Hello dear readers. I finally got to write out my 'Kohaku gets super jealous over Izumi', chapter that has been in my head for forever I just didn't know how to approach it.
I had to break it up because it was very long, the set up is today and the smut is tomorrow.
Enjoy!
Kiyoshi was preparing to take his leave in a few days time. Iku fussed over her eldest while Riku insisted she leave him alone seeing as he is grown.
Shushing her mate or flat out ignoring him she instructed Sana on what to send him back to the east with and whom to give it to. Gladly the young woman made Kiyosho a travel bag full of herbs and infusions that Iku had made with what she found in the west.
"Thank you for staying with us Kiyoshi. I hope you will visit us again." Rin said happily. The day was more mild than what was expected for the time of year feeling more like spring than winter.
Rin and Izumi sat on the deck with their mates on their respective sides.
"My lords and ladies; your hospitality and generosity is much appreciated by this one. I look forward to meeting again." Bowing he made ready to leave.
"Kiyoshi, I have to say, thank you for looking out for me when I was younger. Recently I have come to learn some…things and I do not know how aware you were of certain circumstances…" Izumi faltered in her words as she tried to convey her emotions into words.
"Lady Izumi, if you permit me to speak." He requested interrupting her.
"Go ahead." She nodded.
"It was always my honor, duty, and privilege to be by your side. If circumstances had been different you and I would have been raised as pack mates by our mothers. Being posted as your guard finally gave me an opportunity to be near you in the way Lady Mizuki wished." Kiyoshi explained.
"If ever you need me my lady, I will come."
"Thank you Kiyoshi." Izumi smiled widely in appreciation. "For everything."
"You are most welcome. Farewell until then."
"Good journey." Izumi bid him. With Kiyoshi disappearing past the tree line Kohaku stood. Looking up at him he seemed to stare into the wooded area. "Kohaku?"
"Come with me for a walk." He said offering her his hand to stand.
"Of course mate." With his assistance she stood and they went on their way. Rin smiled happily looking to her husband taking in his somewhat amused expression.
"What is so funny my lord?" She wondered.
"Kohaku is jealous."
"Jealous? Jealous of what?"
"The other male."
"Kiyoshi?" Staring at the spot where he had stood she furrowed her brow. "But why?"
"Aside from the fact that Izumi smiled at him after being melancholy for days, he offered his protection specifically to her."
"Oh, no. Neither of them meant it any type of way other than in a sibling type of bond." Rin pouted. "It was a very touching moment."
Taking in the glance Sesshomaru gave her she matched it. "You are both far too sensitive Lord Sesshomaru." She whispered out.
Kohaku led Izumi to the small outcropping of rock they had visited before earlier in the year. She had wrapped her arms around one of his and didn't think much of it when he let her go.
Walking slightly ahead of him she heard from behind her the sound of his chain clinking. Turning around to question him she found herself suddenly entangled within it unable to break free.
"Kohaku?" She asked curiously. He adjusted the chain to pin her arms closer to her body as he shortened the lead. He looked upset.
"You smiled at the guard." He accused.
"Kiyoshi, well yes…"
"You haven't smiled or anything of the like in days no matter what I have said or done." He stated. "But you smiled at another man."
Taking a long breath and exhaling slowly Izumi understood what was happening. Kohaku was jealous. She had never experienced his jealousy before and was interested to see what form it would take.
"Forgive me mate." Lowering her gaze somewhat. "It was never my intention to. The last few days have been very trying for me and I felt a sense of peace with the guards words."
Pulling the chain he drew her closer to him. Lifting her chin to look at him he searched her eyes for a moment before seizing her lips with his in a hard kiss.
"You're mine." He whispered huskily. "As long as I am breathing no other man will have you."
"I want no other. Only you." She assured. "My sweet boy, my perfect love…no one else could ever compare to you."
Kohaku ran his hand along her kimono pushing it open on her chest to run his fingers against the mark he gave her. Leaning down to kiss at the spot she put her head back slightly allowing her eyes to flutter close.
Feeling his tongue lick at the scar she let out a small whimper. "Oh Kohaku."
"You are everything to me Izumi. I won't let you go, not ever." He murmured wrapping his arms around her waist. Fidgeting in her bonds and his grasp made him tighten the chain.
"Mate, rut me." She begged feeling her muscles clench in her stomach. "I need you."
"Oh? How do I know that you are not thinking of Kiyoshi, that that is what is making you excited?" He questioned.
"No. You, it's you. Everything, this game…your scent…you. All of you. Please, give me all of you." Izumi whined.
"You know, for some time now, you have become that troublesome demon I always knew you to be. You need to be taught a lesson on how to behave." Kohaku teased out moving his lips up to graze her cheek.
"Yes." She agreed in near pain from arousal. Leading her still bound to the under cropping of rock he secured his chain to a part that could be hooked onto the stone above their heads.
Detaching the kusurigama from the chain he placed it down. Stringing Izumis arms and hands up to hold her in place he took a step back smirking at the scene.
"I'll be back." Kohaku said.
"Wait, you're going to leave me here." She rattled the chains as she gripped it glancing up at where he had secured it. "Kohaku!"
"No sense in trying to escape. That metal is three times forged with the ashes and bones of slain demons. Needless to say, it is very strong." Kohaku said. "I won't be long."
"Oh really?" Izumi fumed. "Well, don't let me keep you. Simply take your time in getting back to your pregnant, trapped mate."
"Alright." Walking off he heard her howl in rage. Moving out of her sight he went to the small stream he knew was nearby to fill his canteen.
"Chief." Nagi greeted coming upon him as he knelt down.
"Hey, Nagi." He smiled and gave a small wave. "Do me a favor and run up the hill aways, check on Izumi for me."
"Sure thing Chief." Jogging in the direction Kohaku indicated he heard an angry demon before he laid eyes on her. As he approached he saw Izumis attention snap to him in a very fast, almost eery way.
"Are you…good Izu?" He asked trying to keep his mirth down.
"Do I look 'good' Nagi?!" She snarled out. "Release me."
"I'm not entirely sure what is going on here but I think I will pass on that." He replied slowly.
"I order you to release me!" She growled.
"I'm going to go check with the Chief…I won't lie I am a little afraid to let you go." Seeing her eyes narrow down to slits she took on a predatory glare. "For exactly that reason. Sorry Lady Izumi."
Bowing quickly he backed off slowly not turning his back to her. Meeting back up with Kohaku he grit his teeth. "I don't know what you're doing with your wife man but she is beyond enraged."
"Good. Thank you for checking on her. You should probably leave the area and if you hear anything, I'm alright."
"Oh. Well, then…have fun and never get me involved in your weird sex games again." Nagi blinked a few times. "Right. I'm gonna go."
Hearing Kohaku laugh he felt embarrassed beyond belief as he quickly made a point to get away as fast as he could.
