Close Encounters Of The Fluffy Kind

Kumiko knew that Sesshomaru and her father would be meeting and it was the perfect opportunity for her to make her move. She walked down the stairs and headed for the library, where the meeting was supposed to take place. That fool, Jaken, had already poured the glasses of wine and had cut up the cake that would be served to the two lords. She grinned and quietly slipped into the room. She walked over to the glasses and poured a bit of the powder into each goblet. The powder was not deadly and would only cause a person to go into a deep sleep, so her father would not be harmed by drinking the concoction.

She snickered to herself and quickly exited the library. On her way to her chambers, she saw that yucky little toad and she said, “Please ask Lord Sesshomaru to come and see me. I would like to apologize for my behavior. Oh, and bring me something to drink, toad. I am feeling the need to celebrate.”

Jaken rolled his eyes. He nodded and told one of the servants to fetch the pig a bottle of wine. He could not stand that female and would be glad when she left the palace in the morning.

After he was sure that the servant did as she was told, Jaken hurried to the library to serve his lord. He entered and saw both males seated, talking about the current situation and Jaken smiled when Lord Sasko said, “Lady Kagome is certainly lovely. It is no wonder why you would choose her. The fact that she is a blood moon miko makes the entire situation that much better.”

Sesshomaru nodded. He lifted his goblet, but then eyed the cake. He set the goblet down and said, “Jaken, you may serve the cake.”

Nodding, Jaken placed a slice of cake upon his lord’s plate and served him. He, then, grabbed another plate and served Lord Sasko. Both males dined on the cake and came to the understanding that Kumiko’s claim was forfeited. No youkai in its right mind would ever pass over a blood moon miko and Sesshomaru was satisfied that Kumiko would no longer be a problem.

Sesshomaru smacked his lips and reached for his goblet once more. He lifted it to his lips, but then Jaken accidentally knocked over a vase and Sesshomaru ended up setting his goblet down and ordered the toad to clean up the mess.

Sesshomaru noticed Lord Sasko’s tired appearance and told him that the meeting was over. The other lord nodded gratefully and got up. He teetered out of the library and headed for his room. Funny, he wasn’t all that tired a few minutes ago, but now, all he wanted was a nice, long rest.

Jaken watched the other lord leave the library and then looked at his lord. “Forgive me, my lord. Lady Kumiko has requested that you come to her room. She wishes to make a formal apology to you about her behavior.” He squeaked.

Sesshomaru lowered his head a bit, and then shook his head. “Jaken, go to Lady Kumiko’s room and tell her that I will not be joining her. I intend on marking Kagome on this night and do not wish to be disturbed.” He said, his golden eyes flickering with determination.

Jaken gulped and nodded. He watched as his lord strolled out of the library and he sighed. He walked over to where his lord’s goblet of wine sat and he lifted it up. He needed something to ease his nerves if he was going to listed to that pig oink about how angry she was that Sesshomaru did not come to her. He downed the goblet and shook his head. He could feel his body grow warm as the alcohol made its way to his stomach. Damn, he needed that.

He shook his head and walked up the stairs. He turned down the hallway that held Kumiko’s room and he grinned. That wine was making him feel really good. Staggering a bit, he went up to Kumiko’s door and knocked. This was going to be interesting.
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Kumiko swayed to music that only she could hear. She giggled madly and snorted her glee. Tonight, she would become the lady of the west and that bitch, Kagome, would be a distant memory.

She felt like singing, and opened her mouth to belt out a few words, but a knock on her door made her stop and grin. Eagerly, she called for the person to enter and she quickly blew out the candle. She wanted this moment to last and she wanted total darkness to enhance the eroticism of the moment.

The door opened and Kumiko was hit with the full effects of the wine. She snickered and said, “You don’t have to be shy with me, love. Come over here and I will make you forget everything.”

Jaken swaggered a bit and then shrugged. Why the hell not? After all, he was feeling oh-so good and it didn’t hurt that he couldn’t see shit.

He found the bed and hopped up on it. Suddenly, a pair of rough lips smashed down onto his and Jaken’s world came alive. He was feeling things that no man should and yet it felt so right. At that moment, his angelic female that was currently pleasuring his staff. Jaken’s eyes rolled into the back of his head and he sighed. He could not wait to see what else this vixen could do.
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Sesshomaru groaned when he came back to the bedchambers and found Kagome asleep. He cursed his luck, but then shrugged. Well, there was no law saying that he could not mark her before breakfast.

