Chapter 7

Week 7

Botan had just been declared well enough to be moved back to her room a few hours ago and now as Aya set her up she knew it was time to talk about the kiss. It had been a mistake she made while on some drugs. She really liked Aya very much, but she wasn't in love with him and being as he was in a very dangers job there was no way he could be there for her and the king everyday. She had a baby to think about too and being selfish now wouldn't do. She tried to smile as he tucked her into bed and checked her IV. He seemed a bit on edge as he looked over everything one more time. "Aya I wanted to say I'm sorry about the other day" He smiled down at her putting the clipboard down in his lap he whispered.

"I know Botan you were under the spell of some drugs. It happens a lot… You know even a few men have kissed me and asked me to marry them under that drugs position and they had wives." They both smiled and laughed a little as Aya got up to leave. He stopped to look at her while with a somewhat uneasy stare. She know in her heart what he was about to say would change her life forever. He whispered "Hiei saw you kiss me and the woods outside have never been thinner if you catch my drifted." It was easy to catch his drifted; any fool who know Hiei a little bit would have catch that real quickly.

"Is he really mad?" She asked looking over to the covered windows. They were covered to make shore it wasn't to bright in the room for her. She hadn't seen Hiei scene Aya told him to hide. Nor had she heard one single word form him in her head. She was beginning to worry he might have left her, because she kept reaching out to Aya. She knew in the back of her mind it would upset him; but Aya was always calm and Hiei was...well Hiei. There was no getting around it he just had this way about it that made a person to scared to lean on him unless he made you lean on him. Witch also felt odd and kind of scary because you never know when he was going to turn on you.

"Well let me put it this why, he wants to skin me like a cat. I've just bray been able to keep him for doing just that, by talking about your heath and the babies." Aya sat down next to her taking hold of her hand he whispered. "Do you know he stopped sleeping after the pixie incident" She looked into his eyes to see he wasn't lying. All she could think was somehow Hiei thought he had screwed up by sleeping that morning and now he was punishing himself for it. "An I don't think he's eaten scene you got you appendix out." This worried her farther she know Hiei to be a very loyal man to the people he demand worthily. "You got to do something about it or by the time baby is here, Hiei won't be."

"What do I do though? I mean Hiei doesn't listen to me, he demands I sit down shut up and do what he tells me without question…So how I could I help him?" She asked trying to sit up, but finding it hard. Her side still hurt form time to time, but it was nothing she couldn't handle. The room filled with empty silica as they both thought on what to do.

"Why don't you give him the mating mark?" Aya said finely and Botan just stared at him with a 'what's that look' Aya smiled explaining to her the joys of giving a mating mark, but not receiving one. "So you see if you give him one he'll be yours. He'll be like a husband on all terms of the word, but you'll be as free as a bird. Hiei will spend the rest of his time on this earth doing one thing and one thing only. Trying too get you to let him give you the mark. Because he'll need you're promising to do it and being as you're the free one you can mark as many males as you see fit. You could start your own version of a Harem. It will kind of be like owning a pet that wants you to be its pet too. Not the most flattering way to put it I guess, but at lest you'll be able to have some amount of control over the man." Aya said getting up off the bed. Botan made a slight face that said she wasn't sure about this. "Just think about ok" She said ok and he left her alone to think about what it would be like to 'Own' Hiei.

Later that night

She heard the window open as Hiei stepped into the room. The man looked tired and hungry as he walked towards her bed. Slowly he reach out a hand to touch her belly, but pulled it away quickly when Akane mumbled in her sleep. He seemed to be on a very dangers edge as he stud before her. Sitting up Botan slide her feet out form under the covers. She took hold of his hand and pulled him towards her so she could run her noise along his neck. She whispered softly in his ear. "It's week sever Hiei our you going to link to the kodomo yet?" She knew this might cheer him up some, it had been one of the so called rights he had to the child. To her astonishment he said 'no' as if he had decided he didn't deserve it or something. Aya's words creep across her mind like sticking a knife into an open wound. She took a deep breathe pulling down word on Hiei jacket to by pass his white scarf, finding it to be to in the way she removed it. Hiei didn't even try to touch her he just stud there like he was made of stone.

She made sure she had the right side; witch was his left before she leaded forwards to licking the spot Aya had indicated as the creaked spot. His hands seemed to fly up around her pulling her even closer to him. She know she had found it on her first try, she licked, nibbled and sucked at it to see if Hiei would change his mood. His breathing got heaver and his touch more frantic, but nothing else. Taking one more deep breathe she dug her teeth into his skin and were one might scream out in pain, Hiei began to purr up a storm. Nuzzling her chest and belly almost like a kitten would do when it wanted attention. As his new owner Botan had her self a little test drive. "Link with the kodomo" She whispered. With out even putting up a fight he got to his knee's, put one hand and his head on her belly and began to make the link. After what seemed like hours he licked her belly and then got to his feet. She took that as an 'it's all done' "Good now get undressed and come to bed I beat." Her second odder did go over so easily. She just gave this look that said NEVER! Making her feel slightly angry with him as she had too get up and remove his cloths. He didn't try to stop her but when she pulled him toward the bed he dug his heels in the floor refusing to budge.

Leaning down to his new mark she nipped it chasing a little sprat. Hiei growled at her, but initially got in bed. She ended up having to move around the bed and him to make sure he didn't sleep on her IV. That would be the next thing getting him to eat something, but first she had to get him to sleep. He just laid there with his arms crossed over his chest and glaring at the ceiling. Once she was all settled in he cuddled up to her purring again. Slowly he moved up to her neck to lick at the spot he would give her the mark at. However she had other plans, pushing him away she whispered "Go to sleep Hiei" He seemed upset with her, but moved back to her belly and to her relieve he fell asleep.

'Grate now I am the prude now owner of a Hiei' She thought as sleep over took her. She had strange dreams of walking him like a dog, feeding him dog food, getting him a dog bed and yes even yelling at him for making pee pee in the corner. Needless to say some part of her didn't like the feeling of owning another person and this was it's way of telling her just that.
