Unfaithful Seduction

Chapter 9: Salvation

Pure despair claimed her soul. No longer did she dream, no longer did she have the will to think and comprehend anything around her. Kagomes body was beginning to shut down unconsciously. It was just too much to handle all at once. Yet she could not block out the sudden flashbacks that would over take her mind replaying her living nightmare. Sesshomaru… Gone… trying to protect her from someone she had once called her friend.

Unconsciously tears filled the bottom lining of her eyes and pored over down the sides of her cheeks. Her face remained expressionless and unmoving. Kagome had woken up in strange clothing and in a strange room that oddly reminded her of the room she had been kept in for the past few days. It was dimly lit and cold stone walls were all around her. Yet it was much larger and furnished with elaborate fabrics that tried to disguise the cold darkness of it all.

The sound of rushing water was a distant roar and a slight breeze made its way through the room keeping it well ventilated. Kagome glanced down at herself slowly closing her eyes and then opening them again. She was dressed in a tight fitting light cotton dress with long sleeves that belled at the end that barely reached her knees where it fanned out just slightly. It was a deep emerald green with white edges along the hem and sleeves of the dress. The neck line of her dress was embarrassingly low, especially for the era she had chosen to live in.

She sat in a bed of soft furs that were keeping her bare legs warm. A shaky hand rose to her face pressing her palm against her forehead she took a deep breath forcing herself to try and think. Just as she moved her hand down the side of her neck she felt her scarred skin that had been mutilated to tarnish the link that connected her to Sesshomaru. For a brief moment his face appeared in front of her eyes and just as quickly as it came he was gone… again…

Silently Koga seemed to appear out of thin air. Kagome didn’t even lift her gaze to him she only continued to stare where she had seen her lost loves face in the tangled mass of furs that surrounded her body. She felt strong demanding fingers grip the tip of her chin tilting her head up to face him.

“I see you are finally awake Kagome.” Kagome looked right through him, he was there and yet she willed herself not to see him… not to see anything.

She had nothing left to hope for… nothing left to fight for. No friends to go back to, no home to return to… she was trapped here. Koga looked at her displeasure clear on his face. He trailed his thumb over the pale pink of her bottom lip leaning down to her.

“He is not coming back… You will forget sooner or later… and you will learn to accept and love me just as I have always said to you. I will replace every memory you had with him…” Koga forcefully placed a kiss on her lips.

Memories… that’s all she had left… Kagome felt a sudden lurch in her stomach as Koga pressed his lips against hers. Instantly rage filled her entire body and mind. Her hand had reacted so fast and with so much force that she shocked herself as it connected with the flesh of her offenders face.

Koga snarled as he pulled his face away from her. The look of astonishment briefly crossed his face before a sinister smirk replaced it. Kogas eyes narrowed as he wrapped his hand in the back of her head fisting his hand in her hair he ripped her head backwards as he used his free hand to pin her hands above her head.

Allowing himself to press her down into the furs his midnight blue eyes burned into hers. Kagome felt his weight on her body and tried to struggle to no avail. She would not allow herself to ever forget what he had done to her, she would never forget about Sesshomaru no matter what he did to her body she would never forget her union with Sesshomaru. If she allowed herself to forget he would win, she would not allow Sesshomarus death to be in vain.

“This will prove to be more entertaining than I had expected it to be… I should have expected nothing less from you Kagome…” Koga bent his head down to her neck pressing deceitful kisses up the side of her neck nipping at the junction between her neck and shoulder.

“You will fully belong to me one day Kagome… and everyone will know that you are the privileged mate that belongs to the most powerful demon in this world.” Koga lightly scratched his fangs down the side of her neck watching as her skin began to welt and rise in an angry shade of red.

Kagome felt the moisture well behind her eyes but refused to allow her tears to fall. She would never allow him to see her cry again. He would never see any emotion other than rage or hatred. She would fight and struggle until her last breath where she prayed she would finally be able to join her angelic lover in their afterlife.

“Koga… sir a moment please…” A sudden alarmed voice filled the room.

Kagome felt the weight of Kogas body begin to leave hers and a flood of relief flooded through her body. He still held her hands above her head as he looked back to one of his subordinates his eyes dangerous and upset with the sudden intrusion.

