Behind Closed Doors

Kagome determinedly rapped on the wood frame of the door. She had spent the last five minutes trying to decide if she should really go through with this. Finally, she knew she’d have to talk to him sooner or later. Kagome couldn’t allow him to believe he had insulted or scared her. Not hearing any noise, she tried knocking again.

When nothing stirred inside Sesshomaru’s room, Kagome slowly slid the door open. Everything was black because the suffocating night proved moonless. Kagome allowed her eyes to adjust to the dark as she slid the door shut quietly. As she breathed in the scents around her, Kagome was almost tempted to reopen the door and flee. Reinforcing her resolve, Kagome turned around towards Sesshomaru’s room.

Treading closer on feet silenced by demon blood, Kagome stood by the bed as she looked around the room. A dresser stood over in one wall and a desk sat across from it. In front of a broad window with a beautiful view was placed a small couch. The bed had a canopy above it and curtains were drawn around it so nothing could be seen. Staying as quiet as possible, Kagome pulled the curtain aside.

Sesshomaru laid there with an almost pleasant look on his face. A few stray strands of hair fell gracefully in front of him as he slept on his side. Enough of his shoulders and chest showed to give evidence that he did not have a shirt on. His lips were relaxed as if he was dreaming and his eyelids fluttered ever so gently, hiding those beautiful golden amber eyes.

Kagome allowed a small sigh to escape her lips as she sat on the edge of the bed. Even as he slept, Sesshomaru managed to send butterflies through her stomach. Her heart was doing a strange dance within her chest. Moving slowly and carefully, she brushed the few loose strands of his face and tucked them behind a pointed ear. Even though she wanted to talk to him, she couldn’t find it in her heart to wake him when he looked so peaceful. Not thinking clearly, Kagome planted a soft kiss on his pale lips.

When she pulled back, she was startled to see the eyes she so often dreamed about trained on her. Kagome couldn’t restrain her gasp of surprise as she leapt with inhuman swiftness to one side of the room. Being careful to mask her face, eyes, and her very scent, she bowed from where she had landed after jumping. Not daring to say anything, Kagome stood rock still, diligently studying the floor for the second time today. She heard a rustle of fabric and assumed Sesshomaru sat up.

“What are you doing in here,” Sesshomaru demanded. He wasn’t unkind about it and he failed to hide his confusion entirely.

“I am sorry, Lord Sesshomaru. I only wished to clear a small matter up.” Kagome kept her voice as respectful as possible through her fear. She desperately hoped her strength was enough to keep her scent disguised.

“What about demoness?” A small threat entered his voice.

“I wanted to only say that I gasped out of surprise,” Kagome said quickly. She chanced a glance at him and wished she hadn’t. He had a cross look on his face that made her inch towards the door. “I’m sorry for disturbing you, my lord.” Kagome tried to steady her breathing and control the blush that had risen on her cheeks from his intense stare. Walking quickly, Kagome reached the door in no time. Just as she went to leave, a hand on her shoulder stopped her.

A familiar tingling told her whose hand it was before she turned around and her heart leapt and struggled at the idea. When she managed to make herself turn to him, her brown eyes immediately met his golden toned orbs. She realized with a sudden astonishment that everything about him was unmasked. Sesshomaru’s eyes held a loving gaze, his scent was a tangle of admiration, devotion, and worry, and his face reflected all these emotions and more.

The shock caused Kagome to lower her own guard. Realizing this was what he wanted, Kagome allowed her disguise to fully diminish. Her face gave way to a small, shy smile that she had been hiding and her eyes displayed her uncertainty and respect for the man in front of her. Catching her breath, Kagome waited in agony for his reaction.

Catching her scent, Sesshomaru gave a throaty growl of lust, passion, and want. Pulling Kagome close, Sesshomaru lured her into an enthusiastic kiss that brought into the open how much they both wanted each other. Neither of them had to secure a hold on their demons; neither of them existed. The only things in the world were them.

Sesshomaru broke the fervent, head-spinning kiss for a minute to lift Kagome’s small frame. Carrying her bridal style, Sesshomaru gently laid her on the bed. He posed over his beautiful demoness, a slight doubt playing across his exotic features. Before he could change his mind, Kagome took the initiative to capture him in an eager, heart-stopping kiss.

A growl of satisfaction at the feel of Kagome’s hands on his chest and stomach escaped Sesshomaru’s throat and he felt the need to be bolder. His hands caressed her small waist and hips making her shudder. He gave a small gasp when her warm hands found their way to his lower back. The light touch of her pointed nails sent shivers through Sesshomaru’s own body.

Unable to contain himself any longer, Sesshomaru’s nimble fingers undid her kimono so he could gaze at her body unhindered. Staring into her lust filled eyes, he slid the material off her body and threw it to the floor. Her breasts moved in time with her sharp breaths as her luscious curves were shown to their fullest extant.

