kA/N: Yo! Okay so thanks so much for all the lemon comments! Glad you guys liked them! Okay, now I know I haven't included Koga, Inuyasha, Sango, Miroku, Shippo, Kilala, Kikyo, or Naraku in the last few chapters. Truthfully, I don't feel like writing about Kikyo and Naraku anymore, so maybe I can just edit them out of the first chapters? Tell me if that would be okay. The reason Inuyasha and the others haven't been in the last, like, 4 chapters is because the lemon took up 2 chapters, but it all took place over, like, 2 hours. So I just make time go by really slow. Sorry. Anyway, sorry if this is a spoiler, but Inuyasha and the others will meet up with the Band of Seven in the next chapter probably. And I am SOOO sorry it took me this long to update! REALLY sorry! I know I never take this long. Thank you and Happy Reading!
Summary- Kagome is kidnapped by the band of seven because of her power to sense the jewel shards. With Koga and Inuyasha searching for her, can she really fall in love?

O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o
Bankotsu carried Kagome back to the castle, graceful as always. He was careful not to wake her; she definitely needed some rest after what had just happened.
Bankotsu couldn't help but think about how incredibly great the sex with Kagome was. He hadn't been expecting anything special, but he got more than he bargained for. He could definitely say she was the best woman he had ever layed with.
He pondered that for a second. Bankotsu couldn't bring himself to classify Kagome under the term 'woman'. She was just too innocent. He would probably use the word 'girl'. It was almost as if she had the body of a woman, but the face of a girl. But whatever she looked like, he knew one thing; he would always love her.
She wasn't necessarily experienced, but she was sure good at what she did. Well technically, he had done most of the fucking, but she could sure give a man some serious pleasure.
Tingles ran down his spine and throughout his body. He had better stop thinking about this or he was going to get another boner, and he was pretty sure Kagome wouldn't be up for another fuck right now. She might have been in bliss while it was going on, but he was almost positive she would wake up sore. He couldn't be sure how much pain she would be in, but he wanted her to be comfortable when she woke up and it hit her.
Bankotsu was going to take her to the castle, bathe her, and lay her in the bed. He would stay by her until she woke up. The last thing he wanted was for her to think he had left her.
Another issue that was going to pop up was his brothers. They would wonder what happened. 'Did you find any shards?' They would ask him. He would tell them no, and who knows what would happen after that. He was going to try to sneak her in through the back, the same way he had left, but that would be a little hard with all his extra weight, and those super-squeaky floors. Plus, his brothers and he were trained to listen intently to everything. They would surely hear him.
'Well, whatever happens, I swear… if they lay one hand on her, I'll…'
O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o
Bankotsu walked in the back door, as silently as possible, but of course… someone just had to notice him.
Mukotsu gulped, looking at the unconscious Kagome in his Brother's arms. She just looked so… vulnerable.
A stern glare was plastered on his face. But this time he wasn't looking at Bankotsu, he was looking at Kagome. It really made his blood boil that Bankotsu could have her, but he couldn't.
"Oi, Mukotsu, you got something to say?" Bankotsu asked harshly.
Mukotsu was brought out of his trance only to meet the slightly angry cerulean eyes of his brother.
Mukotsu cleared his throat. "Did you find any shards?"
Bankotsu looked away. "No, there weren't any in range."
Before Mukotsu could answer, Renkotsu popped out from behind the corner of the hallway.
"Then, what, might I ask, were you and the wench doing during the last few hours?" Renkotsu pressed.
Bankotsu tore his eyes from the wall to look at his disloyal brethren. An angry glare ripped through his flawless features.
"I don't believe that's any of your business."
"What's wrong Big Brother? Afraid to admit you were fucking your bitch?"
Bankotsu's grip tightened around Kagome, his eyes closed, and his lips pursed. Just as he was unconsciously about to squeeze the life out of her, an involuntary whimper escaped her throat.
He loosened back up and opened his eyes to the smirking Renkotsu.
"If she wasn't in my arms right now, I'd rip your throat out. I won't allow you to talk about her like that. And don't disrespect me, I'm the leader Renkotsu. Know you're place." Bankotsu said calmly, regaining his posture. He knew that one would hit Renkotsu hard.
"Oh, but I do know my place Big Brother. But do you? Is your place here, with your brothers whom you've lived with since as long as you can remember, or with the enemy's bitch whom you've not known even one moon cycle?"
Bankotsu didn't answer, but scowled.
"Oh, and big brother, I've been wanting to ask you… how is it? I mean, does she fuck you good? I wouldn't expect her to know how to know how to suck a cock, considering she's what, 13 years? I bet she's real tight too…" Renkotsu babbled on.
Bankotsu thought that if he didn't put Kagome down right now, he was going to kill her, just out of all the anger Renkotsu was causing him, he thought he was about to explode in rage.
"SHUT YOUR FUCKING MOUTH RENKOTSU! YOU SAY ONE MORE WORD ABOUT ME OR HER AND I'LL PERSONALLY SHOVE BANRYU UP YOUR ASS! And you should really be thankful to her; she's the only one keeping me from killing you right now!" He yelled in extreme anger.
