Chapter 6

Rin smiled as she placed the steaming rice on the table, looking to all the food she had made. She had made made rice with nikujaga, along with some sushi, and two katsudon donburi. She was proud of herself, the feast enough to last them a few days. Lord Sesshomaru brought food once a week and she had already used up most of it to make this feast. He truly was her Lord Sesshomaru.

Rin looked to the window, seeing the sun had started to go down. She wiped her hands on her kimono and walked outside, feeling the cool breeze against her heated skin. It had gotten really hot inside due to all the cooking, but the cool breeze was relaxing. She looked up to the sky, her eyes going wide when she saw the first star of the night. She put her hands to her chest, closing her eyes.

"Star light star bright, first star I see tonight. Wish I may wish I might, have the wish that I wish tonight. I wish…" Rin took a deep breath, thinking hard of what she wanted the most. She knew Inuyasha would love her food because she was taught by Kaede and Sango, she knew that Lord Sesshomaru would always watch after her. She took in a deep breath, opening her eyes and looking to that single star in the sky.

"I wish me, Lord Sesshomaru, and Inuyasha could be a family."

Rin looked to the forest when the bushes rustled, Lord Sesshomaru stepping out. She felt a deep fear run through her when she saw Inuyasha in his arms, seeming lifeless.

Had her wish killed him?

She ran towards them, Lord Sesshomaru shaking his head. Rin stopped half way there, her heart crying out to Inuyasha.

"What is wrong with him?" Rin asked, her eyes filling with tears. Lord Sesshomaru stopped in front of her, Rin's heart calming when she saw that he was just asleep.

"I need you to find a specific herb, alright Rin?" Lord Sesshomaru asked, Rin nodding her head determinedly. Anything to help Inuyasha and Lord Sesshomaru.

"Go into the forest and find lavender. I want you to create an oil from it, can you do that Rin?" Rin nodded her head, her previous hunger gone.

Inuyasha needed her help so she would not let Lord Sesshomaru down! Rin ran into the forest, knowing where the lavender herbs would be growing best at.

Sesshomaru watched her leave, looking down to Inuyasha. The lavender will calm him and the anxiety he will when he woke up. Sesshomaru wouldn't allow another episode like that to happen. He had been aggravated earlier from the demanding Nobles, the weakening of his barrier the only reason why the injured demon entered.

Sesshomaru entered the cottage, stopping when he saw the food Rin had made. He smiled, heading towards Inuyasha's room. He laid him down on his futon, drawing the blanket over his body. He sat against the wall, deciding he would watch over him till Rin got back.

She treated him well, but if he lost control before she could make the oil, than he would have to kill him. He would not risk her safety over his demon.

Rin had stopped running and was walking across a clearing, a flower bed under her feet. She was careful, looking for lavender. It grew around the edges of the flower bed, mimicking the other flowers so it would not be caught. She pursed her lips as she looked harder, looking to a bush that seemed to stand out. Lavender grew on but it was well hidden, Rin smiling in relief as she drew near. She picked the purple herb, bringing it to her nose. The smell relaxed her, Rin touching one of it's small petals. She gathered enough to make the oil, putting some extra in her kimono.

She turned to go back, seeing a rabbit sitting there. Rin smiled down to it, kneeling to pet it. It ran away though, Rin sighing in sadness.

"Oh well, at least I got to see you," she said, breaking into a run as she went back to the cottage. For some reason, she felt like the rabbit had been trying to tell her something. It hadn't looked to her but behind her, Rin feeling a slow chill run up her back. She knew nothing could get into the barrier, like Lord Sesshomaru said, but you never ignore nature. It had not gone silent in the forest so she knew she was alright for now.

She broke the clearing the cottage was in, running inside. She didn't see Lord Sesshomaru and Inuyasha but got down quickly to make the oil. She hummed softly as she got what she needed, thinking of the sixteen steps Kaede had told her. She took a deep breath and began.

Inuyasha woke up slowly. His body felt hot and sticky. Inuyasha could feel the bloody discharge between his thighs, his body having released the pheromone more while he had slept. He had started his fertile stage. His discharge was less bloody and more of a pinkish tan color, Inuyasha whimpering when he felt a hand touch his forehead.

"Inuyasha, sleep." Inuyasha opened his eyes instead, seeing Sesshomaru. He didn't look the same for some reason. A red aura surrounded him, Inuyasha feeling weak as the aura touched him. His power was immense, Inuyasha sitting up. His mind felt foggy, Inuyasha getting to all fours. Sesshomaru leaned back when he crawled closer, the smell of his musk and power heavy.

