Hey yall I'm back with my next chapter. I wanted to clear up a question or two.

after Raine thought her father died she left but he never died but he thought she died so he just gave up hope.

Chapter nine: Desires flare

A/n: uh, yea just so you know this chapter will be very explicit so… if that makes you uncomfortable please skip it.

'he's really getting on my nerves' Raine muttered to herself as she walked down the corridor, nodding greeting to those who crossed her path. Sesshomaru was acting weird these last few days. He would stare endlessly at her and with such open lust she blushed under the intensity of her gaze. When she walked past him he followed every body part except her face. And, she mused her mark got almost unbearably hot when she was close to him.

She saw meia and decided to ask the demoness about it.

"meia, have you noticed anything… odd about Sesshomaru these last few days?" she asked almost hesitantly. She frowned when meia smirked evilly

"you mean the way he looks at you as if you were, a piece of meat and he just came off a fast of bread and water"

she replied she nodded knowingly when Raine's cheeks turned a faint crimson.

"he is ready to take you child" a new voice called she turned and looked into the double colored eyes of her father, her face took on a deeper shade of red, she was still uncomfortable knowing that her father would know what she and sessh did together.

Guessing her fears, lord Kenji rubbed her flushed cheek with his elegant finger tips.

"do not be ashamed, it is a natural process" with that he offered his arm to meia and he escorted her to her bed chamber, with her children in tow.

Raine sighed and decided, she would take a walk in the gardens. It always seemed to calm her, with the sweet smelling flowers and shady trees. But her favorite time to walk was at midnight when it was most quiet, she walked to a small stone bench and seated her self upon it.

"did he choose me, was it only out of his heat cycle?" she asked her self aloud

"can I ever please him, he could do so much better them me but he seems to be truthful to me" she said unknown to her Sesshomaru had masked his scent and aura and listened as she talked to herself.

"am I good enough? No. am I worthy enough?" he heard her sigh heavily and the salty smell of tears caught his sensitive nose "I'll never be"

So that was what was wrong, she felt unworthy of his attentions, he had planned on taking her as a mate, but being in his heat cycle sped up his process. He had wanted to be romantic, having her smile and blush as she accepted his offer, not with him trying to rape her. He came closer and sat him self gracefully next to her, Raine quickly turned away and wiped her eyes and nose,

"are you crying" it was a dumb as hell question, but he felt compelled to ask.

"no!" she snapped "you, always think something is wrong when I cry cant I just cry with out being bombarded with questions damn!" she babbled loudly and gestured wildly with her hands. Which was a dead give away that she was very distraught. He caught her hands in his and pulled her closer, she struggled but her was to strong. "Raine look at me" her tear filled silver eyes gazed into his. "I will show you that you are worthy of me" he whispered against her lips. And he kissed her, it wasn't like any of his other hot kisses.

It was sweet and tender. And it was way off kilter; you know to be soft for a person like Sesshomaru. He picked her gently and still, never broke their passionate lip lock. When Sesshomaru laid Raine down again it was in a large, patch of pale sakura flowers. With the full moon illuminating them, the moon that looked so much like Raine's eyes.

Sesshomaru worshiped her body. Slowly he untied the sash to her kimono. Sliding the silky fabric of her shoulders. "I have a phrase I want you to say" he said kissing her neck. Swirling his tongue around her mate mark, she moaned.

"what is it" Raine asked breathlessly, she squealed when her kimono fell open exposing her self to the night air,

"say I am worthy" he whispered against her breasts, when she began to protest, he pilled a nipple deep into his mouth, "ah! Sessh, what are you doing to me" Raine said as his kisses moved down ward, "say it" he growled

"no" she said almost inaudible his teeth, nipped the inside of her thigh. Before he could make his kisses more intimate, she flipped him over and watched his eyes turn hazy. She leaned down and licked his ears, loving the hiss she got, slowly Raine moved down his body, when she reached her hand down and wrapped her fingers around his shaft, the sensations she created were out worldly.

"you'll be screaming it when I'm through with you" his soft husky voice threatened. He let out an erotic low grown when the pressure of her stroking fingers increased.

"you're the one to talk when you lay flat on you're back" she remarked. Sesshomaru sat up, slowly his blazing golden orbs gazing into her icy eyes. He slowly slipped the rest of her kimono of her tanned shoulders. When she was straddling him fully nude, her hand instinctively moved to cover herself from his gaze. Turning her head shamefully away.

"don't" his boomed making her jump "you are beautiful do not hide this from me" he insisted

He decided it was time to fully and finally dissipate her insecurities. He gently laid her back the soft petals of the sakura blossoms cushioned her back. Sesshomaru stood above Raine; he undressed himself slowly, almost seductively.

Raine watched as though she were in a trance, his body was so well defined it looked like an artist spend years constructing every ridge and hollow. He was perfect yet, she paled so much in comparison. His form was tall and lean, he long well shaped legs, bunched as he leaned over her. Her eyes were transfixed on her jauntily protruding member that bobbed each time he made the slightest movement. Raine may have not known any man in her life but, she was not ignorant of what happened between a man and woman. But looking at her mate's organ, she didn't think it would be very pleasurable to have that thing inside her.

Sesshomaru was aware of her gaze, she was frightened of him, for once this part of his anatomy was more of a curse then a blessing.

"will, it, will it fit?" she asked nervously this made he laugh not a chuckle, but deep sexy, reach sound

"it will. Trust me" his body covered hers, stretching his lean form over lush curves.

