"So now let us play this game, this game of Love"

Sesshoumaru left Rin alone in the flower field, his prince like crown remaining. He knew that this creation had come with some intention one that he did not want to ponder. Walking causally up the hill, he reached the top to see that Kagura had been watching them the whole time. A smug smile painted on her red lips,

"What are you doing here?" he snapped

"I am here to warn you." She said sweetly, happy that she had broke whatever had been blooming between him and the mortal.

Sesshoumaru nearly spit "What for?"

"Naraku is angry that he cannot find your half brother Inuyasha."

Sesshoumaru had never smelt something so foul, worse then the last time she had asked for his help. He would never aid someone like her, something so foul… His thoughts trailed away at the look on Kagura's face whom was dissolving quickly into high pitched giggles.

Kagura had delicately covered her mouth as her peals of laughter rung into the small valley, Rin heard the echo from the field below and looked up to see her caretaker standing upon the hill still wearing his crown of wildflowers.

"Oh Kami" she swore thinking of the wrath that she would soon incur.

Sesshoumaru removed the crown of flowers and crushed it between his powerful fingers, a flush of shame staining his ears, waiting for Kagura to catch her breath.

"Oh, Sesshoumaru you are definitely growing soft. It has been so many years since when you first took her in, I thought it would have happened sooner."

"I have no feelings for her" he stated coldly. Kagura raised a dark eyebrow to that response

"You lie, I can see it."

Sesshoumaru tightened his fist "Do not toy with me woman this is not what you came here for!" he barked.

Kagura snickered "Well I was wondering where Inuyasha has been gone to for so long. Naraku says that he cannot sense the shards that he and that wench still possess."

Sesshoumaru opened his mouth to reply and stopped, he knew where Inuyasha had gone. He was spending more and more time in Kagome's time, alone…

But since the Jewel Shards were losing power, Naraku was going in search of the ones that he had not yet captured. And those were the ones that the dark haired girl had, the reincarnation of the priestess was only able to see Inuyasha by using their power to transport her from her time to his own.

Somewhere deep inside himself he couldn't say… "I have no idea where they have gone to, Kagura." He said at length.

Kagura was silent, studying him carefully and then snorted "Well if you're lying Sesshoumaru you might find that my Master is not so forgiving on those people that you love the most."

A moment later there was a swirl of wind as Kagura floated away in her giant feather leaving him thinking…

He didn't really love Rin did he?

Sesshoumaru looked down the hill and his eyes clashed with Rin's who had shaded her eyes against the glaring sun, a worried look painted on her features.

His response was one of his cool smiles, quickly the look of worry turned to terror and Rin got up and ran across the field.

He chuckled and followed her…

Rin knew it was a stupid idea to run because Sesshoumaru-sama was a full demon and he could run miles faster then any normal mortal. But still her heart was pounding frantically in her chest not because of fear or from running, but from anticipation…

What would he do once he caught her?

"Rin"

Rin froze her kimono loose, hair askew, breath fast as Sesshoumaru took her hand and kissed it softly.

She was shivering now and she bit her lip so that he wouldn't see it…

"Y-yes Sesshoumaru-sama?" she gasped as he drew closer and closer to her.

"What do you want me to do with you now?" his voice had dropped low.

Rin's cheeks began to flush, closing her eyes to block out his handsome face.

"I-I don't know" she whispered before lips brushed her ear and then kissed her neck. A warm arm wrapped around her waist from behind, pulling her close.

"You just put this kimono on I won't want to take it off so soon." He purred into her ear.

Rin's eyes opened in mild shock, her pulse frantic beneath delicate veins, feeling him loosening the sash.

She came to her senses and pulled away, neck red from where he had kissed it. The scent of him was everywhere, everywhere…

There in that field Rin fainted away…. And Sesshoumaru only smiled as he laid her in the fragrant flowers…

Soon then he might discover what this love could really be…
