Thank you all for all of your awesome reviews! It makes me smile every time I see them.
Okay my little duckies! This chappy has some lemon and lime action so you are pre-warned! Read at your own risk! This is a long one.
~Kagome POV~
I never felt so relaxed and peaceful; usually I was plagued with nightmares and sad dreams of my past. I sighed and turned my head so that I could block out the sun's rays but when I felt teeth at my neck my eyes fly open. I was lying on my back with InuYasha on his side, one of his arms was on my stomach, and his body was close to mine which explained why I was so comfy and warm. He had his face in the crook of my neck, his fangs on the side of neck, not breaking skin but just resting on my skin. His scent was all over me making me close my eyes as I laid there and enjoyed it.
I know I should be offended that he stayed the night with me, but I noticed that his demonic aura had cocooned us, preventing my nightmares, letting me sleep peacefully for once in a long time. I felt so safe in his arms that I closed my eyes and decided to worry about this later, for now I buried myself closer to him and just allowed myself to be held by him.
It was too early anyways, the sun had just broke though the horizon, I looked over to see that Sango and Kikyo where still asleep and it gave me peace of mind that while they were in the room InuYasha would behave himself. The only item he had taken off was his red haori, which he used to cover me like a blanket. I knew his reasoning for doing this as well, his robe of the fire rat was his armor, and if someone would have tried to kill me or attack me I would have been protected. An emotion washed over me as I realized that even if he knew that I could protect myself, he still was finding ways to watch over me. Like his aura that prevented my bad dreams so that I could sleep well, the way he made sure we always had enough to eat, and now with his robe.
I turned my head so that I could look at him. He retracted his fangs and instead just placed his lips on my shoulder and kept them there. I reached up and stroked one of his cute ears then moved to caress his hair.
"Too early…" he said gruffly with his eyes still closed "Go back to sleep" he breathed before he pulled me closer to him and tucked me under his head so that my face was not at chest level. I involuntary gave out a yawn, I would scold him later I told myself, but now I would take what he was offering…warmth and love. I closed my eyes as I felt weariness creep up on me again, before I feel asleep I leaned up and kissed his throat softy. There was something so natural about sleeping in his arms, kissing him, and having his demonic aura caresses me as I merged my powers with his so that it blended and protected us. I didn't want to dwell too much on it, since I already knew that according to him, I was his lifemate, so this would seem normal to me. As I tried to fall asleep the guilt over what I was doing to Alex twisted in my gut until I heard InuYasha growl softy making his body vibrate, sending me to sleep almost immediately.
~InuYasha POV~
The moment I felt her fall bank asleep I allowed myself to lean down and place a chastise kiss on her full pink lips. My demon was calm and at peace with Kagome tucked besides me like she was supposed to be. When she kissed my neck all I could think of was how I was a few steps closer to winning her heart completely.
I nuzzled her hair gently and kissed the top of her head before I relaxed my body against hers. Kagome had tossed and turned last night for a while until I took off my haori top and then reached into my demon and surrounded her with my aura, only then had she finally calmed down enough and feel asleep peacefully. So I didn't get enough sleep and I would need my strength for when I had to deal with the dickhead who no doubt would hear about me sleeping Kagome's bed. I smirked a bit when I imaged what his face would look like when he heard that I slept by her side.

I felt her stirring in my arms as she tried to wake up. I sighed deeply as I leaned down and licked her neck making her squirm a bit. I opened my eyes and lifted my head so see her sleep fogy eyes regarding me with a frown as she blinked. She looked so innocent and delectable that before I could stop myself I leaned down and gave her a slow lingering kiss that sent shivers all the way down to my spine. Her scent was intoxicating, her skin was soft and her legs where intertwined with mine, I wanted this woman more that I wanted anything; she did some witchy things to my blood.
She made a soft moaning sound in the back of her throat that made my blood boil, so I nibbled on her lips asking for entrance into her mouth. She granted it in a kiss that made me slant my mouth over hers hungrily as I tasted her and stroked my tongue against hers. She was addictive, her taste made me want more, she was my mate, she was fashioned in such a way that I would never get bored of tasting her mouth, never tire of nibbling her full lips and breathing in her scent. I trailed licks and kisses down her throat making her gasp as her hands caressed and touched my arms, shoulders and finally my hair, eager to pull me closer to her. I moved back to her mouth and kissed her deeply with a moan, I was losing my control, I felt it slipping as she moved from kissing my lips to kissing my throat making me hiss in pleasure.
