Author's Notes: So I have put a lot of research into this. I mean it! I did days of research into Sadism. The different types to best find a good fit for Shu. On top of the 'victim' reactions. How it affects them in different areas of their personal life and mental health. On top of demon mating rituals, Demons heat if you will. How long it lasts, the time frame it last. I wanted to go for an authentic feel for this one. Add in the musical terminology that I refreshed myself on for section titles. So I just hope as you read, or after you read, you are respectful to me as an author. Because this was not an easy thing to do. Especially researching Sadism in-depth, to the point of asking college professors, and students who are going for their degrees to be a psychologist for the criminally disturbed.

This story has had serious editing to it due to the level of mature content that is placed in it for the subject matters.


The First Movement: Double Exposition - Danse Macabre

He had just wanted to taste Yui's blood. He was deciding that being himself would be best. He was neither forceful, obnoxious, or moody. Albeit, he would never admit it aloud, but Shu knew he was lazy and didn't care. So, when he heard her say she was going to take a bath, he knew that it was the perfect opportunity.

Waiting for the moment, he heard the water in the tub turn off; he teleported right into it and not caring if his clothes were wet. As long as his MP3 Player didn't get damaged, he was okay with whatever, and it had worked out beautifully as she showed her concern, lecturing him in her annoying manner until he pulled her into the water, partially straddling him. So, the moment she started to scream like she was being murdered, causing his sensitive ears to feel as if they were being ruptured, he caught the faint scent of blood. Shu was sitting up and wide awake. Hands still on Yui as she struggled, the acrid smell of her fear not mixing well with the blood now hanging in the air.

When she pulled to get away from him, and the water splashed up between their bodies, a deep pink, almost red color. Shu stood picking her up and tossing her from the bathtub as the water darkened to red. The soft grunt he heard from Yui as she was caught by one of his brothers, Shu just stared down at the water as a pale hand burst up through the surface. He could feel something crawling across every inch of his skin as he pulled his lips back, baring his fangs as he grasped the hand and pulled it up.

The slight weight on it as the arm came out of the water had his attention when he saw a dark-haired, petite girl with pale skin in shredded clothes come out with it. Not sure if what was going on was some elaborate prank, and the girl was part of it, or the girl did something and was a threat. Soon though, as the water ran from her hair, cleaning her face, as it ran in rivulets, dyed crimson from her person into the water. He was able to smell the scent of blood even stronger. Telling him, it was coming from the girl he now held by the wrist as she started to move. A soft, pained moan was escaping her lips.

The smell of blood was enticing, to say the least, as he felt something primal in him come alive. Pulling her body, as it continued to pale as more blood seeped from whatever wound was on her person, flush against his body with one arm while using the other to pull her head to the side. He struck quick, sinking his fangs into the now exposed throat. With his first pull of her blood rushing into his mouth, he felt an explosion of power wash through him. It danced on his taste buds. Making the girl squirm against his hold and exciting whatever the primal force that had awoken in him. Giving a low growl of warning from deep in his throat, Shu continued to drink. Enjoying the rather heady and potent effect it was having on him.

When he saw movement in his peripheral, he unlatched himself, swiping his tongue over the mark roughly — eliciting a whimper from the girl. He turned his gaze towards where he'd seen the movement. Seeing a group of males, whom he knew, but instinct told him were a threat, as he looked at them through a red haze. So, lashing out with his aura, not even holding back anything, imbuing it with every ounce of killing intent he could muster. Making the one who stepped forward jump back as they all gave him various looks ranging from shock to fear and dare he guess amusement in the case of one particular brother.

He was not caring, as the small girl in his arms started to squirm and wriggle even more against him. Drawing his attention back to her and feeling his lips pull up into a snarl, he spun his body so he could keep his eyes on those gathered. As they all stood there watching warily, but hungry by the fact their eyes were glowing a luminescent red.

Loosening his hold on her, he spun the raven-haired girl, so she was facing them, back pressed to his chest. Causing her to cry out in pain as he used his free hand to tilt her head to the other side and sunk his fangs back into her. Noting that her blood came a bit more sluggishly this time. Keeping his eyes pinned on the group to watch them, mock them, as he drank deeply once more, wrapping his other arm around her waist. Letting his hand spread wide to caress her exposed flesh, through the tattered top she wore, until his thumbs brushed under her breast. Making her groan in a mix of pain, pleasure, and a hint of fear at the mere touch of his hands.

The sound mixing with the faint echo of the classical music still playing in his earbuds was like the most exquisite concerto being played at Carnegie Hall, causing him to rumble low in his chest to indicate her response pleased him. Only to feel her body start to go cold under his lips. Telling him, she would not last long. Before feeling her small hands grasping at his wrists, pulling, her blunt nails digging into his flesh, inducing the smallest amount of pain in him as he felt them break his skin and drawing blood.

Eyes were going down to where his blood was seeping around her blunted nails and fingertips of both his wrist, he felt a burst of power come from where their blood was now mixing at his wrist. Causing him to pull back as the red haze began to leave his vision, Shu shook his head as another burst of power erupted around them. Narrowing his eyes, still tinted red with the bloodlust, he leaned back down and roughly licking the bite mark to close it. Then teleported them to his room, leaving the others behind, their faces showing shock, anger, and irritation.

This was his prey. No, that was not right. This girl, whoever she was, was his property. He owned her. So with quick movements, he removed what was left of her top and had her face down on his bed. Eyes were caressing her back, which was covered in what looked like claw marks from a five-fingered individual. Still running on instinct, Shu knelt on the bed by her and began to clean the scratches. No, the deep furrows in her flesh. He was easily tasting both demon and dog on her. Curious, but not stopping, he lapped his tongue over each one in a row before starting again and savoring the taste of her unique blood until he smelled the salt in the air.

Stopping, he sat up and looked at her face and seeing quickly that she was crying and had her eyes open and unseeing. Her mouth was working soundlessly until she was able to utter barely audible words. InuYasha...why?

Rage exploded in him at hearing the name of another, possibly a male from her lips. Lifting a hand, he pressed it down on the claw marks on her back and watching as her body pressed into the bed as it arched and she screamed aloud in pain. More tears were falling from her eyes as she thrashed a bit before passing out on him. Leaving him wanting to know who this person was. Why she would call for them.

She was running through the forest. Her breath was coming in a labored gasp as she forced herself to push on. Something had happened, and now the man she loved was chasing her. His demon blood in control and thoroughly enraged. She knew what he wanted, as she was still wearing it around her neck, and had not made the wish.

He had been careful of not letting go of Tessaiga and had been perfectly fine that morning. He had gone out with Miroku to help with an exorcism of a semi-powerful demon. Sango, having been over halfway through her pregnancy, was left behind with her. Like the sunset, she had felt InuYasha return. Except his aura was lashing out wildly, and the air smelled of blood. She had motioned for Sango to stay put, and she had gone out to meet him alone. She was hoping to quell him like before. Even in this state, he didn't want to harm her. But oh how wrong she had been.

Now she was running through the forest trying to get away from him as she made her way towards Sesshomaru's castle. Which oddly was not that far from the village. Just very well hidden behind a barrier. Pain suddenly blossomed across her back as she stumbled forward. She was landing hard on her hands and knees and feeling her skin being ripped open as her back burned. She didn't have to look to know what had hit her. It was his primary attack, blades of blood. Swallowing as she heard him come closer, Kagome pushed herself up on unsteady legs and threw up a barrier to keep him back as she took off again.

"Get back here, wench! I want the jewel! It is mine!"

Biting her lip till she tasted blood, Kagome continued to run. She fought back the tears. This was not right. Something had to have happened on the mission. Where was Mirkou? Was he even alright? There was something not right with all this as she heard a loud growl as her barrier went down. In the back of her head, she heard Tsubaki's voice chanting in a sing-song manner, over and over.

"Fade from light, turn to dark. Slip through the cracks of time. Find no place to belong, be obedient. A thrall of perfection with no will to be your own shall you have. Be chained to one who will not return your desires. Be bound to one who will hurt you. Be tethered, unable to speak, to act freely. Be fastened with no powers of your own to call your in times of need. Time will not give release to peace of heart, mind, soul, and body for eternity under a blood contract. Until blood is shed or death granted."

More pain exploded through her head as she burst through the forest into a clearing with a large and black looking lake under the moonless sky. Kagome felt her foot caught on something on the ground. Her body once more stumbling forward into the freezing water and draining her body of its heat quickly. Only to hear as InuYasha landed on the edge of the lake.

Thinking of only getting away, she began to swim towards the other side of the lake. Each stroke was getting harder and harder as she lost more blood and heat from her body. She was feeling a sharp pain along the left side of her rib cage, just as her head dipped under the water, her conscious fading to black. Her blue eyes were closing as she mentally just wanted to be somewhere else. Somewhere where she could feel warm.

