Chapter 18: The Goddess Returns

The Western Palace had been in an uproar. Servants and soldiers whispered amongst themselves about the strange and beautiful woman that would haunt its corridors, usually followed by the Lord Kubaksuru.

It had been a few days since Kubaksuru’s revelation and he was concerned for his daughter. She had taken to wandering around by herself deep in thought. Often times he would see her peeping in on the sleeping forms of Rin and Shippo and worry would creep into her eyes.

“What’s wrong with her,” Inuyasha asked when the Northern Lord expressed his concern to the brothers. They had been spending most of their time in Sesshoumaru’s study, trying to come up with a strategy to defeat Naraku, and was vaguely aware of what was going on.

Kubaksuru and Inuyasha watched as Sesshoumaru stood and looked down into the courtyard. He could see Kagome sitting by herself amid a garden of blue and yellow flowers that lay next to a crystal pond. She seemed to be mesmerized as she sat gazing up toward the heavens.

“I have not felt any distress from her but, she seems worried about something.” Sesshoumaru said quietly, almost to himself.

Kubaksuru glanced down at the beautiful woman in the garden and smiled. “I know what worries her, but that will not be decided until her task is completed.”

Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru glanced at the tiger curiously but they could tell that, that was all he would reveal to them for the moment.

“More damn secrets,” Inuyasha growled in irriation.

Kubaksuru chuckled at his youngest Godson and gestured down to Kagome. “If you want some advice pup, go to her. She needs her Heart and Soul.”

Having had enough of Sesshoumaru’s servants tiptoeing around her, Kagome decided to seek solitude out in the courtyard. She sat and raised her eyes to the sky. She thought about her two loves, her children, and her father. Her life had changed so much. Once upon a time she was just a regular girl but now the entire world was rested on her shoulders. Ever since her father had revealed her purpose, long forgotten memories rushed back. She could remember the comforting sound of the Supreme One’s voice, she could also remember meeting her heart and soul the very first time before Naraku’s bond had shattered him in two.

“Naraku…”

Kagome’s soft hands that had now grown delicate claws grasped a few flowers and crushed them in her anger. She cringed in disgust as she began to remember how she once had loved Naraku.

“My love that is all in the past.”

Kagome stiffened at Sesshoumaru’s voice and turned her eyes down to stare at her reflection in the water. She was silent as she stared at the unfamiliar creature that looked back at her and a tear escaped her eyes, falling into the pond and making the reflection distort with the tiny ripples. Suddenly in the water she saw two sets of golden eyes on either side of her. She gasped as Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru both wrapped their arms around her and held her warmly, offering their love and comfort.

Kagome relaxed in their embraces and sighed. She could feel Inuyasha’s claws running through her hair and she before she could stop herself she began to purr.

Sesshoumaru smirked at his brother’s tact and when Kagome lifted her chin he dove to her throat. His hands captured her head as he started to gently lick at her soft, fragrant flesh. He could feel her begin to tremble and a rosy flush spread across her cheeks.

Inuyasha’s hands migrated from her hair to her shoulders and he slowly began to undo the layers of her kimono. When he finally reached the creamy skin of her back he stared momentarily at her beauty, then tenderly he placed his lips to the base of her spine and began to slowly work his way back to the top.

Kagome threw her head back with the multitude of hot kisses that threatened to take her body to a place she had never been before. She moaned passionately when Inuyasha had exposed her upper body and began to kiss her back, whilst Sesshoumaru had cupped his hands over the peaks of her hardening nipples. She felt herself burn up with pleasure as her lovers explored every inch of her body. Every touch, every kiss seemed to ingnite a fire in her that flooded down to her abodomen and she felt her arousal escape from her in a gush.

Sesshoumaru’s mind went into a sensory overload as he felt his beloved subcumb to an orgasm, and he glanced over to Inuyasha who’s eyes had grown dark. He pulled away from Kagome, hushing her heated protest, and laid his pelt on the ground. Nodding to Inuyasha he gently guided Kagome to the warm fur of the pelt and he began to lap at her heaving breasts. He trailed his hands along the curves of her body and smiled when she arched up towards him.

Kagome began to squirm in anticipation as she felt Inuyasha slide the rest of her garments down her waist, and past her legs. She reveled in the sensation of the tickle of his fingers as they went along her skin, the firm hands of Sesshoumaru, and the silky fur against her back. Suddenly she arched her back when another sensation shot through her already sensitive body. The sensation of a hot, curious tongue that began to explore the depths of her innocence. She could feel her thighs gently grasped and spread wider as the tongue brought her to a new height of pleasure.

Inuyasha’s tongue centered on the lovely pinkness of her femininity. He tasted the sweetness of Kagome’s release and began to lap up her essence like a kitten that had been starved for its mothers’milk. His eyes traveled up to see the clenching of her strong thighs, the rise and fall of her tummy, and to her face, which had the most beautiful expression of blank ecstasy. He smiled as he saw Sesshoumaru glance at him and retreat away from the soft temptation of her breasts and join him at the apex between her legs.

Kagome was so lost to her pleasure that she did not realize that Sesshoumaru had stopped his administrations but, with a startled moan she realized that there were now two tongues, licking and kissing her. Dazedly she lowered her eyes to see two silver heads bobbing and lapping at her. Their hair was mingling and in her confusion her lovers appeared to combine into one. She threw her head back with a loud impassioned moan that was forced from her, and was lost to another orgasm.

Her mind was overcome as her body tried to come down from the heaven it had been brought to but, before it could she felt a hard, warm body center itself between her legs. She gazed up into blazing golden eyes that looked down on her in complete adoration and his lips hungrily captured hers in a searing kiss.

That kiss… that glorious kiss. It was a kiss of extreme longing. A fierce possessive kiss that claimed her, body and soul. She felt her body expand and allow the completion of her love as it screamed its elation.

Kagome was consumed by the power at which he took her. He rocked her body with a force that threatened to make her lose her mind. It was a sweet combination of pleasure and pain and she was completely taken. She could feel the rise in her temperature and was not afraid as she let herself flow into a new power. She moaned as she wrapped her arms tightly around him and was lost to his thorough loving of her.

The lovers were gone to each other and as they reached the peak of their pleasure, the clouds above them began to part. Then a beam of light exploded from the sky and enveloped them. After a few moments the glow surrounding them dissipated. Stunned they reluctantly released each other and stood gazing up at the sky.

“He blessed us,” Sesshoumaru said quietly and he and Inuyasha turned to look at their mate standing beind them.

They both took in a audible breath as they took in her beauty. Her hair had lengthened to her feet and was flowing across her body in the wind. Her skin had a glow, a sort of ethereal shimmer and her eyes sparkled as they rivaled the blue of the sky and the gold of the sun. Her perfect lips smiled as she looked at her mates and her musical voice rang out to them as their hearts skipped a beat.

“I have returned!”
