Chapter 9 – Unwanted Visit

Kouga sat staring at the phone in disbelief, he couldn't believe the call he just got from that fucker Sesshoumaru. That guy that dared steal Kouga's woman? That man that dared get in his way? His mind went back to the conversation again, and kept going over and over the words spoken. His eyes flashed as he began to glare down at the phone. Who the hell did Taisho think he was by saying such things? Once again he sighed his mind starting over from the beginning

Flashback

Kouga sat at his desk reading over the papers he had had Ayame bring to him. After a while he had finally got her to leave her office and bring him the right ones. He still couldn't believe that the woman had brought him the wrong papers. He had clearly stated that he wanted the ones recently faxed by Naraku but no she brings him something entirely different. At this his phone began to ring and he quickly picked it up with ease.

"Yes, Ayame," he said knowing that Ayame most have someone she wanted to patch through on the other line.

"Umm… Mr. Menomaru, Mr. Taisho is on the other line and wishes to speak with you. Should I let him through, sir?" Ayame asked from her end.

Kouga sat there for a minute, well less then a minute when his mind came up with the conclusion of why Taisho would be calling. Yes the man wanted to tell him that he gave in and that he could have Kagome back. That had to be it so he quickly said, "Of course, Ayame."

Upon hearing his happy tune Ayame had pressed the button so Sesshoumaru could talk with Kouga. As soon as he heard the familiar beep, Kouga said, "So you've finally came to your senses and are going to give me back my woman?"

He heard Sesshoumaru growl into his end before saying, "No. I called to inform you that Kagome will no longer be able to be reached the way you have found. I still have no idea as to how you found her number but after tomorrow she will no longer be found there."

"What?" Kouga asked shocked. He really had no idea what Sesshoumaru was talking about. Then it hit him… Sesshoumaru knew that he had contacted Kagome. Who the hell cared? Kagome was his woman, his responsibility; therefore it was his right to call her.

"Really Menomaru are you hard of hearing?" Sesshoumaru asked in a mocking tone. His voice was cold as ice as it came through the phone.

"No but I want to know why you are so… so taken with what is mine that you won't even allow me to talk with her bastard?" Kouga growled into the phone standing from his seat. He couldn't believe Taisho was talking to him this way.

"Kagome is not your woman, and no longer your employee. This means you have no right to call her at all Menomaru. She is mine, well not my woman but she is my employee, which makes her my responsibility and as such I will not allow men to drool over her when they're clearly beneath her," Sesshoumaru spit out into the phone.

"I will have Kagome," Kouga growled, glaring at his desk.

"Listen here Kouga, if you come near Kagome again I will see to it that your company is no more," Sesshoumaru made the statement with force and Kouga knew the man meant business.

"Kagome is mine and I will speak with her even if you don't want me to Sesshoumaru," Kouga barked before slamming the phone down. He no longer wanted to talk to the bastard, but he knew that he hadn't been the first to hang up. No he had heard the click before taking the phone from his ear meaning Sesshoumaru had hung up right after his little speech ended. Groaning he looked down at the phone and shook his head.

End Flashback

Now he sat staring down at the object wondering what the hell had just happened? He really couldn't understand it. So now he just sat back leaning slightly thinking about what he would do next? What if Taisho moved Kagome out of the country, so she could work at one of his company's branches'? It would break his heart to know that Kagome was completely out of his reach. It would be all Sesshoumaru's fault and he would make sure the man sunk deep, no lost his company completely from this.

He could care less about Sesshoumaru's stupid threat. The man was nothing but big talk, and no action. He said a lot of shit but never really did anything to push his claim. Snorting, Kouga looked up at the ceiling. No matter what he was going to get his Kagome, and then make sure Sesshoumaru never looked at her again. The man was getting to close to his woman, and that didn't settle with him.

So sitting in his seat he decided that it would be best to call Naraku and have the Howling Inc. 'dance'. He always had a modern music 'dance' and then a ball like Lee's. Once he did he would be able to see Kagome, and hopefully get her to forgive him, or at least talk with him. Even if she didn't allow him to then at least he'd be able to see her once again.

oOo

Kagome pulled the leash, pulling Chance from the car. She wanted to see the reaction between her newest family member and her cats. Hopefully they got along, because she didn't want to give him up. It would be so depressing to actually get rid of him after just getting him. She loved him and she really wanted to keep him.

