Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha

Kagome sat, her back against the wall, lightly dozing when the Inulord walked into the home. He eyed her suspiciously, thinking back to his conversation with his beast. While true, he shared no love for humans; he could not help but have a slight feeling of carnal lust that enveloped him as he took in Kagome's form. The miko garbs she was wearing had been torn in revealing places, and had it not been for the wrap around her chest, he would've had a clear view of her pert breasts. Her legs were slightly sprawled out beneath her, allowing him to catch a glimpse of her high thighs. She looked peaceful in her sleep. A peace he was almost tempted to allow her to remain. However, he was a man of his word and told her four hours. "Miko, you will rise for this Sesshomaru."

Kagome woke with a start, quickly sprawling out her aura in her grogginess as an attempt to defend herself. "Miko you will stop this nonsense." She looked up at Sesshomaru and smiled, "Oh gawd! You scared me!"

Sesshomaru growled; she had all right to be scared. "Hn, it would seem. Are you prepared to repay this Sesshomaru?" Kagome stood straight before bowing low, "Lord Sesshomaru, you must understand that I am a miko of my word, however, I am just that, a humble miko. I have no true means of funds available at my disposal for this land that I have unjustly soiled, this land that I have… stolen from you. I request that you look favorably upon me, if not for anything, but for the past alliance we once shared." She stood again, looking into his cold face for confirmation. He offered none, so she continued, "While I can offer no monetary compensation for this land, I can offer other services that can be utilized to assist you with the patrol of the western lands."

Again she stopped, but instead of any look of understanding or confirmation on her terms, she was struck with his cool, calculated stare. "Miko, while you are of great power, that alone will not suffice in regards to the cost of this land. While you may think you've only soiled an acre or two, the surrounding 5 miles of this property are no longer sellable." Kagome's eyes widened in fear. "Wha… what do you mean?" "By burning a miko, and honoring her with a holy funeral, you have caused a holy impression to be set upon this land. This causes those of demonic decent to feel unnecessary waves of pressure, varying from a slight pressure, to that of painful magnitude. This will continue for the next 25-50 years, depending on the peak strength of the miko who passed. The estimation from this Sesshomaru seems as if this impression will most likely last closer to the 50 years." Kagome gulped, and then sunk. Her own mortality began to sink in. She was going to die. All she worked for, all she was, was going to end here. At the hands of a man who thought her no better than the dirt upon her feet. Tears began to gush forth in waves as she began to heave uncontrollably. "I cannot…. I cannot… I can't die… die… here…"

Sesshomaru smirked. "Miko, this Sesshomaru has considered multiple contracts that can prevent your death, however, due to the size and price of this land, only one will effectively make this transgression null in void." Kagome quickly grabbed his robes, pulling slightly, she did not want to die, and would give all she could to prevent it. While she may have seemed indifferent earlier regarding her mortality, now her sense of self-preservation was kicking it. "What must I do?"

He looked her up and down, allowing the slightest hint of red to begin engulfing his eye. "In this contract miko, let us begin by what you will immediately gain. You shall, since this land is unsellable, purchase it in it's entirety from this Sesshomaru. It shall be your land for all time. Now, there is more, but that is for later. Now what you will give…" He paused. She looked at him again, tears in her eyes, "What? What must I give? What can I offer?" Again, a deadly smirk allowed itself to form on his lips. "Yourself."

At this Kagome fell back. "Myself?" "Hn, Yes miko." She was confused for a moment before her brain connected with the implications of what he had demanded as payment. "My… my… virginity?" He did not answer her. It was a question which required none. He allowed her to mull the demand over, but it did not matter. This was not up for discussion. He was going to take her, and the matter was no longer debatable.

"But… but I can't!" Once again Kagome found her voice. "Miko, this matter is non-negotiable. You requested to be pardoned from death, and this is the only way. Now, remove your garments. Or this Sesshomaru shall do it for you." Kagome struggled to stand and fell back into the wall. "No! I can't allow you to take that! I… I…" she stammered again. "Like this Sesshomaru said miko, it is non-negotiable." He dropped his armor nonchalantly and moved closer. "Now do as I say woman, or I shall do it for you." Kagome quickly noticed his change from third person to the first, and as an attempt to stop him momentarily. "What happened to 'this Sesshomaru'?" She blurted. Sesshomaru placed his hand behind her on the wall, placing his face inches from her. "Something of this… intimacy requires a personal touch. Does one not agree?"

Kagome felt his breath on her as he moved and licked the side of neck, sending unwanted vibrations through her body. "Sesshomaru no! I don't want this!" She tried to protest, pushing her palms against his chest in a pitiful attempt to make him stop. He continued, however, and began to suckle against her skin, and his hands roamed around her body. Again, she pushed, but this time harder, "I said No! No means no!"

Sesshomaru quickly grabbed both her hands in his own and moved them atop of Kagomes head before growling as he spoke, "You have made your bed miko, it is time to lie in it." He brought his mouth to hers in an attempt to kiss her, but was met with the side of her face as she moved it. Tears began to flow unconsciously as she spoke, "I will fight you. I will not be raped willingly." Sesshomaru laughed as he roughly cupped her mound, "I wouldn't wish to have a bitch like you willingly submit."

