Chapter 15: Comfort And Love

WARNING: LEMON! LEMON! LEMON!

Miroku stared out at the star speckled sky, his mind wandering to the last few days. Naraku’s attack on Kagome was a clear sign that he feared her, that he feared her power as well as the power of them all. The dreaded hanyou was becoming desperate. He sighed and stared at his sealed hand. Every day he could feel the pull of death upon him, every day he could feel another step taken towards his own doom. If Naraku were not destroyed soon, he feared that he had little time left.

“Your aura is filled with confliction, what ails you, I wonder?” a soothing voice shattered through his thoughts.

Miroku turned to see Tsaisuki standing behind him, garbed in a thin sleeping yukata. Her long azure hair hung over her shoulder, tied loosely. Her silver eyes seemed curious and wise simultaneously as she took a seat beside him. Miroku felt his fingers twitch with want to caress her silken skin beneath the white shift, but stilled his hand. Doubt seemed to run rampant in his mind since Renshi’s arrival. She held so much in common with the tiger youkai, and had known him far longer than she had known Miroku himself.

“I am mortal,” Miroku stated.

Tsaisuki nodded, her brows furrowing in confusion. “Hai, I know this.”

“Even if we should triumph over the evil of Naraku, and my curse is lifted. Still, I would leave this world before you.”

“I would cherish every moment,” Tsaisuki assured. “No matter how brief.”

“Renshi loves you, and he is youkai.”

Tsaisuki seemed taken aback. “What are you saying, Miroku?”

“Perhaps he is more suited to be yours,” he said in a rush.

The kitsune sorceress gasped and stared at him incredulously. “Are you saying that your affections have waned? That you said a lie when you declared love to me?” she asked softly.

Miroku shook his head quickly. “No!” he answered, taking her hand in his. “No, I think that I shall never know a love like you. You are a goddess that I would be honored to spend the rest of my days worshipping.”

Tsaisuki smiled as a slight tinge of pink stained her cheeks. “Then why would you suggest such a thing? Should we not stall how we feel for one another? Did you not see what doing that did to our dear Kagome and Sesshomaru? They nearly made themselves sick with their misplaced loss. Why would you wish such a fate upon yourself? Upon me?”

Miroku moved closer to the sorceress and cupped her face in his uncursed hand. “I wish for only joy for you. I just… I was unsure about your feelings for Renshi.”

Tsaisuki smiled lovingly to the monk. “I do not deny that I care for Renshi, but my love is completely yours, Miroku.”

Miroku returned the smile and pulled her towards him until they were a breath away. “That is all I need to know,” he whispered as he pressed a gentle kiss to her lips.

InuYasha stared up at the star filled sky and sighed heavily. Sango had been avoiding him like the plague lately. He didn’t understand. They had made such progress, her allowing him to hold her and nearly letting him kiss her. He wondered what he had done to scare her off and felt the beginnings of a headache build behind his eyes. It happened every time he thought too hard. He groaned softly as he kneaded his temples with this fingers and clenched his eyes shut.

“Yasha-chan?” a soft voice called from the ground.

InuYasha snapped his eyes open at once, ready to kill whomever had called him that, only to gasp as he saw Sango standing below him, her beautiful russet eyes filled with sadness. Without thought, he was on the ground before her. “Sango? What’s wrong?”

Sango sniffled and threw herself into his arms as she wept. “K-Kagome said… she said…”

“Kagome said what, Sango?” he asked as he wrapped his arms about her and held her, mentally reveling in the warmth of her body as she clung to him.

“She said Naraku told her that K-Kohaku was… was…”

InuYasha knew at once what she was saying. Naraku had removed Kohaku’s shard and now was dead. He held her harder, letting her weep openly as he brought her to her knees and leaned against the trunk of the tree. “Just cry it out, Sango,” he comforted softly.

“He… he’s gone. What am I going to do? I-I’m alone now!” she wailed.

InuYasha shook his head and pulled her back to lock his eyes with hers. “No… you’re not alone!” he growled. “You have me.”

Sango sniffled and a small smile appeared on her face as she ran her fingers through his hair and caressed his cheek. “I do?”

He nodded. “You do and I will make sure, personally, that Naraku pays for what he’s done with his life.”

Sango nodded, unable to trust her own words as she stared at him in awe. “Thank you,” she whispered finally.

“I… I never want to see another I love suffer because of that bastard. I want to see you happy again,” he said.

“You… you love me?” she asked.

InuYasha’s eyes widened. Had he actually said that aloud? “Um… well… I…”

Sango smiled as her eyes filled with love. “You love me?”

InuYasha nodded. “More than any woman I’ve ever loved.”

Sango’s smile widened as she moved forward quickly and pressed her lips to his. InuYasha’s eyes grew huge for a moment, before closing as he savored her kiss. He nibbled her bottom lip with his fangs and was given entrance into her sweet mouth, his tongue tasting every inch of her warm cavern. They remained entwined until air was needed and broke apart with a gasp. Sango’s eyes looked softly into his darkening amber orbs.

