Okay Guys, not that much more to go. LEMON HERE (the one you guys have been waiting on)

Please read and review.

Inuyasha observed the village from his spot on a high branch in the tree. Two weeks she had been gone and had not heard a word from her or about her. As adamant as he had been to get her back, that desire had waned, and he couldn't quite figure out why. He supposed it was the initial shock of the situation. Kagome had been with him for so long, stuck with him through the toughest of times, and known his troubles with his half brother; to see her willingly leave with him, it threw him for a curve.

Kagome leaving him was very sobering. He found that he wanted to have a mate or at least a potential mate of his own. Kikyo had been an introduction into finding acceptance- an idea that it could happen. Kagome had been his foundation and the plans. Through her, he had learned what to look for, how to get there. I t didn't mean he did it- he was always a slow learner, and for that, he lost Kagome. But that was long ago. His chance was gone, it wasn't coming back, but he still wanted to keep her close. Then, he'd backtracked- looking for less than he wanted for instant pleasure. That's why he sought to sheath himself inside the eager and willing village girls. He didn't have to work hard to find pussy. He beckoned and did the gruff but cute hanyou act, they came.

Inuyasha had not had sex since he had been back. Like he had done, the girls and women he was with had all done it for the fun, the instant gratification he could provide- especially cause he was a half demon, a taste of the unknown. He found that when he turned his usual fuck partners down, abstaining since coming back from his brothers keep, they just went off and got laid by someone else. He wasn't important to them, useful only as a cock. He laughed at the irony of it all. He used them. They used him. He wanted to feel important to someone. He wanted what his brother had found, a woman who wanted him and only him and was willing to fight for him, against friends if need be; like Kagome had done. At one time, she would have done that for him- she tried to, but he took too long to acknowledge her efforts.

Being back in the village, he had a moment to calm himself down, think about what had happened, and even deal with his feelings over it all. He was supposed to go back in a couple of days for that stupid gathering but he wasn't sure if he wanted to see her and his brother… together. Still it would be nice to see Kagome and make sure fuck-face was keeping her happy. If anything, his brother was the polar opposite of himself in terms of emotions. If he and Kagome couldn't become a couple- with all the fighting and yelling between them, and too close in similarity temperaments- then maybe she and Sesshoumaru could. It might work. Hell, he'd seen weirder things.

Mind made up, he decided he would return to the west in two days and attend the celebration. It would hurt, but seeing Kagome had always made him feel better. He wanted to be a little selfish. If Kagome smelled sad in any way, he would remove the ice icicle in the bastard's ass and replace it with his sword.

~*~

They had finished the meal, after much difficulty from not being able to keep their hands and eyes focused on their food, and were now in the sitting area. Sesshomaru was seated on the big crimson pillow with Kagome in his lap. She was contently enjoying the steady rise and fall of his chest as he breathed, his hands as they traced the outline of her body, and the fluttering kisses behind her ear. The tension in the air was so thick, they could hardly breathe. She had been the one that wanted to sit in front of the fire though, just for a bit of time, so he granted her a wish.

So here they sat, his arms around her and his nose at her neck. He could smell her desire, the want he elicited simply by holding her close, barely touching her skin, and wanted nothing more than to strip her of all her garments and fully take her where they sat, but he would let her initiate their coupling. Leaving the choice in her hands, letting her act of her own growing needs, would soften that last lingering apprehension that seemed to always reside within her soul. He could sense it, smell it, now. It was minute, but it was just enough to taint her delicious scent.

Kagome could barely concentrate, her mind and body growing frustrated that he had made no move to take her other than his wicked teasing. She was also nervous. She was not a virgin, not for a while, but that didn't mean she knew much about sex. She knew what she could do with her hands and mouth, how to bring pleasure to herself and to her partner. She knew what went where, but she was still very much a novice in comparison to Sesshoumaru. Her one full sex partner had not been very experienced himself. He still knew more than she, and had taught her about the pleasures of the flesh. They learned more on each other. But she knew there was more, had read about it and seen it- thanks to easily accessible information- and that was what had spurned her search for more. She had a passion that needed to be filled. She definitely found it with Sesshoumaru, but would she satisfy him? What if she wasn't what he expected? Based on their foreplay, she was sure he had high expectations. Would she meet them?

