A/N: I am so sorry that it has taken my five months to update. But I really needed to think about what I wanted from this story and I decided to make it a violent, romance-comedy. I also added and deleted some things in other chapters, so you will need to reread it…
I have also added chapters on to my stories Beautiful Things and Techno Dreams… so go take a look!

Chapter 5
Lovers Spat
Sesshomaru watched Kagome and her admirers from the corner of his eye. He is attempting to look disinterested, but the task is hard to accomplish when other demons are sniffing around his reluctant Intended. Yes… Sesshomaru is ready to admit, at least to himself, that he wants Kagome; whether it is to strangle her or make love to her, he wants Kagome. So the appearance of other male is greatly unappreciated on Sesshomaru's part.
First, there is Hoshiomi; leader of the Demon Ninja's. He's been staring at Kagome all night! Not only is Hoshiomi powerful in his own right, but he is also the only one that Kagome has an outward affection for. So… he is a definite threat to Sesshomaru's claim.
Lord Koga is next. Though he has yet to say a word to Kagome, the new leader of the wolf demon tribes, has talked about her all night. Anyone with ears can tell that Koga is itching to get close Kagome; and not in a 'friendly' type of way…
And last… there is the teme, Inuyasha. He's been making dreamy eyes at Kagome all night as well. Inuyasha, as far as Sesshoumaru is concerned, is not a threat at all; he's just irked by the fool's interest in Kagome. Hell, even the law is on Sesshomaru's side in this case. By right, Sesshomaru must mate BEFORE Inuyasha and he has the first choice over any single female in his father's domain…. Yeah, that shit head, Inuyasha, never had a chance to begin with.
Sesshomaru's eyes shifted from his competitors to solely look at Kagome. She presents his biggest problem. He cannot court her is she will not let him near her… there is only one word that can describe this situation and it SAD. Sesshomaru sighed and attempted to go back to his musings when an idea suddenly found its way into his head.
…………
"The idiocy must run within my blood line…" Toga thought out loud as he gazed at his 'dummy' sons. He tried to deny it and hoped that it could be just a coincidence that their mothers could have been stupid, but it is not; the only thing the boys share is his blood. Sighing heavily, Toga noticed the looks on his sons' faces. One is leering at poor Kagome, and the other one just looks love stricken.
Myoga, who chose to stand on Toga, became puzzled by his master's sudden rambling. "Idiocy, milord?"
"Oh, hello Myoga… and yes, idiocy." He pointed to each one of his sons. "Can you not see the disaster brewing?" Asked Toga.
"Ah… is that the young lady that they both desire?" Myoga asked as he followed the brothers' line of sight. "She is beautiful, indeed." He replied. "But I don't see where a problem could start?"
Toga threw Myoga a questioning look. "You don't? Well… keep watching, my friend, things are about to liven up a bit. I can feel it…"
…………
Kagome looked longing out at the garden, she wanted to take a walk so badly and being in a room full of morons didn't exactly help her situation. Kami, its times like this that she wished that she was a male… why… her parents would never let her walk alone in the presents of all of these male. DAMN it to HELL, she mental screamed. Sighing, Kagome decided to go back to what she was doing; ignoring everyone. Well… not Sango, but she is currently busy being a traitor at the moment.
Before they even took their seats, a group of males rushed them; asking their father for permission to dance with them. Of course, Jin knows to turn down all offers for Kagome, but Sango displayed a rather hopeful look when the monk asked their father for the pleasure of dancing with her.
Kagome groaned as her mind took her into unwanted places… kami, please let this night be over soon.
…………
Jin watched Kagome and her four admires with a sort of sick amusement. As a matter of fact, he rather enjoyed their discomfort because most of their efforts to get his daughter are all for not…
Inuyasha. If not for the laws of this domain and his 'somewhat' dislike for hanyous at the moment, he would actually consider him as a possible husband for Kagome. He seems like good man… but that's not always a good reason. And what of Jin's dislike for hanyous… his sister Kikyo was reportedly killed by one.
Hoshiomi; has been staring at Kagome all night. Despite Kagome's feelings for the handsome demon; Jin will not accept a suite from the demon nor will Hoshiomi approach Kagome while he is around. Why the flat out refusal? To make a long story short, Hoshiomi is looking to replace his dead lover… and Jin refuses to let Kagome BE that replacement.
