Chapter 5 – Arousal
Yaone gasped slightly, not quite sure she had heard him correctly. "Why would you want to see my hair loose?" she asked quietly, suddenly nervous about the direction this was headed.
"I really don't know; I'm not sure why I was even thinking it. Just forget I said anything. Let me tell you about the time Goku and Gojyo caused us to be dunked into a river."
A brief flash of fire lit somewhere inside her at the thought of taking her hair down in front of Hakkai. Yaone smiled, "It's ok; I do take it down sometimes – It's just out of the way when I pull it back." Her hands crept up slowly and loosened off the ties that kept it neatly out of the way.
Hakkai watched her face intently as she tugged the ties from the purple mass. His breath caught in his throat as the locks fell forward over her shoulders. His groin tightened slightly as his hands reached out to smooth the silky mass back from her face.
Yaone blushed again. "Well…?"
"I think it's beautiful… you're beautiful," he whispered leaning closer to her.
She hastily scooted away from his grasp as she realized his intent. "Your turn…"
He looked at her quizzically. "I was wondering why you hide your youkai form. Are you ashamed of what you are?"
He looked away quickly his eyes downcast. The spark of fire died in him. "I am not sure what I am… I was human, but my sins caused me to become a youkai."
Yaone gasped slightly, "You bathed in the blood of a 1000 demons to become one of us?"
He nodded sadly. "I did it all for the sake of meaningless revenge – and now I cannot escape the curse that is my other form. I really don't know who or what I am. Am I a man or am I a youkai?"
Yaone placed her hands over his. "What ever your reasons, I am sure that at the time you felt justified. But that's just it. It is all in the past – you can't let it consume you. You can only move forward and only you can decide for yourself what you are and where you belong." She smiled her warmest smile in his direction, hoping to lighten the mood. "Besides," she said hoping to distract him. "What is so bad about your youkai form? Let me see for myself. Maybe I can find something positive in it."
Hakkai looked startled at her request. "I… I'm not so sure. I always wear limiters to blend in with society and there is a chance the minus wave will affect me just as it has other youkai."
"That's ridiculous," she snorted. "I've been at the source of this disturbance and nothing has happened to me. Come on Hakkai, let me see the real you."
"Just don't say I didn't warn you," he reminded her.
"Hey! I am youkai remember?" She placed her hand over his and gave it a gentle squeeze. "Do you think that I can't handle seeing another youkai?" He stared into her ruby eyes helplessly. "Oh wait, maybe you're so good looking that I'll fall at your feet in a swoon." She teased him lightly, drawing another smile to his lips.
Three gold clips popped into his waiting hand and he quickly shoved them into his pocket. His body glowed as the transformation process began. Yaone shielded her eyes from the brilliant glow. She felt the power rolling off of him in waves as he transformed. The glow slowly faded and was replaced by waves of raw power. Hakkai radiated power while he wore his limiters, but now the power was overwhelming. How could any youkai have so much power at their disposal?
"You can look at me. I promise I won't bite."
She gasped slightly as she took in his appearance. His clothing had remained unchanged, but the rest of him… Hakkai's glossy black hair was now longer and falling gently over his collar and ears. A complicated youkai tattoo of twisted vines snaked their way over his skin. His ears pointed into long tips and sharp nails glistened at the ends of his fingers. One sharp fang gleamed behind his slight smile. His eyes seemed to take on a new life as they shimmered with a deep emerald green from their sockets.
Yaone gasped softly as she looked at him. "Wow, you look – you look…" she bit her lip in sudden uncertainly and quickly averted her eyes.
"Don't worry; I'll put the limiters back on. I can't get used to looking at myself like this either." Hakkai sighed tiredly, somewhat disappointed by her reaction to his other self.
"Wait! That's not what I mean. I mean you… you," she paused trying to find the words. "You are beautiful."
He looked at her in astonishment. "Please, don't joke about something so serious."
"Hey," she leaned closer and reached her hand to his cheek. "I am youkai and I know a good looking youkai male when I see one."
