Experience Gained

Kagome tried to escape the moment she felt something warm and wet against her most private of areas, but her attempt was futile. She fell backwards into her bed and used her arms to hoist herself back up, but it didn't seem to matter. Sesshoumaru's claws kept a firm grip on her thighs as his head remained between her legs.

"Stop!" she begged him feeling quite violated.

When Kagome thought of her wedding night she knew Sesshoumaru would be inside of her, but she didn't think it'd be in this fashion. Her heart continued to thump in her chest as she took in that raw pleasurable feeling of his tongue flicking against her pleasure bud. It seemed no matter how much she squirmed he wasn't going to stop so all she could do was get lost in the surge of want that befell her.

Sesshoumaru had no intention of stopping. He never thought he'd want to spend time pleasing her versus himself, but since he was unable to mate with her that night he planned on enjoying every bit of her that he could. Tasting her was a good way to begin. He enjoyed her odor and how it grew it upon stimulation and found her juices to be quite delectable. Those factors, however, didn't compare to the sounds that came out of the girl as she learned to enjoy herself.

What exactly was it about his new bride that had him craving her? This little exercise didn't involve her blood, so why was he so invested? Why was he finding himself taking in her beauty and allowing it to blind him from her irritating flaws? Perhaps it was the expressions on her face when she experienced something different than what she was use to or the sounds of satisfaction she was releasing.

No it was something deeper. Something that she'd tried to reference when she made it clear she was going to defy him by taking ownership of the cake she made. The girl's actions showed him she wanted to always be at war with him. She'd be his wife and follow through with her duties because she needed him and was settling for the situation she'd been put in, but she'd never fully bend to his will and concede her freedom.

It was becoming an irritation, because he was lusting for something that was becoming a bit difficult to get and that was the girl's gratitude. He had tried just moments ago telling her how fortunate she was having been married to such a well bred and powerful inuyoukai and all she gave him was silence on that matter as though none of those things that mattered. Stupid girl. How dare she thank him for meaningless things such as tulips and giving that flower girl a coin when he could very much be offering her the world to which she just gave him indifference. If he couldn't have her gratitude he'd have her pleasure. Perhaps if he could teach her what he was offering her body he'd finally be one step closer to getting what he wanted for the time being.

"Sessh-" Kagome tried to blurt out his name as she was lost in the confusion of how her body felt every time his warm tongue lashed against her.

She was squirming and even went as so far as reaching back for the stuffed dog that he'd previously tossed away. Did she think making herself appear as a lost and confused little girl would protect her from him? She was not a girl anymore, he'd show her that.

Once she reached for it his claws traced up her side giving a gentle nudge forcing her further on to her bed and free from the dress that had been clinging to her ankles. She was also free from his mouth, but that'd only be momentarily.

Before Kagome could get off the bed he pinned her down by her wrists remaining above her before lowering his face only a few inches above her own. Close enough she could feel the warmth of his breath.

"You're delicious Kagome," he growled lowly admiring her naked body with only the snowflake necklace around her neck, "so calm yourself and let me enjoy."

"Please stop," the girl pleaded showing a bit of fear in her eyes, "I don't think it's right."

"Don't think it's right?" he rose an eyebrow, "your moans tell me otherwise Kagome. Relax and let me taste more."

The way he was speaking didn't seem to be helping matters at all he was noticing. She was acting as though he were talking in the literal sense and was actually going to eat her. He couldn't bring himself to understanding a woman when they acted like this. Her scent and noises told him she was being pleased but now she was saying she didn't see it that way.

"If we can't consummate the marriage or whatever it is we are suppose to be doing then just let me sleep," the words were rushed as her chest heaved up and down trying to catch her breath, "this and what happened with your fur just doesn't feel right. It doesn't do anything for you."

It didn't do anything for him? That was interesting and gave him some insight. Was she embarrassed to have so much attention put on to her and her sources of pleasure without giving anything in return? It seemed she really did have moments of shyness.

"Doesn't do anything for me?" before this point his voice had been quite cold but now he had toned it down and tried to speak as a lover, "you are mistaken Kagome and forcing me to once again repeat myself after already having done so several times today. It's becoming quite a nuisance. I enjoy your taste and want more. You've had your ceremony and your little party, but now it's my turn to start getting my piece in this."

