Chapter 11- Gettin' Tipsy
~
Jaken had ran quickly down the halls. As quickly as his little legs would permit. The letter in his hand, had been sent from the Eastern Lands. He knew that the lord of the east was a very important figure. Just as important as Lord Sesshomaru himself. He ran as fast as he could. He even tripped and fell onto his face on the hard stone floor, but he put aside his pain and persisted in delivering this important letter. Finally, he made it to his lord's chambers and knocked on the door like a mad person.
"Lord Sesshomaru! I have very urgent and important news for you. A letter has been sent from the lord of the east!" He stopped when he heard rustling and then a loud thud on the floor, as if someone had fell onto the floor. The thud was followed by an audibly low, but dangerous growl. Jaken gulped as he heard footsteps coming closer to him. They were heavy steps that he could even feel through the floor with his own tiny, toad feet. They were the type of footsteps made when one was very, very angry. "Uh...f-forgive me my lord...f-for disturbing you. I-I shall return later, after y-y-you..." He was silent when the door flung open and the tall and very angry demon lord was towering above him, glaring a him as if he wanted to kill him right there on the spot. "My l-lord..." Behind Sesshomaru, Jaken could see the girl that his lord had brought back to be his mate. Suddenly it dawned on him why his lord was so angry. He hadn't mated with her yet and was trying to seduce her. By sight of her flushed face and heavy breathing, he could tell that his lord had been in the middle of something...until he came and interupted him.
Jaken stooped gazing at his lord's woman when another growl came from the demon lord in front of him. "My-my lord! Please forgive me but...this letter!...Ahhh!"
Sesshomaru had slammed the door behind him violently. He grabbed Jaken by his neck and had him pinned against the wall behind him. Jaken's small feet dangled from the floor as he was now, for the first time, face to face with his master, and he was scared shitless. "Jaken, what letter could be so important that you would interrupt me when I was so close to claiming Lana!" he said in a monotone voice.
"M-ma-master...ughhgh!" Jaken was cut off when Sesshomaru's grip became tighter. Sesshomaru wanted to pop his little head off so badly at this point. "I should kill you Jaken." his voice couldn't be more promising to Jaken's ears. To him, his fate was surely sealed. Sesshomaru released Jaken's throat, causing the toad demon to fall hard on the floor. "If this letter isn't as important as you say it is, I will kill you." he said as he opened the letter to read it.
"It should be my *cough* lord, it bears the seal of the north." said Jaken as he rubbed his throat, thankful that it was still there.
After Sesshomaru finished reading he looked at Jaken with an arched eyebrow. "You are quite fortunate Jaken. It appears that this letter is quite important." He gave the letter back to Jaken. "Make the preparations necessary for travel on AhUn. I will be taking Lana along with me also."
"Y-yes my lord, right away." Jaken ran even faster than he had ran when he was delivering the letter. He was grateful to be running, still living.
Sesshomaru sighed heavily as he reluctantly proceeded to re-enter his room. He was still fuming in side. When he entered his room, he noticed that Lana had gotten fully dressed. Her bath toiletries were in her hands. She was going to bathe no doubt. 'I should have obliterated that worthless toad.' he cursed to himself. If only Jaken was even a whole minute late, he would have been inside of Lana, making love to her, making her his finally. But when they were interrupted, she had regained her senses and pushed him off of her and onto the floor. He still had the taste of her sex on his lips. So sweet, like a special honey that only her body can create. It reminded him just how close he was. He wanted more, now more desperate than before.
Lana was so confused. What came over her? She had begged him to take her. She couldn't even yell at him and blame him for it because deep down she did want him. But she wouldn't admit it to him verbally, she didn't have to, he could smell her desire for him all on his own and she knew it.
Sesshomaru moved closer towards her. "Lana..." he breathed out.
She heard him say her name. It was almost the same way he said it just a few minutes ago when he had asked her what she wanted. 'I wanted him.' Lana quickly stood up and walked towards the door, but he still stood in front of it, blocking her way. She growled at him in annoyance. "Excuse me...I" she was cut off when he once again claimed her lips.
He had to see if he still had a chance of luring her to him. He had to see if just by kissing her she would give in to his touch. When she didn't pull away and began to melt into his arms, he knew he had a chance. Sesshomaru broke the kiss, satisfied that he was still in control. A smile formed on his face as he looked at his future mate. Her eyes were half open, and her lips quivered as if she wanted more. He should have took her right there, but there would be time for that later. They had to get ready to leave. "Yes, you may take your bath. I just wanted to inform you that I have been called to meet with the lord of the east for this evening and I will be taking you with me."
Lana tried to regain her composure by taking a deep breath and reminding herself of what Sesshomaru did to get her here. She decided that it would be more effective if she went back to being her normal self. Stubborn, obstreperous, and headstrong. Just like his brother. "Don't touch me you pig! And maybe I don't want to go with you, ever thought of that?" she hissed at him while pulling herself out of his grasp. "How dare you take advantage of me like that!? You tried to seduce me didn't you?" her glare was full of anger yet they showed that she was unsure of what she was saying.
Sesshomaru knew what she was doing. He wouldn't give in now. Not when he was so close. "I took advantage of you, you say?" he said huskily as he advanced towards her. She gulped and took a step back. He smirked as he saw that she wasn't so headstrong anymore. "You could have made me stop." He stopped approaching her when they was only less than a foot away from each other.
"Don't even lie you asshole! I told you to stop. But you kept going didn't you." she yelled at him, raising a finger to his face. He took her hand that was in his face and brought her towards him. She gasped when he smiled at her mischievously, exposing his fangs.
The smile was soon replaced when a slight frown emerged on his face at her remark. "I assure you that this Sesshomaru does not lie." He could smell her fear. She was trying so hard to fight him but her body knew what it wanted. It was her stubborn mind that wouldn't accept the fact that they'd have to mate sooner or later. He decided that he would help her accept it, with the help of her own body. "Yes I admit that I continued to ravish your body when you asked me to stop." He paused for a moment to lean down to her ear. "But I recall that it was not I who begged to be taken." he whispered in a sultry voice that sent chills through Lana's whole body, before he gently licked her earlobe. A slight moan escaped her mouth when he did this.
"Damn you. I can't stand you. Why do you do this to me? Don't you care about spending the rest of your life with someone you love?" she said through clenched teeth as she buried her face in his bare shoulder.
"I have already expressed my feelings for you Lana." he said, lacking any emotions.
Lana pulled away from him, glaring at him angrily with her ice grey orbs. "I believe the only feelings for me that you have expressed were those of lust and desire." Quickly jerking out of his grasp completely, she made her way out of the room and stormed down the halls, leaving the demon lord alone to contemplate what she had said.
Sesshomaru simply gazed at the spot where Lana had just stood. Had she been right? Did he actually love her and not just desire her body? She had demonstrated her strength upon him, embarrassed him in front of his worthless half-brother an companions, knocked him, Sesshomaru, lord of the West, unconscious, and even rejected him as being her mate. Ever since he left her after their first, but brief, encounter, he could not stop thinking about her.
She was the only female demon who had ever laid a hand on him. Not to mention one of only few people who could actually hit him hard enough to cause him pain. That was what he wanted. A strong mate that was worthy of being his. His failure to find one was why he had yet to have a family of his own. Lana was the only one who had ever met his standards. He knew that she was not all demon but she was enough to satisfy him. Their children would be practically all demon. He doubted that they would even have human blood at all. Surely their demon blood would dissolve it.
He closed his eyes, a wave of relief calming him now having put all doubts aside. Sesshomaru knew that he had grown to care for his Lana. His demon princess. Hopefully she would forget about being in her human state and remain in her demon form forever.
~
The whole day had almost went by when Lana had finally made her way back to her chamber. She had managed to keep her self busy all day with Rin. She was grateful that Sesshomaru had kept Rin. If it weren't for the cheerful little girl, she'd probably go run off to the village to go visit her friends. She missed them. Even a grope from Miroku sounded good. She sighed heavily at her idea. Leaving the castle against that pomposity of a lord's permission would only complicate her situation more.
When Lana had returned to her room, she spotted Sesshomaru standing outside on the balcony. He seemed to be simply enjoying the sunset. The scarlet and orange rays reflecting off of his brilliant, silver hair. He appeared to not have noticed her entrance, continuing to gaze at the horizon. She continued to watch him. When Rin had told her that he had brought her back to life after being slaughtered by a pack off wolves, she refused to believe it. But when that annoying, yet quite amusing toad Jaken bursted out stating how it was no lie how his 'lord' generously resurrected Rin, she was shocked. He did have a heart. She felt kind of guilty afterwards. She had treated him like crap based on what she had learned from his brother and what he had done to her. He looked like an angel out in the majestic rays of the sun.
