Sorry for the delay, writer’s block strikes again. Also
sorry but this is a short chapter. Inuyasha cannot be tamed. He can’t be owned
by me either. Thanks for reading and please review.
Chapter 11 – Eleventh
‘She was in love with him.’ Realization hit Kagome like a
thunderbolt. She was in love with Inuyasha. That had to be the reason why she
had behaved so outrageously wanton. He
had made her feel things she’d never felt before. Kagome sat in front of her
vanity table, not really paying attention to the flurry of activity going on
around her. She had been in a daze ever since she walked in the door dripping
wet a few minutes ago. Sango had ushered her up to her room immediately. They
got her out of her wet clothes, and her maid was now trying to fix her damp
hair the best she could. ‘How could I have fallen for him?’ She thought. She’d
never been attracted to anyone before, why was he different?
Kagome came out of her stupor and noticed how she had been
transformed in the span of five minutes. Sango brought over a bright yellow
muslin gown from the wardrobe. Kagome noticed it was the one she had just
purchased. She had wanted to save it for a special occasion.
“Come on, you have to put this dress on and go downstairs
right away.” Sango said in a rush of words.
“Why?” Kagome asked confused.
“I told you already. Lord Sesshomaru has been waiting to see
you.”
Kagome groaned.
~~
Kagome descended the stairs with trepidation. She stared ate pae parlor doors and dreaded the confrontation to come. She knew he was here to
talk about what happened at the theater. She was exhausted and all she wanted
to do was to crawl into bed. Everything had gone wrong. She should have stayed away from both men.
She stood there for a few moments gathered her courage and opened the door.
When she came into the room she found Lord Sesshomaru staring out the window
hands clasped behind his back and from his profile she could tell that he was
frowning. He seemed to always have that look on his face, she mused. She looked
at him for a few seconds since he was so engrossed that he seemed not to notice
her entrance. Kagome walked farther into the room and was surprised to see Lady
Matsamura sitting at the writing desk. She noticed and said,
“There you are dear.” Lady Matsamura stood and took Kagome’s
hand. Lord Sesshomaru turned and their eyes met briefly as she was being led to
the sofa. She blushed furiously she felt ashamed. ‘If he only knew what it was I was doing that
kept him waiting. He wouldn’t be here now.’ He bowed, never tearing his gaze
away from her. Lady Matsamura said something she didn’t hear.
“I am sorry sir to have kept you waiting. I was unaware you
would be visiting this morning.” Kagome said trembling a little. He said nothing
and just stared.
“Kagome, Lord Sesshomaru and I need to speak with you.” Lady
Matsamura said.
Kagome didn’t like the sound of that.
~~
Inuyasha slammed the door to his study. He strode to the
brandy decanter and poured himself a large measure. It was only 10am but he didn’t care he needed something to
numb his brain. Unfulfilled desire still coursed through him. He flung himself
onto a winged back chair. The lady was dangerous, he mused. No, he was the
dangerous one. What could he have been thinking? He almost took advantage of
the girl in broad daylight in the middle of the road. He hadn’t been thinking.
He just did what he had wanted to do ever since that first night he’d helped
her. He drank mechanically as images of having her in his arms warm and yielding,
moaning with pleasure. At first she had resisted but then he felt her relax
into him. He knew that she wanted him but she had realized sooner than him that
it was madness. He groaned. He was interrupted from his thoughts by a knock at
the door.
“Enter” He said annoyed at the interruption.
The butler entered with a note on a silver tray. Inuyasha
grabbed the note and brusquely opened it. After reading it over he said to the
butler, “Have Myoga sent for. I need to see him immediately.”
“Yes Sir.” Ufton bowed and left the room.
‘This is not good.’ Inuyasha thought to himself.
~~
Kagome sat her hands clasped on her lap and head bowed in
defeat. She had just been informed that she was to marry Lord Sesshomaru by
contract. A contract that was settled without her consent. A contract he made
with her guardian behind her back. She was so furious she decided to keep her
calm by not saying anything just now. She would take it up with him the minute
they were alone. She couldn’t believe
it. It wasn’t enough she had refused him he had to push the matter. She kept
looking up once in a while. They were talking about her as if she wasn’t even
in the room. She caught a glimpse of him looking at her. She gave him the
dirtiest look she could muster. A slight grin crossed his lips. Before she
totally lost it Lady Matsamura came over to her and gave her a small stack of
papers.
“I would think you’d like to look this over Kagome. I will
leave you two alone, I’m sure there is a lot you need to talk about.” And with that
she left quietly.
A heavy silence ensued. Kagome broke it by throwing the
stack of papers at him.
He wasn’t surprised at her action. He actually had expected
her to slap him or scream at him. Kagome stood and glared at him. “If you think
you can bully me into this, you’re wrong. I don’t want to marry you. Why can’t
you understand that?” She fought back the tears that threatened to overtake
her. She was exhausted and this man was going to drive her mad. “Why?” she let
the question hang in the air. It was a long time before he responded.
“Why not? The way I see it you are in need of a husband and
I’m in need of a wife.”
Sesshomaru calmly picked up the papers and handed them to
her.
“I would suggest you take a look at these before making any
rash decisions. I don’t see what the problem is by this morning half the ton
believes we are engaged. If Lady Kikyo lives up to her reputation the gossip
will be all over town by tonight.”
She snatched the papers from his hand. “I don’t need a
husband.”
“I beg to differ. It would seem that after Miss Sango
marries you would be left alone and even though I believe the Matsamura’s are
very generous people you really are only a companion to their daughter.” That
hurt her. He could tell from the look on her face. But at the moment he didn’t
care. She had to see reason. “Or are you expecting to go and live with her and
her husband?”
She looked aghast and after a few tense seconds she said,
“Please leave. I need sometime alone.” She was on the verge of tears but she
sure as hell was not going to cry in front of him. He stood immobile in front
of her. He caught her trembling chin on the palm of his hand and lifted her
face up to look at him. “I will do as you ask this time. But I will return in
the morning. You need to accept the inevitable.” He leaned forward, she tried
to remove his hand from her chin but he held her still and kissed her. It was a
light touch in comparison to the kisses she’d had earlier, but it hurt like
nothing else. He released her and left her alone.
‘For now.’ He
thought.
