Chapter 16: Startling Revelations
Sleep was great.
Sleep was a luxury that people often forgot about.
Sleeping was something she wished she could have done.
Instead, she spent the entire night laying there wide awake. Oh yes, and Kouga was there. After her reluctant reply that she was going to try, he had sucked at her mouth a bit more, and then, silence had befallen. What in the world was she supposed to say after that? She did not think there was a right answer. She did not think there could be a conversation after something like that. So instead, she turned to her side, completely silent, and he followed. He had wrapped a strong arm around her waist and he had nuzzled his face in the crook of her neck - like it was the most natural thing in the world - and he had fallen asleep. There had been a soft, sweet snore ever since but nothing else.
Despite everything that happened to him, despite all the pain and everything else, he had no problem falling asleep if she was in his arms.
It was those kind of actions that made her say yes.
Despite her reluctance.
It did also make her regret it. Kouga was a good person and she could not forgive herself if she hurt him, especially when he was this vulnerable. What if, it never became anything more? She already did not want to admit to the sort of feelings growing inside of her… what if she could never feel more for him? She knew he said he would be fine with it, but saying it and doing it were two completely different things. Then again he had persuaded her to agree to something she never thought she could agree with - trying with someone else. Did that mean her feelings for Inuyasha did not run as deeply as she initially thought? How could she possibly feel something for two people at the same time?
Her feelings for Inuyasha had hit her out of the blue… she had not planned on it and he had not really done anything particular to make her have feelings for him. But she did. Kouga on the other hand was on his hands and feet to try to please and woo her. It made her fear that everything she felt for Inuyasha - could come from Kikyo. And that was a heart breaking thought. She was different than Kikyo - they were two separate people and she did not want to share that in common with her. She wanted her feelings to be real.
Was it possible to simply… fall for someone else?
She groaned loudly than anticipated and then buried her face in the nearby furs. She let out a sigh, the soft mattress she was on tickling her nostrils.
It appeared that her stirring was too much because she felt Kouga's hand move to her stomach, palming it. For a moment she held her breath and her cheeks turned a bright red color. Kouga was really comfortable with the whole touching and closeness thing. She was not. Despite the amount of time she had spent traveling with Inuyasha, they were not big on the whole touching thing - it was even very avoided. Kouga was touching her like he had known her his whole life and - and he cared for her. Confusion 2, Kagome 0. How was she supposed to figure out anything when she was feeling like this?
Meanwhile her internal struggle did nothing to slow Kouga down on his path. He let his hand travel to her hip, resting in the little dip. He nuzzled his nose further into her neck, inhaling her divine scent. He wanted to die of happiness at this moment. When she spoke the answer he had been waiting for, he thought he had died and gone to heaven. He had hoped to have her by his side but he did not think she would actually agree to it. All of his efforts, all of his feelings; they had not been in vain. It was hard for him to contain all of the happiness that was bubbling inside of him. He had lost so much, that - having her. It was - it would be something. And he would hold on to her and he would never lose her.
Now that he could officially court her, he would not hold back. He would not press where he was not wanted and he would not skip steps but he would finally let all of his feelings show.
He could prove to her that he was the better choice.
He felt the goosebumps on her skin as his nose traveled to her ear. He nuzzled it, her hair tangling with his nostrils.
"Morning," he whispered in her ear with a husky voice.
She shivered in his hold and his smirk, his chest swelling with pride. This was what he wanted to do - every morning. That and other things. But they were not there yet. This was good too. His fingertips were twitching, dying to explore all the areas of her skin he had been teased with when they had been in the water but he decided to apply self-control.
"M-morning," she replied with an unsteady voice.
There was a fire inside of her, and each touch seemed to send her skin aflame. She wanted to sound articulate, but she could barely find her voice. Actually she could even hardly breathe - she just realized that she had been holding her breath that entire time. She finally let it out, her lungs thanking her for the exhale of air. She did hear Kouga chuckle in her hair and it only made her blush further. How could he be so in control of himself and his emotions while she was there, a mess of emotions? It was hardly fair.
And what did he want her to say?
So, hey fun conversation we had last night while you were attacking my lips?
Last time he had tried to woo her, she had slapped him. Things had changed.
Or actually - nothing had changed but her. He was still being the same person as he was when she met him. However, she was a little more open to what he had to offer than before.
