Kit came back soon after with blood covering her hands

Kit came back soon after with blood covering her hands.

Kouga was the only one awake as he looked up when Kit entered. "Are you ok?" he asked.

She nodded and laid down in the corner. He nodded back and returned to looking at the ground. Kit scratched where the cuts where on her stomach.

"Kit, don't do that you'll only aggravate your wounds." Kouga said not looking up.

"They itch," she said as she continued.

"It's going to, but if you keep that up you'll end up even worse." he said.

She stopped at looked at Kouga. He still had his head down but was listening closely.

Kit got up and sat down in front on him. "Are you ok?"

He just shrugged. "I've been through worse." he said.

"Why won't you look at me?"

At this he did, he had a normal look but it was as if he was trying to hide something from Kit.

She stroked his cheek with her hand. "What's the matter?"

He looked a little bit shocked but relaxed at her touch as he sighed. "Beside the fact that I thought I lost you again and that Karena is about to skin me alive, nothing at all." he said.

"Why are you so scared of losing me?"

He shrugged. "I don't know why but whenever I see you hurt or something like what happened earlier I start to get worried and somewhat scared." he said.

She looked at him confused.

He just shook his head. "Forget it." he said as he looked away.

She crawled into his lap. He looked down at her confused. She laid down and went to sleep. He watched her then smiled softly, but then looked up to see Karena watching him. He blushed and looked away.

Karena just smirked. 'So wolfy boy does have a heart.' she thought before she got up and walked out of the hut only to jump up on the roof and lay back and watch the stars.

The next morning Kouga woke up to movement it his lap.

He blinked a few times and looked down. He saw Kit asleep, but turning about to keep the sun from getting in her eyes. He blushed slightly but pulled her up and put his arm to where he was blocking Kit's eyes. She snuggled against him and stopped moving.

He blushed again but then sighed softly. 'It's only a matter of time before Karena skins me alive.' he thought. She shifted again, her lower half brushing against his member. Kouga froze and tensed as he squeezed his hand shut. 'Ok please don't do that again.' he thought.

Kit moved more as she started to wake up.

"Kit, are you awake?" he asked his voice strained a little bit. She didn't answer. He closed his eyes and tried to control himself.

She kept moving as she tried to fall back into a deep sleep.

Kouga couldn't take this any more as he quickly got Kit off of him and then quickly left to solve his little problem.

Kit woke up to see him leaving. She got up and hugged him from behind. "Where are you going?"

He groaned, "No where far, I'll be back in a few." he said as he closed his eyes.

"I'm not letting you go until you tell me where and why you are leaving." she said tightening her grip.

Karena who was still on the roof was hearing this whole ordeal so she started to snicker. Kouga groaned again. "I'm just going into the woods for a little bit." he said.

"Why,"

Karena started to laugh so hard she was silent.

Kit walked in front of him and put her hands on his chest. Kouga closed his eyes and bit his lip. Kit was not helping his situation at all.

"What's the matter, you're not hurt are you?" she asked worried.

"No I'm fine." he said somewhat strained.

"Then why are you acting so strange?"

Kouga let out an uneasy sigh. 'Rena, stop it with your damn laughing and help me.' he begged in his head. "Certain reasons." he said.

"Why don't you just tell me it can't be that bad?" This time Kit heard Karena laugh. She growled and pushed Kouga against the wall. "Tell me what the hell is going on." she said pissed.

"Besides the fact you're not helping my situation at all." he said as he tried to ignore certain images that wanted to enter his mind.

She growled fiercely at him. He sighed as he leaned down and whispered in her ear. She smiled now that he would tell her.

"Since you were in my lap and you were moving around a lot that kinda caused a little problem." he whispered.

She looked at him confused. "What do you mean?"

He sighed once more. "Did Karena ever explain to you what happens when a male gets excited?" he asked her in a whisper.

She cocked her head to the side. "Excited?"

He groaned again. "Can you please go have Karena explain this to you cause I really need to go." he said with a pleading look.

She shook her head. "Just tell me what's wrong."

He leaned down and whispered in her ear once more. "Because of what you did I want to take you, but I'm trying to leave and relieve some… stress so that doesn't happen." he said.

"Take me where?" she asked still confused.

Kouga groaned again. "Mating." he whispered hoping she would get the hint now.

She blushed and looked at him.

"Now do you see why?" he asked.

She slapped him and went on the roof with Karena.

Karena looked up when she saw her sister come near her and started to laugh again.

She glared at her before crawling in her lap.

"You know Kit that technically was your fault." she said as she stroked Kit's hair and then scratched behind her ears.

Kouga ran out of the hut and into the woods. Karena saw this and started to laugh again, as Kit glared at him.

Karena sighed as she scratched Kit behind her left ear. "Imtoo-san at least he tried to get away so it wouldn't have happened." she said. She blushed and laid her head back down. "I defiantly need to teach you about wolf customs and him about fox customs." Karena said with a sigh.

Twenty minutes later Kouga came back looking a lot less stressed.

Karena had to resist the urge to laugh again. "Feeling better Kouga?" she asked when he was close enough, he just looked away.

"Yeah." he said with a slight blush.

Kit glared at him.

"Kit, that's enough of that," Karena whispered.

She jumped off the roof and punched Kouga in the arm before looking up at Karena. "Do you want to go find a spring?"