His turn to get a piece? Kagome was trying to understand why her body was feeling the way it did when violated her, how her muscles could continue to tense as though it were preparing her body for something else, but she fought through it after finding his words offensive. Her life in the only home she'd ever known wasn't ideal, but because of him she was being taken away in exchange for him to use her blood. He already was getting his dues in this arrangement, so why did he have to rub it in that he was entitled to her body as well?

"Aren't you already taking enough from me?" Kagome almost hissed to distract from the fact she was trembling, "if we can't do this- whatever this is fully then we shouldn't bother. Forgive me Sesshoumaru, but I just don't understand."

Sesshoumaru couldn't help but wish she were doing something else with those lips rather than revealing her confusion out loud.

"What is there you do not understand?" Sesshoumaru's soft tone was quick to disappear, "I took you for a wife not anything less or anything more. I can do with your body as I please now even if you are not as satisfied as you should be."

Sesshoumaru turning cold to her when irritated no longer really affected her one way or the other since she was use to it by this point, "I guess I should have asked this before it got this far but why did you marry me? If it's really about my blood why not have just have InuYasha kidnap me? Did I become your wife just so you could legally obtain me without causing strife with my father? I just wonder if I'd be a fool to think our relationship will proceed as promised when there is no need for it now that you have me."

Once again she was distrustful of him? Sesshoumaru narrowed his eyes at Kagome to show his annoyance was at the limit. All he wanted to do was sample the goods he would soon be having and she had to default to questioning the nature of their relationship. Sesshoumaru thought about telling her that he was still a daiyoukai of his word and he'd fulfill every promise and obligation to her, but as he stated he was growing tired of repeating himself. He was unable to tell Kagome the full truth of how their relationship would unfold for he didn't want it overheard, but perhaps some new information would keep her at ease.

"What I will tell you remains between us," Sesshoumaru wasn't going to allow her body to relax as he used a single finger to apply pressure to her pleasure bud that was still peeking out at him, "and once you've heard my words it will be the last we speak of such things. It will be the last we speak of my brother, your father, and even that flower girl this night. After we speak we will think of nothing more than each other's bodies. You will comply with these wishes."

He didn't even ask her if she understood the terms of this arrangement. The shiver he caused down her spine as he stroked her growing and slick bud was enough.

"I always thought my father was a fool for believing in the words of seers and ancient prophecies," Sesshoumaru explained watching her close her eyes in response to his petting, "I believed in creating my own destiny instead of having it spelled out and laid in front of me but every fortune my father looked into came true. Everything from the power of his swords to his rule over Winter Spiral and even the way he died. I cannot look away from these prophecies if I wish to be continue the reign of my family. The last one father received said a dog will mount the world by laying claim to the last born of the first born. I am his heir and the last of the pure bred inuyoukai, and I shouldn't have to explain how you are involved in this."

Kagome tried to fight through that tense feeling shooting through her body with every light stroke the pad of his finger gifted her so she could understand his words. It was all because of a prophecy that he sought her hand in marriage? She didn't really believe in such things having come from a household where her father stated that those who were powerful could just create their own destinies, but it did answer some other questions she had that probably would have irritated him further if asked. A demon such as him had to be several hundred years old at least right? He was alive when her mother and other first borns were still around so why did he wait this long to lay claim to her rumored magical blood? She was suppose to help him take the world for himself?

"You-" she let out a gasp, "believe in that? That's why you chose me?"

"It does not matter to me if you are skeptical," his eyes were locked with hers the entire time as another one of his fingers wondered further past her moist lips, "if it is just a fool's wish than at least I'll preserve what little of your blood line remains. I'll take care of you from this evening forward, you should be grateful."

Grateful? Kagome was just now learning how badly he wanted her gratitude. Why? He got what he wanted why did he have to further toy with her feelings and force her to feed him what he wanted to hear? She wouldn't. Not unless she got something in exchange after all this was intended to be a partnership of mutual gains.

"You don't have to," she whined feeling his smallest finger go past her folds in and out creating friction.