Nazuna sat beside her not really understanding why the dog wasn't even paying attention. Most dogs would be jumping up and down to see their new home, but this one was just looking out the window as if it could care less. It was an extremely strange dog to her. Hey it wasn't hers though and she wasn't going to complain.

Kagome laughed as Chance stepped from the car. He was such a big, smart dog. She watched as he began to sniff at the ground, before following her to the front door. Opening the front door she watched as both cats interacted with the large dog. Chance just yawned before laying on the floor uninterested in either of the little fur balls crawling on him.

"Well Kagome it would seem that they like each other," Nazuna said smiling over at the excited girl. Her mind went to Kagome's other half. Sesshoumaru really would be good for Kagome, just as she would be good for him. Once her plan got into action she was sure they'd come back a happy couple, instead of two people denying their feelings.

Kagome merely nodded watching as they 'played' with each other. Well it was more like Kirara and Buyo were playing with Chance, while the dog simply lay there not caring. Smiling she moved to the answering machine and let it begin to play.

Nazuna's nosy side was spiked when she heard Sesshoumaru-sama's voice coming through the machine. So he wanted to see Kagome about moving her, since Kouga had her number, and probably her address? Now where did this come in? Nazuna hid her grin as she listened to Sesshoumaru say, "Kagome you are to come over once you come home to discuss this with me." The way he made it sound, he wanted Kagome to live with him, not just anywhere.

Kagome sighed figuring she should call him first to tell him she was coming over. Really she didn't see why it was such a big deal that Kouga held her number within his grasp. Oh wait, yes, yes she did. Kouga wouldn't give up, and she really didn't want to see what would happen should he come over while she was home.

When Jaken picked up she said, "Sesshoumaru wished to speak with me."

"Miss Ki, you know that it's 'Sesshoumaru-sama' to you," Jaken said probably scowling on the other end.

"Look Jaken, right now I don't care just put him on the phone," Kagome snapped. She had no time for this and wanted to get it over with as fast as possible.

"Alright, you don't need to snap my head off. What is with young people these days, no respect, no respect at all?" he muttered into the phone. Kagome began to giggle by the time Sesshoumaru did get onto the other end.

"Is there something funny, Kagome?" Sesshoumaru asked.

Kagome stopped upon hearing his voice. She had never really noticed how smooth it was at times. Gulping at her own thoughts she said, "No, no… you wanted to speak with me, Sesshoumaru?"

"Yes, I do and you shall come over to the mansion so we may discuss it," Sesshoumaru said putting down the phone once done. Kagome sat silently wondering what was wrong with him? He didn't even allow her to say that she would be over in a few. Maybe that was his intention? Not that she cared but he could have let her have a reply.

"Nazuna I have to go 'visit' our boss for a little while. I'll drop you off before I go," Kagome said sighing afterward. She bent down to pet Chance before heading toward the door with Nazuna hot on her heels.

"So did he say anything on the phone?" Nazuna asked.

Kagome glanced back as if she were crazy before saying, "No just to 'come over'. I swear it sounded like he said, 'Just get your lazy ass over here Kagome.'"

Nazuna began to laugh with Kagome as they both climbed into the car. Once reaching Nazuna's house the woman turned to Kagome and said, "Now Kagome, don't do anything I wouldn't do." Then she began walking back to the house leaving a confused Kagome in her car.

Kagome sat there trying to figure out what the hell Nazuna was talking about. Her mind began to replay what she had said before suddenly she understood and groaned. She couldn't believe Nazuna thought she liked Sesshoumaru that way. Sure she would if he wasn't her boss, but other then that he was fine. WHAT THE HELL WAS SHE THINKING? Raced through her mind as she continued along the road.

oOo

Kagura drove to the Taisho mansion. She was dressed in a tight black shirt, and leather pants. Sesshoumaru seemed like the type to love a girl in leather so she figured maybe she could seduce him. After all she wasn't anything but a person who could pass him by on the streets now. Really he had to take her.

