Chapter III

“Do I taste like a miko?”

Kagome, according to the plan she’d made, was going to lift her head up and softly kiss everyone’s favorite demon lord. This would there by distract him from remembering she shared a name with a miko and let him completely focus on her. The light kiss would drive him wild and he’d be unable to focus on anything but her. This would allow her to challenge him further and make sure that he was the perfect male for her.

Unfortunately for her, Kagome didn’t realize that Sesshoumaru went by no one’s plans but his own.

The words were barely out her mouth when Sesshoumaru consumed it with his own, drawing her body tighter into his own. Kagome gasped in pleasure, allowing Sesshoumaru to probe her mouth his tongue, letting his hands roam her body. She moaned in his mouth when he raked his claws down her stomach and thighs and back up again. ‘Two can play that game.’ She thought devilishly. She wrapped a leg around his waist and drew him closer, causing the demon to growl in pleasure. By this time, Sesshoumaru had her backed against a tree for better support, not knowing if he could (or wanted to) keep them vertical much longer.

“Kagome, where exactly do you think you are going?” Sesshoumaru questioned huskily as Kagome tried, to the best of her ability, to slide away from him. She took a moment to bask in the pleasure of hearing her name in his lips before answering.

“Well, you seemed to desire a miko so much-”

She was cut off when Sesshoumaru, once again, wrapped his claws around her waist and pushed her (not so gently) against the tree. Kagome couldn’t help but be turned on when his eyes crawled over her body. Finally, his golden, red rimmed eyes settled on her own.

“I think I’ve made it clear,” He murmured in her ear. “Just precisely who it is I desire.”

“Not to me.” Kagome retorted, trying to get back some control of the situation.

Sorry to say, Kagome didn’t realize that Sesshoumaru only allowed himself to be in control at all times. And this time was no different.

“Allow me to remedy the problem.”

Sesshoumaru captured her mouth with his again, this time enhancing the kiss by running his hand up and down her torso, giving her breast a lusty squeeze as he went by. Kagome gasped, again allowing Sesshoumaru full access to her mouth. He smirked in his own head. ‘Too easy.’ His tongue once again probed her mouth, which Kagome tried to focus on. That is, until his hands went lower and pressed against her sex. That earned him a moan that almost sent Sesshoumaru over the edge. Kagome desperately tried (and failed) to concentrate on Sesshoumaru’s roaming hands, his mouth on hers, and his body pressing tighter to her own. Finally, she just gave up and let the pleasures consume her completely.

Exactly what Sesshoumaru wanted to happen.

He earned himself a frown of discontent when he took his mouth away from hers but had her under his spell again when he ran his tongue along her neck and nipped his way up and down her shoulders. She inhaled sharply when Sesshoumaru ran his finger along the nipple of one breast while at the same time squeezing the other.

“Sesshoumaru.” Kagome breathed when he kissed her neck.

The sound of his name on her lips meant that enough was enough for Sesshoumaru. He wanted her and he wanted her NOW. Gently, though the Beast in him was demanding he take her right there against the tree, he kissed his way back up to her ear, and whispered to her, “Submit to me.” He raked his claws down her body again to emphasize his words.

‘YES! YES! YES!’ The Beast inside her roared gleefully.

Kagome, taking a moment to recover from the feel of his hands, opened her mouth and murmured…

“No.”

Needless to say, you could hear a pin drop.

The Beast in her was actually silent in shock. Kagome smiled at the look of amazement and confusion on Sesshoumaru’s face. She might’ve actually laughed if Sesshoumaru hadn’t slammed his hips against hers and thrust his pelvis against hers over and over, agonizingly slow. She gasped and had to actually grab onto his shoulders to keep her knees from buckling beneath her while at the same time fighting back her Beast as her eyes pooled red.

“No?” He inquired, growling the word out slowly. And as soon as the little word passed his lips, he actually stopped moving against her and backed away. Kagome had to use every bit of control she had to keep from grabbing him and forcing him back on her.

Sesshoumaru had to back himself away from her. If he hadn’t, he really would’ve taken her against that tree, and her “no” be damned to hell and back. And a part of him (well, most of him) wanted to do just that. But the Lord of the West had never been denied anything for any reason. He HAD to know why she would refuse him when he’d just had her on the brink of ripping his clothes off.

“No…” Kagome repeated, somewhat uncertainly this time. Now, the Beast in her was howling in disappointment and horror, unable to even completely form words.