She realized that her feelings about him had changed since she came back here. Lana had a new outlook on him. He was a spoiled, arrogant lord who always had someone to wait upon him. He was wise yet lacked an understanding of how to get what he wanted. Like a child. Maybe he had fallen in love with her. Wanted her so bad that he just couldn't wait the old fashioned way of taking it slow. 'Well it's understandable. How can any man resist my charm?' She giggled, finding her little joke quite funny. Her laughter stopped when he turned around to face her.
"Well, it's about time you noticed I was here." she said jokingly.
Sesshomaru arched an eyebrow at her. "Silly woman. I was well aware of your presence the entire time. I could sense you approaching down the halls."
With an arch of her own brow Lana smirked at him amusingly. "Mnhmn. Right. I forgot your keen sense of smell." she laughed. "Huh?" She spotted a kimono laying out on the bed. It was the opposite of his. It was completely red except for the white that was like the red pattern on his. "Is this for tonight?" she asked while holding it up to examine it.
"Yes it is." he replied.
She turned to him and smiled before turning her attention back to the garment in her hands. "Cool, it's red. My favorite color. Besides blue."
Sesshomaru was glad that he had somehow pleased her. "I'm glad you find it appealing." he said as he inhaled her scent. "You should change quickly. I'd like to make a grand entrance, however, we wouldn't want to be too late."
Lana nodded her understanding. "I got you. I like to be fashionably late too." At first she was hesitant about getting dressed in front of him, but she didn't want another lecture about how her body now belonged to him so she just imagined that he wasn't there as best she could.
He watched her slide out of out her kimono. He tried his best to control his desire to grab her now and take her. He took a deep breath and closed his eyes. Just as fast as Sesshomaru had closed his eyes, when he reopened them she had the red kimono over her shoulders and proceeded to close it.
"Okay I'm ready now." she said flipping her hair back and making sure everything that should be covered was. She turned to face him and noticed his increased breaths. A smug look crept on her face. "What about you?" she asked teasingly.
"I'm fine." he murmured. He didn't like that she was teasing him. "Come." he extended his hand out to her. "AhUn should be ready for our departure."
"Yes, I can't wait to see how the other lords act." she said before taking his hand.
When they made it outside Lana could see a two-headed dragon beast. "Ah!" she gasped. "Please tell me that we are not riding that thing!"
Sesshomaru stopped to look at her, bewildered by her question. "You are afraid...of AhUn?" he asked incredulously.
"It's just that...well no but...I'm just not too secure about riding that thing." she answered.
He walked over to AhUn and climbed on its back. "When I pulled you out of the river, you were secure on its back." He signaled for her to come over to him.
Lana hesitated to approach at first. "Well I was unconscious wasn't I?" she pointed out before walking over to the beast. She reached out her hand so that Sesshomaru could help her up. Her hand was shaking. She had never consciously experienced riding on such an animal. When she was on its back, she made sure that her arms were tightly clasped around the demon lord's waist. She made a small squeal when the beast stood up. Then suddenly, they began to rise off of the ground. Lana's eyes widened at the realization that they weren't just going to ride to their destination, they were going to fly there. "Oh shit...you didn't say this thing was going to fly us over there!" Sesshomaru chuckled softly as she began to panic senselessly. "I hope that you remember not to use such language in the presence of the other lords Lana. If you succeed in embarrassing me in any way I will not continue to be as kind as I have been with you. Do we have an understanding?"
She pouted at him in annoyance. "I know how to act with the upper class Sesshomaru. It won't be the first time that I am around important people you know."
"Then we do have an understanding." he said finally, before motioning for the two-headed dragon to take off.
~
*a few hours later*
"Ughh. Are we there yet." Lana asked moaned, she was becoming sick. "I think I'm going to hurl if I'm not on solid ground soon." Her grip on him became tighter than before.
Sesshomaru looked down to see just how far they were. He could see the castle a few miles ahead. It wouldn't be long now. "AhUn, we must make haste." he ordered. He didn't want to have vomit all over him. "Try to...control yourself a while longer Lana. We shall be there in a few moments."
She nodded weakly. "Okay. But I make no promises."
About five minutes later they were landed. Sesshomaru got off first to help Lana down. She was a mess. Her hair was in every direction it seemed and her complexion had gone to a sick green. As soon as he placed her on the ground she ran over to a near by bush and puked her lungs out. He walked over to her location to make sure that she had regain her health.
"Damn. Now I look like shit." She saw a small stream near by and walked over to wash out her mouth. She felt his presence behind her as she crouched down to scoop up a handful of water. "I'm fine now, if you were wondering." she looked over her shoulder to seem him staring at her. "Yes I know that I look like crap but you don't have to make me feel like it.
Sesshomaru carefully examined Lana's appearance. She actually looked kind of cute with her hair all messed up. Almost as if she had just made wild love. He shook that thought out of his mind quickly. As cute as she looked, it wouldn't be appealing for her to enter the lord of the east's home like that. He walked over to her and stooped down placing his hand on her hair, gently stroking it to smooth it out as best he could. When her hair was decent enough he stopped and rose up. "I think you look presentable." he said with a slight smile. "Come now. I believe we are late enough." Lana followed him towards the castle gates.
As they made their way through the gates, they could spot several other guests also entering the castle. "What is all this?" Sesshomaru asked confused. It seemed to be a social gathering instead of a meeting. He walked quickly up the stairs and towards the entrance, Lana close behind him. When he reached the top, a servant stopped him.
"Name please." asked the servant.
Sesshomaru looked at him. "Excuse me?"
"He asked for your name. You know, so that he can announce our arrival. You should calm down Sesshomaru." said Lana as she tried to figure out why he suddenly became so tense.
"Ah! Sesshomaru is it? Lord if the West if I recall correctly?" the servant replied upon hearing his name. He turned to Lana. "And you are my lady?"
"Hi, nice to meet you. I'm Lana." she said. She could hear music from within. Soft music, but still music none the less. 'If this is a meeting then why are they playing music?' she paused her thoughts and took a quick glance at who she was with. 'Probably to loosen up stiffs like him.'
"What a lovely name my lady. Please Lord Sesshomaru, proceed." the servant bowed as he told them to enter.
Lana took Sesshomaru's arm and hooked hers around it. "Shall we?" she smiled at him. He nodded and led her inside.
"Introducing Lord Sesshomaru of the Western Lands and his escort, Lady Lana." announced the servant.
Everyone in the room stopped what they were doing. The music continued to play and a small bit of chatter in the back as well. Sesshomaru led Lana through the crowd. Several bowed at his presence while others simply greeted him with a smile. A few snorts could be heard as well, but those who made them were no where near Sesshomaru.
Suddenly, a tall, slightly young looking man with hair the color of indigo and black, with a blue kimono and a black dragon design along the front began to approach them. "Ah, Lord Sesshomaru. I see you have received my invitation to my little gathering." the man greeted with bow.
Sesshomaru returned the bow before speaking. "Yes I did Lord Leviathan. But I recall that the letter stated that this was to be a meeting." he paused to look around the room. "This does not appear to be a meeting."
"Oh? Did it really say that this was a meeting? There must have been a misunderstanding." the indigo haired demon lord said innocently. "Well since you're here you might as well enjoy yourself." he stopped and noticed that Sesshomaru was not alone. "Or rather, yourselves. And who is this lovely young lady who is accompanying you tonight?"
As Sesshoamru began to speak, Lana quickly beat him to it. "Nice to meet you. My name is Lana." Leviathan took Lana's hand and gave it a small kiss on the back of it. "It is a pleasure to meet you as well Lady Lana. Welcome to my castle. I am Leviathan, lord of the east." he smiled at her warmly before turning his attention to Sesshomaru. "Tell me Sesshomaru, have you actually found a woman worthy of accompanying you to a social gathering." he grinned. A servant holding a plate with glasses of whine passed by and he took one taking a sip before hearing what the response to his question would be.
Sesshomaru made a half smirk and chuckled at his comment. "Actually, I am currently courting Lana. She is to be my mate."
Leviathan began to choke on his whine. Lana walked over to him and gently rubbed his back. When the lord of the east regained his breath he simply laughed. "Well I be. I thought I'd never see the day. You have my blessings." he looked down at Lana. "I wish the both of you many children."
Lana blushed at his statement. "Well um...thank you...I guess." she murmured her last words.
"Well now I must make a toast to this." Leviathan said as he went into the center of the room. "I wish to have everyone's attention. I wish to make a toast to a very important friend of mine." He turned to face Lana and Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru had his normal expressionless face on while Lana's face was a deeper shade of red than her kimono. "Here's to Lord Sesshomaru and his future mate, Lady Lana. May they have our blessings for a successful future together."
"Here, here!" the entire room agreed.
