Chapter 20

Kagome

I fluttered open my eyes as the warmth of sunlight fell on my face. I looked around the room, taking in my surroundings for the first time. I hadn't really looked around Mattaki's…our chambers last night. I had just wanted to be held so that I could cry for my grandfather.

I had known that he would pass at some point in time. I just wish I could have been there to say goodbye. His death just reminded me of everyone else's. Now that I'm mated to Mattaki, I would have his lifespan, which means I will have to watch Sango and Miroku, and now my mother and brother, die.

It wasn't something I wanted to experience. When it comes time for them all to leave, I wasn't sure how I would handle it. Last night, Mattaki had been a lot of help. He just held me while I cried, even bathing me before putting me to bed.

He made sure he was there for me, in every way possible. He supported me through my turmoil and made sure I was okay. He truly was the perfect mate. He gave me everything I needed, and more.

While I was upset about my friends and family, I knew I was lucky. I turned my head to my sleeping mate and smiled. His arm was laid out flat and I was using it as a pillow. His chest rose and fell slightly as he breathed deeply.

This beautiful demon loved me. He took care of me and adored me, and he always will. I don't think he would ever grow tired of me, just as I would never grow tired of him. I don't think we could ever separate, nor would we want to.

A slight twitch caught my eye and I looked down to find out what it was. I had to keep myself from giggling at the very large tent in the sheets. Sure, I knew what morning wood was, and this wasn't the first time Mattaki has had it, but it was the first time we have slept in an actual bed together.

Very gently, I lifted myself from his arm. My movements were slow and precise so that I didn't wake him from his slumber. I wasn't sure how he would react to what I was going to do, but for some reason, I wanted to try it. I enjoyed pleasing him this way, and I knew he liked it as well. He made sure to tell me quite often.

Finally, I was able to crawl in between his legs and pull the cover from him. His very hard erection twitched as I gazed at it, as if it already knew what I had planned. I grabbed him in my hands and gently began pumping him, watching for his reaction.

At first, nothing happened, and I began wondering if this would work, but when I squeezed slightly, a soft moan could be heard. Smiling, I licked my tongue over the tip of him. If I could get a moan from just my hand, I wondered what my mouth could do.

Slowly, I pulled him into my mouth. His taste instantly overflowed my senses. It wasn't strong, nor was it gross as some people had suggested. It was…male, and entirely him. I imagine if I was inu like he was, it would be enough to drive me crazy.

I gave a few soft sucks before I began picking up my pace. His moans were becoming louder now, and every now and again, he would thrust into my mouth. I was surprised that he still wasn't awake, and I wondered if he would sleep through the whole thing.

One of my hands rested on his thigh while I began running my other down to his balls. I held them in my hand before slightly squeezing them. In that moment, the loudest moan yet escaped his mouth and his hand suddenly fisted into my hair.

I looked up to see red eyes looking down at me. His face was full of surprise, but pleasure at the same time. His blood eyes told me he more than enjoyed what I was doing. I smirked, giving a particularly hard suck before letting him fall out of my mouth.

"It looks like someone finally decided to wake up." I teased before licking along his length. The full-body shudder that went through him had me smirking again.

"Woman, I did not tell you to stop." He growled, his voice deep and raspy from his beast.

I didn't say anything as I took him back into my mouth. His head fell back on the pillows and he began thrusting gently into my mouth. I liked it when he did this. It made me gain a little bit of an ego, knowing that I could please him this way.

Wanting to take things a step further, I pushed myself on him, taking him deeper into my mouth. I could feel him poking the back of my throat but I didn't stop. I wanted to see just how far I could take him.

The further in he went, the tighter his hand gripped my hair. When I could no longer take any more of him into my mouth, I pulled away, just to suck him back in to the same spot. It was uncomfortable, but the growls and moans escaping him made it worth it.

"Kagome…" He breathed, making me look up at him. It was just my name, but I knew what it meant. He was warning me.

I took him deep into my mouth again while simultaneously grabbing his balls. Instantly, he tensed up beneath me, and with one final thrust, I could feel his seed shooting down my throat. Hot spurts of the liquid coated my mouth and filled it until I had no choice but to swallow.

