Dangerosly In Love

Chapter 3: Deceit Revealed



Zimorah sobbed in Sango’s arms for a few minutes. Miroku wanted to inquire about why she was crying but Sango motioned for him not to. Before he could warn InuYasha,he already started in on Zimorah.

“I told you to leave him alone didn’t I?”
“ InuYasha!” Kagome pulled on his arm, “Don’t do that to her now!”

“No, no.” Zimorah said, wiping her pretty face. “Hes right. I should have stayed far away but I-I couldn’t, my heart fell for him the minute I set eyes on him.”

“We are speaking of Sesshomaru-right?” Miroku asked, clearly not understand her love for him.
“Yes. There is a side to him that noone knows but me. Hes so gentle, so calming and his smile...” Zimorah stopped when she realized how they were looking at her.

“ Smile. You mean he does that?” Miroku asked.
“ You are so not helping”. Sango whispered to him.

Zimorah took a long breath before entering her hut, for she know she had to face her grandmother. She stopped short and turned to InuYasha.
“You know InuYasha, you have to know that deep down, it is not you that Sesshomaru hates. In a way, you are a painful reminder of his father leaving him”.

“My father leavin’, as you put it, ain’t my fault!” He frowned, almost growling at her.

“I know that, I’ve told him many times that you didn’t ask to be born. That is something that your brother must work out within himself.”

“Yeah, well I doubt he’ll ever stop hating me or my mother and shes gone now.” InuYasha had sorrow in his voice.

“Hes just so bitter but you have to understand how he must have felt when your father left”. Zimorah explained.

“ Father did not leave him!” InuYasha snapped. “At least Sesshomaru has memories of him. I sure as hell don’t!”

“ Yes, but all he can remember is him “leaving” because of you and your mother. Perhaps his mother put her on spin on things, I cannot say. But I know how hurt he was when he learned of your existence.”

“Hmph.” InuYasha turned away with his arms folded.
“ Listen”. She said softly. “ All I ask, is that you try to see things through Sesshomaru’s eyes. In no way, shape or form do I agree with his cold ways but I know that hes been walking around with this pain for some time now.”

With that, Zimorah entered her hut. Her friends in disbelief of her unconditional love for a man like that. The fact that her life was hanging in the balance, the fact that the very man she loves may kill her if he learns of her secret, did not change a thing for Zimorah. When Zimorah walked in, she noticed her grandmother performing a spell. She knew it was to protect her but told her grandmother to lift it.
“ He will kill you child!”
“ That is a chance I’ll have to take. I will not have anyone bring harm to him”.
“Zimorah, are you sick?”
“ No, ma. Can you not see that he has been hurt enough!?”
“ Would serve him right.” She answered cooly.” All the evil, the destruction that cursed creature has caused in his many years roaming this earth, hes got it coming.” She did not understand this young woman’s love for him.

“ Has anyone ever thought to wonder why my Sesshomaru is the way he is?” Zimorah blurted out.
“ Your Sessh-“ She couldn’t even get the sentence out. “ You let that filthy demon touch you?”
She knew the answer when her granddaughter turned away from her. “What have you done girl?”

“What noone else bothered to do, love him.”

What else was there to say. Zimorah’s home was quiet. The rest of te day seemed to go by fast. As soon as the evening hit, Zimorah took off to tell him of her secret. Sango begged her not to go but Zimorah knew she couldn’t have him roaming the village, looking for her. She sat there, by their favorite tree, waiting for him. She was twisting one of her dreads again, she was so nervous. She watched Sesshomaru as he floated towards her. Instantly, he knew something was wrong.
“ I’ll be fine. Do not concern yourself, its nothing serious” She lied. Zimorah was too afraid to just spit it out. He knew it was something but decided to let it go.

As the night went on, the two were sitting down, Zimorah made herself comfortable, snuggled in his arms. All she wanted to do was love him, to forget about all the things her friends said about him, the secrets and the lies. All she wanted was his kiss, his touch, his love. Thinking about how much she wanted him, she made the first move. She turned to face him by the look in his eyes, she knew he wanted her to.
Zimorah leaned in and kised him, teasing his upper lip with her tongue. He caressed her face as she kissed him again. She began to massage the back of his neck with tips of her fingers.He let out a low growl as his eyes closed.
“ I found yet another spot huh?” She whispered in his ear.
He pulled her on top of him while still sitting upright and bit her neck, she jumped but wanted more. She slowly began to grind on him, teasing him...he squeezed her hips. Zimorah gently nipped at his ear, knowing how sensitive his ears were.

