He sat there staring at her as the aftermath of his sex faded. She continued to sob, albeit less labored than before. Pulling himself out of her with a disgusting plop he laid his body next to hers. Instinctively she pulled away, but he dragged her back, pushing her chest into his own. Wrapping his arms around her he breathed in the situation.
He, in a rare moment of rashness, took a mate. It wasn't anything uncommon, however. He'd known many a Lord and Lady who took a human mate, although it was usually due to a treaty and not an agreement. Their life expectancy could never match a true demons, so he'd known many that took several human mates over the years, especially in cases where it would benefit them, like receiving the support of a huge village or town, or military strength. Eventually they would form a bond with a demon and have full heirs, but treaties and allies are a must in life.
"Oh, Miko. The honor in which you have been bestowed is too great." Feeling her push against him he allowed her momentary freedom. "Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't realize your dick was that much of an honor." He snatched her face and pulled it towards him, "While that is an honor on its own. The honor I'm talking about it much greater." He tilted her head upwards, forcing her neck to be elongated. Tracing the moon scar that was now a beet red he spoke, "This is the honor in which I speak." "Get off of me Sess-"He cut her off, slapping her face. "You will speak to this Sesshomaru with respect, or you will be taught the proper manners for a lady of the court."
Tears brimming her eyes, she stared at him. "Pu…. Pu…. Please… Lord Sesshomaru…I… I…" She stopped. Her breath again had left her. "Do as you wish, Miko. This Sesshomaru has things to attend to in order to establish your place in his courts." She rolled away from him, clutching the sheet to her chest. Standing, she took one last glance and left. He eyed her suspiciously, wondering for a brief moment if she would indeed run. It needn't matter. He would catch her again. He heard her in the kitchen, drawing water from the indoor well. "Do you intend to bathe, Miko?" He asked more out of curiosity. "I owe you no explanation in what I do." She replied angrily, slamming whatever pot she was holding. Sighing he stood from the bed and wrapped his inner robe around him.
"As is your right, this Sesshomaru supposes." He replied, walking into the room. He eyed her as she stood wrapping her chest. Her wounds were healing at an accelerated rate, and he pondered briefly if it was because of the mating or simply her own ability. "What do you want?" she snapped, turning from him. "This Sesshomaru was curious about your injuries. They appeared quite dire earlier." She scoffed at him, "Like you gave a damn when you raped me." He was upon her quickly, pushing her against the wall. "I will say this only once more, Miko, this was not rape. If you say the word again, you will be punished, severely."
He pushed away from her and began to dress fully. "I have business to attend to prior to your involvement in the courts regarding property and that damned village. I will be back within the morrow. I would advise you to stay within the property for your own safety." "Are we on intimate terms now?" Kagome said sarcastically as she finished her bindings. "Ultimately, in private, we will be. This is, given what you are to me."
Watching him stand to leave she spoke, "I will not remain here to live out my days. I am a woman, and miko to a village away from here. This is my property and I can determine where I live. You have no say in that. Take me as you will, but you will not tame me. You will not break me. You will not tell me what I-""Kagome." He eyed her, "I will not force you to stay here, but I will have a say in where you stay. I will not put what is mine in harm's way, nor will I be denied access to what is mine." And with that he left.
She walked to the door, opening it to make sure he was gone. "Who in the hell does he think he is? Using my name? He doesn't know me. He doesn't know…" She considered for a moment to call him the rapist he was, but she was fearful. She did not want to bring his wrath upon her again. She did not want him invading her again. Tears began to fall, but all she could do was shake them out. "No. No. No more crying, Kagome. I will get through this. I will. I don't know how right now, but I will."
She put the pot of water over the fire, allowing it to come to a small boil. She pulled the pot off of the flames, allowing the pot to rest on the outskirts of the fire, rolling gently. She placed her inner robe in the water, adding a few bits of lavender. She pushed it back and forth, tear still stinging gently in her corners. She dug in the cabinets, pulling out the one sliver of soap that had been rendered from animal fat and put it in the water, allowing it to suds slightly. She wanted as much of Sesshomaru off of her.
She dipped the rag in the water and began wiping her body off. Every inch of her skin was on fire as she scrubbed and scrubbed. Tears continued to sting. "They don't make water hot enough for this!" She screamed as she slammed the rag in the bucket. She knew she was broken. She felt it. She did not know how she was going to convince him she wasn't, but she knew she had to try.
