Sympathy for the Devil
Chapter Fourteen

An: Sorry... I was researching for Heero Potter
with 6th HP book, but I am back nowJ
Someone asked for sexual tension so I shall bring it.
Oh and here’s a shout out to live action Kenji,
“Happy Birthday” ^_^
Rin yawned and stretched. She
started to think that it was all a bad dream. A sense of relief and
disappointment ran through her that was until an old miko came into her room
smiling. “Ah, you’re awake. I am Kaede.”
“O-Rin,” she said cautiously.
“Where’s Kagome?”
“She’s checking up on Ryoko.”
Kaede chuckled. “Not very trusting are you?”
“Trust is earned,” Rin said
simply. She stood to her feet and walked out of the room. Her pace quickened
when she heard Kagome’s voice.
“Don’t worry, she’s fine. I’m
just letting her cool down awhile. I know I put you in a situation, Inu Yasha,
but you have Ryoko for back up. Sesshomaru won’t go anywhere. Use Kenji if you
have to… Inu Yasha don’t yell at me. I didn’t know Sesshomaru hadn’t explained.
Usually that happens before mating… but you have to admit they’re good
together. I know I owe you. Take it out in trade. Love ya’ bye.” Kagome hung up
the phone. From the irate sounds of Inu Yasha, taking Rin was a bad idea. Well
what was done was done.
“Sesshomaru’s still pissed
off I see.”
Kagome turned around and
smiled. “I don’t think he’ll speak to me for awhile.”
“Lucky you,” Rin smirked.
“I know you don’t mean that,”
she laughed as Kaede came up beside her. “Kaede, have you met Rin?”
The old miko nodded
chuckling. “I’ve already had the pleasure.” She turned to Rin. “I’ve heard so
much about you.”
“Exaggerated I’m sure.”
“Hardly,” Kaede smiled, “you
are every bit of the bitch he said you were.”
Brown eyes widened at the old
woman’s shrewdness. Kagome was mortified. She was about to apologize when Rin
started to laugh. “At least he didn’t lie.”
A smile formed across Kaede's
features as well. “I see what Kagome says about you is true as well.” She
started to push the two ladies toward the bath. “Relax the two of you and I
will make us something to eat. I want to get a closer look at the Lady of the Westernlands.”
Rin sobered up somewhat as
they entered the bathhouse. What the hell she needed a break to collect
herself.
“This feels so good,” Kagome
sighed. She leaned back in contentment. “Come on in the water’s fine.”
Rin poured a bucket over her
head to rinse the suds from her body then stood to her feet. Now that she was clean,
a good soak was needed. “Oh, this is nice.” She place as cool cloth over her
eyes then leaned back.
Kagome smiled. “You’ve
changed.”
“Conformity breeds in
weakness.”
“That sounds like something
that Sesshomaru would say,” Kagome chuckled. “He must be rubbing off on you.”
Rin flinched under the cloth.
“Just like Inu Yasha is rubbing off on you?”
“They say imitation is the
highest form of flattery, so then it must be love.”
“Don’t insult me.”
“Being in love is not an
insult, Rin. No matter how much you try to hide it, you’re in love with him. So
you might as well get over it and enjoy it. Time is short.”
“Okay, I’ve had it.” Rin
yanked the cloth off her eyes. She should’ve known Kagome was not going to let
this go. She knew her entirely too well. “You don’t know me. I don’t want to
sit around and girl talk. I don’t have feelings for Sesshomaru. He was just a
good fu…” Kagome's hand cracked soundly across Rin’s face stopping her cold.
Out of instinct Rin raised her fist and stopped as it nearly met with Kagome’s
closed eyes. A slight growl formed in her throat causing her eyes to widen and
Kagome’s to open in shock. Rin grabbed her towel and left the bath house.
“Rin wait,” Kagome called. She
was not about to let Rin go when she was so close to letting go of whatever was
holding her back. She grabbed a towel and ran after her. “Rin?”
“What’s the matter, child?”
Kaede asked rushing over to her.
“Nothing, Rin and I were
fighting. I think I pushed her too far.” Kagome bit her lip. She seemed to be
batting a thousand today
Kaede eyed Kagome carefully.
“She’ll come around in her own time. She’s not the type to be forced. I
would’ve thought being around Inu Yasha and Sesshomaru would‘ve taught you.”
“I know but Rin’s different…:
Kaede ran her hands through
Kagome’s hair. Her adoptive daughter was entirely too stubborn for her own
good, but it always served her well. Heaven helps us all. “Well you know she
won’t go far, she only has a towel for…” her sentence trailed and she pushed
Kagome behind her.

Rin ran through the
surrounding forest. The more distance she put between her and Kagome the better.
It was completely clear she was losing herself and she needed to get away.
“What’s happening to me?” she asked leaning against a tree. Her fist formed in
anger as tears swelled up in her eyes. Tears streamed down her face for the
first time since that day and she
hated herself for it.
“Will you be my friend?” a young
Rin asked petting her patient. She had been feeding and nursing the injured
wolf for the past two weeks. It was not until yesterday that her progress
became evident.
The wolf licked her hand lovingly.
Rin giggled. Her mommy always told her not to play with strange animals. They
could be demons and would kill her, but demons were made up. Her teacher at
school told her so. Also demons were scary not defenseless animals for her to
take care of and love. Mommy was wrong and she would finally prove it. “Come
home with me,” she urged trying to help the wolf to its feet. With patience and
gentle prodding she was able to make it home and in her room without anyone
noticing. She would make her presentation in the morning at breakfast.
Nothing could get her down. Not
even a scolding from her older brother, during dinner, for giggling so much.
