A/N- As usual, I apologize for the delay. I am now fully over that flu, and back to school. Once I got my notebook back, I found that instead of that half chapter I had written out, I had less than that, so since tuesday, I've been revising, and writting the restof chapter 36. And here we are :) Let me know what you think :)

~Sesshomaru~

Those words of hers sent him over the edge.

Who said I wanted you to be gental? Her hoarse, pleasure filled voice rang in his mind, driving him mad. He ravished her flower eagerly, bathing in the pleasure of her moans. He felt her writh under his gental, yet firm grip on her body. His eyes flitted up, catching her own, hazed eyes, seeing her lust and want that laid there. If filled him with joy to see her as she was, feeling as she was, because of him. For him.

Slowly, his eyes still entrapping hers, he entered a single diget into her core, feeling her slick walls. Her moans filled the room, making Sesshomaru harder than he had ever been. He increased his pace, soon adding another, and then one more finger to his movements, his thumb working on her clit.

"Sesshomaru!" She gasped and he felt she was coming close. He began to move faster.

"Yes my sweet Kagome, let yourself fall!" He purred softly to her, and comenced lapping up her honey flavored juices as she shattered, screaming his name for the world to hear.

He kissed his way up her body, leaving goosebumps in his wake. Sesshomaru carfully nipped at her soft earlobe, and growled softly in her ear.

"Was that your first orgasum Ka-go-me?" He felt her body shudder as shiveres were sent down her spine in reaction to his voice, swelling his pride. She entangled her fingers into his fine hair.

"Mhmmm." She paused, "But I'm more than fairly certain, I said not to be gental." She giggled sexualy, earning a low apriciative moan from the painfully erect demon hovering above her.

"This Sesshomaru did not realize he was being as such." He licked her neck, and Kagome gasped.

"Now, I'm sure the Great Demon Lord of the Western lands Sesshomaru can be anything but gental." She giggled again, and then stopped. He pulled back to look at her for a moment. She continued. "Though I will never doubt your ability to make pure love. Be gental, and kind. Powerful, yet vunerable in the hands of your partener. Your mate. To make love, and not just sex." She pulled his face down to hers and place a delicate kiss on his shocked lips. In order to compose himself, he went back to work on her neck, but his beast had other things in mind.

It's as tough she can read our mind.
Hn. Sesshomaru was to distracted by his task to answer more than that.

We shall mate her. That got his attention.
No. Not now. I will never do that without her consent. His beast paused a moment.

Ask her.
What!?
She could be very much ready and willing, but you, -we- will never know unless you ask her! Sesshomaru shook his head.

"Sesshomaru?" Kagome asked him, confused as to why he was doing that.

"Sorry Kagome." He sighed a pulled back a moment. He watched her softly, as she was playing with one of his many, long strands of silver hair. He smiled at how her eyes were wide with awe of the strand. He couldn't help but say the following;

"You know... This hair, that you seem very fond of... If one day, you were to become a demon, you too would probably grow hair as such." Her eyes widened. "Perhaps not this colour, as that is a family trait, but still." He caught her eyes, hoping she would see what he was trying to say. After a moment, it was clear to him, that she did not. He held in a sigh.

There was a knock at the door. "Erm.. Eh, lord Sesshomaru... The Eastern Elder is here..." He heared Jaken stammer from the other side. A growl escaped him, and he looked back down, helplessly at Kagome. She smiled softly.

"Go."

"But Kagome, -I mean... - I'm sorry... This one doesn't have a choice. I can't let the Elders wait." His eyes were sad, as he really did not want to leave his beautiful miko. She reached up and caressed his cheek, he leaned into her touch.

"Go. I promise, I will always be here waiting for you." Her words made his heart swell with emotion. He nodded and stood, dressing quickly, and with one last, longing glace, he exited the room. He heard her sigh from the other side of the room.

"I'm so sorry Kagome..."

Coward.

...~Inuyasha~...

He had been watching the palace for days now, catching a glimps of the children everynow and then. More often than not he would see Kagome sitting in one place in the garden. He guessed she had chosen her Spot as he called it. She had one back at the village too.

-Flashback-

"Kagome, why do you come here all the time?" Inuyasha asked, loving the feeling of his sweet human girl raking her soft fingers through his hair. He heard her sigh.

"Because love... It's peaceful. It's beautiful... I love it here." They sat under a very large evergreen tree, watching the sunset, as the tree sat upon a large hill, with the perfect view.

"Do you mind that I am here with you..?" He asked hesitantly. He looked up and saw her smiling, looking down upon him.

"Inuyasha... You are what makes this spot complete."

-Flashback end-

Inuyasha scoffed at the memory. It had been so long ago, nearly three years now. Things were different now. He was different.

The only reason Inuyasha hadn't swooped in and taken Kagome away from her damned half-brothers palace, is because he knew she went here freely, and knew that as soon as he tried, she would simply "sit" his ass into the core of the earth, and the run back to Sesshomaru. He had been able to sence a growing relationship between the two and it made him sick. Kagome was his. Only his. Even if things were different now, and they didn't have the relationship they once did, she was still his forever. She'd promised, long ago, and he would forever hold it to her.

-Flashback-

"Hey Kags... Promise me something?" Inuyasha was holding Kagome tightly in his arms, sitting in a tree top looking at the glittering stars above.

"What is it Inuyasha?" He blushed for a moment.

"Promise me, that not matter what happens, you will stay by my side forever." She twisted her neck to look at him.

"Of course I will. Nothing could take me away from you. Nothing." They kissed softly, and resumed watching the beautiful sky.

-Flashback end-

She was his, and said she would be forever, yet here she was, frolicing about with his enemy brother. He knew he needed to get her back, but first, he needed to rid himself of these beads, garnishing his neck. He'd already tried the old hag, but to no avail, they were still there.

-Flashback-

"Get them off you old hag!" He had the poor priestess dangling from the floor, gasping for air.

"I- I can't!" She managed and cough out.

"Why the fuck not!" He slammed her back into a wall.
"Only... The.. The-miko. Who summoned them.. upon you..." She coughed. "Can remove them!" She was clawing at his hand, desperate for air.

"Son of a bitch!" He dropped her like dirty laundry onto the floor, and left the hut, cursing, and his blood boiling.

Kaede was crumpled on the floor, curled into a broken ball, coughing and gasping for air.

"Run... Kagome..." She was able to whisper before passing into an eternal slumber, and awaiting Miroku, or Sango, to find her.

-Flashback end-

A/N- Annnnd there it is folks. Chapter 36. PLEASE don't hate me for killing off dear Kaede. I felt it nessisary. The flashbacks were showing how loving and true Inuyasha used to be, before something changed him (That something is still undecided) and I felt the final, most recent even should show just how big he has changed. ALSO. Don't hate me for not de-flowering Kags xD She'll get there, don't worry ;)

So please, fill that sexy little box below, with reviews! Love you all, and will post when I can! ;D
