"It is about Rin and the western lord." Yuuriko threw the bait and he took it.
"What is it?" he asked the woman.
"I fear that if you do not take her now, then Sesshoumaru will." she lied, she knew that Sesshoumaru was of honor, he would formally marry the girl before he bed her.
"She will be mine, and he will watch as I make it so!" Kouga bellowed angrily. The very thought of not being the first to tread on such virgin territory that was contracted to him made him feel as if he would explode. He swung his arm across a table knocking it over. Yuuriko flinched a little bit.
"Rin, will only produce a full blooded heir, if after the deed is done you break the jewel that hangs round her throat." Yuuriko said to him. Kouga nodded at her and began to concoct his plan to show Sesshoumaru and Rin who she belonged to. Kouga knew that if there was any love in Sesshoumaru's heart that he would not risk Rin's health. Sesshoumaru would be able to do nothing at all. Kouga could care less, let there be war after but he would have won in the end.
"You shall see who will win." he chuckled to himself. It was only two days later that all his preparations were made. Since Kouga's kingdom was preparing to leave Sesshoumaru's court soon anyway, he did not need to keep peace. For once his marriage to Rin was final there would be no reason to stay here. Kouga watched Sesshoumaru who looked at Rin over the dinner table. It was the middle of the night when he had crept in the darkness to Rin's room. He had it silenced by one of the priestess's he owned. They all would do anything he said, for he had brainwashed them all with his charming words. There were at least eight of them in the room, with all their weapons drawn and ready.
Across the castle Sesshoumaru felt something was wrong in his bones. He rose from his bed and ran to Rin's room where he crashed into the chamber but alas he heard no sound. He saw Rin sleeping soundly in her bed a wave of relief rushed over him as he sighed.
"You sound relieved." a deep coarse voice said, Sesshoumaru had been so worried when he rushed over that he had not paid attention to the foreign scents present in Rin's room.
"What are you doing here, Kouga?" he snarled dangerously.
"I've come to take what's mine." he said.
"I'll rip your throat if you touch her." he spat violently coming closer to him. Then he felt it, a burning power restraining him. He watched the purple energy that threaten to purify him if he dared to move another step closer to Kouga.
"Why do you want her so bad?" he asked, Kouga heard it in his voice the desperation.
"She's intoxicating and beautiful. Her dowry is large and she will bear me strong pups." Kouga said.
"I…love…her, please." Sesshoumaru had never humbled himself to anyone in his life and now he couldn't do anything but that in an attempt to save her.
"That's too bad then isn't it. You have been stealing kisses that should be mine and now I will show you, who she belongs to." he spoke as he walked over to the futon she laid in.
"I am begging you to leave her be." Sesshoumaru said his head hanging. Kouga laid his hand on her hip and allowed it to roam to her waist then closer to her chest.
"I think, I shall not." he said as his hand caressed her. She moved in her sleep with a soft moan escaping her lips. Yuuriko was standing outside the door.
"I will give you my lands, just leave her." he begged, Kouga was nearly at a loss for words at this offer.
"Tempting, but not as tempting as this." he said pulling the covers back from her, she awoke with a start and recoiled to a corner of the bed. She looked around the room which was lit by the burning purple energy. She looked at Sesshoumaru who had fear in his eyes and at Kouga who watched her with that menacing smile.
"I see my bride to be is now awake and ready." Kouga laughed, Rin attempted to use her spiritual abilities to keep him away but felt a burning pain every time she did. She tried to run for the door but Kouga grabbed her ankle as she did so causing her to fall to the ground mere inches away from Sesshoumaru. She looked into his honey eyes and then looked away. Kouga pulled her towards him.
"Why are you running, future wife?" he asked as he started to undo her robe. She pulled herself away from him and tried to run again but he caught her and threw her to the ground with one hand. She screamed as he pulled the yukata off of her.
"Please! Don't do this to me!" She was exposed to all. Rin fought against him but he instead bound her hands with the robe, they were now behind her back.
"Why princess, you are mine all the same!" he laughed as his hands groped her.
"Do what you will, just not with him here!" she cried.
"No, you will both get what you deserve for stealing from me!" he said. His hands slipped between her legs.
"Please! Don't! Please! Stop!" she cried as he touched her.
"Stop, this!" Sesshoumaru screamed, he fought against the power which burned his skin with each pull away. Kouga slapped Rin across the face hard and the smell of her blood filled Sesshoumaru's senses. His eyes began to glow red as he tried to break free. Kouga started to touch Rin all over and she began to sob the sounds of her moans that were also whimpers driving Sesshoumaru to tears.
"See, Sesshoumaru, see how her body responds even though her pretty lips say no?" he asked him as his hands cupped and played with her. Sesshoumaru refused to look up, having to hear her sobs and the moans that she could not control was enough for him. His tears slipped freely from his eyes.
"Don't look at me, Sesshoumaru." she begged with shuddering breaths. Kouga was angered by this and lifted her by her hair.
"I want you to watch or I will kill her." he said raising a razor sharp claw to her neck.
"Please, don't look at me!" she sobbed, she could feel his claw lightly dig into her neck. Sesshoumaru looked up and saw her. Her face so full of shame, her eyes so full of misery, and her body responding to the touches that Kouga was distributing. He slid his hand between her legs and he watched Rin wince as he pressed his finger in. Sesshoumaru was unable to tear his eyes away. He wanted to die himself. He had never felt so useless in his entire life. He heard watched her back arch as she moaned. The glittering blue jewel that he had wondered about for so long shimmering around her neck, turning black. Kouga threw her on the floor and undid his pants and in one fluid motion forced himself inside her. Sesshoumaru watched in horror as Rin cried, sobs wracking her body which was already being rocked back and forth by the rhythm of Kouga's hips.
"Don't look at me…please…don't look at me." she cried over and over again, but Kouga's claw remained at her throat until he had released his seed deep within her. He ripped the jewel from her neck and smashed it in his hand. Her blood curdling scream was heard as she twisted in excruciating pain on the floor. Her body shook and her fingernails became claws, her hair grew longer, and her hazel eyes turned to burgundy. The seal that her mother had placed on her demon blood had been broken. The awe that the other priestess's were in left a moment for Sesshoumaru to break free of his bindings.
