Author's note. I have been asked about Rin and the banquet she will be going to on Saturday
with Naraku. Well, this chapter ends on Wednesday night. I still have two more days worth
of writing until that event which is a turning point in the story. I still have two more
days to make this couple fall in love. I promise you, it will be worth the wait.
I have also been asked why Kikyo is so evil. Well, actually Kikyo is not really evil,( although
a certain spider tattooed hanyou might be) Kikyo is one of those haughty people who
think they know everything. She is extremely jealous of her cousin who is a fully trained
miko and plus (if you haven't figured it out already) she has been dumped by Inuyasha.
And poor Sesshy looks a whole lot like the man who jilted her. She wants to take out
her aggressive wrath on him, who she thinks of as more of an it than
a true being.

Now, on to the story.

Chapter 15: so close but yet so far

As Rin leaned into his touch, he beheld the strength of her declaration.

He could see it in her brown eyes and hear it in the sweet tone of her voice.

Simple.

Honest.

Determined.

She wanted to set him free.

And she believed she was going to.

The conviction of her statement came straight from her heart.

All at once, he felt something in him give.

She was his light.

She was his hope.

She was......precious.... to him.

The sudden need to hold the woman kneeling in front of him became overwhelming.

He needed to give something back to her, to embrace and show her how she
made him feel.

But this emotion scared the demon.

It ran wild within him yet tamed his soul.

It strengthened him but at the same time made him weak as a pup.
Rin smiled up at him and then leaned in, her arms wrapped around his waist as she laid her
head in his lap and spoke softly, "Thank you...for believing me."

He regarded her silently as his fingers threaded through the strands of her
chestnut hair.

He had been alone for so long.

No one for the past four hundred years had showed him true compassion.

No one had given so freely of everything they had for him.

No one cared for him until now.

Until this angel came.

Rin cared for him.

At that very moment he realized.

He wanted her.

He needed her.

If it came to it, he would die for her.

His mind spoke loudly the words he dared not speak openly.

The fear of her rejection kept him speechless.

For the moment, he would have to remain content to just be...

in her presence..

Then, the tender moment was interrupted by the rumbling of his stomach.

The female raised her head off his lap and leaned back. She smiled and quirked a petite
eyebrow.

"Hungry?"

He simply nodded.

The young woman before him grinned.
"Well, let's get all these clothes put up and I'll fix up something quick."

Rin got up and grabbed a bag. He raised up as well then helped take the rest of
the packages to his room.

After the closet and drawers were filled, they decended the stairs, then headed for
the kitchen.

While Rin set about taking items from the cabinets and fridge, he gazed out
the glass window of the back door. Looking out, he observed the trees swaying in the
afternoon wind, creating the peaceful mind set for his inner musings.

She had said he could stay if he wanted...
whether or not the curse placed upon him was broken.

He could live here.....with her....

Maybe even as mates.....

But would she consider him worthy?

Maybe more so if he were free.

He doubted very seriously that she would accept him while he remained her servant.

She would never formally mate with a slave.

His thoughts were cut shoy Riy Rin's sudden hiss and the scent of blood.

He turned to see the girl holding her left arm. Dark red blood flowed from a cut
on her wrist.

He walked over to the girl who was now running water over the injury.

Bright circles
rimsrimson swirled down the drain.

Gently, he grasped her arm and pulled it closer to him.

Rin was in pain.

He sniffed the cut, noting that it was not deep but a small vein had been severed.

Then, he proceeded to run his tounge over the small gash along her skin.

The coppery sweetness coated his tounge.

Closing his eyes, he savored the warm liquid while sucking lightly on her flesh.

His saliva numbed the wound and sealed it.

Rin's scent changed and her heart rate increased.

He inwardly smiled.

She liked what he was doing.

When he opened his eyes, he found her staring at him with flushed cheeks.

The pounding of her heart echoed in his sensitive ears,
loud enough for even a human to hear.

A look of wondered shock graced her features as her lips parted slightly.

She stuttered. "Uh.....I....uh.....thank you...."

He released her hand.

She stared at the now clean wound, her voice soft with wonder.
"I...didn't know...you could do that."

He remained silent...wishing she would step forward and act on what she was feeling.

But she turned away in a daze to finish her task.

They soon sat down to eat.

Rin seemed thoughtful during the meal.

When they had finished eating, Rin asked him a question.

"Sesshomaru, what else...can you do?"

"Do?"

"Uh...yes...what other powers do you have?"

"I have many, but most are....hampered...by the spell and my collar."

She looked puzzled. "What can you do now?"

With a deep sigh he looked away. "The only abilities I have left are my demon strength
and speed along with my heightened sense of smell and hearing."

Rin folded her arms on the table. "And what could you do....before?"

While gazing out the kitchen window, he replied.
"I could ride the wind in more than one form....I could summon the power for an energy
weapon....my claws sprayed poison...I could transform."

"Transform?"

He looked back at her. "Yes...into my full demon form, a giant white dog."

"A giant dog? How giant?"

"Roughly, twice the size of this house." he informed.

"Do you miss....those powers?" she asked, something akin to concern in her tone.