When his hot breath brushed the most feminine part of her body she tensed and attempted to move away. But his clawed hand clamped over her legs and held her there and his shoulders kept her from closing her legs.

"relax my love" the words spilled from his mouth, and he had not intent to stop them, "trust me" he whispered his face moved closer to her soft black curls between her legs, with expert speed and skill his tongue moved in and out in a rhythm that had Raine squirming and panting beneath him.

"Sesshomaru… I…I don't think" she tried to talk but her voice wanted her to moan for more but she refused to give in to him… just yet

"say it and I'll stop the torture" he said evilly, he carefully slid a claws fingers into her smirking at the gasp, he himself groaned when her inner female muscles clamped tightly around his finger.

"I cant" she panted

Two fingers! Oh the sensations were mind boggling!

"why not" he doubled his efforts, his tongue and fingers working faster to make her scream the phrase

Something was happening to Raine's body, it was a feeling like no other, a kind of building pressure that made her body ache.

"say it" he whispered

She tried to talk but she couldn't form coherent words let alone sentences

"say it" the pressure in her body build than she almost cried from the dull ache of it, then it came, he eyes seeing started and Rainbows of color, heat spread through her. And in the end she did scream it.

"I am beautiful!" he voice echoed through the courtyard. Satisfied her gave her one last seductive lick and moved up her body.

"you're ready Raine" she nodded

"I'm ready, Sesshomaru"

"wrap your legs around my waist" he was pleased when she did so

He wrapped one hand around himself and started enter her body, when she tensed it made it harder for him to slid in.

"Raine, you're killing me, you have to let me in" he pleaded

"I'm trying" she cried

He shifted her legs draped over his shoulders. And he sheathed himself in side her in one smooth, powerful thrust. Raine screamed a wonderful mix of pain and pleasure, he rested his weight on his forearms leaning to take one nipple captive in his mouth. He did not move

"is there more to this my mate" she teased playfully batting her eyelashes

"oh, yes much more", when he began to move a new gauntlet of feelings were kindles anew. His body slid erotically against her hands slid downward to grasp his buttocks pulling him deeper (if possible!) inside of her.

He flipped him self on his back to let her have a little control, he did this when he felt his release near and the clamping and unclamping her inner muscles, that her own was close as well.

"Sesshomaru" she whispered breathlessly, he molten gaze was fixed on her breasts, the jiggled as he bounced her

"I want this WHOLE castle to know who you belong to" he growled bouncing her almost savagely but she enjoyed it oh so much!

He leaned up his arms wrapped around her tightly he bit into her mate mark reopening it and sucked as his release raked his body and hers as well. Her nails made deep cuts down his back, but he just growled and closed her mark collapsing by her side.

Hours later.

The pair had spent hours making love and learning of the other's body. The sun was rising. His outer kimono spread over them, she felt wondrously sated in his arms.

"I didn't think I'd ever feel this way" she murmured kissing his neck. Sesshomaru pilled her closer.

"like what" he asked

"so complete, so happy so… loved"

"I fell that way to" he gaze was drawn to the sun which was now completely up in the sky, they dressed. Raine recalled his promise that she wouldn't be able to walk, case she couldn't!

"you weren't kidding when you said after you were done with me I wouldn't be able to walk" she giggled, she was wobbling on her feet. He picked her up and headed inside tha castle.

"I'll never be done with you" he purred

They passed many grinning servant and guest all of them congratulated Sesshomaru and Raine's 'union'

Sesshomaru left for the dinning hall for breakfast, she would join him after she bathed. She changed in a flowing dark blue flowing gown, leaving her hair down to dry, she limped into the dinning room, all eyes were on her, she blushed a deep crimson. She limped over to Sesshomaru much to his amusement and that of the other lords and ladies.

"did I do that" Sesshomaru asked his face was stoic but he eyes were alit with easy happiness

"shut up Sesshomaru" she growled wincing when she sat, the bath helped but her muscles still ached from their love play

"milady I never remember meia being loud, but that way surpassed her" he growled at meia who punched his arm

"what, it's the truth" he rubbed his arm. "you've forgotten how loud you were" she accused turning away and blushing slightly angry but more annoyed he would mention something so intimate to others.

Tai, sensed he had mad her angry. His heart softened towards his beloved

"come my own" tai chided gently "I was only teasing"

Meia said nothing she flipped her long midnight blue hair over her shoulder promptly dismissing him.

Raine had to smile at the love so openly displayed with the eastern lord and his wife.

"meia" tai called moving closer to her. "come on we'll kiss and make up" tai suggested

"huh-uh" meia said she turned her back on him, "you know you cant stay mad at me" still his mate ignored him, so tai decided to do something to… catch her attention. He tackled her, laughing with the others when she let out a loud excited squeal she couldn't fully contain. She fought him, but he finally pinned her arms above her head.

"give me a kiss meia" tai said sternly

"no" was her haughty replied

His beautiful hazel eyes narrowed "I can hold this position all day if you'd like a challenge my love" he said "or you can give my kiss"

"fine, fine, here" she kissed him a short but passionate kiss. They straightened then selves and re sat at the table it continued like that for a while all the couples snuggled up and talking. Raine couldn't help but see the far away look in her father's eyes. He told her he had a mate that loved him and he returned that love, he couldn't bring her because she was close to her child birth bed this was her 4 pregnancy (ALL twins). Raine assured him he would be with her again soon.

As they went their separate ways the other lords departing Raine leaned against her husband very contented

"I love you Sesshomaru"

"I love you, my mate"
