Chapter 12 Unwanted attention and a broken soul

Kotaru could not believe his eyes! Having sought out Sesshomaru to get his final approval on the treaty so that he would not have to seek him out any more during his stay, he had made his way to the springs where Jaken said he might be. Instead he found her. His dreams could not compare to the beauty that was laid out before him. He let his gaze wander down her form a little disappointed that the water hid most of her charms. He was blessed with the sight of her pert young breasts as they bobbed up and down in the steamy liquid.

His mouth dry with his lust he felt the dam burst inside of him. He was to have given her one month and she still had one and one half weeks left but he couldn’t wait that long. He needed to take her and make her his own! Stripping down himself he stealthily made his way into the water, slowly moving towards her so as not to frighten her and give her the chance to flee. Pulling up short in front of her he watched her eyelids flutter as if she were dreaming. She was asleep then, he would wake her and initiate their passion. He knew she felt a little arousal when he had kissed her earlier and lost in his own lustful state he meant to make her beg for him. Grabbing both her arms he brought her up to meet his lips. When her eyes fluttered open in shock and her mouth opened to say something he cut her off by shoving his tongue inside the moist cavern. Wrapping his arms around her body he leaned her upper body back so that his hands would have room to wander as they would. Bringing one hand around to the front of her he tested the weight of her breast in its palm. Rubbing his fingertips lightly across the nipple he felt it harden and her heart rate speed up. So caught up was he that he didn’t notice her eyes had fear in them not lust, and her heart was pounding in her fright. Deepening the kiss he let the same hand wander to the thatch of blue-black curls at the apex of her thighs. Dipping one finger in to her hidden most treasure. Feeling her stiffen he broke the kiss to stare down at her intently. However his eyes were too glazed with his arousal to stop what he was doing. It was almost as if he didn’t hear the young frightened girls pleas.

“ What are you doing? Please don’t do this!” She whimpered but knew he hadn’t heard her when his mouth crushed back into hers. Panicked she brought her free arm up to grab his hair and pull. She was not successful in anything but arousing his anger at her reluctance. “ Stop struggling my dear and you will better enjoy yourself. You need not fear, as you will become my mate! I will not allow another to touch you.” When she opened her mouth to scream he stopped it when his lips crushed into hers again bruising them. His finger now thrust in and out of her hot passage as his member began to throb wanting to replace the blessed digit. Deciding it was now or never he grasped her hip in one hand while the other held her wrists. Moving her so that the tip of his manhood was at the opening of her tight sheath. Slowly sliding the head barely in he reared back and then slammed into her hard. His head went back in his ecstasy as her screams rent the air. Not giving her a moment’s reprieve from the pain he began to thrust in and out of her in a frenzy. Kagome could not believe the pain that was wracking her body as she felt him thrust over and over again. It felt as if he were tearing her apart inside. She let the hollowness fill her as the tears fell down her face.


He could feel his climax nearing, letting his fangs elongate he thrust harder preparing to mark her as his. So lost in this was he that did not see the tears that slid down her face as pain wracked through her slender form, hearing a growling her hollow brown orbs suddenly met rage filled gold ones. Kotaru was just nearing the final peak of his pleasure when he felt himself ripped from the girl in his arms. Growling he turned to face an enraged Sesshomaru. “ I see you did not heed my warnings Kotaru!” Suddenly his poison whip lashed out and caught the dragon youkai across his right eye. Screaming in fury and pain he made to charge his attacker. Sesshomaru merely side stepped him and watched as he bounced off the rock behind him. When Kotaru hit the floor unconscious it took all his will power not to vanquish him then and there. Instead he merely let his claws rake across the demon’s face then flipped him to lay open his back with his whip so as to scar him. He knew that scarring this young arrogant brat, and keeping him from what he desired would be a far better punishment than death. Calling for his guards to retrieve the lord he sent them to take him back to his own estates. Once they had collected Kotaru he turned back to the miko. She was still staring at him with that hollow gaze, he watched as her once brown eyes seemed to leak their color to the sides until her entire eyes were black. Shocked at this he made his way towards her. Lifting her to her feet from the water he shook her. “ Miko awaken! Miko do you hear me awaken!” Getting no response he brought his tail up to wrap around her waist and brought his hand to gently strike her cheeks, “ Kagome awaken!” Her eyes returned to the normal shape but the black had not left them. Cursing he picked her up and strode into her rooms. Placing her on her bed she flopped to the side like a rag doll.

The rage almost overwhelmed when the scent of her blood reached him. Glancing he saw it spattered across her thighs and pooling beneath her on the sheets. Swiftly he grabbed linens from the other room. Cleaning her off he slipped her robe around her. Still she did not stir, her eyes suddenly closed. Wanting to assure himself that she was still awake he shook her arm gently. “Kagome look at me.” Her eyes snapped open and he was mesmerized as he saw the black swirling with violet. Suddenly as if the orbs had a will of their own, the black was gone and only the dark violet remained. Sitting up she faced him and spoke in a hollow voice. “ So it has finally happened. I should have known that Inuyasha was right when he screamed my worthlessness.” He did not know how to respond. Why did she feel this? More importantly why could he not shake these overwhelming feelings of rage and sorrow when he stared at her hollow form.