When I knew he was finished, I let his softening cock fall from my mouth and licked any remaining cum off of it. After he was cleaned, I climbed on top of him and laid my head on his chest. He was still breathing hard, and I knew it would take a moment for him to settle down.

"What brought that on, Little One?" He asked, wrapping his arms around my waist.

"I just wanted to try it." I admitted, my face beginning to darken with a blush. "If you didn't lik–"

"Do not even finish that sentence. You may wake me up like that anytime you wish." He declared with a chuckle.

"We should probably get dressed." I said, trying to hide my embarrassment. How is it that I can wake him up like that without a problem, but the moment he speaks about it, I can't handle it?

"You are going nowhere. I am not done with you." He informed, a glint in his now-golden eyes.

I cocked my head to the side, wondering what he meant. An evil smirk grew on his face just before he thrust his hips up, effectively shoving his fully erect manhood into my thigh. I smiled, now knowing just what he wanted.

Giving him a blowjob was something that turned me on just as much as it did him. I didn't know why, nor did I care enough to question it. I could already feel the moisture between my legs and I knew he could smell it.

I sat up and placed one hand on his chest while the other reached between us and grabbed a hold of his firm cock. I pushed up to my knees a tiny bit so that I could position him at my folds. I ran the tip of his erection against me, all the way from my core to my clit and back again.

That action was enough to get a moan from both of us. I had never really taken charge like this before, and I knew it was rare for inu yokai to ever give up control, especially alphas, but here was Mattaki, letting me do as I pleased. This meant that he trusted me completely.

Finally unable to take the teasing any longer, I positioned him to my core and slowly dropped myself on him. His hands tightened on the bed beneath us while mine gripped at his chest. When he was fully sheathed inside of me, I paused for a moment to make sure this was okay for him.

When his hands moved to my hips, I knew he was telling me to continue. Ever so slowly, I pulled myself up before going back down. I set a slow and torturous pace, wanting to see just how long Mattaki could last before taking control.

I could feel his claws digging into my skin slightly, and I couldn't help but smile. I lifted off of him to the point where only the head of his cock remained buried inside of me. I circled my hips around him, loving it when he let out an impatient growl. I let myself fall roughly back on him before beginning my slow pace once again.

"Kagome." He warned, once he realized I was teasing him. I smiled at him and noticed the way his eyes were beginning to bleed red. It wouldn't be long now.

Mattaki

I looked up at my mate and could see the way the evil glint shined in her eyes. She was doing this on purpose. She wanted me to lose control. Did she not understand that my beast would not be easy on her?

Even after I warned her, she still continued her slow pace. I thrust my hips up, attempting to make her go faster, but my reward was her pulling away and teasing me with a swirl of her hips before slamming down on me again.

In truth, she was winning. I was losing control to my beast. He was clawing his way to the surface, determined to show his bitch who the alpha was. I was trying to fight him, but I knew I would lose. There was nothing I could do at this point.

"Do you know what you have done?" I asked, my voice deeper than normal.

"I have teased you, and it appears that your beast is not pleased." She answered with another swirl of her hips.

I snarled, and in a matter of seconds, I had her lying flat on her stomach with me on top of her. I pushed my weight against her and held her in place. I could see her looking at me out of the corner of her eye with that smirk still on her face.

"Is this what you wanted?" I asked, thrusting my hips against her, pushing my cock against her perfect ass.

"Yes." She moaned as I leaned down and bit her neck.

"You wanted my beast? You wanted it rough?" I continued, moving my mouth to her ear and tugging on the lobe.

"Yes. I want all of you, beast included." She whispered, making me sit back slightly.

She wanted my beast. She wanted and accepted all of me. I knew she was my soulmate but hearing her say that she accepted even my instinctual side did something to me. Something I couldn't even explain.

All thought went out the window at her declaration. I sat back on my knees and pulled her hips into the air. She knew what I wanted and spread her legs slightly, presenting herself to me. I could see her watching my every move as I reached out and rubbed an ass cheek gently.