Hakkai flinched as her hand gently brushed his cheek. For somewhere, deep inside his middle, fire blazed brightly to life. He caught her hand in his and brought it to his lips, kissing it gently. "That's nice to hear. I am glad someone doesn't think I am repulsive this way."
She blushed again as his warm lips brushed her hand. Heat pooled in her center and spread to her limbs. Her body tinged with awareness as his smooth lips glided over the back of her hand. She gasped softly as his sharp teeth nipped at her fingertips.
"Hakkai," she softly whispered as she leaned into his chest and placed a gentle kiss against his cheek. "You should not apologize for what you are. Maybe you are different now than you were before, but don't ever be sorry for being alive."
He lowered his mouth to taste her lips. They looked too inviting for him not to sample the fullness. His lower body tightened with arousal. The situation was quickly getting out of hand, but he wanted it to go on just a little longer
Yaone leaned away quickly as she realized his intent. This was becoming dangerous. "I am sorry Hakkai – but I am Lord Kougaiji's servant. I promised to follow him to the ends of the earth."
Hakkai had the grace to look offended. "I'm not asking for betrayal or anything." He grasped her upper arms lightly and pulled her ear toward his mouth. "Just one kiss Yaone, that's all I am asking you for. Just one kiss between friends," he breathed into her ear.
Yaone leaned back as far as he would allow so she could look into his eyes. "We're suddenly… friends?"
"Acquaintances… maybe?" He countered reaching out to let one sharp nail trace the outline of her lips.
Yaone shook her head again and leaned farther away. This was becoming difficult. For all of her excuses, she desperately wanted to say, yes. She shook her head again.
Finally exasperated he ground out, "O.K then… Enemies?"
"No, I don't think that's what we are either." This was a very bad idea, she thought, but on some level she wanted to kiss him. "If we really need a reason, how about simple curiosity?" She whispered, sliding toward him, placing her small hands against his chest.
He lowered his lips to hers, and let them glide over the fullness. His tongue gently traced the outline of her red mouth seeking entrance to the moist depths that lay just out of reach. Yaone sighed against his lips and relaxed, it was all the encouragement he needed. His tongue deftly slipped inside her mouth to mate with hers. His blood sang as if it were alive. One hand tangled in her hair and the other crushed her to him, needing to feel her body pressed closed to his.
She wrestled mentally with herself for a few moments. "I can't betray Lord Kougaiji like this – what would he say if he were to appear and find me with Hakkai?" She whimpered as Hakkai's arms wrapped around her slender frame and pulled her closer to his heat. "But what am I to him but a servant?"
Hakkai let his control slip a notch. Yaone felt good in his arms. Her lips and tongue were warm and wet against his. With each stroke of his tongue, her body relaxed against his. He allowed his hands to crush against her full breasts. His tongue traced a path to her ears where he snipped at the small lobes. "Yaone…" he whispered, punctuating his soft plea with another small nip.
Yaone was at war with herself. Her body was on fire and her mind was a twisted mass of confusion. "Why should I let an enemy have this affect on me?" Fire pooled in her center. She blushed brightly as she felt the heated moisture dampen the cloth between her legs. Her breath came in sharp gasps as Hakkai kissed his way from her mouth to her ear and down the size of her throat. As he nipped encouragingly at the small lobes of her ears, she started slightly, forgetting that his teeth were as sharp as any other youkai. She gasped again as he whispered her name.
"Yaone, god, you feel good, all woman, all warm and so inviting…" she gasped softly again as his hands kneaded her breasts, his thumbs flicking against her hardened nipples. When had he freed them from her clothing? His mouth was on hers again, claiming her lips in a searing kiss as her body strained against his of its own accord, instinctively trying to get closer, wanting something… needing something.
She could feel his hardness through the material of his pants, whimpering as his tongue traced a path to the top of her collar bone and placed a row of small kisses along the lines, delicately sucking and biting at her tender skin. The fire burned hotter. His hand slid between her legs, seeking the warmth of her center. His long fingers traced the outline of her nether lips through the material, stroking the fires in her to a higher level.