As the mid-morning sun shine through small home Kagome found herself on the edge of dozing. Her clothes had all been washed, her body and orifices as well. Her clothes hung upon the line she drew across the hut, air drying with the heat from the fire place. She removed her bandages as she walked towards the bedroom, gently touching the wounds that were almost healed. Her miko powers had grown significantly since the well closed. Her healing powers were no joke either, and in all honestly it was probably her best asset. She had come back from near death one too many times to count. She truly only lacked control. Had she better control, maybe she could've fought him off.
She shook her head. "Don't think that. It doesn't matter how much control you had, he is on another level entirely." She laid herself across the bed in the room. Ready for the sleep to envelope her. Sleep came quickly for the miko, and it wasn't until the late evening she found herself even rousing.
She sat up quickly, however, fearful that she slept passed her deadline from Sesshomaru. She did not want him to come and take advantage of her. Regardless of the "agreement" she had no intention of fulfilling any additional part of it. She walked quickly out of the room and into the greater area, see the clothes still on the line. She gingerly touched her outer robes, they were still lightly damp, and unfit for travel in the blistering cold, however, her inner robe was completely dry. She quickly wrapped her body, allowing the wounds to finish healing, and put the inner robe on.
Kagome sighed, a moment of content washing over her. She sat at the table, pulling out her food from her pack. She has some rice, bits of pheasant and some vegetables. She put the items in the pot and sat them on the fire to warm. She was beyond hungry. Pouring some sake from her pack she sighed as she brought the cup to her lips. Had this been other circumstances, she would've been happy to have inherited this home. It was certainly larger than her hut back home, and the indoor well was more than a good thing. One step closer to indoor plumbing really. Shippo rarely came home from the training, and Rin was nearing her 14th birthday. She would be marrying within the next year, much to Kagome's dismay, and her miko training was complete. She possessed purifying abilities on par with Kikyo, but as Kaete has already said, Kagome is the exception to the limits of the abilities. Rin is considered to the top miko in the region, outside of Kagome.
Kagome recalled a time he, Sesshomaru, stopped to check her progress, and was filled with pride at her ability to incinerate the demon he brought to test her.
Kagome stopped. She didn't' want to think of him. No. Not right now.
Slamming her cup down she glanced about the cabin. The cabin itself was in disarray, partly from the demoness earlier, and partly from her and the Lord of the West. She would need to clean it soon. She didn't think she could stomach the mess. Briefly, a piece of parchment caught her attention. It was sitting in the middle of the table, and how she did not see it previously, she did not know.
She grabbed it gingerly, and read the words: To my granddaughter
While she now knew, or at least interpreted in dreams, that she could be a descendent of the old Miko, she still felt uneasy about reading what could be the last words to Lady Mitaku. Knowing that more than likely she may never deliver the letter, she decided to open it.
Dearest Granddaughter,
By the time you read this I am already gone. I thank you for coming. I dreamt you would come. You came to me in a dream, singing on your way, red cloak billowing in the wind. Oh Granddaughter! I am sorry we will meet in such sad circumstances, but know you are loved.
I need not leave you this home, as I saw that they would be bequeathed to you by a great Lord. I know not his name, but know he is a great Lord. Honorable. His house has something to do with the stars, I believe. Based on dreams, my child.
Young one, while there is not much I can leave you at this time, know that you are the key to the town. It is the miko that runs the town, and her power alone controls it, whether with a gentle wind, or with a forceful fist. I pray you to be a gentler leader.
Child, there is not much time. I tell you this that there are more to things then they appear, and even in the darkest times you must find the light.
Grandmother
Kagome wiped tears away. This felt too personal. Too close to home. It felt like she was talking to her. She placed the letter down and decided to eat her food in peace. There would be time to work this out. Time to learn more.
She spent the remaining part of the evening cleaning the home, placing things where she believed them to go. She ended her day in the bed, dreading the day to come. What was he going to do? What did she have to do? Would this arrangement be a yearly thing? Daily? Weekly? She needed to know. She decided they would have to talk about this, preferably without him raping her. He would continue too, unless she could find a way to stop him from touching her again.
She drifted into an uncomfortable sleep, never fully staying there. She woke, prior to dawn, to her breath in the air. The home was cold. Her fire must've gone out in the r andd he would continue too, unless she She wrapped the robe around her body and walked into the opening of the home. The fire was smoldering lightly and the chill had begun to take its hold. Pushing the embers around a bit she tossed a small log in the fire. Soon enough the fire had begun again and she rested herself in front of it.
Her outer robes and garments had dried, and she pondered briefly what she should do. The sun was already beginning to rise in the east, the sky illuminating a light purple and red hue. She could put on her robes and begin the journey back through the forest, but that would have to wait until the sun was higher, if not mid-day. The freezing cold could kill her in her current state. She had enough robes, but not enough protection from the elements to make the 5 mile hike back. Not in this snowfall at least.
