A/N: So I don't feel amazing right now. And it shows in this addition to Fixing Her…forgive me.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Sesshomaru took a slow breath after the glow around Calli had subsided. Her skin was no longer red and blistered. It was the color of ivory under all those tattoos she bore. She looked normal, but he knew that she was different.
Let's hope that it worked, he thought, watching Calli start to rouse.
Calli blinked as she fully woke up. She glanced over at him and frowned. Sesshomaru knew that she was mostly entuned with her body. She would know that something was wrong in a heartbeat.
"Calli."
"What did you do?" Calli demanded, eyes flashing.
"Calli, you must understand…"
"Sesshomaru, what did you do?"
Sesshomaru shook his head. "I fixed the problem."
Calli sat up and crossed her arms. "You are telling me that I'm a problem?"
"No."
"But you had to fix me?" Calli stood up and she glared up at him. "Why couldn't you leave well enough alone? Why?"
Sesshomaru looked away. "You must understand."
"I understand that I can't trust you. At all. And the people that I can't trust, lose me completely."
Sesshomaru's heart felt cold. "You're not saying that…?"
"Gett out of my home, Sesshomaru. Don't come back."
Calli turned away from him. Sesshomaru's eyes narrowed. No one dismissed him in such a manner. Not even the girl he cared so much about.
"Calli, you're acting like a child."
"Go. Now."
Sesshomaru straightened to his full height. "No." He reached out and grabbed her by the shoulder. "You're not dismissing me from your life."
Calli spun around and smacked him, hard. Far harder than she had been able to previously. "Look what you've done to me!"
Sesshomaru held her gaze. "I am. And I am pleased. You are stronger than you were before."
Calli frowned. "How?"
Sesshomaru's gaze lowered to the choker around her neck. Calli touched it and tried to wrench it off. But it wouldn't budge.
"Sesshomaru! What the hell?"
"Only the person who put it on you can remove it," Sesshomaru explained, watching her struggle.
"Sesshomaru!"
"I will not remove it. Ever." Sesshomaru told her. "For it will extend your life and abilities."
Tears fell down her cheeks in red rivers. "You bastard!"
Sesshomaru was confused. "What's wrong?"
Calli turned away again. "Do you not realize who you gave powers to besides me?"
Sesshomaru frowned. "Do you think I didn't weigh the risks?"
The girl touched the choker. "Do you think she cares about you? Or anyone?"
"You're stronger now."
"So is she!"
"Then fight for your control!"
Calli rolled her shoulder as if she was struck there. "I am disappointed in you, Sesshomaru."
Sesshomaru moved towards her again. Calli hissed at him and danced out of reach. He could smell her pheromones, knew that his decision had awakened her cycle.
"Calli…"
Her eyes narrowed. "Try and you'll regret it."
Sesshomaru moved forward, instincts taking over. Calli evaded him easily and growled, throwing black fire back at him. Sesshomaru bared his fangs and continued the chase…
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Sesshomaru released inside Calli and slowly pulled his hand away from her neck. Calli glared wetly up at him when he pulled out of her and moved to the side. She immediately curled in on herself.
"Happy now?" she demanded, not looking at him.
Sesshomaru sat at the side of the bed. "It doesn't have to be this way, Calli."
"Yes, it does. Because I can't trust you."
Sesshomaru frowned. "That will not always be the case…"
Calli refused to look at him. "You'd be surprised."
Sesshomaru grabbed her chin and turned her face towards him. "You are not going to be mad at me forever, my mate."
He kissed her on the lips. She refused to kiss him back. Sesshomaru rose to his feet slowly, rearranging his pelt.
"You will see and understand some day," he promised, walking away from her.
He did not miss the sound of Calli's breath hitching as he walked away from her and into the adjoining bathroom.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
A/N: I hate that I couldn't thought process more. Maybe next time? If there is a next time. -Scarlet
