Virginity of the Soul

A/N: Look, another update and it hasn't been two years! WOOT.

Virginity of the Soul

5. Heat

The annoying sound of her alarm clock echoed in her bedroom but there was nothing Kagome could do to stop it. Her legs were sore. Well, her core was sore and her legs were simply affected by that. After her phone call with her husband, she remained at Sesshomaru's for a few more hours. By the time she returned home, the sun was lurking on the horizon.

She passed out in the empty bed at four in the morning and now, according to the blaring red numbers, it was eight. She could not remember if there was a reason why Inuyasha was not home. He probably told her last night but she did not hear much of the conversation. Simply thinking about the night she shared with Sesshomaru was enough to spike her arousal.

It was getting out of control.

Kagome rolled her hips and stretched her body. She needed to shut up her fucking alarm before she lost her mind. She inhaled deeply as she sat up in the bed. Her new position gave her enough reach to smack her palm against the button. Silence, pure silence. She sighed, leaning into her pillow and smiled. She did not have to work today and she planned on taking the day to recover.

Unfortunately for Kagome, her little dream day came crashing down rather quickly when she realized an important detail that she had obviously overlooked. Sesshomaru's scent! It was all over her clothes and her body – oh dear, she even laid on the bed without showering! The scent probably was imbedded into the sheets now!

"Shit!"

She hit the mattress beneath her with her fist and ran her fingers through her tangled hair. This was not a terrible situation yet and she had time to fix it. If she took a shower and threw her clothes, along with the sheets, in the drawer Inuyasha would never know. Oh and maybe spray some sort of bleach or whatever on the mattress.

Her heart was pumping fast as she raced to her feet despite the pain. As soon as she landed on the ground, she winced. Damn it. It was a good thing that a night with Sesshomaru was worth all of this. She dragged her body around the bed as she pulled the sheets and bundled them in her arms. She had no idea when Inuyasha was going to be home so she had to hurry.

A few minutes passed but finally, she stood naked in the laundry room with all of her clothes and bedding in the washing machine. Her mind was more at peace while she headed for the shower where she was certain the hot water would hit the spot. Her body ached for a soothing feeling. Despite the stress, happiness filled her heart.

She stepped in the shower, the water gently running over her warm skin. It was wrong what she was doing and yet the more she did it, the less guilty she felt. Although, it make the situation awfully complicated. She liked the physical relationship she was having with Sesshomaru, but it was never going to be more than that.

Inuyasha on the other hand was her husband. Her cheating son of a bitch of a husband, but her husband nonetheless. Would he stop seeing that other woman if she asked? Would she believe him? Probably not. He broke her trust in an unimaginable way and she doubted it could be fixed. Then again, she was one to talk; she was screwing his brother.

She winced; that was pretty bad. Oh, what a sticky mess she got herself into.

On top of that, she promised Sesshomaru that Inuyasha would not touch her again. Although she did not desire a physical relationship with Inuyasha, she was never good at getting out of tricky situations. She did not want to be the girl who was having sex with two people at the same time. It was enough that she was cheating on Inuyasha.

Is this what she wanted? Sleeping with Sesshomaru and staying with Inuyasha? The right thing to do would probably be to end things with Inuyasha but… what if she still loved him?

And saying that the thrill of cheating did not excite her… would be a lie.

Oh what kind of person had she turned into?

-V-

"I'm only your best friend, but fine. Keep secrets from me; I don't care!"

Kanna had her best poker face on. She knew what the little slut was up to and she wanted her to confess it. She needed to hear that she was one step closer to having Inuyasha all for herself.

Kagome was doing her best to avoid Kanna's suspicious glare, but it was getting difficult. The truth was swirling around in her chest, her happiness begging to be shared. It was Kanna. They were best friends since forever. If there was someone she could trust with this secret, it was her right?

"I slept with Sesshomaru." She exhaled. "More than once."

Kanna squealed of joy and she did not even have to fake it. Yes! "Oh you dirty girl," she said with a grin. Kagome was so easily manipulated that it was almost too easy. "Soooo how was it?"

Kagome immediately blushed and looked away. "Well, I mean it was – new."

"Right, you've only done it with Inuyasha." And from what Kanna heard, it was always boring. It was the first reason why Inuyasha came to her. Truly, it was not Kagome's fault that she was so breakable. It was a wonder that Sesshomaru was not bored of her already. Heck, he should have broken her in two by now.