"Are you happy with the thought of raping me?" She whispered as his hands found the inside of her robes, and began to tease her bundle of nerves. She bucked unconsciously as he flicked her nub, sending unwanted waves of pleasure through her body. "Miko, you speak as if I have no right to rape you. I do not know where you come from, but I have every right to force you to become a slave for doing what you have done. You are a mere woman. You have no rights." Kagome heaved uncontrollably then. It was one thing to feel like you had no say in your body, but to be in this situation, and to have to it perfectly acceptable in this time was another.

She could feel her body becoming hot and wet, and couldn't help the small moan that left her throat. This was not how she envisioned her first time. She never imagined rape to happen to her. It was her fault she did not realize this, however. A woman was nothing more than property in this time period, and rape was widely accepted. More tears fell as she felt helpless. She had to get away. She had to run.

Sesshomaru's hands felt everywhere at once, and at the same time, never in the same place twice. Every inch, every caress, every touch felt new and insanely amazing. She was ashamed of herself. For one being raped, she gave the impression she enjoyed what was being done. Every few seconds a moan would escape, and she could feel the wetness dripping down her thighs, puddling onto the floor. She could even smell her sex in the air. This was embarrassing, this was shameful, and this was rape.

Sesshomaru allowed his beast to take over, feeling the rush of combined senses. He felt her fear, her shame, and her excitement. This was going to be an amazing rut. He could feel the first drips of precum as his dick hardened and rubbed against his robes. He wanted to be inside of her so badly, but also wanted to force her to submit. She would beg for him. His fingers played in the curls of her lady's grass and a finger probed the entrance. She was dripping wet. How could she deny him? He slipped a finger inside and heard her moan into his chest. He was going to tease her as he brought the finger out and brought it to his lips.

She felt his finger, at first probing, and then finally in her. She had to go. She had to leave. She was not going to give in this easily. She focused her power and as soon as his finger left her flower she unleashed it upon him. He was thrown back a few feet and was left confused. She didn't look back as she ran out the door and into the forest.

Kagome was running. Never before was she running like this. Her heart was beating so hard she could feel it in her head, thump, thump, thump. Her chest heaved uncontrollably as she tried to breath in the harsh cold air in quick, short gulps. "This is not happening!" She thought. Her side had already begun painfully throbbing from the unexpected sprint she was performing, but she needed to keep going. She had to keep going. She knew the moment she stopped to catch her breath that it would be too late. He would have her.

She knew now that he could have her if he so chose, but the fact that he wasn't closing the distant between them was terrifyingly comforting. It was a sign that maybe he was letting her go; maybe she would make it to safety. She seemed to be getting a second pump of adrenaline as she thought this. "I might be safe!"As she ran past the trees she stopped only to catch her breath momentarily. She dared to look behind herself to see if the inu-demon there. A sigh of relief filled her as she saw that she was not being trailed. Unconsciously tears began to flow down her face, happy that she was indeed no longer being hunted.

Sesshomaru stood in the doorway, watching her run. She did not hurt him, but she did surprise him with her explosion of power. He debated then, for a moment, whether or not to pursue her. No, he had to. She had no right to run from him, however, it would only intensify the moment when he entered her and she submitted to him. At this thought, he smirked. "This woman will rue the day she entered my land."

Kagome continued running even though her lungs and side began to burn painfully. Sobs began erupting from her mouth, causing uneven breaths, which eventually forced her to stop and lean forcefully onto a tree. She had no idea what she had gotten herself into with the mighty Lord of the West, and looking back now, wasn't sure if she really witnessed what occurred with him. He went from the killing perfection of a demon lord, to a lustful, horny, and sexual man who's only goal was to get in her pants. True, she had wanted to learn the fine arts of sex for a number of years, but imagined after the loss of Inuyasha she would never feel a man's touch, nor the feeling of pure orgasmic bliss other than the one she was able to offer herself. However, regardless of the obvious arousal the Inudemon created, she did not want to lose her virginity to a man who hated her, and any potential children that could arise from the "payment" that was required. She would fight long and hard before submitting, even though she might not last long against the Lord.

Sesshomaru watched her as she leaned against the old tree. Her chest heaved heavy against the cold wind and her cheeks were strained red with her tears. "She will fight you with every ounce her body has.""It is to be expected." He watched as she gathered herself and continued forward, quickly losing momentum and speed as she attempted to maneuver herself through the knee deep snow.

Within a half hour of the spectacle he noticed her finally halt and lean against another tree, this time slumping to the ground and heaving heavily. Her hair clung to her cherry red face, and her fingers dug themselves deep into her underarms, trying desperately to make herself warm. Within moments exhaustion took her, and Sesshomaru found his opportunity. He walked up to her, keeping track of her breathing to ensure she would remain asleep. Her teeth chattered uncontrollably, but seemed to unfaze her sleeping form. Grabbing her and cradling her like a child her walked back towards the home of the dead miko. Satisfied that she was warming he allowed a small growl exit his throat.

In half the time it took Kagome to reach the tree in which she fallen, exhausted, Sesshomaru had returned her to the home and started a fire. He placed some bedding he found in the room down, and gently placed the young miko upon it. "Hn." "She is cold my lord. Perhaps it is best to warm her bones." Sesshomaru allowed himself to snort, "Have you no intuition? This Sesshomaru had already taken that into account beast." And with that Sesshomaru knelt down and began removing her cold, wet robes, along with her wrappings. He then removed his own clothing before laying down and pulling the young woman to his chest and then spooning her. As moko-moko wrapped itself around them Sesshomaru allowed himself to breathe deep the scent of Kagome's purity, and with one final growl, allowed himself to fall into a blissful sleep.