As everyone returned to what they were doing, Lana decided that she needed some air. "Uh Sesshomaru?" she paused to see if she got his attention. "Do you think I could go and get some air?"
He looked around and saw a huge balcony that led outside. "You may seek fresh air over there." he said pointing to the balcony.
Lana nodded her thank you and walked off towards the balcony. As soon as she had left, a female demon made her way to Sesshomaru. "Well, well. The stone cold Sesshomaru seems to have chosen a potential mate at last it seems." said the woman in a cold voice. Her skin was a pale blue, as was her excessively long, braided hair. Her eyes were a slightly darker shade of blue and she had barely and clothing on. She wore a ice blue cloak that was open to expose her cleavage and a skirt that showed her pale blue legs.
"Lady Shiva. I haven't seen you for a few decades." he smiled half- heartedly, but quickly frowned. "And I intend to keep it that way." He was stopped by her ice cold hands.
"Oh but Sesshomaru. I was hoping to catch up on old times. You were the only one who could ever make me melt." she moved her face towards his ear. "Not even the lord of the fire mountains could light me on fire the way you could in bed."
~ Lana walked out on the balcony. She sighed, glad to have escaped the crowd of people. The moon was bright, even as a half moon. "This is nice."
"You're telling me." said a man that was standing beside her. He seemed to be enjoying the fresh air as well. He was a tall, tanned skin man. His black hair was pulled into a ponytail. He wore a light brown kimono with a fur belt wrapped around his waist. "Hi there, I'm Koga. Leader of the wolf demon tribe."
Lana looked at him strangely. Koga? Where had she heard that name before? "Koga you say? Say you wouldn't happen to know Inuyasha now would you?"
Kouga growled at the sound of his second most hated enemy. Naraku being the first. "Yeah, he's traveling with my woman." he said coolly, shrugging his shoulders and grabbing a whine glass he had set on the top of the balcony's railing. "How do you know mutt- face?"
Lana held back her laughter for a moment. "Well it just so happens that Kagome is my cousin."
His eyes widened in disbelief. "That can't be. You're a demon."
"I'm not all demon." she said as she looked up briefly at the moon. "I'm part human. My father is all demon. And my mother is half demon, but she possesses the spiritual powers of a miko. I seem to have inherited those powers." she stopped and noticed that he was completely fascinated with her story. "So basically, somewhere in our family there's a demon who had married a human and here I am two generations later. I just attained my mother's maiden name. Not that you would know what that is."
"That's amazing." he said. "Well both of you are quite beautiful." he complimented as he looked her over. "In fact, if I didn't already have Kagome I'd probably consider you."
Lana couldn't help but laugh. "So Koga when was the last time you saw Kagome anyway?" she asked curiously.
"Well it has been about three months now. I've been busy lately. But I haven't forgotten her. She must miss me terribly doesn't she." he said in a cocky manner.
Lana sighed sadly. "Sorry Koga. I don't think she misses you that much. I think Inuyasha is keeping her kind of busy, if you know what I mean. Since they became mates, that is."
Koga's jaw dropped. "M-mates? T-they're mated?"
She nodded in pity. "Yes. I'm afraid so. Hey but I know she still thinks of you as her friend." she patted him on his shoulder but when she did he fell over. Lana leaned over him. His eyes staring at nothing and his jaw still wide open. "The poor guy. He fainted. Maybe I shouldn't have been so blunt." She walked back inside where the party was. "What the hell?" She saw Sesshomaru and some pale skinned, sleazy, promiscuous looking woman who was draping herself all over him. 'Oh hell no! He will not be falling over some skank whore! Not after he blackmailed me into being his mate! I'll show her!' Just as Lana was about to go tell that slut off, someone stopped her.
"Excuse me but I need to go handle...some...business." Before Lana's eyes was a tall lightly tanned man with a red-orange kimono with a fire pattern on the front. She was mesmerized by his features. His hair looked as if it was on fire itself, locks of hair spiked up, the blazing colors of fire. And his eyes—they were scarlet with a tint of orange in them. Lana almost thought that if she stared long enough they would actually set her on fire.
"Lady Lana I presume?" the man said in a deep, sexy voice. His smile sparkled as he looked at her.
She was snapped out of her daze. "Uh yes?"
He took her hand in his and gently kissed the top. "Allow me to introduce myself. I am Prince Ifrit, son of the lord of the fire mountains. I will be the lord soon, however. My father is quite ill. But I didn't come to tell you that. I was going to ask if you would do me the great pleasure and come join me for a moment?" he asked kindly.
Hesitant at first, Lana allowed the fiery demon lord to lead her off to a sit down area where several guests were in conversation while others were drinking heavily. 'Bunch of drunks. I'm glad those days are over for me. Got me in a lot of trouble.' They walked over to a table that was empty. Prince Ifrit pulled out a seat for Lana. "Thank you."
"So what exactly did you want to discuss." she asked, curious as to why he would stop her from pounding her fists into that chick.
"Well before I explain myself, why don't we order some sake. I can tell that you're a bit...unsettled. Perhaps a few drinks will calm your nerves." he suggested.
Lana pouted in annoyance. "You really think I'm unsettled?" her eyes narrowed at him. "You've never seen me UNSETTLED Prince Ifrit."
The demon lord laughed softly. "Of course. I just felt that I should stop you from doing something drastic. We wouldn't want a beautiful demon like you to act out in jealousy now would we."
Her eyebrow twitched in anger. Jealous? Her? Of some sleazy chick? Over Sesshomaru? A servant came by and placed down two glasses and a large pitcher of sake. He poured both of their glasses full and left the pitcher on the table. "I assure you I am not jealous." Lana muttered as she grabbed her glass and drank down all of her sake in one gulp before taking the pitcher and refilling her glass. "The reason for my anger is something that only Sesshomaru and myself would understand. I think you would understand if you knew the circumstances." she paused to drink her glass again. "But I'm not in a mood for sharing...so you should tell me what you called me here for." she said, once again refilling her glass. "Well, that woman over there is the Lady and sole ruler of the Northern lands. Her name is Lady Shiva. Her powers are that of cold and ice." he paused when he noticed that Lana had not stop drinking and refilling her glass. "Perhaps you should stop or at least take it easy with the sake."
Lana snorted at his comment. "I am fine. And anyway I don't see why I should care about anything that has to do with that woman. I just want to pulverize her." Another glass of sake was consumed. *hiccup* "I could whoop her silly" *hiccup*.
Ifrit's whole facial expression became a whole lot serious. "Yes well that is what I am getting at. You see, she is a much more formidable person than she seems. She is quite dangerous and ruthless once she is crossed. I wanted to warn you to be wary of your actions."
Lana bursted out in laughter. "You know, I beat Sesshomaru the first time we met. Two months later I'm twapped into being his mate. Becwause he..." somewhere along the conversation Lana had told him about her situation with Sesshomaru. She hadn't did it purposely, but due to her drunken state she just spilled it out. "Anyways...your lordiness. I not going to just let him do as he pweases. Me thinks you should mind yours and let me go handle my bizness." she got up staggering out of her seat.(A/N: the misspellings were on purpose)
Ifrit quickly flew to her side before she fell. "Lana you're drunk you should sit a while. You're not thinking wisely."
"Let go of me!" she yelled at him, jerking out of his arms. She began heading in the direction where Sesshomaru was. Prince Ifrit close behind her.
Sesshomaru grew tired as he was being harassed by Shiva. He wanted to leave. His eyes scanned the room in search for Lana. Then he heard her yelling and became curious as to why. He saw her, barely holding herself up and the Prince of the fire mountains assisting in keeping her from falling. Sesshomaru noticed that his hands were on her hips a lot. A surge of anger washed over him. But then he sensed that he wasn't the only one who was angry when he saw Lana storming over directly towards him.
When Lana finally made it over towards Sesshomaru, she rudely pushed lady Shiva off of him. "Excuse you. Haven't you ever heard of self dignity. How dare you drape yourself over my future mate like that you slut!" she yelled at her.
"Well, I see some one has had a little to much sake." the ice demon said coldly. "I think you could have done much better than her Sesshomaru. She's just a child. Look at her all drunk." she laughed.
Lana narrowed her eyes at her, balling up her fists. "What did you say?"
"Forgive me Lord Sesshomaru. We sat down to chat and I ordered some sake." said Ifrit. "We had a very...interesting talk. About the circumstances of your courtship with Lady Lana." he sent an angry glare to the Lord of the West.
Sesshomaru arched his brow. "Did you now? After of course you got her drunk." the two lords just glared at each other. That was until Lana suddenly threw a punch at Shiva, sending her flying a few feet backwards.
Everything stopped. The music stopped playing. People stopped talking. All eyes were on the four demons. Lady Shiva got up in a rage. "How dare YOU!" she roared. "Do you not know who I am!"
