Chapter 2

Love blossoms.

Two days later Inutaishou has returned to his castle. Sesshomaru greeted his father and asked "Where have you been Father?" The demon lord sighed and said "I was wounded by Ryukotsusei so I was held up." Sesshomaru then asked "Who took care of you?" Inutaishou smiled and said "A human princess took care of me. And I think I'm falling love." The young demon got angry and said "Father don't be foolish. I you want another mate. Find a demoness not a human." Inutaishou also got angry and said "I'll fall in love and mate with who ever I please." With that said Inutaishou left the castle. He transformed and started to patrol his lands. As he walked he growled and tried to clam himself down. Sesshomaru also transformed and started to patrol his half of his father's land.

The demon lord patrols the northern half of his lands. And Sesshomaru patrols the southern half. Luckily Izayoi's mansion in the northern half of the demon lord's lands. And that's the half Inutaishou patrols. At Izayoi's mansion the young woman is in the garden. She looked up at the sky and wondered if the demon lord will visit. Four days later Inutaishou is on his way to Izayoi's mansion. When he arrived in a field of flowers he untransformed. The demon lord picked some flowers and kept going. Once he arrived at the mansion he jumped over the wall and landed in the garden. There in the middle of the garden is Izayoi. The demon lord walked up to her and said "Well I hope your offer for me to visit is still open."

Izayoi stood, smiled, and said "Of course the offer is still open." Inutaishou the flowers to Izayoi and said "Pretty flowers for a pretty lady." The young woman blushed and said "Thank you very much." Once again the demon lord is lucky Takemaru isn't there. For the whole after and into the evening. Inutaishou and Izayoi talked and flirted. Just then the demon lord looked at the sky. He looked down at Izayoi and asked "Would you like to watch the sun set with me?" The young woman nodded and said "Sure I will." Inutaishou smiled and said "Get on my back and hold on tight. I know the perfect place." The young woman got on the demon lord's back. Suddenly Inutaishou transformed which surprised Izayoi. She gasped and said "I didn't know you could do that." The huge white dog demon started walking and said "Of course I can all full blooded demons can."

He stepped over the wall and headed toward the spot he knew. The demon lord stopped at a tall flowered hill. He let Izayoi get down and untransformed. Inutaishou and Izayoi sat on top of the hill and watched the sun set. After the sun set before leaving Inutaishou said "I can bring you here every evening if you want." The young woman nodded and said "I would love to." Inutaishou smiled, let Izayoi get on his back, transformed, and went back to the mansion. Once back at the mansion the demon lord untransformed. He smiled and said "Here you are safe and sound." Izayoi blushed and said "Than you very much. I has a wonderful afternoon and evening." The demon lord nodded and said "You're welcome and so did I. And I'll return tomorrow evening." Izayoi smiled and said "I can't wait to see you again."

Inutaishou transformed and left to finish his patrol. The young woman watched the demon lord leave until she couldn't see him. Inutaishou walked through the night. To finish patrolling his lands. At dawn that morning he arrived back at the castle. He went into his room and laid his swords down. Then he took off his pelts and armor. Inutaishou then walked over to his bed and laid down. He closed his eyes and fell asleep. The demon lord didn't wake until a servant announced that dinner is served. He got up and put on his armor, pelts, swords, and went to the dinning room. As he ate Sesshomaru returned from his patrol. Inutaishou looked up and asked "Do you have anything to report Sesshomaru?"

The young demon shook his head and said "No nothing to report. I don't think you'll see Ryukotsusei for a while." Inutaishou nodded, stood, and left. After the demon lord left Sesshomaru growled and said "He's probably going to go see that human wench again." The demon lord ran toward Izayoi's mansion. When he got there he jumped over the wall and landed in the garden. He looked around and didn't see Izayoi. Just then the young woman came out wearing a sky blue kimono. Inutaishou saw how beautiful Izayoi looked and swallowed. Izayoi smiled and asked "Do you like my new kimono?" The demon lord also smiled and said "It's very nice it makes you look very beautiful." Izayoi blushed, smiled and said "Thank you Inutaishou." He nodded and let the young woman get on his back.

Once she was on his back the demon lord transformed. This time his transformation didn't surprise Izayoi. She looked and saw that she is the middle of Inutaishou's back. The young woman looked down and saw how high off the ground she is. She also saw the demon lord's four long white legs. Then she looked behind her and saw the rest of Inutaishou's back and tail. Izayoi looked forward and saw the back of the demon lord's head and ears. She smiled as she felt the early spring breeze and Inutaishou's fur. The demon lord's fur is the softest she's ever felt. Just then Inutaishou said "You can get down now we have arrived." Izayoi climbed down and Inutaishou transformed. The young woman thinks Inutaishou is very handsome in his regular form. But when he transforms she thinks he's magnificent.

