I do not own Inuyasha!
Please read and review!
Kagome woke slowly and snuggled against the comforting warmth of Sesshomaru's back. She smiled, rolled over and threw her arm across…a furry body? She opened her eyes and shrieked.
"Captain!" The big brown dog was lying next to her, his head on the pillow beside hers. How could she forget about him? Maybe it was the simple truth that he has always left for days and sometimes weeks to places unknown, but somehow he had always returned. He was a gift to her by Shippo as a puppy when he had left two years ago as an adult an independent of her, she was the only parent he has had from the time that he was an orphaned kit, and she was deeply saddened by his leaving. He was the last of her original group of friends to leave.
He barked, "woof, woof" and seemed to smile with her and she laughed and patted his head, and he licked her hands and face multiple times before getting up and heading into the kitchen, "mm-mph" she sighed and said, "I guess old habits are hard to break," and got up and followed her dog to the kitchen to prepare there meals.
As she ate, and her dog devoured his meal at her feet, she reflected on her time in the west. The meeting concluded and almost all the members agreed on the course of action to be taken to bring about the changes needed to ensure their survival. Tolerance, understanding and the respect of each other's cultures and differences, and the need to exist peacefully and cohesively in a world large enough to accommodate these inhabitants were the major elements necessary to safeguard their future. And all out war was not the answer. Their survival was not threatened at this point in time, so peaceful solutions were best.
She had earned the respect of the majority of the council members as Sesshomaru had said, and she did it with courage and dignity, even though there were moments when she had wanted to lash out at lady Harumi and a few others for treating her like she was less than an animal, and was not fit to sit amongst them, but she didn't. That just wasn't her style, maybe when she was younger she would have, but living for so long can change a person's perspective. Her meal was finished and she got up and Captain followed closely behind as she went outside and sat in her swing, and he barked loudly when it started to move and ran out of the way and around her.
For the moment she needed to sit and relax to think about what she and Sesshomaru had discussed before he brought her home. He had wanted her to stay, and she wanted to, but the timing was all wrong, he had too much going on in his life right now, and she was a peaceful woman and loved the tranquility of her life in Edo.
"Kagome stay here with me," he had said when they were both lying in bed that night after the meeting, and he was resting on his elbows and looking down and into her eyes, and she wanted so much to say yes, but the day's events were still fresh and the way in which his lover had attacked her was still troubling. And the differences in their cultures were wide and she did not have a working knowledge of their ways, their relationship if it was going to work needed time, patience and understanding. She breathed deeply and then she answered him. "I cannot stay here with you, I am sorry." And then she closed her eyes as the tears threatened to spill. He felt empty at her rejection, these feelings he was having were new, and he wasn't sure how to handle them properly, but he respected and cared for her.
And so he held her and turned her into his embrace and kissed her forehead trying to comfort her because he knew that she was still shaken by all that has happened, and he never wanted those things for her, but life was full of trials and the unknown. He shook his head regretfully because he wanted this woman as much as how he needed to breathe, she was different, and she stimulated not only his body but his mind equally as well.
He felt her body shiver with her crying and he hugged her closer still, and when she was calm she shifted her body and away from his chest and looked at him with red puffy eyes; and he couldn't help himself, and so he kissed her. Resting his hand at the back of her neck he brought her closer to him while running his tongue along the seams of her lips softening and nibbling on them, she gasps and he pulled her lips into his mouth sucking on them gently; easing his tongue into her awaiting mouth where she closed her lips around his smooth appendage sucking soothingly on it while he thrust it back and forth, he groaned and she moaned as the sensations took them higher, while his other hand he used to ease her night gown off her shoulders.
Moving from her lips to her neck and shoulders he kissed, licked and sucked on her skin until she was squirming from the delightful sensations from his agile and wicked mouth devastating her senses with pleasure. She was lost to the passionate feelings running throughout her body and settling into her core where it pulsed and clenched with desire and want as the male above her dragged his fangs across her nipples, "oooh, aaah, mmmm," she moaned and cried out as she felt a gush of wetness from her vagina. His hand went instinctively to her most sacred treasure just as she locked her legs together trying to alleviate some of the need she felt.
Jarring her legs apart he rubbed his knuckles along her vagina coating them into her juices and gliding his fingers to her clitoris stroking and massaging it slowly, she felt helpless and wanton opening up more spreading her legs even further. His need was painful as his erection strained against his hakamas wanting to be free; but it could wait, he only wanted to pleasure her and make her feel good after the distressing couple of days that she has had. A tremor passed through her body as he rubbed her faster and sucked on her nipples more harshly. Then suddenly he stopped and with it the wonderful sensations and she was disappointed, but not for long, as he buried his head in her crotch and gave it a long sniff.