"Miko, cease your worries." His voice was mumbled as he feathered kisses along her shoulder.

Kagome sighed. He was right, all this time, they explored each other's bodies. Found each other's pleasure points, discovered how to bring each other to multiple climaxes with no more than hands and mouths- teases and touches. He always loved everything that she did and told her after each bout of play. His ministrations were never wrong as he played with her body. Everything would be fine. She brought her hand to his at her waist, threading their fingers together.

Sesshomaru noticed the tension dissipate. After spending so much time with her, it was fairly easy to know what she was thinking of in this instance. It was ridiculous and he was not about to let her little nerves mess up what he had wanted for so long. This was something she also wanted but hadn't allowed herself to completely pursue.

Kagome had made up her mind, it was now or never and she chose now.

Kagome pulled away from his lap, turned around, and moved to straddle him, her arms around his neck and her thighs spreading to seat his waist between them.

"I want you." She pulled herself closer, brushing her check along his own as she placed her lips against his ear. "I want to feel you within me." She peeked her tongue out, licking the shell before she spoke again, the words warm whispers against the moistened flesh.

"Do you want me?"

Sesshomaru almost shuddered, reveling in the feeling of her flesh on top of his, her covered core right over his slightly engorged cock, her lips nibbling his lobe. He brought his hands to her arms and pushed her away, only enough to look directly into her eyes.

"Such a silly question Miko." With that said, he crashed his lips on hers. He wrapped his arms around her as he enjoyed the taste of her. His hands dropped to her firm ass and pulled her onto his hardening cock, inciting a long moan for the miko.

It had been so long, and as much as he would like to draw this out, he knew that she would drive him to the brink very quickly.

He stopped kissing her on the lips to move to firmer planes. She greedily sucked in oxygen as his lips moved traced her neck. He nipped and suckled on the place where he would mark her as his; he resisted the growing urge to mark her and moved to her pulse point.

Kagome had to stop him before they were both lost. She wanted to move to the bed and show him his surprise. She loosened her tight grasp of his haori, bringing her hands to his face, pulling him to her for another kiss and then drew back to look in his eyes.

"Come Lord Sesshomaru, I have a surprise for you."

She slipped from his lap and stood, taking his hand as she did so to bring him along. They padded to the futon where she directed him to sit. Sesshomaru sat before her on the futon, in a relaxed seiza position. She stood facing him, pelvis directly in front of his face. Her breathing was still heavy from their kiss and she wanted nothing more for than for him to rip the robe away from her, throw her on the bed and take her, but he had done all this for her, had waited this long, and she wanted to at least go through with her plan to surprise him.

She untied her obi; she could feel his eyes on her, devouring her as she pulled the knot apart. When it came undone she let it fall forgotten to the floor. Her kimono followed soon after, fluttering to the floor, revealing her red with lace trim cheeky panty and matching demi bra.

Sesshomaru stared almost wide-eyed at her. She had not worn this. It must have been hidden away in her pack. Kami, she should always wear red. It went so deliciously with the tone and texture of her skin. This vixen, she looked positively sinful. His erection strained to be free from his hakamas. She was going to be fucked hard soon.

Kagome was a little stunned as he just stared at her. She knew he liked her other red set, and had been waiting to show him this newest outfit. She'd had little need for her underwear, being primarily with him in the sleeping room or just at his side. It had proved so much easier to not wear more than necessary to hide her body away from prying eyes- especially given his appetite with her body.

"Do you like it?" She lazily traced a line below her navel to the lace lining of her panty, letting her finger dip just under and wave back and forth, side to side.

