Too Good to Say No:


Chapter 3:

Over a course of countless weeks, Naraku and I met everywhere we could and the union was always as fresh and new as the last and by union I'm not just talking about our meetings. Each time we met he would ravish my body like there was no tomorrow with a fever that matched the very first time he explored my body. And as he learned more and more things about my sweet spots and what could turn me into a pool of endless desire—while still revisiting the ones he was familiar with—I learned a few things about his body as well. Though I was always free to touch Naraku as I pleased, my mind was always fried by the time Naraku went through his whole routine exploration of my body, to get me hot and ready for him. Come to think of it I had never really explored his body as intimately as he had explored mine.

He practically knew my body better than I did. Pretty sad, huh? Well I was suddenly filled with a compelling urge to explore his body thoroughly and find all of his sweet spots. I wanted to work my hands along his body to the point where he couldn't think of anything but the feel of my hands. I wanted to dominate him for a while, play with him and see how hard I could push his buttons and bend the barrier of his control before he broke and finally took me.

Unlike when he had taken me when I was still an inexperienced virgin where I had little control over myself because I was consumed by my desire, I wanted to be in control and take charge, forcing Naraku to be consumed by his lust, his desire. Just the thought of having Naraku bound beneath me, writhing in ecstasy from my touch sent shivers up my spine. I could feel myself growing wet with the anticipation of meeting Naraku again. I wanted him so bad. I felt dizzy, and it wasn't from the heat of the sun, beating upon my back like a fiery fist; my desire to be held by Naraku was overwhelming. I wanted him to peel my clothes off layer by layer…wait…scratch that.

I would rather have him tear my clothes from my body and ravish me until I couldn't stand, let alone think intelligently. Yeah that sounded like the ideal sexual fantasy, though in this case, Naraku could very well make it a reality. Kami, how did I ever live without him there to ease the fire of my desire? It's a wonder I didn't take to fingering myself around bath time. But then again who needs masturbation, when one had the best sex partner in the world.

Oh Kami, I was turning into a nymphomaniac! All thanks to Naraku, but did I regret my sudden hunger for sex with him? Nah, not in the least bit, in fact I was more comfortable with it than I cared to admit. I was walking alongside Kagome fully aware of her talking to me, but I couldn't focus on what she was saying for the life of me. It was like someone yelling into the whipping winds of a violent torrential storm; you simply waste your breath with words that carry no meaning over the crash of the storm. My mind was like a storm, thoughts of meeting with Naraku plaguing my mind, so that the erotic scenes playing inside my head drowned Kagome's words out.

"…So if we keep collecting Jewel shards, Naraku is bound to appear", I heard her finally say.

"Oh…um…yeah. Uh-huh. I think I'm gonna…um…go cool off in the forest and get some water", I mumbled.

"O-okay. I'll tell the others. Do you want me to come with you", she asked.

"No…I'll be fine", I said finally acknowledging her with a glance.

I walked ahead then and entered a break in the endless sea of trees that made up the forest that surrounded the path we were on. I felt a little calmer with the shade of the trees hovering over me like my own personal blanket of shadows, but that didn't stop the rush of heat that crept into my face, nor did it relieve the ache of my body. I scrambled underneath the shade of the trees towards the sound of rushing water so that I could at least cool my face off. Once I reached the stream's edge, I plunged my hands into the considerably strong current and splashed my face with the cool water a few times. I pushed away from the water's edge and found a tree to rest under.

The ache was still ever present; throbbing like a live, pulsing, breathing thing and it was nearly unbearable. I held my hands firmly at my sides as the desire to touch myself and put the ache to rest swelled within me. My hands and arms shook visible with effort not to touch myself. Hell, my entire body shook! I wished that Naraku would save me from the ache plaguing my body, but he wouldn't be here to do that until after sunset and that was a long time from now.

It was only noon! How was I going to endure an almost interminable time with the ache of my body riding me hard? I shivered and wrapped my arms tightly around myself trying to focus on other things aside from the ache, but there was nothing else; there was nothing but the ache, the unbearable ache. It was as though the throbbing ache of my body had caused my mind to shut out everything until its demands were met and it was satisfied. I brought my knees up to my chest and closed my eyes for while.

