a pretty girly face and a nice body,of course that the inside of the house also called the attention it was practically a bathroom and dressing room she looked around the place amazed till no end.
"Oi Jaken" The green haired demoness said when she noticed them "What are you doing here?"
"Well Youcon,lady Yuzuriha ordered me to leave this wench here and that you will knew what to do" Jaken answered
"Oh...so she's the young lord concubine?" Youcon asked and Jaken nodded "Well okay thanks you can leave"
"After you finish with her take the wench to the prince chambers" Jaken said and left.
"Freaking little toad" Youcon cursed under her breath and looked at Kikyou "Why don't we take that rope from your neck and release your wrists?"
"Yes that will be nice" Kikyou answered and Youcon released her wrists and untied the rope,her hands immediately went to her sore neck "Arigato Lady Youcon"
"Don't need to call me lady" Youcon said to Kikyou "So you're Kagome,right?"
"No,I'm her older sister my name is Kikyou" She softly said to Youcon "I couldn't let my sister come here"
"That was so noble,you must really love your sister" Youcon warmly said to Kikyou "Well,shall we start?"
"Hoe" Kikyou closed her eyes and breathed deeply "Hai Youcon-sama"
"Okay...Kikyou-chan" Youcon handed her a white hakama "Please change from those clothes"
Kikyou took the hakama "Okay Youcon-sama,where?"
"There...now hurry up" Youcon said and Kikyou left to change "Monoke" A red haired woman appeared "Go pick a dozen of bellflowers from the garden and tell Kanoki to prepare a hot bath" The girl nodded and left "Kikyou will end so pretty that maybe Lord Sesshoumaru will fall for her...yeah like if that could happen if he rejects the other lords daughters"
Kikyou was nervously looking around the tiny room Youcon told her to go the white hakama laid untouched in a table since the moment she entered in the room but maybe she could escape now...in her heart she wanted to escape to leave that place but her mind knew what will happen if she did,she really didn't wanted Kagome to be there. Sighing Kikyou undid her ponytail releasing her darken strands of hair to flow gently over her shoulders and her back past her waist line,she couldn't retreat now that she had come to far and her sister freedom and happiness meant more to her than her own, slowly she started to strip out of her miko garments exposing her warm body to a fresh air that came from who knows where?
She walked to the hakama and slowly she slipped inside the hakama, after she completed her task a small blush came to her cheeks when she realized the hakama was a little bit transparent but thanks gods she had long hair, slowly she walked out. Once outside she noticed that one of the tubs(A/N: or whatever the name was)filled with hot water, she curiously walked to it realizing it was really big maybe three persons could bath there at the same time.
"Oh...Kikyou-chan" Youcon kind voice said "You finally came out?"
"Gomen if I took that long Youcon-sama" Kikyou said
"No don't worry about it" Youcon smiled to Kikyou and the girl shyly smiled back "Don't be afraid I won't hurt you"
Kikyou flinched for a moment "I'm sorry...I will relax"
"Of course you will" Youcon placed a hand on Kikyou's shoulder "Now take off the hakama and enter the tub"
"Umm...Okay" Kikyou blushed a bit as if sensing her shyness Youcon turned around Kikyou hastly slipped of the hakama and entered in the tub as the warm water relaxed her muscles "Umm..."
"You shouldn't be so timid" Youcon turned around and walked to the tub "How will you act in front of the young lord?"
"Lady Youcon" Monoke the red haired woman appeared and walked to Youcon "Here are the flowers"
"Thank you Monoke" Youcon said as she took the delicate purple flowers "You may leave"
"Hai Lady Youcon" Monoke bowed and left
"Umm...flowers?" Kikyou mindlessly asked and she saw Youcon dropping some purple flowers to the water one of the flowers gently floated to her as a soft delicate scent appeared "Bellflowers?"
"Yeah, those flowers will complement your already passive and serene scent" Youcon explained to Kikyou as she watched the flowers "Besides your name means bellflower right?"
"Yes" Kikyou simple answered as she then looked at Youcon "Can you tell me the name of the lord I will be serving?"