“It can wait until I am finished here…” And without so much as a second glace back he had his attention focused once more on Kagome.

“But sir… I think you would really like to know… about it right now… and is not suitable to be said here…” The man’s voice was urgent and slightly reluctant; he knew exactly what Koga was now capable of with his new found abilities.

Kogas eyes closed in irritation; he was busy and did not want to be bothered… what could possibly be so important that one of his top warriors would insist to interrupt him. Kogas eyes slid open and he smirked down at Kagome and pressed one last forceful kiss on her lips before completely releasing her and moving off of the bed.

Kogas warrior bowed his head in respect and apology as he moved to allow Koga to pass him out of the stone room.

“I’m not finished with you yet… not even close…” Koga growled over his shoulder a wicked smirk on his features walking out of the room his warrior on his heels.

Kagome couldn’t care less about the troubles Koga was having. She wished it was something that would preoccupy all of his time. She buried her face in the furs willing herself to sleep and dream of her cherished memories.

Koga walked out into the main chamber in his home. The large dwelling had been carved out of the side of the cliff. A waterfall cloaked the entrance and washed away any scents that lingered behind. He stopped in the middle of the room hands placed on his hips. He wore an advanced version of his previous attire. His armor was all starlight black and the fur that he wore was dark silver.

“Sir… HE is on the way here…” Koga chuckled darkly turning slightly to the side.

“Inuyasha is not a threat to me… If he opposes me I will dispose of him just like his worthless brother.” Triumph lit up on his face as he flexed his claws at his side.

“Such a shame he was so easy to kill… I expected more of the ‘Great Lord of the West’.” His tone was mocking as he lifted his arm in the air.

A string of neon blue tattoos illuminated from his arm crawling down to his should and onto his chest.

“So much raw power… and he couldn’t even use it to save the one thing he claimed to ‘love’.” Koga fully turned to his warrior. The look on his face was somewhat troubling to Koga.

“My Lord Koga… it is not Inuyasha that is coming… it IS HIM…” The color seemed to visibly drain from the man’s face as he spoke.

“Impossible… I killed him… you cannot bring back the dead… and Inuya…” Koga cut himself off midsentence.

“He wouldn’t dare! That filthy half breed should have died with him!!” Kogas voice echoed throughout the room.

“Where is he? He cannot reach us… she is not ready yet!”

“At the speeds he is traveling, he is about a day’s travel from here … Sir.”

Koga fell incredibly silent as he pondered his next course of action. Walking to the curtain of water that fell over the entrance to his home he slowly lifted his fingers into the water.

“I will have to properly take care of him myself… She cannot find out about this… it will give her hope and will make the transformation process even harder to complete.” Koga looked back over his shoulder displeasure clear on his features.

Without another word Koga disappeared through the thick wall of water in front of him.


Sesshomaru had found renewed strength in himself as he traveled blindly in the direction his feet chose to take him. He had complete faith in his instincts and he knew he would find her. That’s when he felt it… the sharp tug on his soul. He could feel her despair as she touched the scarred remains of his mark on her neck. The pain nearly brought the proud lord to his knees.

Sesshomarus eyes began to bleed crimson as all of Kagomes emotions began to wash over his body and mind. The hairs on the back of his neck stood on edge as he felt her captor force himself onto her. Sesshomaru felt his fangs begin to elongate as his protective instincts began to consume his being. Claws dug back into his palms and he took off with blinding speed. No one touched his mate.

Sesshomaru had traveled for several hours without so much as stopping for a break. He knew it wouldn’t be much longer until the mangy wolf’s messengers caught wind of him. It was his plan to get as close as he possibly could before he would have to encounter the wolf demon himself. Sesshomaru vowed that he would not make mistakes, not this time. Of all people Inuyasha had granted him a second chance and failing was not an option.

Kagome hadn’t heard what all of the yelling was about but she was sure that it would work in her favor. She had decided that even though there was no where left to go anywhere was better than her current situation. Did he honestly expect her to be so broken she would submit to him at his command? He was still the thick skulled Koga she knew… only this time… he was a much more formidable opponent.

She had no idea what he had in store for her, but she wasn’t about to stick around to find out. There had to be a reason he had returned her soul to her body instead of keeping Kikyo around. An odd feeling began to overtake her body’s actions as her limbs moved automatically on their own. This sudden rush of strength and energy began to slightly scare her. What could have possibly happened to invoke this reaction in her body?