Handswarm hands touching mecool air was caressing my bare flesharms holding me tightlya warm body beneath me

Wait a minute

I was barely awake when I came to realize someone was holding me and not only that, but my kimono was open exposing my breasts. I could feel the strength of the arms holding me about my abdomen against a firmly muscled torso. Panic had not stricken my sleep-numbed mind and all cognitive thoughts were fogged over with drowsiness. When I felt the touch of gentle hands against my breasts, my eyes went wide. Though I couldn't muster a scream, I managed to turn in the person's arms to see who had such an intimate hold on me.

To my relief, it was only Naraku and I sighed. It quickly transitioned into a moan of pleasure as Naraku encircled my nipples with his fingers. I arched against his hands, spilling my breasts into his capable appendages willingly.

"W-what…are you d-doing here", I asked breathlessly.

"It's after sunset", he said simply, cupping my breasts as though it were the most natural thing in the world to do.

A quick glance around supported his claim and I locked gazes with him as I asked, "When did you get here?"

"About two hours ago", he said.

"I was out longer than two hours for sure. It only felt like an hour to me…What were you doing the whole time I was asleep?"

"Watching you sleep. As I stroked your face, your neck, your arms, I could sense your arousal. The scent was so intoxicating and I wanted to see how you would respond, even in your sleep. I have to say you responded rather well."

I blushed and turned in his arms, breaking eye contact with him. Kamino wonder why I felt so heated and restless while I slept. I felt his arms tighten unconsciously around me and I turned in his arms suddenly, a thought suddenly coming to mind.

"What about my friends?"

"What about them", he said, pinching my nipples.

"You…" I hissed, "know what I mean! I've been gone for over two hours, they have to be looking for me, right now as we speak!" I stiffened in his arms and moved to stand up and straighten my clothes, but Naraku held me to him firmly.

"Relax. Your friends are not looking for you. They're a little…occupied…"

"What have you done", I asked my anger flaring.

"Nothing…I simply created a diversion for them. And as far as they know, you're in the midst of fighting an ambush as well."

"You won't hurt them will you", I asked, true concern making my voice waver slightly.

"Of course not…" He eased me closer to his body, so that our lips were only a sigh away.

He finally closed the distance between our lips and kissed me gently. I melted against him, my breasts easing against his clothed chest. My hands found his shoulders, kneading the muscles there and he groaned. That one response brought the thoughts of exploring Naraku's body back to me in a torrential rush. I pulled back and I slipped the sides of his haori off his shoulders plastering my hands to his chest firmly. He watched me, completely inert as my hands explored the dips and valleys of his chest.

"So smooth…so warm…" I said, suddenly fascinated by the feel of Naraku's skin.

I brought my lips to the hollow of his throat, my tongue darting out briefly, tasting him tentatively. To my surprise Naraku sighed, and I leaned in, pressing my mouth against his throat warmly. "How much time do we have", I asked, breathlessly.

"As much time as you want…"

"Then", I said, "let's go somewhere…more appropriate." I tasted him again with my tongue and he sighed for me once more.

He captured my lips with his and I felt that rush of wind that I always felt when he transported us to a new a location. He held me in his arms, kissing my lips, with his arms wound tightly around my lower back and my legs wound just as tightly around his waist. If it hadn't been for the fact that my kimono wasn't currently bunched up around my hips, holding this position would've been impossible. He gripped my bare thighs tightly as he assaulted my lips with his feverishly. When he finally pulled away from our kiss, I was breathless.

Naraku stroked the insides of my thighs, before one of his clever hands found my entrance and he swiftly slipped two of his skillful fingers inside me. I sighed, and I brought him closer to me with my arms about his shoulders.

"Ah…Naraku…"

He kissed my throat lightly, starting to slowly and shallowly thrust into me with his two fingers. I shook in his arms as he continued to thrust his fingers in and out of me. There was nothing but the feel of his fingers slowly entering me, in and out, in and out and this delicious rhythm brought me to a trembling, gushing orgasm in his arms. Naraku slowly withdrew his fingers from my entrance, sending delicious waves of pleasure up my spine. He brought his drenched fingers to that sensuous mouth of his and licked them clean before me while I watched, like he'd done so many times before. I simply had to have him now, before all thoughts fled my mind and he took me. I locked gazes with him with my body still wrapped around his in an intimate embrace that nearly exceeded our lovemaking.