Lana crossed her arms and snorted. "I don't give a rat's ass who you are. You will not disrespect ME like that. You got that bitch."
"Oh, I will enjoy annihilating you." Shiva began to glow with a strange power. "You will die and Sesshomaru will be rid of a child like you."
"Bring it. I guarantee you will not lay a hand on me." Lana said with a smirk of confidence.
Lord Leviathan walked over to Sesshomaru. "Oh boy a duel. This should be quite interesting, don't you think." he looked at Sesshomaru who was smiling. "And what is so amusing?"
Sesshoamru grinned. "I find it amusing that Lady Shiva is about to get more than what she expected. I would never pick someone weak to be my mate Lord Leviathan."
The dragon demon nodded. "I should have known there was more to her than her flawless looks."
"That's enough." said a female voice.
"How unfortunate. My lovely mate has come to end the duel before it had even begun." Leviathan sighed. "What seems to be the problem my dear?" He turned to face a woman with long blonde hair, emerald green eyes, tanned skin and wearing a golden kimono.
"Do not play with me Leviathan. You may enjoy duels between women, but I will not have senseless bickering in my home." she looked at the two demons who were about to go at it then at Sesshomaru. She smiled at him briefly before walking in the middle of the cat fight.
"Don't interfere Siren. I must put her in her place." hissed Shiva.
"You will not tell me what to do in my own home Shiva." she replied. She turned to Lana and grinned inwardly. "So you are the lucky girl who captured Sesshomaru's attention. Very beautiful indeed. I am Lady Siren. I am the mate of Lord Leviathan."
"You are befriending her Siren?" Shiva asked in disbelief. "She is nothing to us. A low demon who just happens to have a few looks and managed to get up in society by throwing herself at one of our own. Even Prince Ifrit can't keep his hands off of her after she flirts with him."
"That is enough. As I saw it, it was you who was draped over HER future mate. If it were me, you would have been running out of here. I believe you owe her an apology." Siren said as she stood with her arms crossed with her head up high.
Shiva snarled at her. "I will not apologize to a child. Especially not in front of all these people."
"Then I think you should leave. Now." her voice was stern.
The ice demon growled at first, sending an angry glare at Lana before moving to the exit. Before she left she whispered something. "This is not over little girl."
Lana saw her leave and laughed out loud. "Oh this is far from over." she began to follow her outside. She only made it two steps before lost her balance and began to fall. In a second, Sesshomaru had caught her. Prince Ifrit also ran by her side.
"Lana what is wrong?" Sesshomaru asked. He looked to see Ifrit kneeling down next to him and wanted nothing more than to rip out his throat out for getting Lana drunk. "Lana can you hear me, say something."
"Ugh...am I in heaven...or am I just seeing two Sesshomarus and Ifrits." she said indistinctly before blacking out completely.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~
She felt a pair of strong arms holding her tightly. When she realized that her feet weren't on the floor, she knew she was being carried. But by who? Her eyes opened slowly and she looked up into a pair of golden eyes. "Sesshomaru?"He looked down at her with hi normal expression, but his eyes showed both anger and worry. He let out a soft growl and looked back up away from her. Lana looked to the side and noticed that they had returned to his castle and were heading down the halls to his room.
When they entered the room he set her down before locking the door and turning back to her. "I want an explanation as to what your were talking about with Prince Ifrit. Now." he demanded.
Lana tilt her head in confusion before smiling strangely at the demon lord. "And that is?" she giggled as she took a step towards him. Once again she lost her balance and stumbled into his arms.
His nose wrinkled in disgust. "You are still drunk. That idiot got you drunk and I am going to find out why." he snarled.
Lana looked at him and laughed. "I'm not drunk Sesshy. Maybe a little tipsy, or maybe I'm just hot for you." she threw her arms around his neck. "You know, I'm finding you extra sexy right now." she breathed into his ear.
Her words sent a surge of heat through his groin. She was still in heat, but now she had little to no control over her actions what so ever. Not enough to deny what her body wanted anyway. He decided that this was it. This was the time to take her. But he chose to play it smart. He would get her to beg for him. Have her so on fire for him that even if she did come to her senses she wouldn't have the will power to want to stop.
"Sesshomaru. You know what I want?" she asked seductively. Her fingers played with his hair and she began to plant small kisses on his throat.
He smirked at her question. "No Lana. Tell me what it is that you desire."
She stopped kissing his neck to look him dead in his eyes. Her body moved closer to his and she could feel his hard cock pressing against her belly. She smiled slightly before grabbing the back of his neck and pulling him into deep kiss.
The kiss was filled with hunger and desire. Lana parted her lips and Sesshomaru quickly slid his tongue in her moist mouth. He could slightly taste the sake in her mouth, along with her natural sweetness. He backed her up onto his bed, without breaking the kiss. His hands began to undo her kimono, gently letting it fall of her lightly tanned shoulders. Next, he successfully cut open her bra, exposing her medium-sized, but very firm breasts. He pulled away from her mouth only bring his head down to take her hardened nipple into his mouth. Lana moaned slightly at the feeling of his hot mouth on her. After he finished with both of her breasts, he pulled away from them and stood back up to kiss her again.
During the kiss, Sesshomaru pushed Lana back to lay her on the bed. He began to undo his clothes and in a few seconds he was completely naked, exposing all his glory. Lana braced herself on her elbows to get a good look at him. She gaped. He looked even more fabulous naked than he did clothed. His member was big and bold. She grabbed his hand and pulled him on top of her. They were now eye to eye. The only clothing in their way was her silk panties which Sesshomaru swiftly plunged his hand into and touched her. She was clearly wet and ready for him. A strangled moan escaped Lana as she began to become impatient. Her demon blood told her that she wanted him, needed him inside of her and now. "Sesshomaru...take me now." she whispered in his ear desperately.
He positioned himself between her legs and leaned down for another amorous kiss. Sesshomaru ripped off her underwear and slipped his engorged manhood inside her at the same time he slipped his tongue into her mouth. Her wet warmth seemed to surround him everywhere. Lana gasped feeling him inside of her. She had never experienced anything close to his size before. Her arms slipped beneath his, her hands holding firmly to his back as he began to thrust, slow but hard. He grabbed her hips and raised them, and she wrapped her legs tight around his waist. He watched her eyes darken slightly and her cheeks flushed. Her breathing turned to panting and was then lost in high-pitched cries of pleasure as his pace quickened. He pumped into her with all the suppressed desire in him. Lana was so close to her release, her inner muscles tightening around his cock. Sesshomaru moaned loudly. He couldn't hold back for much longer. With a great moaning roar, he thrust deeper and faster, tossing her over the edge. As soon as he felt his own release approaching, Sesshomaru moved his mouth over to the junction between her neck and her left shoulder and began to lick the soft flesh in that spot. She screamed out in ecstasy as she came. Her claws digging into his back leaving trails of his blood. After a few more thrusts, he shuddered and his seed spilled into her violently. He bit down into her skin, making her gasp at the feeling of his fangs sinking into her flesh.
Sesshomaru was still planted inside of her when he withdrew his mouth from her neck. After he licked off the blood he drew from marking her, he looked at her and was astonished by her appearance. Lana's face was covered in sweat, causing her hair to cling to her face. Her breathing was beginning to return to normal. A sense of male pride swept over the demon lord. She was his now. He finally marked her, and soon, she would become the mother of his children. He frowned when he noticed that she had fallen asleep beneath him. Being in her demon form, she should have had enough energy to go on for at least three more rounds. However, due to her intoxication both her mind and body were spent. As he gently pulled out of her and rested beside her, Sesshomaru began to wonder just how intoxicated she had been. Would she be aware in the morning of what just occurred? He smiled as he focused his eyes on his mark that he had placed on her. He wrapped his arm around her slender waist and pulled her close to him, inhaling her scent. She was his now no matter what. Nothing or no one could take her from him. Nothing.
"You are mine now Lana." he murmured against the side of her throat before letting sleep take him.

A/N: ok so things are getting crazy huh. I figured getting Lana drunk was the only way of gettin her to willingly submit to Sessh. If this chapter sucked to you I apologize, even though it took forever to get up. I plan on adding some crazy things in the story. All I can say is that you have not heard the last of Naraku, Kikyo, or Shiva. The names for those other characters were from the hit games of Final Fantasy series 8, 9, and 10.
Any suggestions or ideas for up coming chapters that you think would make the story better or crazy will be greatly appreciated. I love you all and remeber this is my first story, ever!
C-Ya l8tr Dudes!!
A/N: I um, well this will be my first lemon, probably my last (because it will be so horrible). Please don't yell at me if it sucks ass, I apologize in advance. If there is anyone who can write one and would be willing to help me please e-mail me at HazelEyez326@aol.com.