It wasn't until I heard someone clearing their throat that I froze. Kagome must not have heard because she moved to kiss my lips again making me almost whine. I pulled away from her and wanted to rip the head off of the person who interrupted us as I saw the passion glazed eyes of my mate as she looked at my lips hungrily.
"Hate to be the party pooper" said Sango with a snicker "But we just wanted to let you two know that everyone is already up and getting ready to leave. If you want me to let them know that we're going to be leaving a bit later just let me know…otherwise I don't think you guys want Alex to be barging in here while you two are….uh…occupied"
"I for one will gladly tell them that you are sleeping in and give you two a few more minutes" says Kikyo as they both headed out of the room but not before Kikyo says to me "I will make sure he doesn't come in"
I rolled my eyes then looked down at Kagome's face. She was shocked then she looked at me with a very guilty expression.
"I would say sorry..but I'm not" I say to her before I kiss her again, coaxing her to return it "Stop fighting it" I whisper in between kisses against her mouth "just let go and feel koibito" before I kiss her deeply once more, my mouth demanding as I urged my mate to respond to me.
~Kagome POV~
My head was spinning and my body felt like it was engulfed in fire. He's scent was making me ache in places I have never ached before, I wanted…..I didn't know wanted..but I knew it was something only he could give me. In my four years being apart from him I have never felt desire and passion this strong before. My few kisses with Alex never managed to ignite a need so strong that I kissed him like he was the very air I needed to survive. A current of desire sizzled between both of us zapping us to our very core, I knew he felt it too because he moan deep in my mouth sending a new wave of fire to lap at my skin making it tinged with awareness.
I knew I should stop him, stop myself from betraying Alex even more that I already have but another part of me was unable to do so. This was my InuYasha I had in my arms kissing me like a man that was out in the desert too long and finally found water; he kissed me like his very life depended on it. His scent was so beloved and familiar when I had dreamed of just holding him like this long ago.
He moved one of his hands so that he grabbed my calf and hitched around his waist making me lightheaded and hazy, I gasped as the sensation of having him so intimately cradled between my legs as he lavished my throat and skin with licks, nips and hot kisses. When did he move so that he was on top of me? His weight felt so sinful and delicious that I gave a little whimper as he moved to kiss my mouth once more; his tongue was hot and hard as he mercilessly tasted me. His stretched his frame so that I was completely pinned under him; he moved his hips so that I could feel his lust for me against my core making me whine into his mouth a bit. I clutched at his shoulders instead of pushing him back like I was meaning to instead I clung to him as I arched my back giving him access to my throat instead. God I ached, my body humming for him in a way that I didn't think was possible, I had felt dead for the past four years but now I was alive from just his touch and smell.
"Inu….Yasha" I moaned out his name as I tried to regain my senses to stop what we were doing, if we continued down this path no doubt that in a few minutes he was going to have me naked and writhing beneath him as he took me. The image that flashed through my mind didn't help eliminate the yearning that was coursing through my blood now. He was everywhere now, coaxing me to yield to him as he took off his creamy white kimono to give a good view of his mesmerizing tan skinned and toned chest. My hand went to his skin on their own accord caressing and touching his hot flesh, marveling on how bigger he's gotten in the past four years. He was simply too beautiful with his golden eyes filled with hunger, his slivery mane caressing my skin as it fell from his wide strong shoulders and his scent…gods it was everywhere turning me on to the point that just a few more touches and I was going to be at his mercy. I clung on to him as I felt him pulling off my knit pants I vaguely felt or noticed when he finally had them off of me.
"Kagome" he breathed into my throat then in one movement took my blue top as well until I was lying under him with only my bra since he managed to take my underwear along with my pants. I shivered from anticipation as he caressed and stroked my skin until I was panting and moaning his name.
I was going to stop him….any time now…I waited for my brain to connect with my body but I felt like they have been disconnected from each other. He had to know I was still a virgin before this went too far.
"InuYasha…we have to stop" I moaned pushing gently at his chest "I'm not ready for this yet" I say before he kissed me again then sighed and whined at the same time, but I couldn't break my contact with him yet. My body wouldn't respond as I continued to kiss him deeply, loving the taste and feel of his tongue, his fangs would occasionally scrap my lips making me tremble. His arms where strong as he held me close to his body, my hands were on his strong muscled back holding him to me not wanting to let go. My mind may not be ready for this and yet I couldn't stop caressing his skin, my hands moving up and down his broad back all the way to his hair as I racked my nails thought his scalp making him pin me under him as he moaned in my mouth.