"Inuyasha, you need to sleep," Sesshomaru told him, Inuyasha pouting as he sat down. He leaned forward, licking his cheek. Sesshomaru did nothing at first, Inuyasha trailing his tongue down to his neck. He growled softly when his hand came up to his shoulder. Inuyasha was confused when he pushed him back, Inuyasha tilting his head to the side when he sat him down.

"Go to sleep," Sesshomaru told him again, but Inuyasha could see his aura. It was surrounding him, his inner demon calling to him. Inuyasha had been marked by him, and all he wanted was to give his body to him. But at that thought, he seemed to snap back to reality. His aura slowly vanished, Inuyasha blinking his eyes.

He touched a hand to his neck, feeling the healed puncture wounds. His eyes narrowed, a low growl escaping his throat. Sesshomaru could sense his anger, but before Inuyasha could attack him, Rin opened the door. Inuyasha looked to her, Rin holding a small bowl in her hands.

"Lord Sesshomaru, I made the oil," Rin told him, Sesshomaru looking back to Inuyasha. He had seemed to calm in her presence.

"Thank you Rin. Leave it on the floor. Go ahead and eat, Inuyasha will be out to eat with you soon," Sesshomaru told her, Rin nodding with a smile as she placed down the oil, closing the door. The spell she had cast lifted, Inuyasha looking back to Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru raised a hand.

"Before you act irrationally, let me speak." Inuyasha didn't want to let him speak. He wanted to tear off his head and stab his heart.

"First you bring me here against my will, then you mark me?!" Inuyasha growled, Sesshomaru standing, getting the lavender oil.

"You had lost control Inuyasha. This is your first heat and your demon doesn't know how to act," Sesshomaru told him, Inuyasha standing.

"What do you know about being in heat asshole?" Inuyasha questioned, Sesshomaru walking back to him. Inuyasha took a step away.

He didn't want him near him.

"I took you here against your will because if I didn't you would have killed those around you." Inuyasha growled, his hand clenching into a fist as he had an urge to punch him.

"You don't know that!" Sesshomaru walked forward, Inuyasha walking backwards so he wouldn't get closer. His back pressed against the wall.

"I may have not mated with bitches, Inuyasha, but I see what they can do. I've seen bitches in heat eat not only other demons, but humans as well. They need the power to grow stronger, they need the power so when they mate the pups will not only have their own to draw on." Inuyasha panted through his nose like an angry bull, Sesshomaru taking a step back.

"You had succumbed to that similar urge and killed a demon that had entered my barrier when I was at my weakest point. If I had not stopped you, you would have hurt Rin also. Sadly, the only way to stop a bitch is marking her. You will draw on my energy, so if I leave you will continue your rampage. Whether you like it or not you're stuck here until your heat ends or I mate you." Inuyasha growled, yelling his anger.

"I didn't want to come here in the first place!

The opening of the shoji stopped them both.

"Inuyasha?" Rin stood there, tears in her eyes. She looked from Sesshomaru to Inuyasha, her bottom lip trembling.

"You didn't want to be here?" Inuyasha felt bile rise in his throat, a sudden feeling of guilt running through his chest. He pushed past Sesshomaru, going to Rin's side. She wiped her eyes, laughing softly. It was the laugh of a broken hearted person.

"I'm sorry for making you stay. I had thought we could get along. But you didn't want to be here," Rin said shakily, Inuyasha wiping away her tears.

"I didn't want to be here with Sesshomaru, not you," he told her, Rin only crying harder.

"Kaede told me about demons. She told me about mating. I know he is your brother but isn't it normal for you to do something like that?" Rin asked, Inuyasha wincing slightly. He was going to kill Kaede when he got back.

"Yes bu-"

"Then why can't we be a family?! I don't care about you getting pregnant! How come I can't be your daughter?" Rin sobbed, Inuyasha pulling her into an embrace. He felt at a loss, pulling away gently as he wiped away her tears.

"You are my daughter Rin," Inuyasha told her, Rin slapping his hands away.

"Then why don't you like Lord Sesshomaru!" Rin sobbed, Inuyasha sighing. He looked to him, Sesshomaru remaining stoic.