Without any warning, I smacked her skin, causing her to jump slightly. I watched to see her reaction and was surprised at the spike in her arousal. She enjoyed it. She really enjoyed me being rough. This was just another thing to prove that she was perfect for me.

I smacked her again, followed quickly by three more, not giving her skin a chance to adjust to the assault. She now sported a deep red cheek and I decided it was time to show the other one some attention.

While one of my hands gave the same treatment to her untouched cheek, my other shoved two fingers deep inside of her core. Her juices ran down my fingers and over my hand, another telltale sign of just how much she was enjoying this.

I was, in no way, being gentle, and my cock twitched, knowing that I wouldn't have to hold back like I had been. She wanted me to be myself, and that is exactly what she would get. The moment her walls clamped down on my fingers and she let out a loud moan, I ripped my fingers away from her and replaced them with my cock.

My entrance had been a shock to her, for I had slammed into her, nearly knocking her over. When she realized what I did, she yelped before bracing herself against me. I growled as I pulled back and slammed into her again, setting a rough and fast pace.

I could hear our skin slapping together. I could feel her nectar running down my thighs as I pounded into her weeping cunt. Not missing a thrust, I leaned over her petite frame, drowning her in my size.

My hands rested behind her elbows and my chest was planted firmly against her back. I kissed and nibbled and bit along her neck, getting the best sounding mewls and moans from her. Her hands were clenched into fists on the bedding beneath us so tightly that, if she had claws, she would have ripped it.

She tried moving against me, but my speed was too much for her. She eventually gave up and just took what I had to offer, which didn't bother me. I would never say no to a submissive bitch.

"Is this as good as you hoped for?" I growled, running my fangs over her shoulder.

"Yes!" She cried out.

"Who is it that can make you feel this way?" I asked. With another hard thrust, she was clamping around me and yelling out her ecstasy. She very nearly took me with her, but I was somehow able to fight it off.

When she came back down to earth, she was panting. I never once stopped my thrusts so she never truly got a chance to calm back down. I knew bringing her to her next orgasm would be easy. I also knew I wouldn't last through another one.

"Answer me, Bitch." I snarled, not holding anything back anymore.

"You do!" She cried.

"Say my name." I ordered. I could feel my end coming, and I knew she was right along with me.

"Ma–" She started, but stopped when she moaned.

"Say it." I demanded. I wanted to hear her cry out my name before I exploded, and said end was not very far off.

"Matt…Ma…" She tried again, making me snarl.

"Damn it, Woman. Say it NOW!" I yelled, fighting off my end as much as possible.

"Mattaki!" She moaned loudly as she fell off of the cliff for the third time.

"Kagome." I grunted as my cock exploded inside of her.

I had never had an orgasm so strong before, and I wondered if it was ever going to stop. I could feel my seed forcing itself out of her walls and dripping down my thigh to the bed beneath us. Her walls were literally milking me of everything I had, to the point where she couldn't hold all of it.

As I finally began coming back to reality, I leaned my head against her shoulder and panted deeply. I sat there for a few minutes, trying to catch my breath. It wasn't until I felt her trembling beneath me that I leaned back.

I pulled myself out of her and raised an eyebrow at the small stream of my seed that fell out of her, pooling on the bed. When my beast was present, I would always cum more than normal, but this was new, even to me. Kagome rolled to her side, still panting.

"We are a mess." I informed, looking down at my soaked thighs and her still-dripping cunt.

"It's your fault." She panted, smiling towards me.

"My fault? Woman, you teased me." I defended before climbing off of the bed. I picked up my mate and began carrying her to the baths.

"True. But it was fun." She giggled, a blush forming on her cheeks.

"Still so innocent, even after what just occurred." I teased, walking into the water of the spring.

Not much was said as we bathed ourselves. It was still early in the day and breakfast had yet to be served. We quickly finished cleaning ourselves and dressed. After we left, I informed a servant to change our sheets, inwardly laughing at the intense blush that formed on Kagome's cheeks.

