Enoa watched the little will of battles before her with amusement carefully hidden. Kagome was demanding to eat with her companions.
Sesshoumaru was vehemently against it.
Sesshoumaru had been on edge of late and while those around the palace might not see it, she did. Kagome as well. His time was drawing close, it was the only explanation for his current conversation.
“You are too tired. Your blatant display of weakness earlier should more than prove that.” Sesshoumaru had said. Feeling that strange tightening ache between his lordly eyes that seemed to blossom to life whenever he spoke to the willful priestess before him.
Those brown orbs narrowed slightly, “Have you ever thought that keeping me hidden away it going to make it worse?” Kagome was not a fool, and she had come to understand a thing or two about palace life.
“Indeed my lord”, Enoa intoned quietly, “Already whispers begin of the frailty of your ward.”
Sesshoumaru glared at the demoness imperiously, how dare she take sides? And against him no less! “I care not what they say. They are not lord here. I am.”
Enoa bowed gracefully, “In all things of course.”
Her easy capitulation should have made him feel some modicum of satisfaction but those eyes of hers gleamed with warm humor that chafed him up one side and down the next.
“One hour” Kagome wheedled, “I’ll be sitting most of the time. It shouldn’t be too taxing.”
He growled softly.
“Please?” she asked softly, “They are worried about me.”
Sesshoumaru eyed her a moment more. “For this boon you will grant me one in turn?”
“Huh?”
“Favor for favor” Enoa chimed in.
Kagome blinked, “What? Oh! Sure. Why not?”
Sesshoumaru pinched the bridge of his elegant nose. “I may require your… assistance… sooner than anticipated. ”
Kagome’s eyes went wide and even though she was more than willing to assist him, she found herself wondering exactly how.
She’d already lost control of her powers once in this place. What if happened again? What if she hurt someone?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kagome was thrilled to be out of her room, even for something has insignificant as dinner. Still, she was determined to enjoy as much time with her friends as possible. She knew that once Sesshoumaru got himself under control, they would embark on a shard hunting trip.
They’d heard rumors of a an old boar youkai collecting them in the south. Sesshoumaru knew this demon, and while Kagome simply wanted to ask him for the shards, Sesshoumaru looked forward to destroying him. He kept that to himself, the human priestess was strange about wanting to avoid bloodshed.
He saw at his grand table as Enoa entered the dining room, Kagome at her elbow. She was garbed in colorful silks, shades of yellows and creams and the brilliant pink that damn butterfly seamstress adored so much. Still, her very image was befitting of his house.
Kagome was seated near him and the meal began. Enoa, stood away from the table but the tall demoness carefully watching over her ward with steadfast eyes, at the first sign of fatigue she would take Kagome away.. More than a few times Inuyasha found his brother’s topaz gaze lingering there and in those moments he felt a deep concern.
Koga had of course puffed himself up quite nicely to the woman clad in layers of brilliant silks. True to her lessons, Kagome was polite but was careful to not say or so anything that might call into question Sesshoumaru’s right as her alpha.
Her manners were impeccable and all in all Sesshoumaru was pleased that dinner had occurred without bloodshed, although if his half sibling continued to glower at him, that could be remedied. The monk and slayer seemed to understand the tension and sought to engage Inuyasha in friendly banter. The hanyou wasn’t having it.
“So Kagome” he asked at length, when the food had been cleared by silent servant, “Are you just gonna lounge around Sesshoumaru’s palace or do some real work and find shards any time soon?”
Well, Sesshoumaru thought to himself, it was almost free of bloodshed.
“Inuyasha.” He deadpanned.
“What?” Inuyasha demanded, “She’s the only one who can sense them and as far as I can tell, she’s not doing her job.”
“I told you earlier I purified some shards. It was a lot of work.” She snapped at him then, “”Think its easy you try it.”
“That’s right muttface” Kouga chimed in, “She’s not some shard detector for you. I oughta waste you for even thinking of her that way.”