She would ignore him, what did he know anyway?
“What’s the matter with you?”
“Secret,” she giggled.
Her brother’s eyebrow arched and
he looked around the table only to be met with matching shrugs. “Rin?”
Rin shook her head. She would
never tell. “Secret.”
Strong arms grasped her shoulders
and shook her slightly. “Rin?” he asked staring at her with brown eyes. A frown
crossed her face as they became lighter in color until they were amber.
Rin started and found herself
face to face with a concerned Sesshomaru. Was he real or was she hallucinating?
The poison from that wolf must have done a real number on her. She leaned
forward and sniffed his neck warily. Once she was satisfied she licked the mark
tenderly causing a shudder to pass through the both of them. Rin pulled quickly away. What
the hell was wrong with her? “Get away.”
“I do not take orders from
you.”
“Then I’ll leave,” she jumped
to her feet and prepared to walk off.
“Our pup needs the closeness
of my youkai for the first few months in order to feel secure.”
Rin froze. “This can not be happening. This can not be
happening. I can not be.....” she turned around. “What did you just say to
me?” She snarled her eyes turning crimson.
Sesshomaru nearly took a step
back. Now he understood a few off the cuff remarks his father made about women.
His heart also swelled with an odd sort of pride, his mate was a force to be
reckoned with, but he would not bow down even to her… though he would kneel. It
was clear he made the right choice now he had to make her see it. “There is no
need to repeat myself.”
Rin narrowed her eyes. She’d
kill him. There was no other way around it. She would never get rid of him (no
matter how much she secretly like being around him) unless she ceased his life
functions. And he dared to put a creature in her body!? How do these things happen?
“Sesshomaru…” She sneered as she moved towards him.
“Yes,” he answered softly
into her ear as he appeared behind her. He nuzzled her neck. Her scent was
quite inviting despite what her mouth said. “There is no need for anger what
was done is done. We were properly mated.”
Rin closed her eyes and
enjoyed the calm that settled over her. Damn him. “I can’t be your mate.”
“But you are and in the first
stage of pregnancy. You are adjusting to our pup and my youkai. That is why you
have to remain by my side, to give you both balance.”
“No,” she sighed.
“You can’t deny me,” he
whispered into her ear, “you can’t deny us.” Rin said nothing and allowed her
mate to pull her closer to him.
A grin crossed his features
when she did not fight him. It grew deeper as the opportunity to satisfy his
curiosity drew near. He moved his lips closer to her ear. “How is it that you
are out about alone in nothing but a towel?” he asked lowly.
Rin could feel his body
responding to her predicament. At least she had some kind of effect on him.
“That’s my business,” she answered leaning her head back affectionately. It was
true what they say; you can never go home again. There was no hiding her
indiscretions. Too much had changed for her to be satisfied with her old life.
Then there was Sesshomaru as much as she hated to admit, he was tolerable.
“Defiant to the end I see,”
he chuckled in her ear. He wanted her.
“You know me too well.” Rin
turned towards him. “I being mated to you changes nothing.”
Sesshomaru arched an eyebrow
amused. “I agree.” He kissed her.
“You’re still a bastard.” She
said into his mouth. He pulled away and picked her up.
“And you’re still a bitch,”
he replied.
Rin smirked. All was right in
the world, at least for now. She would figure out the rest later. “Where are
you taking me?”
“Home,” he answered simply.
“I am going to show you part of what it means to be mine.”
14-14-14
“What are you doing here,
boy?” Kaede asked. She was fairly confident that he meant no harm, there were
no other auras and he was unarmed, but she could not ignore his origins.
Genjuro put his hands up in a
non-violent stance. She looked the same as she did the last time he saw her.
There was a young woman behind her, an apprentice perhaps. “I’ve come seeking
your help.”
Kaede stared intently at the
boy now middle-aged man before her. “You need help? The help of a demon?”
“Kaede?” Kagome looked at her
adoptive mother, but Kaede never turned around. A demon? No, that could not be
true, there was no demonic aura about her and Kaede would have told her.
“Kagome, please go inside. I
will explain later.”
“What about Rin?”
“Rin!?” Genjuro bristled at
the name. O-Rin was called Rin by Pater from time to time. “No, O-Rin would’ve killed them all or died trying.”
“The Lady of the Westernlands
is with her mate.”
“Sesshomaru’s here?” her eyes
widened looking about. Why did she not sense him?’
“He’s bit out of your range,
dear. I need to discuss some things with the boy here and I will explain
everything.”
A hurt look crossed Kagome’s
features. She hated the thought of being dismissed like a child. “I need to
call Inu Yasha anyway,” she said before leaving.
“My daughter,” Kaede
explained. “Now on to business.”
Genjuro licked his lips
nervously. “One of the elders from the demon hunter clan staged a coup de tat
and those who disagree are being executed.”
“Disagree about what?”
“Pater wants the complete
extermination of demons, but many of us feel that all demons should not be
executed or the humans that co-exist with them.”
“Ah, so you finally grew up?”
Kaede fingered her rosary in thought. “And you came to me?”
“Yes. We need to band
together,” Genjuro reasoned, “Pater is planning something and it will come to
your front door before you know it.”
A gray eyebrow arched. “Come
with me.”
“That was easier than I thought would be.” He walked towards the building Kagome entered.
“I will do what I can,” Kaede
replied as they walked, “but not for you, this is for my daughter and
granddaughter. And if I find out this is some sort of ploy, I will kill you
this time.”
“On my honor.”
“You honor means nothing to
me given our past,” she said simply walking inside the house.
He followed after her. “Then
I will do whatever it takes to make sure it does.”
