Chapter 11: The Amorous White Rose
As they sped through the forest, Kagome couldn’t help but ask Inuyasha the question that plagued her mind. “Inuyasha, why are you taking me to Koga if you don’t want me to go?” Inuyasha frowned but kept his fast pace.
“I may not want you to go, but you needed a break.” Even though Kagome’s face did not show it, she thanked him. Although, she couldn’t help but feel it was a lie. ‘Inuyasha hates resting. The only time he actually insisted on rest was when I was sick, but even then he grumbled about it.’ When they neared Koga’s territory, Inuyasha slowed to let Kagome down. They walked to the forest line that lead to the rocky mountain cliffs. Inuyasha paused, sniffed, and then turned to face Kagome. He didn’t look angry or upset. He actually reminded her of Sesshomaru with his blank expression.
“Koga’s cave is just ahead, follow the river. It will lead you to it. I… I’m gonna head back.” He turned to walk back to Kaede’s.
“Inuyasha, tell me why you really brought me here. Tell me the truth and don’t say I needed a break.” Kagome’s sweet voice filtered through the air. Inuyasha couldn’t keep his eyes still while he stumbled for words.
“I… It… We… You…” He sighed and stared at the ground. ‘Inuyasha could never look me in the eyes when he was going to see Kikyo.’ Kagome knew he would see her soon and she could only watch as he left her once again.
“It’s Kikyo, isn’t it?” Kagome was fairly calm when she spoke. Inuyasha’s eyes shot up to her voice. ‘I knew it.’ “Just go.” Kagome turned to walk away. She felt the knot in her chest tighten, cutting off the supply to her remaining heart. Inuyasha grabbed her wrist and spun her around.
“Kagome. I’m just gonna ask her if she’s found any jewel shards. That’s it!” He practically pleaded for her forgiveness before he even committed the act. Kagome could no longer look at him and kept her gaze to the winding river.
“I’m not stupid ya know. Just leave me, I’ll meet you at Kaede’s in four days. Now let go!” Kagome’s face was showing her anger, but if carefully examined, sadness was buried far below and digging its way out. Carefully she kept that emotion hidden from Inuyasha.
“Kagome, wait!”
“Koga. I’m here!” Kagome shouted knowing that Koga would come for her. Inuyasha let go of her wrist and hesitantly looked at her before he took off.
Kagome grinned and then sighed. She was rid of the one who cause her pain but she knew that she would have to face this problem and put it to rest very soon. Her heart couldn’t take much more abuse. The next few days would fly by when she wanted them to crawl.

Kagome walked along the river to Koga’s cave. The sun was blazing and beating down on her creamy white flesh. Sweat drops slid down the sides of her cheeks and she felt sticky from the perspiration in other areas.
“Hey Kagome, up here.” Koga shouted from the top of a cliff just above her. He jumped down right in front of her and lovingly cupped her hands. He smiled one of his wicked ‘I won’ grins at her. He did win that battle. After all, Kagome was with him and not Inuyasha. “I’ve been waiting for you.”
Kagome looked irritated as she looked into his shinning eyes.
“Koga please, I just want to hang out. I desperately needed time away from Inuyasha, so please don’t make me need time away from you too.” Koga closed his eyes and dropped his head but he kept that smirk on.
“I would protest that I am nothing like that mutt but to appease you, I won’t. Would you like to play manhunt with the pack?” He quickly changed the subject. Kagome cheered up at the sound of a game but was still a little confused.
“Wait a sec, I thought manhunt was played at night?” Koga scooped her up into his tight embrace and jumped to the ledge he originally came from. Kagome’s cheeks tinted pink from the close encounter.
“It is, but during the day it is much harder to win, and it’s excellent practice for hunting and combat. Believe me, the pack needs all the practice they can get.” Kagome enjoyed her time away, and smiled more that day then she had in the past four days combined. Needless to say, Kagome lost horribly, but she played and reacquainted herself with the rest of the pack. During the final game, she sat out exhausted from the heat. The sun was still burning hot as she watched the others. ‘Geez. Where do they get all that energy from when it’s this hot out?’ As Koga eliminated his sixth pack member, he glanced over to Kagome who gave a smile and wiped her forehead.