“You’re beautiful,” he growled in a seductively husky voice. Agonizingly slow, Sesshomaru delivered tickling kisses down her neck and to Kagome’s breasts. Watching her face for any signs, he gently took a budded nipple into his mouth and started to suckle it softly.

The sudden look of surprise and pleasure in her innocent eyes drove him insane. As he traded his attentions to the next nipple, he used his hand to gently rub across the all ready pampered breast. Kagome never knew something as small as her nipples could be so sensitive. Nothing could have prepared her for what Sesshomaru planned next.

Sliding his hand down her stomach in soft circles, Sesshomaru could feel Kagome shake and shiver. Allowing himself a grin of satisfaction, he slid his hand towards her hot center. It was all he could do to make himself wait. Her every gasp and look of wild-eyed pleasure sent him closer to his need and he could feel himself expanding against his sleeping pants.

Kagome gasped at his touch to her sensitive area, which Sesshomaru silenced with his lips. Working carefully to avoid cutting her with his nails, he slid a long finger into her wet passage. The tightness he felt made his member pulse. He knew it wouldn’t be long before he’d have to bury himself deep within her.

Working to a steady rhythm, Sesshomaru moved his finger in and out of her. Her moans of pleasure made him want to plunge with his probing fingers, but he labored to control himself. He watched with a tender, loving gaze as Kagome gripped the sheets in her need. Sesshomaru could easily tell that she was close to climaxing.

When he felt her passage constrict, he gave an audible groan of longing. Knowing she needed to experience this pleasure before the pain, he sped up his pace. He could feel Kagome’s hips grind in session with his hand and the throb of her orgasm came to a head. Letting out a moan of sheer bliss, she had her orgasm as Sesshomaru watched with a heated gaze.

Pulling his finger free of her slick channel, Sesshomaru grinned as Kagome tried to catch her breath. Acting on whim, he licked her juices off his slender finger, savoring her taste. A shiver slipped down his spine as his intoxication doubled now that her taste could mingle with her scent and touch. As he relished in her every aspect, he didn’t even realize when her quick fingers untied the strings holding his pants up. He certainly didn’t complain as she slipped of the confining material, allowing his throbbing member to escape.

“My turn,” she whispered in a seductive voice.

In a flash, she had flipped Sesshomaru over. Sitting on his chest, she securely pinned his arms to his side. ‘Like I’d want to move’ the lusty thought swam through his mind. He had to eat his words when Kagome grasped him and started to slowly stroke him. Sesshomaru knew he could stand this for a little bit, but what started to send him over the edge was when she leaned back and gently licked the tip.

Sesshomaru couldn’t stifle his gasps or shivers. He could feel his need to release, but he held out until he could delve himself inside her. Wrenching his arms free from between her knees, Sesshomaru claimed dominance of their position again. Poised above her, his erection sitting at the mouth of her entrance, he gave her one last worried look.

Bending close to her ear, he warned her in a regretful voice, “This is going to hurt, but it’ll be quick.”

He pulled back to see a determined gleam among the lust in her eyes. ‘My brave demoness’ he thought fondly. Sesshomaru almost didn’t know if he had the strength to do it. He wanted her and knew she wanted him just as badly, but could he really cause her the inevitable pain? Steeling himself with great effort, he rammed himself deeply into Kagome’s willing center.

The only acknowledgement of her pain was a small whimper. The sound almost killed him and Sesshomaru held her close, promising the worst was over. After only a few seconds, he felt her muscles relax slightly around his pulsing arousal. Watching her for any sign of pain, he slowly pumped in and out of her. Kagome’s low, sensual moans were enough.

Time was left behind as they got wrapped in each other. Kagome’s noises of pleasure filled the room as Sesshomaru concentrated on pleasing her. Knowing she had to be sore and fatigued by now, he slid his hand in between them to flicker a finger across her sensitive clit. When her next orgasm throbbed against his manhood, he spilled his seed deep inside of her. His hoarse groan of relief and pleasure mixed with her shrill scream of satisfaction. Spent completely, Sesshomaru laid beside her quivering body.

Kagome gave what sounded almost like a purr as she snuggled close to him. She was all ready falling fast asleep, so Sesshomaru pulled his blanket to cover them both. As he wrapped his arms around her, Kagome gave a sigh betraying her feeling of security and contentment.

Sesshomaru watched as she fell into a deep sleep. As he looked through the slots in his window, he noted that they had only two hours until sunrise. Reaching for a piece of paper and a coal portion, he wrote a note for Jaken to watch the children. Pulling the curtains back around his bed, he smiled at the demoness in his arms.

As he stroked her tangled, ebony hair, he whispered softly to her sleeping form, “I love you, Kagome.”