“ I want you to take me.” Sesshomaru demanded as he laid down, pulling at her clothing.

Zimorah bit his lip as she stripped him. His heart beat faster as she explored his broad chest with her full lips, followed by her well-skilled tongue. She dipped her tongue in and around his naval, loving the way he squirmed at the feel of her. After making her way down, she placed his full grown manhood into her warm, inviting mouth. He licked his lips as she played with the tip. Before she could fully consume him the way she planned,

“I want to be inside you”. He moaned. “ I need to feel you now.”

She was all wet at the sound of his voice. Watching her slowly undress was enough to make him want to pounce on her but he gave her control. Zimorah knew she had him, she took her time, climbing back on top of him. She eased him into her world . As she began her back anrth rth movements, he ran his claws down her back. She loved the feel of his unearthly hands all over her. The more she moved, the deeper he slid into her. Her warm, tight world was almost too much for him. This experience was so beautiful, so intense , never had he even imagined a rhythm so strong.
“Zimorah” He moaned out, gripping her hips tightly.
So good, he felt so good inside her. She was short of breath, her head was spinning. As her body started to shake, she whispered his name
“Sesshomaru.” At what seemed to be at the same time, the couple finally exploded. Both light-headed, trembling and drenched in one another’s juices. Zimorah’s body gave out, she collapsed on him.
He held her close and listened to her heart beat. Running his fingers through her dreads.
“ I am in love with you” He whispered. That was the hardest thing he has ever done.

Zimorah looked up at him, she wanted to cry. She knew just how hard that was for him.
“I wa lov love with you since the first day I set eyes on you”. She answered him.

“ I tried to fight it. That is why I stayed away so long after the night we first met.” He paused. “I can no longer hold my peace, you are my equal, you are mine”

“ No matter what happens, I’ll always be yours and you mine.” She declared to him.


Early the next morning, Zimorah quietly got up, she’d been watching him sleep for awhile now. She kissed his lips, ever so softly so she wouldn’t wake him. He knew she had to leave in the morning. ‘He is in love with me’ she thought. ‘I will not continue to lie to him, I’ll tell him tonight, he should hear it from me’. Zimorah headed back to her village, pondering how she was going to break the news to Sesshomaru. Her nerves were all over the place.

Just as Sesshomaru planned to leave the place he slept, he was greeted by a mysterious man. He was full of negative, evil energy. Light seemed never to touch this man. His hair was long and black.

“What is that you want now?” He asked the man. By his tone, these two were not friends.

“Well now Sesshomaru, that was some show you put on last night!”

“If you value your breath, I suggest you state your point or walk away.” He answered cooly, still walking.

“You are more like your father then you think Sesshomaru”. The man said with an evil laugh.
Sesshomaru stopped short in his tracks, getting irritated.
“And just what it is that you are speaking of Naraku, I have no time to play with a lowly half demon such as yourself.”

Naraku unleashed an evil laugh. “ Hmmm, I’m speaking of that young, brown vixen that had you pinned and howling like a dog in heat last night!”
Sesshomaru could feel himself getting angry, his eyes were slightly glowing.
“How dare you speak of her that way” He said with a nasty growl.

“ Well, well, well. I never thought I’d see the great evil know as Sesshomaru getting all worked up about a lowly MORTAL”. Naraku spit out.

“ She is no mortal. Know of what you speak before you open your mouth Naraku”. He started walking again.

“” Ah but she is, if doubt is there because of her “powers”, let me inform you that her type of sorcery has been in her family for many generations.”

Sesshomaru walked away shaking his head in disbelief. Naraku followed him.
“ Think about it Sesshomaru. Why is it that shes always defending humans? Why is she dwelling with them ? Have you ever seen a demon such as her?”

“What of her scent?” He asked trying so hard to keep his cool manner.
“That damn wench Kagura helped with that one, just a mere spell” Naraku laughed and laughed
“ I thought the older son of the Great Dog-Demon could figure that one out!” Naraku paused.
“Well don’t be angry, she did it only to receive your love.”

Sesshomaru took a deep breath. “ After I deal with Zimorah, be prepared to loose your life”.
He warned Naraku.


He was so angry, everything began to add up the more he thought about it. After he opened up to her, shared things he kept locked away in his heart for years. Never had Sesshomaru felt so betrayed, exposed, naked to the world. ‘Everything she said to me was a lie’
He thought. For the first time, he completely lost his cool. By the time he reached her village, he full of rage. The air, thick with eerie tension. His silver man flowing wildly, eyes the color of freshly, drawn blood and his heart black as ever. Sango was the f one one to see him. Her blood ran cold, she stood in the middle of the village, her body paralyzed with fear. He grabbed her by her neck.
“Bring her to me”. He hissed.
“P-Please, Sesshomaru, don’t hurt her”. Sango whispered, his grip was so strong, thats all she could let out.