Kagome stumbled as she stood up for the first time since her whole ordeal a few nights prior. She had lacked the energy to do so until now. She was being pulled harder and harder… there was somewhere she was supposed to be and she had to get there… NOW! The urgency that gripped her made her move faster. No shoes or protection around she would have to risk going out allowing this feeling to guide her.

Kagome placed a hand on the cold stone wall peeking out of the room. There was only one guard… the one who had interrupted Koga in the first place. Couldn’t be to hard… could it… it’s only one. She knelt down and as silently as she could and crawled over the floor. That’s when she realized there was only one exit… and that was currently blocked by the cascading waterfall. She heard a heavy sigh from the other side of the room.

“If you are done sneaking around now I suggest you go back to your room before Koga comes back or he will have both of our heads…” His voice was stern but not cold… it was almost agitated.

Kagome squealed and turned as white as a ghost. She stood straight up backing up against the wall.

“You heard me... over all the noise of the water and all the way over there?!” She stepped back into the shadows of the room clutching to the side of the stone wall.

She was only rewarded with another heavy sigh. After a long while he began to speak.

“It wasn’t supposed to go this far… He obtained what he set out to do and now he is risking everything…” He turned to Kagome facing her directly.

She recognized him as Ginta from Kogas original pack when he had kidnapped her once before. Only now he seemed more mature better put together. Kagome moved closer to him folding her hands in her lap she lowered her head.

“Ever since Inuyasha had taken up his infatuation with that dead priestess Koga has done nothing but talk about you… you were the source for everything… his power… his affections… and once he found out that Inuyashas brother had taken interest in you… he just lost it.” Ginta turned away from her again raising his hand and running it through his hair he sighed once more taking her silence as a hint to continue.

“He had heard the story of the maiden and demon from centuries ago had finally been reunited… he hardly expected it to be you. Ever since he surrendered the shikon shards to you he has sought power even stronger… he has become obsessed. We were only supposed to get things back to the way they were before but now things have turned much darker…” His voice became nothing but a sad whisper.

“Why… are you telling me all of this… I am positive Koga wouldn’t want me to know…” Kagome sat down on the edge of the couch in the middle of the room.
A bitter laugh escaped Gintas lips.

“I thought once Inuyashas brother was gone things would be back on track but it only seemed to cause more problems and his mind has been more disturbed lately. He wants what you have… he wants your power and you all to himself. I have come to find out that power… the power he stole from your soul is beginning to eat him alive and consume him entirely.” After a short pause he continued.

“It has to stop… if he does not stop this mad journey he will destroy himself completely in the process. Kagome… I am telling you this because you are the only one who can stop him…”

Kagomes eyes widened and felt herself become completely speechless. Her stop Koga…? Stop him from what? Rage began to well inside of her once more. Koga had taken everything from her… her friends, her home, her soul, and Sesshomaru. Of all of those things she would and could never forgive him for taking Sesshomaru away from her.

“I’m sorry but he does not deserve to be saved… I… I can’t help… not this time… he deserves whatever trouble he encounters… he… he took away everything I cared about… everything…” Tears began to well in the corners of her eyes as she sniffled trying her hardest to not cry.

“Are you sure…? I would have thought you would have been the first to know…” Ginta crossed his arms over his chest.

“Sure…? Sure about what…?” Kagome furiously wiped at her eyes as that odd tug began to pull at her chest again this time it was much stronger.

Ginta sighed and pointed to the corner of the room where a neat pile was formed. It was her clothes as well as her bow and a quiver of arrows.

“You have somewhere to be… and I can’t tell you where or how to get there… if it truly is as the story predicted then you already know what to do…” Ginta walked to the furthest corner of the room.

“I will take you as far as I can… but after that you are on your own… you don’t have much time…”

Kagome was about to argue when the tug became increasingly painful. She needed to go… and she needed to go now. Without a second though she dressed in her traditional school uniform; a new sense of purpose enveloped her.

Even without Sesshomaru by her side… she would fight for him… for her friends… for her life.

I hope you enjoyed this chapter! I believe there will only be 2 more chapters but we will see how I feel if it needs to be longer or not.

Please let me know what you think! Suggestions are always welcomed!