"I must," he gave her a low growl before picking up the pace, "if the prophecy is real then you were born for me Kagome and with such stakes I cannot lose any piece of you including affection. You were nervous about this union because of your lack of experience were you not? Relax and let me teach you."

He wasn't talking cold to her or scaring her, he was just being his usual possessive self, but at least he was promising to help her along. She would trust him for now as it seemed her stubbornness wasn't helping anything. Maybe it'd be best to just stay calm until he actually did something offensive. She was lucky he was putting aside his anger from the cake incident, so maybe she didn't need to push her luck any further.

"Sesshoumaru," her voice was shaky as his finger thrusted deeper getting a feel for her, "when this becomes real will it hurt? Or will it be like this?"

Did Kagome think his manhood was the same as his finger? How naive was his little virgin? He was fine with just trying to show her the meaning of pleasure, but perhaps it was time to go further.

"It will hurt for a moment yes," he told her truthfully as he withdrew his touch, "but afterwards you'll forget about the pain. You'll know a new existence, a grand one. You'll crave me and the Mokomoko Kagome. This I promise you."

He removed pressure from her freeing her all the while expecting her to remain on her bed where he wanted her. He sniffed her glistening juices on his fingers before giving a quick lick.

"I already miss your taste but I'll have to wait," there was something sinister in his gaze, "unless you want to try?"

Kagome immediately shook her head before he could lower her claws towards her face.

"Suite yourself," he gave a minor shrug before using his claws to untie the waistband of his silks, "but it's your turn now."

Kagome nervously looked away with a blush on her face knowing what he was trying to reveal. Curiosity ate away from her, but despite her vulnerable position she was still trying to keep modesty alive.

"Look here Kagome," he ordered releasing his newest present for her.

"I-I" she was trying to find an excuse to just keep to herself, "can't we just-"

"No," he growled quickly capturing her wrist and bringing it over to him, "you'll get to know me and feel me. This is one of your principal duties as my wife. You wanted to be ready did you not? Let me help you."

Why did he have to say that he was helping her? He was only doing something to benefit his own perversions as well as slowly begin the process of sullying her. It seemed, however, that she did not have a choice in the matter as he tilted her gaze towards his exposed manhood. She was prepared to feel threatened, but once she was forced to look it was hard to not literally take in every inch of the scene before her. Peeking out of his silks was a few strands of white hair- no it couldn't even be considered hair since it wasn't as unkempt as hers. It laid flat as though it were fur, which made sense if the Sesshoumaru before her wasn't in his true form. His member, at first, was really no different than any other man's she'd accidently laid eyes on until it began to almost pulse before erecting.

"Hn," Sesshoumaru let out what almost sounded like an uncomfortable hiss as his hands left her face and traveled to the base of his cock, "it appears simply seeing you like this is enough. I say that for it is a rarity for I usually have to arouse myself to be with a bitch, however, I doubt you'll take the compliment. No matter what I do I will not get that gratitude will I Kagome?"

"I'm suppose to be happy that you're being so inappropriate?" she asked sounding irritated despite not looking away.

"I suppose not. It does not matter does it? It doesn't change your role in this. When I get hardened it is your duty to please me. You will not stop until I am satisfied. Do you understand? You're the only bitch I shall lie with Kagome, so don't disappoint me."

He was laying out rules for something she didn't believe she was ready for, so it was hard to be amused by this. This was also the second time he'd called her a bitch. Kagome didn't know if that word was less vulgar in his lands, but she wasn't use to being called such a word.

"I'm not a bitch," she put up a defense shifting lightly to create some distance, "and I'm suppose to be happy that all of this only falls on me? I'm not. What do I even get in exchange for taking care of you?"

It was a stupid thing to say. She was quite aware of that since it was her duty, but still she couldn't help but always put up a fight when someone tried to tell her what to do. She was just hoping Sesshoumaru could be forgiving to that nature. She wasn't amused by any of this, but she still trusted her new husband and didn't want to look unfavorably to his companionship this early on.

Sesshoumaru was not at all amused, but it didn't stop his member from stiffening further. Every time the girl thought it had grown to its full potential it kept growing. Before she could drown her virgin mind with fears he decided to share his own thoughts on the subject.

