TITLE: Best of the best

PAIRING: Kagome/Seto

SUMMARY: Seto Kaiba is out to prove that he is the best. And the best way to prove that is by gaining a girl who is just as good as he is. And so, he makes a bet with Kagome, who is a novice duelist. All bets are off once the winner is declared. Let's Deul!!

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

“LET'S DUEL!” Kagome and Yumi yelled, a grin on each of their faces. Kagome watched her friend intently as Yumi laid down her first cards. Biting her lip, Kagome knew that Yumi was up to something and was eagerly awaiting her turn.

Because they were so new to the game of dueling, they went slowly, but she was getting better. She kept taking her cards to the feudal era with her and studied them every chance she got. She grinned as Yumi announced that it was her turn and quickly laid down her cards as well.

When Yumi flipped over her face down card and ordered it to attack Kagome's face down card, she quickly realized her mistake and grimaced when Kagome turned over a trap card. Muttering, she shook her head and glared at her cards. Clearly she had made a mistake in picking only the prettiest cards to fight with.

Kagome's turn was quickly over and she looked around to find a tall young man glaring over at her and Yumi. She huffed and rolled her eyes. It seemed that someone was in a foul mood and she really didn't need to put up with anyone's bullshit; especially after her last jaunt in the feudal era.

Their game quickly ended when Kagome managed to kill Yumi's fairies off with a few strong monsters and magic cards. Yumi smiled and shook her head. “Well, I guess Seto Kaiba and Yugi Muto have nothing to worry about with me.” She laughed. Waving at Kagome, she gathered her cards and ran towards the exit, saying that her father was waiting on her and needed her help with dinner.

Sighing, Kagome put her cards away and stepped away from the dueling area. As she walked, she noticed the young man from earlier walking towards her and she allowed her lips to press together in a thin line. There was something about this young man. Something that told her not to mess with him or else he would fuck her over.

The young man kept his eyes on her as he approached her. His cold blue eyes traveled over her body and he finally came to a stop in front of her. “What a joke.” He sneered.

Kagome stopped in her tracks and allowed her hands to move to her hips. “What?” She asked, her tone innocent. “How we play or that outfit you are wearing?”

The young man's face darkened and he pointed to a door that was off to the side of the room. “Big talk, little girl. I dare you to play me a game of duel monsters and let's see how big you really are.” He growled.

Kagome looked at her watch, but gasped when the man's hand closed around her wrist. “Don't worry about the time. Now, let's duel.” He snapped. Turning, he walked away and towards the door, his long trench coat swishing behind him.

Shrugging, Kagome followed and when the door closed behind her, her eyes widened and she gasped. “Wow!” She exclaimed. “I can't believe how big it is.”

Seto smirked. He could show her other things that were just as impressive, but that would come soon enough. “Ok, big mouth. Let's make the game a bit more interesting, shall we?” He asked, his hand reaching into his coat pocket for his beloved deck.

“What do you have in mind?” She asked, already knowing that she wasn't going to like his terms. She knew she was right when a smile graced his cruel lips.

“For each hit I make on your life points, you lose a piece of clothing and vice versa.” He explained, his eyes coming to rest on her short skirt.

Kagome shoulders straightened. Just who in the hell did this asshole think he was? She was not that kind of girl. However, the look in those cruel blue eyes told her that he didn't care what kind of girl she was. She watched as he moved up to one of the platforms and motioned for her to go to the other one. “Hurry it up. I don't have all night.” He snapped.

Huffing loudly, she complied and soon found herself doing her best to defend herself. However, when he destroyed her first monster, he glared at her and said, “Go ahead, strip.”

Lifting an eyebrow, Kagome smiled and kicked off one of her shoes. Giving him a superior smile, she nearly laughed when his scowl deepened and heard him mutter that it wouldn't matter soon, because she would be naked before the hour was up.

But, if he thought that she was just going to roll over and die, he had another think coming. She managed to defend herself pretty well and even got him to remove some of his clothing, his shirt being one of them. Ok, now she was going to humiliate herself by drooling. The man was a very sexy beast, indeed.