Lord Koga. There is not much to consider. He has been eyeing both girls all night. Still… he would make a strong political match for Kagome; and that alone is enough to make Jin consider his suite, if he should offer one.
Sesshomaru. He would bring strength and political power to their house should he be matched with Kagome. Jin would no doubt accept Sesshomaru's off… but there is a problem. According to Toga, Sesshomaru and Kagome fight constantly…
Jin stopped thinking and ran his fingers through his hair; that always relaxes him. But he stopped when he heard a rustle of silk behind him.
"Jin-sama?"
Ah… speak of the devil. "Why, hello Sesshomaru. What can I do for you this fine evening?" Jin asked while ignoring Kagome's pointed glare.
Sesshomaru smirked at Kagome's childish antic. She can't get away this time. He completely figured out how to MAKE Kagome spend time with him. Bowing slightly, Sesshomaru addressed his question. "I would like to take Kagome out to the gardens for a walk." He replied. "May I have your permission Jin-sama?"
"Of course." Jin replied; again ignoring Kagome's protest. "You will bring her back before it is time to retire."
"Indeed." Sesshomaru held out his hand for Kagome to take. "… 'MY' Lady?"
And the nightmare begins…
sssssssss
"Kami, the stars are so beautiful at night!" Somewhere in the excitement of being outside, Kagome had completely forgotten that Sesshomaru is walking by her side. "I've wanted to take a walk all day!"
Sesshomaru closed his eyes, for a moment, to revel in the new found peace that he is having with Kagome. He had expected Kagome to, at least, complain about having to be with him; but she didn't. Instead, Kagome randomly talked about things that interest her. "Your wish came true, then?" Sesshomaru asked; finally joining the conversation.
Kagome stopped and glared at the person that broke the peaceful silence. "I guess so…" She shrugged her shoulders. "At a price." She turned and started walking back down the pathway.
"Is my company so horrible!" Sesshomaru bristled. "Has this not been a pleasant walk?"
"I'd rather not find out what type of company you make." With that Kagome continue
Sesshomaru smirked. Still trying to get away from me, Kagome; he thought. He quickly grabbed Kagome by the shoulders and turned her around to face him. "You will not…."
And their eyes locked on to each other…
Not wanting to ruin the mood that the gods so graciously provided him with, Sesshomaru carefully pulled Kagome closer to his body into a tight embrace.
Kagome couldn't think. Sesshomaru pulled her so close to his body that she could feel the rise and fall of his chest. And his lips seem to be getting closer with each moment. Kagome closed her eyes in an attempt to focus, but she still couldn't. By the time she opened her eyes again, Sesshomaru had closed the gap and pressed his soft lips to hers.
Some would consider this to be a dream of a first kiss, but not Kagome. She has some issues with Sesshomaru kissing her. First, she can't even stand the ground that he walks on. Second, he's a pompous Asshole. Yeah… for this, Kagome is about to show Sesshomaru a meaning to the phrase 'pitch a bitch'.
…………
After Sesshomaru took Kagome out to the gardens, the air in the party seem to somewhat lessen in its density. All factors considered, it is a lovely party…
All was well… that is until the guest were interrupted by a shrill scream followed by list of foul words and insults.
"Ahh…. You INSANE PUPPY! What in the HELL are you doing? I don't want your SLOBBER on me!"
Toga choked on the dink that he just swallowed. Kagome is not his child but he would know her voice anywhere.
"I DON'T slobber and YOU ARE INSANE. You should be happy that I even bestowed you with that GIFT!"
At the sound of the arguing couple, Jin nearly fell out of his chair. If anything, this situation sounds like a case of 'the first kiss gone wrong'.
"Oh… then I should thank you for that NIGHTMARISH experience? I assure you, it is an event that I will ALWAYS try and FORGET. Next time, try kissing one of your MAID-WHORES, because I would rather kiss someone's FAT ASS than kiss you again!"
Sakura looked around the room nervously; she really wanted a place to hide. This is just too embarrassing. Damn, she thought, there's nowhere to go. In that case, Sakura settled for making Jin fix the situation. "Jin, are you going to go stop them?"