Sighing as she brought the warm cup of tea to her lips she pondered. She was not in the mood to cry, but she couldn't help the tears that threatened the corners of her eyes. She was fearful of the return of the Lord of the West. She thanked whatever gods may be that she hadn't been tortured by him in her dreams, but she was not ready to face him. She considered running again, but was certain he would find her and bring her back. Punish her. Rape her.
"Bestow his great, fucking, honor upon me." Kagome sneered. "What honor is there in forcing a woman? She breathed angrily. What honor indeed? She pondered. He had pulled her neck up when he said it, and rubbed it. "Probably one of those dog things… showing submission… fuck him." She fussed briefly about her predicament, but in the end decided to just play it by ear. He was beyond powerful in comparison to her, but maybe if she just uses her wits he may follow her lead and not take her again.
She sat there, burning another log in the fire before she decided to heat up her rice. She had nothing more to add to it, after noticing a hole in her bag where her food had fallen. The sun had risen high enough to signal it was mid-morning.
Knock Knock Knock
She jolted from the floor. Who was that? They knocked again, in urgency. "Ye… Yes?" She answered, grabbing her dagger from the table. "Kagome! Open the door!" She jumped up, almost tripping herself as she ran. It was Inuyasha! He came! He came! She wasn't sure how he knew to come to her, but he did!
The door flung open as she leaped into his arms, burying her face into his neck and crying. "Oh, oh Inuyasha. Thank god it's you. Thank God!" He smirked as he walked in the door, carrying the axe behind him. "The old hag in the village said you'd be here. She said you were going to meet with Sesshomaru. She said you were going to kill him. She said…" And he stopped.
He sniffed the air. "Where is he?" Inuyasha said as he pulled her away, his face suddenly turning serious. "He… he… he's not here." Kagome said shakily, unintentionally pulling her robes. "What do you mean he's not here? He smells EVERYWHERE." He began sniffing around the place, burying his face in her robes briefly. "I can kind of smell him here… but… no. That doesn't make sense." He continued around the small home, like a hound.
"Inuyasha, stop. I need to talk to you. I need to talk about-". "Hold on a second woman." He said, his face contorted in confusion as he continued to walk. He made his way to the bedroom and he froze. This is where it smelled the strongest, and the most confusing. It smelled like both of them. It smelled like sex. "Kagome… come here." Inuyasha said low, his face facing the ground. She walked tentatively behind him, stopping only to reach out to touch his shoulder. "Kagome…" She heard his voice change. "Inuyasha! I need you to listen! Please! I need you to-" He turned around and snatched her arm. He tossed her on the bed angrily and forced her legs apart as he came down upon her. He mouth never touched her, but his nose was everywhere before it finally settled on her covered flower. "Here. He had you here" He said. His hot breath dampening her covered mound. "Inuyasha, you don't understand. You don't-" He pulled back and just stared at her.
"I knew something was wrong, the first time you rejected me. It's not like it is a secret. I'm not a full blooded demon… but I didn't think you cared about that…" "No Inuyasha. It's not like that! He- He-… He…"
"Fulfilled the agreement the Miko had set forth between this Sesshomaru and herself." They both whipped around to see Sesshomaru there, in the doorway, watching the situation. It looked rather suspicious with Inuyasha between her legs, and her sprawled beneath him. "What do you mean, agreement?" Inuyasha asked, eyeing the Inu-demon. "Miko, rise. You are beginning to look like a harlot." Kagome blushed as she covered herself. "Inuyasha, don't listen to him! And Sess-""Shut up! Can't you see two men are talking?!" "But- I!" She saw Sesshomaru smirk behind her, obviously unfazed by her being slapped. "This miko has agreed to purchase this property from this Sesshomaru… in exchange for herself.' "What?!" Inuyasha screamed, this time turning to face Kagome.
"What in the fuck did you do? Were you that desperate?" "No! No! No! He, he raped me! He forced me into this agreement! I had no choice!" "You always have a fucking choice! You taught me that!" He snapped away from her, facing the demon lord. "What are the terms fuck face?" Sesshomaru eyed them briefly, "She gave herself in return for the property and title this land garnishes. She is indebted to this Sesshomaru indefinitely." Kagome's shoulders fell, tears fell freely. What was happening? He came to save her from the big bad wolf, just for him to turn into one.