"I want to explore this…" I ran my hands across the exposed expanse of his chest. "I want to explore your body. I want to know yours as well as you know mine."

I kissed the base of his throat again and he elicited another sigh like before. The sound rumbled from deep within his chest, and it was almost labored as though he had been holding his breath for a long time. I buried my face in the crook of his neck, brushing the pulsing of his jugular vein with my lips. He was so unbelievable warm there and I could feel the rushing of his blood underneath the surface of his skin. I chanced a brief flick of my tongue against that warm skin.

Naraku groaned and the sound trembled through me, making me shiver. In the midst of all this, Naraku had moved us so that we now stood inside his bedroom. He put me back onto my feet beside his bed and the moment he put his hands onto my shoulders, I knew he intended to push me backwards onto the bed. I reversed the motion and he was the one that ended up on his back on the bed. Demon slaying wasn't the only thing I was taught in my early youth.

I then crawled languidly on top of him, straddling his hips so that my knees were on either side of him. He looked startled for a moment as if I had done something truly fascinating, but it truly wasn't. In all honesty he could have stopped me at anytime, but he was too distracted and just hadn't expected it. I supported my weight with the flats of my palms braced against his bare chest and stared down at him.

"That's more like it…" I whispered.

My hands brushed aside his haori so that there was no barrier between my hands and his bare skin; I wanted to feel everything and I wanted him to feel everything too. My caresses were tentative, almost hesitant and I didn't know why. I guess it was perhaps the fear that I would touch Naraku the wrong way and anger him. That was more than likely the reason why my hands started to shake and I paused in my exploration of the broad expanse of his chest. He brought his hands up from his sides and clasped my trembling ones in his.

"Why'd you stop", he asked staring up at me intently.

When I didn't answer he brushed my hands against his soft lips, kissing the insides of each of my palms. I sighed and nearly melted against him as thrills of pleasure went up my spine. He pulled me down by my hands so that I was leaning over him with only a few inches separating our bodies, our lips.

"Do what you will…have me if you wish", he murmured.

His lips were too close, too tempting not to kiss, so I closed that scant distance between us, pressing my lips firmly to his. He released my hands so I could maintain my balance while I kissed him deeply and felt them slip behind me, cupping my lower back tenderly. I pulled away from the kiss, eyes screwed shut as though I were savoring his taste, before I opened them and stared down into his eyes. His eyes reflected the same eager excitement that was shining in my eyes then and the sight gave me the boost of confidence I needed. I could do this now for sure, without a doubt.

My hands were steadier now, more sure of themselves as I brushed the palms of my hands across his bare chest. Each gentle caress of my hand made him shiver and sigh and his responses only fed my eagerness to explore every inch of him.

"Sango…" he hissed, shuddering when my lips met the base of his throat, warmly.

I could feel his hands sliding lower, so that they were cupping my buttox, before he hands dipped lower and found their clever way down in between my thighs. All he was doing was massaging the smooth expanse of the insides of my thighs, but it was enough for him to distract me and I had to pull back.

"If you don't stop doing that, I'll have to tie you up."

I wasn't serious, but the look on his face said he didn't care if I tied him up as long as I continued what I started and I would, just not with those wonderful hands of his stroking so near to my aching core. I leaned down and bit his collarbone and he groaned for me, his fingers digging into the bare flesh of my thighs. My breath hissed out against his skin as the pain of his grip made me shudder.