Sesshomaru stared up into her eyes. Her lips swollen and her body bare to him. His gaze drifted to her hand as she traced the garment covering her womanhood. She continued to test the limits of his control. He placed his hands on her hips and drew her closer, delicately sniffing her growing arousal at his proximity, and kissed her stomach. His hands moved to caress her ass and pulled her even closer. She had to bring her hands forward to steady herself, placing them on his shoulders. He lowered his face, briefly nosing her before he kissed the right crease at her thigh, then the other, before he kissed at her covered center. A fresh wave of arousal hit him then, her fingers tightened.

If she doubted his appreciation of her attire than she most assuredly got her "yes" when his lips once again kissed her lace covered core. He kissed and nipped until her panties were soaked, from both his saliva and her own juices. He then slid them to the side and slid his tongue into her. She mewled and begged for him to suck harder and he was happy to oblige.

She was grateful for his arm holding her up otherwise she would have collapsed on him, her hold on him shaky as he deftly speared his tongue into her. She never tired of what that muscle could do. He moved it inside of her then moved to suck on her clit, giving it a little nibble.

"Mmm… y-yes…oh …ah, yes"

Sesshomaru was sure that if he kept her for all eternity, he would never tire of her flavor. The way her voice washed over him with every moan.

"Sess...ah… please… hmm …make me …cum ahh"

There was nothing sweeter to his ears than the sound of her begging.

Kagome saw stars behind her eyes as he brought her to a high. Her legs turned into jelly and began to shake. Her eyes closed and her mouth was open as she let out a silent scream. She could feel herself being pulled down and deposited on the futon; her eyes remained closed as her breaths calmed. She heard movement and the swish of fabric- a light thud followed as it hit the floor. She opened her eyes. Sessshomaru was standing naked before her, his eyes were tinted red, his markings were jaggad, and his length was hard and red.

"Take those off miko, before I rip them off," He said in a feral voice. The tone left no room for question and Kagome wasted no time in removing one of her favorite sets from her body, throwing them towards the pile of clothes at his feet.

He knelt on the futon at her feet and began crawling up her body. No, not crawling, more like stalking his way over her prone form. He was soon on top of her, kissing her, kneading her breasts. She felt his manhood poking her in her thigh. She gasped as he bent his head to suck on a pert nipple as he played with its twin, his tongue twirling before he nipped at the hardened peak. His hand snuck between them to play at her mound, a finger slipping into her depths as his thumb circled her clit. She was still so aroused that she came easily and quickly onto his hand.

Sesshomaru was at his wits end. She came so quickly, but her moans told him that she was still needy. He had waited so long to have her and couldn't wait to be inside her warmth. His sticky hand grasped his cock, coating himself in her cum and his precum. He pulled himself firmly as he suckled her nipple. Leaving her breast he began to kiss her neck. He was throbbing and she was writhing beneath him. He didn't want to wait any longer.

"Whom do you want?"

"You," Kagome said desperately. She needed him inside her, to fill her and complete her.

He pulled her lower, centering his cock at her entrance.

"To whom will you belong?" He spread her legs as he seated himself between her thighs, grinding himself into her center, further lubricating his dripping cock with her own moisture.

"Hmm.. ha…"

He ground himself harder, the head of his cock pushing past the outer folds then withdrawing, he teased her as she tried to push down onto his cock, to sheath him within her walls.

"To whom… will you belong… Kagome?" he pushed himself deeper at her name, pulling back only enough to leave the head of his cock between her vaginal lips.

He was being mean, she thought. He was there, but would go no further, and he wouldn't let her move down onto him. She wanted to throw him onto his back and impale herself onto his length. To ride him so tortuously slow he would beg her.

He pushed and pulled once more to get her attention. " To whom, my little miko?"

"You, Sesshoumaru. I will belong to you." He smirked at her then, and slowly entered her. He fully seated himself within her, giving her time to accommodate his size. Her cunt held him like a glove, molding around his length perfectly. It was like nothing he had ever felt before. She was exceptionally tight, his entire length not able to be fully encased within her walls; her powers, that already tingled under her skin, that he had felt whenever they pleasured each other, played delightfully on the sensitive skin of his cock. Her walls were fluttering, her breathing becoming less labored as she relaxed around him.