Slowly she felt her mind coming too. She was on something soft, and she was warm. She was shifting herself as she struggled to wake up fully. Kagome felt her body silently scream in pain. The effect had her eyes snapping open wide. When they focused, she was staring at a beige ceiling. Not wanting to hurt further, she let her eyes slowly roam around. She was taking in the 'very' modern details of the beige and sand-colored walls with a few pictures on them. In her perusal of the room, she suddenly felt another's presence.

Carefully she let her head turn toward where she felt the presence. It most definitely was not human. She could tell it was a demon, but not what type. So, when her gaze alighted on a pale skinned boy with sun-kissed hair and icy blue eyes staring at her while lying with hands-on his stomach next to her. Kagome felt her cheeks heat up.

Opening her mouth to say something, Kagome snapped it shut when he moved, so he was leaning over her. The look in his eyes told her that he was a predator and not mess with him. His gaze was going over her slowly as if committing every detail of her face to memory before he leaned back. Still, with her head to the side he had been laying on, she saw him sitting back on his feet watching her.

"I do not like needless things. It annoys me when people talk too much. Stay quiet."

At his words, Kagome felt something settle over her. Instantly she knew what it was. The sound of Tsubaki's laughter echoed in her mind as she was put under the command and forced to obey it. Even in death, the dark priestess was making her life a living hell. So, she just laid there staring at the young male demon balefully. It was some time before he spoke again. And she listened since she could do little else. When he finished speaking, he looked at her expectantly. Looking irritable when she didn't reply, to which she just rolled her eyes at him. She was trying to keep calm as she felt her irritation at the guy.

"You will speak and answer me when I ask you a question. Who are you? Who is InuYasha? How did you get here?"

At his new command and questions, Kagome felt the pressure on her body ease up as she sighed.

"Kagome Higurashi. A friend..or was... Dark priestess' curse."

Her reply was short and clipped. She answered each of his questions. Before the pressure settled back around her body, making her silent. And all she wanted to do was to rant and rave at the guy. Who was now looking at her skeptically as if he didn't believe her, before he lifted his arms, pushing his sleeves up enough to see his wrist?

"Do you know what these are?"

She was examining the black marks on his wrist, which looked at the bars to a musical score decorating them. Kagome blinked as she thought about it. She was jumping when she took too long to answer, and he growled at her in a warning — making her body tense up painfully.

"Tattoos?"

The look on his face said she got it wrong before he smiled. Though it most definitely was not friendly; in fact, it made her think of excruciating pain, the male shook his head and was suddenly lying down. Eyes closed as he placed earbuds in his ears and pressed at the small MP3 Player she hadn't noticed was attached to his neck via a choker with a butterfly on it.

She got the hint he was done talking to her for the moment. Choosing to ignore her, Kagome was okay with that. She would use this time to try and heal her body. Closing her eyes, she went to that place in her mind and body, where her Reiki resided. Only to be met with a barrier blocking her from her gift. Meaning she would not be able to heal herself quicker.

With a strangled cry, she felt the bed under her shift. Opening her eyes, she saw that the blond was facing her and glaring darkly at her. The silent message to make no sound if she didn't want harm was evident in his eyes. Giving him a small nod of her head, Kagome closed her eyes and began to wonder what the hell she got into this time before exhaustion finally pulled her down again.

The Second Movement: Impetuouso - Impudent

Shu was resting on the couch in the living room when the room's other occupant stood up and left. From the faint sounds of their footfalls, they were heading to the library, yet again, for another book. Not bothering to open his eyes to look at them, he let himself settle further into the cushions. His mind is already wandering down the many paths it took.

Being lazy was different than having a lack of wit and intelligence. Shu had both of those in spades, just didn't have the drive to fill his role as eldest and head of household. More than willing to leave it to his younger brother Reiji who had aspirations to take their father's place as Demon King at some point. That was a responsibility he didn't care for thanks to their mother.

Letting out a sigh as his mind drifted through the last seven weeks. Kagome had arrived just days after Yui had been a part of everything that had gone on in that month. From Yui's first awakening and revival of Cordelia to her being stolen by the Mukami's. Her reaction to both had been somewhat unusual. The latter, she had demanded to be allowed to help retrieve Yui. Claiming she could fight just as well as the rest of them.

When all his brothers had promptly denied her, a rare thing for them all to agree on something, she had gone and proven herself to be somewhat dangerous. Her knowledge of herbs and Buddhist prayer were no joke. She is giving them an insight into her personality, slightly vindictive, which he found at times too complex to bother to unravel. Not that he didn't find it a little amusing to see her interact with his siblings. She was finding a place with each of them.

What concerned him was that she had no self-preservation. She acted as if it were the most natural thing in the world to be surrounded by demons. Treating them all as if they were equals, showing no fear and or ever presenting herself prey to them and tempting his brothers into many different scare tactics. To which Kagome had not even batted an eyelash as she berated and lectured them.

Her first night eating with them, he had found that she was quiet, not talking. At least until he told her not to be rude, she was earning him another one of her baleful glares before she started answering his brother's questions, if not just to shut them up. Only to have Reiji insult her.

The fact she had set her fork and knife down on her plate with barely a sound, taking her time to wipe her hands and mouth on the napkin before politely stating that she had no appetite anymore and excusing herself. Getting a snide comment from his brother as she walked to the doors, pausing briefly. Turning, she flashed a bright and sunny smile, that even he found uncomfortable. Only to tell Reiji that 'Arrogant, know-it-all jerks, tended to kill her appetite.' Effectively shutting him up.

Later on the ride to school, Reiji had commented that she was rather impudent. Shu had silently agreed, while his other brothers, along with Yui, laughed at Reiji's expense. Kagome was good at putting each of his brothers in their place in her unique way. Except for himself, she never spoke back to him. But her eyes told him everything he needed to know.

Well aware of many things about human females, Shu had told Kagome when he realized her smell was changing, that if she needed any feminine products to ask Yui. The scent of her anger almost overpowered him as she glared at him before slamming the door to the bathroom that connected their standard rooms. Just to hear the same thing with the other door that would lead to her room, accompanied by the faint grumbling about stupid male demons and their inappropriate comments about delicate items.

The next seven days had become a significant pain for him. It was annoying him much. He had left that day with his brothers for school, Kagome, still rather pissy about his earlier comment, only to come home to the house filled with that smell. It was light, but it was unmistakable. Quickly the house was searched, only to reveal a very startled Kagome curled up in the window, which was cracked open, reading — providing them with the source of the aroma.

It should not have been possible. But the flushed looked to Kagome's face as her blue eyes shone brightly at them. She was in heat, a demonesses heat. Quickly he had removed himself from the situation. That had been an unwise decision on his part. Since it only got stronger, more alluring to his brothers, while not affecting him. It didn't help that it had a particular bouquet to it because she was untouched. She was leading him having to fight his youngest brother off, nearly killing him and threatening the others. Before teleporting with Kagome in hand to her room. And telling her that she had to stay in her place until she was done with her issue.

It had happened again at the beginning of this month, and he was sure it would be happening each month. He had even broken down to ask Reiji to look into what could be going on. Who promptly informed him that he already had and said it was not possible. But he did say since she mentioned a curse, it could be a part of it. Possibly to make her more susceptible prey. And with the Mukami's now randomly showing up at their home that they both had a mutual enemy with the founders, or Pureblood brothers Carla and Shin Tsukinami. It made it more difficult. He did not like their interest in Kagome, though she treated them the same way as his brothers.

He was shifting on the couch, a familiar twinge of foreboding spread through him and making Shu rub at his wrist and the tattoos as Kagome called them. He knows from experience that he couldn't ignore this. Shu frowned, cracking his eyes open and swiftly teleporting to where the girl was. Leaning against the inside of the Library door, he watched as she tugged on a book that was on a high shelf, while precariously hanging onto it with her other hand.

Letting his gaze drop-down, he noted she was barefoot, and her toes were curling on the edges of the bookshelf. He wants nothing more than to throttle her as she got the book free with a sharp jerk of her arm. He was causing her to overbalance and fall backward. His body moved on its own. And soon, he was pinning her to the bookshelf. As her blue eyes, now wide, looked up at him in shock, before they flashed with annoyance and anger at him. Reminding him of just how reckless, foolish, and impulsive, she could be with herself and her actions regarding himself — allowing anger to show on his face as he looked down at her — pressing her tighter to the shelf as he squeezed the wrist that holds the book.

She groused silently to herself as she looked up to where the book she wanted was. Already having put the previous book she'd been reading back on the shelf and narrowing her eyes as she sucked on her bottom lip, lightly chewing on it. Finally, Kagome decided just to get it herself. Knowing she should ask for help, but asking Shu who was resting in the living room for help was out of the question since he already made it so she couldn't speak unless he asked her a question. And bothering one of the other brothers were out of the problem.

Bending over, she slipped her shoes off, then her socks. She had climbed harder things in the feudal era; this would be a piece of cake. With that thought in mind, Kagome began her climb up. Making sure she had a firm grip on the shelves with both her hands and her toes. It wasn't until she was tugging on the book, which didn't want to be moved, that she got a sinking feeling this was not a good idea. Knowing it was too late to stop what she was doing, Kagome gave an extra hard tug on the offensive book — smiling triumphantly when it was jerked free. Only to feel her body become weightless as she became airborne.

