Hell Knows No Bounds

A.N.: Aloha! Greetings from sunny, frozen, lifeless Nebraska!! Time to clear up a question I was so ingeniously asked (for once I'm not being a smartass when saying that): The rosary does still work on Inuyasha and it is extremely powerful as well, but it doesn't rough him up too badly due to a sort of tolerance to it. When Inuyasha was changed into a human it still left a lot of muscle and pain endurance behind from the years of battle. So a little "˜sit' here and there won't kill him...*evil grin* I am a little more creative than that"¦ But now it's song fic time! Yay!

Disclaimer: Ah hell"¦I give up. Don't own it so just let me sulk already.

**Last Chapter**

"See you guys soon! I'll be sure to come back!" She giggled as she waved, the wind whipping her hair about her. The cloud rose and disappeared into the horizon. Kikyo set to clearing up the table from breakfast as Kaede returned her attention to her herbs. Inuyasha was left alone to stare at the sky.

"Take care, Kagome. Don't forget us"¦" Inuyasha smiled lightly, missing his best friend already.

**On with the story**

Chapter 13
Burn

Featuring: "Burn" by The Cure (song is in italics)

The travelers landed slowly on the grassy hill; before them stood a beautiful castle. The structure remarkably resembled Princess Kaguya's, a great stone wall and gate surrounded the area. Beyond were vast gardens of countless colors; the reflection of the dark red of the wooden structure and the surrounding plant life rippled in a large pond. Kagome gasped as she took in her surroundings, the fragrant blossoms tickling her sensitive nose. The Tiger demon guards at the gate bowed low as Sesshomaru swept past them; Kagome heard them whisper as she and the children passed.

"I've never seen a demoness of her breed before. Who do you suppose she is?" The younger guard slowly raised his head, catching Kagome's eyes and bowed lower. The power behind her gaze sent cold chills down his spine.

"I have no idea. There's something different about her, of that I am sure." The older guard stood upright and closed the gate. Both youkai went about their duties in a charged silence.

The children chased each other between gardeners, maids, and guards as they climbed the stairs to the main entrance. Various calls of "Welcome back, Lady Rin." followed the giggling girl and kitsune as the great doors swung open. Sesshomaru met the similar greetings of "Welcome back, Milord." accompanied by low bows and curious glances at the demoness at his side. Kagome smiled at the curious faces before they dropped their gaze once more; her focus landed on Sesshomaru's mechanical form as she walked at his side. She blushed and realized she had been staring at him when his gaze fell on her. Kagome gave a nervous laugh and turned from him, her eyes straight ahead.

The various demons working about the house froze and then spread apart; clearing a path for the two for Shippo and Rin had already run off with a cursing Jaken hot on their tails. They stopped at another set of doors and Sesshomaru held up his arm for Kagome to take. She looked at the arm and then back up to him questioningly. He felt another smiled tug at his lips upon seeing her confusion.

"Do you not wish for me to show you the grounds? The halls are vast and it is quite easy to become lost." He smirked lightly as Kagome sighed in defeat and placed her arm upon his; letting him guide her through the doors and down a hallway.

The soft rustle of the silk of Kagome's kimono and Sesshomaru's boots against the polished, wooden floor was all that could be heard. The hallway was empty except for the two of them; once in a while a servant would go from one room to another in haste. The Western Lord led Kagome down the winding halls, stopping to show her various areas such as the dojo, kitchen, dining hall, hot springs, library, and finally the children's quarters. Sesshomaru pushed open the door to a large, peach colored room. Rin and Shippo sat at a table working on various art projects; Rin employed the use of paints, while Shippo preferred the crayons and chalks Kagome had brought for him. The two of them looked up from their work to flash the demon pair bright smiles before going back to work. A second bed had already been brought in for Shippo; Kagome was impressed, to say the least, at the speed in which Sesshomaru was accommodating them.

"You two stay out of trouble, okay?" Kagome warned the two, knowing full well what they were capable of. "And try not to be too hard on poor Jaken." She smiled wickedly as the kitsune and girl laughed.

"Shall we continue?" Sesshomaru raised an eyebrow as slid the door open, Kagome swept past time and waved to the children once more before disappearing around the corner.

"What else is there to see?" Kagome looped her arm through his, her eyes darting from each family painting on the walls. The Taiyoukai smiled slyly down at her; Kagome immediately decided that caution was needed every time he used that smile with her.

"Our chambers of course, my dear Kagome." Sesshomaru kept the laughter in his chest in check. This really was too easy; he almost felt bad for capitalizing on her innocent question"¦.almost. Kagome's face blanched as Sesshomaru continued to lead her.