"Oh..gods we need to stop" I whimpered as I felt his fangs at my throat "InuYasha…I want you so badly but we cant..not here…not right now" I say hoping he could understand that I did want him…more that I realized I did but the timing was not right. I had to analyze what I was feeling for him and what I feel for Alex.
"I'm sorry koi…I didn't meant for things to get so out of hand" he says, his breath is ragged and his breathing uneven as he tries to regain his control. I watched as his eyes flashed from red to gold a few times as he attempts to leash his demon for my sake. I feel so horrible, a part of me was shrieking that this man was my other half and I couldn't just leave him like this but there was also another part of me that told me that until I broke things off with Alex I wouldn't be allowed to be with InuYasha. It was the right thing to do.
"I'm sorry…" I start but I get cut off by a soft kiss from InuYasha "Don't. It's not your fault and I know part of the reason why you are saying no….it's just taking my demon time to calm down"
My body was still calling out to him, I know he could smell how aroused I was by him and it was making things worse for him. He didn't need to say it, I could tell in the way he was trying to not look at me or inhale through his nose. I felt empty without him, I wanted his body weight on me, I wanted to take him into my body and love him but I couldn't do that. I move away so that I could put my pants back on and elevate some of the temptation so that he wouldn't have to suffer so much. I pull my shirt back on and then pick up his white kimono top and cling on to it as he continued to breathe in and out as he tried to leash is demon. His shirt smelled like him and I couldn't help but pull it up to my face and inhale deeply, I have always loved his scent, woodsy and clean.
"Are you going to be okay?" I asked as he leans back on his knees and sighs deeply is head back so that I could see the muscles on his neck taut and strained.
"Yeah….I didn't think things would get so intense between us. Honestly the only reason I stayed was because you started whimpering and thrashing in your sleep from nightmares that I just couldn't leave you like that. I had to keep you surrounded by my demonic aura in order for you to sleep peacefully…it wasn't too tiring but I never kept it up for so long…eventually I fell asleep as well. When I woke up with you still in my arms…I don't know..I just couldn't help myself from kissing you"
I know how he felt, that first contact with his lips had been like a white hot lightning bolt jolted me, at once I wanted more, craved to feel him. The mating heat between us was so strong that we almost made love where everyone could hear us. I shudder to think of what would have happened if we had went all the way and gave in to our bodies demands, everyone would have heard me cry out InuYasha's name….I thought of Alex and how devastated he would feel to hear that.
My body was still burning for InuYasha; even looking at him sent currents of heat and throbbing throughout. Finally I said "I think I need to leave" as I forced my body to leave his proximity. I saw him close his eyes "yeah…I think that would be a good idea, before I grab you and pin you to this bed" at his admission my breath left my lungs in a whoosh making me lightheaded as I unconsciously took a step forward.
"Don't!" he growled before he closed his eyes and hissed as he spat between his teeth "If you take one more step forward I'm only going to see it as an open invitation…if you don't leave right now I swear Kagome I'm going to grab you and fuck you senseless"
Heat pooled between my thighs making my body sizzle at his crude words and lustful eyes as he narrowed them at me. I am sure he saw the yearning and desire in my own eyes as I tried to make my body move away from him but couldn't.
"Kagome…for godsakes…leave!" he said harshly as his body shook from the effort it caused him to stay where he was. I took one step back, putting all of my willpower into that act alone before I whispered "I can't..."
He groaned out loud before he rushed towards me and pinned me to the wall, drizzled by a rush of desire, my head plopped limply back against the wall as his mouth fastened to mine once more. I slip my hands up the rippling muscles of his arms, over his shoulders then locked them firmly behind his neck as I kissed him back. He moaned deep in his chest as he pick me up and wrapped my legs round him as he grinded his hips in to me, I arched my back needing to be closer, needing more of his touch. I reached up and stroked his ears, he broke the kiss to close lean into my touch and hiss in pleasure.
~InuYasha POV~
My mind was clouded by the need to claim her.
I couldn't hold back my demon anymore, I gave her many opportunities to run, to turn and walk away but she didn't, she said she couldn't. Damnit it was too soon, I wanted to wait a bit more but with the scent of her arousal so heavy in the air between us all thoughts and good intentions scattered out of my mind.