She was tensing her body in preparation for landing hard on the floor. Hoping she landed on the throw rug, Kagome felt the air leave her lungs suddenly. Her body was suddenly pinned to the bookshelf. Well, except for the appendage that held the book. That was in a vice-like grip. Lifting her head, she saw Shu looking down at her.

Unable to help it as various thoughts danced around in her head, she let the annoyance and anger she felt show. She was earning her a dark look from the said male. Before she was pushed even harder into the shelving unit, she was feeling the wood bit into her ribs right under her breast, along with her cheek, stomach, and below her hips. She was coupled with her wrist feeling like it was being crushed to the breaking point.

Her mind instantly went back to the day right after she had her menstrual cycle. She had wanted to make cookies and get permission to use the kitchen from Reiji, but under the condition, she cleaned it herself. Everything was within reach for, except for the mixing bowls. Even now, Kagome had no clue as to why they were on top of the cabinets.

So, as she had just done, she took her shoes and socks off and climbed up onto the counter. Easily able to reach the object of her desire. That was when it had happened. A pair of hands grasped her hips, and on instinct, she had reacted. Body conditioned thanks to Miroku's perverted ways. She had spun around and hit the offender with the mixing bowl as she started to scream hentai. Only the words wouldn't come out of her mouth, telling her who it was that had grabbed her. Just before she saw icy blue eyes flash red and her body was jerked from the counter and bent over the nearby floating counter. Him pressing against her legs, hips, and low back as he growled in warning to her. Before laying into her about being stupid, attacking her better, and a whole bunch of other stuff.

Her instincts were telling her to submit and accept the rebuke for what it was. But being the slightly emotional person she was, her temper flared, and of course, she had fought back. She was making it worse. The response she got from Shu for her actions was him grabbing a knife and slamming it into the counter next to her head, drawing her gaze to it and the doorway. Where all his brothers were standing and watching. Causing her face to heat up in humiliation and embarrassment as she continued to wiggle where she was pinned. And now she was in the same predicament again. Somehow Kagome knew the gods were laughing at her for this. As she stared up at him, she squirmed to try to getaway.

"I told you if you needed to ask for help, Kagome."

"..."

"Answer me."

The command in his voice made her want to bite her tongue off. She didn't know the specifics of this damn curse. And disliked the fact that the only time Shu took an interest in her was either when she was doing something that potentially put her in danger or when she did not have her body boiling for seven days.

"I thought I was more than capable of getting it myself."

She growled in annoyance and squirmed again, this time harder, in an attempt to get free from him. Feeling his body shift slightly as she suddenly realized from the sensation of electricity running up her spine. He wasn't just pinning her with his upper body and arms; no, the jerk had his leg between hers to keep her from reaching the floor. And her movements had an adverse effect on her body if she moved a certain way.

Being a virgin didn't make her ignorant of her own body. Hell, she had taken Sex Ed in middle school before her 'adventures' had begun... and that information to take care of her individual needs due to her companion at that time ignoring her. Yeah, she knew what that little electric feeling was. So, of course, in her embarrassment, her cheeks burned hot, because she was aware that vampires were demons and demons had a great sense of smell.

"You are annoying..."

At his three simple words, Kagome felt her eyes go wide as she growled low in her throat as her anger got the better of her. Throwing her head back, she tried to headbutt him. And in the process of doing that, she saw that the rest of the Sakamaki brothers were once more in the doorway watching their interactions. She was flooding her system with more humiliation. This was not her day, and she was going to blame Shu, who was now staring at her with red-tinted eyes again clearly, very pissed off.

Third Movement: A tempo; affannato/affannoso - Concede

Shu cracked his eye open, not even bothering to turn his head to look at the intruder into his room. He knew who it was by the smell alone. Feeling curious, Shu shifted himself into a half-sitting position against the headboard of his bed. So, he could see Kagome standing at the corner at the end of his bed. The look in her blue eyes as she stood there fidgeting nervously. It was day six of seven. This was her third month going through this heat. He knew it was bothering her much. More-so after what happened two nights ago, the first night of the full moon — letting a smile curled his lips upwards as he stared her down — making her blanch as she realized what he was thinking.

He had gone to bed a bit earlier, noting that the light was on in the bathroom. Nothing new, since Kagome enjoyed her 'bathing' time. So, when he was roused from his sleep by a soft sound, that shouldn't have been heard, because one of his earbuds had fallen from his ears. Shu saw that the light was still on, the door open slightly like it was supposed to be. Something he had demanded after Kagome had slipped on the floor, falling into one of the two mirrors that were attached to the back of both doors leading to the bathroom. Slicing herself open, and then again later, when she had fallen asleep while taking a bath, nearly drowning herself — causing him to do something when he was supposed to be relaxing.

Having taken a glance at the clock, he saw that several hours had gone by since he had gone to bed. Ready to ignore it, that sound came again, accompanied by the slight splashing of water. She was drawing him from his bed to stand in the bathroom door. Where he got a very magnificent view of Kagome. Left-arm over one edge of the tub, while her right leg hooked over the opposite side. Her head was thrown back, eyes closed, skin flushed as she pleasured herself.

Once the shock wore off, he had felt himself grow irritated, and just as she gave a low muffled moan, back-arching, he had closed the distance from the door to the tub. Roughly grabbing her right arm and jerking her from the freezing water and earning a shriek that had his ears hurting as he held her eye level. Before shaking her by the said arm and reminding her that she needed to 'ask' for help with taking care of things. Then she dropped her on the bathroom floor and returned to bed.

So, as he waited patiently, because he was patient, for her speech, Shu couldn't help but feel smug at the fact she was standing there. That primal part of him that had come out the night she had arrived was stirring in him. Not that he cared one bit.

"Shu... I ...was wondering if...you could.. help me... take the edge... off this problem, whatever it is."

At her words, he felt his body stiffen. She was still clueless about being in heat. He saw no need to inform her what it was since she had no clue about it or the markings on his wrist. And wouldn't until she figured it out. Her wording displeased him, making that primal part of him feel rage. Something he understood, the woman was too damn prideful, independent, and downright stubborn. Even now, she hadn't requested him to help fix the problem but to help take the edge off. It was an insult to him. So, letting the smile, he had on his lips vanish.

Shu just stared at her as she stared back. Those dark blue eyes were assessing him carefully with a great deal of wariness in them — an idea formed in his head. Giving her a small nod of his head, he took one of his hands and laid it at his side at an angle from his body, palm up. He waited a few minutes before pointedly looking at his hand, to her, and back again before speaking.

"Use it as you see fit."

The look of confusion on her face before horror bloomed in her eyes at what he was saying. Raising an eyebrow, he shrugged and closed his eyes. She would either take what he was willing to offer or leave. Either way, he settled himself, focusing on his music to go back to sleep.

It was frustrating with what was going on with her body. It had been three and a half months since she had arrived in this stupid mansion. Three and a half months of dealing with at first six very dominant, aggressive, and possibly abused as children, who were all vampires. Add in that last month after getting Yui back; they had acquired four more vampires that showed up at random. All after Yui's blood as she was their sacrificial bride. Not to mention that there were two more that were genuinely asinine vampires, who had the most elite attitudes after poor Yui.

But Kagome was still more concerned with her situation, even after forming a friendship with the girl. And a semi-friendship with the others. Most of them Kagome liked a lot. They reminded her of her friends in various ways, so she could easily interact and outmaneuver them. Except for one, who was the bane of her existence. The man was just infuriating. One, Shu Sakamaki, loved to ignore her while she was going through her seven days of hell.

Though he made it painfully clear to his brothers that if they tried anything with her during this time, he would kill. She was almost doing so to Subaru. The Mukami brothers had learned this as well. She was leaving her feeling like some bitch in heat. Which she had been informed, upon complaining to Laito about it was precisely what she was. It had taken her a few minutes to comprehend, but when she did, she just stood up and walked away from the poor guy. Later he told her how to 'take the edge off it. Though he wisely didn't offer to help.

So, when this week had started, she had taken his advice. She knew her body and how to get off. Kagome had decided to wait until it began to get unbearable, which was the fourth night of this, or the first night of the full moon. Having heard Shu go to bed early, she bided her time until she knew he was out. Then she got herself into a comfortable position and tried.

It had seemed to work, but as time crept on, Kagome realized that she was not breaking apart. Adjusting her body several times, she just couldn't seem to crest the peak and fall into bliss. Her mind supplying a possibility that she needed something more, something that she couldn't provide herself. So when she was suddenly jerked out of the cold water, looking at an angry Shu who started to shake her by the arm he held. Said arm that had been pressed against her body as she masturbated before he rebuked her again, only to drop her on the floor.

Now, after some deliberation and much self-pep talking, Kagome was standing at the end of his bed, staring at him in horror. His meaning was apparent to her. This was not what she had wanted when she had asked him to help her take the edge off. Though the fact he seemed displeased with what she asked him after obviously recalling two nights ago, Kagome was getting angry.

