SAVING ME

CHAPTER 18 – Sesshomaru's Wife

Kikyo Takahashi looked at her elegantly polished nails with disdain, even though she had done the manicure but three hours prior she was already displeased, even though there was nothing remotely wrong with the expensive service she had received. She rubbed her bulging stomach and sighed in disgust, she had never wanted to get pregnant, but Sesshomaru had demanded that she have the child, putting off radio therapy until after the birth. They had caught her leukemia in the early stages and she had already been four months pregnant at the time, after husband had demanded an heir from her threatening divorce, a thing she could not have afforded considering she had signed a prenuptial agreement. She also thought that this child would have its uses as well for she would receive a far larger settlement plus child support if he ever threatened divorce again she thought with a smirk.

The door to the apartment opened with a soft click and from her perch on the leather coach she looked up and her dark brown eyes met with striking green ones. She frowned, it had been three months since their last interlude, at that time she had been bordering on 'showing' where her pregnancy was concerned. She had ended the affair then and they had not spoken since, until he had called her suddenly, out of the blue and said they needed to speak least he called her husband. They had been lovers for over ten years, far longer than she had even known Sesshomaru. He was filthy rich too, however his money had not come from 'legal' means. Kikyo, in all her life, as the daughter of a prostitute had always wanted to be the respectable wife of a wealthy man; a woman who screamed class and as Sesshomaru's wife she had gotten that but she had never loved him.

"What do you want?" she asked the green eyed god that stood before her. She had never been able to resist his charm but now, he would have to be excluded from her life permanently; for her husband was beginning to catch on.

"Is the child mine?" he asked in a flat voice and she rose with a smirk on her lips while his eyes narrowed.

"No, there is not the slightest chance." She stated and watched his face as it morphed into anger and somehow, it brought a thrill to her and she laughed, hard and harsh as she had never laughed before until it was cut off by the force of his fingers wrapping themselves around her throat. She looked up at him with wide eyes before smiling, she knew he wouldn't kill her in this method…murder was too obvious for this man and she wait until he slowly released her, smiling.

"I knew you wouldn't kill a woman as open as this…" she stated with a cocky smile, rising to her feet and frowned as she noticed the smile creeping on her face.

"Your right!" he whispered and jumped atop her, forcing her mouth open and squeezing a liquid inside as she struggled.

"That's why I brought this, you deceitful bitch!" he swore and released her.

She was dead before he left the room…along with the premature babe from her womb.

AUTHOR'S NOTE: Thanks for all the reviews, I really welcomed them…expected a little more but lol…I'm still very happy. Another spoiler, the story is almost at the middle. PLEASE READ AND REVIEW.

DIVINE INTERVENTION will be updated soon…after my exams though, the story is not a drabble thus the chapters are long and require editing which, I'm not going to do…it will be left to my prospective beta and that's the only reason I haven't updated it yet or published my 2 new one shots and me other drabble series.

Reviews:

Tencharms: Next chapter will be a Rin/Sesshomaru chappie but after that it's gonna be some more flash back.

Delsan 13: Thanks for the wishes, I need them lol. And yes I'd like to think Sesshomaru has started to develop some feelings for her…he just doesn't know what those feelings are yet lol.

Jolie Luv: I kinda envisioned Rin in this story as a person who isn't thinking logically because of her experiences. All she is trying to do is get away really and after the next few chapters, you will see why. ^_^

Firefox Vixen: Thank you for reviewing ^_^ I'm pleased to know you like the story. Lol.

Ok my wonderful reviewers I have a favor to ask:

RIGHT NOW IN JAMAICA (my home), IT'S 11:00 pm May 5th, when you leave your reviews upon reading this chapter I want to know what time is it where you are at the moment you send your review. ^_^ it will be so cool…..