“Where is she?!” He tightened his grip. Sango passed out. He tossed her to the ground like a rag doll. “No matter, I will sniff her out “.

All the villagers gathered into their homes for fear of being killed. He reached her hut but could not enter because of the spiritual barrier her grandmother put up.

“Zimorah!” He yelled out. “Show yourself wench!”
To spite her grandmother’s plea, she took a long breath and stepped outside. Her real scent, though still sweet, through him off. As she raised her head and saw him glaring at her with such hatred, his crimson eyes shooting through her, her heart dropped. Still, Zimorah showed no fear.
“ As I once told your brother, I’m nobody’s wench.” She boldly glared back at him.
“Your fearlessness shall be the death of you girl!” He growled out. He quickly jumped up to attack her.

InuYasha blocked his strike in mid-air.
“You have no business here little brother”. Sesshomaru spit out.
“I ain’t gonna let you kill her”. InuYasha snapped at him.

Sesshomaru, still in raged, threw his brother to the ground. He grabbed Zimorah by her hair, she didn’t even whimper. Wrapping his hand around her neck, he looked into her eyes.
“ Give me one damn reason why I should not take your life” He demanded. With his other hand raised, she could see the venom dripping from his claws.
Tears began to fall from her eyes, It wasn’t the fact that she was afraid, it was that she hurt him and this was the only way he knew to express it. Zimorah shut her eyes. She couldn’t bare to see the man she loved so much look at her with such contempt .

“There are no words-I’m sorry, I’m so sorry I hurt you Sesshomaru.” She looked at him one last time, she knew he was going to kill her. “I didn’t lie when I told you that I love you.” She paused. “I was yours the day I met you”.

She did hit a nerve, he still loved her also but his rage was so intense, it blinded him. He was ready to strike, his hand was shaking, he knew he had to do it before he got soft. Sesshomaru really didn’t want to kill her, his heart ached for her but she had to pay for her deceit.
He hit Zimorah, while venom was in her system, she was still alive. He hovered over her to strike her again, allowing one tear to fall for her. The piercing scream of a little girl, stopped him in mid strike.
The young girl was Rin. For the first time, she was afraid of Sesshomaru. This child that he took in, looked at him as though he was the monster all the other human thought he was. She jumped back when he reached for her. Rin ran over to Zimorah and embraced her. Zimorah in pain but very much alive. It hurt Sesshomaru to see Rin look at him like that, she was like a daughter to him.
“Rin, come, we must be off now” He said, in an almost apologetic tone. He was back to his cool manner. The child looked at him as if he was a stranger. He turned away, feeling guilty for scaring the child. She didn’t want to follow him this time. Rin continued to hold on to Zimorah.

“Its okay, you must go with him”. Zimorah whispered, soothing the young child.
“B-But-“ Rin was still afraid.
“Shhh, you know he would never hurt you child. Now go, he needs you”. Zimorah said as she guided the child towards Sesshomaru. Rin wrapped her small hand around his, still she was looking back at Zimorah. They walked away, disappearing within seconds.

Sango and the others ran to Zimorah’s aid, she was badly hurt and needed to rest. Miroku wondered how she survived being struck by Sesshomaru.
“She should have died, I saw all that venom coming from his claws.” He told Sango after she was through checking on her friend.

“Yes, I know but Zimorah’s very strong, She was powerful when we were little”.
“What kind of sorcery is in her family?” He asked.
“I’m not quite sure, I know it derives from the island her family came from” Sango sighed,
thinking of what COULD have happened. “I’m just glad it protected her”.

“You know, we have to leave son but I fear that Sesshomaru will come back for her”
“No, I don’t think he will” InuYasha interrupted Miroku. “I know my brother, believe or not, he didn’t want to kill her.”

“I couldn’t tell!” Sango snapped.
“ Look, he loves her. I ain’t sayin’ he gonna come back to be with her or nothin’ but I could tee wae was hurtin' for her.”

“The only reason why he didn’t kill her is because of that child that follows him!” Sango snapped again. “I cannot believe that Zimorah still loves that damn demon!!”

“InuYasha may have a point however. Never have I seen Sesshomaru lose his cool like that. Then again, nothing can make a man loose his cool, like a woman.” Miroku said as he stared at Sango.
