A/N Thank you to all of you who reviewed! It’s been awhile
since I’ve been active on this sight so it’s exciting to know that I can still
do this! I hope you all enjoy this next installment. I’ll do my best to update
as quickly as possible but you know how it goes…that thing called school likes
to hang around and disrupt things. ^_^ Enjoy!
~*~*~*~*~
Kagome was trying desperately to stay calm. Don’t freak out, don’t freak out, it’s going
to be okay, don’t freak out, she pleaded with herself, it’s going to be okay. Trying to slow her racing heart she took
deep breaths but careful not to inhale too deeply, for her ribs were still
tender.
She stared, her gaze locked on to the golden eyes staring
back at her. She watched as those same eyes narrowed and tinged red. Oh my God, this is not happening, this is
not happening. She knew that the Lord of the Western Lands was her enemy,
but she never thought she would be in a position for him to slaughter her,
while defenseless and injured, without provocation.
Lord Sesshomaru was in a similar state of panic, although
one could not see this for the great demon was too proud to show such
reactions. Trying mentally to push his beast back, he couldn’t help but take in
her scent. Sweet like a cherry but refreshing like an apple all painted with
the putrid smell of her fear. His beast relished in the odor, growling in
approval in his mind, *I want her. She’s mine. She’s ours. No one else can have
her!* The great Lord continued to fight himself, even
when he unintentionally took a step towards the miko, causing her to cringe
back in uncertainty.
The only thing that slammed down his iron resolve was his
ward tugging on his pant leg, “Lord Sesshomaru, Rin wants to keep Lady Kagome.
Can Rin keep her, my Lord?” Staring up at him with innocent brown eyes, devoid
of any fear, the Lord was able to shove the animalistic part of him into the
back of his mind, to be dealt with later.
“This human is not our concern, Rin.” Glancing once more at
the injured woman, he turned to travel farther into the woods, far enough to
get the woman’s alluring fragrance away from him.
“But Lord Sesshomaru, Lady Kagome is injured and not able to
take care of herself. Can you not help her like you did Rin?” Seeing that she
had the Lord’s attention, the young girl continued, “Rin will take care of her,
promise! You, my Lord, will have no more burden than usual!”
Jaken chose this moment to interject, “Rin, the Lord said
no! You need to obey his wishes, if he decides he does not want this lowly
human near him you need to respect that!” The small frog like demon waved his
staff to prove his point.
After watching the interchange, Kagome found it would be a
good moment to speak up, “Lord Sesshomaru, if I could travel with you for but a
few days until I am healthy enough to progress back to the village, I would be
very thankful and indebted to you, my Lord.” She bit her lip in uncertainty,
knowing that if the Lord chose to abandon her there, she wouldn’t have very
long before she would be forced to fight for her life from the other demons in
the forest. Her miko blood was too powerful to not attract attention, and lying
as she was, injured and weaponless, she didn’t believe she had very much of a
chance to succeed with her life intact.
After hearing her voice once more, his beast rose to the
front of his mind with a ferocity that surprised him, *Heal her. Heal her and
then have her. She will be ours! What better way to gain her trust than show
her kindness. Then when she trusts us she will not object so much to being
mated!* Growling low in his throat, the great Lord argued with his beast, she is but a mere human. What good would
come of mating her? Besides, she is already the property of that tainted
half-breed. The Lord wished he could say that he felt nothing for the
human, but seeing as his beast embodied his emotions and instincts,
it was difficult to decipher which emotions belonged to whom. His beast argued back, *she does not bear his
mark! She is not his, and I don’t smell the scent of any other.* Appealing to
the Lord’s tactical side, the beast continued, *It’s just as well. If you mate
the girl, you may have a chance of getting closer to the hanyou, and therefore
ending his life before he can disgrace you further. The miko is also very
gifted, and will be strong in battle.*
Knowing for the time that the fight was lost, the Lord
acquiesced. “Very well Rin. But if she becomes a burden I will not hesitate to
leave her behind, understood?” At the girl’s nod, he turned his piercing gaze
to the dazed miko, “Human, if you so much as step wrong to slow me down I will
kill you, understood?”
Kagome swallowed heavily, and nodded her head. Awkwardly
struggling to her feet, with the help of the Lord’s young ward, the battered
woman carefully picked her way through the foliage after the Lord. She looked
down at the young girl smiling up at her, and couldn’t help but feel a sense of
hope that things would turn out alright. Besides, it wasn’t like Inuyasha cared
for her enough to come after her anyways. She was simply a shard detector to
him, and with her gone, he would be free to roam and kill as much as he wished
in his hunt for the Shikon no Tama.
Staring forward at the back of the demon in front of her she
pondered to herself over his reaction to her presence. He seemed to be
struggling with himself, and about to attack her. Then suddenly, it was as if
she didn’t exist. But when she spoke up again, his attention was riveted on
her, and if she wasn’t wrong, it felt like the Lord was ogling her. Shaking her
head to rid such silly thoughts, she thought to herself, He despises humans. All humans. There’s no way
that he was checking me out. No way that he could be
even the slightest bit attracted to me. Wow girl, you must have hit your head
harder than you thought. Thinking that HE could be interested
in ME. Smirking to herself, Kagome followed Rin through the dense
trees, hoping it would turn out alright.