I guided her to the dining hall, her small hand wrapped around my arm. When we arrived, everyone was already present and waiting. I pulled out Kagome's chair and when she was settled, I took my own seat. Breakfast was served just after that.

"We need to decide what to do from here." InuYasha started. "We need to keep Hitomi and Souta safe while we look for the shards."

"If you think for one minute that I will be left behind while my daughter is traveling to save the world, you are mistaken." Hitomi cut in, glaring at InuYasha.

"Mom. It's dangerous out there. You don't know how to defend yourself against demons." Kagome argued.

"Teach me." Hitomi ordered, surprising even me.

"What? I rely mostly on my bow and reiki. I could teach you how to shoot, but there is nothing I can do about the reiki." Kagome informed.

"Dear, do you think you just magically became a miko? It does run in the family, you know." Hitomi laughed, making my eyes snap towards her.

"Are you saying you are a miko as well?" I asked before pushing my aura over her. Now that I was searching for it, I could feel the reiki buried deep inside of her. With the right training, she would be able to hone her energy and fight just as well as any miko of this time.

"I'm not as strong as Kagome, but yes, I am a miko." Hitomi answered.

"Why didn't you ever say anything?" Kagome asked, looking at her mom with new eyes.

"It wasn't needed in the modern era, but here, it is. Until we find a way for us to return home, I will not be locked away. You will teach me how to shoot and fight. You are my daughter, and I wish to protect you and Souta." Hitomi informed.

I sighed and looked at my mate, searching for any objections. I could see the worry on her face, but I could tell she wouldn't deny her mother. I turned back to Hitomi and her son, knowing that they both needed to be trained, if only for their survival.

"I agree to it. Hitomi, Kagome will teach you how to tap into your reiki and how to shoot a bow. Souta, I will train you on how to wield a sword." I explained, noticing the way Souta's face lit up.

"What about the shards?" InuYasha asked.

"The monk can touch the shards." Sesshomaru interrupted. "He cannot sense them, or purify them, but he will be able to touch them without being taken over."

"Miroku, would you and Sango be willing to lead a small army to search for the shards? It will take about a month to train Hitomi and Souta properly." I asked, looking towards the man. Miroku looked at his wife before nodding towards me.

"We will gladly do this for our group. The quicker we defeat Naraku, the quicker we can return to our children." He said with a small bow.

"I will have a small group of men ready to join you by tomorrow morning. Will that be acceptable?"

"Yes, that will be just fine." He answered. I turned to Sesshomaru before looking at Rin.

"I want you to teach Hitomi the ways of a healer. You know your herbs and ways to bandage the injured much more than anyone else. I also want you to learn how to shoot a bow." I ordered, getting a nod from Rin but a growl from Sesshomaru.

"She does not need to learn to shoot. I will protect her." Sesshomaru stated, not removing his eyes from mine.

"I am not asking her to fight, but she should know how to defend herself. What happens if you are in the middle of battle and she is stuck alone? At least let her learn to protect herself." I reasoned, hoping I wouldn't have to order him to do this. After a few moments of silence, and glaring at each other, he finally nodded and looked away.

"Training will begin tomorrow." I ordered.

After that, we all fell into a comfortable silence and enjoyed our breakfast. It wasn't until we were almost done that I felt an aura pushing against mine. I tensed immediately once I realized who it was. I looked up and caught Sesshomaru's eyes, which were filling with amusement.

"Son, do not give me that look. Do you think, because you have grown, he will not treat you as he once did? I have been fully grown for hundreds of years, and he still treats me like a pup." I growled. Instantly, Sesshomaru's amusement faded.

We looked at each other for a second before sharing a nod. We stood, attempting to run, but before we even had a chance to take a step, we were both pulled into a very strong headlock. I attempted to grab the arm around my neck and growled when I was held down.

"So it is true, Little Brother. You have returned from the dead." The male rumbled. I could hear the smirk on his face, and it just angered me even more.

My eyes caught Sesshomaru's, who was also struggling against his hold. We once again shared an unspoken conversation, and once we were in agreement, worked together to peel the man off of us and throw him into the nearby wall.