The way he was now just relaxing as if going to sleep again, ignoring her. She bet he expected her just to leave his room. Narrowing her blue eyes as a faint smile crept across her face. Kagome took a deep breath and crawled onto his bed. He was offering an aide; she would take it. Even if nothing came of it, she would stick it to him not to push her, and she did fight back when adequately provoked.

Not taking her eyes from his face as he stirred a bit, but didn't open his eyes as she crawled onto the bed. She stopped when she reached where his arm lay with his hand palm up. Quickly she sat back on her heels and reached out to his arm, picking it up, placing it across her lap, before running her fingers up his arm and pressing lightly along the muscles there. Muscles to her shock that were more well defined than they appeared. As she watched what happened to his fingers with different pressure along his arm at various points.

Once she was happy with what she had seen, Kagome looked up and bared her teeth at him when she saw he had opened his eyes and was watching her. From what she could see, he showed he was leery. Tilting her head to the side, she placed his arm back down on the bed. Before shifting and crawling up to where he was in his leaning position. Turning, she sat back into the crook of his arm, adjusting herself so her head rested on his shoulder. Looking up at him, she noted his eyes had narrowed. Still, she bared her teeth to him once more, before she grabbed his arm, bending it just right so his hand was in her lap. Then in a swift motion, she had his hand between her legs, pressing it into her sex with one hand. While her other moved his arm until she had it where she wanted it.

Pressing down with her thumb on the muscle underneath, it caused his fingers to curl further into her womanhood. The feel of his cold flesh against her fevered flesh sent shivers coursing through her body as she felt him stiffen along her side. Letting her know she just took him by surprise. So, releasing her thumb, she moved it back towards his wrist and did it again. This time was moving different fingers into her.

Her other hand overlapping his hand, manipulating his fingers as she bent her knees and lifted her hips. She was thrusting those now extended fingers into her core as she rolled her hips against them. And she would claim if he had a beating heart, it would have stopped as she continued. Feeling the coil in the pit of her stomach start to tighten. Her breath was coming quicker and shorter as his long, slender fingers reached the sweet spot her own barely grazed, causing her to need to grow.

She wouldn't deny that she was nervous and scared of doing this. She was well aware that Shu could use his other arm and rip her throat out. But still, she continued to manipulate his hand via the muscles and tendons in his arm, getting a thrill from the power she now felt as she started to peak. Her mind was hazy, as it recalled Kagome needed something more to climax. One thing she was sure of was that she would this time, and he would not stop her. Knowing he didn't like being dominated or having pain inflicted after talking with his younger brother, Reiji, Kagome pressed her head back into his shoulder and pinning it to the headboard as she tilted her head to the side, baring her neck to him in submission. Her eyes were catching his as he just stared down at her.

Then let a mocking smile come to her lips as she glared at him in triumph. She was telling him that she just bested him. All while gradually adding pressure to where she was pressing her head into his shoulder. So, the moment she felt his body tense before he struck. Biting viciously into her shoulder, Kagome thrust his hand hard into her core. The pain from his bite pushed her body into yielding as she felt her climax hit hard and fast. The euphoric feeling from the mixing of her release with the pain from his bite as he drank from her. It left her feeling like she was floating as the slight spasms of her body slowed and stopped.

When she felt Shu release her shoulder, licking it to seal the bite mark, Kagome moved his arm, sliding his fingers from her before setting it back to her side. Then with a bit of effort, she started to move herself to the edge of the bed.

"Where are you going."

It was a statement, not a question. Making her body pause before Kagome's head swiveled to look back at him.

"To get a washcloth to clean your hand and myself."

When he made no reply to her, Kagome turned and started to move. Only to find that she was unable to. Once more, she looked over her shoulder at him. Seeing he was sitting up and using his other hand to hold onto her ankle while smiling nefariously before she was roughly pulled back towards him.

"No. You will clean my hand now, not after it is dry and sticky."

Feeling confused, Kagome stared at him, unsure of what he meant. Which was solved a second later as he thrust the hand she had been offered into her mouth. He was giving her a taste of herself and pulling back, trying to get away from him. Kagome saw the lurid look in his eyes, knowing she would not be able to get out of this.

"Well, clean up your mess, Kagome. Like a good girl."

The way his voice sounded was wicked and sent a shiver up her spine. She wanted to protest at how opprobrious this was to her. But this wasn't the time to rebel. Instead, she did what he wanted. Her tongue was running over the two digits he had shoved in her mouth. Cleaning them thoroughly, because she was sure he would make her do it again if she didn't. She was fighting the burning sensation in her eyes as tears formed but never fell.

Once she had finished, Kagome drew herself back, unable and unwilling to look at him. She just wanted to curl up in a small ball and wallow in her sense of degradation. So, when she was pushed to the bed and pulled against his chest, she had no clue what to do. Deciding that she had done more than enough tonight, Kagome shut her eyes and did her best to go asleep. The arm wrapped around her waist, leaving her feeling like the bars of a prison cell she would not be able to break free.

The Fourth Movement: Festivamente - Machinate

Shu was doing what he did best, lazing around on the living room couch — enjoying the quiet solitude being afforded him at the current moment while listening to his favorite Oratorio Opera. His mind was ruminating over the last five and a half months that had been both wondrous and vexing in one way or another, more-so where it concerned a particular raven-haired woman. Said, woman, that while most times was clueless, annoying and excessively naive, could become (as he had learned) a sultry little vixen given the right setting.

The smile he knew was twitching at the corners of his lips as he recalled the last time, just over two weeks ago now. He saw a side of Kagome that was truly breathtaking. Threw his instincts into overdrive, he had him questioning his sanity. The sight of her as she peaked, falling over that edge to her orgasm. The build-up was like a slow crescendo, the tempo a mix of her heart beating in time to her movements through the night had started like it has every other time, her coming to his room and asking the same damn thing.

Not the words he wanted to hear, causing his lackadaisical mood to become objectionable and mean-spirited. He hadn't even looked at Kagome as he shrugged his shoulder. Neither confirming he would or denying her what she was asking. Five months of the same question, and still, she was dense. Not that it was unusual, she was obstinate to an extreme when provoked. So, with his hands still laying across his stomach, he felt the bed dip as she crawled onto it.

When she reached him, going still by his side and got no reaction from him, he heard her soft huff of agitation at his lack of response. His nose was picking up the scent of her heat, mild anger, and the sweet tang of her arousal. Still, he didn't react to her, being unreasonable intentionally, a part of him wanting to see what she would do. Which didn't take long, when he felt her small, delicate hand pick up his arm that was next to her and moved it to the bed, turning it palm up. In a sudden fit of spitefulness, Shu had pushed it back to his stomach but left it to palm upwards.

Her soft gasp of shock and outrage made him crack his eyes open to look at her, seeing her face going pale and dark at the same time. Her emotions flashing in her dark blue eyes as she bawled her hands into a fist and planted them on her hips as she looked at him. She was earning her a snort from him. The smile that slowly snaked its way across her lips told him she was not going to back down, that his mood wasn't going to deter her.

Accepting her challenge, he had opened his eyes. He watched as she removed her robe, leaving her pale flesh to glow luminescent in the sliver of moonlight that peeked through his heavy curtains before she knelt over him and lifted one arm at a time. Then slowly tugging his shirt up his abdomen to rest just at the base of his sternum, making sure to carefully put his arms back the way he had had them. The smile on her lips, turning mischievous as she bared her teeth at him, her fingers running up his arms, pressing on the muscles, forcing his fingers to flex and extend at her whim.

The moment she removed her hands, placing them on his shirt covered chest, right over where his heart was, she tossed her leg over his hips and straddled him — evenly distributing her weight onto her knees to hold her up. He wouldn't ever admit it aloud, but he had wanted to pin her to the bed and ravish her. Instead, Shu just did what he did best, look apathetic, and waited for what she was about to do.

Her body lowered to rest over his hand, the moist heat of her sex soon filled his empty hand as the damp curls covering her womanhood brushed against his finger enticingly. And from the look on her face, he knew she was well aware of what she was doing, only making him want to dominate her more. But, of course, his curiosity wanted to be satiated in seeing how far she was willing to go to take the edge off.

When she put her hands back on his one arm, pressing into the muscles until Kagome got his hand to do what she wanted, he about choked when she slammed her body down as not one, not two, but three of his fingers were shoved into her. Feeling her silken inner walls clamp down around them, squeezing them as if trying to pull his fingers deeper. The look on her face as her mouth dropped open, eyes fluttering till they were closed as her hips began to rock, setting a slow but steady rhythm that was insane. He could feel when his middle finger brushed across that thin membrane that marked her as a virgin.

It had caused him to go; still, his eyes had gone wide at hearing her cry his name. He was sure she was unaware of it as he pulled her wrist from his mouth, closing it with a gentle yet straightforward flick of his tongue. That dark, primal part of him was happy at hearing her call his name, leaving him to feel calm inside, while outside, he felt his body respond to her only became more painful. Then in the next instant, she was lifting herself from his hand, legs very shaky as she shifted her body off his and bent at her waist, pink tongue slipping out between very red lips to lick at his hand and stomach, both of which were thoroughly coated from her.