"Lord Sesshomaru has treated Rin with respect. He was Rin's daddy when she had no one! He gave Inuyasha food and took care of him so you wouldn't do something you regret. Why can't Inuyasha love Lord Sesshomaru for that? Why can't he love Rin?" she was crying buckets now, holding onto Inuyasha tightly. Inuyasha felt like a total shit now. He couldn't stand seeing her cry, holding tighter onto her.

"Inuyasha grew up a bad life. Even though Lord Sesshomaru helps him now, he didn't like him before. Inuyasha learned to hate him," Inuyasha told her, talking in a way that was childish and motherly. He felt like he had to talk like her for her to understand. Rin wiped her face, pulling away with a hiccup.

"Does Inuyasha still like Kagome?" Rin asked shakily, Inuyasha nodding his head. Rin sniffled.

"Kagome had talked to me in my dreams. She said she thought it was taboo for you to like your brother. But as she saw how he treated you, she had learned to see she shouldn't interrupt. She wants you to move on Inuyasha," Rin sniffled, Inuyasha frowning.

"She wants you to be happy, but she knew her memory will only upset you. Inuyasha your son is so beautiful. He loves for me to blow against his belly because it makes funny noises," Rin said with a shaky smile, Inuyasha feeling tears burn his eyes.

"He can talk and calls me big sis. He misses his daddy but he knows you love him," Rin said shakily, Inuyasha standing up slowly.

"Rin, but what if I don't want to love Sesshomaru?" Inuyasha asked, Rin pushing away from him. She wiped away her tears, walking over to Sesshomaru. She stood in front of him, her bottom lip shaking.

"Then you don't love Rin!" Inuyasha felt at a loss. He didn't want to get close to Sesshomaru. He didn't want to mate with him. But for Rin to leave his side made his heart break to pieces. He felt like he was losing his son all over again. Inuyasha's tears fell down his cheeks. Rin cried even harder, running back to him. Inuyasha hugged her, Rin sobbing into his kimono.

"Please love Rin! I don't care if you and Sesshomaru don't mate! You don't have too! Just please love Rin!" Rin sobbed, Inuyasha taking in a sharp breath as he tried to control himself. He picked her up, Rin crying on his shoulder as she held him tighter. He looked to Sesshomaru, his neck throbbing slightly. His eyes were stoic but he could see past his barrier. Inuyasha will try for Rin.

He closed his eyes, hugging her tighter. Eventually Rin fell asleep, Inuyasha putting her to bed. He walked outside, Sesshomaru following.

"Inuyasha, take this." Inuyasha looked to the bowl of lavender oil, taking it slowly.

"When Rin brushes your hair, have her use that after brushing it. It will calm you so you will not have another episode when I leave," Sesshomaru told him, Inuyasha nodding. he felt at a loss, so he decided he might as well get something off his chest.

"You know, I fucking hate you," Inuyasha said a lot calmer than he wanted to say it, walking towards the forest, Sesshomaru following. They walked in silence, Inuyasha sighing as they got to the river, Sesshomaru stopping a few feet away from him. Inuyasha was silent for a moment, taking in a deep breath. He faced him, placing down the lavender bowl.

"You are an undeserving ass. You take care of Rin after completely disregarding me for being the same thing she is. You think you are the fucking Lord of the Universe, but if dad was here you would be nothing but a pile of ashes for half the shit you have done. You claim to try and test my power while trying to fucking kill me on a fucking daily basis, but once I got into heat, did you expect me to drop all the shit you put me through and spread my legs for you like a good bitch?!" Inuyasha panted through his nose, drawing his sword.

"You fucking come to my cave and molest me, force me to come with you all for the sake of your stupid bloodline! Did you ever once consider what I felt asshole!" Inuyasha charged forward, swinging his sword down like an axe. Sesshomaru's sword blocked his blow, Inuyasha doing it again before kicking out. Sesshomaru grabbed his ankle, throwing him against a tree.

Inuyasha got up with a growl, grabbing his sword and running towards him.

"You try to play nice and use Rin to keep me here! Do you think I give a shit if you change a new leaf!" Inuyasha slashed his sword sideways, Sesshomaru blocking his blow before his other hand started to sizzle with acid. Inuyasha jumped back, his whip barely scraping his cheek.

"You take away my freedom for the sake of an heir! I would sooner die than birth your stupid heir!" Inuyasha yelled, raising his sword over his head. Wind howled around it, Inuyasha growling his command.

"Wind scar!" Sesshomaru matched it with his own power, the two energies erupting. Inuyasha jumped over it, his sword slicing where Sesshomaru had been. He heard him behind him, Inuyasha bringing his sword up to block his attack. He kicked him away, growling as he raised his sword again.