"O-Our chambers, Sesshomaru?" Her throat was suddenly very tight; her lips felt like sandpaper to her. Instinctively, her pink tongue darted out to moisten them. The Inuyoukai at her side noticed the action and suppressed a groan; there would be no distractions this time.

"Indeed." Sesshomaru smiled slightly as her quickened heartbeat met his ears; her roaring blood was calling to him again.

Kagome, in her stupor of seeing his home, had completely forgotten the smaller details of her new lifestyle. Of course they would be sharing a bed! Kagome mentally kicked herself; a blush was quickly overtaking her snowy skin once more. The demoness had become too wrapped in her own thoughts to notice that they had come to a stop.

"Kagome." His deep voice quickly brought Kagome out of her thoughts, the haze in her eyes quickly dissipating. "We have arrived." Sesshomaru gracefully slid the door open, and stepped inside. The miko-demoness stood at the doorway still, frozen in her own fears and embarrassment. Sesshomaru offered her a hand, which she took with great hesitancy on her part. Ignoring the piercing gaze of Sesshomaru, Kagome gasped in awe of the bedroom.

There were satin curtains of obsidian hanging in front of the balcony doorways. A low, warm breeze made them ripple and flow in the sunlight. The dark wood of the room had been so finely polished that their reflections shown with perfect clarity. In the center of the room lay a large fire-pit surrounded by smooth dark marble. Dark-wooded wardrobes lined one wall while a large vanity occupied another. Kagome's eyes wandered a few feet from the pit and traveled up a small set of marble stairs and fell on the extremely large, canopy bed; another blush heating her skin. The bed itself would have easily fit three, or possibly four, king size beds into itself. Black and silver satin made up the sheets and pillows; the ebony canopy rippled in the breeze of the open balcony doors.

"My goodness"¦" Kagome had held a hand to her lips without knowing it; she walked up the stairs and ran the fingertips of her right hand across the soft material. The satin melted and rippled at the fingertips like warm candle wax. She smiled at the feel of it against her skin; Sesshomaru materialized behind her as she closed her eyes.

"Is this room to your liking?" His voice caressed her again, heating her skin and soul all at once.

"˜Why does he start such a fire in me? I turn to putty in his arms without a second thought"¦' Kagome sighed as Sesshomaru snaked an arm around her waist, pulling her back towards him with her back against his chest. His cheek rested on the side of her head as his other hand danced across her collarbone. Kagome felt the heat intensify as he caresses continued their burning path.

(A.N.: Warning!! Lemon ahead through rest of chapter!!!)

"Don't look don't look" the shadows breathe
Whispering me away from you

A breeze against her neck told her that he had brushed the ebony mane away only to be replaced by Sesshomaru's searing kisses; his soft lips gliding across her glowing skin. With one last defeated sigh, Kagome let the fire sweep her away; this, with Sesshomaru, felt right and she had no intention of ending it.

"Don't wake at night to watch her sleep
You know that you will always lose"

Sunset had come once again. The trip to the castle had lasted into late afternoon and settling in had spent the rest of day without pause. Red and gold poured into the spacious chamber, gliding over the silk, wood, and stone. With a growl from Sesshomaru, the pit roared to life and the flames licked the open air.

"This trembling
Adored
Tousled bird mad girl... "

The pale hand at her waist traveled up to rest beneath her breasts. Kagome raised an arm up and behind her head to catch Sesshomaru's; turning in his embrace, she brought his lips down to her own in a passionate kiss. Her hands tangled themselves in his thick, snowy mane. Sesshomaru gathered her to him, his hands clinging to the back of her kimono as he gave in to her.

But every night I burn
But every night I call your name

It was in that moment that the demon crushed her small form to his that Kagome realized where she truly belonged; in the arms of the hungry Taiyoukai before her. She moaned softly as he nibbled on her bottom lip, begging for her to open to him. The moan gave him the opportunity he need. His hot tongue thrust into Kagome's waiting mouth, tasting all she had to offer. Sesshomaru groaned loudly as her tongue battled his own.

Every night I burn
Every night I fall again

The frustration of what the two of them had held back for the past few days was finally coming to light. Kagome's body had called to Sesshomaru's non-stop for those hellish days and he had been unable to answer. Sliding an arm down, Sesshomaru pulled Kagome's obi from her trembling form. He broke the kiss only long enough to remove his armor and swords; with a determined growl his lips were on hers again.