He pressed a gentle kiss on the back of her neck, dying to attack her sweet lips again. She had let him do it yesterday, surely she would let him do it again right? He tried. He let his hand go up to her chin, he gently cupped it and then, he turned her head in his direction. He saw her eyes, wide open, but he tried to be as soft and gentle as he could. Slowly, he lowered his lips to hers and captured her mouth into a kiss. At first, she barely moved, like he was used to, but as time ticked away, she became more responsive. Once her body became less stiff, he used his hands to maneuver her. He tried to keep in mind that his speed was not hers, but she tasted like honey and his thoughts were slowly being replaced with all the things he could do to her.
Things that would convince her that he was the right choice.
He groaned against the mouth as he moved her back on her back. Her legs were closed, forcing him to remain away from where he wanted to bury himself. It left him with another option; he had to do the best with what he had. Inside of trapping himself between her long legs, he put his own legs each side of her. It allowed him to still press himself against her warm body while he sucked at her bottom lip. He felt her chest heaving with each breath she took, her plump breasts teasing his chest. He was mindful of his hands, making sure he was not pressing against her injuries - another good reason to not dive into her wet folds - and he touched cloth covered skin. And he wanted to know how it felt to touch her soft skin while having no barriers.
But not yet.
Kagome's legs were twitching but she was unable to move them as he trapped her with his body. Frustration rose in her and her arms lifted, only to wrap themselves around his powerful chest. His back was nothing more than pure muscle.
Kouga could not help himself as he dug his fangs into her lip - not enough to break the skin. He wanted to have her running her blunt fingernails across his back while he made her scream with pleasure. From the beginning, he had kept a good control on himself. Now? Now she could be his and now he was devouring her mouth - and now he wanted it all.
He had to pull away.
And he did. He tore his mouth away from hers, even though everything inside of him was screaming at him to stay. He could not.
At first she remained there, her eyes closed and her breathing out of control but after a moment, she noticed the missing warmth. She blinked once, and found him staring at her as though she was the most important thing in the world. Noticing their current position, she blushed even more - if that was possible - and was forced to look away.
"Good morning," she repeated again. God she sounded like an idiot. How could she not say anything but stupidities?
"Morning," he replied with a chuckle. "Are ya hungry?" He could hear the faint sounds of her stomach and he figured he should ask before her stomach made any sounds that might embarrass her.
She offered him a shy smile. "I could eat." Eating was good, eating made it that she would not have to talk because - because her mouth would be full of food - and that would just be rude. Yes. Eating was good.
"Wanna eat in here or out there?"
"Out there." The words slipped her faster than she anticipated and she hoped he would not take it the wrong way. Kouga was a very - hands on person and she was not sure she could survive being in here with him. Not that - it was bad - it was - it was just a little too much — too soon.
She waited for his face to change, for his expression to waver but to her surprise, none of that happened. Instead, he flashed her another smile. "I'll see what's there. Ya can come when you're ready."
He had wished he could have eaten here with her… but out there was not the worst thing in the world either. Now, he could show the others his new found claim. One they had been rooting for sine the very beginning. He hopped on his feet, semi-aware of the half erection he had going on and he bolted out of the den, leaving nothing more than a trail of wind behind. Kagome stared, wide eyed.
What had she gotten herself into?
-E-
The eyes.
She did not remember the pack having this many wolves in it. What in the world had happened? It was like everyone had come out to eat at the exact same time. It could not be. Surely, they did not always do this, did they? And it would not be that awful, if they were not all staring at her. It was like they knew what happened. Then again, it was a fair bet that Kouga might have shared a few information with the pack prior to her arrival. But what in the world could he have told him for them to stare at her like this? He had to have left out the uncertainty of the situation or they would not all be grinning like this.
She tried to focus on her own breakfast, holding up her little leaf as she waited for her meat to be cooked. Something they were not used to doing. Once it was finally ready, she stretched her legs back up and began glancing around in the hopes of finding somewhere she could sit. It should be easy but it was not. Despite all the time she had been spending with the pack, she did not know many of its members. And for some strange reasons, she could not locate the ones she knew; Ginta and Hakkaku. She was about to begin feeling like an idiot when she felt a hand on her shoulder. She nearly jumped out of her skin but then, Ginta's smiling face came into view.
"Hey Sis."
"Hey," she said with a small smile.
"Looking for Kouga?"
"W-what?"
"Don't worry, follow me."
Looking for Kouga? It had not really crossed her mind to look for Kouga. First of all, she assumed that since he had not been by her side while she waited for her meat, it meant he was busy. He did have a lot of responsibilities and she knew he was dying to get some answers out of Kei. Who was she to stand in his way? She would only stop him if he was about to make a very bad decision that could cost him his life. She would not allow him to kill himself - especially not over Naraku. That bastard had taken enough lives as it was already.