"You are not my brother, Kai." I growled with annoyance.

"Details." Kai laughed, standing up from his fallen position.

"Why are you here?" I sighed, knowing that he wasn't going to be leaving anytime soon. I didn't really have a problem with him, except for the way he treated me like I was still a pup. He may be a hundred years older than me, but that didn't mean anything.

"I heard you were alive and came to check for myself. How are you back?" Kai asked, looking me up and down.

"It's a long story." I stated, watching as Sesshomaru sat beside Rin, trying to keep his dignity in place.

That was the thing about Kai. He could make anyone feel like a child just by speaking to them. But he was loyal to a fault. He was also just as strong as I was. Having him on your side was a definite plus. Growing up with him had not been easy. There were quite a few times I had ended up being thrown around, but he had become like a brother to me, although I would never admit that out loud.

"Mattaki?" Kagome called, making me look at her. Her voice also caught the attention of Kai, and before I could say anything, he had Kagome's hands in his.

"You are a very beautiful creature. Where did you get your eyes?" He purred, causing Kagome to blush.

"Kai, release my mate." I growled, my annoyance coming back.

"Why is it you get all of the pretty ones, Mattaki?" He asked, letting go of Kagome. "Speaking of pretty, have you gone to see Satori? I'm sure she knows you are back by now."

"Why would I go see her?" I asked before making my way to my seat beside my mate.

"She is the mother of your eldest." Kai informed, taking a seat beside Hitomi, who was gawking at the demon. Of course, Kai noticed this and flashed one of his flirtatious grins, causing the woman to blush just as deeply as Kagome does.

"She's also a bitch." InuYasha mumbled.

"InuYasha!" Kagome warned, making his ears fall flat on his head.

"For once, I agree with the whelp." Sesshomaru said.

"She's your mother!" Kagome gasped, making Kai and I laugh.

"She may be his mother, but that does not change what she is." Kai chuckled. "I do not think I have ever met a demon so cold before."

"Agreed. Being married to her was miserable." I admitted.

"Then why did you do it?" Kagome asked, looking at me confused. I was thankful she didn't seem bothered by this conversation, just curious.

"She was a political marriage. Her bloodline was strong, despite her personality. Simply put, she would provide a strong heir." I stated with a shrug of my shoulders. "The moment Sesshomaru was weaned, I sent her away."

"That seems cruel." Kagome scolded, making me raise an eyebrow.

"You have not met her, Miko. Though this one is sure you will." Sesshomaru cut in, making me flinch.

"That is not a day I look forward to." I sighed.

"I do." InuYasha scoffed. "The moment the bitch starts to insult Kagome is the moment she will be turned into dust."

"Why would she insult Kagome?" Hitomi asked, looking worried. Kai, InuYasha, and Sesshomaru all pointed towards me. I rolled my eyes before sitting back in my chair.

"While I did not love her, she loved me. When I took Izayoi as my second wife, she felt as if she was being scorned. She did not like the idea that she was going to have to bow to a human. A human who stood by my side where she could no longer stand. It will be the same with Kagome. That is why I have not gone to visit her. I do not wish to make her think that I have any feelings towards her other than respect as my eldest son's mother." I explained with a deep, annoyed sigh. This morning had started out so great.

"You know, for once, I think I want Kouga to come around." InuYasha started thoughtfully. "You've got all of these woman falling at Kagome's feet, maybe it's time for a male to fall at yours."

"Who is this Kouga?" I asked, looking down at Kagome who was blushing.

"Thank-you, InuYasha." Kagome growled, making me do the same.

"You will answer me, Mate." I ordered.

"He is the wolf prince of the East." Sesshomaru cut in, an evil smirk on his face. "He claimed the miko as his at the beginning of the original search for Naraku. He still believes she belongs to him."

"Where is he? I will kill him." I snarled, my eyes bleeding red.

"Mattaki, calm down. I have told him that I am not his, and I will keep doing so until he finally accepts it." Kagome soothed, not realizing her words only angered me even more.