So this is it huh. *takes deep breath* Well then here goes nuffin....

Chapter 11- Gettin' Tipsy
~
Jaken had ran quickly down the halls. As quickly as his little legs would permit. The letter in his hand, had been sent from the Eastern Lands. He knew that the lord of the east was a very important figure. Just as important as Lord Sesshomaru himself. He ran as fast as he could. He even tripped and fell onto his face on the hard stone floor, but he put aside his pain and persisted in delivering this important letter. Finally, he made it to his lord's chambers and knocked on the door like a mad person.
"Lord Sesshomaru! I have very urgent and important news for you. A letter has been sent from the lord of the east!" He stopped when he heard rustling and then a loud thud on the floor, as if someone had fell onto the floor. The thud was followed by an audibly low, but dangerous growl. Jaken gulped as he heard footsteps coming closer to him. They were heavy steps that he could even feel through the floor with his own tiny, toad feet. They were the type of footsteps made when one was very, very angry. "Uh...f-forgive me my lord...f-for disturbing you. I-I shall return later, after y-y-you..." He was silent when the door flung open and the tall and very angry demon lord was towering above him, glaring a him as if he wanted to kill him right there on the spot. "My l-lord..." Behind Sesshomaru, Jaken could see the girl that his lord had brought back to be his mate. Suddenly it dawned on him why his lord was so angry. He hadn't mated with her yet and was trying to seduce her. By sight of her flushed face and heavy breathing, he could tell that his lord had been in the middle of something...until he came and interupted him.
Jaken stooped gazing at his lord's woman when another growl came from the demon lord in front of him. "My-my lord! Please forgive me but...this letter!...Ahhh!"
Sesshomaru had slammed the door behind him violently. He grabbed Jaken by his neck and had him pinned against the wall behind him. Jaken's small feet dangled from the floor as he was now, for the first time, face to face with his master, and he was scared shitless. "Jaken, what letter could be so important that you would interrupt me when I was so close to claiming Lana!" he said in a monotone voice.
"M-ma-master...ughhgh!" Jaken was cut off when Sesshomaru's grip became tighter. Sesshomaru wanted to pop his little head off so badly at this point. "I should kill you Jaken." his voice couldn't be more promising to Jaken's ears. To him, his fate was surely sealed. Sesshomaru released Jaken's throat, causing the toad demon to fall hard on the floor. "If this letter isn't as important as you say it is, I will kill you." he said as he opened the letter to read it.
"It should be my *cough* lord, it bears the seal of the north." said Jaken as he rubbed his throat, thankful that it was still there.
After Sesshomaru finished reading he looked at Jaken with an arched eyebrow. "You are quite fortunate Jaken. It appears that this letter is quite important." He gave the letter back to Jaken. "Make the preparations necessary for travel on AhUn. I will be taking Lana along with me also."
"Y-yes my lord, right away." Jaken ran even faster than he had ran when he was delivering the letter. He was grateful to be running, still living.
Sesshomaru sighed heavily as he reluctantly proceeded to re-enter his room. He was still fuming in side. When he entered his room, he noticed that Lana had gotten fully dressed. Her bath toiletries were in her hands. She was going to bathe no doubt. 'I should have obliterated that worthless toad.' he cursed to himself. If only Jaken was even a whole minute late, he would have been inside of Lana, making love to her, making her his finally. But when they were interrupted, she had regained her senses and pushed him off of her and onto the floor. He still had the taste of her sex on his lips. So sweet, like a special honey that only her body can create. It reminded him just how close he was. He wanted more, now more desperate than before.
Lana was so confused. What came over her? She had begged him to take her. She couldn't even yell at him and blame him for it because deep down she did want him. But she wouldn't admit it to him verbally, she didn't have to, he could smell her desire for him all on his own and she knew it.
Sesshomaru moved closer towards her. "Lana..." he breathed out.
She heard him say her name. It was almost the same way he said it just a few minutes ago when he had asked her what she wanted. 'I wanted him.' Lana quickly stood up and walked towards the door, but he still stood in front of it, blocking her way. She growled at him in annoyance. "Excuse me...I" she was cut off when he once again claimed her lips.
He had to see if he still had a chance of luring her to him. He had to see if just by kissing her she would give in to his touch. When she didn't pull away and began to melt into his arms, he knew he had a chance. Sesshomaru broke the kiss, satisfied that he was still in control. A smile formed on his face as he looked at his future mate. Her eyes were half open, and her lips quivered as if she wanted more. He should have took her right there, but there would be time for that later. They had to get ready to leave. "Yes, you may take your bath. I just wanted to inform you that I have been called to meet with the lord of the east for this evening and I will be taking you with me."
Lana tried to regain her composure by taking a deep breath and reminding herself of what Sesshomaru did to get her here. She decided that it would be more effective if she went back to being her normal self. Stubborn, obstreperous, and headstrong. Just like his brother. "Don't touch me you pig! And maybe I don't want to go with you, ever thought of that?" she hissed at him while pulling herself out of his grasp. "How dare you take advantage of me like that!? You tried to seduce me didn't you?" her glare was full of anger yet they showed that she was unsure of what she was saying.
Sesshomaru knew what she was doing. He wouldn't give in now. Not when he was so close. "I took advantage of you, you say?" he said huskily as he advanced towards her. She gulped and took a step back. He smirked as he saw that she wasn't so headstrong anymore. "You could have made me stop." He stopped approaching her when they was only less than a foot away from each other.
"Don't even lie you asshole! I told you to stop. But you kept going didn't you." she yelled at him, raising a finger to his face. He took her hand that was in his face and brought her towards him. She gasped when he smiled at her mischievously, exposing his fangs.
The smile was soon replaced when a slight frown emerged on his face at her remark. "I assure you that this Sesshomaru does not lie." He could smell her fear. She was trying so hard to fight him but her body knew what it wanted. It was her stubborn mind that wouldn't accept the fact that they'd have to mate sooner or later. He decided that he would help her accept it, with the help of her own body. "Yes I admit that I continued to ravish your body when you asked me to stop." He paused for a moment to lean down to her ear. "But I recall that it was not I who begged to be taken." he whispered in a sultry voice that sent chills through Lana's whole body, before he gently licked her earlobe. A slight moan escaped her mouth when he did this.
"Damn you. I can't stand you. Why do you do this to me? Don't you care about spending the rest of your life with someone you love?" she said through clenched teeth as she buried her face in his bare shoulder.
"I have already expressed my feelings for you Lana." he said, lacking any emotions.
Lana pulled away from him, glaring at him angrily with her ice grey orbs. "I believe the only feelings for me that you have expressed were those of lust and desire." Quickly jerking out of his grasp completely, she made her way out of the room and stormed down the halls, leaving the demon lord alone to contemplate what she had said.
Sesshomaru simply gazed at the spot where Lana had just stood. Had she been right? Did he actually love her and not just desire her body? She had demonstrated her strength upon him, embarrassed him in front of his worthless half-brother an companions, knocked him, Sesshomaru, lord of the West, unconscious, and even rejected him as being her mate. Ever since he left her after their first, but brief, encounter, he could not stop thinking about her.
She was the only female demon who had ever laid a hand on him. Not to mention one of only few people who could actually hit him hard enough to cause him pain. That was what he wanted. A strong mate that was worthy of being his. His failure to find one was why he had yet to have a family of his own. Lana was the only one who had ever met his standards. He knew that she was not all demon but she was enough to satisfy him. Their children would be practically all demon. He doubted that they would even have human blood at all. Surely their demon blood would dissolve it.
He closed his eyes, a wave of relief calming him now having put all doubts aside. Sesshomaru knew that he had grown to care for his Lana. His demon princess. Hopefully she would forget about being in her human state and remain in her demon form forever.
~
The whole day had almost went by when Lana had finally made her way back to her chamber. She had managed to keep her self busy all day with Rin. She was grateful that Sesshomaru had kept Rin. If it weren't for the cheerful little girl, she'd probably go run off to the village to go visit her friends. She missed them. Even a grope from Miroku sounded good. She sighed heavily at her idea. Leaving the castle against that pomposity of a lord's permission would only complicate her situation more.
When Lana had returned to her room, she spotted Sesshomaru standing outside on the balcony. He seemed to be simply enjoying the sunset. The scarlet and orange rays reflecting off of his brilliant, silver hair. He appeared to not have noticed her entrance, continuing to gaze at the horizon. She continued to watch him. When Rin had told her that he had brought her back to life after being slaughtered by a pack off wolves, she refused to believe it. But when that annoying, yet quite amusing toad Jaken bursted out stating how it was no lie how his 'lord' generously resurrected Rin, she was shocked. He did have a heart. She felt kind of guilty afterwards. She had treated him like crap based on what she had learned from his brother and what he had done to her. He looked like an angel out in the majestic rays of the sun.