"Naraku…let me go…I-I can't focus with you touching me…"

He shifted so that he could look down at me and said, "Is that so…"

I nodded and licked the imprint of my teeth in his skin and his eyes rolled back into his head as he collapsed against the bed. I climbed back over him so that I was looming over him on all fours. My breasts hung freely and my hair was a mess, but I didn't care. All that mattered was the half demon below me and what I could do to him. I sat gently on him, shifting my weight until I was comfortable before I pressed my upper body against his and began my assault. I licked the base of his throat first, then traced a path with lingering kisses on his body before my tongue followed. I listened to each of his responses—ranging from sighs to rumbling groans—and I found each and every one of his sweet spots. There was his collarbone, the crook of his neck, the bend of his elbow, then his nipples and his navel. I hadn't gone any lower than his waist though. It was one thing for him to be naked before me; that I could handle. What I couldn't handle was peeling his clothes from his body with my own hands. I could feel him bulging, underneath me, the pounding of his blood, and the merciless ache there. I wanted to relieve his ache, but I didn't know how. I looked up at him and watched his chest heave from my teasing foreplay. He enjoyed it—I could tell—but I wanted him to enjoy himself more. I wanted to be the one to drive him mad with lust. I brought my hand down to the bulging front of his pants and began to stroke him through the straining fabric of his pants. His eyes shot open and he sat up suddenly, dumping me none to gently in his lap and right over his throbbing erection.

"S-Sango…" he rasped.

I slid my hand down between our bodies and found him again, stroking purposely to draw a reaction from him. He hissed lightly and I watched as he breathed in and out, open-mouthed before me.

"I want to feel you", I said staring directly at his face.

He opened his eyes with such languor, it looked as though he had been asleep only recently. I leaned in and licked his collarbone and he sighed. "Oh Kami Sango…stroke me…please stroke me!"

"Okay", I whispered against his skin. My hands shook lightly as I peeled away the last bit of clothing that covered him, but once he was naked before me I felt a bit more comfortable. My hand went out and grasped the thick length of him and he was so warm, so soft, and yet hard at the same time. I ran a hand delicately up and down the length of him and he shuddered faintly.

"Oh Kami S-Sango! Stroke me…stroke me harder!"

I was hesitant at first but I started up a rhythm applying more pressure and he cried out. He started to move with me and together we brought him to a powerful climax. His hot seed sprayed upward coating my hand, but I didn't mind. He leaned in and kissed me deeply, with no restraint and I responded with my own aggressiveness. When he pulled away his chest was heaving slightly from exertion and the high of his orgasm. He pulled me down with him so that I was laying on top of him, staring deeply into his dark eyes. He stroked my back gently soothing me and melting me into a spineless mass of pure lust.

"Sango…I want you to straddle my face…"

I was confused on what he was planning to do to me in that position and before I could open my mouth to protest or ask why, he put a finger to my lips. "Please", he said and that one word bent me to his will. I crawled over him carefully and settled my legs on either side of his head so that I was straddling his face, leaving my womanhood exposed and vulnerable to whatever he planned to do. Before I could have a chance to voice my confusion, he entered me languidly with his tongue. I screamed his name and threw my hand backward in ecstasy.

He continued to stroke me tenderly with his tongue finding my clit and tapping against it lightly before he pressed his tongue inside me, thrusting in and out. It felt so good! Never had Naraku done this to me; never had he probed me so deep with his tongue and the feeling of it warmly exploring me from the inside made me shudder. I began to move with him, feeling my climax close at hand. He stopped though, withdrawing his tongue from me gently.

"Don't stop…don't you dare stop", I cried from above him.

"I'm not stopping. You taste too good for me to stop tasting you all together. I want you to taste me Sango…I want you to suck me…"

I nodded leaning my mouth towards his engorged member, not really knowing what I was doing. I flicked my tongue against the head of his member and he shuddered slightly underneath me, before he gripped my inner thighs and spread them farther apart.

"Yes…that's it Sango. Lick me…lick the head nice and slow…"

I did it again and this time he groaned my name. I decided to become a little bolder and took the entire head of his member into my mouth and sucked it lightly.

"Oh Kami…oh yes Sango…suck it harder!"

I did and he screamed my name this time. He bucked his hips upwards, ramming his member inside my mouth repeatedly. He was going too fast though, and his movements jarred me making my teeth graze his member roughly. I jumped and pulled away when he hissed and he sounded as though he were in pain.

I wiped my mouth before I said, "Are you all right, Naraku? Did I hurt you?" I turned my head awkwardly to look over my shoulder and found him sprawled on the bed with his eyes screwed shut. I managed to turn around so that I was straddling his hips again. I watched him afraid to say more, and waiting for him to become angry with me and cast me out of his bed. But his angry voice never came, instead he sat up and looked me in the eyes.