Satisfied in his decision, Sesshomaru stripped himself of his clothing and got into the bed. He molded his body against Kagome’s and allowed his tail to wrap around her. This was what he had been missing all of those lonely years. He had needed family and now that he had it, he would not lose it. He rested his hand upon Kagome’s belly and closed his eyes. He smiled and thought about the day his pup would reside inside his chosen mate’s womb.

Taking in a deep breath, Sesshomaru’s body relaxed and he soon found himself lost in the land of dreams. Lately, all of his dreams had been good.
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Kumiko awoke feeling happy. She had done it. She had mated with the great taiyoukai, but he had been unable to mark her since he passed out right after the actual act of fucking. Well, he could do it this morning. She could not wait to flaunt her conquest in front of that whore, Kagome.

Kumiko rolled over and grinned at the huge lump of blanket that was surrounding her love. She inched closer and cooed, “You can come out, my sexy beast. I promise to be very gentle with you.

Jaken’s eyes popped open. He had been having a wonderful dream and had been surrounded by the ladies Kagome, Ayame, and Sango. All three women had dumped their lovers and came to him, begging for the release that only he could give. Who was he to deny such beauty, even if two of them were human.

He grinned and stretched his small body. Last night, he had found himself a woman that set his senses ablaze. She was probably a servant who had found that she could not control her desire for him and had seduced him into one of the guest rooms. She rocked his world and left him begging for more. Suddenly, a feminine voice called out to him and Jaken felt his little pecker stir, anxious to get some more of that generous loving from his little woman.

Both were ready to continue the pleasurable acts from the night before and Jaken eagerly flung back the covers to reveal himself to his tasty morsel, however, he was greeted by the most disgusting sight he had ever laid eyes on.

Kumiko sat before him, her huge breasts resting upon the blankets and she was not wearing any makeup, well, actually her pillow was now wearing it, but without the makeup to help, Kumiko looked like a male. Jaken squeaked in horror and felt his pecker deflate just as quickly as it had come on.

Kumiko stared in horror at the little toad that was beside her. Oh, please. Please don’t let it have been this disgusting bastard that she fucked the previous night.

Both stared at each other and sniffed the air. Their fears confirmed, both let out an ear-piercing scream.
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Sesshomaru’s lips eagerly made love to Kagome’s and both moaned in satisfaction as their bodies merged together. For them, making love was so much more than just the placing of a cock inside of a pussy. No, for them, making love was making the other crave them until the next joining. It served as a reminder to both that only their partner could bring them such satisfaction.

Sesshomaru licked at the junction of Kagome’s neck, preparing it for his mark. He felt Kagome’s hands at his side, stroking him and encouraging his bite. He smirked at her eagerness and awaited the moment when he would strike. It was so close and as his seed began to leave her body, he reared his head back and slowly began to descend to mark his mate. However, a loud scream put a halt to that plan and the couple stared at each other before leaping out of bed and grabbing their robes. They dashed out into the hall and ran down the corridor until they joined the group that was standing in front of Kumiko’s door.

Lord Sasko pounded on the door. “Kumiko! Kumiko, open the door, precious.” He yelled, his body tensed in preparation of a fight.

Suddenly, the door flung open and Jaken came running out. He was naked, clutching his clothing and looked very ill. Kumiko came crashing to the door and pointed a shaking finger at the toad.

“YOU ARE NOT SESSHOMARU!!” She screamed, not realizing that she had an audience.

“AND YOU ARE NOT A WOMAN!!” Jaken shrieked back. The toad took off down the hall making gagging noises and muttering about how he will never he able to get it back up now that Kumiko had scared it into hiding.

Lord Sasko was furious. His precious little flower had been deflowered. He glared at Sesshomaru, but stopped when he heard Kumiko screaming in her room how that toad had ruined her plans of trapping Sesshomaru. Suddenly, the hall became very quiet, with the exception of Ayame’s quiet snickering.

Sasko had heard every word. His daughter had tried to set up Sesshomaru, but the toad had ended up falling into her trap instead of his lord. He thought back to the previous evening, and remembered his sudden exhaustion and lightheadedness. Suddenly, it became very clear as to what had happened, and he marched into his daughter’s room.

