Okay, just to warn you: LEMON! If you don't like to read lemons, then don't read it. I'll mark the place where the lemon starts, so you get due warning!

Chapter 7: My Mate

Firstbreaklineofthechapter, feelfreetoignore…

Kagome, Sango, Kikyou, Usagi, and Lyn rose from the hot spring.

"Ne, Kagome-chan, nervous?" Sango asked.

"Actually, Sango-chan, I'm extremely nervous," Kagome answered.

"Why? You love him, don't you?" Kikyou asked.

"Yes, I do, but—" Kagome was cut off by Usagi.

Usagi began, "If you love him, then—"

"—all you have to do is show it," Lyn finished.

By this time, they had their robes on, and were walking down the halls, exploring.

"They are right, you know," a male voice intoned behind her.

Kagome turned. "Sesshoumaru! Don't scare me like that!"

Sesshoumaru smirked. "I'm sorry, watashi ai." He folded her into his arms. "Demo, they are still right, you know," he whispered into her ear.

Kagome blushed. "I know, Sesshoumaru-ai."

Sesshoumaru smiled, and then kissed her. "I'll see you at dinner later, ladies."

"Hai! Ja ne!" The trio chorused.

Kagome put down her chopsticks. "Minna-san, Sesshoumaru, I must excuse myself. I'll see you later, Sesshoumaru-ai."

Sesshoumaru nodded, and Kagome walked out.

Kikyou looked after her. "Hmm. I wonder what is bothering Kagome-chan."

Sesshoumaru looked at Kikyou. "What do you mean, Kikyou-san?"

"Kagome's aura kept shaking, almost… almost as if she were in pain," Kikyou finished.

"Why? Surely there is nothing here that would hurt her?" Miroku replied.

Sesshoumaru rose. "Excuse me, minna-san, I must go." He left.

Kagome walked down the halls. I still can hardly believe that Inu—that InuYasha is… is gone! She began crying, and Sesshoumaru arrived in time to see her collapse, her shoulders shaking. He could smell the salt from her tears.

"Kagome-chan, what's wrong?" Sesshoumaru rushed to her, cradled her in his arms. "What is it?"

"Sesshoumaru-ai!" Kagome buried her head in his shoulder, and sobbed. "I—I just can't believe InuYasha is… is… gone!" She began crying again.

Sesshoumaru looked at the woman crying in his arms, and carried her to his bedroom.

When Sesshoumaru entered his bedroom, he sat down in his favourite chair, and then looked at Kagome. "You still miss him, don't you, Kagome-chan?"

Kagome nodded. "Even though he hurt me, he was still my best friend. At the time, he was the person I cared about most."

Sesshoumaru felt his heart go out to the young woman who had captured his heart so well, whose heart hurt so much. "Kagome-ai," and he tilted her head and kissed her with all the love he could muster. "I love you, Kagome-chan."

Kagome looked at him. "Sesshoumaru-chan," and she kissed him.

OOH, IT'S A LEMON! CAN YOU SQUEEZE IT? NO YOU CAN'T, IT'S MY LEMON!

Sesshoumaru felt his ardor begin to rise, and whispered to her, "Are you ready for this? Because if you'd rather wait, we can…"

Kagome looked at him, and replied, "I told you I would be your mate, didn't I? Well, I'm not going to postpone something we bother want."

Sesshoumaru smiled, then stood and carried her to his bed. A moment later, each was as naked as the day they were born.

Kagome looked up at Sesshoumaru, then stood up, and pulled him to her.

Sesshoumaru groaned, and lifting her, buried his head in her hair, close to the base of her neck. Setting her down on the bed, he whispered into her ear, "This may hurt a little, my love. After that, nothing but love and pleasure will you feel." Waiting until Kagome nodded, he settled between her legs, and buried his head in her hair at the base of her neck.

Kagome bit her lip, and Sesshoumaru thrust into her, biting her neck at the same time.

A minute later, the wound closed up, leaving a small mark on her neck. It was then that Sesshoumaru began pumping into her. He kept thrusting, harder and faster, until he heard and felt Kagome shudder in orgasm, and he orgasmed on the spot, pumping his seed into her womb.

Sesshoumaru and Kagome curled into a single ball on their bed, and went to sleep.