Kagome couldn't even compare to her from what she'd saw. Sure the girl was a rougher one, and held the curves of a goddess, but Kagura was so much better. She didn't have all those rough edges, and she was a lot prettier. Sesshoumaru just had to see the ice that was inside Kagome Ki's eyes. Maybe that would drive him away form the bad girl from hell. Yeah he had to see it and because of it he would come running to her.

She might have never gotten into bed with him but she was pretty sure he could see the fine woman she was. She was intelligent; she was pretty sure just by looking that little Kagome Ki didn't even finish college. She was beautiful so much more then that girl. She was a woman who knew how to pleased a man, something Kagome knew nothing about. She didn't even know why Sesshoumaru would have any type of interest in the little girl. Kami the little girl was just that an inexperienced little virgin. What would Sesshoumaru want with a virgin? Well maybe he would like to deflower her, but other then that she couldn't see any reason to keep the woman. Unless he was one of those sick people who liked to play with their treats before getting rid of them in the end. She really hoped he wasn't one of those types of men, and didn't like that bondage crap. She hated men like that; they were just too strange for her interests. Hopefully her Sessy-sama wasn't one of those or she would tell him to get his sex somewhere else, because she wasn't going to do such 'things'. She was just not that type of woman and wasn't going to be playing such games.

oOo

Sesshoumaru sat in his office, ready for when Kagome arrived. He had a few things to tell her and then begin moving her from her home to his. He was sure that it was the right choice to make. Really not being able to sleep was really getting to him and he couldn't understand why his body wanted to sleep beside hers. Maybe it was just something about her, or maybe it had something to do with fate. Every since he had slept beside her not to many nights ago, he couldn't continue to sleep by himself.

Then there was that kiss. He couldn't understand completely why he could still feel the tingling feeling it had send through his body. Then when ever he saw her it was like he just wanted to pounce on her. That woman made him want to just jump her, and make love until neither of them could move. Well at least until she couldn't move anymore and he could do whatever he wished with her sweet little body.

Sighing he turned the chair in his study toward the window. Outside that window was a large forest. He would often have been found inside that forest when younger. However now he just found it enjoyable to look out across the endless sea of trees to watch the sun set. The array of colors would be cast upon the treetops causing the colors to mix, and blend. Really it was very beautiful only because it was apart of nature, unlike this huge city man had created. It was real, while everything they made was unnatural. Everything out there lived, while everything man made never did, or never could. Well that wasn't always true but most of the time it was.

Looking across the treetops he watched as the sun set finally casting darkness across them. Everything became black, or darkened in color. His eyes flashed with memories unseen as he waited for his personal assistant to arrive. As the door began to open he turned and his jaw nearly fell open in shock, and then anger.

"Hello Sesshoumaru, have you missed me?" Kagura said closing the door behind her. It had been quite easy to get past that stupid little Jaken, and Mika was somewhere deep within the house.

oOo

Jakotsu sat with Kikyo. They had been friends for a long time though neither really knew why. He glanced over at the straight woman and sighed. Yes he could tell that Kikyo hadn't been very faithful to Inuyasha lately. He could just see it within her eyes that she hated the fool. Sure he had no remorse toward Inuyasha, but the guy needed to wake up and smell the coffee.

"Well like I was saying I got this cute little top early," Kikyo went on. She would always talk about clothes, either that or how good her life was. Yes her life must have been very good since she was always with another man everyday, while Inuyasha was at work.

Jakotsu wasn't as stupid as some people thought he was. No in fact he quite intelligent and knew for a fact that something was going on right once he saw Kikyo. He didn't know what but he was sure she was cheating on Inuyasha. He was always at work, and Kikyo was always 'away' from the house. He just put two and two together to get his conclusion, which he was pretty sure, was right.

The woman would learn one day that karma comes back around. She would lose everything she had going and then she would understand what it was like to be at the bottom of the leash. Kikyo thought her life was so good, but just wait until Inuyasha found out she wasn't as faithful as he thought she was. Her world would come crashing down and then she would learn that you don't cheat on a high time businessman with lots of power. Though Inuyasha didn't have that much, he could make sure Kikyo was miserable for the rest of her life.

