Kagome had never been enraged, ecstatic, and exhausted all at the same time. She lay sweating, still chained, as Inuyasha, who seemed to have neverending stamina, drew lazy circles up her left arm, the arm closest to him. She'd completely forgotten everything before this intense fuck, especially the whole reason she'd done it in the first place—aside from the fact that she was horny, anyway.
With a sigh, her head leaned to the side, away from Inuyasha, but this seemingly inconsequential action turned out to be the luckiest of his time here. This way, he couldn't see her eyes widen in shock—and thus wouldn't get suspicious—as he moved his claw into the keyhole of her cuffs, probably thinking she was asleep.
The sly bastard! She thought moderately happily. He was going to free me in my sleep! He probably thinks I wouldn't be a problem like that... Her eyes narrowed triumphantly and a malicious smirk formed on her face, though she tried her best not to let her jubliance seep into her otherwise clear scent. Immediately after her wrist was free, she clasped her fingers tightly around Inuyasha's neck, taking advantage of his momentary shock to snap free of the other three hindrances.
Kagome laughed menacingly, waggling her eyebrows as she straddled, then strangulated him. "Oh, you naughty, naughty boy." She chuckled, her voice low and mockingly seductive. Inuyasha stared up at her impassively—not for long, she mused, licking her lips anxiously as she thought of how delicious his blood would taste. "All that teasing, and look who's on the submissive end of the rope now."
"Are you quite done?"
"I'm going to bathe in your blood."
"I'm not sure I have that much. Now are you done?" Sighing in annoyance that he hadn't died yet, she nodded. "Good." She never saw his arm wind back. In moments, she was smacked into the locked wooden door, grunting at the pain of the many scars of his uncontrollable claws raking her back. Inuyasha got onto his feet, crossing his arms as she snarled, moving to attack him again. He merely dodged her, letting her claws unintentionally tear up her own bed. "You move like a newborn, and think like one as well." Inuyasha scoffed, angering the girl even further. But instead of attacking, Kagome stood there, poised furiously, her mind reeling.
What the hell?! Why isn't he dead?! Did the bastard expect this of me all along?!
"You're so predictable." Inuyasha chuckled. "Be serious, now. Do you really think I'd just let you go free and not expect something like this of you?"
"You're enough of an idiot to prove me right!" Kagome barked. "Just because, for once, you had the insight to throw me off, don't think I'm fucking "predictable"!"
"Look, if this is about your being hungry, I'll get you something to eat." Inuyasha reasoned. "I wouldn't be enough to satiate you, and we both know it. Your first priority was much too obviously sexual gratification—tell me I'm wrong." Kagome's tense shoulders relaxed only slightly.
"You're wrong." She mumbled, but Inuyasha had won and she knew it. He chuckled, shaking his head.
"Ah, but you're hungry." He teased. "Listen. Do you even remember why I came here?"
"Horny." Kagome shrugged, cocking her eyebrow.
"Well...yes, that, but I initially came to tell you some important information that I don't think you can handle right now. So this is my proposal. Come with me and stay at my apartment until you turn back to normal. That way, I can keep track of you and your feeding habits, and you won't have to spend your time here, chained up like a wild animal."
"I don't know about all that. How do I know you won't rape me or something?" Inuyasha stared at her, mildly startled, then he noticed the glint of amusement in her eyes and laughed.
"Like you wouldn't welcome it."
"True enough." Kagome smirked, and raked a hand through her hair, musing. "Well...I suppose it wouldn't hurt. I could leave my traitorous mother a note."
"Why traitorous?" Inuyasha grinned, pulling on his clothes.
"She's got to the one who chained me like that."
"Then...here's an idea for revenge. Don't leave the note."
"Why is that vengeful?" Kagome asked curiously, going over to her dresser drawer and taking out some clothes of her own.