Seto didn't know why he was taking it easy on the girl. He could see that she was doing her very best and a few of her attacks surprised and pleased him. It had been a long time since he met a female who didn't bore the shit out of him. But, the game was going to have to come to an end. He didn't care how, he just wanted her naked.

When he drew his next two cards, he smirked. He had just drawn one of his beloved blue eyed, white dragons. He glanced at the girl and then placed the dragon face down. He waited for the expected attack and nearly laughed when it came.

Kagome was shocked. Her monster attacked and was quickly killed off when the card that it had attacked turned out to be a dragon. Kagome paled and then sighed. She slowly peeled off her shirt and stood before the young man in her bra, skirt, and panties. A pretty blush spread across her cheeks and she heard him chuckle.

Seto could not contain his mirth. The girl was beautiful. Yes, he had chosen well and was sure that she would provide him with just as much excitement in bed as she was here in the ring. He stared at her skirt and licked his lips. That damn thing was going to have to be removed....quickly.

Kagome's eyes widened as she took note of the very noticeable bulge in the young man's pants. She bit her lip and quickly made her move, placing a monster in defense mode. When she looked up, she saw the young man shake his head and saw the grin on his lips.

She wanted to scream when he flipped over a magic card that would move her defensive monster into an attack position. Now, she was open and vulnerable, and the bastard knew it. And, he didn't hesitate to take advantage of her in her weakened state.

His white dragon quickly made her monster disappear and she shook her head. This guy was someone she never should have screwed with. With trembling hands, she reached behind her and unzipped her skirt. It pooled at her feet and she shifted uncomfortably. All that she had left was her bra and panties and she had a feeling that they, too, would soon be gone.

Seto wanted to pant. She was wearing a matching bra and panty set that was a soft brown, matching her eyes. He could just imagine his lips moving up that trim body of hers and he had to force some of that famous control that he was well known for. Right now, she was his opponent. He would win and he would claim his victory.

As she cast him a glare, she noticed that he was not looking at her, but was smirking at his cards. He must have something really, really good. Sighing pitifully, she motioned for him to take his turn and watched as he placed not one, but two other dragons on the playing field. Then, he held up a magic card and she watched as all three dragons merged together and made one big white dragon with three snarling heads. Ok, she was now done for.

Seto folded his arms and watched as the girl allowed her shoulders to droop. He pointed at her and said, “Blue eyes, destroy her life points and secure my victory.”

Kagome watched as the dragon prepared for it's attack, and when it came, she allowed her hand to fall and wished that Inu Yasha were there to rip the young man's head off. But, the hanyou was probably with Kikyo at the moment, so she was on her own.

Seto quietly stepped off of the platform and made his way over to the girl, his steps quick. He reached her just as her feet made contact with the floor. He crossed his arms over his bare chest and motioned with his head. “You lost and now, your clothing is mine. But, I'll be nice about it and let you put on the other pieces if you will have dinner with me. If not, then strip.” He ordered.

Kagome's eyes opened wide and she quickly accepted. Dinner sounded harmless. Ok, if that was all he wanted and she got to put on her clothing, she'd do it.

Seto moved to the pile of his clothing and he quickly dressed. He moved over to the girl and extended his hand. “Well....hurry up.” He snapped.

Kagome rolled her eyes and took his hand. He led her from the room and noticed that the security guards were all bowing politely to him, as if he were someone important. She allowed him to pull her outside and heard the girls who were hanging around murmur that the young man was so cute and that she was so lucky to be his girl.

His girl? She wasn't his girl. She was his prisoner, at least for a few hours. Her eyes widened as they approached a long car and watched as the driver got out and quickly opened a door. “Good evening, Mr. Kaiba.” The man said, his voice shaking slightly.

Kagome paled. Mr. Kaiba, the man had said. Was this guy, Seto Kaiba? Oh, lord. That was why he was so good at dueling. Hey, wait a minute. He had an advantage, and he knew it.