The two of them sat on the hill and watched the sun set. The sun turned the sky pink, purple, and light orange. Izayoi smiled and said "I just love the colors they're so beautiful. Inutaishou nodded and said "Yes they are beautiful just like you are." The young woman giggled, blushed, and said "No I am not." Inutaishou looked Izayoi in the eyes and said "Yes you are beautiful. Don't deny the fact that you are." Izayoi nodded and said "Ok I won't." When the sun set the young woman got on the demon lord's back. As he walked back to the mansion Izayoi stroked his fur. When he was in the forest by the mansion. He said "Izayoi you can get down now. The young woman didn't answer. So Inutaishou said "Myouga go see if she's ok."

The flea demon hopped down his master's back. Then he said "She's curled up in your fur asleep." The demon lord nodded and said "Don't wake her I'll just lay down here ad let her sleep." Inutaishou walked in a circle then laid down. He's curled up in a huge white ball. The demon lord closed his eyes and went to sleep. In the morning when the sun rose Izayoi woke. When she did she realized that she's still laying on Inutaishou's fur. Izayoi climbed down and walked over to the demon lord's head. She smiled and said "It's time to wake up Inutaishou. The huge white dog demon opened his eyes. He stood and untransformed. After he untransformed he asked "How did you sleep?" Still smiling the young woman said "I slept very well thank you. I have to go now though." The demon lord bent down and kissed Izayoi on the cheek.

Then he said "That's ok I'll see you this evening. With that said Inutaishou walked into the forest. When Izayoi couldn't see him anymore. She walked toward the mansion blushing. Ad the days turned into week, and weeks turn into two months. Inutaishou and Izayoi grew closer. Now they hold hands and kiss on the lips. Right now they are sitting on a cliff watching the sun set. After the sun set Izayoi got on the demon lord's back. Inutaishou transformed and started walking. Suddenly a huge eagle demon grabbed the young off of Inutaishou's back. The demon lord growled and ran off the cliff.

He jumped and clawed the eagle. The eagle dropped Izayoi who landed on Inutaishou's back. Not dead yet the eagle dug it's talons into the dog demon's side. The eagle hit a tree and died. Izayoi held on tight as Inutaishou fell to the ground. The demon lord hit the ground with a thud. He yelped, untransformed, and feel to the ground. Izayoi also feel but stood right back up and went over to Inutaishou. His armor and shirt is soaked with his blood. The young woman took off the demon lord's pelts, armor, and his shirt. She tor off a sleeve off his shirt. Izayoi saw a deep gash on Inutaishou's side. She put the sleeve on the wound and applied pressure. Soon the demon lord's bleeding stopped but his wounds need taken care of. So she helped Inutaishou get his things, help him get up, and headed to the mansion.

Once at the mansion Inutaishou laid his swords, armor, and pelts on the floor. The he laid down on the bed and let Izayoi take care of his wound. After she was done she saw a thrid sword that she never seen before. She looked at the sword and asked "Is that a new sword?" The demon lord nodded and said "Yes it is I had it forged to protect you. The sword's name is Tetsusaiga." Izayoi nodded and said "That was very sweet of you now rest." Inutaishou nodded and fell asleep. The young woman left the room. She went to her room and went to sleep also. In the morning after Izayoi got dressed she went to Inutaishou's room. When she went into the demon lord's room. She saw that he is up ad around. Her eyes went wide and asked "Should you be out of bed?"

Inutaishou took off the bandage to reveal his healed wound. The young woman smiled and gave him a new shirt. He shook his head and said "I don't need it right now. Because I have a question for you." Izayoi smiled and said "Ask away my dear. the demon lord smiled also and asked "Will you become my mate?" Izayoi nodded and said "Of course I will." With that said Inutaishou bit Izayoi's neck. Then they stripped each other naked. The demon lord and the young woman made love. Three hors later they got dressed. Then went to the dinning room and ate. After eating Inutaishou had to leave. He has to leave because he hasn't patrolled his land lately.

He promised to return as soon as possible. The demon lord kissed his mate passionately then left. Unfortunately Takemaru saw the kiss. He went up to Izayoi and asked "Are you in love with that demon?" She nodded and said "Yes I am and I'm his mate.