She was no longer a one man kind of girl. "We did things – I mean, with Inuyasha its sweet and you know romantic, but Sesshomaru – he's wild and rough and oh my god I am such a horrible person," Kagome added before burying her face in her knees.

How could she talk about it and sound so goddamn excited?

Kanna brought a hand to Kagome's back and gently rubbed it. "Hey, it's good. Inuyasha is having a lot of fun without you. Why are you feeling guilty for doing the same? You said it yourself: it's wild and rough. Isn't that what all girls want?"

Kagome's blush grew deeper in color. "I mean, it is nice. I just – it's not right. Is it?"

"Honey, if he's doing it, then it's right."

She needed Kagome to keep this up. After all, once Inuyasha saw it with his own two eyes Kanna would have him all for herself. If Kagome ended it now… no, she could not let her stop seeing Sesshomaru.

"When are you gonna see him again?"

"Oh, we don't really plan it. I mean, it sorta happens… when we find ourselves together."

"You mean when Inuyasha is there?"

"Maybe."

Wow, this girl was making it quite easy for Kanna. Apparently, she did not even need to lay a trap for them since they were doing it themselves! What a good girl Kagome was.

"So who's bigger?"

"Kanna!"

"What? It's a perfectly good question!" Frankly, she was curious. Kanna already knew she was getting the better end of the deal but… well it was a juicy little piece of information.

Kagome sighed. "Sesshomaru. Definitively Sesshomaru."

Sesshomaru? Kanna resisted the urge to frown. He could not be that much bigger. Inuyasha had a nice piece of equipment and he used it well. Maybe Kagome simply never realized what Inuyasha had and perhaps if she paid better attention, she would not be losing him.

"See, an upgrade!" she lied through her teeth.

"Okay can we stop talking about this? I don't think I'm gonna stop blushing – ever. And I feel bad."

"Of course," Kanna said with a smile. The last thing she wanted was for Kagome to feel guilty. That goody two shoe could ruin it all at any moment.

Kagome smiled at her friend in gratitude. Sharing her secret was not as terrible as she thought it was going to be. Kanna understood and clearly encouraged her. At least someone was sticking up for her. If it was not for her best friend, Kagome would have never slept with Sesshomaru. She owed her one.

Sesshomaru. She could not help but wonder what he was doing in his office. He was probably thinking about all the furniture they ruined in his apartment. It was such a shame; it really was a nice coffee table. Although, he did not seem to care.

Uh. His office. The one he had in the same building, same floor has her husband. That thought alone was enough to send shocks through her body.

No! Bad Kagome. Thinking was bad. He turned her into some kind of pervert.

The worst of all was that she liked it.

-V-

Inuyasha stared at his computer screen but was unable to concentrate. He never went home. He did plan on it, but when he got there, Kagome was already back. At that moment, he felt like everything about him was suspicious and he refused to go inside. Instead, he headed straight for work for real this time. He showered and changed there and now he was waiting for Kagome.

When he made his decision to not go home, he forgot that most of his work stuff was there. He had to call his wife and lie saying that he did not think he would be there all night and he needed his other briefcase. At first, she appeared hesitant, but then she agreed.

Did she know?

No, she would have yelled.

An uneasy feeling filled him while he waited for his secretary to announce her arrival. He called her forever ago! Why was she taking so long? He sighed in frustration before resting his head on his desk. As if on cue, the buzzer in his office went off.

"Yes?"

"Your wife is here."

"Let her in."

Inuyasha sat up straight and fixed his jacket before pretending to type on his computer. The busier he looked, the less eye contact they would have to make. This was the first time he did not go home after one of his little adventures with Kanna and he did not like it. It was already difficult to lie to Kagome every day but now didn't even bother to go home to her!

He felt like an ass.

"Morning," she said with a shy smile.

The only thought was ran through her mind was, please let me not smell like Sesshomaru. Even though she was not a youkai and did not have the incredible sense of smell, she felt his scent covering every inch of her skin.

When Inuyasha did not get up to greet her, she was grateful.

"Thanks, I really needed that."

"Sure," she said as she put the briefcase down on his desk. "I'm sorry you have to work so much."

At first, she thought he spent the night with his other woman. Now though, she was not sure. He looked like hell as though he had indeed spent the night in the office. It was hard to trust him.

"Will you be home tonight?"

"Of course." He even said no to Kanna when she begged for a repeat. She needed to understand that Kagome was his priority.