Grabbing onto his hair she tried to pull him away, the intimacy of such an act caused her to become shy, and he raised his head and quietly whispered, "Be still, let me love you," her eyes widened in shock at his words and she lie back down on the bed silently accepting the comfort and the pleasure. His mouth closed over her nub immediately, sucking hard causing her body to raise of the bed involuntarily at the new and pleasant sensations and he held her down, all the nerves in her body burst to life, her whole body shivered and her legs were weak as he worked her pleasure center licking it over and over, then sucking and grazing his fangs along it.
Her breathing was raspy and harsh, her chest rose and fell unevenly, she gasps, she moans, she twists, and she turns, while Sesshomaru feasted on her cunt and drawing out all her pent up emotions and passions as she cried out and held onto his hair bringing his face closer to her sanctuary, he loved her reactions, and it made him feel good. Raising her leg off the bed he jammed his tongue into her hole and she screamed, "Oh Kami!, Oh Kami!" and he never let up on his oral assault, as he licked her even faster and stronger, her legs quaked and her body shivered as she came and releasing her juices. He removed himself from her center and watched as she writhed in bliss from her orgasm.
Her eyes opened after awhile, and in the glow of the lantern she saw his eyes smoldering with heat and passion, she gasped at the intense look he was giving her and nibbled on her lips in nervousness trying to figure out if she wanted him to continue and to make her a woman, relieving her of her innocence, and looking at him she also knew that he was waiting on her answer. The euphoria of her climax waned and she could think much clearer. And although she felt badly for letting things go so far, and now she was positive that she wanted it to go no further, but she also realized that her actions now were the right ones.
"I can't," she said softly and closing her eyes after seeing the disappointment on his face by the narrowing of his eyes. "I can't share you with those women, it is not who I am," and the tears flowed and he sat on the bed and pulled her up and into his arms and calmly he said. "I know that it disturbs you, but when my mother brought those females to my home I was in the process of rebuilding my father's legacy, and having concubines is an acceptable practice among both our kinds." She shook her head and replied, "I know that it is an acceptable practice among the rich and privileged be it demon or human, but it is not acceptable by me," she snapped. "In the first place," he began evenly, "there was a need to breed and have children, I was able to do that with their assistance, I never would have imagined that you would eventually be a part of my life," he said with urgency trying to get her to understand.
"Sesshomaru, I know that you did what you thought was right and I cannot blame you for it, but please don't ask me to become one of them…I couldn't live with myself if I did what you wanted." He took Kagome's chin in his hand and gazed at her so lovingly that she wondered if he really loved her, because she already loved him so much, when he spoke it was with remorse. "What would you have me do Kagome? I am ruler of these lands and these females are under my care, some of them I even have pups with…I want us to have a chance but making the changes will take time." She sighed then unsure of what her expectations were, and so she remained silent.
"Are you alright?" he asked concerned after awhile, his voice was clipped and his eyes boring into hers when she did not answer his previous question. "I am," she answered and swallowed harshly, dropping her eyes from his stare. "Sesshomaru let us focus on the task at hand, safeguarding your species...Whatever we feel for each other if it is real I am sure that with time we will find the answers." He nodded his agreement and got up from beside her and went to sit on the chair by the table, where he picked up a scroll and handed it to her, and she reached for it stretching from the bed to grasp it. "These are recommendations from some of our members on the best way to proceed. Read them over, and make the necessary changes where you deemed fit…I will take you back to Edo in the morning," and then he got up and left. She slept alone that night worried, because he seemed changed.
In the morning when she was dressed and ready to go he came for her as he said he would and took her home, no words were exchanged between them until he took her to her door, she was saddened by the distance now opened up between them, and she couldn't tell what he was feeling because he seemed cold and emotionless once again. "I will see you in a week's time," he said and walked away, and she wanted so much to reach out to him, but she couldn't, their relationship was moving way too fast and they had many issues to work on; they needed time and space from each other, and that was two weeks ago, and she had not seen or heard from him since then.
'Where could he be?' she wondered unhappily as she rocked in the swing and was lost in her thoughts, that it was the incessant and loud barking of Captain that brought her back to the present, and as she looked up she saw him, she saw Sesshomaru walking towards her, and she smiled relieved as her dog ran away and towards him, she was fearful for her dog and called out to him, "Captain stop!" but he continued bounding away until he came to a halt at the demon's lord feet and looking up at him curiously, and he looking down at the dog as well. Kagome watched silently and saw Sesshomaru petting her dog and she giggled and walked to meet him.
"Hi," she greeted him
"Hello Kagome," he responded, and she smiled broadly and took his hand and leading him inside.
