Demon of love chapter 2
Author's note: I don't own anything.
Fidgeting with her clothes for the thousandth time, Kagome nervously awaited to arrive in the Western lands before dark. It only took forever.
she thought. She wanted to meet this "bachelor" for a short time, get herself kicked off, and be back before dinner. The carriage had stopped
abruptly, and she sighed, relieved. They had been traveling for almost the entire day. And the sun was just beginning to set.
Kagome groaned inwardly. There went my plan. She thought. The carriage driver turned to look at her. "There is a change
of clothes in the compartment, miss." Kagome felt around for her change of clothes when she suddenly gasped. No material had ever felt this
great. A silk kimono wrapped around her tiny fingers, and she pulled it out in awe. It was a beautiful light pink dress, with a dark shiny
purple framing the sleeves and hems. In all her time in the feudal era , Kagome had never seen an outfit so exquisette. It was perfect. Not
even the royal ladies they sometimes ran across in their travels were dressed this nice. Quickly, she struggled out of her miko clothes and
slipped the kimono over her body. Hastily, she pinned up the back part of her hair and left the front fanning her face. She felt ready. And
just at that moment, the carraige stopped. They had finally arrived at a breathtaking castle. It was beautiful. Gardens everywhere, waterfalls,
and really green grass. This person must be rich. She thought. Lined up in front of her, she saw two other human women. The other nine
were female demons. Just like Sango said. All the women eyed each other with jealously and malice. All this hate towards each other just for
one guy. Women are ridiculous. She thought. Kagome stood in line with the rest of them. She could feel the awkwardness in the air. Without
warning, a blue and white haired demoness stepped forward. "What is the meaning of this!" She shrieked. Kagome looked all around, feeling
confused. Was she talking about her? She didn't have to wait long for an answer. The demoness pointed a long white and pointy well
manicured claw at Kagome's chest. "Who invited the miko to find a mate with us demons here?" The other women had stopped their talking
and turned to look at Kagome. She was so embarrassed. "Well girl, who invited you!" A majestic voice interrupted her tirade. "I did." The ladies
turned towards the cold voice that had spoken to them. A tall male with flowing silver hair stepped forward. All of a sudden Kagome felt weak.
Sesshoumaru? Was it really him? she shook her head in confusion. He hates all humans. Why would he do this? It doesn't make any sense. She
thought. It must be for the "publicity" stunt. The other women bowed at the lord before them, but kagome looked on, frozen solid at his figure
in shock. She suddenly found herself being pulled roughly to the ground with the rest of the girls. "Bow before your lord you fool!" Another
demoness hissed. With flushing cheeks, Kagome bowed to the ground, keeping her head low. I bet he's
enjoying seeing me like this. If only Inuyasha could see me bowing to his brother like this. He would try to cut his head off. At least he would. Before
Kikyo. Sesshoumaru nodded for the girls to get up. Kagome rose slowly, still keeping her head to the ground. A small green toad looking
demon rushed forward from behind sesshoumaru. Kagome recognized him as Sesshoumaru's servant, jaken. He spoke in an annoying croaky
voice. "Follow me inside the palace. "There, I will show you your each individual rooms." The line began to move forward, following him inside.
As Kagome walked passed Sesshoumaru, his hand shot out to catch her shoulder. She gasped. "It's nice to see you've accepted my personal
invitation, Kagome." Personal invitation? She thought. I just thought Sango signed me up randomly. Sango was going to get it as soon as she
came back. And she was planning to go back soon. Especially since she found out that bachelor" was Sesshoumaru. Little did anyone know,
the blue and white haired demoness had slipped off into a private garden. Waiting for her instructions. She didn't have to wait long. "Hello
Akana." The demoness Akana turned to the voice. A smirk ran across her tight features. "Hello Kikyo." She replied, as Kikyo stepped out from
the shadows. "I trust your journey was well?" Akana nodded impatiently. "Did the priestess kagome arrive yet?" Akana nodded again.
"Then i assume you already know what to do." "Ruin Kagome." "Ruin her physically and ruin her name." "I want her dead and i want her
reputation tarnished." Akana looked pleased. There was nothing better than to tear apart a person's body and spirit. "If you fail to do so."
Kikyo went on, holding up a small glass bottle with a swirling blue light in it. "Your father's soul shall perish."
