"Muso what the hell are you doing here?" Sesshomaru asked trying to calm

himself down.

"I came here because I heard Rylie and her family moved here. I was

trying to get them to move back to their own home. They do not

belong here, or around our kind. So they're the protectors' so what,

they still do not belong around us." Muso yelled pointing a finger

at me and my family as they came into view.

"I don't know who gave you the idea that I needed your help for

anything, but Rylie is my mate and her family is my family. You

attacked my new family, you need to leave and never darken my

doorway again." Sesshomaru yelled, he turned and looked at my arm and I

could see pure rage flare in his eyes, I knew what he thought. I

grabbed his arm as he was about to attack a retreating Muso.

"Sesshomaru don't, I got this injury not from Muso but from training with

Koga. Bankotsu couldn't heal it at the time because he was stuck in

the bush again." I said, Bankotsu came up beside me and healed my

arm.

"He didn't hurt you though" he asked, he put his hands on my

shoulders as I shook my head. "Good" he said, he headed straight for

the house, I followed closely behind him. We had to go back to our

classes tomorrow, and I knew Kikyo's friends' heard about Kikyo's death

by now and were very angry.

Sesshomaru was not sure how Muso became so bitter, but he knew he had

to watch over me more closely now. Sesshomaru began to watch over me, he

even had our schedules changed again that way he could be with me

all the time. Every time I turned around Sesshomaru was there watching me,

it annoyed me at first, but I understood, and it made me happy that

he cared for me so much. Rumors started flying around the school

that I was easy and a complete bitch, I knew who started the rumors,

Kikyo's friends', but I was not worried about them.

One morning, I was walking through the hallway, and I could hear

Kagura and Yura talking to a group of guys that hung around the

school. I stopped before I turned the corner and listened at the

plans they were making.

"I want you guys to attack Rylie Tanaka when she is alone. Do

whatever you want to her, rape her, beat her, kill her, or all

three. We do not care just hurt her, if you do that, you guys can

have our bodies" Kagura said, I shivered. I walked away, before the

guys gave these crazy girls their answer. I walked past the music

room, I saw Sesshomaru walking into a teacher's office down the hall, and

he disappeared. My brothers were surrounded by girls as usual.

Suddenly I was very aware that I was being followed, I watched as

Sesshomaru came out of the teachers office. I was saved this time, I

thought to myself.

"Hey Sesshomaru" I called; I heard the footsteps behind me retreat; Sesshomaru

rushed to my side when he heard a little distress in my voice.

"What's wrong Rylie?" Sesshomaru said, I glanced over my shoulder and then

back at him. I couldn't hide anything from him so I decided to tell

him the truth. He looked very enraged; he put his arm around my

waist in a protective way and walked with me to his truck.

"No one will dare to touch you, I promise" Sesshomaru said, we drove home,

I went straight to my room while Sesshomaru told my family what happened.

I stared out my window, suddenly there was a group of shadows in

front of the house, I looked closer and I realized these men were

the same ones Kagura and Yura were talking to earlier that day.

The men looked up and watched me, I felt a strong arm go around me,

I shrieked. Sesshomaru turned me around until I was facing him, I looked

at him, and I threw myself into his arms and held onto him tightly.

Alan wrapped his arms around me; we stayed that way for a long

while. When we finally let go of each other, I sat down on the edge

of my bed, Sesshomaru knelt down and put his hands on my thighs trying to

comfort me. We sat there for a while not saying anything. Finally I

lifted Sesshomaru's face to mine and kissed him, I held on to him as

tightly as possible. Sesshomaru's hands started to move up and down my

back, I shivered at the intimate contact, I wanted Sesshomaru to take me

but I knew he wouldn't at least not while I was upset. Sesshomaru stood up

pushing me on my back, he leaned over me, and he stared into my eyes

looking for something.

"Rylie, we are not doing this now. We will wait until the threat to

you is over and gone." He said, he turned and left the room.

I could tell he didn't want to leave me like that, but if he

didn't we would not have stopped ourselves. I had to laugh to

myself, who knew a demon could have morals. I fell asleep, but I

was woken up by the tree scratching on my window. I couldn't stay in

my bedroom by myself anymore, so I got up I could have put some

clothes on but I didn't feel like it.
