AU: "I do not own Inuyasha." She looks up at the people in black suits. "STOP LOOKING AT ME"!"
--------------------------------------------------------------Chapter 3 Re-cap------------------------------------------------------------
"Remember, he raked his nails down your stomach. Now stop being so stubborn." She blushed a little, holding up her shirt, her toned stomach creased the claw marks that were edged with red. 'Kagome, I swear I'll protect you from now on.'
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kagome winced as Inuyasha pressed the antibiotics onto her wound. "Does that hurt Kagome?" Inuyasha asked, his voice tinged with worry. She nodded softly and looked down at him. His fingers softly massaged the medicine into her sickening looking wounds. When he looked up at her, her face flushed red and she averted her gaze from him. A smirk crossed Inuyasha's face as he saw her flushed face. As Inuyasha opened his mouth to say how cute she was, a cell phone started buzzing on the bedside table.
"Is that yours Inu?" She asked. Inuyasha shook his head and looked up at her. Kagome's face went deathly pale as the realization that it was hers hit her. "Oh." She let her shirt fall back over her freshly medicated wounds and reached over and grabbed her phone. The caller i.d. read 'Dad'. 'No.' Was all she could think.
She flipped her phone open and put it next to her ear. "Daddy?" She asked softly. She could feel Inuyasha watching her, analyzing every word of the conversation. "What's going on?"
"Kagome." Her father's voice was low and full of venom. "Where's Kouga." A snarl ripped through Inuyasha's chest as he heard his name. Kagome's heard almost stopped and her wounds started throbbing, she winced in pain as she thought of him.
"I-I don't know Father." She trembled softly, a feeling of freezing cold water rushing down her spine overwhelming her. Inuyasha quickly wrapped his arms around her as he realized this wasn't an ordinary conversation.
"I do. He's right here and he wants to know why his FIANCEE,"The word brought tears to her eyes as she heard it," spent the night at another man's house instead of with her betrothed."
"Father.."
"Don't interrupt me Kagome. You will go back to Kouga. If you don't, I will kill the man that you are with. I will spare no mercy. You are Kouga's betrothed. Now be good and return home. Kouga misses you. Oh, here, he wants to talk to you." Kagome's hands trembled and her eyes were plastered open. She heard the phone switch hands and then footsteps.
"Hello Kagome." Kouga said slyly. "I know he's there with you. You weren't in school today, that's how I knew that you were with him. Your wounds can't be that bad, we both know their not nearly as bad as the time you got that terrible compound fracture." He chuckled. "Your father's driver will pick you up in thirty minutes. Be ready, or I will hunt you down. Goodbye babe."
Kagome didn't even hear the phone hang up. Her trembling hands had let it slip through at goodbye, she could feel Inuyasha's snarls and growls on her side, and the tears that streamed down her face as she went ghost white. "He….can't….have….you….back." Inuyasha growled low in her ear. Kagome felt herself slip into unconsciousness, her thoughts swimming a mile a minute.
Thirty minutes later, Kagome's eyes opened slowly. She had blankets tucked up to her chin and she could hear voices in the front room. One was Inuyasha's, the other sounded like her father, and the third was no doubt Kouga.
She crept up silently to the door and put her ear to it.
----Thirty minutes earlier----
Inuyasha felt Kagome go unconscious in his arms. 'Damn that Kouga.' He growled as he laid her softly under the blankets, pulling them up to her chin. He pressed a soft kiss to her forehead and cupped her face in his hands. A single tear drop slipped down his cheek. "I won't let you go Kagome.'
Fifteen minutes later there was a knock on the door. As Inuyasha opened it he saw Kouga and a tall, skinny man in a business suit. He knew automatically that it was Kagome's father from the color of his eyes. They had the same eyes. Kouga's smirk lit a spark under Inuyasha's furry, but he fought to control it. "What can I do for you guys?" Inuyasha asked calmly.
"Oh shut it dog breath. You know why we're here. I'm here to take back my fiancée." He pushed through Inuyasha into the house. "Where is she."
"Yes, Inuyasha, where is my daughter?" Inuyasha hated this man the moment he saw him, his eyes were filled with wickedness and greed. His daughter was a greatly sought after treasure by men and he used that to his advantage; Inuyasha hated him for that.
"Resting."
"Why would she be resting?" Her father inquired. "You didn't do anything with her, did you?" His eyes were a lit with curiosity. Kouga's lit up with anger and hatred.
"No, I didn't. She's healing from her wounds." Inuyasha sent Kouga a glare that made him smirk.
"Well we're here to take her back home, where she belongs." Her father chuckled.
"Kouga, go get her." An audible whimper came from the other side of the door at those words. The door to Inuyasha's bedroom opened and Kagome ran into Inuyasha's arms. Her tear stained face red from the tears that fell from the pain of her injuries and running. Inuyasha's arms automatically wrapped protectively around her.
A chuckle came from Kagome's father, it sent chills down her spine and cause her to curl tighter into Inuyasha's chest. "Kagome. Let's go home, or else." Kagome looked up at her father, then back to Inuyasha. Fear was stamped across her face.
Inuyasha held her to his chest. "I love you Kagome. Remember that. Go. I'll win you back." He kissed her deeply in front of both Kouga and her father. Both of their eyes went wide, a snarl ripped from Kouga's chest. Kagome blushed softly and looked up at him. Inuyasha's claws softly scrapped her wrists as she started to tear. "Don't forget what I told you." She nodded softly, fear coursed through her, but Inuyasha knew that if he didn't let her go, there would be a huge fight between him, Kouga, and her father, and Kagome didn't need to see that tonight. Inuyasha had no idea what was going to happen as soon as she left the door, but he was bound to find out.
As soon as Inuyasha let Kagome go, Kouga swept her up in his arms and walked away. "Don't plan on seeing her anytime soon Mutt Face. She's my fiancée." Kagome's father walked out the door behind Kouga, the door softly shutting behind them. As soon as Kagome was out of range, Inuyasha sank to the floor and gripped his hair. 'What have I done.'