"See you tonight, then." Again, she gave him another forced smile before exiting the office.

It was not until she closed the door behind her that she began to breathe easier. She waved at Yura, Inuyasha's secretary, and then made her way to the elevator. She was about half way there when another office caught her attention; Sesshomaru's. Kagome knew for a fact he was in there; he was married to his work.

Temptation was stronger than her will and quickly enough, she found herself in front of his office. She noticed that his secretary was not there which was a good thing. If she was present, she did not know how she would explain what she was doing there.

Kagome shook her head at her foolishness before deciding it was best for her to leave. She turned around ready to head for the elevator when suddenly she heard the door crack open. Before she had a chance to see who it was, her arm was grabbed and she was pulled inside Sesshomaru's office.

He violently smacked her back against his wooden door and grabbed her thighs to force her to wrap her legs around his waist. He took advantages of her little confusion to begin attacking her neck. She stayed slightly dazed until familiar fangs grazed her flesh that she snapped out of it by moaning loudly. The feeling was enough to unleash a puddle of heat in her core.

She dug her fingers in his shoulders and tilted her head back to give him better access. As he nuzzled her neck he found himself disappointed that his scent was completely washed off from her body. He knew it was probably necessary but he loved to have his scent imprinted on her. Apparently, he would have to start all over again.

He smirked against her skin before lifting his head and trailing his mouth along her neck. Once he reached her jaw, he grabbed her head and turned it so that he could kiss her sweet, plump lips. Refusing to waste any time, his tongue invaded her mouth and he groaned. She so very willingly squeezed around his waist tightly before her hands found their way to his tied up hair.

Sesshomaru smelled her the moment she entered the building. He knew whom she came to see and it bothered him. Although she agreed that she was not going to sleep with Inuyasha, he wanted to know the reason for her visit. He would not ask because he did not want her to know just how much power she held over him. He might be dominant during their activities but whatever she asked of him he would give it to her.

He ran his fingers along her leg all the way to her thigh. This time she was wearing the right outfit.

"Inu-yasha is rig-ht th-ere," she said between kisses.

The simple mention of his brother's name made his skin crawl. He did not want him mentioned during their activities. He did not want her to think about him.

"It did not stop you last time, little minx." He bore his fangs. "Or when you were on the phone with him last night."

The reminder of how close they came to being discovered twice made her shiver with pleasure. It was bad and dangerous but everything about him was. Sesshomaru was not a prince charming, he was not the type of man she always looked for and he certainly was not the type you married right? Then again, neither was Inuyasha it seemed.

He wanted to rip the clothes off her pretty little body and ravage her right there on the floor. Considering how the scent of her heat got stronger every hour, it was damn near impossible to resist her. He constantly buried his nose against her just so he could inhale her divine scent. He lapped at her collarbone with his tongue before nibbling the flesh.

His sneaky hand made its way between her thighs. "Are you not wet for this Sesshomaru?"

He slid his hand against her core and rubbed it gently. "Do you not ache for my cock?"

Evil. This man was pure evil. He knew her body was begging to be taken by him. He knew she wanted nothing more than to feel him stretch her inner walls with his large dick. He knew she was already dripping wet for him.

Slowly, he parted her underwear away from her womanhood and inserted a digit in her warm, wet cunt. She wiggled in his hold which only pushed his finger deeper inside of her. He leaned forward to nip at her skin.

"Is this what you want?"

Already she was panting. Her lips were parted while she fumbled with the collar of his shirt. His hands and his mouth were everywhere at once; it was making her dizzy with desire. She was unable to find her voice so she nodded.

He used his free hand to grope her rear and he allowed his claws to quickly perforate her flesh. "I did not hear you, Miko."

Once he felt the blood rushing from the wounds he inflicted on her, he pulled his hand away to caress the injured skin. His touch was like silk and made her shiver.

"Y-yes."

"Yes what?"

"I wa-nt you."

Only to make her suffering worse, he pulled his finger from her core. It was drenched in her juices as he brought it up to her mouth to rest on her lips. Her eyes were glistening with lust while she opened her lips and licked it clean. Her face reminded him of when she was sucking on his cock last night and his length twitched.

His dirty little vixen.

"What do you want?"

"You."

"No," he growled.

"Your cock."

He grabbed the back of her head and pushed it forward until their noses touched. "I do not believe you really want it. I do not think you are begging hard enough for it."