"Yes, Rin."

The woman before him fiddled with her fingers. "Sesshomaru?"

"Yes, Rin?"

Her voice lowered almost to a whisper. "What else does your collar do?...I mean..
you don't have to tell me..... if you don't want to..." she trailed off.

He swallowed hard and looked down. It was a subject he did not like to think about.
"It causes......pain....and only allows me to protect and serve my current master
and her blood relatives."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Rin Rin watched the youkai sitting in front of her who seemed to be getting uncomfortable.

"I'm sorry, Sess."

Sesshomaru did not reply, his gaze still on the table.

As she glanced at her watch and noted that it was seven o'clock,
Rin got an idea. "Sesshomaru?"

"Yes, Rin."

"Would you like to watch a movie with me?"

"Movie?"

"Yes, do you want to sit with me and watch a movie on the television?"

The youkai looked up. "Yes."

Rin smiled and gave a brief nod.

After cleaning up Rin went into the now dark living room.

She switched on the T.V. to the station she wanted then pulled Sesshomaru to the couch.

They sat down together.

While the action and adventure played on the screen, Rin snuggled closer.

The movie lasted until nine.

When the show ended, Rin looked up at him. "Did you like it?"

He gave her a small smile. "Yes, it was....nice."

Rin sighed. "Well, I got some things to do. You can do what you want. Watch more T.V. or
if wantwant, you could go get a book from the den."

Sesshomaru seemed to ponder for a moment then replied.
"I think I shall find a book and retire."

Rin nodded then rose from the sofa and headed for her room.

_____________________________________________________

Rin lay across her bed in her nightgown.

Even though she was tired from the days shopping venture, sleep evaded her.

Sleeping late had messed up her routine.

"Should of set my clock last night." she mumbled to herself.

So Rin decided to take the extra time and study Sesshomaru's newest set of papers.

As she flipped through the printed copies, Sesshomaru's certificate of
ownership slipped out.

She picked up the paper and looked at it. Rin shook her head.
She still had a hard time believing that she actually owned another person.

Reading the paper carefully, she happened upon the word used
to control or punish her servant.

Whoever came up with this type of control was certainly twisted in their own right.
Sesshomaru had said it had been a miko. Her mind almost uttered the B-word but she stopped
herself.

There was no use in getting angry over someone long dead.

Rin then noticed another word directly above the subduing word. It was in a different
language.

Without thinking, her mouth formed the word in question.

"Shi-me-ru."

Rin raised her head up. A strange muffled thump had come from the direction of
Sesshomaru's room.

She sat up on the bed. "Sesshomaru?"

There was no reply.

A little worried, Rin slid off of her bed and headed down the hall.

His door was open.

When Rin neared his room, she slowed down. Her fingers lightly touched the door
facing as she peered in.

What she found almost made her heart stop.

Sesshomaru was on his
hands and knees, dressed only in his pants and shaking violently. His silver
hair draped over his bare back and shoulders, while
his bangs hid his face from her view.

She caught a glimpse of his collar through the pearly strands.
It seemed to be coiling, like a black, shiny snake.

Frightened, Rin took a step toward him then stopped.

His hands, so normal before, were now razor sharp talons and were slicing
into the carpet.

She watched, helpless, as his convulsions continued and he bent lower, his nose
only inches away from the floor, his hair pooling under him.

Then, to Rin's relief, his spasms lessened.

She heard him gasp and take in a deep breath.

The sharp claws which had been rending the carpet and possibly the wood underneath,
retracted.

He expelled a harsh cough.

Rin watched in horror as tiny drops of dark red blood fell from his lips and onto the
cream colored carpet.

He trembled slightly then slowly crawled over to her,
his lowered bangs close to her bare feet as he spoke in a rough,
sickenly strangled, voice.

"What is your wish, Mistress?"

Rin dropped to her knees beside him.

She reached for him but he flinched away.....Then, he leaned toward her, laying his
head lightly on her lap, the blood from his lips staining scarlet spots on her white
night dress.

Rin swallowed hard and her voice quivered. "Sess, are you... alright....?"

The youkai's voice rasped out, hesitant and void of any emotion. "Yes....Mistress."

He then nuzzled his nose in her belly and his words
softened into a seductive tone. "What is it that you wish of me, Mistress?"

A terrible feeling began to creep up inside of her. "What..... happened...to.. you?"

He ceased his motions. "You punished me, Mistress."

Confusion and alarm hit her. "Punished....What.....?"

Then it dawned on her.

That word.....that word in another language.....was the original...

The word, constrict, was her translation.....

Rin shook her head as her vision blurred and her heart tightened in her chest.

'no...no....no...no '

Rin held him to her as her tears fell, sparkling on his silvery white bangs.

Burying her face in his hair, she began to sob.

She wailed in a pleading whisper full of sorrow and regret.

"I'm sorry...I didn't mean to say it....Oh God, I'm so sorry...
I didn't mean it......Forgive me....please....I'm so...sorry......please....

.....................forgive....... me."

Rin's forlorn cries echoed, trailing off into the night.