Kouga would not be another casualty.
Ginta was very mindful of where he put his fingers as he led Kagome through the crowd. It was hard to not be excited about this new development. They had all heard Kouga calling Kagome his woman but they had also seen the slap that had followed his declaration. They all loved her, and they all already called her sis but this was just making it a little more official. Of course, Kouga had not said much but the grin on his face and the scent on him spoke for themselves. They had all cheered and ever since then, everyone had wanted to gather around and see the intendeds. Which is why he found it so strange that Kagome was standing there by herself! She needed to be with Kouga so that he could show everyone that she was his woman to be.
He was probably just waiting for her wounds to heal. She was human after all and she was going to need all of her strength.
"Found sis," he said in a joyful voice as they finally arrived in front of Kouga.
"Hey," she said with a little wave of the hand. Apparently, there was no escaping the awkwardness. She would simply have to accept it.
Kouga looked at her while some blood dripped down his chin. He had been nervously waiting for her and he had even thought she had might not join him. She had appeared a little uneasy in the morning and despite how much it was killing him, he had meant to give her the space she needed.
"She was looking for you," Ginta said as he plopped down on the only available spot.
No she was not - but honestly she did not have the heart to tell him that. She could not even have a proper conversation with him since last night and she did not want him to get the wrong impression about anything. It was best if she did not speak. Instead, she looked around, trying to find somewhere else to sit.
Kouga fixed that dilemma for her. He reached out for her arm, wrapping his fingers around her delicate wrist and he pulled her down on himself. She followed without too much resistance, until she realized what it was he wanted from her. He wanted her to sit on his lap? She immediately felt her heart racing and unconsciously, she licked her dry lips. What was she to do? All pair of eyes were on her once more and she felt like they were waiting to see what she would do. Was her sitting on him something important? How was she to be familiar with wolves customs? And could she even have a second to process everything that was happening? She felt trapped and she was not sure how much she enjoyed it.
"Hm," she said bitting on her bottom lip. "Do I?" How could she formulate this when everyone was staring?
He saw the hesitation in her eyes and for a moment, his little happiness was threatening to be crushed. It was what mates and intended did. Eating was a vulnerable task. Everyone was sitting, nobody was on their guard. If someone attacked, they might not be that quick on their feet. By keeping her close to him, it ensured that he could protect her in the event that something did happen. He could shield her body with his, and in a worst case scenario, it would be her life over his. Which he was more than willing to do. Although, now that he was staring at her face he realized that maybe he had screwed up. She was human. It was probably not something human men did - and now - and now he was screwing up.
But then if she did not sit…
"To protect you," he finally said as he tugged her a little closer.
The surprise at his answer caused her to be momentarily distracted and she ended up straight in his lap. He pushed his mouth to her ear, much like he had done in the morning. "If you're closer, I can protect you."
She blushed, in front of everyone, but there was nowhere for her to hide herself. She was forced to let them all watched as shame overtook her. She quietly nodded and tried to re-focus her attention on her food.
Kouga could sense her uneasiness and he knew that once the meal was over, he had to talk to her. It was day one and instead of making progress he felt as though he was already losing ground. It had taken him so long to convince her that he was the right choice. He could not lose this privilege already. Although the others might get the wrong idea, he had to take her back to the den once this was over. Maybe if he shared with her, she would share with him and it would make all of this a whole lot easier. Kouga knew how to seduce a female but he was not quite sure his skills were on point when it came to human females. All he had ever done with them in the past was… eat them. And that was something he rather not think about at the moment.
He watched her quietly eat, her hair covering a part of her face.
For her, he would do anything.
-E-
"Kouga, wait."
Kagome had managed to hold her tongue during the entirety of the meal but it was something she could no longer do. Once everyone had finished he had lifted her to her feet and began dragging her away. Now that there was some distance between her, him and everybody else, she had to speak up. She had tried to not hurt him but now, she felt suffocated.
He did not want to stop, he wanted to bring her to the den, but he did not have it in him to ignore her. He kept her hand in his but he did come to a halt. "Yea? What's wrong?"
"I- I we need to talk."
Why did he not like the sound of those words?
"I - just I know what I said."
And she was about to take it back. No, this could not be. He had finally be given a chance, and he had finally gotten a taste of what it was like to be with her, to have her and she was about to take it all away from him. He could not. How could he plea with her?