She realized that her feelings about him had changed since she came back here. Lana had a new outlook on him. He was a spoiled, arrogant lord who always had someone to wait upon him. He was wise yet lacked an understanding of how to get what he wanted. Like a child. Maybe he had fallen in love with her. Wanted her so bad that he just couldn't wait the old fashioned way of taking it slow. 'Well it's understandable. How can any man resist my charm?' She giggled, finding her little joke quite funny. Her laughter stopped when he turned around to face her.
"Well, it's about time you noticed I was here." she said jokingly.
Sesshomaru arched an eyebrow at her. "Silly woman. I was well aware of your presence the entire time. I could sense you approaching down the halls."
With an arch of her own brow Lana smirked at him amusingly. "Mnhmn. Right. I forgot your keen sense of smell." she laughed. "Huh?" She spotted a kimono laying out on the bed. It was the opposite of his. It was completely red except for the white that was like the red pattern on his. "Is this for tonight?" she asked while holding it up to examine it.
"Yes it is." he replied.
She turned to him and smiled before turning her attention back to the garment in her hands. "Cool, it's red. My favorite color. Besides blue."
Sesshomaru was glad that he had somehow pleased her. "I'm glad you find it appealing." he said as he inhaled her scent. "You should change quickly. I'd like to make a grand entrance, however, we wouldn't want to be too late."
Lana nodded her understanding. "I got you. I like to be fashionably late too." At first she was hesitant about getting dressed in front of him, but she didn't want another lecture about how her body now belonged to him so she just imagined that he wasn't there as best she could.
He watched her slide out of out her kimono. He tried his best to control his desire to grab her now and take her. He took a deep breath and closed his eyes. Just as fast as Sesshomaru had closed his eyes, when he reopened them she had the red kimono over her shoulders and proceeded to close it.
"Okay I'm ready now." she said flipping her hair back and making sure everything that should be covered was. She turned to face him and noticed his increased breaths. A smug look crept on her face. "What about you?" she asked teasingly.
"I'm fine." he murmured. He didn't like that she was teasing him. "Come." he extended his hand out to her. "AhUn should be ready for our departure."
"Yes, I can't wait to see how the other lords act." she said before taking his hand.
When they made it outside Lana could see a two-headed dragon beast. "Ah!" she gasped. "Please tell me that we are not riding that thing!"
Sesshomaru stopped to look at her, bewildered by her question. "You are afraid...of AhUn?" he asked incredulously.
"It's just that...well no but...I'm just not too secure about riding that thing." she answered.
He walked over to AhUn and climbed on its back. "When I pulled you out of the river, you were secure on its back." He signaled for her to come over to him.
Lana hesitated to approach at first. "Well I was unconscious wasn't I?" she pointed out before walking over to the beast. She reached out her hand so that Sesshomaru could help her up. Her hand was shaking. She had never consciously experienced riding on such an animal. When she was on its back, she made sure that her arms were tightly clasped around the demon lord's waist. She made a small squeal when the beast stood up. Then suddenly, they began to rise off of the ground. Lana's eyes widened at the realization that they weren't just going to ride to their destination, they were going to fly there. "Oh shit...you didn't say this thing was going to fly us over there!" Sesshomaru chuckled softly as she began to panic senselessly. "I hope that you remember not to use such language in the presence of the other lords Lana. If you succeed in embarrassing me in any way I will not continue to be as kind as I have been with you. Do we have an understanding?"
She pouted at him in annoyance. "I know how to act with the upper class Sesshomaru. It won't be the first time that I am around important people you know."
"Then we do have an understanding." he said finally, before motioning for the two-headed dragon to take off.
~
*a few hours later*
"Ughh. Are we there yet." Lana asked moaned, she was becoming sick. "I think I'm going to hurl if I'm not on solid ground soon." Her grip on him became tighter than before.
Sesshomaru looked down to see just how far they were. He could see the castle a few miles ahead. It wouldn't be long now. "AhUn, we must make haste." he ordered. He didn't want to have vomit all over him. "Try to...control yourself a while longer Lana. We shall be there in a few moments."
She nodded weakly. "Okay. But I make no promises."
About five minutes later they were landed. Sesshomaru got off first to help Lana down. She was a mess. Her hair was in every direction it seemed and her complexion had gone to a sick green. As soon as he placed her on the ground she ran over to a near by bush and puked her lungs out. He walked over to her location to make sure that she had regain her health.
"Damn. Now I look like shit." She saw a small stream near by and walked over to wash out her mouth. She felt his presence behind her as she crouched down to scoop up a handful of water. "I'm fine now, if you were wondering." she looked over her shoulder to seem him staring at her. "Yes I know that I look like crap but you don't have to make me feel like it.
Sesshomaru carefully examined Lana's appearance. She actually looked kind of cute with her hair all messed up. Almost as if she had just made wild love. He shook that thought out of his mind quickly. As cute as she looked, it wouldn't be appealing for her to enter the lord of the east's home like that. He walked over to her and stooped down placing his hand on her hair, gently stroking it to smooth it out as best he could. When her hair was decent enough he stopped and rose up. "I think you look presentable." he said with a slight smile. "Come now. I believe we are late enough." Lana followed him towards the castle gates.
As they made their way through the gates, they could spot several other guests also entering the castle. "What is all this?" Sesshomaru asked confused. It seemed to be a social gathering instead of a meeting. He walked quickly up the stairs and towards the entrance, Lana close behind him. When he reached the top, a servant stopped him.
"Name please." asked the servant.
Sesshomaru looked at him. "Excuse me?"
"He asked for your name. You know, so that he can announce our arrival. You should calm down Sesshomaru." said Lana as she tried to figure out why he suddenly became so tense.
"Ah! Sesshomaru is it? Lord if the West if I recall correctly?" the servant replied upon hearing his name. He turned to Lana. "And you are my lady?"
"Hi, nice to meet you. I'm Lana." she said. She could hear music from within. Soft music, but still music none the less. 'If this is a meeting then why are they playing music?' she paused her thoughts and took a quick glance at who she was with. 'Probably to loosen up stiffs like him.'
"What a lovely name my lady. Please Lord Sesshomaru, proceed." the servant bowed as he told them to enter.
Lana took Sesshomaru's arm and hooked hers around it. "Shall we?" she smiled at him. He nodded and led her inside.
"Introducing Lord Sesshomaru of the Western Lands and his escort, Lady Lana." announced the servant.
Everyone in the room stopped what they were doing. The music continued to play and a small bit of chatter in the back as well. Sesshomaru led Lana through the crowd. Several bowed at his presence while others simply greeted him with a smile. A few snorts could be heard as well, but those who made them were no where near Sesshomaru.
Suddenly, a tall, slightly young looking man with hair the color of indigo and black, with a blue kimono and a black dragon design along the front began to approach them. "Ah, Lord Sesshomaru. I see you have received my invitation to my little gathering." the man greeted with bow.
Sesshomaru returned the bow before speaking. "Yes I did Lord Leviathan. But I recall that the letter stated that this was to be a meeting." he paused to look around the room. "This does not appear to be a meeting."
"Oh? Did it really say that this was a meeting? There must have been a misunderstanding." the indigo haired demon lord said innocently. "Well since you're here you might as well enjoy yourself." he stopped and noticed that Sesshomaru was not alone. "Or rather, yourselves. And who is this lovely young lady who is accompanying you tonight?"
As Sesshoamru began to speak, Lana quickly beat him to it. "Nice to meet you. My name is Lana." Leviathan took Lana's hand and gave it a small kiss on the back of it. "It is a pleasure to meet you as well Lady Lana. Welcome to my castle. I am Leviathan, lord of the east." he smiled at her warmly before turning his attention to Sesshomaru. "Tell me Sesshomaru, have you actually found a woman worthy of accompanying you to a social gathering." he grinned. A servant holding a plate with glasses of whine passed by and he took one taking a sip before hearing what the response to his question would be.
Sesshomaru made a half smirk and chuckled at his comment. "Actually, I am currently courting Lana. She is to be my mate."
Leviathan began to choke on his whine. Lana walked over to him and gently rubbed his back. When the lord of the east regained his breath he simply laughed. "Well I be. I thought I'd never see the day. You have my blessings." he looked down at Lana. "I wish the both of you many children."
Lana blushed at his statement. "Well um...thank you...I guess." she murmured her last words.
"Well now I must make a toast to this." Leviathan said as he went into the center of the room. "I wish to have everyone's attention. I wish to make a toast to a very important friend of mine." He turned to face Lana and Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru had his normal expressionless face on while Lana's face was a deeper shade of red than her kimono. "Here's to Lord Sesshomaru and his future mate, Lady Lana. May they have our blessings for a successful future together."