Renkotsu took a step back in fright. Bankotsu only got like this when he was really frustrated. Mukotsu did the same.
"Now get out of my sight before I change my mind and rip you're face off!" He yelled again, literally tired of looking at that ugly face of his.
Renkotsu mustered up as much pride as he could, gave an evil glare Bankotsu's way, and then stormed down the hallway, his cape flailing behind him from his speed.
Mukotsu was about to leave before the situation got even worse, but Bankotsu stopped him.
"Oh, and Mukotsu?"
"Yes Big Brother?"
"Keep your eyes off what's mine."
Mukotsu froze, a little shocked he had been caught staring at her.
"Do you understand me?" Bankotsu asked, the harshness never leaving his voice.
"Y-yes Big Brother." He answered obediently.
Bankotsu nodded and let him leave.
Once Mukotsu was done, Bankotsu began literally panting from the argument. He was sure that was the biggest amount of self-control he'd had to have in all his life.
Bankotsu looked down at the sleeping Kagome. But now, instead of her peaceful, angelic face, there was a troubled, fearful expression.
Bankotsu knew it was him. He'd scared her, even while unconscious, when he was fighting with Renkotsu. Oh, how Renkotsu got on his nerves sometimes.
He cradled her in his arms, bringing her face close to his, and shooshing her troubled whimpers. He slowly slid down with his back against the wall, putting his forehead against hers.
"I'm sorry." He whispered.
He stayed with her like that for a while, just watching her sleep.
When he knew she would be waking up soon, he slowly stood from his position on the ground, taking her up with him. Her troubled facial expressions had vanished once he'd began to comfort her. Now it was just her peaceful, angelic look.
Bankotsu was glad none of his other brothers had come over to him in the last 30 minutes, not even Jakotsu. Renkotsu and Mukotsu must've spread the word he was in a bad mood. No one bothered him when he was in a bad mood. It was practically a death wish.
Of course, his bad mood had faded quicker than usual. Just being in Kagome's presence made him relax. He was no demon, but she still had a certain scent to her. He couldn't really compare her to anything. A flower, maybe, he'd heard those smelled good. Of course he had never taken the time to pick one up and actually sniff it. That was more Jakotsu's personality.
Bankotsu walked into the hot spring in his room. He would've locked the door, but everyone knew better than to disturb him, especially right now.
He slowly unclothed her, being careful not to scratch or bruise her delicate figure. He actually did have to take these precautions. He wasn't used to being gentle with any human being, whether he was hugging them or killing them. His brothers were acceptingly used to his rough nature, and it didn't affect them. Kagome was his first exception, of course. He would never hurt her purposely.
His tried not to let his eyes get the best of him, but with a beauty like her in front of him it was hard. He undressed as well, but just removed his shirt. Bankotsu didn't want her to wake up with him totally naked and think he was trying to molest her in her sleep or something like that. His pants needed to be washed anyway.
He'd promised himself to take a cold bath, but Kagome would probably find that highly uncomfortable. Besides, he was doing a pretty good job of controlling himself, for once.
Bankotsu slowly walked into the boiling spring, waiting for any type of reaction from Kagome. At first she just lay limp in his arms, but once the hot water surrounded her, she cracked her lids open.
"B- Bankotsu?" She asked tiredly, her eyes barely open.
"I'm here Kagome." He answered.
"Hmmm." She said contently, snuggling into his chest.
Bankotsu's arms engulfed her petite form, wrapping all the way around her.
"How do you feel?" Bankotsu asked, slightly worried.
But she was already back asleep.
He laughed a bit, pushing back her raven bangs back so he could see her beautiful face.
"Kagome." He breathed.
Bankotsu moved his lips to the soft, pale skin of her forehead, giving her a gentle kiss there.
She let out a comfortable sigh, feeling his touch in her dreams.
Bankotsu took the herbs that had been mixed together as use for soap and squirted some in his hand.
Slowly, he lathered her beautiful black hair, messaging her head as he did.
When he was done, he slowly dunked her head back until it reached her hair line, washing out what was left of the soapy substance.
She remained asleep the entire time, occasionally letting out content sighs or even quiet little moans. Bankotsu enjoyed these, as he enjoyed all the noises she made. Well, all besides that horrible screeching she did when she was upset, or her quiet sobs when she was sad. He could remember those.
He took more of the herbs and slowly began bathing her body. He wasn't going to go into any personal space besides her breasts. The other places she could probably take care of herself.
It wasn't that he thought it was gross or something, he just knew that if he continued and actually did end up bathing her womanhood, his unfaithful dick would harden, and that would definitely wake Kagome up. He would have to remember to take more baths with her when she was back to normal. He would definitely enjoy bathing more.
When he was done, he stepped out of the hot spring, both their skin slightly reddened by the burning water.
He wrapped her up in the biggest towel they had; or what was like a towel in the feudal era, and carried her to his bed.
Bankotsu set her down gently, always being careful of her diminutive body.
He was relieved that she hadn't woken up yet. That would give her more time to rest and heal, so that if she was sore, it wouldn't be as bad.
He kissed her forehead again, and went into the bathroom to dry him and his pants off.