Her pussy was already missing the presence of his finger and she could remember very well what else filled her last night. Her skin was scorching hot and on fire and she needed this. Inuyasha was pushed into the back of her mind, long forgotten. This dominant male in front of her was all that occupied her thoughts. She wanted to be fucked senseless by him until her legs could no longer hold her up.

His words echoed in her mind and she found them thrilling. Sesshomaru did not miss the spike in her arousal and he arched an eyebrow. He might have a little idea where to go next. "Perhaps you need to be taught a lesson," he said as he untangled her legs from around his waist.

She whimpered at his missing presence and he smirked. Yes, he would teach her to express herself more loudly. He grabbed her hair and tugged on it to pull her away from the door. Then, he turned her body around and pressed his body against her back. He finally released her hair to allow himself to remove his tie.

"You have been a bad girl, a very bad girl."

At his words alone, her legs quivered.

He used his tie to gag her mouth and then, tied her hands right behind her head. She yelped in pain at the uncomfortable position but he only hushed her. "If you want my cock, you will have to behave."

She silenced herself, her wet tongue pressing against the silky fabric of his tie. Why she gave herself fully to that man, she had no idea. She wanted him to control her and she wanted him to take her. She wanted to learn from his skillful hands and she wanted to lose herself in the lusty, erotic pleasures he had to offer her.

Kagome arched her back and pushed her ass into his groin and he chuckled. "Impatient little Miko. Do you ache for my touch that badly?"

Of course she did, he could smell it on her.

It never mattered how close by her husband was, she always wanted him. Today, he wanted to make sure she was not going to forget it. She was his. All that was missing was his mark on her neck and that would come soon enough.

She was dripping wet for him. The combination of her desire to make him her alpha and her heat was enough to make her want to explode. He planned on dragging out that feeling and teasing her. He was still a bit upset that she dared to mention his brother; she was about to pay for that.

He used his hands to spread her legs and then he unzipped his pants, pulling his cock from the hole. He ripped her underwear from her body and tossed it on the ground before lifting her skirt. Slowly, he leaned forward and began rubbing the tip of his length against her wet core. She whimpered loudly against the tie and he felt his erection pulse.

She was craving him.

Sesshomaru rolled his hips and teased her causing his cock to enter her womanhood a bit more. This might tease him just as much as it was teasing her but he loved the way she trembled for more. Each time his hands caressed her bare flesh she jolted. How did she not know by now that she belonged to him? That nobody else would make her feel this way?

He pressed his mouth to the back of her neck and nibble the flesh. He had to allow himself around her neck or he would lose his mind.

He lowered himself slightly before rubbing his entire length horizontally against her drenched opening. He felt as she tried to position herself so that he would accidently slide in her but he did not let that happen. He grabbed her hips with his hands and held her in place.

"What is it you need?" he asked in a raspy voice. "Tell me," he teased.

He knew she wanted him deep inside of her and he knew she could not speak. She spoke against the fabric but it all sounded like muffle sounds.

"I'm sorry, are you trying to speak?"

She sighed, annoyed.

"A sigh? That is not what good girls do."

He released one of her sides and immediately smacked her butt cheeks. He watched them jiggle from the impact, completely mesmerized. He knew his little vixen liked the pain; she proved it to him last night. She liked it when he punished her. He moved his hands to her breasts and grabbed her nipples between his fingers. He began twisting and watched as she threw her head back.

Sesshomaru squeezed them again and felt the flow of her juices increase. She did not climax yet and she was already dripping down his length. Bad girl.

He held her by the waist before dropping down to his knees. He sat her on his lap with her breasts pressed against his chest and her long legs wrapped around him. His cock was between them, resting on her stomach. It was warm and wet and she bit on her bottom lip. He never made it easy for her did he?

Sesshomaru leaned forward and nipped at her neck. "If you want it, you will have to work for it."

Her arms were still tied being her back giving a disadvantage; she had no balance. He wanted her to ride him? She could not keep herself on her two feet in a normal situation. How was she going to do this?

Their eyes met and she saw the challenge shining in his amber orbs. Sesshomaru knew what kind of woman she was. Disregarding current events, she was strong and stubborn. She was his opposite; a miko. She was supposed to be pure and untainted. Every time they met he enjoyed corrupting her and taking away that innocence.

Despite how strong he was, some days he felt like he controlled nothing. His father tossed his mother aside for a human and then a hanyou became the most important part of the family. He was doing everything that was expected of him. He studied, he took over the company and he was doing his father's bidding.

