In their rooms, she gathered a comb and settled behind him on the futon. "Don't worry, Koi," She whispered, "Whatever your decision, I will stand by your side. Take this time to consider the best choice." The comb slid through his silver hair. Three strokes and she felt him relax. The tension in the air eased.

His scent permeated the room, making her dizzy and soothed all at the same time. Intoxicating. She leaned forward, burying her nose in the silky strands. Her heart raced. She combed until the sun had long since gone from the sky and his hair cascaded around her.

Kagome sat the comb back in its place and ran her cool fingers over his tense shoulders. Hard knots eased. Muscles turned soft beneath the strong press of her fingers. He groaned. She breathed deeply, filling her lungs with the smell of her Mate, wholly unique and all its own. Completely Sesshomaru.

"Kagome." He whispered, taking her by the hand and pulling her forward, "You will support any decision?"

She kissed the tip of his nose, "Any."

Worry subdued. He closed his eyes and exhaled, letting the words escape, "Grandmother is infatuated with that creature."

"I know." Blue eyes gleamed.

He kissed her palm, staring into her as she felt his emotions swirl with her own. "Mother requires a close Pack, even if just a small one. She is not one to live in solitary."

Kagome settled into the space beside him, sliding her arms around her neck so she could get comfortable and still see his face. His eyes. "So, what have you decided?"

Groaning, he ran his fingers over his face and into his hair. "There is no decision that does not leave one concerned."

"Well," She grabbed his hand, holding it in her lap as she rubbed his palm with a slow circle of her thumb. "What is the least concerning choice."

He rubbed his stubbly chin, "This answer would rely on how you feel."

"I can't tell you if you don't ask." She grinned. They were finally getting somewhere.

He started with a kiss. Soft and slow. His eyes opened to catch her dazed and starry eyed. "It will be a large request."

"I don't mind." She closed her eyes and pulled him closer, recapturing his lips. Fingers sunk into his hair, cradling the back of his head as she gave into desire. Silver silken threads whispered over her arms. His scent worked her into terrible need all day long. If felt good to release. "Just, please, don't stop kissing me." She sighed as his hands moved over her sides. Mewling. Chills dotted her flesh.

Canines grazed over her neck. Lips plucked over her skin. Fingers worked the tie of her obi. He rolled his tongue against her pulse until she gasped. "There is room," He kissed her jaw, pulling back a fraction to look into her stunning eyes. Her face serene. Perfectly trusting. Perfectly content. He pushed her down against the plush futon and her heart rate sped up. "We have room in our home for her."

Kagome licked her lips, "There is. Why does her living there concern you?"

"Meddling." Nails scraped down his chest, and he hissed, catching her hands over her head and holding them there. "She will be there... Every day."

"Oh." He nipped her lip. His cold nose brushed over her cheek and along her jaw. Nuzzling. Sniffing. She swallowed hard. "I think it will be fine, Sesshomaru."

"Do you?"

His mouth worked over her skin, driving her mad with every pluck of his lips. "Yeah." Hot wet kisses. "It might..." She hissed, "Be a good...ah... thing," Her yukata fell away. Cool air teasing her breasts. Her already hard nipples became toys for lips and fingers. She groaned, "When we have kids...you...ah, you know." He let go of her hands, running his claws down her arms and breasts.

Moving lower. Anticipation had her writhing. Trembling. Stubble tickled her stomach. And lower...

The sheet clenched in her white knuckles as his tongue swiped across her inner thigh. Hot breath warmed her skin. Toying. He forced her hips down, keeping her in place as he teased her. One leg hung over his shoulder. The other successfully pinned. She dug her heel into his back.

His tongue plunged deeper, tasting wet heat. High pitched moans drove him further. Nipping the sensitive flesh. She cried out. Purring against her small clit, he relished in the way she tasted. The scent of her arousal engulfed him, washed through him. He buried his face between her legs and listened to her scream. Panting breaths with every flick of his tongue. Breasts heaving intandem with his suckling.

Nails scraped against his scalp.

Her head went back. Spine off the bed. He released her hips and grinned when her hand held him closer against her delicious cunt.

Danger filled his amber eyes, red swirling as he climbed up her body. Licking his lips. She trembled. His tongue grazed the column of her neck. Claws carefully scratching her sides. Kagome gasped as his cock ground against her pulsing clit. Aftershocks sizzled. Teeth nipped at her neck. She whimpered, tugging up on his hair until his lips landed on her own. "Please... inside...now." She begged.

The sole of her foot flattened against his chest as he thrusted deep inside. "Ahh." She hissed. Her knee pressed hard into her breast as he filled her completely. Heat ran through her veins. Her other leg snaked around his hip, keeping him close.

Tight. He growled against her throat, licking creamy skin as her walls relaxed around his cock. Her muscles milked him, pulling him in and pushing him out in slow contractions. He groaned, shifting.

"Ah..." Her nails bled his shoulders, "Yes. Yes. There. Harder." Her head tossed back against the futon, wild black hair spilled over the white bedding in an inky pool.

Every thrust brought thrills. Electric. Igniting. He cradled her back and he gave her exactly what she asked for. She scratched down his arms, catching the sheets in fists.

His erection pulsed inside her vagina, and she knew ecstacy would come as soon as he did. There was something about the thought of him filling her up with semen that made her all the more horny. Every touch became all the more powerful. Every stroke of his cock so deep inside, in that perfect toe curling spot, drove her closer and closer.

Another pulse. Canines sank into her Mating mark with a growl. His name cried from her lips. Hot thick fluid rushed over her inner nerves, spilling inside as he plunged deeper and deeper. She trembled. Legs shaking as they went lax.

Her eyes watered, tears dripping down the sides of her face. The intensity swelled in her chest and outward. Vagina pulsing. Aftershocks.

He pulled out and she gasped. Even the air made her squirm. She closed her legs and let him cradle her to his chest, tugging the sheet up over their naked bodies.

"Sleep."

Yawning, she didn't care but to comply. "I love you." She murmured against his chest. Lashes fluttering closed.

His head fell back with a contented sigh. Her rarely said words sung in his ears. Claws played in her wavy hair, sliding up and down her spine. "This Sesshomaru would be lonely without you at my side, Koi."

"I know." She grinned against his chest, pressing a soft kiss above his heart. "Go to sleep. We can talk more tomorrow."
