Chapter Sixteen: Cavalry

Kagome had a quiet love for her hanyou. It was the love of friends that had once thought the world of one another but couldn't find a way to make things work. It was a love that no matter what happened or whom the other ended up with they knew they could rely on one another to do what needed to be done.

It was because of that love as she was backhanded by a brute of a man across her swollen cheek that she was able to glare definitely, cerulean hues cold at the males that surrounded her leeringly.

It was because of that love she was able to hoarsely whisper with stout conviction, "He will come for me and he will kill you."

The men around her laughed at her attempts to scare them and Kagome could only gaze at the men and see them as dead. Inuyasha had not mellowed out over the years – in fact he became more ruthless and brutal, a trait he passed along to Kagome. These men were hurting her and Inuyasha would not allow them to live and Kagome couldn't find it in her to care as grubby hands moved through her obsidian locks and breath that reeked of alcohol rolled against her cheek.

She did not fight and she did not struggle.

Because Inuyasha would come for her.

He always had.

And he always would.

As the first few screams filled the air Kagome smiled charmingly despite the possible grotesqueness of her swollen features and simple state, "I told you so!"

As the door to dank room she was in slammed open and crimson liquid sprayed the floors Kagome breathed a sigh. The men didn't stand a chance when the throats were brutally torn open and killed quickly. Looking up to the open door Kagome watched as her savior stepped out from the shadows of the room.

Blinking with shock she gaped, "Sebastian?"

Sebastian's smile was strained as he bowed at the waist, "At your service, mi'lady."

His glittering scarlet hues moved along her form and frowned at the bruises and cuts that littered her here and there.

Scowling he began to untie her.

After all, only he was allowed to harm her if he saw fit.