As he stared at her, he noted that the light that normally warmed her eyes and made them flash was gone, leaving almost vacant voids behind. It disturbed him; then again, he never really looked at her eyes after she was finished, just enjoying the smell of her humiliation as it threaded through her scent. This was almost painful for him since he loved to see her defiance flashing in those cerulean depths. But the fact there was nothing there, indicating that she was shutting herself off, a clear indication of some pain.

What he did next shocked even him, he had stopped her, telling her to get a washcloth to clean both of them, which she had compiled after looking highly confused and almost fearful. After she had finished, he had sent her to her room to sleep, needing to seek his release and fucking think about everything.

The sound of laughter, her laughter, pulled him from his thoughts, just as she ran through the living room. She was pulling Laito, as his brother held his fedora on his head and looked bemused by what she was doing. The glance he shot at Shu had Shu quirking an eyebrow before they were out of sight, leaving him wondering what just happened. He had no fear of his siblings, or the Mukami's trying to do anything with Kagome, having made it very clear to them that she was his property and would seek retribution via the death of the said person.

A deep chuckle resounded and drew his attention to the rest of his brothers and the said visiting people. Shu let his gaze landed on his old childhood friend, who was leering at him while chuckling. A sense of being left out of something settled on him as Yuma spoke up.

"Oh, no, trust me, Reiji. Laito is the perfect person to help Kagome with the whole Adam and Eve thing. His knowledge is impeccable."

The look he got as those words left Yuma's mouth had him sitting up, only to flinch as very loud, offensive, the music suddenly blared from the study. Seeing the others flinch as well didn't help as he turned to look over his shoulder to the room that held Kagome and Laito.

In the months following that first night she had gone to ask Shu for help, Kagome had felt a small bond forming. To her, it was progressing in the right way, though she didn't hold out too much hope of the whole situation getting more manageable for her. These men were living in this house, Yui as well now, we're demons. They craved violence, blood, and the need to be dominant. But Shu was an enigma to her, a demon that was excessively lazy, to the point if he wanted to sleep all the time, he would fall over in the hallway and do so — not even caring if he was impeding someone, as long as he was comfortable and able to sleep.

Though two weeks ago, he had gotten moody with her. If she had to put a word to it, she would call him recalcitrant, just like a little child that got told no to get what he wanted. So, when he just shrugged and ignored her, she took it as he was rechallenging her. And she didn't want to disappoint! She made herself climb onto the bed and move his body the way she wanted it, only for him to be petulant and push it back to the way it was, though leaving his hand the way she had faced it.

It sparked something dark in her. Quickly she had thought out several scenarios she could use to her advantage before deciding what she was going to do. So, after making sure Shu's shirt was out of the way, Kagome had shed her robe and straddled the arrogant bastard. The look on his face as his eyes opened, it was so worth it, had her ego swelling by leaps and bounds, as she slammed her body down onto those fingers. She was pushing them deeper than they'd ever been in her sex. And, oh, how glorifying it was to feel that full before she started to rock her hips in time to the faint strands of classical music she heard from his earbuds.

Hell, she had even gone and been submissive, just a little bit, by offering her wrist to him. Which he took without showing any signs of hesitancy, the pain from the bite exploding in bright colors that were her pure ecstasy for her as she climaxed violently. The feeling of her body practically floating as she rode it out, aware of each little spasm from inside her. Before she removed her person, so she was no longer straddling Shu, ready to clean him like he always made her do. Only to be stopped and told to get a washcloth this time. It had been a shock, but she had complied with what she was told. Afterward, she was sent back to her room, leaving a cold pool of dread in the pit of her stomach that she didn't understand.

Now it was two weeks later; her nerves were starting to fray at the edges each time she was near him. He had closed himself off from her. It hurt, and she knew very well why. But that didn't matter since she felt she was becoming a hindrance and annoying him every month. So, after much thought, as she tried to come up with an idea, sitting there in the den with everyone but Shu, the Mukami's included. The latter was curled around her mate, Azusa, snuggling into his bandaged arms that were wrapped around her.

They were still discussing the Adam and Eve project that their father had initiated to create a new species. Which she knew for a fact was impossible — thinking about a Vampire, who claimed to be the Demon King, playing God by trying to reenact the book of Genesis in the Garden of Eden. It was at that point, Kagome went very still, feeling her eyes widen, and she grinned and looked around at each person until her eyes settled on one person in particular.

Adam and Eve, it was the answer she needed as heat flooded her face as she sprang up quickly, causing everyone else to go quiet and look at her. When green eyes locked onto her own blue eyes, she let an impish smile curved her lips as she tilted her head to the side, watching him look confused before Kagome vaulted easily over the small coffee table, landing on the balls of her feet as she leaned forward slamming her hands on either side of his head.

"Jesus fucking Christ, Kagome. What the hell got up your skirt?"

At his reaction, she laughed and leaned her face in close to his until her nose bumped his. Making sure she had Laitos undivided attention as she spoke to him.

"Adam and Eve! It is the answer, and you're just the person I need to help me research it."

With that said, Kagome righted herself, grabbing his hands, which had been resting on his knees as he sat on the couch, pulling them as she started to backpedal. Her excitement was bubbling over as she laughed as she saw understanding flashing in those cat-like, jade color eyes, before he was up, allowing her to pull him from the room behind her. His laughter mixing with hers, as she heard Reiji ask just how Laito would be the one to help her research, Adam and Eve and serving to make her laugh louder as they reached the living room and rushed through it.

The moment they were in the study, Kagome shut the door once they were in, swiftly locking it with a click. Drawing a questioning look from Laito, though he still looked highly amused by what she was doing.

"So, Little Birdie wanna explain this to me before I help you. And what do I get out of this?"

Letting out a rumbling chuckle as she held up a finger and walked around him to the desk, which held the only laptop (That she knew of) in the whole damned mansion. There next to it was the iPod stand that still held her own pale blue iPod. Tapping it to wake it up, she scrolled through her songs until she found the one she wanted. Looking to Laito, who was now standing behind her, she motioned for him to sit at the desk and tapped the song to play it, setting it on repeat. Soon the loud reverberating beat bounced off the book-lined walls as In This Moment - Blood started to play, getting a chuckle of her companion.

"I want you to log into your account and help me navigate the damned site. I have never...looked... at a site like that. And I know you to be quite the perverted fellow just from talking to you... and the string of blood bags as you all call them leaving your room with no memory."

The wide-eyed look of shock he gave her as he didn't deny what she said told Kagome that he was shocked she was aware of the latter. Smirking at him, she waved her hands for him to do as she asked.

"Uh, no. You aren't completely honest."

Flushing darkly as she fidgeted for a second or two or maybe twenty before sighing. She knew that if she wanted his help, she'd have to give it all up. She was nodding her head slowly as she waited for the song to play through the second time, before speaking.

"I am tired of being an inconvenience or hindrance to Shu. So, I was thinking that... after being inspired just now... that getting something to help me... you know... while I am going through that phase... And I will pick a song and dance to it, just for you."

It took her a lot to get that all out, but she felt a bit lighter when she did. Her eyes never leaving Laito's face, which was always expressive, unless he put on his mask. It showed his shock and surprised at what she just said, before looking angry. It was no secret that all of the vampires adored her, though they dared not try to do anything for fear of Shu's wrath. And when she was sad because of something Shu had done, they'd get defensive over her and tried to cheer her up, in their own fucked up way.

The small shake of his head as he removed his Fedora and placed it on her head, had Kagome looking at him. Next thing she knew, Laito had her in his lap as he logged into his account. Bringing up the internet browser, before pulling down his bookmarked sites, which it shouldn't have been a surprise that the site was favorited, and opened the page.

"Deal on the dance. So, are you looking for aides or full out toys. There is a difference, you know. Aides just help give you that little push over the edge through stimulation, while full toys give extra pleasure, have a few different settings, and are meant to fill you up... If I had to recommend anything... I would say aides as your a virgin."

Listening to what he said, she thought about it until he made his last comment — earning a pinch to his arm from her as Kagome felt her face heat up — rolling her eyes as she processed what he had said, before mumbling that aide were the best bet. To which she felt his body relax beneath her, leaving her wondering why he felt relief at her choice.

From there, the next thirty minutes passed swiftly as he navigated the website, popping up multiple browser windows, explaining the various functions that each thing did, how they'd stimulate her and what his recommendations were. Eventually, she settled on two things, one of which could be brought throughout the house with her, so if the heat got too unbearable, she could hide in an empty room or closet to take care of it. The very idea sent a dark thrill through her, even though she knew that they all had a very keen sense of smell. The only safe place in the house for her was her room; none of them would ever dare go there. And if they did, Shu would lose his shit over it.

So, when they finished, Laito saying he would purchase this in her name Kagome felt as if her head was going to explode at his generosity, before looking at him learily. The feigned look of hurt on his face was ruined by his playboy smirk that was always present. His only reply was that he was getting a private dance from her after she asked him for his help. That it was the least he could do. Nodding her head, she slipped from his lap, realizing at that moment that she was covered in his scent.

