A Slave's Forbidden Light.

Inuyasha walked through the hall, ignoring curious looks directed at both him and his concubine. Kagome could not say the same, her cheeks a dull red from a few suggestive leers. The strange demons, servants and visiting nobles alike were definitely not shy in their appreciation of her body. They leered, bending over to get a better view of some parts.

Inuyasha entered the kitchen, Kagome at his heels. He sat on a comfortable, plush chair with a smirk adorning his face. "Make me breakfast, wench." He commanded with a lazy flick of his hand. He relaxed into a chair, ready to enjoy her attempts at not burning food.

Kagome nodded, gulping silently and looking around the kitchen. The last time she had cooked, had been when she lived with her two sisters. She began taking out ingredients for the dish she best remembered. Out of a cupboard she took a pot, filling it with water. She hung it over a fire to boil. Inuyasha closed his eyes, pretending to doze off lazily, but watching through slitted eyes. He wanted to see her cook. Even if it did seem that she actually knew what she was doing.

After the water boiled, Kagome slipped the ingredients she had been preparing into the pot. She hovered near it for a few minutes, and then picked up a cloth, putting it over a hand. Protected buy the cloth, she picked up the pot and set it before Inuyasha. Scurrying towards another cabinet, she got out chopsticks and a bowl. She poured some of her dish into the bowl and set it and chopsticks directly in front of Inuyasha, watching him anxiously.

Inuyasha sniffed the bowl gingerly, then his golden eyes brightened. He eagerly slurped down the noodles hungrily. Kagome watched him with a hint of a pleased smile. "I trust you are pleased, sir?" She asked softly, lowering her gaze to the floor again. He likes it! She thought joyfully.

Inuyasha merely grunted, filling his bowl again. "What's this called?" he demanded around a mouthful of this heavenly meal. He loved it, but was certainly not going to let her know that. It wouldn't do to let her get a big ego. He wondered where she learned this recipe…

"Ramen, Lord Inuyasha." Kagome informed him meekly. She smiled to herself at the enthusiasm in his eating. He ate like there was a wild animal after him, intent on eating his food. The pot was soon empty and Inuyasha was the possessor of a very happy tummy.

"Inuyasha," Said the tall, imposing figure that had just stepped into the doorway. Inuyasha sat up straighter and motioned to Kagome to kneel. She did, lowering herself to her knees on the wooden floor. Who was this? She hadn't gotten near a good enough look.

"Good morning Father." Inuyasha said politely. Inu No Taisho acknowledged Kagome with a nod of his head. This simple action shocked both Kagome and Inuyasha. Inuyasha was shocked that his father had even noticed a mere whore of a concubine. Kagome was shocked that she was actually in the Lord of her land's presence and that he noticed her. Then the great lord frowned.

"Inuyasha, you did not mark her, and you did not sleep with her. Why?" he asked, or rather, demanded sternly. His expression was stern and foreboding. He did not look happy with the fact his son had not used the gift that had been forced upon him.

Kagome's eyes widened and she gulped. This did not bode well for her. Inuyasha stiffened. "I did not have time, Father. She was filthy and fell asleep soon." He informed the older demon coldly. His sire coldly, his arms crossed defensively in front of him.

"I want this resolved Inuyasha. You will mate with her, and it will be today!" Inu No Taisho yelled angrily. His eyes flashed, and his hand was in a fist. He was obviously very angry, his hackles bared. A growl lodged itself in his throat.

"Yes Father." Inuyasha conceded, lowering his head. "But why? Why is this so important to you? Why do you care?" He inquired, still with a touch of deference. He was dead curious. What the hell was so special about her? Or about him mating with her?

"That is none of your business Inuyasha. Now, I expect this to be tended to by tomorrow." The now composed Lord instructed coldly and firmly. "This is more important than both of you realize, and I expect you to listen to me." Well, Inuyasha didn't really think he would really be told anything.

They both nodded and Inu No Taisho swept regally out of the room. They looked at each other, united in their confusion. Then Kagome remembered her place, lowering her head with an almost silent squeak. Inuyasha coughed awkwardly.

The moment was pungeount with tension and awkwardness. That was disrupted when two person's poofed out of nowhere. Smoke billowed out from them. Then, in two high-pitched, squeaky voices, they cried together "Lord Inuyasha! Lord Inuyasha! Come with us Sir Mutt! We need your help, half-breed!"
