Hey all. Sorry it has taken so long to update, but I have been writing some of the chapters and also I have been working on other things. Thanks for the reviews. Also, I don't own Inuyasha but I kidnapped some of the characters for awhile. Don't worry, they will be returned, but the will be just a little disoriented
Kagome walked around the halls looking for the green toad youkai, but he was proving to be very hard to find. She wondered around a little more, and then finally she saw him run down a hall. Kagome turned down that hallway and said, "Jaken, I need your assistances." Jaken stopped in his tracks and turned around to see the lieutenant of Sesshoumaru-sama's army standing there. "How can I help you, Lieutenant?" Kagome hesitated a little, but then said, "I want to know if there are any unmated ladies from the neighboring lands." Jaken was a little confused by the question, but thought about it for a moment. He put his hand to his chin and thought harder. He then looked up to Kagome and said, "The last available lady was mated to Lord Kouga a couple months ago. Why do you ask, Lieutenant?" She narrowed her eyes and walked off and said, "That is none of your concern." She walked down the hallway and was angry. 'Now what am I going to do?' She let out a large sigh and then decided to head to the gardens to do some major thinking.
Sesshoumaru entered the gardens and went over the roses. Next to the sakura blossoms, roses were his second favorite; but he knew that if he went over to the sakura blossom, he would just think more about Kagome. He wanted for just a few moments where he was not thinking of her, but she just would not leave his mind. As he thinking, he noticed the scent of lavender and sakura blossoms enter the garden. He groaned and thought, 'This is not my lucky day.' He then smelled salt in the air and he knew that she was crying; but why?
Kagome entered the garden and went over to one of the sakura trees and sat underneath it. She brought her knees up to her chest and then rested her head onto her them. What was she to do now? Without an available lady to have Sesshoumaru court, there was a possibility that she would fail her mission or fall further and further in love with him. She did not know why she had feelings towards him, but she did and they would not go away. She then felt a tear roll down her cheek. 'It's not fair! I want to love him, but it is forbidden. It just isn't fair!' The wind blew her hair behind her and ruffled her feathers. It was a bit calming, but she still felt depressed.
Kagome then noticed a familiar aura coming towards her and she quickly stood. She bowed to Sesshoumaru and said, "My lord." Sesshoumaru growl a tiny bit for he did not like how she kept calling that instead of saying his name. "Call me Sesshoumaru." Kagome looked up to him and then noticed that he stood close to her. "What spell have you cast over this Sesshoumaru? I cannot free you from my mind; but apart of me does not want you to leave. No other woman has ever made me feel the way I do now." Kagome looked into his golden eyes and said, "And what would that be?" Sesshoumaru didn't say anything, but he gently placed lips onto hers. Kagome gasped slightly, but then began to melt into his kiss. Sesshoumaru cupped her face in his hand and then began to nipple at her lower lip, asking to deepen the kiss. Without thinking, Kagome let him in and Sesshoumaru began to explore her insides.
Kagome then realized what she was doing and pulled away from him. Sesshoumaru felt Kagome's warm lips pull away from his and he opened his eyes to see Kagome's head had turned away from him. "No…no, I can't do this. It is forbidden." Tears streamed down her face, but then she heard Sesshoumaru say, "What is forbidden? Who forbids this?" Kagome shook her head and said, "No, I can't tell you. Everything is forbidden!" Kagome then put her hands over her face and ran inside to her room. Sesshoumaru watched her leave and felt a small pain in his chest.