"You didn't hurt me Sango…it felt good. Oh Kami it felt so damn good!"

"Really?'

"Yes…" he hissed. "For me pain is and aphrodisiac."

"Oh", I said blushing fiercely.

He gripped my chin gently and brought my lips to his tenderly. All my embarrassment

faded away and all my focus went into to kissing Naraku. The kiss melted me into putty and I suddenly couldn't think clearly. The ache of my body was riding me hard like before and I knew I needed to have release soon, or I'd explode. I pulled away from his kiss and locked gazes with him, letting him see the raw need in my eyes. I wasn't surprised when he got what I wanted right away and the next thing I knew, he was above and I was flat on my back below him.

"Sango…" he said caressing my face gently before he entered me deeply in one thrust.

There was no struggle for him to fit inside me because I was drenched in my own juices. My juices made Naraku's slow glide in and out of me all the more smoother and more enjoyable for me. There was no pain and that's was what I liked, but Naraku preferred pain during sex and so I gave him some. I raked his nails along his back, drawing blood in long runny lines, before I stroked his back to soothe the pain, smearing his back with blood. He trembled against me and started to thrust into me faster and faster until I lost focus on everything in the world but him before me, thrusting his powerful body into me.

"Oh Kami…Naraku I'm almost there!"

As if in response to my statement, he thrust into me deeper, hitting me in just the right spot. I screamed his name, clutching at is arms as my climax swelled and crashed upon me. I shuddered and the clenching shock of it made Naraku cum inside me. The feeling shoved me into another blissful climax that left my view of the world around me half-eaten by white light. When I finally resurfaced in reality, Naraku had collapsed beside me, breathing heavily, still buried deep inside me.

Both of us appeared reluctant to move and so we stayed like that; connected and near. When at last Naraku found the strength to move he pulled out of me slowly, inch by inch, with my inner walls clenching around him on the way out. When he was at last free from womanhood, he groaned and collapsed beside me. I rolled onto my side, snuggling closer to him before I kissed his forehead.

I was content to just lay beside him, but he rolled onto his side, and brushed his lips against my temple and said, "You should get cleaned up."

And just like that the moment was ruined and I realized I had to get back to my friends. I frowned and nodded, but I was clearly not happy. I rolled out of his bed and walked calmly to his washroom, without giving him any eye contact. I slid the door shut and leaned against it, and it was then that I realized that I was crying. I hated to cry, I really did, but lately all my tears had been for Naraku.

I didn't want it to be like this anymore I wanted to be with him forever, but there was that little rule that said you weren't supposed to fall for the enemy, let alone surrender to them but I already had. I had surrendered my heart to him and I loved him I knew that now, but I couldn't tell him that, not if I wished to keep my heart intact. I brushed away my tears roughly and decided to get cleaned up so I could get back to my friends. I boiled water for my bath and when the water was a suitable temperature I immersed myself in the liquid heat until my skin was numb to it and all my muscles relaxed. I must have fallen asleep, because the next thing I knew, Naraku was there in the water with me, holding me.

"What are you dong here", I asked, not looking him in the eyes because I was afraid of what emotions my eyes would show.

"I smelled your tears", he said simply.

"And", I whispered, not really able to say much else.

"And so I came to investigate, to find out what was causing you to cry after such glorious moments of flaming passion between us."

"You wouldn't want to know the reason; I just know you won't like the answer, so please don't ask", I said as tears filled my eyes again and I tried to fight to keep them in check.

I failed miserably when Naraku turned me in his arms and pulled me into the circle of his arms, holding me to him gently. "Why are you crying" he asked tenderly against my damp hair.

I knew I couldn't hold out much longer, so I allowed my tears to flow freely as I sobbed silently against his shoulder. He stroked my hair gently, waiting patiently for me to answer his question. When I finally found my voice it was shaky, but I managed to ease the shakiness until it was smooth and flat as though I had not been crying. I wasn't going tell him the true reason why I was crying, but I would tell a bit of partial truth.

