Chapter Two: Desiring the Human

'She wants to leave. Was this not the life she wanted?' thought Sesshomaru.

Initially he wanted to check on the little girl he left but when he saw the woman, he was frozen.

'Beautiful' he muttered. She stirred something in his yokai, the need to protect and…the urge to claim her. Never had this happened to him before, this primal need for something. Sesshomaru knew to stay away but he wanted to see her.

'Was this truly the same girl he had left here? His Rin?'

Against his better judgment, he entered her hut. She lay upon a matt with a blanket covering her waist down. Rin only had on the thin layer of her nightdress.

The demon lord went on one knee and reached his hand to her cheek. As he had done the time his mother brought her back from the underworld.

Her eyes shot open and stared into his golden ones, it was so dark Rin only saw his glowing eyes.

'A dream?' she thought.

"You're a heavenly dream my lord…" She muttered.

Sesshomaru's eyes widened, 'she thinks i'm a dream, how many dreams has she had of me to be this calm.'

Rin reached out her hand to touch him and he flinched slightly at the contact. She slid her hand to his shoulder and used it to pull herself into a sitting position. Rin lopped her other hand around his neck and pulled herself against him in a side hug, her face barred into his neck.

Sesshomaru's eyes grew wide as his heart pounded and blood rushed faster than before. He felt her breasts pressed against his chest and she smelt of lavender honey.

"I wish you were truly here my lord" She whispered against his neck. Her warm breath on his neck sent shivers down his spine as his eyes turned red.

Sesshomaru clasped his hand around her waist and pulled her closer to him. Rin felt his claws and his heavy breathing by her neck. Gently he ran his fangs against the skin of her neck and Rin gasped at the contact but didn't pull away.

Something sweet invaded his senses, the smell of fresh due in the morning. Sesshomaru swirled his tongue over her neck and felt her heartbeat quicken at the contact. A whine left her lips as her grip tightened on him. Sesshomaru stopped abruptly.

'What am I doing?' he thought.

The demon Lord closed his tightly and froze up. He stayed there for a while to calm his yokai before he did something unrecoverable…irreversible.

Minutes passed and once he opened his eyes again, he noticed her grip had loosened on him. The human had fallen asleep in his arms. Slowly he lowered her down on the mat and once her head touched the pillow, her arms tighten around his neck.

"Ses-shomaru." Rin muttered quietly. If it wasn't for his hearing, he would've missed it.

Sesshomaru waited until her grip loosened again and gently pulled them from his neck and laid her arms next to her.

Within seconds he was gone.
