A familiar Stranger

Months went by and Kaida remained at Sesshoumaru’s home. Taking care of Rin, fixing dinner, (she knew exactly what Sesshoumaru liked and how he liked it cooked), and when he got home she was always there with a smile on her face. She was always there when he needed her or when Rin needed someone to play with. Always.SomeSomehow, this feels natural.” He found himself thinking one day at dinner time. He looked around the small table and saw Kaida talking to Rin about something unimportant. The sound of her voice was kind and gentle and she kept her laughter low so iuldnuldn’t hurt his ears. Sesshoumaru sighed. Kaida looked over at him. She knew that when he sighed it meant something was troubling him.
“Something wrong?” She asked him with her understanding face as always.
Sesshoumaru said nothing and kept eating. “Why does she have to be so pleasant? Why can’t she just stop pretending?” ‘but is she pretending?’ a little voice said in his head… “of course she is.” He yapped back at it. “Nobody could ever lov…” His eyes widened. Had he actually thought of the “l” word?
“Sesshoumaru? Are you sure everything is all right?”
He slammed his food onto the table. Rin yelped at the sudden noise and Kaida shut her eyes as she heard the earsplitting noise, as had Sesshoumaru.
“Everything is fine!!” he yelled as he stalked out of the room slamming the door behind him. He paused outside and breathed deeply.
“Don’t let her get to you…don’t let her get to you.”

“Whoa.” Kaida said looking at Rin who just sat there petrified.
“Is Sesshoumaru-sama angry Kaida-neesan?”(neesan=big sister)
“I don’t know Rin…” she said with a smirk on her face. He had seen that look on his face before and she smiled too.

********************************
Sesshoumaru avoided Kaida for the rest of the evening while she put Rin to bed and talked to Jaken for a while. She always talked to Jaken, and Jaken liked being talk to. He heard his laugh and her’s too. The sound filled his ears, he loved to hear her laugh. Finally, he heard her say goodnight to Jaken and start walking over to her room. She hadn’t slept in Sesshoumaru’s room since the first night.
Kaida, wrapped in her own thoughts, didn’t see Sesshoumaru standing in the middle of the hall.
“Gomenasai Sesshoumaru!” she said with a smile on her face as she gently bumped into him. He stared at her. She had nice luscious lips and her eyes where gentle, and her smile…Sesshoumaru quickly snapped out of it.
“Goodnight.” He said coldly.
“Goodnight Sesshoumaru.” She said kindheartedly.
He went into his room and started changing into his night wear. “Goodnight Sesshoumaru…” he said imitating Kaida. Who does she think she is? Going around like that? And who invited her to stay? ‘well, nev never really told her to leave either…’ the little voice said. He pounded his fist on the dresser. What had she done to him? He had made up his mind. He was going to ask her to leave. Right now. Before Rin woke up and noticed. He went to his door and slid it open and went determinedly in the direction of Kaida’s room. He knocked on it, and when he heard no answer opened the door. No one was there, except for the usual clothing she wore folded neatly in a corner.
*sniff sniff*
He could smell her down the hall, in the direction of the bath houses. He made his way toward them and opened the door. She was faced away from him with her head in her arms. She was laying half inside the water, and the other half was lying against the rock. She turned her head around to see who had come in, although she had smelled him when he had been walking down the hall. He could see the fuzzy, silhouette of her in the water.
“You know Sesshoumaru, under other circumstances I’d be very mortified.” She said to him putting her head back on her arms.
He said nothing but stared at her. ‘Kaida, leave before the sun rises…’ no, that’s not good. ‘Kaida, leave now’…no...
Sesshoumaru sighed once again. Kaida turned around and used her wings again to cover herself.
“Sesshouamru?” Kaida asked getting out of the water and going over to him. Sesshoumaru was still standing there with his eyes closed mentally trying to figure out what he was going to say to her.
“Leave.”
“Eto... I would…but you’re blocking the only door.” (eto = uumm)
“I meant leave the castle.”
This baffled her.
“Leave? Just like that? You could at least give me an explanation you know. Actually don’t even bother.” Kaida heatedly said to him. “You need to move if you want me to leave.”
But he simply stood there. Watching the steam rise off her body and the water droplets gently caress her on their way down, it made him... ‘No, I refuse her to effect me that much.’ He quietly moved out of the way, but just enough to where Kaida had to squeeze to get by him. ‘are you going to let her get away? Are you that much of a fool?’ the little voice said to himself.
Whether it was the voice that made him grab her by the wrist or something else, he never knew.
“Don’t.”
“Make up your mind. Which is it leave or don’t?” Kaida said starring into his eyes as she jerked away from him. Thissed sed her to slip with the puddle she had formed underneath her, and he quickly used his tail to catch her. Unfortunately, with her weight and his momentum, he also stepped on the puddle and they both went crashing into the water.
“I’m so sorry Sesshoumaru. You should have let me fall.” She said holding back laughter.
“I’m not.” He said pushing her back into the wall and kissing her gently on the lips.
“Does this mean I get to stay?” she said wrapping her arms around him and leaning in for another kiss.
“You may stay a while longer.” He said pulling away denying her what she wanted. He got out of the water and took off his drenched clothing and put the towel, which Kaida had brought in for herself on.
“Masakaa—he didn’t even turn around.” She thought as she watched him leave. She stayed there a few moments more before she decided it was time to get out too. Since he took the towel she was going to use for herself, she simply shook off the excess water and walked to her room wrapped around her wings. She was tempted to go to Sesshoumaru’s room, but knew that if she pushed him too far she’d lose him. She went into her room and sat in front of her bed, wondering what to put on.
*siigghh*
“Let’s see, should I put on the blue one? Or the pink pajama on?” Suddenly the door opened and she felt herself being gently thrown onto her futon.
“That was an invitation to come to my room.” An unclothed Sesshoumaru said nuzzling her neck. Wrapping her arms around him she kissed his neck back and situated herself under him. He caressed her body, still warm from the water that she had been in.