"He's name is Sesshoumaru" Youcon answered and looked at Kikyou "He's the only son of the lords, he's really important to them specially to lady Yuzuriha" Youcon smiled to her "And today is an important day for him"
Kikyou looked at her curiously "Why is that?"
"Well that's because he's turning seventy three today" Youcon happily said
"He's seventy three!!! Oh gods!!!" Kikyou exclaimed
"Yes, we have long life spans for example I'm one hundred fifteen" Youcon explained to the amazed girl "The lord is around three hundred and the lady has two hundred ninety"
"Oh...that explains everything" Kikyou softly mussed "But why is important his 73 birthday?"
"Well because now he will take part of the responsibility to rule the land alongside his father" Youcon answered
"Oh...that's a big responsibility" Kikyou looked at her sad reflection on the water "So practically I'm a present?"
"Umm..."Youcon now didn't know what to say, so she decided to change of subject "Do you know how to act?" "No...but maybe can you explain me" Kikyou replied to Youcon
"First of all you must be at his side always not talking only keeping him company the only time you can't be with him is when he goes out to the forest" Youcon explained to the young human woman "But when he's not in the forest you must be with him all the time of course till he dismiss you"
"So I must stick with him...okay I understand" Kikyou kept her stare on the water "Which else?"
"When he dismiss you do this" Youcon showed her the correctly bow she should made in front of him "When he calls you back you must be there immediately and of course fulfill each sole of his wishes" Kikyou blushed at that last remark "Well you better came out now before you end like a raisin"
"Where will I sleep?" Kikyou asked
"Oh...yeah inside his chambers is a little room that's destined to the personal concubine" Youcon explained "Now come out"
A little less shy Kikyou stepped out of the tub, Youcon gave her something so she could dry herself when she finished she slipped into the hakama again, Youcon only smiled to her as she guided her. Unconsciously Kikyou made her first friend and the only friend that will have the complete knowledge of everything that will happen between her and the young lord. Youcon was a real outgoing person and it surprised Kikyou that she didn't despised humans and even the hanyous like any other 'normal' youkai, in all the time she spent preparing Kikyou she didn't say a bad thing about them plus Youcon was really funny she even made Kikyou laph a few times, when Youcon finally finished Kikyou couldn't believe her eyes, she looked different but not a bad different...Youcon really did a great job.
When Youcon was guiding her through the lonely halls she explained to Kikyou that she was the head servant of Lady Yuzuriha and that she was in charge of Lady Yuzuriha private bathroom(A/N: the place where they had just been). She also told her that Yuzuriha originally was the only daughter of the Lord of the Northern lands and the moment Inutaisho took Yuzuriha as his mate he took control of the Northern lands. Youcon was also from the Northern lands and she came with Yuzuriha to the Western lands to keep with her work as head servant, both womans walked through some aisles Youcon still telling her things, she told her when Sesshoumaru born and how eager his parents were to be with their son to the point that they cancelled important meetings to be with him. His mother taught him to read,write and courteous and his father taught him to act as a youkai lord should act.
Finally they reached the young lord chambers and it surprised Kikyou, the room was really big both womans entered Youcon did some last retouches and left assuring her it will be okay...
Kikyou shifted nervously in the room,how she was supposed to act? Would he at least be kind with her when he took her innocence away? She really hoped he would because she remembered Kagome telling her that it really hurt but what if he enjoyed the idea of hurting her? She shook those thoughts away she needed to keep herself relaxed, she closed her eyes and repeated and repeated to herself over and over again the same litany 'Relax'. However she flinched when the shoji door opened someone entered and closed the door closed.
She slowly opened her eyes only to look at the handsome man that was now inside the room, he had long silvery hair like his father but his looked silkier just like his mother's , his face was royal and handsome that showed a perfect mix between youth and maturity just like his father he had two purple stripes on each of his smooth and pale cheeks and a crescent moon on his forehead, he was really tall and with a very well defined body just like his father he was wearing a boa but without the two tail thing and that he wear it around his right shoulder...Kikyou deeply blushed when he started to walk to her.