Karena laughed softly as Kouga rubbed his arm. She jumped down and nodded but headed into the hut and came back out holding something. Kouga now had a large bump on his head. Karena shook her head as she pushed Kit to the nearest spring she knew was near by. Kit picked up a rock and through it at him.

"Kit, didn't I just say that was enough." Karena said as she adjusted the bundle in her arms and steered Kit away.

She glared at Kouga until he was out of sight.

Karena sighed as she stopped at the edge of a hot spring.

"That bastard, how dare he even think that?" Kit said pissed.

"You're the one who got him hard so it's not his fault." Karena said with a sigh as she placed the bundle down where it wouldn't get wet.

"I didn't do anything, I was asleep." she said crossing her arms.

Karena sighed once more. "Kit, you do realize that you move around a lot in your sleep and you were in his lap so yeah you kinda did." Karena said as she placed her hand in the water when she knelt down by the edge.

"Well made if he wasn't such a perv then... then..." Kit said blushing.

Karena had her back turned to Kit but smirked. "Kit, Miroku is a perv, Kouga is just a cocky wolf demon who has a lot of pride, and when he was explaining to you earlier cause you kept looking at him confused would be my guess, he told you the best way he thought you would understand."

"But I've just know him for two days and he already wants in my pants." Kit said blushing even more.

"Kit, if I'm not mistaken you were the one who jumped him, straddling his waist, and licking his nose the minute you saw him." Karena said as she put her feet in the water. She blushed but didn't say any thing. "I rest my case." Karena said as she sat close to the water letting her feet soak.

Kit pushed her in. Karena grabbed the front of Kit's out and pulled her in also which caused both girls to be drenched. Kit looked pissed and climbed out. Karena got out also looking steamed. Kit shook like a dog to dry off and getting Rena wetter in the process.

Karena glared at her sister as she rung out her hair. "Lucky for you Inuyasha found us some clothes to change into so we aren't wearing kimonos any more." Karena said sighing.

Kit looked up at her confused.

Karena walked over to the bundle and opened it as she motioned for Kit to come.

She sighed and walked over to her sister.

Karena pulled out an outfit that looked like a pure white kimono with a yin yang symbol on the back of it as she also pulled out a pair of black pants and black shoes with a black sash as she went behind a tree and changed into the outfit coming out only a few minutes later tying the sash around her waist the kimono had slits up to the top of her hips.

Kit just stared at her.

Karena blinked as she looked at Kit. "What?" she asked.

She stood up and walked back to the hut.

Karena looked confused as she grabbed the outfit that Kit was supposed to change into and followed Kit.

Kit hummed to herself as she walked.

Karena was standing beside her sister and looked at her confused but just shrugged as she looked forward again, Karena didn't even have the sash tied in the back but in a knot at the side.

"What do we do know?" Kit asked still looking forward.

"I guess head back to the others, since it seems I wont be able to deal with you or Kouga so I'm just going to have to let you two deal with it your selves." Karena said also looking ahead.

"What do you mean 'deal?'" Kit asked.

"I mean you two are going to have to come to an understanding yourselves, in other words talk to understand the other." Karena said with a sigh.

Kouga walked down the path and to the girls.

"Yes Kouga?" Karena asked when he got close enough.

"Can I uh... talk to Kit... alone?" he asked trying to hide his blush.

"That's up to her." Karena said with a blank look.

"I guess," she said looking away.

"Alright," Karena said as she walked away.

Kit just stood there not looking at him.

"Kit, abo...about earlier..." Kouga started but trailed off as he looked away.

She tapped her foot impatiently.

"Look I'm sorry about what I said but that was the only way I thought you would understand why I wanted to leave so badly." he said still not looking at her.

She looked at him and sighed. "It's ok. I've just..." she blushed "never been with a guy... I'm you were my first kiss..."

Kouga blushed. "Yeah sorry about that also since I'm the leader of the wolf clan I make others submit if they challenge me and you were challenging me very well and I didn't mean to do that." he said still not looking at her.

She hugged him. This shocked him as he looked at her. She purred against his chest.

He just smiled as he wrapped his arms around her gently and hugged her back.

She looked up at him with her big blue eyes.

He looked back at her. "Yeah?" he asked. She kissed his cheek before going to find Rena.

He watched but smiled again and then followed when Karena shouted. "Alright you two get your asses here this second cause we are leaving!"

Kit sat down and scratched her ear with her hind foot.

Kouga snickered as he walked and then stopped by Kit. "Why does Karena seem so ticked?" he asked.

Kit shrugged and jumped on Kouga's back.

Kouga shrugged also as he carried Kit the rest of the way.

She hugged his head while purring against him.

He smiled again as the hut came into view along with a ticked and impatient looking Karena.

Kit looked up at her waved, with a big goofy smile across her face.

Karena sighed but gave a weak smile before looking impatient again. "Come on we need to hurry and get back to the others quickly." she said.

"Why," Kouga asked.

Karena rolled her eyes. "Two reasons why." she said "One because I am beyond annoyed because of what has happened."

"What's the other reason?" Kit asked wagging her tail.

"Look at how long we have let Inuyasha and Sesshomaru out of our sights and are no where near them." she finished.

The smile slid off of Kit face.