Whipping around to look at him, she saw how smug he looked, already knowing what she just realized. Letting out a growl, Kagome picked up her iPod and flipped through the songs when the perfect song popped out at her. Flashing him a grin that showcased all of her teeth as she hit the song, setting the iPod back on the cradle as the low beat started.

The look on his face as he realized what song she had picked before he leaned back, placing his hands behind his head and laughed. Winking saucily at him, Kagome began to sway her hips in time to the music, never removing her eyes from him. One hand coming up to hold his fedora on her head as she began to dance the way that Brittany did in her song Womanizer, mouthing the lyrics along with the song and enjoying the fact that she was leaving Laito's jaw slack, eyes bugging out of his head as he sat riveted in the seat.

Once the song finished, Kagome grasped the brim of his fedora and flung it at him like a Frisbee, spinning and walking to the door as he caught it. Laughter bubbled up from deep within her chest as she unlocked the door, opening and stepping out. Just as the next song on that particular list began to play. Still, in a good mood, her eyes landed on everyone else, who had moved into the living room and were staring at her as they stood just outside the door with a mix of curiosity and questioning looks.

Rolling her eyes as she threw her hands up and sang along with the song, Laitos laughter coming from behind her as she danced her way to the staircase as 'Buttons by The Pussycat Dolls' played in the background. Earning a low whistle or two from a few of the boys and a strangled sound that she knew came from Reiji as she continued up the stairs and to her room.

The Fifth Movement: Crescendo; Issimo, Irato - Finale

Shu stopped in mid-step, having realized that he was pacing again, and it annoyed him. He was running his hands through his damp hair, having taken a hot shower in hopes of getting himself to relax. He was getting agitated, not a good thing. His earbuds hanging down the front of his bare chest as his classical music played softly in the silent room. It had been two and a half months since that night since Kagome had last come to him.

Over the passing days, it had affected him greatly, in many ways. The most prominent being the fact that his temper was off the charts, to the point that his aura flared around him dangerously. More-so when anyone was near Kagome, talking or even joking with her, leaving the air in whichever room heavy and strained. Meals had become a chore that they all attended, Mukami's included since they moved in due to Yui refusing to leave the mansion after mating Azusa.

Hell, he had been sent home from school by Reiji a few times due to attacking a few of the other students (vampires) at their school when they had entered his sanctuary, the music room. Not that that helped matters as it put him in the same place as Kagome. Who had just last week started to avoid him outside his bedroom. He could smell the unease on her whenever she was near her, making him feel a myriad of things that he was not going to examine at all. But the rejection only furthered to sour his mood.

Lifting his head, he looked at the bathroom door, the door that led to the joining bathroom they shared. It had been quiet in there for a few hours, the sun already rising outside. Narrowing his Ice blue eyes, Shu teleported from where he stood to stand next to Kagomes bed, seeing her sleeping peacefully on her back, covers pulled up under her chin.

Curling his lips into a fanged snarl, he thrust his hand out, grasping the dark red blanket and pulled it from her and pausing as he looked down at her as she startled awake, only to glare up at him from her spot on the bed. He knew each piece of clothing she owned since he had been with her when she had gotten them. The only time she had been out of the mansion since arrive ten and a half months ago. So, the shiny pale blue spaghetti-strapped nightgown that clung to her curvy but lithe form had him wondering where it came from, or rather who.

As she tried to sit up, Shu pushed her roughly back onto the mattress, his body straddling hers to keep it pinned there. His hands running down from her shoulders over her breast to her hips, then settling on her thighs were the silk fabric ended. Curling his fingers into the supple flesh, drawing a muffled cry from her sealed lips, he growled at her. Watching as her body stiffened and the smell of her unease flooded the air.

"Where did this come from?"

The slight look of guilt in her eyes told her it was from one of the others that lived in the house, making him grip her thighs harder, feeling the cloth shift until his fingers were on nothing but bare flesh — telling him that the sides had slits that ran up her body.

"Who!?"

The sight of her shaking under him as she whimpered at the force he was using on her person, as her scent went from unease to outright fear.

"Yuma...he...gave it...to me, Shu..."

Rage flooded his body as he leaned over her until his chest brushed against hers. Knowing his eyes were glowing a deep vermillion as they reflected in her wide sapphire colored eyes. He could more or less forgive anyone else in the house but that man. Due to Reiji, there was a massive misunderstanding between Yuma and him, of which Yuma refused to listen. Hell, since moving in Yuma had taken to taunting him, using Kagome. Saying he was not even a man if he could not do what he had to tame the girl. That such a bountiful feast was wasted on Shu as he wasn't even man enough to taste the sweet fruit that she was.

And now she, who belonged to him, was wearing a rather revealing piece of lingerie by that man. He was not amused even as his eyes took in the sweetheart neckline that showed her breast off, how the silk clung to her hips appealingly and the fact the damn thing had slits that went all the way to said hips, as the bottom nothing more than a single layer of sheer lace lay across her thighs just above her knees. It was enough to want to tempt any man into her bed, with the need to ravish her.

But he wasn't about to do that, no, he wanted answers and one fucking way or another he would get them from her, even if he had to hurt her irrevocably.

"Why did he get you something like this... Kagome."

Her eyes never left his as he saw her swallow a few times, mouthing opening and closing as she tried to speak.

"Tell me!"

His voice barely recognizable as that familiar feeling of being taken over by the more baser, primal side of his mind swept through him.

"I dunno.. I really don't. But I think it had to do... with the ... conversation we had a few days before I received it."

He paused and pulled away from her, not smelling any lie on her as he flexed his fingers into her flesh, feeling it give with small pops as the scent of her blood filled the air.

"What was it about..."

"He asked me what I liked about you..."

The fact she responded instantly while tilting her head to the side, baring her neck to him in submission. He couldn't help the rumble in his chest that said he was pleased by that action. But her words caught his attention.

"Well, what did you say... that would earn you this... gift...Kagome."

"I said the color of your eyes."

The coppery tang of her blood was flooding his senses as he fought with himself to not just bite her. Though the fact she liked the color of his eyes was a bit of a system shock that helped him keep control. But that didn't give him answers to why she had stopped coming to his room during her heat for his help.

"Really. Whatever. Why haven't you come to me for the last two months? Do you suddenly detest touching me?"

The way her head jerked so she was not just staring but glaring angrily at him. Her anger washing through overriding the smell of her blood as her eyes glistened in the dark of the room with tears, tears he could smell, unshed.

"No! I felt I was being inconsiderate and inconveniencing you."

The fact she was so honest and that she had practically yelled at him further shocked him. Her words sinking in as his mind supplied how the last time she had come to had ended, he realized how she would stupidly jump to that conclusion — shaking his head as he sat up, relaxing his fingers on her thighs. The small sigh of relief from her lips at that action wasn't missed either.

"So, you thought you were rude, essentially. How have you been dealing with the heat Kagome? Because I know for a fact you're still a virgin, that none of my brothers or the Mukami's scents have been on you. Yet you haven't been hiding in the room for the last three days as you did before coming to visit me."

The dark flush that he swore was glowing in the lack of light in the room was telling. Wanting more, he waited as Kagome's eyes finally flicked away from his gaze as he let it bore into her. Following where it went, he saw her nightstand that only had one drawer built in to it — quirking his eyebrow as he bent toward it, as Kagome suddenly began to struggle underneath him, whimpering softly as if to plead for him not to look.

Shooting a hard glare at her made Kagome stop as she turned her head completely away from him. He could smell the thin thread of her embarrassment mixing with the fear and her blood. Slowly he opened the drawer, seeing a small black box in the bottom of the unstained pine-wood drawer. Pulling it out, hearing it rattle a bit as he set it on Kagome's stomach, while she still refused to look at him.

Purposely he took his time in opening first the heart-shaped latch that had A&E engraved in it before lifting the lid. What greeted him was not what he had expected as a soft huff came from underneath him. Lifting two objects of the three objects out of the box with one hand, he moved the box to the floor. His mind was going in a few different directions, before recalling that she had taken his younger and very perverted brother into the study while the rest of the group had sat in the living room with him as Reiji complained about Laito being the perfect choice for explaining Adam and Eve to Kagome.

It hit him full force, because of how she felt afterward, she sought out Laito to help with that particular website. How she even knew about such a sex site he didn't want to know. As he felt his anger rear its head again at the fact she would rather have the toys than him.

Using his empty hand, Shu grabbed her face and jerked it, so she was looking at him. Squeezing hard to her jaw as he waved them in front of her, causing her flesh to warm further under his cold fingers. The soft hiss he got from her had him smirking down at her, in full control of this whole situation.

"So, this is your replacement for me. It displeases me that you asked my brother to help you get these. I could have helped you, as I am very familiar with that site, as well."

The small shiver that ran through her as he spoke, while her eyes flashed with what he could only describe as a shock as she looked at him.