Sighing Jakotsu began to listen to Kikyo's endless tale of what she did at the mall. Really it amazed him that the woman could do so many things, in one afternoon while at one mall. There were three or maybe more, he wasn't sure in Tokyo and she could spend thousands of dollars at just one. She most likely was their best customer. Then the fact that she could easily fit all nine or more stores she went to into a thirty-minute story was very interesting as well. Really even he couldn't fit every detail into that small of time.

Kikyo rambled on not realizing that Jak wasn't paying much attention anymore. She started to talk about the clothing shop she went into and what she bought there. She would even talk about how she went down the lines, or which clothes she hated from the place. Kikyo could always find something that didn't go with her tastes and she wasn't afraid to tell the clerk about it either. If it wasn't up to her status then she didn't even consider going back into the place.

Jak yawned when he was sure Kikyo wouldn't notice. Sure she was a friend but hearing the same thing everyday was very boring. Most of the time she wasn't even home if you were to call. He had to wonder if she even worried about getting some type of un-curable disease? Probably not since it was Kikyo Taisho he was thinking about. The woman didn't care about anything but herself, how much money her man had, the size of his dick, and if he could support her. In his opinion the woman needed to get a life, and fast before she screwed herself over so badly that she couldn't even get back on her feet.

Kikyo looked up and asked, "Jak are you paying attention?"

"Yes Kikyo, why do you ask?"

"Ok then, tell me what I just said," Kikyo countered.

Jakotsu sat there and shook his head telling her that he didn't know. He waited for her response knowing that she wasn't going to be happy about being ignored.

"I knew it. Tell me Jakotsu what has your mind so occupied that you can't listen to me?" Kikyo asked her eyes narrowing.

"Bank," Jak lied easily. That was always his answer and each time it seemed to please Kikyo. So he sat watching as the woman once again began her tale of her mall 'experience'. Really at times he wished he learned to pay more attention and less to his thoughts.

oOo

Kagura walked up to Sesshoumaru's desk her breasts being pressed together inside the tight material of her top. She watched as he narrowed his eyes but took no noticed before saying, "So how much have you missed me?"

"I haven't missed you at all. In fact Ms. Wind I have been quite fine after you left," Sesshoumaru bit out. He couldn't believe she was here and wondered what in the seven levels of hell he did to deserve this?

"Oh… come on don't be that way," Kagura purred leaning forward causing her top to hang a bit. It showed off the left strap of her bra and she batted her eyes at him. "I know that you can't be happy without me."

"Actually Kagura, I can and was," Sesshoumaru smirked when she straightened up in what seemed to be shock.

"So what you're happy with that little tramp Kagome Ki?" Kagura snarled. Her eyes flashed with anger as she slumped in the chair before his desk. She hadn't expected him to act this way and really couldn't find an answer as to why he would be?

"Kagome is none of your business. What I do with my employee's is my business and my business alone," Sesshoumaru glared at Kagura. He couldn't stand her, and her red contact really made him turn from her. They were just to weird for him, and he didn't quite understand why she would want to wear the damn things?

"Oh, I see you love her, don't you?" Kagura sat straight up in her seat glaring right back at him. Her hands came up and began to undo the back of her top in hopes of seducing him, even if she hadn't been able to so far.

Sesshoumaru smirked before saying, "So what if I do?" Really he could have slapped himself after that. He had just asked Kagura 'so what' if he loved Kagome? He didn't love Kagome, sure maybe a small attraction, ok big, but that didn't mean love.

Kagura's breath hitched and she began to smile seductively as she allowed the top to fall from her shoulders. "Come now Sessy, you can't tell me that this doesn't do something to you? Kagome is nothing, compared to an experienced woman like me," Kagura smirked as his eyebrow lifted.

Sesshoumaru didn't know what he'd done to deserve this either. She was doing a very bad job in trying to seduce him and didn't even seem to notice. "Kagura put your shirt back on and get out," he snapped, his eyes hard.

Kagura gasped before pouting. "You truly are an asshole. I can't wait tell you realize that Kagome Ki isn't as big as you seem to think she is. Then you'll come running back to me," she said walking around his desk.

Sesshoumaru glared once again watching as she slowly pressed her breasts to his side. Really he was feeling nothing and stood towering over her.

"See I knew you would come to your senses," Kagura said.