"You are a bitch," his growl was husky as his slender fingers grasped at the base of his cock before stroking it quite aggressively, "a bitch I want to use and mount. A bitch I want to fill with pups. One that lacks the experience required for a proper marriage bed but will soon learn. You're my bitch Kagome as well as my Queen and my chosen. That is where you sit in this pack."

There seemed to be a bit of a cultural barrier as Sesshoumaru wasn't using the term bitch in a negative way though it probably seemed that way with how he laid out his plans for her, but he was getting frustrated. This little game couldn't have much of a happy ending since he had no intention of claiming her within Naraku's walls, but the road to mild pleasure was continuing to be blocked by awkwardness. However, staring at her naked body wasn't making things any easier and it wasn't as though he could just turn off his arousal as they waited for a better moment. They had to play with the hand dealt.

"Kagome," he continued, "touch me."

"Touch you?" she was stalling and sounding naive.

Sesshoumaru just gave a nod. He didn't need to explain how or with what as she should have known what he meant. He wanted to feel her soft flesh against his most vulnerable part. It should have been a simple request, but still he was left waiting one second too long.

"I need to feel you," his voice revealed a lot of want before he swiftly used both hands to grasp at her hips and pull her small frame to him, "as for what you get in exchange shouldn't it be obvious?"

Before she could say anything he shoved two fingers deep within her in a very unexpected way and began to rub them together creating a friction that she just wasn't ready for. He clearly knew what he was doing, however, as she wasn't even given enough time to be upset before becoming soft to his touch. He was feeding a flame within her with every movement of his fingers trying to create an inferno to completely consume her.

Why was she becoming so moist and gifting him with those sounds he seemed to yearn for so much? Why couldn't she at least put up a futile fight against him? Kagome didn't know if it was alright for her to even enjoy this, but it was hard to ignore his knuckle grinding against her pleasure bud as his fingers continued to work at her.

"I won't give him the gratitude he wants for this wasn't my choice after all," was Kagome's last thought before her mind began to muddle, "but I do want this. I thought I just wanted someone to protect me, someone to save me, but this is alright. He won't hurt me. I have to believe him."

"I pay my debts," he moved her bangs away from her sweaty forehead before gazing in those brown eyes for a moment, "it's not difficult to do when I know what you want."

She shut her eyes as her muscles began to ache and cramp as though her body was preparing herself for something before he pressed his lips against hers sending sparks through her body. Every time she began to doubt her situation he'd do that, provide her with that warmth of security and want she needed to regain confidence in her new life.

"Now give me your touch," he commanded as he'd done his part in the exchange.

"I-I" as her body continued to tense it was hard to gain control of her speech, "I don't know what I'm doing though."

His golden eyes locked back on to her giving a flash of annoyance before softening up quite a bit after a few more moans were heard, "You wanted experience did you not? It is simply practice. Share your touch with your new Lord Kagome. Know your duty and master it. I will not be leaving you alone any time soon. How many times must you be told that before you understand? You are mine and this is your life now."

As she inched her left hand towards his swollen member she told herself it was because he had given her something in exchange, but in truth she also had desires of keeping him quiet. She was done being told the same thing over and over again. She just wanted it to stop and enjoy the moment as her body began to release.

It did feel quite stiff when she first grasped it quite carefully, but let out a frightened gasp as it twitched and pulsed against her flesh. She knew it was a sensitive area, so she tried her best to be cautious, but as Sesshoumaru got what he wanted his eyes closed and he seemed off in his own little world. Apparently she wasn't doing anything wrong then.

"I don't know if this is experience," she mumbled to herself knowing that simply touching him wasn't good enough as she almost began to pet it like a naive child.

Sesshoumaru seemed quite content, however, before desire continued to stir in him demanding more. His beast seemed to be insatiable when it came to his new bride. Simply getting her out of her comfort zone enough to willingly touch him and get use to his length should have been enough to let her have her practice without things getting too out of hand, but he was losing control.

"Your mouth," he growled lowly, "can you use your mouth?"

