Hej, my friends! Glad to see you have journeyed farther into my story (rubs hands together evilly)

Doughnut-92: I have to say, first and foremost, that I could in no way be mad at you. You review for me (bows down) and I like your name… doughnuts… delicious! Also the quote is from a Vampyre movie that ka-lyrra sent me, it's called "For Those Who Seek" it's extremely old, but one of my favorites. Let's just say, it's a black and white, but I highly suggest it! Oh, and I must ask, do you like Kouga?

Inuyasha Lover 813: I totally agree, I couldn't resisthis hotness either :) I loathe every day that the world knows no flesh and blood Inuyasha.

Inuyashalovingfan: calm down, love. It's here.

Inuyashaz-ghetto-girl: aaaaaww, puppy eyes! Love those.

And finally, for the hard part… I (pause) do not (shuffles feet) own (sniff) Inuyasha. Ouch, that hurt a lot more than it was supposed to!

Oh, and (Inuyasha: covers my mouth with hand Shut up! I wanna see what comes next and so do they!)

Chapter 4: We're Not Finished Yet

Previously: She let out a little yelp when she was suddenly lifted up and against someone, her back to their front. She was about to scream when a hand covered her mouth, and a set of hot lips began to scorch her neck.

"Kagome, why did you leave me? We're not done." She felt the light scrape of claws as a hand slowly crept up her shirt.

The hand was removed from her mouth, and moved to the side to cup her cheek. The tenderness of it startled her, and sent tiny shivers through her.

"I-Inuyahsa? Wha-"

"Shhhhh," she heard him say. "Don't talk, don't say anything just… just…" she heard a muffled groan as he placed his mouth against her throat. She heard him take a deep breath, inhaling her scent. "Jeez, Kagome, do you know what you do to me?"

Those words sent another wave of shivers throughout her body. Everything he was saying, what he was doing… did he mean it? He was acting like he wanted her. Like he wanted to… to…

"Inuyasha, what is this? Why are you doing this?" She hissed when he ran his tongue up the length of her throat.

He didn't answer. Instead, he again moved the hand under her shirt to trace the bottom of her bra. His claws tickled the underside of her breasts, causing them to feel heavy. He still had his other hand against her cheek, holding her head from any movement.

She was waiting for his next move. He seemed so content to just stand there, in the moonlight, holding her and doing, well doing this. He was cradling her against his body, and stroking her so tenderly, so lightly. It was a big change from earlier when he had taken it farther and faster.

Suddenly, he took a clawed finger and sliced the front of her bra. Moving his hand upward, he gently cupped her breast. A long groan came from his throat, and Kagome let out a breath she hadn't even realized she had been holding. As before, he began to grope and knead her chest, and it felt absolutely wonderful. Then he turned her head and kissed her deeply, probing the insides of her mouth completely. At the same time he pinched her nipple lightly, then rubbing it to sooth the slight pain.

Breaking the kiss, he finally moved his hand away from her face, but trailed it down her neck, then her arm, to capture her hand. Pulling her back some more, he was soon leaning against a ledge near the creek side, with Kagome still in front of him. He moved to remove her shirt, and what was left of her bra. Still, without turning her around to face him, he moved back to cupping on of her breasts and the other to hold her hand.

"Because," he breathed huskily. "Because Kagome, I…" he trailed off into a low growl, taking her hand and placing it against his obvious erection. His breathing become short and fast. Taking said hand, he closed his over hers, causing her to fully grasp his manhood. Again he let out a moan, arching into her fingers.

Kagome couldn't breath. It was unthinkable, what he was doing was so unlike his usual self. He was acting like a… well a dog in heat. (a/n: no pun intended) He was so blatant now, and he was actually taking pleasure from this, pleasure from her doing this. What had happened to him? Whatever it was, it was giving her a heady sort of feeling, and her stomach was doing somersaults.

Turning her headto tell him this, she stopped when she saw his face. He had his eyes closed, and his face turned skyward. His mouth was partially open, but that isn't what stopped her. No, it was the fact that he looked to be in so much pleasure, and he just looked like he was so happy. Who was she to take that happiness away? She had never seen him so content as he was now, and, even though it was strange and very embarrassing, she felt the same way too. She had always wanted his attention, and she was certainly getting it so, really, why stop now when every part of her being said to take it?

Because it's wrong. You two can't be together, you don't belong in this time, and neither him in yours.

No, it may not be right, and she knew that it probably wouldn't work between them... but she wouldn't let this moment between her and Inuyasha end, not now.

They stood in silence like that for a moment, and then Kagome let her self go.

He felt it. Inuyasha felt the exact moment that she let herself relax and except this. She would take him, she would let him take her… he felt his heart soar at the thought. She wants me.

Turning her around, he spun them both so that her back was now against the ledge, and he brought his lips to hers. Hearing her moan, he took the kiss deeper. Roughly he pinned her to the wall, melding his body to his, fitting them together inch by inch.

Kagome reached out to place her hands on his chest, running her fingers over the smoothness of it. Even without looking she could feel every ridge of his abdomen muscles, the strength and tautness of them. He seemed to be perfect all over.

Moving one hand downward, he lifted the edge of her skirt. Then, using both hands, without breaking the kiss, he began to stroke his way up her thighs. He was so close. Reaching her hips, he slowly began to slide her panties down. Silk, oh jeez, she wore silk.