"You have refused his advances, yet he continues to claim you as his?" I growled. Kagome swallowed, realizing just how angry I was getting, before her own eyes grew angry.

"Wait just a damn minute!" She snapped, shocking me. "Not only has your second wife tried to kill me, I just learned that your first wife will most likely try to do the same. I have sat back and watched you look at Izayoi with sadness, so much so that I left. Pretty soon, I will probably have to defend myself against Satori, and I have yet to get angry at you for any of it. But one mention of Kouga, who you have never even met, and your beast is suddenly out, wanting his blood? No! If anyone has a reason to want to kill someone, it would be me wanting to rip into your hide for having all of these past women being thrown at me. So you put your leash back onto your beast before I give you a reason to whimper in a corner!"

I was frozen as she turned and stormed out of the dining room, slamming the doors open before the servants even had a chance to open them for her. Snickering brought me out of my shocked state and I turned to see both InuYasha and Sesshomaru trying not to laugh.

When they noticed me looking at them, they lost it. I was even more surprised that Sesshomaru was laughing. While not as loud as InuYasha, it was still a laugh. Looking around, I could see everyone else, except Kanna and Kai, who were confused, looking just as amused.

"Finally! You finally get to feel her wrath." InuYasha laughed. He leaned back so far, he fell backwards in his chair, but that didn't even stop his racket as he rolled on the floor.

"I do have to admit, Father, it is nice not to have her anger focused on me." Sesshomaru chuckled.

"Don't worry. Sesshomaru looked just as shocked as you the first time Kagome laid into him." Rin added with a smile. "Just give her some time to cool off. She'll come to you upset with herself for yelling at you. Just have an apology ready then."

"What do I need to apologize for?" I asked, glaring at my youngest as he busted into more laughter.

"Mattaki." Miroku started hesitantly. "If I may, Kagome will feel sorry for talking to you in such a way, but she is right. She has had to fight off Izayoi twice now, and in the future, this Satori will eventually show. You just found out about Kouga, who still believes Kagome to be dead, and you almost lost control while she has sat back and even said she would let you handle it. In a way, she was saying she trusted you, but you were saying you did not trust her."

"Besides, if you don't apologize to her, she's just going to get angry again." InuYasha added, pulling himself up from the floor before grabbing the beads around his neck. "Just be glad you don't have these damn things. The angrier the bitch is, the worse they hurt."

"Sit, Boy!" Kagome yelled, making InuYasha slam into the table, breaking it again. None of us realized that she had come back, and now I was swallowing hard, wondering how much she had heard. The moment her eyes met mine, I knew it was enough.

"So, you feel as if you have nothing to apologize for?" She started, making me flinch. "I'll remember that the next time you have the urge to rut. It's a good thing you got some this morning because it will be a while before I let you touch me again."

Once again, she stormed out of the room, and I couldn't stop the whimper that escaped my throat. At the pathetic sound, everyone in the room started laughing at my crestfallen face. If I had ears like InuYasha, they would be plastered to my head in defeat.

-sSs-

Hehehe. An angry Kagome. I was rereading this story and realized that Kagome had never actually been truly angry with Mattaki. I decided to change that. Lol. I'll explain more about Kai in another chapter. I haven't decided if he should get with Hitomi or not so go ahead and give your opinions on what you think, if you want to. I hope you enjoyed your read.

Shout-outs:

Soranay: Thank-you for following my story. I will do my best to keep it interesting.

Kikkidog: I'm glad you like my story enough to favorite it. Thank-you.

Keotaka: Thank-you for favoriting me and my story.

Reddrake323: Thank-you for your review. I was having trouble but now I'm starting to get back into the flow of things. Souta and Hitomi will be a part of the story, and while I will write about how they have to adjust to their new life, they will not be main characters.

Miskee: Thank-you for your offer and I will keep you in mind as I become stuck. I'm glad that I have you to help me along the way.

Jj: Yes, poor grandpa. But realistically, he never would have been able to survive in the feudal era. So, in a way to make it easier for Kagome, it was better to have him already killed off than to have him killed in front of her.

I do not own InuYasha.