“Do you care to explain yourself?” Sesshoumaru grumbled, allowing irritation to seep into his voice. His eyes flickered to her hips that were shifting around, obviously trying to ease the ache in her abdomen. Sesshoumaru had to bite back the groan in his throat as he imagined himself in between those legs of hers, easing that ache himself.

Over and over and over again.

Kagome watched in fascination as Sesshoumaru eyed her hips, even after he’d been angry at her refusal. And another deliciously evil thought crept into her mind. If she played her cards right, she could make this male completely and utterly hers. The very thought of this powerful and erotic demon at her beck and call almost made Kagome squeal in delight.

“I said no because you haven’t proven yourself to me completely.”

For the first time in centuries, Sesshoumaru, Lord of Demons and Prince of the Western Lands, tilted his head back and laughed.

He hadn’t proven himself completely? Sesshoumaru couldn’t believe it. He had the entire West at his knees and yet he hadn’t proven himself enough to her. ‘High-maintenance bitch.’ He thought, desire clear in his eyes. ‘This woman intrigues me to no end.’

“Very well, Kagome. I will continue to prove myself to you. But be warned, curiosity alone keeps me from ripping your clothes off here and now.”

The desire in his eyes made Kagome shiver in pleasure at the thought, but she knew she had to retort if she was really going to make this male hers.

“You try that and I’ll rip your eyes out.”

Sesshoumaru smirked and nearly laughed again. Naturally, Sesshoumaru liked his women submissive, but the independent nature of this woman intrigued him to no end. And he wasn’t too worried about her right now. Before the night was over, he’d make her the most docile creature ever. He could easily deal with her self-sufficient nature for the moment.

“Come now Kagome, there will be time enough for that sort of foreplay later. Tell me how may I prove myself now so that I may get you into my bed all the quicker?”

Kagome blessed her cool-natured demon body. If she’d been human, she would’ve blushed beet red from her hair to her toes.

“I suppose we’ll just have to see about that. Come on, follow me.”

She jumped into the tree tops and sped off, smug at leaving him in her dust. She was basking in the thought of him being frustrated at her leaving him behind when she heard:

“You ought to slow down a bit.”

She glanced to her side only to see Sesshoumaru keeping up with her effortlessly.

‘Gonna be hard making him submit.’ Her Beast noted warily. ‘He’s a lot stronger than we thought.’ Kagome frowned to herself, wondering if she’d taken things too far when they made it to the spot she’d sighted earlier. ‘We’ll see about that.’ She thought, landing on the ground. Sesshoumaru, next to her instantly, smelled the air.

“A dragon?” He inquired with a raised eyebrow.

“Too much for you to handle?” Kagome mocked. He snorted.

“Hardly.”

“Good, the objective is simple. You kill the dragon. Only you can’t use any helpful tools.” She glanced pointedly at the swords at his side. Without hesitation, Sesshoumaru started forward.

“And no magic either!” She called.

He didn’t even turn around.

Sesshoumaru paused at the hole in the side of the cliff, knowing the dragon would scent him out soon. Only one thing bothered him about this. It was too easy. Somehow he’d expected her to be a little more…mischievous.

‘Who cares?’ His Beast thundered at him. ‘Kill the dragon and TAKE THE WOMAN!’

Good point.

Just then, the dragon walked out of the cave. And Sesshoumaru could’ve hit himself. ‘You get what you ask for.’ He grumbled to himself. The dragon lumbered out of the cave with not one, but three heads. Still, that wouldn’t have been so bad…until two identical looking dragons trudged out after him. Sesshoumaru turned around to scowl at the obviously amused female.

“I do not suppose you wish to tell me exactly which dragon you want dead?” He snapped.

Kagome positively howled with laughter. “No!” She managed to chuckle out. “But I will give you a hint, dear Sesshoumaru. The dragon I want dead isn’t susceptible to poison. Good luck.”

‘Oh, she’s going to pay for that.’ Sesshoumaru thought murderously as he began to dodge multicolored flames shooting from the roaring dragons’ mouths. It was well known that it took an incredible amount of poison to kill a dragon anyway. He could be here forever trying to figure it out. So it didn’t help his mood when he turn and saw Kagome walking away.

“Where are you going?” He growled at her, slicing though the necks of one of the dragon heads only to have to twist to keep from being snapped in half by another.

“For a walk.” Kagome waved to him. “If you live up to your reputation, you should be able to find me. Unless, of course, if you take so long you lose my scent. Happy hunting, Sesshoumaru.”
Sesshoumaru’s eyes bled red as that female (‘Your female,’ His Beast insisted) turned her back on him and giggled. He smirked and turned toward the monsters at hand. Unfortunately, Kagome had greatly underestimated him. Both his strength and his over whelming desire to have her utterly and completely.

