Chapter 9(A Mate and an Old Friend)
Olivia woke up wrapped in something warm and furry. She stretched and ran her fingers through the soft hair that supported her head. She looked up when she received a soft purr. Sesshomaru sat sleeping with his back against a tree. He had his one arm wrapped around her along with his tail.
Olivia smiled mischievously and began stroking his fur. She held back a giggle as she listened to the soft purr continuously emitted from his throat. She reached out with her other hand and began pulling her fingers through his soft hair. She moved her hand up until she could stroke the purple demon marks that adorned his face. Sesshomaru's eyes popped opened and he grabbed her hand. She looked into his amber eyes and caught a small flicker of emotion. Pulling her against his chest he nuzzled her neck and breathed in her scent. He ran his tongue over the vein on her neck selecting a spot to place his mark.
"Do you consent to being my mate?" Olivia's cocked her head to the side and thought a minute before answering his question.
"Yes. I will."
Sesshomaru bared his fangs and sank his teeth into her exposed flesh injecting some of his poison. Olivia whined and tried to pull away. Sesshomaru held her tightly and began licking her wound clean. She sank into him shivering as the poison took it's effects. Sesshomaru held her in his arms and kissed her forehead.
"Sorry for the inconvenience but you won't be able to do very much for about a day. I will carry you." He lifted her up and began going back towards the camp.
Half way back to the camp, Olivia demanded to me put down so she could walk.
"Put me down Shomaru! I feel perfectly find and I can walk." She insisted. Sesshomaru looked at her before dropping her unceremoniously to the ground.
"Owww! I said put me down, not drop me!" She glared at him before standing up. Sesshomaru smirked at her before turning and walking ahead. This girl was stronger than he expected. Any other human would have been out of commission for about a week. He had anticipated her ability to heal faster than average but he didn't think that she would recover from the mark for at least a day.
Sesshomaru stuck his nose in the air and sniffed. He smelled a strong demonic aura moving fast towards them.
"Shomaru, something's coming." She turned towards the woods and narrowed her eyes.
From out of the woods appeared a tall dark skinned demon wearing a green hat with a matching vest and a pair of tan pants and brown shoes. He wore the Mask of Majuro along with the Dark Sword.
" Robert? Hey, what are you doing here?" Olivia smiled at her friend. She knew he was a demon but she was not aware of the fact that he was as old as Shomaru.
The demon turned and looked at her narrowing his eyes.
"My name is not Robert it is Link. Who are you?" He eyed the mark on her neck and the demon that stood behind her with his eyes narrowed.
"I'm sorry, I forgot again. You don't know me yet but you will. What are you doing out here?" She walked up to him smiling.
"I am looking for a demon named Naraku. What do you mean when you say I don't know you yet?" He raised his eyebrow.
"I am from the future and in the future you and I are best friends. We hangout with each other all he time."
"You're from the future? Do you know of a girl named Zelda?" He turned and looked at her with interest.
"No. You girl friends' name is Tetra though. She's about my height with blond hair and blue eyes, has an infatuation with larceny, and is way into mystic time travel stuff."
Link smiled and started laughing.
"Sounds like Zelda. What are you doing here?"
"I'm going with Shomaru. Want to come?"
"Okay. I need to find Naraku and I'm guessing so do you."
"Yeah!" Olivia wrapped her arms around him and hugged him. Sesshomaru growled and narrowed his eyes at Link. Link pulled away and smiled at her. Sesshomaru wrapped his arms around Olivia's waist and held her possessively.
"Shomaru! Let me go! I can't walk with you holding me that tight." She pulled away from him and began walking ahead of him mumbling about unneeded jealously.
