Naraku growled, slamming his fists onto his desk causing his lackeys to jump in fear; a few ducked behind anything they could to hide. "Why would he react that way, boss?" Kagura asked slowly.

"It wasn't him." He snapped. "That warning came from his beast." He turned away looking out the window behind him. "It's caught her scent, probably from Taisho spending time with her then seeing his son, but that wouldn't have stirred such a reaction." He narrowed his eyes, thinking. "If he hadn't met her yet, why would it be protective of her? What happened?"

"The scent would have drew it's attention…" Kagura added. "And the rumor going around is Mr. Taisho is dating her…that could have provoked it."

"Yes, but that damn demon nearly choked me! There is more to it than that." Naraku growled. He signed. "Kanna."

A young girl with white hair holding a mirror stepped forward. "Yes, Master?"

"Show me Sesshomaru."

She looked down at the mirror which swirled with smoke, but nothing appeared. "I cannot find him, Master. He is hidden from me as the girl is."

Naraku turned, facing her. "You were able to see him last week, what's wrong now?!"

She shook her head, "I have no knowledge of this."

Naraku howled, throwing his desk across the room scattering the lackeys as it broke into pieces hitting the wall.

…}{…

Taisho handed Inuyasha another drink shaking his head at the young half demon as he tried to keep from laughing again. After he had explained that Rin Sakura was Sesshomaru's mate and Inuyasha figured out his father wasn't joking, he started laughing.(so hard he fell out of his chair)

"Finished?"

Inuyasha smiled. "Come on, dad, the Ice Prince himself; a human mate?" He shook his head. "Come on dad, him just having a mate is shocking, but a human one…" He smiled bigger. "That's just irony in and of its self."

"I know that son, but I also know what his inner beast will do if he denies her."

Inuyasha frowned. "My beast didn't give me that much problem with Kagoma. What could go wrong?"

Taisho nodded, "You are a half demon and you don't hate human as bad as Sesshomaru. He'll fight it until his demon takes over and if that happens with Rin around males, it could turn ugly; any male around her would be slaughtered."

"You do realize that you're on that list since you're…" He smiled. "Dating her."

Taisho smirked. "I'm slowly awaking his beast to her with her scent on me and the lovely pictures that little imp servant got for him. As long as I'm the only threat he sees there will be no problem when he meets her in person right before the Christmas party next week."

"And he'll kill you."

Taisho shrugged "I can handle his rages. I'm also, keeping her safe; I know someone is out to get her."

"You mean what happened at her old apartment?"

Taisho chuckled. "I should have known you would two would have looked her up." He nodded. "Yes, I was there when someone shattered it." He frowned. "I have a bad feeling Naraku is involved."

"Naraku? What would he want with a human?"

Taisho shook his head. "That is the mystery, isn't it?" He looked down at his watch. "I have to go get ready, Rin is cooking tonight." He smiled. "I might give Sesshomaru a visit afterwards."

Inuyasha smirked, "You're enjoying this way too much."

…}{…

Sesshomaru slowly came around, feeling something warm and soft curled against him. Still half asleep, he drew it closer, feeling the most content he had ever felt in his life. He was just falling asleep when he picked up the soft sound of a door opening and his father's voice.

"Rin?"

Sesshomaru opened his eyes to look down at the young girl lying in his arms; naked. His foggy mind started to clear, remembering everything that had happened. He spotted the bit mark already healed on her neck. Frustrated, he slipped away from the bed, and pulled on his boxers.

"Rin, where are you?!"

Sesshomaru jerked at the sound of his father's voice once more. His beast was stirring again, growling at the reminder that his father was the one dating this girl; the same girl he had just marked as his mate. He stormed from the room and down the hall, meeting his father in the living room.

"Sesshomaru?" Taisho exclaimed, taking note that his eldest son was only wearing his boxers. He set the flowers and gift bag he had brought for Rin down on a side table. He looked back to his son, seeing the once golden eyes were now glowing red.

Sesshomaru's beast roared and rushed at the Great Dog Demon, trying to punch him.

…}{…

She was strapped down to the cold steel table again. The bright lights overhead blinding her, but her was able to make out two forms standing over her; arguing.

"Extracting the pheromones cells from one and implanting them into another is no simple task, sir."

"I don't care if it's simple or not!" The evil voice growled. "I want it done."

"It could harm her…"

"Do it or I will slice you down here and now."

The form on the right nodded and got work, lifting a large needle. "It's going to take time to get it to work right."

Rin screamed as she felt the sharp jab in her neck.

…}{…

Rin woke with a start finding herself in the bedroom of her new apartment. She felt her neck, finding a mark. She jumped from the bed, rushing to the mirror to find a bit mark. She sighed, thankful that it had all been a dream. However, once the relief faded, she frowned trying to remember how she got the mark.

Slowly, she turned around finding the small blood stain on her sheets; evidence that she had lost her virginity. She remembered the man from that afternoon and looked around, finding no sign of the demon, except for his clothes scattered around the bed. She grabbed her housecoat from the foot of the bed and ran from the room.

Skidding to a stop in the living, she found Taisho, standing over someone on the floor. The place was torn apart as if a fight had happened. "Mr. Taisho?"

The old demon turned to her, frowning. "Evening Rin." He looked down at his feet. "I take it you met my son, Sesshomaru."

Rin's eyes went wide and her grip on the housecoat collar tightened. "You're…you're…son?" She had sex with Mr. Taisho's son! The world started to spin and fade.

…}{…

I hope you all had a good Dec. 25. Mine was good missed with a little weird. But that's not what you want to know.

Another chapter and look what we have. Naraku is pissed, Inuyasha is caught up, Sesshomaru has come too and tried punching his father, another piece of the Mystery is revealed, and Rin, well she fated.

You know, it seemed like a lot more. Oh, well, onto the reviews.

Review Corner

theharleygirl2010: Thank you, I'm glad you're enjoying it. Taisho is having too much fun toying with his son. I don't think he planned him ravishing her without her knowing who he really was, though who knows, it might work out.

ShadowXMoonlight: Thank you

Koko81: Thank you

RinSess13: Glad you're enjoying it. Keep reading to find out.

Lady Shenzuki: I did warn that there would twists to this tale.

Taraah36: I try to please. He didn't get much of a chance to think about having his father show up and his demon wanting to kick his ass. If I don't throw Naraku in there once in a while, I would lose him, can't have him popping out of nowhere when Sesshoomaru might be pulling his head out his A**. I'll think she's be carrying more than just his scent.

Katy: I will do my best, but fluffy isn't the easiest demon to handle when writing a story.

Carmen: What a beast wants, a beast gets…

Guest: At least you didn't take him on like another reviewer did in one of my other stories. He came back with a broken nose. Thank you.

Jj: Thank you

Add note: come on give me more, I love hearing from you. I feel bad when all I can reply with is thank you, glad you're enjoying it. I love chatting with you all.