O:o:O

Kagome could never suppress her giggles for more than a few minutes. How much fun it’d been to outsmart the Demon Lord! ‘I should’ve been a fox demon!’ She thought with delight, doubling over in giggles again.

‘Such a waste…’ Her Beast cried mournfully.

Kagome scowled. “Oh, shut up.” She snapped at it. “That was fun. And besides, it’s not my fault if he wasn’t worth it. Perhaps if he catches up with me, which I doubt he will, I’ll give him the time of day. But I highly doubt that…” Kagome trailed off when she realized her Beast wasn’t speaking to her anymore. Instead, it’d been replaced with Instinct. The problem was, she’d used Beast more that Instinct lately, so she was a little rusty. What was it trying to tell her?

She thought hard…it was right beyond her grasp…

“I suppose it’s good I caught up with you then, wench.” A voice whispered right in her ear.

Kagome gasped as her heart jumped into her throat and turned around, almost falling in the process. Sesshoumaru’s arms snapped out, catching her wrists right before she toppled to the ground. Kagome stared at the demon’s eyes. They were bright red, the color of his Beast and of lust. Neither of those things worried her, she’d seen them before. There was only one problem…

The red wasn’t fading back into gold.

Sesshoumaru’s hand tightened around Kagome’s wrists slightly, just enough to prevent her from escaping. Kagome swallowed thickly.

“Hello Sesshoumaru.” She greeted brightly.

Sesshoumaru’s eyebrow cocked up; otherwise his expression stayed the same.

“I killed the dragon you wanted, Kagome.” He murmured calmly.

“Oh?” Kagome’s voice cracked under the intensity of his gaze. “Um, are you sure it’s the right one? Perhaps you should go back and be sure.”

“Oh, I’m quite sure, dear Kagome.” Sesshoumaru whispered, never letting her eyes out of his sight. “I should be, seeing as I killed all of them.”

Kagome’s jaw dropped. There was no way! Absolutely NO WAY he killed all three of those dragons! They were a special clan that, after you killed one, the strength of the ones left doubled. (A little fact her human mind had actually been important for.) It hadn’t even been twenty minutes yet! And yet…she knew he couldn’t be lying, she would’ve smelled it in his scent.

“So tell me, Kagome.” Sesshoumaru said softly after watching awe, fear, and lust pass across her face. “Have I passed your test?”

Kagome’s breath caught in her throat. There was NO WAY she was going to be able to conquer this demon! He made her feel weak kneed and the way he was looking at her…Butterflies danced wildly in her stomach. The thought of someone being so completely in control of her made her heart dance with fear. That same reason was why she was a demon now, because she made a stupid mistake as a human. She was not going to let the same thing happen now! She had to get away from this male who, while being wildly attractive, had the probability of becoming her greatest weakness.

‘He won’t make me weak.’ Kagome thought with determination.

Her Beast just moaned in sorrow at the thought of being split from this demon again.

“Well, Sesshoumaru, there is one more-hey!” All of a sudden, Kagome was staring at the ground as Sesshoumaru threw her over his shoulder and soared into the air. “Whoa! Wait!” Kagome desperately tried to contact her Beast, but it wasn’t having it. And without that extra strength, Kagome had no way to over power Sesshoumaru, especially in the air.

“Quite squirming, woman.” Sesshoumaru ordered. Kagome just growled at him, but became still. She knew that she probably survive a drop from this high, but the probability of supporting a broken arm didn’t appeal to her at all.

So she just hung on for dear life and waited until Sesshoumaru finally landed, walked inside a cave and dumped her on the floor. She was about to give him a mouthful when she got a look around. It was really, quite beautiful. There were animal skins lining the floor, making it seem like a giant bed. Kagome could smell a hot spring farther back around the corner. And after taking a closer look at the walls, she could see that it looked like some one had literally clawed this cave out of the mountain. After taking everything in, she opened her mouth again to give him a peace of her mind at the way she’d been treated.

But the lecture died in her throat.

Sesshoumaru had taken off his armor and the top part of his kimono. This left him bare-chested, clothed only in the bottom half of his kimono. Kagome’s head swam at the scent he was giving off.

Sesshoumaru smirked as he watched her eyes crawl up his body, her mouth partly hanging open. “Kagome.” He growled huskily, walking toward her slowly. He could’ve chucked at the way her eyes got huge the closer to her he came, but that would’ve defeated his purpose. He needed to be serious now and own her completely, or she’d never yeild to him long enough for him to make her his mate.

And he was determined to have her.