"Here, here!" the entire room agreed.
As everyone returned to what they were doing, Lana decided that she needed some air. "Uh Sesshomaru?" she paused to see if she got his attention. "Do you think I could go and get some air?"
He looked around and saw a huge balcony that led outside. "You may seek fresh air over there." he said pointing to the balcony.
Lana nodded her thank you and walked off towards the balcony. As soon as she had left, a female demon made her way to Sesshomaru. "Well, well. The stone cold Sesshomaru seems to have chosen a potential mate at last it seems." said the woman in a cold voice. Her skin was a pale blue, as was her excessively long, braided hair. Her eyes were a slightly darker shade of blue and she had barely and clothing on. She wore a ice blue cloak that was open to expose her cleavage and a skirt that showed her pale blue legs.
"Lady Shiva. I haven't seen you for a few decades." he smiled half- heartedly, but quickly frowned. "And I intend to keep it that way." He was stopped by her ice cold hands.
"Oh but Sesshomaru. I was hoping to catch up on old times. You were the only one who could ever make me melt." she moved her face towards his ear. "Not even the lord of the fire mountains could light me on fire the way you could in bed."
~ Lana walked out on the balcony. She sighed, glad to have escaped the crowd of people. The moon was bright, even as a half moon. "This is nice."
"You're telling me." said a man that was standing beside her. He seemed to be enjoying the fresh air as well. He was a tall, tanned skin man. His black hair was pulled into a ponytail. He wore a light brown kimono with a fur belt wrapped around his waist. "Hi there, I'm Koga. Leader of the wolf demon tribe."
Lana looked at him strangely. Koga? Where had she heard that name before? "Koga you say? Say you wouldn't happen to know Inuyasha now would you?"
Kouga growled at the sound of his second most hated enemy. Naraku being the first. "Yeah, he's traveling with my woman." he said coolly, shrugging his shoulders and grabbing a whine glass he had set on the top of the balcony's railing. "How do you know mutt- face?"
Lana held back her laughter for a moment. "Well it just so happens that Kagome is my cousin."
His eyes widened in disbelief. "That can't be. You're a demon."
"I'm not all demon." she said as she looked up briefly at the moon. "I'm part human. My father is all demon. And my mother is half demon, but she possesses the spiritual powers of a miko. I seem to have inherited those powers." she stopped and noticed that he was completely fascinated with her story. "So basically, somewhere in our family there's a demon who had married a human and here I am two generations later. I just attained my mother's maiden name. Not that you would know what that is."
"That's amazing." he said. "Well both of you are quite beautiful." he complimented as he looked her over. "In fact, if I didn't already have Kagome I'd probably consider you."
Lana couldn't help but laugh. "So Koga when was the last time you saw Kagome anyway?" she asked curiously.
"Well it has been about three months now. I've been busy lately. But I haven't forgotten her. She must miss me terribly doesn't she." he said in a cocky manner.
Lana sighed sadly. "Sorry Koga. I don't think she misses you that much. I think Inuyasha is keeping her kind of busy, if you know what I mean. Since they became mates, that is."
Koga's jaw dropped. "M-mates? T-they're mated?"
She nodded in pity. "Yes. I'm afraid so. Hey but I know she still thinks of you as her friend." she patted him on his shoulder but when she did he fell over. Lana leaned over him. His eyes staring at nothing and his jaw still wide open. "The poor guy. He fainted. Maybe I shouldn't have been so blunt." She walked back inside where the party was. "What the hell?" She saw Sesshomaru and some pale skinned, sleazy, promiscuous looking woman who was draping herself all over him. 'Oh hell no! He will not be falling over some skank whore! Not after he blackmailed me into being his mate! I'll show her!' Just as Lana was about to go tell that slut off, someone stopped her.
"Excuse me but I need to go handle...some...business." Before Lana's eyes was a tall lightly tanned man with a red-orange kimono with a fire pattern on the front. She was mesmerized by his features. His hair looked as if it was on fire itself, locks of hair spiked up, the blazing colors of fire. And his eyes—they were scarlet with a tint of orange in them. Lana almost thought that if she stared long enough they would actually set her on fire.
"Lady Lana I presume?" the man said in a deep, sexy voice. His smile sparkled as he looked at her.
She was snapped out of her daze. "Uh yes?"
He took her hand in his and gently kissed the top. "Allow me to introduce myself. I am Prince Ifrit, son of the lord of the fire mountains. I will be the lord soon, however. My father is quite ill. But I didn't come to tell you that. I was going to ask if you would do me the great pleasure and come join me for a moment?" he asked kindly.
Hesitant at first, Lana allowed the fiery demon lord to lead her off to a sit down area where several guests were in conversation while others were drinking heavily. 'Bunch of drunks. I'm glad those days are over for me. Got me in a lot of trouble.' They walked over to a table that was empty. Prince Ifrit pulled out a seat for Lana. "Thank you."
"So what exactly did you want to discuss." she asked, curious as to why he would stop her from pounding her fists into that chick.
"Well before I explain myself, why don't we order some sake. I can tell that you're a bit...unsettled. Perhaps a few drinks will calm your nerves." he suggested.
Lana pouted in annoyance. "You really think I'm unsettled?" her eyes narrowed at him. "You've never seen me UNSETTLED Prince Ifrit."
The demon lord laughed softly. "Of course. I just felt that I should stop you from doing something drastic. We wouldn't want a beautiful demon like you to act out in jealousy now would we."
Her eyebrow twitched in anger. Jealous? Her? Of some sleazy chick? Over Sesshomaru? A servant came by and placed down two glasses and a large pitcher of sake. He poured both of their glasses full and left the pitcher on the table. "I assure you I am not jealous." Lana muttered as she grabbed her glass and drank down all of her sake in one gulp before taking the pitcher and refilling her glass. "The reason for my anger is something that only Sesshomaru and myself would understand. I think you would understand if you knew the circumstances." she paused to drink her glass again. "But I'm not in a mood for sharing...so you should tell me what you called me here for." she said, once again refilling her glass. "Well, that woman over there is the Lady and sole ruler of the Northern lands. Her name is Lady Shiva. Her powers are that of cold and ice." he paused when he noticed that Lana had not stop drinking and refilling her glass. "Perhaps you should stop or at least take it easy with the sake."
Lana snorted at his comment. "I am fine. And anyway I don't see why I should care about anything that has to do with that woman. I just want to pulverize her." Another glass of sake was consumed. *hiccup* "I could whoop her silly" *hiccup*.
Ifrit's whole facial expression became a whole lot serious. "Yes well that is what I am getting at. You see, she is a much more formidable person than she seems. She is quite dangerous and ruthless once she is crossed. I wanted to warn you to be wary of your actions."
Lana bursted out in laughter. "You know, I beat Sesshomaru the first time we met. Two months later I'm twapped into being his mate. Becwause he..." somewhere along the conversation Lana had told him about her situation with Sesshomaru. She hadn't did it purposely, but due to her drunken state she just spilled it out. "Anyways...your lordiness. I not going to just let him do as he pweases. Me thinks you should mind yours and let me go handle my bizness." she got up staggering out of her seat.(A/N: the misspellings were on purpose)
Ifrit quickly flew to her side before she fell. "Lana you're drunk you should sit a while. You're not thinking wisely."
"Let go of me!" she yelled at him, jerking out of his arms. She began heading in the direction where Sesshomaru was. Prince Ifrit close behind her.
Sesshomaru grew tired as he was being harassed by Shiva. He wanted to leave. His eyes scanned the room in search for Lana. Then he heard her yelling and became curious as to why. He saw her, barely holding herself up and the Prince of the fire mountains assisting in keeping her from falling. Sesshomaru noticed that his hands were on her hips a lot. A surge of anger washed over him. But then he sensed that he wasn't the only one who was angry when he saw Lana storming over directly towards him.
When Lana finally made it over towards Sesshomaru, she rudely pushed lady Shiva off of him. "Excuse you. Haven't you ever heard of self dignity. How dare you drape yourself over my future mate like that you slut!" she yelled at her.
"Well, I see some one has had a little to much sake." the ice demon said coldly. "I think you could have done much better than her Sesshomaru. She's just a child. Look at her all drunk." she laughed.
Lana narrowed her eyes at her, balling up her fists. "What did you say?"
"Forgive me Lord Sesshomaru. We sat down to chat and I ordered some sake." said Ifrit. "We had a very...interesting talk. About the circumstances of your courtship with Lady Lana." he sent an angry glare to the Lord of the West.
Sesshomaru arched his brow. "Did you now? After of course you got her drunk." the two lords just glared at each other. That was until Lana suddenly threw a punch at Shiva, sending her flying a few feet backwards.