The one and only thing that had succeeded in scaring him in his entire life ran through his head. Naraku.
Now it wasn't Naraku himself, but what he had done to Bankotsu. When Naraku had offered him eternal life on earth, he hadn't thought of it as a curse, but now that he got to take a good look at it, it was seeming more and more like that.
There were two things that could happen to him and his brothers.
The first was that they could be betrayed by this Naraku, like he had heard of so many others being. Or they could efface Naraku and actually live the everlasting life Naraku had promised them.
Bankotsu was personally leaning towards the second option, but that might not work. Once again, for the first time in his life he had doubts that he could defeat Naraku. He seemed exceptionally powerful, and it seemed even the mutt had not yet succeeded.
Did Naraku really keep running from Inuyasha, or was he just playing with him? Surely his brothers could defeat him, if they all worked together? What would happen with the mutt once he found out about him and Kagome? Did Naraku know about their relationship yet? He hadn't seen any Saimyoushou in a long time. Nor had he seen that little Ninja boy, Kohaku. What was Naraku plotting?
Bankotsu was pulled out of his thoughts by a low moan from the other room. He didn't have time to even through on his shirt before he was out the door to check on his beloved Kagome.
Kagome's eyes were closed tightly as the second moan escaped her mouth.
"Hmmmm."
She wasn't in absolute agony, but she was sore.
"Bankotsu…" She called out with her eyes still closed.
Bankotsu hopped on the bed and embraced her in his arms.
"Are you okay?"
She moaned again. "Yeah, just… a little sore." Kagome blushed.
He smirked at her blush and kissed her on the lips. Kagome curled up in his arms and clung to him.
"Do you need anything?" He asked, worried as always.
"No, just some rest. I'm sure I'll be fine in a day or two." She answered.
"Okay. Don't worry, take as much time as you need love." Bankotsu said.
She nodded and curled deeper into him.
"Did you, uhh…. Give me a bath?" Kagome asked timidly, looking up to him with her big, round eyes.
"Yup, I figured you'd want to be clean when you woke up. Why?" He asked gently.
Kagome turned her head away. She didn't want him to see her blushing so badly.
"Well, I was uhh, just wondering." She stuttered.
"You don't have to be so embarrassed. I think you're beautiful." Bankotsu encouraged.
She didn't answer.
Bankotsu sighed. "Well, I'm gonna go see what the guys are up to. Dinner should be ready soon." He said, beginning to get off the bed.
A small hand wrapped around his wrist stopped him. Although he could've easily broken the hold, he didn't.
Bankotsu turned around, and his face met once again met those big brown eyes of hers. The worst part was, she looked scared, like she was about to cry. Before he could say anything, she spoke up.
"No! Don't leave me Bankotsu!" She cried out, as if he were about to leave her and never come back.
Seeing her troubled expression and hearing the absolute panic in her tiny and shaking voice, he sat back on the bed, once again embracing her in his warmth.
"What's wrong with you love? Why do you look so sad? I promise I'll come back Kagome." He said in his most comforting voice, running his hands through her moist hair.
"No." She cried. Tears rolled down her cheeks now, wetting his muscled chest.
Feeling the moisture, he removed his hold around her and moved his hands to her shoulders. He pulled back, removing what she thought to be her own irremovable hold around him.
"What are you crying for? Stop this." He said as his worried look turned harsh. He wiped the tears pouring from her chocolate eyes. His look was stern but his voice and touch was extremely soft and gentle.
When more tears began falling from her eyes, his face turned worried and he pulled her back into his arms, hugging her so tightly to his chest he thought she might not be able to breathe.
"Kagome, what's wrong!? Is it the pain?!" His voice shook.
She shook her head into his chest, signaling a no.
"Then what is it?!" He asked, his voice still coated with worry. All he wanted to do was make her stop crying. Make her feel better. He hated it when she cried.
When she didn't answer, he stopped pushing it on her, and just sat there, holding her in his arms until she stopped crying.
When she finally quieted down a little, she loosened up in his arms and looked up to him with the puffy, red eyes that hurt him so much.
"I thought… I thought you were gonna leave me." She choked out. "I thought you just used me." She started crying again and buried herself into his chest. He just looked at her with wide eyes. "But I love you! I don't want you to ever let go of me! I want to be in your arms all the time! I'm scared here, with these… these murderers. I mean… your brothers. They could just come and kill me with one punch!" She cried into his chest.
He pulled her out of his chest to face him in a tight grip, his face wide with anger.
"Kagome, I will never, ever, let anyone hurt you." When she didn't respond, he kept on going. "Don't you get it you stupid girl!? I would die before I let anyone even touch you!" What he was really feeling was embarrassment, but he showed it in anger.
When he noticed his temper unintentionally flaring, he loosened his death grip on her shoulders, and looked her straight in the eye, his expression softening.
"I love you Kagome."
Kagome sniffed. "I no." She looked back at him. "I was just scared."
"Don't be. You shouldn't ever have a reason to be scared when I'm around."
She cuddled up into him, once again unanswering, and fell asleep.
Bankotsu sighed and rubbed her hair and back absentmindedly. Being in love was harder than he thought.