Seto knew that the girl had finally figured out who he was. Good. That made things so much easier. Now, all he had to know was what her name was and everything else would come in time. Besides, it was high time that he had a steady girl and this girl was the lucky lady who would cheer him on in competitions.

Kagome didn't say a word as they drove through a large gate and towards a very large house. When they came to a stop, Seto grabbed her hand and tugged on it to let her know that they were getting out. Kagome was prepared to kick him in the shin and run, but stopped when the front door opened and a little boy with long, black hair bounded out and ran over to them.

He smiled at Seto and said, “Hi, big brother. Guess what? Joey Wheeler broke his hand earlier today and probably won't be able to compete at the next competition.”

Seto nodded in satisfaction. Good. The less garbage at the competition, the better. Before he could turn to Kagome and introduce her to Mokuba, his younger brother decided to do it for him.

“Hi, I'm Mokuba Kaiba. Who are you?” He asked, his violet eyes reminding Kagome of Miroku, while his excitement reminded her of Shippo. Kagome smiled and pulled her hand away from Seto's to extend it to Mokuba. “My name is Kagome Higurashi. I'm pleased to meet you, Mokuba.”

Seto smirked. Well, getting her name was much easier than he thought it would be, but then again, Mokuba could get nearly any kind of information from girls with his baby face and large eyes.

After Mokuba shook Kagome's hand, he announced that he was going to stay the night at a friend's house and would be back the next day. That would be perfect. Now, he and Kagome could play all night and not be disturbed.

They watched as the young boy ran down the long driveway, his backpack bouncing up and down on his back, before Seto grasped her hand once more and pulled her to the door and into the house.

When the door was secure behind them, he let go of her hand and went to a small table that held a telephone. He picked up the receiver and pushed a button before snapping, “I want two steaks, both medium, with a baked potato, and salad delivered to my bedroom within the hour. Bring a bottle of my best wine with two glasses up immediately.”

He replaced the receiver and then grasped Kagome's hand once more, taking note of her stunned look, and smirked. If she was shocked now, he would not wait to see her expression upon seeing his personal chambers.

He led her up the sprawling staircase and led her into his room. He heard her gasp and watched as she walked to another set of doors that opened to reveal a balcony. He heard a soft knock on his door and opened it to find one of his servants holding the requested wine and glasses.

He closed the door after telling the servant that they were to only be disturbed when they dinner was ready and then not to bother them after that. The servant scuttled away and he closed the door, and locked it. Just in case.

He walked over to a table and set the glasses down before opening the bottle. He poured their wine and then took the glasses out to the balcony where Kagome was standing. When she finally came into view, the sight of her took his breath away.

Her eyes were closed and her face was tilted up towards the setting sun. A soft breeze gently moved her long tresses around and he noticed a soft smile was adoring her lips. For a moment, a very uncharacteristic smile crossed his lips. Oh, yes. He had chosen well for himself.

Kagome's eyes opened and she found Seto standing beside her, a glass of wine for them in each hand. Taking one, she watched as he brought his glass up to his lips and took a delicate sip. Kagome really didn't like to drink. When she drank, she got loose lips. What if she made a complete ass out of herself?

Seto watched as she finally lifted the glass and gingerly took a small sip. His eyes narrowed and he wondered if she wasn't used to drinking. He set his glass down and folded his arms over his chest.

“So, who taught you how to duel?” He asked, his tone sharp. Even though some of her moves had surprised him, she was no where near being a threat to him, but he needed to know just how much he had to teach her.

“My friend, Yumi, taught me what she knows, but as you probably saw earlier, it isn't much. I am sure that you probably know more than the both of us combined.” Kagome replied, and took another sip of her wine.

“It has many rules and steps you must follow, but once you get into it, it gets easier.” He said, moving to stand behind her.

Kagome felt his large hands upon her shoulders and closed her eyes as his hands began to massage her muscles. It had been too long since she had her shoulders rubbed and the way he was rubbing her made her want to purr in contentment.