“Ginta. You’re it, I’m taking Kagome to cool off.” He yelled over his shoulder and walked away with Kagome. That same intimidating smile never left his face as they headed down a long path that twisted Kagome’s sense of direction. She could have sworn they were going in rectangles.
“Where are we going Koga?”
“I want it to be a surprise, but you will get to cool off… now close your eyes.” Kagome closed her eyes as Koga picked her up under her knees and back. He quickly carried her off. She instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck for added support, earning a seductive smile from her transport. When the jumping and running came to a stop, he gently set her down.
“I’m in the mood to go swimming, how about you?” Kagome nodded with her eyes still closed. “Alright then. Open your eyes.” Kagome’s mouth dropped. “You just have to get down first.” She peered over a tall cliff to a large lake. When she looked back at Koga to protest she became bright red. He had already removed his armor and was about to remove the fur around his waist.
“Wait Koga! I’m not going skinny dipping!” He stopped and looked up at her. She could see it in his eyes that he wanted to go, and she really wanted to cool off. “Well…. can you at least leave your um…. loin cloth on?” She smiled shyly. “I’ll just go get my suit on. No peeking.” Koga just stared at her as she walked away. Kagome finally emerged from behind the rock and became pink when she noticed that Koga was staring at her. He did keep a small cloth on for Kagome’s sake, but he wasn’t sure if it was covering his reaction to Kagome’s lack of attire. “Well, are you ready?”
Koga mumbled some unintelligible words as she peered over the ledge. ‘Nothing to lose right? Why not?’ She reminded herself before taking a couple steps back. “Come on Koga! Let’s go!” Koga kept staring at her as she took a running leap off the cliff. He finally closed his mouth and smiled. ‘Something’s different about her… I like it.’ He soon found himself falling and swimming with the woman whom he loved. Others soon joined them as they swam until just before sunset. Once again she enjoyed herself, and pushed away the painful memories of the past. She refused to let pain control her future, and as far as she knew, this was her future until Inuyasha came back. A future as in the very next thing she would do, and not something that would affect her later future, because as far as Kagome knew, she lived for now and not later. As Kagome walked out of the lake, Koga heard her stomach growl and he laughed.
“Hey Kagome, why don’t you go get changed and I’ll get a hunting party going?” Her stomach growled again. “I’ll take that as a yes.” Kagome giggled and tried to hold back the rumbling. Koga gathered some others to hunt, as Kagome made her way up the side of the cliff to retrieve her clothes. When she reached the summit, she gasped at the sight before her.
The bright orange sun was setting between two purplish blue snow covered mountains. Yellow rays reflected off the slender of the blue lake down below while a flock of geese flew overhead. A few stars peeped out high above, and a gust of wind brought Kagome out of her trance. She let go of the breath she was holding and turned to grab her bag of clothes. She noticed her bag wasn’t where she had left it behind the bush. She found it laying against a smaller boulder a few feet away. As she walked over to it, she noticed another white rose placed intricately on top of it. Memories of her encounter with Sesshomaru engulfed her mind. She smiled as the shadows of shooting stars streaked across her eyes. She shivered when a cool breeze felt as soft as his powerful arm and she sighed when the sun was as brilliant as his crimson burning eyes. She bent down to pick up the rose and pricked her left index finger, spilling a droplet of blood. Heat surged through her veins as she recalled her dream and the promise he made to her. She inhaled with closed eyes as she stood again. The heat collected in her abdomen as the winds unseen fingers slid across and down her thigh. A warm wetness was felt between her legs and throbbed with a desire to be encountered. ‘Tonight… I have to see him again, but why do I feel this way? Why do I need him? Not for the potion or spell, but physically need to be with him?!’ She opened her eyes and turned her back to the now sleeping sun.
“You said I would know when you needed me.” She stated to no one in particular. “If this rose is your way of saying you want to see me, then I will meet you here tonight.”