“Kumiko, I demand an explanation.” Sasko thundered, not caring if he upset his daughter.

Kumiko glared at her father. “Can’t you see that I have been dishonored? That frog fucked me.” She said, ignoring the loud giggles that were coming from the hall.

“I see, and tell me, how exactly did you plan on trapping Lord Sesshomaru? Don’t even think about lying, we all heard you.” Sasko said, his voice dripping with venom.

Kumiko gulped. She took in a deep breath. “I simply wanted him to come to my chamber so that I could seduce him. Nothing more.” She said weakly.

Suddenly, the shrill sound of two females laughing was heard, followed by a yelp from females when they were silenced. Normally, Sasko would have been offended, but on this occasion, he had to agree that their mirth was well deserved.

“My dear, Lord Sesshomaru would never mate with you. I have tried to be patient, but you have forced my hand. When we get back to our lands, I will be calling upon a male of my choice to mate you. It is clear that you need a firm hand, and unfortunately, I can no longer control you. Your blatant disregard for our host and his mate have dishonored our name and I will not tolerate it any longer. Pack your belongings, Kumiko. We are leaving within the hour.” Sasko said, his tone hard.

Kumiko shrank back from her father. She tried one more tactic that she knew would tug at his heart. She batted her eyelashes at him and said, “Daddy, please.”

Sasko glared at her. “I said, pack your shit, now.” He growled. He whirled away and stormed from the room. He didn’t even look at the spectators and continued to his chamber. He just wanted to leave with some sort of dignity.

Finally, Ayame gave Kouga a pitiful look and he sighed. He released her mouth and watched as Inu Yasha did the same with his woman. Both females glanced at Sesshomaru, and he waved at them.

“She is all yours.” He said as he grabbed Kagome’s arm and turned to go back to their chamber.

Ayame and Sango glanced at each other and grinned. They moved away from their males and eagerly approached the chamber.

“Good morning, Kumiko.” They sang before closing the door.

Kouga, Inu Yasha, and Miroku listened as yelps and thuds were heard and before they knew it, the door swung open to reveal a very happy wolf and satisfied human.

Ayame winked at her mate and skipped down the hall to their chambers. She felt so good at that moment. This morning was a morning that would be etched into her mind for the rest of her life. If she died today, at least she could go out with a smile.

Kouga glanced at the other males and then trotted off after his woman. Seeing her this happy meant that he would get lucky before breakfast.

Now, the only people left in the hall were Miroku, Sango, and Inu Yasha. Sango looked at both males and smiled. She nodded at Miroku and then leaned up to give her hanyou a kiss on his cheek. When he purred at her, she giggled and left the males to go back to her chamber.

Inu Yasha and Miroku stared at each other. Finally, Miroku cleared his throat and said, “Back off, Inu Yasha. Lady Sango is my woman and I won’t have you coming between us.”

Inu Yasha glared at the monk for a moment and then said, “You pushed her away, lecher. Sango and I care deeply for each other and I don’t grope her. I respect her, and she enjoys my company. I have as of yet to earn a smack from her. Perhaps you should be the one to back off.”

Miroku sighed. “You knew that we were having problems and you jumped right in while she was vulnerable. You took advantage of her while she was upset. She is confused, placing her love for me on you because you comforted her. You need to let me deal with her and repair the love between us.” He said. He was trying, Buddha help him, he was trying so damn hard not to take his staff and jam it up Inu Yasha’s tight anal passage.

Inu Yasha growled. He wanted to rip his friend apart, but decided instead to simply turn and walk away from the conflict. He marched to his chamber and sat down on his bed. Was the monk right? Was Sango confused about who she wanted? Perhaps he would speak to her after breakfast. He really wanted to be with Sango. She and Kagome accepted him for what he was, hanyou.

Miroku watched as his long-time friend walked away from him. He decided to go outside and meditate on the situation. Perhaps his answer would come to him while he relaxed.
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Jaken eagerly scrubbed his entire body and felt his stomach roll in agony. Since leaving that horrible room, he had emptied the contents of his stomach and grimaced as the images flooded his brain. It was all coming back to him and he was now positive that he would turn gay. Kumiko had turned him from females forever.