“Make love to me, InuYasha. Make me forget the world for one night,” she begged softly.

InuYasha couldn’t hold back any longer. He fell to his knees and crawled into her arms, pinning her to the ground. He pressed his lips passionately against hers and felt the world disappear around them. Sango was all he could see, all he could feel. He let his tongue wet her lips and she parted them slightly. This was his chance. Hungrily, he shot his tongue into her mouth. He tasted her and was soon kissing her like a starving man. He didn’t want this to end, he never wanted to stop. She tasted like honey and sweet wine, it was so intoxicating. He felt Sango moan as he dug his hips into hers.

Sango gasped as he untied her obi and gently pushed her kimono down her smooth arms. She wanted this more than she could possibly imagine. InuYasha was all she needed, all she knew was his lips, his caress as he removed her kimono completely. Her hands moved frantically, tearing at the ties on his clothes and ripping his haori off his shoulders and tossing it aside. Her fingers moved over his skin and she felt shocked at how soft it was. She let her fingers dance over his back until they reached the ties of his hakama.

InuYasha moaned as he became hard. That moment away from her lips had been torture but this was worse. His manhood could not get past the fabric barrier that covered his legs now. InuYasha tore his hakama from his legs quickly and kicked them away as he slowly guided his member to its destination. She was soaking wet in her juices. He smiled as he slowly entered her. He felt pressure as he broke past her barrier and entered her to the hilt. Sango gasped and clenched her eyes as tears fell down her cheeks. InuYasha pulled away from his beloved.

“Are you okay?” he asked, concerned.

Sango nodded. “I’m… I‘ve never-”

“I know,” he said quietly.

At first his thrusts were clumsy but soon he found his rhythm and the both of them were a chorus of gasps and grunts as he moved in and out of her slick channel. AS they reached their peaks, InuYasha felt his demon urge to mark her, to make her his forever. He clenched his teeth and let out a soft growl. Sango knew what he wanted and smiled to him, touching his face gently as she gave him a nod.

“Please, InuYasha,” she gasped. “Make me yours.”

InuYasha paused. “You don’t know what your asking, Sango. If I do this… I can’t take it back. You’d be mind completely.”

Sango smiled and pressed a soft kiss to his lips. “I know.”

InuYasha smiled back to his beloved and began to thrust into her body again, watching as she writhed in pleasure beneath her. With a final thrust, InuYasha plunged his fangs into her soft throat and let out a low growl that caused Sango’s body to shudder in orgasm. Her body followed her instincts and she bit hard onto his throat until she tasted blood .

“Sango!” InuYasha howled as he fell into his own climax and filled her body with his hot seed, her blood dripping from his fangs.

“InuYasha!” she cried in pleasure as she too pulled away from his throat, his blood glistening on her lips.

The pair then collapsed in a heap. InuYasha’s member continued to spill its contents into her body as he kissed his beloved’s mouth. As InuYasha shrunk inside of herb body, he rolled off of her body and lay beside her. Sango moved close to him and draped a pale arm over his body. He then wrapped his arms about her and held her close as he grasped his discarded haori and covered them both.

“I love you, InuYasha,” she whispered as she drifted off into a peaceful, sated sleep.

InuYasha kissed the top of her head gently as he curled around his beloved. “I love you too, my mate,” he whispered back as he too fell asleep.

Levii: Sorry it's been so long, ppl, but you know how muses are. Some days they're chatting away, others, they lock themselves in the damn bathroom and refuse to open the god-damn door!
Sess: No need to scream, my dear. He is out of the bathroom now.
Inu: Yeah, don't be so bitchy... is it that time of the month again?
Levii: (Stares at Inu incredulously) You aren't seriously asking me that, are you?
Miroku: Oo, bad form, InuYasha.
Sess: (slaps hand to forhead) You truly are an idiot.
Inu:(Confused) What?
Levii: YOU STUPID MONGREL! DID I, OR DID I NOT JUST DEVOTE 2/3'S OF THIS CHAPTER TO YOU?!
Inu: Yes?
Levii: (Sighs) Never mind. You'll never change.
Miroku: She's tense tonight.
Sess: (Grins as a thought comes) Yes, she is. I do believe, though, that I can take care of that.
Miroku: (Leherous grin) Ooh, sounds like fun.
Inu: What are you guys whispering about?
Sess and Miroku: (Rolls eyes) Nothing.
(Sess suddenly moves forward and throws the, now squealing, authoress over his shoulder and runs offstage)
Miroku: Hey! Wait up! (Runs after the pair)
Inu: I am so confused right now. Anyways, remember to send your reviews or else the muse will lock himself in the fucking bathroom again and Levii will get irratated at me again. Later!