"Let her worry about where you've gone. She'll have a conniption, and you'll have your revenge. Then later I can say I found you and you're safe and sound." He explained, then added sotto voce, "...and I might just get that screw I've been waiting for."
"I heard that, you perv." Kagome rolled her eyes.
"Didn't intend for you not to."
Ignoring the jibe, Kagome continued, "What is this obsession you have with my mother? I mean, I know she's pretty and all—of course, that's in the bloodline—but honestly." Inuyasha shrugged.
"She rejected me. I don't take that well."
"So...this is an ego thing." Kagome confirmed dryly. "I should've figured as much. Males are all alike, even the ones with an iota of sense."
"Aw, you think I have sense? I'm so flattered."
"I said an iota. And you're beginning to change my perspective on that." Inuyasha, dressed completely, watched as she put on clothing.
"I suggest you bring a change of clothes as well. How far are you into your transformation?"
"First day. But as soon as I started coughing, my insane mother drugged me with cough medicine and, apparently, then practically hogtied me."
"So how much longer do you think you have?"
"I guess the rest of the week."
"Wonderful." Once she was completely dressed, in a low-cut, black cotton muscle shirt, and a pair of red polyester-cotton short-shorts. "Uh...you sure you wanna go out looking like that? It's a little chilly out."
"So?" Kagome shrugged. "It's not like the cold bothers me."
"Okay...I guess you're going shoeless as well."
"Shoes are hindrances contrived by humans to slow us down." She said monotonously, as though she'd been asked numerous times before.
"...Right. Shall we go, then?"
"You know it."
Kagome certainly received her fair share of attention as she walked along the dark streets alongside Inuyasha, licking her lips hungrily, her virtually empty stomach rumbling for all (with supernatural hearing, that is) to hear.
"How about that one?" She pointed excitedly to a plump man coming down the sidewalk, staring at her, obviously exulted to gain the attention of such a beautiful woman.
Amused, Inuyasha shook his head. "Nope...not here, not now. I told you, wait until we get to my apartment. Then I'll hunt for you."
"But why can't I at least go?!" She complained wearily. "I feel like I'm going to die of hunger!"
"Hey, cutie, I bet I could get rid of that hunger." Some stranger grinned at her, waggling his eyebrows. Kagome looked at him, then at Inuyasha, who merely shrugged.
"Do that, then follow my scent to the apartment. You know it, right? Or should I give you a piece of me?"
"I'll know it." Kagome waved him off, grinning back at the stranger with more of a predatory feel to her expression.
"Now, don't get out of hand!" Inuyasha warned.
"Alright, alright!" Kagome huffed impatiently, and he walked away from her. Rolling her eyes, she turned back to the stranger. "So...you say you can...satisfy my hunger. Is that true?"
"Sure is." He confirmed proudly. Kagome took a deep sniff of the air, salivating at the pungent aroma of his blood, the red sustenance that charged hot through his veins.
"Well...what do you say we...go somewhere so I can get my fill of you?" Kagome was something akin to a newborn, but she at least had the good sense to do this somewhere she wouldn't be seen eating. Luckily, nighttime further blanketed even the darkest of dark spots, so it wouldn't be hard to find some privacy. "Ooh—the movie theater!"
"You wanna do it in the back of the movie theater?" He gawked, then laughed incredulously, glad he'd been so bold with this freak. "Damn, that's kinky!"
"Kinky's my middle name." She answered simply, and the two headed for the nearest theater. Of course, Kagome felt mildly inconvenienced, but she kept convincing herself it would all be worth it to sate her undernourishment. She was so focused on this thought, she hadn't noticed she was moving until the two were actually seated in the far back of the theater, the emptiest section.
Perfect, Kagome thought with an unseen smile of wickedly.
"Okay, I'm ready!" He giggled giddily, frantically undoing his belt, but Kagome placed a cold hand on his arm, shaking her head.
"That won't be necessary." She murmured, and before he could angrily retort, she moved in for the kill...literally.