Seto noticed that much of the tension in Kagome's body melt away as he continued to rub her. Smirking, he allowed his hands to move down to her lower back and began to rub, using a gentle pressure and soon felt her sway as her body relaxed even more. He wanted her to be complacent, especially when he took her into his bed. This was just one step in his master plan.

When their dinner arrived, Seto led Kagome to the small table in his room and pulled out her chair. Once she was seated and comfortable, he went to the door and let the servant in. He scowled when the servant stared at Kagome a bit too long and was shocked to realize that what he was feeling could be described as possessive. He had never felt like that before and really didn't like it, but could not stop himself from huffing and motioning for the servant to hurry and get the hell out.

Once they were alone, they ate in comfortable silence. Kagome enjoyed the flavor of her meal and finally noticed that a pair of blue eyes were trained upon her intently. She blushed and cleared her throat.

“It's delicious. Thank you very much.” She murmured. Tilting his head to the side in acknowledgment, he put his fork and knife down and reached for the wine bottle. Kagome quickly shook her head and quickly said, “I really shouldn't have any more. I'm going to get drunk.”

Seto quietly wondered if that was really such a bad thing, but shook the thought off and said, “You will not be leaving tonight, so you might as well enjoy yourself.”

Kagome's eyebrow arched and she said, “And why would I be staying here tonight? I do have a home to go to.” She watched as the handsome man stood up and walked over to her side. When he was close enough, he reached out and pulled her out of her seat and to his warm body.

“Because,” He replied, “I have much to teach you and it will take longer than just a few hours. Besides, you still have to finish the rest of our bet and I do believe in collecting on debts.”

Kagome paled. Damn. She thought that he would actually be nice and forget about seeing her nude, but from his expression, she could tell that luck was not with her and she sighed. Damn Yumi for getting her into this mess by showing her duel monsters. And damn the creator for thinking of such a thing. Well, there was no way she could back out now and so, she grasped her glass and drank down the rest of the wine. She might as well be drunk. Hopefully, she will pass out and he will leave her alone.

Seto moved to sit on his bed, and quickly removed his shirt. He watched as Kagome walked towards him and her hands moved to the top she was wearing. It came off quickly and fell onto the floor right along side his shirt and soon her shoes, socks, and skirt joined the shirts.

Kagome noticed that his eyes were now focused on her panties and she wanted to giggle. Never before had a man paid such rapt attention to her. Well, Kouga paid attention to her, but he didn't count. He once told her that the reason why he paid such attention to her was just to piss off Inu Yasha and that despite his words, he was still planning to mate Ayame, he just didn't want to mate so soon. So, it was their little secret and to be honest, it was funny to see the hanyou turn all shades of red as the wolf spewed words of devotion and love to her. But, now here was a man and his goal was to see her nude.

Her hands went to the clasp of her bra and she slowly stripped it away from her body, her head already growing fuzzy and her body warm as the wine began its gentle influence over her. When the bra was finally removed, she fought the urge to cross her arms over the plump mounds, but was stopped in her tracks when Seto stood up and moved towards her, his blue eyes now focused on her nipples.

Seto had seen many nude women. Hell, he could have his pick of the debutantes that were constant fixtures at his company's functions, but he was not interested in any of them. No, he wanted this beautiful woman before him. His hands rested on her slender hips and he pulled her forward so that her breasts were crushed against his chest. Kagome gasped at the sudden contact and felt his lips brush her forehead.

He felt her lean into his tender kiss and decided to move down and sample her sweet lips. It was clear to him that she was very relaxed and that would make his seduction of her all that much easier. When he touched his lips to hers, Seto felt her arms come up and wrap around his neck, pulling him closer for an even longer and sweeter kiss. And when her tongue gently touched his, his body began to shake as his desire for her grew into a blazing inferno.

Kagome nearly yelped as Seto's hands tightened and pulled her even closer. But, she really didn't mind, especially when he moved from her mouth, down her neck, and to her aching breasts.

As his tongue wrapped around her already tightened nipple, Kagome's head tilted back and her hands moved to his hair, pulling his head to her and encouraging him to take more of her breast into his mouth. Clearly, he wanted the same because soon his mouth was devouring most of her breast.

