A/N: She looked between the men in the dark suits that were monitoring her polygraph. "No, I don't own Inuyasha. But! I do own this story and the ability to kill people!" She bursts out into maniac laughter.
A/N: I changed the name of this story, so if you refer it, please use the title 'One Love, One Heart'. Thank you!
P.S. All of you guys that reviewed the last chapter, you guys totally made my day!
------------------------------------------Chapter 6 Recap------------------------------------------------------------------
"You need sleep Kagome." He said pulling her into his arms and turning so they could lay down. He pulled the blankets up around them and laid her head in the crook of his neck. "Now sleep, my mate." He cooed softly into her ear. She nodded softly and closed her eyes. Within a minute she was sleeping softly, her breaths getting wider apart and deeper.
'Soon, Kagome, I'll make you mine. Then no one will be able to touch you.'
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inuyasha watched Kagome silently for hours before she finally stirred in his arms. When she moved Inuyasha automatically started to stroke her hair until she opened her big blue eyes. "Hey beautiful." He said softly.
A warm blush spread over her cheeks as she hid her face in his chest trying to hide it from him. Inuyasha chuckled softly as he softly pressed his lips to the crown of her head. She smiled softly into his chest and looked up at him after a few minutes. His eyes were full of love for the girl in his arms. "Kagome…" He whispered softly closing his eyes and resting his forehead on hers.
"Yes, Inuyasha?" She asked curiously.
His face lit up in a blush. "I want you to be my mate." He said pulling her tight to him.
Her face turned bright red at his words. She knew what it meant to be a demon, or half-demons mate. Her heart was warmed at the thought of him being her lifelong partner. At the thought of Kouga not being able to touch her again. That he would always be able to find her and know when she was in trouble. She blushed at the thought of it all. She looked up at him and nodded. "I want to be your mate, Inuyasha."
Inuyasha's face turned red at the thought of her being his mate forever. He thought of her with a swollen, pregnant stomach carrying his baby. She blushed when she saw how red his face was. "Not now though." He held her close to his chest and she turned her head so she could lay her ear over his heart, wrapping her arms around his waist. "I don't want to hurt you." He ran his hand down her bruised body. Anger boiled in his chest at what Kouga had done to her, he still couldn't understand how someone could hurt something this beautiful. He kissed her forehead again and buried his face in her neck. "I love you Kagome."
She smiled softly and hid her face in his shoulder. "I love you too, Inuyasha." She closed her eyes and sighed softly. "I've waited so long to hear you say that."
Inuyasha blushed brightly. "I never wanted to say anything because of Kouga, but I don't plan on letting him near you ever again." She smiled at the thought of never having to see Kouga's face again. A sudden realization hit her and she dashed off of the bed and to the window.
"What time is it?" She said frantically.
Inuyasha looked out the window and judged the cloud movements. "I'd say about 6 or 7 p.m. Why Kagome?"
She tensed in panic. "He's looking for me." She whimpered, convulsing in pain. "I-I-I" Inuyasha walked up and tilted her face toward his.
"You are not going back Kagome." He said angrily, not at her, but at the thought of how scared she was. "You're safe here." She looked up at him with tears in her eyes, thought for a moment, and then nodded.
-------------------------------------------------------------Kouga------------------------------------------------------------
Kouga's fist sailed through the air and into the wall of the school. 'Where the fuck is she! Her and Inuyasha weren't anywhere in school today. If she's with him there's going to be hell to pay.' He snarled loudly.
"Calm down, son." Shiro said calmly. "We'll find her."
"I'm not going to calm down until I have her back in my room. I'm sick of her running back to that half-breed. How many times do I have to punish her to get it across to her? How could that mutt even stand to look at her with all of my marks on her?!"
Shiro walked over and laid a hand on Kouga's shoulder. "Have you taken her purity yet, son?"
He shook his head pissed. "I was going to tonight. I am going to as soon as I get my hands on her though!"
"This is why she ran, son. You haven't completely broken her yet. She still needs to have her soul broken, but that daughter of mine has a very strong spirit. It might take more than once for you to get the message thru to her."
"She's never leaving the house again Shiro. I will not have another repeat of this!" He punched the wall harder this time. "He growled and turned to Shiro. "Let's go find her."
Shiro nodded and smiled brightly at Kouga. "You know she has a GPS chip planted in between her breasts, correct?"
Kouga's smile slid into a smirk. "Really now? That's ingenious Shiro." Both men broke into maniac laughter. "Let's get her." Shiro pulled his cell phone out of his pocket and programmed in the serial number of Kagome's chip. The phone dinged as it located her. "Well. Let us begin the hunt, Father."