It took all of my will power to tell her to run; I was almost relived when she didn't. She wanted me as much as I wanted her, and come hell or high water it seemed like there wasn't anything that was going to stop me from ravishing her sweet body.
It was too much..I needed her out of her clothes so that I could feel her glorious body on mine. As I pulled off her shirt once more I had to at least give her another opportunity to change her mind.
"Tell me to stop" I say into her mouth then kissed my way down her throat "Don't stop" she groaned clutching on to me "God Kagome…please tell me you don't want this" I say as I dig my claws into her hair then look into her blue eyes, she looked at me before saying "I want you".
All reasoning when out the window as I kissed her deeply, I was tired of waiting anyways, and I wanted my mate like this…demanding and frantic for my touch.
Then I heard it.
The sounds of voices coming towards the room, one of them was Alex who was cursing loudly.
"Don't give me that bullshit…she's in her room with demon isn't she?!" he roared from down that hallway.
"Shit" I mutter then I look at the startled expression of my mate as she heard him as well. I kiss her softy once more then put her down and retrieve her shirt from the floor and pull it over her head. I then go and pick up my white kimono top and pull it one tying it and tucked it under my pants. The door flew open was I reached for my fire rat hoari that was still on the bed. Alex looked at me and snarled before he looked to his right to where Kagome was still standing there a bit shocked as she tried to gather herself.
"What the fuck is this?" he says the walked over to Kagome and grabs her arm so that she could look at him. He narrowed his eyes on her as I'm sure he took in her disheveled hair, her pink cheeks and swollen lips. He cursed the turned to glare at me "You bastard, everything was going good between us until you showed your damn face. Well I don't give a shit what just happened right now because it won't happen again, she's mine" with that he pulled her out of the room with him making me snarl as I moved to go after him.
Who the fuck was he to grab my mate like he owned her?
"We're sorry InuYasha" said Sango as I pulled on my fire rat top then took Tetsusaiga and tied it around my waist again "We tried to keep him away but he started to notice that neither one of you ever made it to breakfast"
"We told him that Kagome was still sleeping since she couldn't sleep well last night but then he started asking why you weren't eating" said Kikyo "After a few more minutes he started cursing and then got up and said he was going to check on Kagome"
"It's okay" I say as I walked out sniffing out my mate "I knew he would eventually come and see what was taking her so long, but that asshole is going to pay for just grabbing her like that" I say darkly as I run to where Alex dragged Kagome.
I could hear them now.
"Damnit what the hell happened? Why the hell was he in your room?" he yelled at her.
"Alex….I don't know what to say to you other than I'm sorry. I told you long time ago that it would be better if you didn't get involved with me, that my heart always belonged to him. I never lied to you and I told you I wouldn't know what would happen when I saw him again. Last night I was having my nightmares, he stayed with me and kept his demonic aura open in order to drive them away, he got tired and fell asleep" I felt my heart thumb in my chest when I heard her say that her heart belonged to me, she truly was my lifemate.
"Kagome….I know you did more than just sleep. I can see his bite marks on your neck, your hair is a mess, your lips are swollen and pink as if you have been kissing him all night and you reek of him. You have never lied to me so don't start doing it now….how far did you go with him?"
I heard her sigh "I'm sorry Alex…I truly am and yes. I did kiss him, things did get a bit out of hand this morning but I didn't have sex with him if that is what you want to know"
"Why Kagome? What does he give you that I can't? I can give you a future in our time; you wouldn't have to choose between your time and this one. He's not even human! How does that not bother you? Part of him is ruled by an animal Kagome…its bestiality damnit!"
I hear a slap, I leap out of the tree I was in to see Alex's face red as Kagome's hand balled into a fist, her eyes shiny with tears as she tried to stop her body from shaking.
"How dare you! I can't even believe you….." she was so angry that her hands where glowing pink.
I walk up to her and place a hand on the small of her back "He's not an animal!" she screeches at him "I never would have thought of you as being so narrow minded Alex"
"I'm not, but what the hell do you want me to do when the woman I love is choosing someone who is part dog over a human man? You wanted to forget him…remember? Why the change of heart? Just because you found out that he never loved the other woman Kikyo? After everything he put you though you just forgave him and welcomed him back into your life? Where do I stand in your life now? Do I get pushed aside now?"