"I have no NEED for whores. Once you SUBMIT to ME, I will be able to BED you ANYTIME I like. YOU WILL BE MY BITCH!"
"NOT LIKELY! Plus, you're a big enough BITCH for the both of us. Leave me alone SHIT FACE!"
The servants had told Inuyasha of Sesshomaru and Kagome's verbal spats, but this is way over the top. Nevertheless, he decided to go and help Kagome; to show that he cared, but his father stopped him.
"No, I will take care of this." Toga sighed. This is excitement, just not the kind that he is looking for.
"DISIST your incessant DEFIANCE! SUBMIT to me! NOW!"
"NO. I, Kagome, would never submit to another BITCH…but" Kagome began to take the top layers of her kimono off. "I would really like to know why you are so riled up. Has your Cycle come? OR is it pent up sexual frustration. I know plenty of MEN that would help you out!"
Up until this point Sango had remained clam… now that Kagome has insulted Sesshomaru's status as a man, there will be hell to pay. Sango quickly bolted from Miroku's grasp and headed towards the garden.
"DO. AS. I. SAY!"
"NEVER!"
At that moment, Sesshomaru lost control and attacked Kagome.
…………
As Jin ran to the garden, he could hear Kagome insult Sesshomaru's manhood… not very wise. Why? Well… now Sesshomaru had the right to prove his sexual status to the accuser… and how will he do this…. That part is self explanatory…. And if Kagome refuses…. Sesshomaru will have the right to punish her, but nothing extreme. Kami, Kagome is as thick headed as his brother was!
Right before Sesshomaru could start spilling blood, Toga arrived. "Sesshomaru, stop this!" His request fell on def ears.
Sesshomaru's claws ran across Kagome's are drawing the first blood of the match.
Kagome answered the insult but running her sword across Sesshomaru's back.
This pattern of behavior, blow for blow action, continued until everything suddenly went black. Kagome and Sesshomaru simultaneously fell to the ground out cold.
sssssssss
The next evening…. Kagome woke up in a room that is not her own. In fact, the clothes did not belong to her either; and the garments looked like sleepwear. "Where am I?" She thought out loud.
Sango looked at Sakura nervously. She wanted to tell Kagome to run, so badly, but the words would not leave her mouth. Instead, she waited for Sakura to answer Kagome's question.
"You are in Sesshomaru's room, Kagome." She really hated to do this but she has always told Kagome that her mouth would get her into trouble someday. "Do you remember anything about last night?"
"No… wait… I remember Sesshomaru tackling me." Kagome replied.
Sakura finished folding up Kagome's change of clothes and kneeled beside the futon. "Well… you, my dear, had a very busy night. Sango, please have a maid bring us some tea. It looks like we all need to have a talk about life."
…………
"Why have you called me in here?" He asked his father. Sesshomaru woke up hours ago to the jesting of his sexuality. That bitch will pay, he thought darkly.
"I called you here." Jin walked up and put a hand on Sesshomaru's shoulder. "I wanted to apologize for Kagome attacks on you and explain your rights under my customs for this infraction."
"Hn… my rights?"
"Yes, boy, your rights." Toga confirmed. "Jin would like to make amends for Kagome's actions and requested that you exercise the option of his homelands. Do you accept?"
Sesshomaru thought for a moment. "First tell me what my options are."
Jin smiled. "There are no options. The law states that the offended will have a chance to redeem themselves; and the offender must confirm it. You have been accused of being a woman; so you will need to prove, sexually, that you are indeed a man."
"And how will complete the task? She has nearly ruined my reputation with other women." Sesshomaru replied.
"I understand, and this is where my offer becomes personal. As much as it pains me to do so… you will have the right to 'redeem' yourself 'with' Kagome, and if she refuses you… she will receive a punishment and she will still make a public apology. Do you accept?" Asked Jin.
A real smile found its way onto Sesshomaru's face. "Yes, are there any rules that I must abide by as well?"
Jin nodded, and they spent the rest of the afternoon talking about the do's and don'ts of this deal…
…………
"I WHAT!" Kagome couldn't believe her ears.
"I'm sorry Kagome, but that is your father's offer. Even if you make your mind up to just take the punishment, you must stay the night in this room with Sesshomaru." Sakura explained.

So, how is Kagome gonna get out of this one…?