Sesshoumaru knelt down, leaned over and kissed her. At the same time, he pressed her legs down beneath him, running his claws up them as he did, earning himself a throaty moan. Letting one claw roam up her stomach and down her thigh, he began to rip the kimono away from her body, only to come into contact with her future undergarments. Sesshoumaru tilted his head at Kagome’s bra, confused as to its purpose but loving the way it made her breasts look at the same time.

A giggle bubbling up in Kagome’s throat at his confusion quickly turned into a moan as he raked his claws harder against her skin.

‘No matter,’ He decided. The strange undergarments could wait for a moment; he had something devilish planned for his cunning little minx. Kissing his way from her stomach up her chest, Sesshoumaru gently placed Kagome’s arms above her head as if they were of no matter. To his secret amusement, she laid them there with no hesitation, consumed with his kisses on her body. Sesshoumaru had to concentrate on her not noticing what his hands were doing and competing his game at the same time.

Kagome was in pleasure heaven and was content to stay there. That is, until she heard two soft clinks. Then, her suspicion grew when Sesshoumaru stopped his pleasure giving to grin mischievously. When Kagome moved to ask him what was so funny, she was stopped.

Or rather, her arms were stopped.

Kagome had to bend rather flexibly (thank you again, demon body) but finally could see what the problem was. Somehow, Kagome had missed the shackles that were connected to the stone wall because they were now secure around her wrists. Kagome’s eyes bled red. How dare he?! She growled and was about to yell at him until his ears bled when he kissed the inside of her left thigh. Kagome exhaled sharply in pleasure. The smell of her arousal made Sesshoumaru groan.

“Kagome,” Sesshoumaru rumbled against her skin. “Hush for a moment. I have something of importance to tell you.”

Kagome shuttered at the promise his voice held.

“You, Kagome, are going to learn a very important lesson tonight.” Sesshoumaru began. He noticed, with some satisfaction, that her hips shifted ever so slightly from lack of touch. ‘Let her ache.’ He decided. ‘It’ll help her pay attention.’

“You see, Kagome, for some reason that I haven’t figured out yet, you are a very independent creature.” Unable to keep his hands off her (plus his Beast was demanding he touch her), he allowed a single claw to trace its way up her thigh until it came agonizingly close to her nether regions, and then he stopped. After being rewarded with a soft groan, he continued.

“I can already see that you would fight me for dominance if I were to simply mate you the normal way. So, unfortunately, you’ve forced me to drastic measures.” The glint in his eyes made it clear he wasn’t sorry about the situation at all. “In conclusion, my cunning, devious, delicious little minx, if you won’t submit to me willingly, I will just have to make you need my touch on your body that you will HAVE to submit to me. I will make you ache and burn for my kiss that you won’t even think about refusing me again.”

He bent his head down and kissed her bare stomach, making her gasp. Then, he sighed in exasperation.

“I can sense you aren’t getting it, so I will just have to explain it to you better.”

In less than a second, Sesshoumaru’s entire body was over hers, only a breath from his skin touching hers. He positioned himself so that her eyes locked with his and followed him when he bent down to whisper in her ear. Kagome actually forgot to breath, realizing that his chest was only a stone throw away from being pressed against hers. So his next words didn’t help the situation.

“Kagome,” Sesshoumaru growled huskily, grabbing all of Kagome’s attention (as if he didn’t already have it). “First, I’m going to bring you so close to the edge of pleasure, you’ll be able to taste it. Then, I’ll do it again, just because it pleases me to see you squirm from the lack of my touch. I’ll do this as many times as I need until you yield to me, I’m incredibly patient. Then, I will take you once, only out of respect for your innocence. Then, I will ravish your body and take you as my mate. And once you’re completely and utterly exhausted, I will take you again. I want you to remember, Kagome, that from this moment forward: You. Are. Mine. Let there be no question about it.”

Sesshoumaru smirked when her heart rate sped up to the rate of a hummingbird’s.

“Breathe, Kagome. You will be unable to learn your lesson if you are dead.”

He began eyeing her strange undergarments again when she spoke his name. “Sesshoumaru.” She half murmured, half groaned. Sesshoumaru nearly growled at the sound of it. He’d never get tired of the sound of his name on her lips.

“Yes?”

“I submit.” She breathed as he began playing with the cups of her bra.

Sesshoumaru couldn’t help but chuckle devilishly. “No, my crafty mate. You will not be able to get out of your punishment that easily. You will learn the hard way that you never, ever challenge this Sesshoumaru.”

With that, Sesshoumaru ripped her bra in half.