"I am curious, though, how you were able to hide this from me. You do make quite the amusing range of sounds. Show me."

The sight of her swallowing as she tried to shake her head no at him. The defiance she was showing had him narrowing his eyes to slits, as his eyes glowed brighter, still being reflected by her cobalt colored eyes. Hissing at this as he moved his body to sit on the edge of the bed by her, moving the hand on her face down to her throat where he squeezes it, causing the pulse he felt to skip.

"This is not a request, you will show me."

A soft whimper came from her as she closed her eyes. She was rolling her body, so she was lying on her stomach. Having removed his hand from her throat as she turned, Shu watched as she pushed herself up on her knees and hands, before yanking the secondary pillow on the bed and stacking it on her pillow. He couldn't help but appreciate the view she was giving him as she dropped her face into the pillow, showing him how she masked any sound she made. But it was the sight of her in such a submissive position had him dragging his eyes down her body, seeing that the silk nightgown had climbed up and over her pale, well-rounded ass to pool about her mid-back, just above her waist.

"You prefer these to me. So how high can you get the vibration before your body shatters, Kagome?"

The sight of her back muscles tensing and relaxing as he continued his ministrations of the toy while asking her reminded him of a cat or dog when their back muscles moved under their skin. It was intriguing seeing her body do the same thing in this position. When she didn't answer him, he smacked her ass again, harder this time. Her head jerking up from the pillow as the air seemed to rush from her lips.

"Three...I get to three, Shu."

The slight wave to her voice as she looked at him, eyes slightly glazed as she frowned when her hips rocked against the toy, apparently without her permission. Her eyes were showing betrayal as she glared at her hips as they did it again as he pressed the rounded end a bit harder to the small bundle of nerves at the apex of her womanhood. Finally, she just buried her face back into the pillow, which seemed to signal something in Shu as he sheathed the toy in her, watching as her body clenched around the invader and shudder.

"Let's see if you can last."

Quickly he pressed the control on the vibrator to turn it on before turning it up to start at three, his other hand going to the small controller for the bullet he had planted in her ass and rotating the dial to three as well. The effect on her was instant as she practically screamed into the pillow, hips wiggling at him as she tried to get away from it. She was making him chuckle darkly and wrap both hands around Kagome's waist and flipped her onto her back.

Her body bucking up at him as she pressed her lips into a thin line and squeezed her eyes shut. Already her face was screwed up in pleasure as she tried to breathe deeply through her nose. This was her punishment, his revenge on her denying him and choosing toys over him. By relying on his brother to help her take the edge off her need during this time, when her body was more susceptible to pleasure. The pleasure he should be the only person to give it to her.

Kagome had been shocked and pissed when her covers were forcefully removed from her, only to see Shu, a very angry Shu, staring down at her. It had made her heart pound as it felt like said organ tried to crawl from her body, making her uneasy. From there it had spiraled downwards as he got more irate with her nightgown, even after she had explained it to him, which had confused her more.

The way he jumped from that topic to the next had left her reeling mentally, leaving her unprepared — the damn curse making her answer his questions. Even making her move to show him how she muffled her own sounds as they brought her body gratification, but not giving the feeling of completion with the use of the toys he now held in her hand. To him touching a part of her body that no one had ever touched before, making her more acutely aware of the position she was in before her ass was smacked.

Unexpectedly that action had only served to make her titillated as small electrical shocks coursed up her spine and into the back of her head. Before his finger invaded, a spot she had been raised was not to be touched like that, mortifying her as it brought a surprising amount of pleasure to her body while being slightly painful as he thrust his digit in and out of it at a slow pace for a few minutes.

Her mind was starting to become hazy with the mix of emotions that she was feeling, no, that he was pulling from some hidden place in her. This should be debasing her, making her want to crawl into a hole and cry at how wrong it was. Instead, her body, after adjusting to it, was enjoying it if the fact that her inner thighs felt as if a small waterfall had formed.

When he pulled his finger from her, only to feel a cold metal object she guessed was the bullet, her carry around toy rubbed between her swollen nether lips, Kagome felt her core clench. Though she froze the moment, Shu dragged it to her ass and shoved it in her. The pain had her tears ready to fall, while she was glad her face in the pillow. After a few seconds, the pain eased, and her body started to relax. She had read a few things about anal play using the bullet but didn't dare to try it herself. Now she didn't get a choice.

Her mind trying to keep up with what was happening as she felt the cool silicone of the other vibrator being slipped back and forth between her legs. Biting the pillow so she wouldn't moan, as she barely registered that Shu was talking to her until he smacked her ass harder, resulting in her jumping up. Shu was forcing the reply from her lips as she tried to replace the air that just escaped her lungs.

Kagome glared at her hips as they moved to rock against the toy unbidden by her, betraying her as her body wanted more of what he was offering before she felt him press the toy harder over her clit. When he sheathed her, the way her body clamped down on it as if it were a godsend, she mentally cried at his words. Somehow she knew this was payback as she felt him turn the damn things on at the same time, and from the way it jolted her body to move forward as if to get away, it was already on three.

The ripple effect, as both of the vibrators in her, separated by a thin layer of flesh, was almost too much. She let a scream out into the pillow just as her body was flipped over, giving her a good look at the familiar nefarious smile on Shu's face as his icy blue eyes turned red and blazed brightly with his anger and (she wasn't completely sure which one) desire or lust, probably the latter as his he easily pinned her to the bed with one arm at her waist, the other still between her legs, next to his kneeling body.

Trying her best, Kagome kept taking deep breaths in and out through her nose to not spasm into oblivion. And ironically, to her, it was helping, though it was apparently displeasing Shu. The look he was giving her was borderline hedonistic as his garnet-colored eyes shone with clear sadism. Then she felt her body jump again just as it got used to the vibrations because the dick turned both up to the next level.

Feeling her lips part as she groaned and writhed under her arm, Kagome wanted so badly to get control of her body to kick him in that now smug looking face of his. He was enjoying himself way too much, as she felt his ice-cold fingers stroke across her heated flesh in a feather-like touch. He was forcing another groan, louder than the first, to claw its way from the back of her throat.

"Uh-huh! Kagome, you need to be quiet. You may talk softly, but no loud obscene noises."

She went stiff for a second as his command settled over her, rolling her eyes in an are-you-serious kind of way as her lips pressed together courtesy of the curse. She really wanted to kick him and hard in his fucking face. Currently, she would have to ride out the waves of pleasure her body was being forced to withstand for his amusement.

Still, she breathed through her nose, trying to keep her body calm, though it wasn't working too well. Her body kept bucking and spasming with the building need of yet another orgasm. And now she was supposed to be quite? Thrusting a hand up to her head Kagome grabbed one of the pillows and placed it over her face just as she lost control again. She was shoving the pillow over her mouth as she moaned how she felt clearly into the cotton pillow. Just to have it jerked away, quickly followed by the other pillow that had been under her head.

The way he mockingly wiggled his finger in admonishment had Kagome growling and sighing in exasperation at him. It was comical seeing him act like this when he was so laid back, unconcerned and uncaring of what happened around him. Hell, she would bet if Armageddon happened he'd try to find a way to sleep through it, as long as it didn't overpower his classical music.

Her eyes went to his throat where his odd choker was that held his MP3 player, before traveling down the cords of the earbuds, which she realized were resting against a well-muscled chest, that was just a bit paler than his face and hands. Mouth going dry as Kagome stared blatantly at those muscles when they rippled when he moved, never having seen him without a shirt on in the time she had been there. The urge to sit up and lick his chest danced in the back of her mind as her head was suddenly lifted to look into a pair of sanguine eyes that were laughing silently at her.

"My eyes are up here, no need to be rude. I guess I need to increase them again."

His voice was dripping with devilry that made her go still in shock, mild fear, and anticipation. Unable to look away as her peripheral vision caught his hand traveling down her body, not touching it, only to have her body jerk once more as he turned up the vibration. She was biting her lip till she tasted blood and tossing her head, practically choking on her moan as she felt like her body was coming apart at the seams. The pleasure was now borderline pain, leaving her body to cry out as that coil in the pit of her stomach snapped.

Something in her body felt broken, and oddly it gave her the willpower to lift her arms, cupping Shu's face and pull it down to her face as she lifted it. She was smashing her lips to his in a bruising kiss as she moaned against his mouth while riding the wave that coursing through her body. She was not caring that his arm was still holding her down at the hips, painfully. No, she needed contact with him. Her hand was sliding up to tangle in his soft platinum locks in an attempt to hold him in place as he quickly pulled back from her, giving her a look that said she did something wrong.

"You did not have permission to do that."

The way his voice dropped a few octaves as he rebuked her, Kagome didn't care, her hands still tangled in his hair, nails lightly scraping across his scalp and affecting him from how his eyes were slowly closing. Almost as if he was enjoying it. Kagome felt powerful as she inhaled deeply, her fingers continuing their massage on his scalp, only to squeak when both her wrist was snagged in his powerful grip and placed above her head, his face inches from hers as their noses brushed together.

"You will cease this and know your place. Are you aware of the danger you are putting yourself in?"