Kagome's eyes opened quickly when she felt his hands removing her panties, and she wondered if the man hadn't planned all of this from the first moment he had started to watch her and Yumi's game. When his fingers came into contact with her already swollen nether lips, she groaned and allowed her grip on his hair to tighten.

Seto could feel the slickness that told him she was more than ready for him to take her. In fact, he had barely touched her and she had already coated his index finger. Pulling his mouth away from her breast, he pulled back slightly and quickly lifted her into his arms.

Kagome wrapped her arms around his neck and sighed happily when she felt the cool silk on her hot skin. She looked over at her companion and watched as he unbuckled his belt and slid his pants off of his body. Her eyes widened when she saw that he was already at full attention and when he removed his boxers, she could honestly say that he was the biggest male she had even seen. Hell, he had Inu Yasha and Miroku beaten by a mile. She could not wait to tell Sango.

Seto moved onto the bed, his hand moving to her thigh. Running his hand lightly up the silky skin, he spread her legs and looked at her open body, marveling at how beautiful she was.

Kagome blushed as she took in his intense gaze upon her soaking core. When he moved to lie between her legs, the blush deepened and she waited for the first touch of tongue to clit. When it came, her breath hitched and she arched her back. Never before had anything felt so good.

Seto closed his eyes and savored the flavor of his new woman. He would take great joy in dominating not only his competition when he dueled, but he would also dominate Kagome in the bedroom and she would enjoy it. He would show her that behind closed doors, he could be a totally different man and would gladly treat her like the treasure that she was. In public, he would teach her how to be cold and indifferent to those beneath her, and that was basically everyone.

As his mouth grew demanding, Kagome's legs parted even wider and she felt his tongue stab into her body. Her stomach tightened and she gritted her teeth as the first wave of pleasure began to crest and suddenly, she was flung into a mind-shattering orgasm that left her breathless.

He felt her inner muscles clench his tongue and to him, it was the most erotic thing he had done in a long time. Her pleasure was his pleasure and now, he would take his release and show her what it meant to be Seto Kiba's lover.

Kagome felt his cock at her entrance and looked up to see him staring down at her. At first, she was shocked that things had gone this far, and now, it was too late to back out, even if she wanted to. When his lips came down upon hers, he thrusted and buried himself deeply within her body. Thankfully, she was no longer a virgin and was relieved that it didn't hurt. She supposed that she should thank Inu Yasha for getting them stuck in that cave a while back and taking advantage of the alone time. Of course, he felt horribly guilty about it for several weeks, saying that he didn't mean to take advantage of her, but she wasn't upset about it. She was just glad that it was done and over with.

Now, as Seto began to deep and steady rhythm, Kagome allowed her hips to come up and greet his, their eyes never straying from the other. Their bodies were slick with sweat and they tumbled across the sheets, taking turns on top until finally Seto rolled her onto her back and lifted her leg over his shoulder.

He didn't bother to ask her if she were comfortable. Instead, he gritted his teeth as he thrust as hard as he could back into her willing body and heard her cry out his name. He closed his eyes and savored the sound of his name coming from her mouth and vowed to give her enough reasons to say it often, especially in the bedroom.

Kagome felt the familiar tightening and felt his hand grip her leg as he let loose a strangled cry of relief. She felt her own finish as his hot seed bathed her insides and began to sob as the pleasure became too much.

Seto looked down at his lover and watched as she climaxed. Tears were streaming down her face and he leaned down to kiss them away; one by one.

As she began to relax, she could feel that he was not as large as he had been and looked up into his face. Instead of the smirk she thought that she would see, a smile was upon his lips and he bent his head to kiss her tenderly.

She wrapped her arms around his neck and accepted his kiss, but then allowed her eyes to widen as she felt him grow hard once more. She looked down and then back up at him, only to see that smirk that she had come to know. Without a word, he began again, and she knew that it would be a long time before she was allowed to sleep.