"Oh don't talk of love" the shadows purr
Murmuring me away from you

Kagome's own claws made short work of the sash at Sesshomaru's waist; with undeniable haste, Kagome slid her hands underneath the kimono and pushed it back off his shoulders and unto the floor. Sesshomaru's breath hissed through his teeth as burgundy-striped hands glided over his bare, lean torso. Clawed fingertips gently traced the stripes on his hips as Sesshomaru slid Kagome's outer Kimono to the ground.

"Don't talk of worlds that never were
The end is all that's ever true

The demoness felt her breath hitch as the hard muscle of Sesshomaru's chiseled form moved beneath his velvety skin. The man was made of living marble in her eyes; not one flaw on his ivory skin. Her breathing troubles continued as she felt a strong hand reach up to cup one of her full breasts in his palm, thumbing the nipple to life. Sesshomaru sat on the bed and pulled Kagome to him, taking the other nipple into his mouth. The other hand cupped Kagome's flushed cheek; she slyly ran her tongue against his thumb, moaning as her knees threatened to give way.

There's nothing you can ever say
Nothing you can ever do... "

"Sesshomaru!" Kagome fell to the demon's lap, straddling him. His tongue worked circles around her nipple, gently biting her once in a while. He then trailed heated kisses to the other breast and repeated his actions; the hand that had held that position now dropped to hold her round bottom. She threw back her head in pleasure as another bite on her nipple sent a shock through her.

Still every night I burn
Every night I scream your name

"Mine"¦" Sesshomaru growled as he licked his way back up Kagome's pulsing throat; capturing her lips in a bruising kiss as rolled over and pinned her beneath him. Kagome groaned as she felt Sesshomaru's arousal press against her stomach. The Inuyoukai smirked in satisfaction as Kagome's heavy, spicy scent swirled around his head, drugging him. At long last, his patience had worn thin.

Every night I burn
Every night the dream's the same

The Western Lord pulled Kagome up with him and ripped the remaining clothing from her heated flesh. The woman instantly dropped her gaze to the floor, embarrassed by her obvious nudity. Sesshomaru stood gazing at the demoness, his blood roaring in his ears. "˜She's perfect"¦and she is mine.' A genuine smile lit Sesshomaru's face as the thought hit him; he pulled Kagome to him with renewed passion. "You're so beautiful, Kagome"¦and love you until the world's end"¦" Kagome smiled as he lowered her to the bed; the sea of black rippling about her small form. "I promise to be as gentle as I can."

Every night I burn
Waiting for my only friend

Kagome closed her eyes in bliss as Sesshomaru trailed open-mouthed kisses down her chest and stomach; only to shoot open as a rough tongue ran against her hot, dripping core. Her hips bucked off the bed as Kagome arched her back in pleasure; her claws grasping at the sheets around her. Her moans were becoming louder and louder with each sweep of Sesshomaru's skilled tongue. The heat pooled in her began to tighten as each stroke went faster and deeper. "˜Oh Gods!!' Kagome arched off the bed again as Sesshomaru pumped a finger into her in rhythm with his tongue. Then an explosion went off behind Kagome's eyes as she screamed the demon lord's name to the heavens. Sesshomaru growled with pride as his tongue worked to lap up all of her juices, drowning in her scent and loving his name on her lips.

Every night I burn
Waiting for the world to end

"D-Don't stop, Sesshomaru! Please!" Her breath came and went in pants as she felt her lover's tongue leave, her heart pounded against her ribcage. A cry escaped her bruised lips as another finger was added to replace his tongue. Sesshomaru raised himself to gently kiss the moaning demoness beneath him; allowing her to taste her own sweet essence. He removed his fingers as he slipped off the bed to remove the rest of his own clothing. Kagome couldn't help as inch by inch more of Sesshomaru's perfect skin was revealed to her. His tail swept across the ground as the moonlight shone against every muscle and curve of his form.

"Just paint your face" the shadows smile
Slipping me away from you

Sesshomaru looked down at he panting Hellhound demoness on the bed, her hair spread about her a disappearing into the inky darkness of the sheets. Sweat glistened off of her moonlit skin as her chest rose with each ragged breath. An affectionate growl rumbled in his chest as he turned to face her fully; a smirk appearing as Kagome's eyes widened on his throbbing member. "˜How the HELL is that supposed to fit!?' Apparently Sesshomaru was more than just "˜well-endowed' for a demon of his breed. She backed up against the headboard as he crawled toward her; his gold eyes held a fire of their own as his blood called for her. Kagome felt her own growl rise as the dog demon approached her; a wicked grin spreading across her moist lips. Within a flash, Sesshomaru had grabbed her ankle and pulled her underneath him. His lips grazed her ear as she wrapped her arms around his neck.