**lemon content read at your own arousal**
(but it’s important to the story you know they had sex)

His hand moved around her body exploring every curve and bend. She still had her wings folded around her, so he couldn’t get to the most important parts. This made him irritated but he liked it at the same time. She, on the other hand, was feeling the way his muscles were shaped on his back and she gently rocked back and forth teasing him. (Also known as dry humping)
“You need to move your wings.” He said finally tugging them gently.
She didn’t say anything, but she uncurled her wings pushing him away slightly to make room for them to get out of the way. Once he got back to kissing range, he kissed her passionately tasting her sweet taste. His hands once again went exploring and found her breasts. He cupped them and she sighed with pleasure. She sighed again when he stopped kissing her and went to kiss them instead. Sesshoumaru felt her nipples harden with arousal when he started sucking on them slightly. This went on for a while until he started kissing downward towards her most sensitive area. A quiet cry escaped her lips when she felt his tongue explore the inner reaches of her. He quickly darted in and out and around. She was moving around in pleasure so much that he had to put his hands on her hips to keep her still. She was so close, but she knew he was going to stop just before… “he always does this!” she thought frustrated as hell when he stopped just as she was going to go over. He gently kissed his way up to her mouth and kissed her once again. Kaida could feel his eagerness against her leg. She was glad to feel him the same massive size as her own Sesshoumaru. He was about to enter her, when she used her leg to push him over, then she used her wings to flip both of them over.
“Now it’s my turn.” She whispered to him in his ear as she pinned him to the futon. This was new to him. Sesshoumaru…Lord of the Western Lands, not being in charge during mating? But he liked it… She kissed him again and moved downwards to pleasure him the same way he had her. Kissing this, licking that, sucking this and that….when finally she came up and kissed him. His hands caressed her body while she straddled him feeling her hips, her sides…everything about her infatuated him. She laid down on Sesshoumaru and she used her body weight to flip them over again. Bracing herself, she knew what was coming next. He put his mouth between her neck and her shoulder and she closed her eyes in pain as his fangs pierced through her delicate skin. By her smell, he could tell that she was in pain and noly bly by that, the bond they had talked about was beginning to form. She suddenly felt him pushing into her and she accommodated him by lifting her hips. They went into a rhythm old as time itself. She felt warm and delicate inside. Kaida was having a hard time not making any noises, she didn’t want to wake up anybody in the castle. But he wasn’t small and he was getting really into it. She could feel herself getting ready to climax and she hugged Sesshoumaru closer, and moved her hips faster. He felt her go stiff under her and that’s when she closed their bond by biting him in the same place he had bit her. She knew that Sesshoumaru wasn’t done and encouraged him by moving her hips even faster. She saw a tint of red in his eyes and knew he was close, and shortly there he stopped thrusting, went stiff, and collapsed on top of Kaida. They were both where breathing heavily the the scent of lovemaking was in the air. Kaida buried her nose in his hair and took a deep breath. She loved the scent of him, mixed with a little bit of her. Sesshoumaru slid off her and Kaida faced him as he used his tail to cover them both. She hugged him and let her nipples touch his chest, implying she was ready to go when he was up to it. Sesshoumaru simply hugged his new mate. The bond between them was complete. He was hers, and she was his. He could already see the crescent moon on her forehead begin to take shape. He stared into her eyes as he thought about what the bond meant…why would she go through with it? She had already told him what it meant. “You live, I live, you die I die!” he remembered those words the first night.
“What have you done to me?” He silently asked her.