Inuyasha glared at the wolf, “Funny. I seem to recall someone abducting her for the same damn reason.”
“Guys.” Kagome soothed.
“Yeah, well that was before I saw her true value.”
“Guys.”
“Right. And that would be?”
“Mate and mother of my pups of course!”
“Yeah because a measly little limp dick wolf like you could handle her.”
Kagome opened her mouth to sit Inuyasha into next week and tell Koga where to shove it when Sesshoumaru rose from the table swiftly.
“Miko. Accompany me.” He said tersely.
Kagome felt his hand at her elbow and then he was lifting her to her feet. His frame seemed tense and Kagome was instantly concerned for him. Rather than voice it aloud, she merely bowed to the others and replied, “Yes. Lord Sesshoumaru.”
Inuyasha rose from his seat but Enoa stepped into the doorway where her master and ward had vanished through. “Please resume your conversation.”

Once in the deserted hall, Sesshoumaru began to walk faster. Kagome nearly running to keep up with his long strides. “Sesshoumaru, “she panted, “Please, slow down. I can’t...”
Her words were cut off when the Taiyoukai suddenly puller her closer to his body and with a burst of wind, he flung the casements open, curling into that tight sphere and carrying them far away.
Moments later she found herself in the heart of the forest, facing a pink eyed demon lord.
Her priestess powers rose around her but she forced them down. Sesshoumaru took several steps backwards away from her.
“Sesshoumaru, I want to help you.”
He growled at her, the pink darkening to the stark red that she’d seen only a handful of times before. Hands outstretched to him, she slowly approached.
She yelped when he lunged at her, tackling her to the forest floor. Kagome knew that fighting him would end badly .She forced herself to go limp beneath him. And when his face, mere inches from hers contorted into a snarl, she raised her small hand and cupped his cheek.
“Sesshoumaru.” She said quietly, “Its ok. Its me. Kagome.”
Red eyes blinked down at her and the snarl marring his features slid away as his beast studied her. Her thumb traced over one of the stripes on his cheek. Her eyes steady. She knew she’d taken some small injury in the fall, because her own cheek was stinging. Likely a scratch from a branch.
Sesshoumaru seemed to sniff at her, his nose sliding into her hair, warm breath fanning against her ear. Then his tongue was lapping at her cheek. Kagome turned her face from him, trying not to giggle from the tickling sensation. The tall demon nosed his way across her jaw, face burying against the curve of her throat as he fought himself.
Sesshoumaru drank in the sweet scent of her skin. Her little hands tangled as they were in his long silver hair, did not seek to push him away. She was soft, fragrant and unmoving. He felt the burning hunger flood his awareness, the feeling of hot embers pulsing under his skin. Heat. How he hated it.
With his face still tight against her, he finally spoke.
“Forgive me” his voice was low, almost tired. “You see the truly animal side of my kind.”
She slowly lifted his face and shook her head. “I see you. I see you hurting, and I want to stop it.”
The pink slid from his eyes, until only that rich gold remained. He was still crouched atop her, Only clawed hand in her hair, one at her hip. Face inches from hers.
“Tell me how.” She pleaded softly.
Sesshoumaru let his head drop and pressed his lips to hers. A scorching, velvet slide that made her gasp and his tongue slipped to tap against her teeth before he seemed to come to his senses and pulled back from her. He rose gracefully. “You have assisted me in calming the heat.”
Kagome remained on the mossy earth, silks pooled around her and Sesshoumaru felt like kicking himself. He wanted, at that moment, to crush her beneath him once more and ease his body’s need. But no. That was not the agreement that had been made.
He helped her to stand and then tilted his face to the moonlight spilling through the trees. “Let us return before Inuyasha tears my home apart.”
Once more they curled and flew but Kagome’s mind was in a jumbled state. She had just kissed Sesshoumaru.
And she’d liked it.