"Oh it doesn't matter how you hide
Find you if we're wanting to

"Forgive me, koi. This will hurt only for a short time." Kagome nodded into his neck and tightened her hold on him, bracing herself for the inevitable. Sesshomaru kissed her neck gently as he poised himself at her entrance; slamming his lips down on Kagome's, Sesshomaru rocked his hips forward and torn through her fleshy barrier. A muffled scream exited Kagome's lips into Sesshomaru's; a single tear gleamed against her alabaster skin but was wiped away by the Inuyoukai's thumb.

So slide back down and close your eyes
Sleep a while
You must be tired... "

They remained still for seemed like an eternity to the Western Lord; Kagome's tight sheath was driving him insane and he longed just to pound away into her for the remainder of the night. "˜No"¦I have to be gentle with her.' Willing himself to stay still, he waited for Kagome's permission to continue. The miko-demoness beneath him shifted, causing a louder groan to fall from his lips. Kagome felt the sharp pain fade to a dull thud and so moved against Sesshomaru, giving him the sign to continue. The Lord of the Western Lands did not have to be told twice.

But every night I burn
Every night I call your name

Starting at a slow, steady pace, the dog demon's own growls of pleasure were met with the Kagome's. The demoness had lowered her hands to his back and now eagerly clawed at it; her moans ate away at the last of Sesshomaru's self-control. A layer of sweat began to form on the Taiyoukai's skin as clutched the woman beneath him. "˜She is so soft"¦so warm"¦so wet"¦' His train of thought was quickly de-railed with another moan from Kagome. "˜Music to my ears"¦' Kagome felt something inside her break free. A primal growl rumbled in her throat.

Every night I burn
Every night I fall again

"Faster...harder, Sess! Don't hold back!" Kagome hissed in a startled, Sesshomaru's ear. "I am yours now and forever"¦" A snarl from the Taiyoukai shook the bed as he slide a hand down Kagome's thigh and grasp the back of her knee, using his other forearm as a support. Kagome released one hand out of his hair to grasp at the sheets above her head; Sesshomaru's new, backbreaking pace tore carnal growls and moans from her as they rocked against one another. She fought to meet his god-like pace. Sesshomaru's eyes began to bleed red as he pounded into the unrelenting woman's body, his own pleasure-filled groans mixing with hers. Every sense of her was intoxicating to him; the Inuyoukai had become addicted to the Hellhound Demoness, Kagome. Pants and grunts mixed with slapping skin; the thick smell of arousal and mating hung in that air like a blanket.

Every night I burn
Scream the animal scream

"Good girl"¦scream my name with all you have!" Desire had turned his voice into something completely dark and new. Kagome found it arousing all the same. The building heat had come back a thousand fold. Kagome squeezed her eyes shut, attempting to blink back the blinding lights that had begun to spark behind her eyelids. "˜Oh"¦.Sesshomaru"¦Sess"¦.my lord.' Sesshomaru sucked on her neck as her inner walls began to tighten around him; he picked up his pace further, willing her to reach her peak. A similar tightening in his own pulsing shaft foretold his approaching release. His lips met hers in a soul-searing kiss.

Every night I burn
Dream the crow black dream

"Oh"¦Sess"¦Oh GODS! SESSHOMARU!!!!" Kagome threw her head back and arch her back into Sesshomaru's thrust as the heat in her crashed through her like a tidal wave, setting every nerve in her body on fire. A heart-stopping roar ripped itself free from her throat as Sesshomaru continued to slam into her. With one final thrust he released himself into her, her muscles taking all of him into her. Sesshomaru's own primal roar left half the castle staff jumping out of their skin; sinking his teeth in the junction between Kagome's neck and shoulder and licking away the blood, enjoying the sweet taste. Kagome was still too dazed to notice the sharp pain. The demon collapsed onto the demoness beneath him and she hugged him close to her, nuzzling him lovingly.

Dream the crow black dream...

"Kagome...koi, my dark beauty, my life, and now my mate." Sesshomaru's panted, whispered words brought a tired smile to Kagome's lips. Gently rolling onto his side, the Taiyoukai pulled the demoness up to rest her head on his chest. A chuckle shook his chest as he recalled what a good idea it had been to sound proof the children's chambers. Kagome snuggled into his chest, far too exhausted to ask questions at this point.

"Good night, my Lord and mate." Kagome whispered against the skin of his chest; Sesshomaru brushed her bangs away from her face before answering.

"Good night, my Lady and mate." Knowing that she had already drifted off to sleep, Sesshomaru covered their nude forms with a satin sheet and was careful not to wake her. For the first time since he could remember, Sesshomaru closed his eyes and fell asleep feeling truly loved and at peace.