Kouga had left the monk and taijiya at the village and had made his way back to his lands. He couldn’t shake the feeling that something was not right with Kagome. He felt a hollow emptiness from her now. What could have happened since he had left her with Sesshomaru? Shaking the feeling of dread he headed to his home to discuss his battle plans with his pack.


Inuyasha held Kikyo in his arms, leaning down he inhaled her smell. Something was different; he couldn’t quite summon the lust for her that he knew she wanted. His thoughts were on Kagome as he stared over Kikyo’s head. Bringing his lips to hers for a kiss she decided to ask him what she had sought him out for. “My love where is your mind at?” Shaking thoughts of Kagome out of his head he smiled down at her, “I was simply taking in the smell of you.” She knew this was a lie even as he said it and she felt her rage bubble inside. He was thinking of that bitch! “Have you spoken to Kagome and informed her of your decision?” What a joke more like her suggestion. “Yes and her answer was to run off to my Brother.” He spat the last as if it were foul on his tongue. “She will not elude me for long. My brother will let his guard down and when he does I mean to take her.” Pasting a false look of concern on her face she turned to him when she spoke again. “I used to think she was a direct reincarnation of my self but somehow now I sense something else inside her. Has she ever mentioned anything to you about housing two souls in her form?” Looking into his eyes she saw the confusion and knew that he would not be able to answer her questions. Sighing she smiled serenely at him again. “Never mind my love it was simply a thought on my part, forget I said anything. Now why don’t we finish where we left off.” Pulling his head back to hers she was glad he did not see the revulsion in her eyes as she locked him in her embrace. Soon Naraku would have to answer the questions he had aroused in her. Yes everything was going well and she would be able to destroy the bitch.

Nothing was ever what it seemed as Sesshomaru would soon find out. He had spent the entire night by the young miko’s bed. He had watched and waited. She never even moved her position by the time the sun had begun to make its appearance in the eastern sky. Walking over to her he felt her brow for any sign of warmth. His hand encountered an icy cool brow instead. He felt for a pulse and was relieved when it was strong and steady. Why is she as cold as death? When he looked back at her face he was surprised to see violet orbs staring back at him. “How are you feeling?” Not answering him she rose into a sitting position. Flinging the coverlet back she stood. When she faced him again he could not sense her warmth as he had before. “ I require the use of the baths. After that if you would not mind I would like to spend my time in the dojo.” He felt the coldness sweep over him at her words. What was wrong with her? While what had happened had to have been terrifying and painful he could not imagine her becoming so cold as this as a result. Merely nodding in his assent he made his way from the room and headed towards his study. Once behind his large desk his mind wandered back to the events of the night before. He had been leaving Shiori’s and was a little disgusted with himself. He could find no arousal for the beautiful demon temptress beneath him. No it wasn’t until he closed his eyes and imagined it was Kagome’s naked form beneath him shivering in her pleasure had he been finally able to reach his peak. As he made his way to his inner courtyard he had stopped upon smelling the miko’s fear. It had been thick enough to grasp as he felt his heart speed up and the rage overcome him. Hearing her screams rip through the night he had made the space between the ground and the balcony that housed his springs in one leap. Watching in rage as the tears coursed down her face while her attacker pounded into her again and again. If he had been any longer at Shiori’s he would have been too late to stop Kotaru from marking her as his. As it was he couldn’t help feeling remorse at her rough treatment and the pain she must now house in her soul.


He could no longer fight the feelings he held for this young woman in his home. He had watched her with the children over the last two weeks and observed her mornings when she thought to be alone. The first time he had seen her wield her katanas matching the routine he himself had devised as a way to strengthen his remaining arm he had been in shock. The feeling had been replaced by awe however when he realized though she was much slower than him she still managed to perform the routine almost flawlessly. He knew now he would have to step up her training to keep pace with her uncanny ability to learn. Shaking his head clear of these thoughts he was stopped when one other raised itself in his mind. Why had she not purified the young lord when he first grabbed her to mate? Was it a coincidence? Not wanting to ponder this he sat back to wait her arrival.


Naraku leaned back against the wall and gazed at the visage revealed to him in Kanna’s mirror. Feeling the emptiness radiating in her young form as she bathed. “ Kami, this is what I have been waiting for! She is completely defenseless in her utter emotional hollowness. She will be mine! Kagura, come this instant!” He turned his gaze to the door where she had appeared. “Go now and take with you the strongest three demons at my disposal. I want you to have them attack in the western lands. You will lure Sesshomaru out into battle so that the miko can be obtained. Do not fail me in this Kagura, if you do you know what will happen.” Kagura shuddered, and muttered her obescience to the foul demon before her. Swiftly making her way to the courtyard she called out three-snake youkai to her. Pulling the feather from her hair she set out to the west the youkai following in her wake.



Enjoy!