"I don't want to leave your side just yet", I said against his bare shoulder.

"That's not the real reason why you were crying is it", he said.

"No it isn't, but that's all your getting right now."

He nodded and seemed to accept my answer, before he kissed my forehead lightly and found my lips with his. When he pulled away I was breathless. I found his gaze and saw the lust there and the sensual thoughts that were dancing in his eyes. The glint in his eyes very plainly said I'm having dirty thoughts about you and me together. I didn't like that look at all and put the flats of my palms against his broad chest to keep a bit of distance between us.

"Oh no you don't. We are so not making love right now. Have you forgotten that I still have to get cleaned up and back to my friends?"

"No", he said leaning in against my hands until they were trapped between our bodies.

"Well then let me finish cleaning up then", I said. My breath caught in my throat when he licked a long, languid, wet line up the side of neck. He pulled back, looking satisfied with my reaction and leaned his lips towards mine and I managed to get one of my hands out from between our bodies and press my fingers to his lips.

"I need to get cleaned up Naraku" I cried and he licked my fingers making me shudder. How I wanted to give myself over to him in that moment; how I wanted to lick away the droplets of water that had beaded on his skin. I couldn't though—at least not now—so I pushed him away and pointed at the door.

"Out" is what I said, and he leaned in and pressed a chaste kiss to my lips before he waded out of the water exposing his body glistening and wet before me.

My mouth went dry as I watched his sexy backside head towards the door and out into his bedroom. I desperately wanted to call him back to me, or leave the washroom with nothing on, wet and ready for him, so that we could make love over and over again. I shook my head, dispelling the mental images and focused on cleansing my body. It was harder to do than I thought, but I managed and when I came out of the washroom, Naraku was nowhere to be found. When I approached the bed I found a clean crisp new kimono to replace my soiled one and couldn't help but smile.

He left to give me privacy and gave me a new kimono. What more could a girl ask for? I carefully put the decorative kimono on and combed my fingers through my tousled hair and admired my reflection in the nearby mirror. I loved the kimono; it was much better then my old one for sure. It was a deep, dark purple decorated in white little flowers and had a white skirt wrapped around my lower half, leaving only a fringe of the rest of it to be seen. I twirled around in front of the mirror one last time and sat on the bed to wait for Naraku. As if he had known when I finished, Naraku came striding into the room in fresh new clothes looking absolutely delectable. He was dressed in a deep purple haori and black pants, which would seem rather simple to anyone else, but to me it was gorgeous. Just the sight of him made me all hot and fluttery inside. He scented the air for a moment and locked gazes with me, a knowing smile playing across my lips. He knew what he was doing to me and he loved it. He approached slowly and when he stood before me he took in a deep breath of air.

"Sango…oh Sango. I can smell your arousal. It's driving me crazy! What I wouldn't give to have you now", he said.

"Then you know I want the same thing. Unfortunately we'll have to save our fantasies for next the time we meet."

"Yeah…" he said.

He leaned in closer to me and I met his lips with my own, throwing my arms around him in desperate need. I felt the rush of wind around us, but I didn't dare look to see if we were back in the forest again. I wasn't ready to let to, at least not yet. Naraku kissed me feverishly for a bit longer and pulled away slightly. I held him to me though and he had to struggle just a bit to get free of my embrace. He kissed my forehead and then my cheeks where my tears started to fall. Damn.

"Until next time", he said brushing my tears away with the pads of his thumbs.

"Yeah", I whispered, dropping my gaze.

He lifted my chin gently, one last time and then he was gone in a breath-stealing gust of wind. I fell to my knees in tears.

I woke up sweating as the remnants of my erotic dream starring Naraku faded away leaving me feeling empty and cold. I missed him the past few days, because he hadn't come to meet me in our usual spot in the forest. And since he had been gone I had been moody and depressed most of the time. I barely mustered up enough energy to beat the snot out of that hentai monk who kept groping me every time I was close to him. I decided a little dip in the stream would do me good so I left our campsite and entered the darkness of the forest.