Everything stopped. The music stopped playing. People stopped talking. All eyes were on the four demons. Lady Shiva got up in a rage. "How dare YOU!" she roared. "Do you not know who I am!"
Lana crossed her arms and snorted. "I don't give a rat's ass who you are. You will not disrespect ME like that. You got that bitch."
"Oh, I will enjoy annihilating you." Shiva began to glow with a strange power. "You will die and Sesshomaru will be rid of a child like you."
"Bring it. I guarantee you will not lay a hand on me." Lana said with a smirk of confidence.
Lord Leviathan walked over to Sesshomaru. "Oh boy a duel. This should be quite interesting, don't you think." he looked at Sesshomaru who was smiling. "And what is so amusing?"
Sesshoamru grinned. "I find it amusing that Lady Shiva is about to get more than what she expected. I would never pick someone weak to be my mate Lord Leviathan."
The dragon demon nodded. "I should have known there was more to her than her flawless looks."
"That's enough." said a female voice.
"How unfortunate. My lovely mate has come to end the duel before it had even begun." Leviathan sighed. "What seems to be the problem my dear?" He turned to face a woman with long blonde hair, emerald green eyes, tanned skin and wearing a golden kimono.
"Do not play with me Leviathan. You may enjoy duels between women, but I will not have senseless bickering in my home." she looked at the two demons who were about to go at it then at Sesshomaru. She smiled at him briefly before walking in the middle of the cat fight.
"Don't interfere Siren. I must put her in her place." hissed Shiva.
"You will not tell me what to do in my own home Shiva." she replied. She turned to Lana and grinned inwardly. "So you are the lucky girl who captured Sesshomaru's attention. Very beautiful indeed. I am Lady Siren. I am the mate of Lord Leviathan."
"You are befriending her Siren?" Shiva asked in disbelief. "She is nothing to us. A low demon who just happens to have a few looks and managed to get up in society by throwing herself at one of our own. Even Prince Ifrit can't keep his hands off of her after she flirts with him."
"That is enough. As I saw it, it was you who was draped over HER future mate. If it were me, you would have been running out of here. I believe you owe her an apology." Siren said as she stood with her arms crossed with her head up high.
Shiva snarled at her. "I will not apologize to a child. Especially not in front of all these people."
"Then I think you should leave. Now." her voice was stern.
The ice demon growled at first, sending an angry glare at Lana before moving to the exit. Before she left she whispered something. "This is not over little girl."
Lana saw her leave and laughed out loud. "Oh this is far from over." she began to follow her outside. She only made it two steps before lost her balance and began to fall. In a second, Sesshomaru had caught her. Prince Ifrit also ran by her side.
"Lana what is wrong?" Sesshomaru asked. He looked to see Ifrit kneeling down next to him and wanted nothing more than to rip out his throat out for getting Lana drunk. "Lana can you hear me, say something."
"Ugh...am I in heaven...or am I just seeing two Sesshomarus and Ifrits." she said indistinctly before blacking out completely.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~
She felt a pair of strong arms holding her tightly. When she realized that her feet weren't on the floor, she knew she was being carried. But by who? Her eyes opened slowly and she looked up into a pair of golden eyes. "Sesshomaru?"He looked down at her with hi normal expression, but his eyes showed both anger and worry. He let out a soft growl and looked back up away from her. Lana looked to the side and noticed that they had returned to his castle and were heading down the halls to his room.
When they entered the room he set her down before locking the door and turning back to her. "I want an explanation as to what your were talking about with Prince Ifrit. Now." he demanded.
Lana tilt her head in confusion before smiling strangely at the demon lord. "And that is?" she giggled as she took a step towards him. Once again she lost her balance and stumbled into his arms.
His nose wrinkled in disgust. "You are still drunk. That idiot got you drunk and I am going to find out why." he snarled.
Lana looked at him and laughed. "I'm not drunk Sesshy. Maybe a little tipsy, or maybe I'm just hot for you." she threw her arms around his neck. "You know, I'm finding you extra sexy right now." she breathed into his ear.
Her words sent a surge of heat through his groin. She was still in heat, but now she had little to no control over her actions what so ever. Not enough to deny what her body wanted anyway. He decided that this was it. This was the time to take her. But he chose to play it smart. He would get her to beg for him. Have her so on fire for him that even if she did come to her senses she wouldn't have the will power to want to stop.
"Sesshomaru. You know what I want?" she asked seductively. Her fingers played with his hair and she began to plant small kisses on his throat.
He smirked at her question. "No Lana. Tell me what it is that you desire."
She stopped kissing his neck to look him dead in his eyes. Her body moved closer to his and she could feel his hard cock pressing against her belly. She smiled slightly before grabbing the back of his neck and pulling him into deep kiss.
The kiss was filled with hunger and desire. Lana parted her lips and Sesshomaru quickly slid his tongue in her moist mouth. He could slightly taste the sake in her mouth, along with her natural sweetness. He backed her up onto his bed, without breaking the kiss. His hands began to undo her kimono, gently letting it fall of her lightly tanned shoulders. Next, he successfully cut open her bra, exposing her medium-sized, but very firm breasts. He pulled away from her mouth only bring his head down to take her hardened nipple into his mouth. Lana moaned slightly at the feeling of his hot mouth on her. After he finished with both of her breasts, he pulled away from them and stood back up to kiss her again.
During the kiss, Sesshomaru pushed Lana back to lay her on the bed. He began to undo his clothes and in a few seconds he was completely naked, exposing all his glory. Lana braced herself on her elbows to get a good look at him. She gaped. He looked even more fabulous naked than he did clothed. His member was big and bold. She grabbed his hand and pulled him on top of her. They were now eye to eye. The only clothing in their way was her silk panties which Sesshomaru swiftly plunged his hand into and touched her. She was clearly wet and ready for him. A strangled moan escaped Lana as she began to become impatient. Her demon blood told her that she wanted him, needed him inside of her and now. "Sesshomaru...take me now." she whispered in his ear desperately.
He positioned himself between her legs and leaned down for another amorous kiss. Sesshomaru ripped off her underwear and slipped his engorged manhood inside her at the same time he slipped his tongue into her mouth. Her wet warmth seemed to surround him everywhere. Lana gasped feeling him inside of her. She had never experienced anything close to his size before. Her arms slipped beneath his, her hands holding firmly to his back as he began to thrust, slow but hard. He grabbed her hips and raised them, and she wrapped her legs tight around his waist. He watched her eyes darken slightly and her cheeks flushed. Her breathing turned to panting and was then lost in high-pitched cries of pleasure as his pace quickened. He pumped into her with all the suppressed desire in him. Lana was so close to her release, her inner muscles tightening around his cock. Sesshomaru moaned loudly. He couldn't hold back for much longer. With a great moaning roar, he thrust deeper and faster, tossing her over the edge. As soon as he felt his own release approaching, Sesshomaru moved his mouth over to the junction between her neck and her left shoulder and began to lick the soft flesh in that spot. She screamed out in ecstasy as she came. Her claws digging into his back leaving trails of his blood. After a few more thrusts, he shuddered and his seed spilled into her violently. He bit down into her skin, making her gasp at the feeling of his fangs sinking into her flesh.
Sesshomaru was still planted inside of her when he withdrew his mouth from her neck. After he licked off the blood he drew from marking her, he looked at her and was astonished by her appearance. Lana's face was covered in sweat, causing her hair to cling to her face. Her breathing was beginning to return to normal. A sense of male pride swept over the demon lord. She was his now. He finally marked her, and soon, she would become the mother of his children. He frowned when he noticed that she had fallen asleep beneath him. Being in her demon form, she should have had enough energy to go on for at least three more rounds. However, due to her intoxication both her mind and body were spent. As he gently pulled out of her and rested beside her, Sesshomaru began to wonder just how intoxicated she had been. Would she be aware in the morning of what just occurred? He smiled as he focused his eyes on his mark that he had placed on her. He wrapped his arm around her slender waist and pulled her close to him, inhaling her scent. She was his now no matter what. Nothing or no one could take her from him. Nothing.
"You are mine now Lana." he murmured against the side of her throat before letting sleep take him.

A/N: ok so things are getting crazy huh. I figured getting Lana drunk was the only way of gettin her to willingly submit to Sessh. If this chapter sucked to you I apologize, even though it took forever to get up. I plan on adding some crazy things in the story. All I can say is that you have not heard the last of Naraku, Kikyo, or Shiva. The names for those other characters were from the hit games of Final Fantasy series 8, 9, and 10.
Any suggestions or ideas for up coming chapters that you think would make the story better or crazy will be greatly appreciated. I love you all and remeber this is my first story, ever!
C-Ya l8tr Dudes!!