It was heaven, it was perfect. Nothing could come between them now, just the two of them. They both wanted this, and it wasn't going to stop. He was going to take it all the way, and finally, finally, get what he wanted. Needed. It was now.

"Inuyasha," said a low, seductive voice.

'No', his mind screamed. 'Damn it, damn it, damn it to hell and back! Not now, why now?'

Inuyasha chose to ignore the calling voice, but Kagome began to push against his chest. Breaking the kiss, she stared up into his eyes. They were half lidded and filled with warmth and passion. They were amber again, but a deeper shade. They were beautiful.

Looking at Kagome, he saw her confusion, her lust, and her frustration with what he hoped was caused by the fact that they were again interrupted. But that was too much to ask for.

"Inuyasha, what is she doing here?" Kagome's eyes were smoldering now.

He had no answer for that. He just stood there, quietly cursing himself over and over, 'why did I promise to avenge her? Why, damn it, why?'

Kagome made a very unlady-like noise, and then turned around to stalk back to camp.

Watching her go, Inuyasha felt his anger boiling over. Every time he got her where he wanted her, every time he got so close to sating his driving hunger for the raven-haired future girl, something happened.

It was enough to drive him insane, if he wasn't there already!

Turning towards the voice, he saw her standing in the shadows. "What now?"

"Inuyasha, I came to see you. I haven't done so in a long time, and I wished to speak to you."

"Well, hurry up! I don't have all night! Unlike you, Kikyo, I'm not the living dead," he finished in an annoyed tone.

"Inuyasha," she said, moving from the shadows to stand in front of him. "Why are you this way? Why do you take that tone with me?"

Inuyasha's reply was an ugly snort. "Keh, woman, you don't even know."

"Come Inuyasha, you are different. I saw the way you were handling that girl. The little bitch doesn't know you like I do, Inuyasha. I could make you happy."

"Hey," he barked back. "Don't go insulting Ka-" he was cut off when Kikyo placed a finger to his lips. Then she moved to wrap her arms around his waste, and placed her cheek against his chest.

"Inuyasha, come be with me. Leave her, she isn't for you. You belong to me." Then suddenly, she lifted her face to his to kiss him. Stroking her tongue over his lips, trying to coax him to open his mouth.

He didn't react. 'Why don't I feel anything?' He had once been her friend, and he had even loved her. That was why he had wanted the Shikon Jewel, so that he could be with her, but now… he didn't feel anything for her. 'What's wrong?'

Then he knew why. Even when kissing Kikyo, the first human friend he had, the one he had even swore to avenge, he still had thoughts only for the girl with a snappy attitude, lush black hair, and chocolate brown eyes. The girl from another time, who had the power to subdue him, but still chose to be with him.

Kagome…

"Inuyasha," Kagome spat furiously. She had thought they had had something special. He had been pursuing her, acting like he actually cared! Like he wanted her. And what happens? His love, Misses Reincarnated-Clay Pot Kikyo, shows up. Of course she would, and of course, like every time she showed her face, Kagome would be forgotten. The fifth wheel. Well, she wouldn't be the standby this time. If he wanted Kikyo, then he could have her, she didn't care.

But even as that thought echoed through her head, she knew it was a lie. Because, like it or not, every time Kikyo showed up, every time Inuyasha left her side to seek her out, it tore through her like a hot iron. She wanted to be seen, to know that if Kikyo showed up, Inuyasha wouldn't run off, but instead stay with her, snort and say, "Keh, she'll be alright on her own."

Yeah, that's what she wanted. And for once, that was what she was going to get. This time she wasn't going to walk away, she was going to walk back and, if she had to, drag Inuyasha with her by the ear.

And maybe, a little voice inside her chided, kick Kikyo's fake ass.

Making her way back, she came to the top of the ledge where she and Inuyasha had been. The sight that greeted her firmly squelched any action she was going to take. Already he had moved on, and now was in the arms of the one person she truly hated most.

All the fight now drained out of her, she turned around, and began walking.

Inuyasha pushed Kikyo back, only to have her hang on like a leash.

"Kikyo, damn it, let go!"

"No Inuyasha, I know what you need. It's the Coming of Age, all demons go through it, and I'm willing to help you. You need a mate, take me."

She was offering. Again, he thought back to the time when he had loved her.

Take me… take me… take me…

Correction, when he thought he had loved her.

Prying himself away from Kikyo, he stood to face her. For the first time, since this had started, his "time", he felt completely calm. "No Kikyo, I don't need you, and I don't want you. What I want is for you to leave me the hell alone."

Kikyo reached for his face. "Inuyasha-"

Inuyasha stepped back. "Kikyo, I want Kagome. I won't go back on my promise, I'll continue to hunt Naraku, but I don't want to see you anymore. Not like this."

Kikyo stood gaping as Inuyasha walked away, intent on finding the only one he wanted to spend the night with. The only one, period.

Only she wasn't at the camp, but her stuff was. Searching around the camp, he caught a wiff of her scent on the breeze, and followed it. She had left. She probably thought he was off with Kikyo, and had left her. Again.

He winced at the words. He had left her too many times.

Well, this time, when he found her, he damn sure wasn't going to let go again.

BWAHAHAHAHA! I have left you hanging again! But you know what? I hurt myself too, cause I really wanted to end this chapter, but I figured it would all fit in the next one.