Kagome flung herself onto her bed and cried her eyes out. Everything was so unfair. She found someone that she loved, but she knew she couldn't have it because her race was not supposed to mix with breeds other than angels. The Elders believed that if that were to happen, their perfect race would crumble because the pure-blood line would be tainted. "It is not fair!" Kagome had realized that over the two months that she had been in Sesshoumaru's castle, she had slowly fallen in love with Sesshoumaru, and tonight Sesshoumaru had proven to her that he had the same feelings towards her. Kagome sat up and wiped the tears from her eyes and then looked towards her balcony. She got up and went out onto it and then stared up at the full moon and her home. Kagome began to question whether she would give up everything she had at home and stay with Sesshoumaru or go back home and forget Sesshoumaru. She stood there for a few moments and then she made up her mind. She spread her senses out and tried to locate Sesshoumaru. She found his aura to be on the other side of the castle, but outside. Kagome spread her wings and then took off to where she had located Sesshoumaru.
Sesshoumaru was at a lost. The woman he had fallen for ran because of something being forbidden. He was confused and a little hurt. He knew the risk of revealing his feelings, but he took that risk. The thing that gave him the slightest bit of hope was that fact that Kagome had returned the kiss and he knew if she did not have feelings for him, she would have pulled back from the moment that their lips touched. He looked up at the full moon, trying to ease his confusion, but then he felt an oh so familiar aura coming towards his balcony. He looked out and saw Kagome flying up to his balcony and landing gracefully onto it. "Sesshoumaru, I need to speak with you." In her eyes, she was asking him to trust her, so he nodded his head. "But not here; somewhere more private." Sesshoumaru turned and walked inside and said, "Follow me." Kagome followed behind him and she wonder where they would go.
Sesshoumaru led Kagome to his small meeting room, which was at the center of his castle, so it did not have windows. "This is my meeting room. It has a spell on it so as that nothing can be heard outside these walls. Now, what is it that you wish to speak to me about." Kagome sighed and said, "I have not been entirely truthful with you, Sesshoumaru." Sesshoumaru raise an eyebrow and Kagome continued on, "I am not a youkai in hiding. I did not join your army to stay hidden. I joined your army in order to be closer to you so that I could carry out my mission." Sesshoumaru face harden and he bit out, "And what mission might that be, wench?" Kagome winched at the name he called her, but then she said, "I was assigned to you as your guardian angel. My job as an angel is to help beings like you find love. Then I began to fall in love with you, but you see, the angels have made a rule that forbids anyone to fall in love or mate with any being outside our kind." "You lie. Angels do not exist." Kagome shook her head and said, "No, we are real. It is just that people have forgotten about us." Kagome then turned around and show her tattoo again and said, "I know you have been wondering what this symbol means. Well, it is a sign stating that I am the child of an Elder." Kagome turned back around and said, "I will understand if you want me to leave, but I just want you to know the truth and that I do have strong feelings toward you."
Kagome then bowed to him and then turned to leave, but then felt a hand on her shoulder. Kagome looked over her shoulder at Sesshoumaru and heard him say, "I do not want you to leave. I will tell you that I am not happy that you lied to me, but I understand why you did. But, I do not want to lose the one thing that was able to bring down the wall that was around my heart." Kagome turned to him and smiled, and then Sesshoumaru brought her into a deep, passionate, kiss. Kagome snaked her arms around his neck for support as they continued the kiss. When they finally broke the kiss, Kagome stared into Sesshoumaru's golden eyes. Sesshoumaru caressed her cheek and then said, "Kagome, please grant me the honor of you become my mate." He saw her eyes light up and then she wrapped her arms around him again. Then something hit her and she looked to where his left arm should have been. She looked to him and then back to his missing limb and he understood what she wanted to do. He nodded his head and then watched her place her hands over the limb. Her hands glowed a light lavender color and a tingling sensation could be felt in Sesshoumaru shoulder. He felt his arm grow back and when she was finished, he lifted his arm and examined it. He flexed his fingers and he saw his magenta stripes twist up his whole arm. It was an exact replica of his right, bones, muscles, nerves, skin, and stripes, and he turned to Kagome and smiled. "Thank you, koi." He then wrapped both arms around her waist and kissed her again. When they parted, Sesshoumaru scooped Kagome up into his arms and ran to his private chambers and shut the door.