She saw the panic form in his eyes and a ping of pain traveled through her heart. This was why she regretted what she had said. She did not want to hurt him - she did not want to hurt anyone.
"I - I just, I'm human." Dang it, she was usually a lot more articulate than this. Also, he had rushed her away quite fast, probably forgetting that her body was not on point yet. It was easy for her to lose her breath or to become exhausted. That made the whole talking thing a bit harder. "We don't work like wolves."
She was not ripping away his heart. She was having the discussion he had meant to have.
"I'm sorry." He used his grip on her hand to bring himself closer to her. "I forgot. I- I wanted to talk."
Talking. Talking and not touching. She could do that right? Yes. "Talking, talking?"
He grinned. "Yea." No, he wanted to cover her entire body with kisses, but talking would have to do for now. Unfortunately.
She let her shoulder drop down a bit, feeling a bit less tense. Alright, maybe a lot of the misunderstanding was on her; maybe if she had spoken up a bit sooner, they might have been able to clear up all the confusion. She was not one to internalize her unhappiness all the time, but this was a new situation for her, one that brought up a lot of guilt when she considered all the parties involved. But now was not the time to be thinking about Inuyasha. She had to talk with Kouga first.
Once they entered the den, he plopped himself down on the furs; they smelled like her and it was completely divine. She shyly joined him, but did not sit directly beside him; instead, she left some space. He did not force it.
"About earlier - it's a thing we do," he explained as he leaned back. "If ya sittin' on me, I can protect you."
Made sense, not that it was the most comfortable thing in the world. "It's just that human - aren't so touchy." Yes, they touched hands, they kissed - but - but usually, there was not so many displays of affections. It also did not help that she was not in her era. This was a time where young girls were married off - she came from a more modern world. Most girls her age were not longer virgins. And youkais especially appeared to be a bit more promiscuous than she was. Maybe Kouga did not understand her need for time and space and really could she blame him?
"Why not?"
Why - not? "Hm, because - we hm, we don't work like that."
Was that why Inutrasha had never made much of a move on her? Although he had touched her and kissed her a bunch of times and usually she was pretty accepting of it. Maybe she was overwhelmed?
"I know what I said, and I- I understand what you were saying. And -" Oh god, it had been in the middle of kisses and touching and - "I just need time. To understand it all."
He pinched his lips together but nodded. How was he supposed to woo her and court her and give her space at the same time? Giving her space was what he had been doing from that start.
"Can I show you?"
"W-what?"
"Can I show you why we do what we do?"
There were many underlying meanings to his words and she was tempted to say no. But at the same time she wanted to say yes.
"I'll stop when you want."
Alright, now it sounded even more sexual.
"S-sure." Nuzzling. Kissing. He had done that before right? She could handle that. Maybe it would help her understand and she would be less stiff. After all, they had a different idea of the world normal. Maybe she should understand his version of the world.
Immediately he smiled brightly at her, and closed the space that was separating them. Relief washed over him while he grasped her hand, something he had seen the humans do often. Perhaps if he did more things she was familiar with, it would become a lot easier for her.
Once she did not feel as nervous, he leaned towards her, softly touching his nose to her cheek. "This is to get your scent," he whispered as his nose traveled down to her jaw, to the column of her throat.
She felt a shiver - a good one - and simply nodded. Made sense.
He followed a path to her hairline. "And to put my scent on you."
"W-why," she stuttered.
"So others know you're mine."
She was never Inuyasha's. He never proclaimed her as such though he had said more than once that his life belonged to Kikyo. He was after all, ready to die for her. Kouga had no shame about saying she was his one and only. And although it did nothing to lessen some of the guilt she felt inside of her, she did enjoy that. Being everything to someone. It was a pull that was hard to ignore.
She might not know, but Kagome was letting off a divine scent and it was making him dizzy. Self-control, self-restraint. Those were things he needed to keep telling himself. But she smelled like heaven. And he wanted to taste every inch of her skin until he died. He lowered his mouth back down to her neck and grazed his fangs down the length of her neck. Her arousal spiked and he groaned against her skin.
What was that for?
"This is where we mark."
"Mark?"
She was trying to focus on the words but suddenly she was a little too aware of his hand, too aware of the heat coming from his body and the one forming inside her loins. She knew plenty of girls her age who had done plenty of make out sessions - some already had sex as well. Up until recently, she had still been at the first kiss step. And now? She felt like she was rushing through the steps. Too fast?