~*~

Seto shook his head in disgust as he watched Joey Wheeler and Yugi Muto talk. It seemed that even though Wheeler had broken his arm, he was intent on still playing. Well, he would be gone soon enough.

When he heard his name called, he turned and wrapped his arm around Kagome's waist. It had been nearly three months since he and Kagome had the first of many incredible nights together and he was eager to show her his devotion by defeating Wheeler in a humiliating way. As she leaned up to kiss him, she whispered, “Make him suffer.”

Yes, that was his Kagome. She had become vicious during his battles and was one of his two biggest supporters. He patiently taught her about the game and was shocked to learn that she was a very good student. So good that on a few occasions, she had nearly managed to defeat him. Now, as he made his way up to where he was supposed to stand, he looked back down to see Mokuba and Kagome cheering him on. That was his family. And one day, his Kagome would be holding his heir.

Turning, he glared at Wheeler and snapped, “Let's go. I don't have all day.” He watched as the blond punk simply shrugged and gave him a wide grin.

“What's wrong, Kaiba? Afraid to let that pretty little sweetheart see you lose to me?” Joey jeered, a large grin plastered on his face.

And that was the statement that caused Seto to unleash several powerful attacks that sent Joey Wheeler's life points spiraling to zero in what had been declared as the quickest duel in duel monsters history.

As he stepped off of the platform, Seto glanced over his shoulder to see Wheeler staring at his cards with a look of complete disbelief. A smirk adorned his face as he snapped, “Don't call her 'sweetheart' ever again. A punk like you could never handle such a woman, nor will you ever get the chance.”

Kagome approached him and threw her arms around him as Mokuba congratulated him on his victory. As they left the arena, Seto took in a deep breath and sighed. His father had been wrong. He was not a loser and had the girl, company, money, and victories in dueling to prove it. Life was great.

Kagome could not help but grin as she walked beside her boyfriend. Being the girlfriend of Seto Kaiba certainly had its advantages. Sure, when she moved into the lush home with him and his younger brother, she got to share that wonderful room with the balcony, but she also received a scholarship from his company and would start at the university in the early fall. He even knew about her duties in the feudal era and had told her that after all he had seen, he believed her and wouldn't prevent her from completing her tasks, upon the condition that should she be seriously harmed, she would discontinue her task. Well....he didn't have to know everything, now did he? It wasn't like he told her everything, either.

When they arrived at Kaiba Corp., Seto led Kagome to a large testing room and showed her the latest in dueling arenas. She gasped and watched as he pulled his deck out and demonstrated the new holographic images that his company had made.

A sly smile crossed her lips and she pulled out her own deck. Giving her lover a smile, she innocently asked, “Feel up to a game of duel monsters, Seto?”

He knew she was up to something and arched his eyebrow. Not being one to walk away from a challenge, he accepted. Kagome grinned and quickly said, “Same rules that you set up the day we met apply. Get ready to get naked.”

As the two lovers began their sexually charged duel, a large figure stepped away from the large glass windows and began walking towards the exit. As he reached the door, Mokuba's voice hit his ears.

“Wait! I am sure that my brother would want to show you what we have come up with.” He said, his tone urgent. He knew that Seto didn't want to lose this man's account, and would be angry that he allowed the man to leave.

“I have seen all that you have to offer and you may tell your brother that he has my account. Now, if you will excuse me, I must return and attend to my own family. Good day.” The man said, and walked through the door that his assistant held open for him.

As his driver drove through the city, the man's hand reached over and grasped the phone that rested next to the window. He dialed a familiar number and when it was picked up, he smirked and said, “Jaken, get me all the information you can about duel monsters. It seems I have just found a new way to dominate those beneath me and I want to make sure that I know everything there is to know about the game, including those who are considered to be the best in the game.”

Hanging up the phone, Sesshomaru looked out the window and nodded in satisfaction. In the feudal era, battles were won with swords, and now, they were won with cards, and he would prove that he still had what it took to be considered the best. Yes, he would be just as victorious and feared now, as he had been back then.