When was he in charge? Never.

He was a taiyoukai; he was strong and powerful. Yet, only she made him feel that way.

Kagome's bottom lip quivered as she squeezed around his waist to lift herself. Her legs were shaking because of the pressure but she did not stop. She tilted her head backwards and grunted out of exhaustion.

Sesshomaru watched her with a smirk on his face. His cock was twitching with anticipation. She had a lot of strength for a human but then again, he never doubted her. She was also quite the determined little thing; she was intent on proving to him that she could best his little challenge.

Kagome swallowed hard while the pressure in her arms increased. Twisted as it was, it was sinfully pleasurable. His tie was keeping her from her goal, from obtaining the satisfaction she was seeking. Just a few hours ago she was pinned under his sturdy body with his cock pounding inside of her… but she wanted it again.

She ran her tongue over her lips and made one last effort. She felt the tip of his length brush up against her dripping core and she shivered with need. Almost there, just a little more. Then it happened, she managed to lift herself high enough to let Sesshomaru's cock penetrate her. She groaned as she lowered her body, fully taking his erection inside of her.

He joined in by growling. How he craved her tightness and her warmth! If he could, he would never leave. Her scent was making him dizzy and it was only with amazing restraint that he did not grab her hips and decided the pace for himself.

Kagome was already panting and out of breath, and she feared that she might not be able to keep this up for very long. She was going extremely slowly and it bothered her. She wanted speed, she wanted him to pound inside of her and she needed – oh god why was he doing this to her?

"Se-sshomaru," she begged.

"Begging? What is it you want?" he asked huskily while his breath tickled her skin.

"More."

She might be exhausted but she never stopped. It did not matter how slow she was going, she kept it up. She would be damned if she was not going to get some pleasure out of her efforts. Also, Sesshomaru was enjoying this way too much. Perhaps it was time to play as well.

A smirk formed on her lips as she focused her remaining energy, gathering it before she flared her miko powers. A pink glow quickly surrounded her and pressed against Sesshomaru. He held back a groan of pain as his skin suddenly felt like it was on fire. Her powers prickled his flesh causing his beast to roar in his chest.

The little vixen was playing dirty.

He decided to play fire with fire. His youki began to form around them, quickly overshadowing her pink aura. Nonetheless, Kagome did not back down. Her aura flared up against his and he grunted. Now that she was focusing on holding him back, she was no longer riding him. He put his hands on her hips, his claws scratching at her skin.

He forced her completely down and she gasped while tilting her head back. The strength of both their auras was growing and it was almost overwhelming.

Sesshomaru moved forward and slammed her back against the floor. He rolled his hips a few times and watched as she arched her back, pressing herself against him. The closer she was to him, the more it burned. He was trying to fight her while allowing her powers to reach him at the same time. It was a thrill.

Kagome pushed her shoulders back, trying to move her body away from the carpet. It might be fluffy and soft but with the way Sesshomaru was hammering inside of her, the friction was beginning to burn. He pressed his palms on each side of his head, his claws slowly ripping the carpet apart. She arose something dangerous from within him ands he was not sure she was ready for it. They were about to find out.

His amber eyes slowly turned crimson and an animalistic growl rumbled through his chest. He pressed Kagome down, applying pressure on her tied arms, and picked up the speed. His claws were shredding the carpet as he pounded harshly enough inside of her to cause her to gasp, breathless. His strokes were so powerful she was unable to catch her breath.

Her insides felt like they were on fire and slowly melting. She was wrapping herself tightly around him, her juices leaking out of her. She was overflowing with pain and lust. He was pushing so far deep inside of her, she felt like he was going to rip her in two.

Sesshomaru dipped forward and licked her neck. There were no more rational thoughts in his mind. He conquered her more than once and he had her submitting to all of his desires. She recognized him as her alpha. All he had to do was take her and make her his. Inuyasha was a weaker male; he did not deserve her.

He nibbled. When she screamed his name in pleasure, he would sink his fangs into her neck.

"Is this fast enough for you?"

She tried to nod but all she did was throw her head in different directions. The more the sensations heightened, the more powerful her aura became. Because he let himself free with her, he did not even feel it. She was burning his skin, marking him in her own way but he did not care. All he wanted was to be further and deeper inside of her.

He wanted more – he wanted all of her.

He wanted to fill her with his seed; he needed to respond to her body's call.