He could hear the guards laughing at his expense and he groaned. He was already getting jabbed at for being Sesshomaru’s ass-kisser, but now he would be teased for sleeping with Kumiko. Kami, why did his life have to be so hard?
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Kagome sighed and watched as her lover paced the floor of their bedchamber. His constant mumblings made her shake her head and then say, “Sesshomaru, relax. She didn’t succeed. Right now, I am more worried about Jaken and his mental state. After all, he was the one who had to wake up to that.”

Sesshomaru shuddered at the imagery of Kumiko in the morning. Better Jaken than him. He glanced over at his woman and smirked. He moved closer to her and wrapped his tail around her waist.

“How do you feel about our agreement being somewhat altered?” He asked, mischief in his voice.

Kagome cocked an eyebrow. “And, exactly how would it be altered?” She asked. She watched as his smirk broadened into a grin.

“I want to mark you, Kagome. I want to place my mark upon you and make you mine. If you are willing, I would like to make this happen tonight. I would have marked you this morning, but we were interrupted. Tonight, I will give you a night that you will not forget, my mate.” Sesshomaru whispered, his tongue flicking out to taste the sweetness of Kagome’s neck.

The intensity of his words made Kagome moan in anticipation. She smiled up at him and felt his tail pull her closer to his body. Kagome giggled and placed her head upon his chest.

“Well, since you put it that way, I can’t wait for tonight, then.” She said as she tilted her head up to look at him.

Sesshomaru nodded in approval and then released her. He told her to dress and then meet him downstairs. He had to see their guests off and then he would meet her in the dining room.

Kagome grinned as he schooled his face into a look of indifference and left the room. Within their bedchambers, he was a totally different youkai. He actually showed emotion, and was kind. She was beginning to crave that Sesshomaru more than anything.

She quickly dressed and left the chamber. She walked past Sango’s room and heard her best friend and Inu Yasha talking.

“Is he serious? He told me to stay away from him and now he is telling you to back off? Why would he do this?” Sango asked, her voice quivering.

Inu Yasha snorted. “Because he is jealous. He doesn’t like it that you moved on so quickly and he wants you to pine over him again. He can’t stand the fact that we are getting along so well. Sango, I’m not going to tell you what to do, but Miroku is pretty serious about getting you back.” He said, his voice softening.

Sango sighed. She turned when she heard a soft knock on her door. She called for the person to enter, and Kagome walked in with a sheepish smile.

“I’m sorry, but I was walking by and overheard. Sango, may I ask you a question?” She asked, her eyes lowering.

Inu Yasha wanted to groan. He could almost bet that Kagome was going to ask why she wanted to be with him. However, her question stunned him.

When Sango nodded, Kagome asked, “Which male are you more comfortable with? It is clear that with Miroku you are always upset, but I have noticed that when you are around Inu Yasha, you are much happier and you smile more. So, before you make any major decisions, figure out who makes you more comfortable. After that, the decision of who you should be with should be pretty easy.”

Sango let out a slow breath. When said that way, it was pretty easy to decide which man she was happier with. She gave Kagome a shaky smile.

“So, are you ok with me being around Inu Yasha?” She asked, her eyes searching Kagome’s carefully.

Kagome laughed and waved her hand. “Sure. I mean, I am mating with Sesshomaru, so if you and Inu Yasha end up mating, we will be sisters for real.” She said.

Sango’s eyes sparkled. Knowing that her best friend supported her decision to be with the hanyou made her feel much better. She hugged Kagome and then threw herself into her hanyou’s arms. This was the happiest day of her life.
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

This was the worst day of his life. He had acted foolishly and now he had competition for Sango’s affections. He tried to meditate, but peace would not come. Instead, his mind had been filled with vivid images of Sango and Inu Yasha in the middle of screwing their brains out and he found himself actually wishing harm to the hanyou.

Shaking his head, he got up and was about to walk back to the palace, but a soul stealer floated into the nearby forest and he became curious. He followed the stealer and soon found himself standing before Kikyo.

The dead miko was breathtaking. With her hair loose, and the wind blowing it all around her, Kikyo looked like an avenging angel, however, the sneer upon her face destroyed all ideas of her being an angel.

“Where is Inu Yasha, monk?” She demanded, her voice cold. She had been searching for the hanyou for a few weeks and now that she knew that he was at his brother’s home, she wanted to see him, touch him, and remind him that he still was bound by his promise to her to go to hell with her.

“Inu Yasha is no longer available to you, Lady Kikyo. It seems that another woman has taken his love.” Miroku replied, his stomach twisting in a giant knot.