---------------------------------------------------------Inuyasha------------------------------------------------------------
Kagome had fallen asleep again on the bed after Inuyasha had prepared dinner for them, leaving him alone to his thoughts. He reached over and pressed a button on the wall that put up an invisibility barrier around the house. 'I have a bad feeling.' He thought sniffing around to make sure it was still only him and Kagome at the house. When he didn't detect any other smells he went and stood outside, after a few minutes he sat down on the porch swing and looked out into the woods that surrounded them. He sat there for what seemed like hours, dozing off every once in a while.
About two hours later, Inuyasha heard voices, voices that were all to familiar. He turned and looked toward the sound of the voices, knowing that it was Kouga and Shiro. As they walked into the clearing, Inuyasha heard their confusion. "How could she be here? There's nothing here?" Kouga said, his voice full of malice and evil.
Shiro chuckled and pulled out a purifying sutra. 'Shit.' Inuyasha said running into the house, locking the door behind him, and pulling Kagome into his arms. He heard his invisibility shield fall and Kouga whistle at the work that Shiro had done, congratulating him. "Nice job, Father." He chuckled.
"Nothing to it." Shiro said. Inuyasha could feel Kagome moving against his chest.
"I-Inu?" She whispered softly, her eyes fluttering open to look at him. His face was contorted with pain and anger.
"Kagome, Kouga and your father are here. Don't make a noise. I want you to go down into the trap door under the bed and hide there. I'll come back for you." She nodded and scrambled off of his lap and under the bed and down the hatch. "I love you Kagome." He whispered softly before he left the room.
He heard a loud knock at the front door and opened it, coming face to face with Kouga and Shiro. "Well, hey boys. What's going on?" Inuyasha asked with a plastered smile.
"Cut the crap Mutt!" Kouga yelled. "Where the fuck is my woman!" Inuyasha held back the snarl in his chest.
"Who? Kagome? I haven't seen her all day. I've been here, alone."
"Don't fucking lie to me! I can smell her all over this cabin, and all over you! What did you do with her!" Kouga said gripping the front of his shirt.
Inuyasha snapped then and gripped Kouga's neck, squeezing his throat. "I won't let you touch her again. You've hurt my mate for the last time!" He screamed digging his nails into his throat.
"Now boys," Shiro said calmly. "This is no way to act." Both boys turned and looked at him snarling. "I'll take my leave then. Have fun!" He walked away into the woods.
"Now that he's gone!" Inuyasha said pulling tighter on his throat. Kouga kicked Inuyasha hard in the gut, pushing Inuyasha off of him. He doubled over as Kouga went to run past him into the house, but Inuyasha grabbed him quicker. "I will not let you touch my mate!" Inuyasha screamed.
It finally clicked in Kouga's mind the second time Inuyasha said 'mate'. "Your mate? SHE SLEPT WITH YOU!" He snarled, picking Inuyasha up by his throat. "You slept with my woman!"
Inuyasha chuckled. "I'll let you believe what you want." Kouga snarled and punched Inuyasha in the jaw. Inu just laughed and rolled his eyes. "You're going to have to try a lot harder than that dog breath."
---------------------------------------------------------Kagome-------------------------------------------------------------
Kagome took one last look at Inuyasha and climbed into the trapdoor and into the ground. She looked around and saw what looked like a totally different room. There was a chair, and a bed, and even a bathroom! She walked over to the bed and saw a note on the table next to it. She picked it up and read what it said.
My darling Kagome,
If you are down here then Kouga must have come for you. This is room is only here to keep you safe. I must protect you from him. I love you, Kagome. If I haven't already told you that. I promise I will come back for you, but for now, you will be safe from him, and safe from your father as well.
Be safe.
Love, Inuyasha.
Tears started to fall from Kagome's eyes as she re-read it. Kouga was out there right now, probably with her father, fighting Inuyasha. She knew it without being told. And it terrified her. She didn't want to think about all the different outcomes, but she knew that all of them were possible. "Be safe, Inuyasha." She whispered to herself.
She looked around the compound, her eyes drawn to the bed. Her eyes suddenly became very heavy at the thought of sleep. She tried to shake her head to stop herself from dozing, but failed. She walked over to the bed and laid down. She closed her eyes, the last thought that ran through her head was, 'Inuyasha, be safe.'
A rustling sound woke her up. She almost screamed when all she saw was a dark figure standing next to her. "Kagome." The figure said softly, turning on a light. It was Inuyasha, and he was covered in blood.
"Inuyasha! Are you okay!" She cried franticly.
"Kagome, calm down." He said softly, pulling his pants and shirt off, sitting next to her. "It's not mine."
She breathed a sigh of relief and then turned pale when the realization hit her. "Is-Is-Is he dead?"
A/N: HAHA! I left you with a cliffhanger!
I love you guys, so here's some incentive to review!
What should Inuyasha reply? Yes, Kouga's dead. OR No, He's not. Please give me reasoning for both! And if you say no, please give me an idea for what I should have happen next!
I will use the best idea in my next chapter!
Thank you all!
You guys make me smile! =]