Her mouth? Kagome didn't know what to say that. She was actually expected to put part of him inside of her mouth where she could taste it? True he'd done the same to her, but still it felt different. What caught her the most off guard was the way he requested it. He didn't demand her to use her mouth and instead asked her politely. That was something new.

"Can I?" she asked both him and herself.

"Your lips," he snarled seeming to be controlled by his desires, "I want them used for something other than talking for once. You'll share them with me won't you?"

Kagome was definitely caught off guard by the way he worded his request. He sounded like a dying thirsty man begging her for water. Instead of giving in she returned to grasping his member and apparently was already learning from him the way she began move her wrist up and down slowly to give her a better position in these negotiations.

"Will I?" she decided to drag it the negotiation out as long as possible to see if she could be given something else in exchange.

"Can you?" he was once again asking and not demanding.

No he wasn't asking. From Kagome's point of view he was begging. Begging for her to do such an act and give him pleasure. Maybe all of this was just a power play to put her in her place, or maybe that was just how it all began and now it was something different. This whole time Kagome only saw things from her position and that she had to settle for and accept Sesshoumaru for a small bit of comfort, but what of him? Maybe it was possible he felt the same. Perhaps he also wanted an affection he didn't even know he had a need for until the possibility smacked him the face. Had he been lonely as well?

However, she wasn't left much room for anymore speculation as Sesshoumaru grew impatient while awaiting an answer. He had the realization that he was exposed, and in more ways than just one. He could see the gears turning in Kagome's head and she was discovering her power over him. She was no enemy, but he didn't like anyone knowing about his weaknesses and wants.

"Have your rest," he released a hiss.

Kagome rose an eyebrow, "My Lord?"

Sesshoumaru furrowed his eyebrows to tell her that using courtly terms after being so stubborn and combative against him this whole time did not humor him and wouldn't work. Her spell she was conjuring was broken and he'd let her know that without giving her any sort of victories.

"Release me and retire next to me for the night," Sesshoumaru ordered grasping her hands to pull away from his manhood before covering the stiffened sight back up with his silks, "there will be no excuses or fatigue for tomorrow. You'll settle your accounts and finish your packing before we depart. I wish to be away from this rotten kingdom before sundown. Not a moment later Kagome."

Her preparing herself to be shipped off was not something Kagome was looking forward to, especially now that she really had nothing to pack and saying goodbye to Sango would be a bitter affair. That sleep she'd been just saying she needed would bring her to that moment faster and she didn't like being pushed away by him in this way.

"Is that even alright?" she asked him still confused to why he was turning cold towards her, "you said it was my duty for you- you know to not be like that. Your silks won't really hide it will it? I- was already a failure with the ceremony and now I'm failing this aren't I?"

Sesshoumaru wouldn't look at her as he kept his back turned while further adjusting his clothing fighting the burning sensation he was left with in his lower region, "Failure? You'll always force me to repeat myself won't you Kagome? There is no failure in this partnership. You are not to blame for what your father did to your ceremony and as for this? It was merely just practice. If it went further I'm afraid I'd be the one failing you. You will not become a woman within these walls. This kingdom is unworthy of that."

Before Kagome could deny his defense of her she watched as he reached for the stuffed dog and placed it in her lap.

"Make no mistake," his voice carried a warning as he turned back towards her, "there will be no excuses or delays once you are in your new home. You are mine and you will be the mother of my pups and my pleasure, but for now have your rest."

Before he was forced to explain himself further he knew what he needed to give her. He still held on to memories as well as the scent of holding her the night before and the way she just rested against him feeling safe with the man she decided to have trust in. Sesshoumaru wanted to recreate that for her comfort as well as his own even if he would never admit it.

He wrapped his arms around her chest taking a grasp of her breast before pulling her against him and laying down for the evening.

"Not a woman yet," his voice was soft like silk as he whispered into her ear holding her close, "but soon you will. Here you're still a princess, but soon you'll be my Queen."

(End Chapter)

AN: It's been a while but work has been killing me I'm in the process of moving into a new place, and writing sex scenes (even fluff where nothing happens) is never as easy as I think it will be going in. This chapter is probably bad and I should feel bad.