Kagome was sure she had never felt anything this good in her entire life. She had wasted so much time with her insecurities, time that could have been with him pleasuring her body. He continued to trail kisses across her torso but he didn't move. Oh why… why wouldn't this male move.

"Please." She rotated her hips, bringing forth a moan from between her lips and heard the same from the demon above her.

Her begging made him harder, if that was even possible. He slid out slowly and then surged forward slowly, adding an extra push of his cock deeper into her.

"Please what pet" Sesshomaru was barely keeping control himself. The friction from her tight walls was almost enough to make him cum on the spot. Still, he loved her pleads for him to take her, to finish her.

"Please mmm, move. Fuck me.r."

He moved slowly, pushing her legs apart a little more as he slid within her walls, he pulled back slowly and surged forth, the passage smooth, but still tight even with the amount of lubrication as her walls were still firm his cock was quite large.

"Faster"

Sesshomaru increase his speed just a little, to where you were sure the notice the change. To Kagome though, it was still agonizingly slow.

"Like this pet."

Kagome was coming undone; he was torturing her, a fact that she would file away later. She just wanted him to go faster, harder; like the demon he was. She felt the build-up, but she couldn't grasp it. It was so close. If only he'd…

"Hmm Yes...no. I want, need."

Sesshomaru surged forward harder, hitting a spot that made her eyes roll in the back of her head. He knew what she wanted… but wanted her to say it.

"What do you need pet, tell me."

Sesshomaru took a dusty colored nipple in his mouth and suckled. She was so tight… his aura was rising to meet hers, they clashed together strongly but painfully, a good painful, creating a pleasing sensation on his skin. He wanted to pound into her; all she had to do was say…

Kagome was overloaded. She thought she would pass out from the pleasure. She wanted, no needed, him to fuck her.

"Fuck me Sess… harder and faster."

Sesshomaru said nothing as he surged forward quickly, earning him more lovely sounds from the female beneath him. Kagome gripped his shoulders as he took her hard, trying to meet his thrusts. He growled above her and he moved faster.

She was going to come again. She couldn't control it nor did she want to. Sweet release was so close.

Sesshomaru was not faring much better. The way her aura danced across his skin was sending him into frenzy.

"Hmm yes there… there, I'm gonna…" She fluttered round him, tightening, trying to hold him in place.

"Cum bitch, tell the world to whom you belong."

She came hard, her walls clenching around his girth, and screaming his name in bits and pieces- white lighting behind her eyes as his aura melded with her. Her walls gripped him so hard that he could not hold back any longer and he came as well. He thrust slowly, extending both their climaxes as his cock pulsed and his seed filled her. He felt as there aura's molded to each other then briefly become one before retreating back to their bodies. He emptied himself inside her, his cock twitching even as there was nothing left to expel. Her walls relaxed and his cock slowly began to soften. Her warmth felt so good that he remained within her, poised above her sweaty body. Still inside her, he moved forward to kiss her, she barley responded. The events tonight played in his head, their auras becoming one. It felt important; he would have to research that later. For now, he was content to stay where he was.

Kagome's eyes were still closed as she rode out the waves of euphoria that washed over her, she couldn't move. She was spent, at least for the time being. She felt Sesshomaru roll onto his side, pulling her along. He was still within her, and though a little awkward, he felt to good there and she felt to good to move. He stroked her back as his other arm cradled their heads.

"Miko?"

He sounded worried but she was still unable to respond, he had taken her ability to think or speak words. She only wanted to rest.

She responded by snuggling up to him and sighed contentedly- he chuckled. She would try to figure her name and who this male was that gave her so much pleasure later, after a little nap.

She was exhausted and he knew it. He would grant her a reprieve… for now.