Her arms were numb and she was no longer sure of their existence. She tried to tug herself free but it did not work. All it did was make her squeeze around his length every time she tried to struggle herself out of her ties.

"You are mine. You are not going anywhere," he spoke against her skin.

For once, he was impatient for it to be over. He could not wait.

He decided to grab her legs and throw them on his shoulders. She immediately wrapped tightly around his neck, bending her body even more. She was pushing herself to the limit and she was ready to snap.

His youki was strong and she found herself digging her nails into her wrists, the sensations unbearable. Each time she flared up her aura, he grew in width inside of her. Pain was not only a turn on for her apparently.

"Come for me, scream my name." His voice sounded different, deeper.

She rolled her hips, trying to slow him down but he did not let it happen. He pounded and pounded until his length, his balls and the carpet beneath her was drenched with her sweet nectar.

Then it happened. His aura exploded around him, completely overtaking hers. She inhaled deeply before she felt the rush spread through her body and before she knew it, she was quivering in pleasure. Her climax was so powerful that he had no other choice but to follow.

His length swelled inside of her, tying them together. It was not until his seed was coating her insides that he remembered. The bite. He let himself drop on top of her, completely exhausted by his use of power, and drove his teeth through her skin.

Unfortunately for him, it was also the moment Kagome chose to move. Instead of a strong grip on her neck, he ended up slightly perforating her flesh. It was enough to leave a mark, enough for her to bleed but not enough to satisfy his urge.

"Fuck," he mumbled under his breath. So close.

Kagome was completely drenched in sweat as she flipped on her stomach, hoping Sesshomaru would untie her. By now, her wrists were probably in bad shape. He waited a few moments, admiring the view, and waiting to remove himself from her, before snapping the silky fabric of his tie with his claws.

She wanted to smile, to speak but… "Shit! Inuyasha!"

He- oh damn it. He was youkai right? Half youkai… and they used their powers like they were all alone…oh god. No. Not like this, not like this.

With strength she did not know she still had she pulled herself away from Sesshomaru. She barely straightened her clothes before she ran out of the office, leaving a frustrated Sesshomaru on the floor of his office.

How dare she leave him like this?

But Kagome was not thinking about that.

It was reckless. It was dangerous to have sex with Inuyasha right there but to use her powers? And Sesshomaru! He did the same! How was she going to explain any of it to her husband? She was surprised Inuyasha did not show up in Sesshomaru's office demanding an explanation. Ma- maybe he sensed them? Maybe he already knew what happened and in his rage, he left?

No… Inuyasha did not run away. He would have burst in and demanded an explanation. Oh and he would also try to kill Sesshomaru.

Kagome took a deep breath as she reached his secretary's desk. She did not even think about the fact that she reeked of Sesshomaru. She wanted – she did not know what her goal was exactly but… it was certain that the secret was out. Perhaps it was better that way?

She was about to walk towards Inuyasha's door when his secretary stopped him.

"He left."

Kagome blinked. "He's not in his office?" Was she wrong? Did he leave and run off in a blind rage?

She shook her head. "No, he left in a hurry a short time after you left his office."

Kagome did not have sex with Sesshomaru right away. It was impossible that Inuyasha left mad. Then where did he go? After all, did he not ask her to bring the papers because he could not leave the office? Her heart skipped a beat before she smiled.

"Oh, okay. Well thank you."

She turned around, her lips parted, and her breath hitched. Her hair was a mess and she was covered with a layer of sweat. Anyone who was a youkai here knew what she did. Kagome tried to fix her hair by running her fingers through it but she only made it worse.

Quickly enough, she found herself in the underground parking lot. Her goal was to right straight to her car and go home where she could take another long shower. This was getting exhausting. The sex with Sesshomaru was amazing but – all the sneaking around was draining her of all her energy.

She was almost at her car when a flash of silver caught her eye. She turned her head to the left just in time to see Inuyasha sitting in his car. And he was not alone. Kagome felt her insides twist as she was unable to detach her eyes from the scene unfolding in front of her. It was her; Inuyasha's other woman.

They were kissing. In Inuyasha's car. In the parking lot of Inuyasha's company. Together. Kissing. In front of her.

Her face was hidden from Kagome but she could see her hair. Shoulder length white hair. She held her breath; that hairstyle was familiar, too familiar. Then, the woman tilted her head enough to allow Kagome to catch a glimpse.

Her legs went numb, her brain turned off and her heart shattered. No it was not… it could not be…

"K-kanna?"

-V-