After a nice dip in the stream I dried off and headed in the direction of the campsite. I didn't make it far, because Naraku the man that had me sick with worry and depression appeared before me. I at first wanted to run to him and kiss him like there was no tomorrow, but I remembered he had been MIA for a few days without telling me why. I approached him calmly and looked up at him and smiled.

"Where the…" I started to say before he brought his lips to mine and all thought was lost to me.

When he pulled back I was still in a daze; my mind was all abuzz with the pleasure one kiss from him could do to me. I barely reacted when he pressed me deeper into the shadows with my back against a tree. He pressed his body dangerously close to mine and all brain function for me ceased at that point.

"I've missed you Sango..." he whispered against the shell of my ear.

"Huh…oh…I've missed you too", I said lamely. At least I wasn't drooling. I hadn't lost all voluntary control after all. "Where have you been", I asked reaching up and playing idly with a stray lock of his hair.

"That doesn't matter", he said bringing my hand that was currently tangled in his ebony tresses, back down to my side. "I came here to ask you something…"

"What…is that all you came for", I asked pressing the flats of my palms against his chest.

I was distracting him, trying to make him lose control so he could relieve the ache that had been building within me for the past few days he had been gone.

He gently pried my hands from his chest, but held them in his own, staring into my eyes. He was serious; something was definitely up.

I tried to use the few brain cells I had left, that hadn't been fried by his hot kiss, to focus on what he had to say. He looked down briefly and then looked back up at me before he said, "I want you stay at my castle."

"All right. It's not like I haven't spent the night at your castle before. So, for how long?"

"Forever…"

I turned as white as a ghost as his answer dawned on me. We had yet to have a complication with our relationship aside from the obvious—my friends not knowing about it. The more cynical part of me had always known he would drop a bomb one day that would screw up what we had, but the more optimistic part of me didn't want to believe it, so I pushed such thoughts away. And now it decides to resurface and bite me in the butt.

Damn, I had some pretty screwed up relationships…

The next thing I knew I was on the ground with Naraku leaning over me. I must have fainted and when I sat up the world spun and the blood rushed to my head, roaring loudly in my ears. Naraku caught me before I toppled over and held me close in his arms.

I rubbed my temples in soothing circles before I asked, "Now what were you saying earlier?"

"I want you to stay at my castle permanently", he said quietly.

My eyes widened and I shook my head and asked, "Why the sudden urgency? Things were working out just fine before. There's no need for me to be with you on a permanent basis."

I managed to keep my voice even, so that it didn't belie exactly how I felt about the situation. It had been my wish for a while to be with Naraku forever and it still was, but it was just too soon. I couldn't just up and drop my life and go to live with Naraku like I wanted. It just wasn't that simple. The biggest thing would be telling my friends the truth. How would they take the news? Not well, obviously. I sighed and sagged against him. This was too much right now; I just couldn't deal with this right now.

"I-I can't Naraku. It's too soon…I…"

He stopped me with a finger on my lips and my lips trembled against it. He allowed his finger to fall away from my lips and said, "I know it is what you desire Sango and I took those few days to prepare for your stay with me at the castle. I realize now that this is the reason why you were crying."

In truth that wasn't quite it. That wasn't all that I desired from him. I wanted him to love me as much I loved him, but I didn't say that out loud; I just nodded. I frowned and he lifted my chin gently so that I was gazing into those warm eyes of his.

"Please stay with me at the castle Sango", he said.

My gaze shot downward and I whispered, "I-I can't…"

I saw his eyes fill with an emotion I had never seen in him before—sorrow—and I was the cause of it. I would've given anything wipe away that emotion at that moment which was why I agreed to stay with him.

"But only for a week", I said as an afterthought.

He nodded clearly pleased with my decision and I mirrored the smile playing upon my lips. Then suddenly I thought of something.

"How are we going to explain my disappearance", I asked, becoming anxious again.

He laughed a deep throaty laugh that sent shivers down my spine. "Don't worry about it…I've got it all planned out", he said.

And with that he captured my lips with his and whisked me away to his castle for another night wonderful lovemaking.


A/N: So I hoped you liked this chapter. The next chapter will consist of Naraku's plan and Sango's stay at his castle and what's this, Miroku is starting to suspect something! Dun, dun, dun! Well until next time! I'm out!