"Wolves mate for life." He had told her that already, and he had meant it. "Wolves are loyal." They did not hurt the one they loved. They cherished her forever - only her. Although, he did not want to bring Inuyasha back up, in case it ruined the moment. He only wanted her to think about the love he had for her. He had been holding back for so long that now, it was difficult. He wanted to show her everything all at once. If she could only understand…
Right there, right where his lips were, was her collarbone. He kissed it. And he knew what was lower; her beautiful breasts. He had some memories of them from the little incident. And he wanted them in his mouth. He wanted to suckle at them while she moaned his name loudly. A lot of his blood began to rush downwards and he knew it was a bad idea. Already running his fangs down her neck was too much for him. If he could have his way, he would have bitten her neck and left his mark for the world to see. He knew he was not where he was but - but something felt strange.
She could be shy.
She could be different because she was human.
But there were so many peculiar things about her that he did not even know where to begin.
Her clothes were one of them.
But - now he would chose to focus on the soft flesh near him. He let his hand release hers and he moved it up to her stomach. "Does it hurt?"
She shook her head. Pain was about the last thing she was focusing on at the moment. She did not know about modern time dating and she knew even less about feudal era dating. She was screwed. He was leading every interactions and she did not even know where to begin. It was the worse.
"Good." He moved his hand away. "Can I look?"
"WWHAT!"
Her sudden loud scream nearly rendered him deaf as he quickly backed away from her in an attempt to protect his ears. What in the world was that?
"No you can't!"
Oh. Oh. "I meant your injury."
Oh. Well now she felt kind of stupid. Although not really. How was he going to look at her injury without basically removing all of her clothes? She had the right to scream! Then again, she had been quite naked in front of him more than once. And the time in the water… it did not end up covering much. God was she always naked around him or what?
She wanted to die of shame.
"I wanted to make sure it healed alright." He would not look over the sensitive parts of her injury but he would at least be able to tell if everything was okay. A lot had happened recently and he felt like he had not properly checked up on her. It was his responsibility to do so. "You could just part it open." It was not like he was trying to expose a bit of her flesh. Maybe a little.
It was all part of a plan.
He was right. She could keep it tightly on and still show her stomach while her breasts and the rest were covered. She offered him a weak nod before she began pulling at her kimono, revealing the pale skin of her stomach. The sight she saw was one that was quite displeasing to her. Scar. It had healed fairly well, although some parts of what was visible were still closing. There would be no doubt about it - it would scar and her entire body would look disfigured.
A heavy scent of sadness coated their surrounding and immediately, a sense of a panic took hold of him. It did help when he noticed the tears forming in her eyes. Was she upset about the scar? Did she think it made her look ugly? A new rage flooded inside of him and he decided that he had to change her opinion about it. His eyes got cold and serious and he grabbed her chin with his fingers. He forced her to look at him. "You're beautiful Kagome."
He slowly bend down, being careful as to not scare her and he approached his lips to her scar. Very careful, he began laying kisses to cover it. He found no shame in her body and he did not want her to have shame in it. His lips were moist and warm and they sent tingles through her body. She could barely hold her own body up. He shifted on of his hand on the small of her back and helped lay down while he kept worshipping her stomach. Her scent was much stronger at this spot and every sensitize zones of her body that he wanted to explore was nearby. He wanted to lick everything and taste it all. But she was his main focus. She shook beneath him like he had all the power over her body and pride throbbed through him.
Tears spilled from her eyes but it was no longer about the damage that had been done to her body. It was about the relief washing over her. She had not said a single word and somehow he had known exactly what had been going through her mind. He had gone for it and he was throwing to send his love, his feelings, through her. He was trying to erase the bad and she did not even have to tell him that something was wrong. He listened to her, he was there for her. Her heart was heavy with emotions and she reached out for his face. She gripped the sides of it, pulling him away from her stomach. At first she was met with a bit of resistance but, eventually he let her pull him away. Their eyes met and he allowed her to guide him to where she wanted him.
She pushed his face towards her, his chin dragging along her soft breasts, promising teases and pleasures, and she only stopped when his nose hit hers.
How could she be so confused? How come it was so difficult to turn him down?
It had been easy the first time.
But the first time, she had not known him. He had simply appeared as a reckless, stubborn impulsive boy. Now, he was projecting a much different image - granted, it was a little darker at times but it was also sweeter.
She shyly reached forward and pressed her lips to his. It was a quick kiss. It was not filled with passion or desire. It was one that came from the heart. It also told her what she needed to do. If she truly felt this way, if she was truly considering this… she could not lie to him.
It was now or never.
"I'm from the future!"
"Huh?"
