Six years ago

It was entirely his fault Kenya concluded in her mind. The way his golden eyes shifted towards her in the board room. The way he refused to glance at anyone else but her. The very scent of him drove her wild.

It also didn't help matters that her assistant, Rin kept ogling the man ever chance she got.

But these were things Kenya couldn't even begin to focus on. Clawed fingers ran up and down her spine teasingly. Drawing her in. Sharp teeth nipped at her neck, intending to mark the woman. She held back the gasp as his expert hands moved to unzip her dress, pooling the fabric on the floor. She made mental note to yell at the man. That dress was a damn fortune.

"Keep quiet. Or I'll have to make you." His cold voice lingered near her ear as he pulled away to unzip his trousers. Kenya narrowed her violet eyes at him. Livid.

"Oh really? YOU'RE the one that is merging with MY business. That means I own forty-five percent of this company. I can be as loud as I damn well please, Mr. Taisho." She spoke his last name with a purr and almost cackled at the anger she saw flash through his eyes.

How did they even get here? One minute, Kenya was in a board room with Sesshomaru, his brother and their assistants. They were discussing on a possible merger with Kenya's company. The next minute, Kenya was pushed into Sesshomaru's office, kissing and biting him feverishly.

From the things that Kenya has read about him, Sesshomaru is a cold-hearted CEO who would trample over people whom he thought were lesser than him. His company wouldn't be in the top ten highest stock ratings without doing so.

Kenya knew who she was dealing with. She wouldn't be in the same business with him and not know him. It would be ignorant. But she never thought he had an interest in her. Nor did she think that of him. He was a competitor. Someone to extinguish. She hated how mighty he thought he was. Walked around as if everyone was lesser than him. Which in essence, was mostly true. His corporation ran in the billions.

But now? Now she was bent over his desk, naked, her claws digging into the mahogany as he fucked her like it was the last day on earth.

The surprising part of all of this, was not that it was actually happening to either of them. It was the fact that even though it was the crudest way of sex, Sesshomaru seemed to be taking care of her. Holding onto her delicately as he thrusted into her. Her small moans echoed in his office. Trailing kisses down her spine, Kenya seemed to be moaning his name and not an incoherent babble like she's done before. His forehead came to rest on her shoulder as he murmured his affection for her body. How beautiful her curves were. How the scar underneath her shoulder-blade made her seem like a warrior. How the small beads of sweat that ran down her back tasted sweeter than salt would taste.

She didn't want to understand. Was he like this with everyone, or was it just the heat of the argument that happened in the room? Kenya didn't want to know. She just didn't want him to stop.

Eventually, all good things come to an end. Their act ended abruptly as a knock on his office door had the pair flashing angry red eyes, threatening to expose their true demonic forms. He pulled away from her to fasten the buttons on his shirt and zip up the zipper on his trousers. He all but ignored Kenya as she struggled to zip up the back of her dress.

Their eyes met before he moved to open the door for her. All Kenya could do was stare at him. But it wasn't for longing. It was confusion.

Her unasked question was answered as he moved a hand to caress her cheek. "You're annoying. You are the only woman I have ever met that has been on par with me. I want to know more about you. Don't disappoint me."

Kenya rolled her eyes as she smacked his hand away. "And your ego is bigger than what's in your pants. Now I know why you're an asshole. You're trying to compensate for which you lack." With a wave of her hand, Kenya left the room with a wide smirk and a red-eyed demon in her wake.

Present Day

A small laugh broke Sesshomaru out of his daze from his laptop. His wife lay on her side, curled into him. The pair was laying together on their bed. The woman had fainted earlier and as a precaution from Kagome, was told to be bedridden until they can figure out the source of the problem.

"What's amusing you?" He spoke low into his wife's ear, lingering near her cheek to press a soft kiss there. He was affectionate to her behind closed door. Just because everyone assumed he had a cold heart, didn't mean it truly existed.

Watching Kenya's eyes blink slowly, the woman turned to cast him a playful grin. "Just remembering the first time we made love. You called me annoying."

Sesshomaru nodded his head in remembrance before turning his attention back to his laptop. "I remember. I also remember you saying that I lacked in my pants." After Kenya had left his office, Sesshomaru had his desk thrown into the hallway. Nobody questioned why there were claw marks that were clearly not his. Some things were better left unasked.

Another laugh. "I only said that to get a rise out of you. Literally."

Sesshomaru smirked before closing his laptop and moving it to the side. His hand came down to rest over her bulging stomach. The amusement immediately flew out the window as Kenya winced in pain and breathed in a sharp gasp.

"Would it be better..if I were to die instead of the children?" Her voice came out so soft that Sesshomaru had to strain his ears to hear her. When he did, he snarled loudly down at his wife. His eyes flashing a dangerous blood red.

"Don't say that. Never." Moving his mouth towards her neck, Sesshomaru bit down harshly on her pulse point. Her mate mark. She whined softly in his ear as he drew blood. It wasn't to harm her, but a form of discipline.

"I'm sorry, Mate. But..I can't help but think that it would be better-.."

"It would be wise of you to not finish that sentence." His words were so cold. So unfamiliar in the years they've been together. Kenya wisely shut her mouth as Sesshomaru pulled her to his chest carefully.

"Inuyasha's mate is going to find a cure. Our pups will be born. They will be healthy. And I will kill whoever did this to you."

His promise rang true, and it made Kenya's blood run cold.

Because Sesshomaru Taisho always keeps a promise.

I felt like this chapter could have been so much better. It felt rushed. Terrible. And I DEEPLY apologize if it's a jumbled mess of idiocy.

BUT I NEED HELP NOW.

What should Sesshomaru's business be? Since he's a demon, I figured it would make sense if it had something to do with that. And Kenya is a competitor. Any thoughts or ideas would be GREATLY appreciated!

Anything you guys want to see happen? Leave me a message or a review!

Things you hated? Let me know!

I'll try my hardest to keep you guys interested. But I know for a fact that this chapter could have been better. I just needed to write.
