Sight Of The Blind

Chapter Eleven

She waited patiently for Kurama to come back with her answer. She was sitting on her bed waiting anxiously. It had been two weeks since she'd freaked out in Yomi's arms. She wasn't sure what had come over her, she'd became so frightened. What had scared her the most was admitting that she wanted him to touch her. In her fright she had begun to strike out at him and he'd let her. He stood there while she hit him over and over again. When she finally calmed down he grabbed her by the arm and threw her out the room. To make matters worse Kurama hadn't came back the next morning.

So she spent most of her days locked in her room avoiding him. She caught glimpses of him now and then when she ventured out. He had been right, she was feeling it now. At night when she layed in bed she longed to go in the next room just to touch him. Yet she fought against it. He seemed to be dealing it just fine, then again all the women leaving his room had to be helping.

Two days ago she'd felt not only embarrassment but complete humilitation. She'd taken a walk to get some fresh air and two of the women that she'd seen coming out of his room spotted her. They confronted her, stopping her in the hall.

"Why don't you just leave? It makes no difference that you share a bond with our lord. It must be sad to be you, you trick him to become bonded with you. Yet you still can't tempt him into your bed." The woman spoke with hatred and malice.

"Excuse me?" Kagome hadn't known what to say.

"Did you really think he would want you? A pathetic human like yourself isn't worth bedding." The woman laughed as she walked off.

Kagome felt like tearing the woman's head off. She watched them walk away and hated the fact that she felt jealousy. He'd been right all along, he'd been right to call her a stupid girl. Instead of being mature and accepting it she'd ran away. The pull was so bad she was in pain.

Now sitting in her room she could only hope that he would allow her to leave. Leave before she went crazy or killed someone. The door opened and Kurama came in.

He smiled at her, "Come, if we leave now we can be at your home before night fall. Before we leave I have to inform you that I will be with you the whole time. When you sleep as well, it is the only way we will let you go."

"You gotta be shitting me, my mom will never allow that."

"We will figure something out, come lets head out."

"Fine." She walked behind him sighing in relief. Her heart stopped when she spotted Yomi standing in the hall facing them. Her feet were suddenly glued to the spot, she couldn't move. The tugging was there, she wanted to run to him. He turned suddenly giving her his back and his dismissal. She'd felt like she'd been slapped in her face. Why should she care?

"Kagome?" Kurama watched the play of emotions cross her face. He hadn't been able to return before now due to Koenma sending him on a mission with Yusuke. He wondered what he had missed, something had to have happened. Her aura told him that she was still pure, so Yomi hadn't bedded her yet. But he didn't have to bed her to be in the way. If his eyes weren't decieving him he'd say the girl was starting to have feelings for the Makia Ruler. "Ready?"

"Yes. Take me home."

"We will get there quicker if you let me carry you. You can jump on my back if you prefer." He leaned down to give her access.

"Okay," It almost reminded her of Inuyasha, the long silver hair and ears. "Just watch your hands."

"Yes."

They arrived at her home right after sundown. She watched as he quickly changed back into his human form. Her mother came running out the door, shoving the red head aside. "My girl." Kagome hugged her mother assuring her that she was indeed fine.

"I've been so worried, escpecially when I was informed that you weren't allowed to come home again."

"Yes, I still have to return. Kurama here was nice enough to escort me, think of him as my twenty-four hour bodyguard." She waited for her mom to ask questions.

"Okay, how close does he need to be?"

"Well, for the week I am here very close. Same room close. Since I was taken last time while I was asleep even then mom."

"Oh my, I don't know about this."

Kagome counted to ten. "Mom, I'm alone with a city full of youkai. You can't protect me forever besides he's here to protect me not seduce me."

Kurama's brow lifted at that comment. He was planning on doing both while he was here. But she didn't need to know that just yet. If things went his way, he'd have her in his bed tonight. Part of him felt bad at the methods he planned on using. Then again it wasn't his fault if Yomi was foolish enough to leave the girl alone.

"I guess you are right, dinner is on the stove come inside."

Kagome followed her mother into the house, with Kurama trailing behind her. Souta greeted her at the door, throwing his arms around her. He held onto his sister for several minutes afraid to let her go. "You're back."

"Yes, you're crushing me brat."

"Sorry," He pulled back to eye the red head standing behind her. "Aren't you the guy she turned down at the arcade?"

"Yes."

"What is he doing her?" Her brother asked.

"Actually he is a youkai and he's my bodyguard." Kagome grabbed Kurama's hand leading him into the kitchen. "I'm starving."


Kagome stepped into the shower, glad to be home once more. She had to hand it to Kurama he had won her mother over in under an hour. He was extremely polite and well mannered, which was something her mother liked. She began to wash her hair letting the conditioner soak. Kurama was waiting for her in the bedroom, keeping guard.

Her hand gripped the wall as she let the wave of pain ride her, it consumed her. Not being able to take it she landed on her knees under the spray. Her hair hung limp in her face as the water streamed over her. It was getting worse, it had never been this bad. Was it because she was far away from him?

To distract herself she slammed her fist into the wall, the pain helped. Tears streamed down her face from the pain. How come it was almost killing her but he had looked unaffected?

Somewhere in the back of her mind she heard the door opening and closing. Kurama was standing in the room, she peered around the edge of the curtain. She was suddenly grateful for the fact that she chose blue curtains and not a clear one. "I don't think you should be in here."

"You might be right but I thought I heard something so I came to make sure you were okay."

"I'm fine." Hell no she wasn't but he didnt' need to know her problem.

"You are a poor liar." He smiled, knowing exactly what was bothering her. "Would you like me to help you with your problem?"

Her gasp of suprise was heard from the other side. "What?"

"Why do you think he is able to deal with it? Unlike you he is finding another means of cutting the edge off. Do you think you can stay here a full week if its that bad? I am merely offering my help, nothing will happen that you don't want." He opened the door and closed it behind him leaving his words. "I'll be waiting if you decide to accept my help."

She stared at the tub floor for several minutes. She cursed her luck and wished she'd been the one to kill Manzo. Her mind set, she stood up, she had to grow up. At this rate she'd be lucky if she didn't demand Kurama take her back to the Makai and rape Yomi on sight. Part of her said to go ahead and have him take her back and give in to it. Then again she didn't want to leave her family so soon after getting back.

Her brain screamed at her, she knew Kurama was attracted to her. If she let him touch her, he'd try to seduce her. Was that so bad really? She'd been wanting to save herself for Inuyasha, to give herself to him. It was a dream of a foolish little girl, she'd never see him again. But fate had put her in this position, she would do what was needed. Besides, it was only sex. Most girls her age have already lost their virginity and been in a sexual relationship. Why save herself for a man she'd never see again?

She finished washing herself off and climbed out the shower. Quickly drying off she wrapped the towel around her body and opened the bathroom door. Looking inside showed Kurama sitting on the bed looking out the window alone. She walked over to the bedroom door locking it without looking at him.