"Get out Kagura. Can't you see that your 'attempt' to seduce Sesshoumaru-sama has failed miserably?" Kagome's voice came from the door.

Kagura stiffened up turning toward the door. "What are you doing here, bitch?" Kagura hissed. She began walking toward Kagome wanting nothing more then to pouch the bitch again. How dare the little slut come to HER mans home?

Sesshoumaru grabbed Kagura's arm pulling her away from her target before saying coldly, "Get out now. I don't want you to ever come back Kagura. I don't even like you and your little attempts to seduce me will never work. If I see you again I will make sure your life is miserable."

Sesshoumaru hauled Kagura up even though she was only dressed in her bra and drug her from the study. Once down the hall he noticed that Kagome was finally following behind as he continued on his path to the front door.

Kagura hung onto his arm, his words still ringing in her ears. Tears began to well in her eyes as she replayed him saying he didn't want her. She had been wrong. She had been totally wrong; Sesshoumaru hated her. He wanted nothing to do with her and she thought that he loved her. How could he do such a thing? How could he be so cruel? Why couldn't he see that she loved him? Why… why… why did things like this always happen to her?

Sesshoumaru walked to the front door and opened it, causing the wood to hit the wall. He then gripped Kagura's arm tighter before tossing her outside and into the front lawn. He snorted before saying, "Don't come back Kagura."

"Here," Kagome called tossing Kagura's top beside the fallen female, "we wouldn't want you coming back saying you forgot something." Her cold eyes gazed down at Kagura as she watched the woman begin to cry.

"SESSHOUMARU, YOU BASTARD! I'LL MAKE YOU PAY FOR DOING THIS TO ME," Kagura yelled grabbing her top and running from the scene. She had never been so humiliated and she was going to make them pay no matter what it took.

Sesshoumaru shook his head not understand what it was that caused that unwanted visit from Kagura. It amazed him how much the woman didn't think. Kami, if she just paid attention she would have known long ago that he wanted nothing to do with her. If she hadn't tried so many times to seduce him, she'd still have a good paying job. Maybe someday she would learn to think before leaping into action, just maybe.

"So you wanted to talk to me about something Sesshoumaru?" Kagome asked following him back to the study. She really wanted to know what it was that he wanted to do about Kouga. She needed to get the idiot man to understand that she wanted nothing to do with him, and that he needed to leave her alone. Maybe with Sesshoumaru's help, Kouga would finally see that she was just not his woman.

"You will be living here from now on," Sesshoumaru said casually.

"What?" Kagome asked her eyes wide. She had never expected this and couldn't believe that he would even say such a thing.

"I will not repeat myself Kagome. To keep Kouga away from you, you will be staying here," Sesshoumaru said before realizing he had repeated himself during his little speech.

"What about my apartment? Or my animals?" Kagome said her voice almost a whisper.

"The cats won't be a big problem. Your dog will have plenty of room to run while living here. Plus there is plenty of space for more people if you decided to adopt next," Sesshoumaru replied the last part barely heard.

"You know that sounds like a great idea. I've always wondered what it would be like to have a son, or daughter," Kagome grinned.

Sesshoumaru looked up not believing he'd just said such a thing. Now the goody, goody Kagome was going to see about adopting a child. That would be just great, a child running around the mansion.

"Still though, I don't know…" Kagome sighed.

"Kagome living here you won't have to pay rent. Living here you will be given a nicer car to drive to work. Living here you won't be bothered by Menomaru," Sesshoumaru listed. He was about to go on but Kagome's voice chirped in.

"Ok I get it. Fine I will live here, but you will give me space," Kagome said eyeing him. She was sure the last time she was in that guestroom she felt a weight leave the bed during the night. She didn't want to think about it, but what is he'd slept beside her.

"Very well, you will get this space you speak of. We will begin moving your things to the room three doors down from mine in two days," Sesshoumaru said before waving his hand to dismiss her.

Kagome bit her tongue so she didn't yell his head off. The man was still treating her like a slave and they weren't even at work. It took all her power not to yell his head off about not being his slave, and that because they weren't at work he held no right to dismiss her. Walking from the study, Kagome sighed, what would it be like to live with the man? That was really going to hard, if he kept up with his habits.