Hakkai slowly pulled her to the ground until she was lying partially on top of his chest. He continued to kiss her mouth, ravaging the sweetness. Her nipples were hardened nubs and with each stroke of his thumbs, Yaone gasped softly against his mouth. Her hands were splayed against his chest, kneading the muscles through the loose material of his shirt. Hakkai felt his control slip another notch as he fought to undo the button and zipper on his pants. His erection had made his pants too tight. He was heavy with arousal and wanted to feel her soft hands caress his hard length. He caught one of her hands and lowered it to his erection. She tried to jerk away, but he held her close and whispered encouragement. His large hand closed over hers as he showed her the movements. Feeling suddenly bold, she tightened her grasp on his erection and stroked it from tip to base, slightly scratching the length with her sharp nails, drawing another groan of pleasure from his lips.
"Yaone," he gasped, "I want you, all of you…" He rolled over and pinned her partially beneath his body. His hands slipped inside her panties, his fingers parting her nether lips, seeking the hot moisture waiting there. One finger slipped inside her tight channel, testing the tightness there. He was surprised to find a barrier to his questing fingers. He was pleased to know that he would be the first to claim what she was offering. He worried the sensitive nubbin of flesh with a sharp nail, causing her body to jerk against his. His mouth was everywhere at once, her lips her cheeks, he trailed kisses along her collar bone. He reached up and pushed her breasts together, eagerly nipping at both nipples ot once. His lips tasted her milky white skin and he smiled in pleasure she surged against him, whimpering with need.
Yaone for her part felt the last of her inhibitions slip away. She was going to die in the arms of Lord Kougaiji's enemy and she did not care. Hakkai's kisses became more savage, as with a sharp snarl, his teeth snapped closed on her skin. He growled savagely, placing small bites along her torso as his hands became more insistent. Yaone struggled up through the haze of passion. His eyes suddenly frightened her. Gone was the gentle man she had come to secretly like. He looked wild somehow, and oh so savage. "Hakkai, please, not so rough." She pushed at his chest with both hands.
He grasped her hands and pinned them above her head. "What's the matter Yaone-Chan, don't you want me. He smiled evilly down into her face. "I can't believe that Kougaiji left you untouched, but I won't make that mistake." His head dipped to her lips again and claimed them in a savage kiss. He forced her legs apart and lay between them, pumping his hips against hers. He smiled cruelly down at her, "Think of what it will feel like in just a minute when I am buried inside you Yaone. Won't that be fun?"
Yaone gasped and pleaded with him, "Hakkai, please stop," she pushed frantically at his chest. "Stop, you're hurting me, Hakkai, you're not yourself." "STOP!" she screamed and with a huge effort she managed to bring her knees between their bodies and pushed upward with all her might. Hakkai growled low in his throat and stepped toward her; reaching out with sharp claws.
"Hakkai, I said STOP!" Yaone shouted as she slapped his face as hard as she could.
Hakkai looked startled, the wildness suddenly gone from his eyes. Yaone heaved and clutched her top to her chest, waiting for his reaction. "Yaone," he whispered as he gaped at her disheveled appearance and at the small bite marks along her collar bone. He reached out with a hurt look on his face, "Please, are you all right? Did I hurt you, please Yaone, I'm sorry, so sorry."
Yaone quickly stepped away from him. Her voice was thin and shaky, the words coming out in a jumbled rush, "I'm… umm … I can't stay. I've got to go, please don't come any closer ok, I never should have asked you to see you like this please I've got to go…" and with those words, she quickly vanished into the fog.
Hakkai shook his head sadly. He had ruined what little chance he may have had with her. He pulled the limiters from his pocket and clipped them back on his ear. He stood silently as his human form reasserted control. He should have known better. All of his senses were heightened without the limiters so why shouldn't a sex be the same.
Sighing slightly, he straightened his clothes and started walking back in the direction of camp. He had to find a way to make amends with Yaone. Whatever she was to him, she still did not deserve the treatment he had given her.