I wanted to take Kagome and run from this bastard, I knew what he was doing….he was using guilt in order to make Kagome stay with him. If he wanted to play with fire…then so could I.
"Alex….you know Kagome better than to assume then she would try and hurt anyone of us intentionally…she's too pure of a person to play with people's emotions. I understand your jealous…hell I acted the same way when I first saw you two together…but don't you think that in the end it's Kagome's decision? Yes…I am a demon and yes I am part dog, but I happen to also have human emotions and a human heart, so don't assume you know me or how I feel about her"
I look down at her and smile softy at her "What me to give you two sometime alone?" I say but I rather she purify me than leave her with this prick. She shakes her head "No…I need some time alone..I'm going to find Sango and Kikyo…I need some girl time"
With that she stomps off leaving Alex and me alone, I turn and smirk at him.
"You really are making it too easy for me" I say enjoying the look of shock on his face.
"I knew it…your just pretending to be the good guy, the best friend to win her over" he says as he clenches is fists in rage, it makes me laugh.
"No shit, just figuring that out?" I say mockingly "Did you really think I was just going to start liking you out of blue? You come here on my turf and think you have claim on my mate? I don't think so, Kagome is mine and I don't share motherfucker. Too bad for you that we have a bond that not even you can sever, that and the fact that she loves me, she always have and always will. Yeah I am part demon, and yes I am part dog…but you know what…she loves that about me. What can I give her that you can't? Easy, I can give her passion to match the wildness that is burning inside of her, she's strong and needs a strong man to match her..and that man is not you asswipe"
I bark out a laugh before I walk away leaving him to stare daggers at the back of my head.

Naraku smirked as he heard what just transpired between InuYasha and the golden haired man named Alex. It was almost too perfect; he wanted to crush InuYasha for taking Kikyo's heart all those years ago. He had thought that once Kagome came back he would kill her off but now he had a better idea for how to destroy InuYasha. He reached into his baboon pelt and took out a little glass vial, he had originally thought to give it to Kikyo but now…he had other ideas in store.

~Alex POV~
Damn that demon dog to hell!
I was beyond furious; I wanted nothing more than go up to that demon's smug ass and put a bullet between his eyes. I paced as I remembered how I found them, Kagome was dazed as her lovely blue eyes where glazed with passion and her hair was ruffled in different places and her lips….
I closed my eyes as I gritted my teeth as betrayal washed though me bitter and malicious. Those sweet lips of hers where swollen, pink and slightly glistening, all tall tale signs that she was being thoroughly kissed by that animal, even worse…she had kissed him back. It was clear that she still cared for him and it pissed me off. I knew I should have argued more with her when she told me she was going to come back here, the only reason I came with her was so precisely this wouldn't happen..now?
I raked a hand though my hair, I wanted to take her home where I could put some distance between her and that demon…but how?
"What a shame" I turned around to find a man with long black wavy hair and a blue hakama sitting on a bench near the fish pond.
"Who are you?" I asked, learning not to trust anyone in this era.
"I'm the son of the elder inn keeper, I didn't mean to intrude but I was passing nearby when I witness the whole thing and I'm sorry. The young lady must mean a great deal to you and yet you are losing her to a hanyou, a half breed. Did you maybe think he may have placed an enchantment on her?"
I frowned, no the thought never occurred to me, though I didn't see way not…then again. InuYasha was many things but I somehow didn't think he would stoop so low as to use a trick to get Kagome.
"May I offer some advice?" the man said to me reaching in to his robes and pulled out a vial with clear liquid "You seem like you truly love that woman, and I do agree with you…humans should stay with humans. So what if she could be cleansed of her attachment to that demon? If she is under a spell then this would fix that right away"
"How do I know this is not some trick? And why would you be willing to help me? You don't know me" I looked at the man trying to size him up; he looked like he genuinely wanted to help.
"I offer my help because I heard what that mutt said to you, he uses trickery to win her heart from you" he holds out the glass vial for me to take. I hesitate for a moment but take it from it and uncork it to smell it, it was odorless.
"That is medicine meant to work against enchantments placed by demons, if she isn't under a spell then it won't harm her, but if she is under a spell then it will make her weak and disoriented for a while. I suggest you slip it into her water when that demon is not looking, but once you do, you need to take her away from him. If you let her stay with in his demonic aura it will not work"
I look at the medicine then look at him "Thank you…what is your name?"
"Onigumo"
