Chapter 12

"Are You My Weakness?"

InuYasha Knew that Sesshomaru was going to go berserk the moment Kagome tried to leave, and he was right the Inu lord was transforming in to his true form. This did not bode well for them he knew he would not be able to control Sesshomaru in his true form. Kagome, he knew, didn't know what was going on or how to stem the situation from turning deadly. He was going to try to make sure that everything got better he was not going to allow Kagome to loose a chance at true love because of her stubbornness.

Inu's mated for life and now that Sesshomaru's beast if not Sesshomaru him self had claimed the girl. InuYasha knew that in order for the Taiyoukai to allow his beast to take over he had to have some kind of feelings for Kagome. He also knew that for Kagome to give up her virginity that she had to feel something for Sesshomaru, and though for years he had longed to be her one and only InuYasha knew now that he was right never to act upon his feelings the fates had intended more for her than he could provide.

And now with Sesshomaru about to transform into his true form he knew for sure that though he had a place in her life it would never and had never been intended that he be by her side and father of her pups.

"KAGOME" InuYasha yelled watching a she whirled around her face going from furious to astonished.

"WHAT?" she yelled back as she turned.

Sesshomaru was slowly turning his markings were becoming jagged; his hair shaggier, his claws longer and his skin was starting to get fuzzy.

"If you leave Sesshomaru will go into a killing rage. Go to him an he will calm"

She eyed the hanyou dubiously.

"Please Kagome his instincts are telling him to keep you here, near him at all costs"

He watched as something passed over her face, though not knowing what it was he watched as she walked slowly to the Inu lord.

She stood with in arms length of Sesshomaru, weary of going further. Kagome stood there looking in to the eyes of the Taiyoukai and for a moment she felt regret that she even slept with him, that she allowed herself that one moment of weakness. Then suddenly she was in Sesshomaru's arms his face buried in her neck breathing in her scent.

Sesshomaru Felt himself calm the moment she was in his arms, his beast receded as her earthy clean scent filled his nostrils. He prided himself on his control and he had lost it like a young pup, this was completely intolerable he Sesshomaru an Inu Taiyoukai of over a thousand years could not act like he was a teenager. However much he loathed it he did not regret whom was chosen to be his mate, she was perfect for him. It was not going to be easy to allow her to leave his side but he knew she would just resent him if she was not able to go. He would allow her time to get used to it, though she wasn't marked and could still break the bond between them, he would still give her time to adjust.

"Stay" he pleaded "Just for tonight, the bond is too new for me to control my beast if you try to leave again" his whispered words were for her ears only. He felt her tense for a moment before she relaxed, he let out a breath he hadn't even realised he was holding.

"Okay" she whispered back in to his elegantly pointed ear.

Looking up Sesshomaru noticed that the hanyou was no where in sight. I was just as well, his beast saw him as competition and though sometimes it was fun to try and hurt InuYasha killing him would not be a good idea. Glancing down at the girl in his arms he realized that he truly didn't want to let her go, there was more to his feelings than he realized even if he really didn't want to look to deep.

She was alive, for the first time in over five hundred years Kouga's heart awakened with the knowledge that his first true love was here, alive. Tomorrow he would go to the address that Shippo had supplied him, he didn't know what he was going to do it had been so long and he was not the young guileless wolf he used to be. He was different now, he was old and he felt it, felt it with his entire body he didn't want that he wanted her to see him the way he used to be.

The care free wolf he was the one who was always saying that she was his woman.

But people change and grow and live and mature, and only sometimes do they actually remember the people who made them who they are.

The years after Kagome's supposed death were the hardest on him it had been nearly ten years before he let him self feel again and another ten before he let Ayame into his heart. He had loved Ayame dearly though they had had their problems and every once and a while the arguments got pretty bad, and those were usually over the kids. Kouga loved Kagome still but he wasn't sure where he stood, actually he was never sure of where he stood in her affections, after he had met her she was always with that dog breath InuYasha and he knew she had loved him with all her heart. What if she didn't want to see him what if he was always just a charity case to her, what if she was just always nice to him because she was a nice person?

These thoughts were getting him nowhere and he was not going to go another five hundred years with out at least saying good bye to her, or something all he knew was that he needed to see her he needed closure at the very least before he moved on. His thoughts were complicated, mixed up and though he didn't know what he was going to do he trusted Kami to figure things out.

The day had started off good for him, finding out that his pseudo mother was still alive made his heart sing with joy. Just finding out that Sesshomaru had claimed said pseudo mother as his mate was rather disturbing. That was the one union that he never expected, surely InuYasha would have been her first pick or even Kouga, just not Sesshomaru.

These things were completely weirding Shippo out, his pseudo father in law and his pseudo mother. Rin was going to flip, in a good way he hoped, when she heard the news, she had always loved Kagome and even missed her after her supposed death. Now that they knew that she was alive every one had different feelings about the situation, Shippo knew that there was going to be a lot of shit hitting the fan over the next few days and though he still wanted to see his "Mother" he didn't want anyone else to be around when he did, he had been hit hard when they thought she was dead.

Things were going to be very different all this and they still had to figure out what was going on with Sesshomaru's blackmailer. That situation was something else entirely, Shippo had been working on it for a while but because of whom he was connected to he was getting no where with his questioning. Which is why Sesshomaru had hired a private investigator, whom Shippo hadn't found out who she was yet. He didn't get it, it shouldn't be that hard to find out her background find out who she was but there was nothing her name brought up absolutely nothing. Normally that wouldn't have bothered him he would have just dug deeper but there was nothing he just needed a few more days and he might find what he needed than again, maybe not.

There was a reason behind everything that had been going on with Sesshomaru hopefully there would soon be answers, because things were going down hill from what he could tell.

Pleasure coursed though his body as he pounded into the hooker beneath him, her screams of pain had long since been silenced as he brought himself to climax. Dante always did his best thinking like this, the scent of death around him, the scent of his arousal permeating the air. He now knew how to get back at the Inu lord he now knew his weakness.

Pulling out of the dead girls body Dante headed for the shower, he felt refreshed felt content for the moment. His attack on the human girl and Sesshomaru yielded such wonderful information he thought he would pee his pants, well nothing quite so undignified but still. Soon very soon everything would be in place for him to commence his plan.