Having anticipated a loud, plaintive sound, Kagome decided to cut out the middleman altogether and bit into the thick vein of his neck, instantly silencing any sounds he may have made. The vampire woman nearly moaned in long-awaited rapture, reveling in the sweetness of the human blood she had yet to taste for so long. Greedily, she sucked at his neck, her frozen yet inexplicably soft tongue collecting every single drop of blood that oozed from the two large punctures she had created. So ravenous was she, she even violently slashed his neck in order to gather even more of the liquid she so craved.
"Heh..." She licked the blood from her face once she was done with a chuckle. "Seems as though my eyes were bigger than my stomach on this particular venture. That, or this man was just plain bigger than I thought. Oh, well." With a final lick of the corpse's neck, Kagome strode out of the theater, as if nothing had just happened.
Outside, she took a long whiff of the night, sifting through the many other annoying stenches to find Inuyasha's distinctive—yet peculiar—smell of thimbleberries. Once she had its trail, she was off in a blur of pale skin.
What's also extremely weird, Kagome thought absently, sniffing at her fingers, is that I'm starting to take on that smell as well. Huh. Must be an aftereffect of all the sex. She smirked. After all, we have been having a lot of it. Ah, well—I'm sure it'll wear off eventually.
The trail, about twenty or so minutes later, brought her to an apartment complex much like her own. "Isn't that convenient." She murmured, walking inside. The first sight to grace her eyes—and she used the phrase sarcastically—was Inuyasha, leaning against the wall beside the elevator.
"About time." He smirked. "I was starting to think you'd lost control of yourself."
"I'm not an idiot, fool." Kagome replied breezily, approaching him. "I think I know how to feed without overeating, but I greatly appreciate your concern."
"As you should." The two boarded the elevator and Inuyasha pushed the button for the fourth floor. Kagome looked around, lazily surveying her surroundings.
"Nice place you live in."
"Well, you live here, too." Inuyasha chuckled.
"Oh? I never paid attention. I just remember going to my mother's apartment and staying there until I'd transformed."
"Nothing wrong with a little change...I'm sure you agree."
"More or less." She shrugged, and the elevator stopped. As they headed for Inuyasha's apartment, he grinned, "Excuse the current state of my residence. It may be a little...disorganized."
"Why would that be?" Inuyasha opened his apartment door and Kagome blinked. "This place isn't disorganized at all!" She huffed.
"You sound disappointed." Inuyasha laughed, amused.
"No...I was just gearing up for a real mess. Now here I am, in this totally clean house."
"I know. I meant my private library...it seems some human's been dipping into my personal journals." Inuyasha murmured, staring blankly at her. She snorted.
"What are you looking at me for? I have nothing to do with that girl's actions."
"You're just lucky you're not human right now, or I just might strangle you...kind of like you attempted earlier." Kagome scowled, crossing her arms.
"That would've worked if you weren't so godforsaken resilient." She sat down on his couch, flipping on the television.
"Admit it...you love it." Inuyasha murmured in her ear, suddenly right beside her. Kagome was instantly reminded of their intimate time together earlier, and it sent a chill down her spine. She turned soft, silvery eyes onto him, realizing his face was completely serious.
"And...if I don't?" She asked quietly.
"Then I'll be whatever you want me to be." Before she could express the proper amount of shock at this affectionate confession, he kissed her.
Black Ice: Wow. I just read back over this thing, and I was like...well...wow.
Blood Rain: (Grins) We are some horrible-ass people, ain't we?
Black Ice: No, you're a horrible-ass person. I'm the innocent bystander who had little to do with this chapter. Except the funny parts, of course...
Blood Rain: Forgive Ice if she seems a bit...well...distant. Her boyfriend/ex-boyfriend/complicated relationship member just came over. She's coming off of a high or something. I don't know.
Black Ice: (blushes) Shut up! God! You tell a bitch one thing and she twists it into a whole 'nother sentence!