"You don't deserve the throne or our father's name! You don't deserve Rin or me! You deserve death!" Inuyasha raised his sword again, tears in his eyes.

"Backla-" His head snapped to the side painfully when Sesshomaru slapped him, Inuyasha's sword forced from his grip and thrown away from him. Inuyasha scratched his chest, his claws glowing with his blood.

"Iron reaver soul stealer!" Inuyasha slashed Sesshomaru's chest, his blood staining his kimono. They both stopped.

Inuyasha panted, looking to the blood on his clothing. He had hurt him. He had hurt him with his bare hands. Sesshomaru seemed surprised also, touching a finger to one of his slowly healing wounds. His finger's came back with blood.

Inuyasha took a step back, his hand falling to his side. His cheek burned but he didn't care.

"Finish me off." Inuyasha looked up to Sesshomaru's face, his eyes seeming tired. Inuyasha's first instinct was to grab his sword, but his body wouldn't move. He wanted to kill him, he wanted to kill him badly. But he couldn't move.

"Finish me off!" Sesshomaru pulled him forward, putting his sword in his hand. The blade went back to it's larger form, Inuyasha pressing it that much closer to his throat. He wanted too, but he couldn't. Inuyasha shook his head, trying to pull his hand away. Sesshomaru held it there.

"You want to kill me? Do it now!"

"No!" Inuyasha pulled his hand away, dropping his sword. He took a few steps back, his hands shaking at his sides.

"No." Sesshomaru advanced towards him, slamming him down into the ground. Inuyasha grunted in pain, Sesshomaru undoing his sash.

"Would you prefer to let me do this?" Sesshomaru growled, Inuyasha struggling weakly as he pulled his hakama down his thighs. He growled softly when he tore off his fundoshi, Sesshomaru spreading his legs.

"Is this what you want?" he growled, undoing his own hakama. Inuyasha put a hand to his chest, shaking his head with a whimper.

"No," he growled, Sesshomaru stopping there. He brung Inuyasha close, pressing his groin against his. Inuyasha took in a sharp breath, Sesshomaru thrusting his hips against his. He growled when Inuyasha moaned, pulling away.

"What the fuck do you want then huh? Want me to feel sorry for you because life has treated you poorly?" Sesshomaru growled, Inuyasha whimpering when he thrust a finger into him. He shook his head, pushing him away.

Inuyasha sat up slowly, his thighs shaking. He put his head in his hands, unsure of the feelings he felt. He felt anger, he felt hatred, he felt humiliation, he felt sadness, and he felt love. He sobbed into his hands, Sesshomaru watching stoically. His wounds had healed but his kimono was ruined, Sesshomaru sighing as he kneeled in front of him.

"Inuyasha." Inuyasha looked to him, tears running down his bloodied cheeks. He had accidentally smeared the blood on himself, Sesshomaru wiping some away from his lips. He leaned forward, Inuyasha leaning away slightly. He couldn't find the words to speak though, Inuyasha closing his eyes tight when he his lips touched his.

Sesshomaru felt weak from his taste, moving his lips against his. But soon he wanted a deeper taste, parting Inuyasha's lips with his tongue. Inuyasha tried to pull away but Sesshomaru gripped the back of his neck, keeping him in place. Inuyasha gasped into the kiss when Sesshomaru's tongue touched his, his cheeks heating up in arousal.

Inuyasha tried to shake it away though, moving his tongue after Sesshomaru tried to get him to play. He used to do that to Kagome, but Sesshomaru's taste was different. He didn't submit he dominated, Inuyasha's breath stolen away when his hand slipped down to his groin.

Inuyasha pulled away, moaning softly. He bit his lip, Sesshomaru licking his mouth before gently prying his mouth open again. Inuyasha pulled away completely when his hand touched his entrance, panting as he got to his feet, pulling up his clothing. Sesshomaru moved forward, Inuyasha raising his hand. Sesshomaru was panting, his eyes dark with lust. But he forced himself to calm down, Inuyasha turning away. He didn't say anything, just jumped into the air, leaving his sight. Sesshomaru wanted to punch something, doing back his hakama.

His inner demon was about to burst, but Sesshomaru knew he had to take his time.

Inuyasha only had a week of fertility. He couldn't mess up now.

Author's note: Was it bad that Inuyasha enjoyed that or good? Also I am writing too fast but this is just my pace me guess. This story had been in my head for a long time.