She reached towards Inuyasha's robes. "Please. Inuyasha…" He pulled away gruffly. "Don't touch me." Sesshomaru, sensing an opportunity to break in his new toy walked towards Kagome and grabbed her. She attempted to pull away and scream, but he slapped his hand over her mouth. "Since, she will no longer have the ability to be yours, would you care to have one, final, touch? This Sesshomaru must admit, she is more delicious than her ninjen blood would make you believe…" Kagome's eyes ran heavy as she watched Inuyasha's face contort from anger to intrigue. He stepped forward, eyeing his brother wearily. "You want me to?" "Taste her baby brother. Taste what will never be yours. "
Inuyasha stepped back, shaking his head. "No, I… I can't… I…" Sesshomaru, enjoying the torment he was causing used his free hand to force open Kagome's robes. He ripped off her binding, so all of her goods were in the open. She attempted to scream at him, but with his hand over her mouth all she could do was attempt to protest. Inuyasha's gaze never faltered as he eyed her, like a rat in the dirt. He took a step forward, but again stopped. Sesshomaru, knowing his hesitation, reached a hand down and dipped it into Kagome's warm, waiting cunt. She moaned as she attempted to pull away again. This was her intention, to stop this. They were supposed to be talking, not this!
Inuyasha watched as his brother's finger dipped into his ex's love canal; a canal he would never get to see again. He half moaned as the spider web of her juices came out, coating Sesshomaru's finger. He brought it to his lips before depositing the juices on his tongue. "Mmm… this is your only opportunity dear brother." At this Inuyasha brought himself to his knees, inching forward until his face was mere inches from her mound. "I'm so sorry Kagome… I'm sorry." He licked one long and slick tongue down her slip, collecting her juices. Immediately his face dug deeper, he tongue exploring her crevice. His hands dug into her bum, kneading it between his claws. Sesshomaru laughed then, as he pulled away. His eyes never looked into Kagome's, but she knew he had tears. She had them. He had participated in forcing himself into her. His tongue in her temple. His hands upon her flesh.
She did not know when Sesshomaru had released her and she stepped back, but by then it was all she could do to slap Inuyasha. He stood and stared at the ground. "I'm sorry. I don't know what happened… I just... I just…" "Get out." She breathed low. "Get out." He stood then, albeit shakily. "What did you do Kagome?" He asked, still trying to process. "What did you get into?" "Obviously more than I bargained for. Get the FUCK out." With that she shoved him hard, using her purifying powers to shove him back.
He looked at her as his robes that were smoking slightly. Finally looking up after a few moment he eyed her, finally seeing the broken woman that was in front of him. His face paled. "Kagome, I-""No. I don't want to hear it. Get out." She whispered as she turned. He stepped to grab her shoulder, but had to jump back as she swung around, this time with the axe that he had brought in her hands. "I said get out!" She swung wildly at Inuyasha, stepping forward and putting more purifying power into the blade. "Get out and go away!"
She then turned towards Sesshomaru, lifting the axe above her head. "You as well. Go." Inuyasha eyed his older brother. He wasn't sure what exactly happened, and he felt horrible for his own twisted participation in the destruction of his friend. Sesshomaru lifted an eyebrow at Kagome. "If you swing that blade, this Sesshomaru will punish you severely." Tears brimmed her eyes before she blinked them away, "I will kill you."
Kagome swung hard, or at least that's what her aching muscles told her. She closed her eyes when she brought the axe down. She felt it make contact and she heard what she assumed was blade meeting with bone. She opened her eyes timidly, afraid what she would see. She had the right gut reaction to be fearful, and it was the correct thing to be. Standing before her was Sesshomaru, only this time with his arm raised and the blade of the axe between his thumb and middle finger. She didn't know what to say. She wanted to scream, but all she could do was begin crying.
Why? Why did he have to be so strong? She didn't have long to ponder this before the axe was torn from her grasp and thrown into the wall. Sesshomaru snatched her face in his hands and smiled as he backhanded her. Her body flew to the side before hitting the floor. Inuyasha went to aid her, but Sesshomaru held his arm back, indicating him to wait. "Don't you dare lay another finger on her!" He screamed as he drew his sword. "If you intend to fight this Sesshomaru for what is so clearly his, you will die hanyou."
Grabbing Kagome by her throat and lifting her to face Inuyasha, Sesshomaru spoke again. "This is mine." He lifted her throat, barring it to his younger brother. Inuyasha's face fell as he realized the implication and saw the crescent scar on her throat. "Sesshomaru… what have you done?" Inuyasha asked as he sunk to his knees, finally realizing the situation Kagome was in.
"This Sesshomaru has fulfilled an agreement."