She blinked as her heart slowed in her chest as she looked into his eyes, not feeling the fear she knew she should be feeling.

"Yes."

The slow blink of his eyes as he just continued to look at her, she sucked her bottom lip in, as she swallowed another moan, making it sound like she was gargling water. He didn't move as he kept her pinned like that, as her body started to register more pain instead of pleasure. That made her become irked and angry as she spoke, knowing she was out of turn with him dominating her, and would regret it later as the words spilled from her lips.

"I don't care either. Now, if you would quit being a giant vampiric pussy and just fuck my brains out, we can both be happy, you egotistical, chauvinistic, sadistic bastard."

Again he blinked slowly at her before baring his fangs at her and withdrawing from her person. The air that rushed to fill the space where his body had just occupied was freezing and made her shudder. Never taking her eyes off Shu as he sat back just looking at her face blank and completely unreadable. It happened in a matter of seconds, her back arching up off the bed as both the vibrator and bullet were ripped from her body, sending pain searing up along her spine as she felt Shu shove three fingers into her over-sensitive core as he descended on her, capturing her mouth in a kiss that stole the breath from her lungs.

As she came back to herself, Kagome realized at some point she had opened her mouth, his tongue now swirling around her as she tried to match him. Only to feel pain unlike anything else burst through her body as it was stretched from the inside out and her hymen broken. A soft cry came from her as she closed her eyes as he pulled out, snapping his hips to drive back into her relentlessly. Setting a pace, Kagome knew she had no hope of matching or keeping up with his demonic speed and strength.

As the pain faded away, Kagome felt liquid heat spread through her body, setting it alight with a desire that had her moaning loudly and wantonly into his mouth, earning her a sharp nip to her bottom lip, giving her a taste of her blood — exciting her as she did her best to roll her hips to meet a few of his thrust as her legs were wrapped around his waist, ankles locking them in place.

Kagome was barely aware of the fact that his hands had pushed the straps of the nightgown from her shoulders as he palmed her breast roughly, occasionally pinching her hardened nipples, forcing her to arch her back off the bed. If this is what it felt like to be taken to heaven and hell at the same time, Kagome wondered why she had waited so long. Her body was an instrument, and he was playing it like he was born to do so.

Soon enough, she felt the tingling start at the base of her spine as the coil in her stomach tightened again. The pressure was feeling as if it would tear her in half at her navel. More mewls coming from her throat as it felt raw, Shu never stopping, his pace like a man possessed. Her mind began to slip as she squirmed under him, her hands curling to grab as she felt her nails bite into the flesh of his hands.

The action caused him to break the kiss and snarl down at her, his eyes flashing dangerously with what she knew to be a demon's bloodlust, though this seemed different than what she had experienced in the past. This was baser as if something primal in Shu had awakened and would not be stopped. Unable to tear her gaze away as her mind told her to do, she just licked at her bottom lip.

"Please, Shu."

Not quite sure why she whispered those two words, but his head snapped down and bit her neck. The feel of his teeth piercing her soft flesh before drinking deeply of her life essence, Kagome arched her back, her body shattering around him as she felt herself coming undone. Hearing his name leave her lips over and over as if it were a mantra to keep her grounded as the haze in her mind made her delirious with self-gratification, leaving a feeling of being complete and whole.

Time slipped by after she felt his body collapse on top of her; until Kagome blinked her eyes as sunlight filtered through her curtains. Letting her eyes glance over Shu's bareback that held faint pink marks that looked like something clawed him, she saw the clock. It was two in the afternoon. Closing her eyes as she let her head rest back on the bed, as she felt Shu shift and roll to his side, dragging her with him, pinning her legs under his arms tightly wrapped around her waist, keeping her body pressed flush against his chiseled chest.

Tilting her head a bit, she saw his eyes had returned to the icy blue she liked as he smiled at her. It wasn't like the smiles he had given her last night or during their recent activities, for which her body was sore and more than likely bruised. This was gentle, affectionate, and adoring. He was making her stay still in his arms as he bent his head to nuzzle the top of her head.

They stayed like that for a while longer before Shu lifted an arm from her waist and brought it up to her face. Shu was showing her his wrist again. Feeling bold, she reached up and let her fingers brush along the markings that looked like a music score, her eyes not leaving his face. Seeing it relax further and pleased at her touch to the markings.

"What are these Kagome?"

She paused her hand as she thought about it. Her mind was rapidly shifting through everything she had read upon arriving there, before a faint memory of talking to Sesshomaru about his markings. Her mouth dropped open in shock and amazement. He had told her they appeared when he had fed from her the first time when her blood mixed with his.

"Mating marks."

The soft rumble of delight from him at her answer told her that she had answered him correctly. All the pieces of the supposedly complex puzzle that had been Shu Sakamaki fell into place. His reason for almost killing Subaru when she was going through heat, why he would get moody with her when she asked for his help, but only to take the edge off. They had been inadvertently mated since she apparated in through the bathtub. Her ignorance was her downfall, he could have forced himself on her and taken what was his, but hadn't.

The reasons he always chastised her when she did something that puts her in danger all made sense. Even having Laito help her by the toys or Yuma giving her gifts. She was unintentionally cruel to him by showing favor to other guys. But not once had he struck her, well except for those spankings last night, in anger to correct her like other demons would their mates. No, he had shown patience to an extreme level.

Her bottom lip trembled as it finally sank into her thick skull, he cared, even if he didn't tell her they were mated. But waited until she was ready. Slowly as tears started to fall from her eyes, she lowered her hand from touching the marks on his wrist to drape over his body and buried her face into his chest and silently sobbing as she felt him draw small, comforting circles on her back. She knew he was aware of why she was crying.

25 Years Later

Shu had woken when he felt his mate leave the bed to go to the bathroom. Today was the twenty-fifth anniversary of their official mating. It had been a long hard road to get there, and he would admit if asked, that he wouldn't change a damn thing. But of late, things had for the first time since those first ten, and half months, things were tense again. Straining the bond they had as she withdrew from him, closing herself off, and he thought he knew why.

He was sighing as he tossed an arm over his eyes as he heard the door open, and Kagome comes out sometime later. He was waiting for her to come back to bed, even if she wouldn't let him touch her. It was painful, but she was hurting emotionally and was refusing to allow him to help her, to comfort her. Silently he damned Azusa and Yui for their luck, but he couldn't deny them their happiness, even if it caused his mate to be unhappy.

Raising his arm and turning his head, Shu looked to where his mate was standing by the window looking out. Her body was showing how forlorn she was as she peeked through the curtains to the sunlight gardens of the mansion below. Though it was a futile endeavor, he rolled out of bed and made his way to stand behind her. Slowly Shu reached out and placed his hands on her shoulders, feeling Kagome tense under his touch, before she leaned back against him.

"Kagome?"

His voice was showing his uncertainty at her relaxing against him all of a sudden when she had been pushing him away. Looking down and seeing her looking up at him, a soft smile on her lips as her dark blue eyes danced and rained her love down on him with just a glance. Her hands raised, drawing his gaze from hers to see a small white and blue stick in her hands.

"Look, Shu, two blue lines...Happy twenty-fifth anniversary. Sorry for being such a bitch."

As he looked at the stick, her words sinking in, Shu felt his knees go weak. Letting himself slide down her body till he was on his knees, as Kagome turned, he rested his head on her belly. Opening up his senses and smelling the scent that was uniquely hers. He could just barely feel the little life inside her, as well as the change in her scent — something he would not have missed under normal circumstances.

Nuzzling at her stomach, he looked up at her through his flaxen colored bangs, feeling true happiness for the first time in months. He was finally going to be a father. His mate was pregnant after all these years of trying. And it gave him a damn good reason for her moods, the need to not be touched, and general dislike of almost everything that was put in front of her.

"This is not a dream right, Kagome? Please tell me this is happening. We tried all sorts of things, even I.V.F., to get pregnant. What was different this time?"

He couldn't help but feel like this was a dream as she ran her hand through his soft blond curls, nails scraping in the most relaxing manner against his scalp. The smile on her face as she looked at him had changed. It was the smile she reserved just for him.

"We are. And I tried an ancient folk remedy that was taught to me by a knowledgeable herbalist before I was sent to you. She had once said that sometimes demons and humans couldn't reproduce without help. I did some research on those plants and made a pill that was supposed to allow my body to accept your seed more readily. In seven months or less depending, we'll have our bundle of joy, Shu."

Going back to nuzzling her stomach as the image of her swollen with his progeny crossed his mind, Shu shuddered and started to place soft kisses over the pale blue silk of her nightgown. A similar gown to the one that she had worn the night their mating had been official. But this one was of his choosing.

"Hopefully many at that, since you're an immortal human… or rather a priestess."

The soft laugh she gave as she continued to drag her nails across his scalp, helping him to stay calm. Shu knew he couldn't have asked for a perfect mate; she was his one in a million and liked Classical Music. Said music, she could turn into a sensual thing when she wanted to be a devious deviant. Who dyed his world red with lust, passion, and love.

THE END!