“I see. And does Sesshomaru know that Inu Yasha is still pining for the cursed miko? I am sure that he would be interested to know that his intended filled the mind of the hanyou.” Kikyo hissed, her voice angry.

Miroku gave a sad sigh. “Alas, it is not Lady Kagome who fills the hanyou’s heart. Lady Kagome is quite involved with Lord Sesshomaru and from what I have seen, neither have any reason or opportunity to look outside their own bedchambers. No, the woman who has taken your place is my Sango. That hanyou stole her from me.” He explained as he moved to sit on a tree log.

Kikyo narrowed her eyes in concentration. Sango. He must mean that slayer that travels with the group. “Why would she turn away from you to be with the hanyou?” Kikyo asked.

“We….had words. A disagreement, if you will. Now, I must be getting back to the palace. Would you like for me to give Inu Yasha a message for you?” He asked.

The dead miko slowly nodded. “Yes, tell him that I will be waiting for him right here tonight after sundown. Explain to him that I would like to speak with him.” She said as her stealers wound themselves around her body. Soon, she was out of sight and Miroku turned and walked back to the palace. A smile formed upon his lips as a plan formed in his mind.

Yes, this would definitely be his way back into Sango’s good graces.
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Kumiko glanced over at her father and Lord Sesshomaru. Her face was flaming as her father told Sesshomaru that Jaken was not to be punished for his daughter’s stupidity. He had been tricked and humiliated, thus preventing his lord from suffering the fate Kumiko had intended.

Sesshomaru nodded and shook Sasko’s hand. He looked over at Kumiko, who was glowering at the floor. He shook his head and smirked.

“Farewell, Lady Kumiko. Your father has a mate already picked out for you and I am sure that Lord Zulu will be just what you need.” He said, his golden eyes glinting maliciously.

Kumiko paled. Zulu? Her father was actually considering that baka, Zulu. Zulu was another boar youkai who did not believe in beauty. He had one good eye and made rude noises whenever he walked. His rotund body barely fit through doors and he oinked after each sentence. She gave her father a pleading look and felt the tears form in her eyes. Her father would not be so cruel.

Sasko shook his head. He motioned for Kumiko to exit the palace and then nodded at Sesshomaru. It had been the western lord to suggest Zulu. Lord Zulu never had very much luck with the ladies and now he would not have to worry about finding a mate. Once they got home, he would send a messenger to Lord Zulu with a proposition of mating his daughter in exchange for taking her off his hands. Hell, he was willing to pay Zulu to come and get her, but he could not seem too eager. After his daughter was mated and gone, he would dance the night away, his mate’s feelings be damned. His precious little flower was a giant pain in his ass that was about to become someone else’s problem.

Sasko turned and left the palace. He climbed into the carriage and ordered his daughter to shut the hell up and to remain quiet for the entire ride back to their lands. Kumiko’s face turned bright red and she grunted in frustration. This was the most humiliating day of her life.
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Inu Yasha sat on Sango’s bed with his slayer nestled in his lap. He closed his eyes and felt her bury her head in the crook of his neck. It felt good to hold a woman and know that she accepted him for what he was, not what he could become because of a stupid jewel. It had amazed him that Kagome supported their relationship and he was thrilled to know that even though he was a bastard, Sesshomaru actually did have feelings and they were all directed at Kagome.

A knock on the door was heard and Sango called for the person to enter, thinking that it was Kagome. However, it was Miroku and he simply looked at the couple with steady eyes before saying, “Inu Yasha. I ran into Kikyo out in the forest and she has asked that you meet with her after sundown. She seemed quite upset and was quite insistent that what she had to say was very important.”

Inu Yasha shook his head. “I’m not going. I don’t care. Not anymore. I refuse to take the blame for something that I did not do. Let her wait. She is not my concern anymore.” He said, his eyes lowering to stare lovingly into Sango’s huge dark ones.

Miroku gritted his teeth, but then nodded. “I will meet with her and inform her of your decision. Good day to both of you.” He said, as he left the room.

He closed the door and then leaned against it. He could not believe what he had heard. Inu Yasha was going to go back on his word. Perhaps Lady Kikyo would be interested in a partnership. With her on his side, he would win his ladylove back.

Happy with his decision, Miroku strolled down the hallway, whistling a lively tune. He had much to think about and plan.
