Chapter 2: The Past
Dream
She ran through a dark forest, trying to get away from whatever was chasing her. She quickly checked behind her to see if she could see it and tripped over a tree root sticking out of the ground. A scream escaped her as she crashed to the ground and felt a heavy weight land on her back.
End Dream
She awoke with a scream and looked around frantically, searching her room for any intruders. Seeing that it was all clear, she laid back down and tried to calm her erratic heartbeat and breathing. When she had calmed herself down, she tried to go back to sleep.
The next morning at the office, Kagome looked a little haggard. She'd had a hard time getting to sleep the night before and was restless all night. Several, if not all, of the people working under her tried to avoid her, knowing that she could have quite the temper when provoked. Kagome got herself a cup of tea and went to work in her office.
Hours later, Kagome looked at her watch, amazed that the whole morning had gone by with absolutely nothing happening except work. She smiled as she stood and stretched before going to get her lunch. She brought it back to her office and continued to go over papers. She quickly ate and completely focused on her work, answering whenever her secretary buzzed her.
Kagome was amazed when she looked out her open door and saw that almost everyone else had already left and looked at her watch to confirm that she should have left fifteen minutes ago. Kagome sighed and got ready to leave, shocked that nothing had happened to interrupt the work day. She happily got into her car, throwing her briefcase in the backseat, and started her trip home.
As she got stuck in the rush hour traffic, she took her coat off and undid the top two buttons on her white silk blouse. She turned on the stereo and popped a CD in, deciding she didn't want to listen to the sound of horns honking and cars running. She grinned as Linkin Park blared out over her speakers, and let her hair down as she loosened up to the music. Before she knew it, traffic was moving and she was almost home.
It was odd. That had been the first time that she had truly meant it when she called her apartment home. When she was younger she would have called something completely different her home. It felt like she belonged there so much better than she ever did in her childhood home. Her mother had graciously allowed her to do what she wanted and so she stayed in what she thought was her real home. She knew better now. It had never been her true home, just a sad excuse for one. A lone tear trailed down her cheek before she wiped it away and stopped anymore from falling.
She pulled into her parking space and turned the engine off. She sat in her car for a minute, trying to collect her stray thoughts. She slowly gathered her belongings from her 2003 Mustang, making sure to get her CD from the player, and went to the elevator. She pushed the button to call elevator and waited patiently for rir ride to come to her. The doors opened with a 'ping' noise, startling Kagome out of her daze, but only long enough for her to enter the modern machine and push the button for the tenth floor.
Another sound of 'ping' brought Kagome back to the real world as the doors opened to reveal the tenth floor. She stepped out and slowly walked towards her apartment, but suddenly stopped. Inutaisho Desumasuku was standing outside her apartment door, his suit jacket tossed over his shoulder, several of the buttons on his silk shirt undone and his khakis hugging his hips. She started walking again and walked right to her door, taking out her keys and unlocking her door. It looked like she was going to ignore him.
"What do you want?" Kagome asked Desumasuku.
"I wish to speak to you," he said, his voice smooth like cold silk.
"You should have done so while we were at the office. Now you will have to wait until tomorrow," she replied as the door started to swing open.
Desumasuku thrust his free hand out and stopped the door from opening completely. "I'm afraid this can not wait until tomorrow. It would not proper to talk to you about this at the office," he told her, staring directly at her.
Kagome turned startled eyes upon him and gasped when she saw them turn more gold for a second. She dumbly nodded her head and watched his face as he removed his hand from the door handle. Kagome looked away from him and quickly got her courage back as she entered her apartment, leaving her briefcase and jacket on a table by the door.
She left Desumasuku standing in the living room as she walked farther into her home, speaking over her shoulder. "So what is so important that it can't wait until tomorrow and you'd rather not talk about it at the office?" she asked as she went into her kitchen and got a few things out for a cold dinner.
She turned back to face her living room, expecting an answer to her question. She looked him in the face and nearly stopped breathing. Desumasuku now had long flowing white hair, intense gold eyes, crimson streaks on his cheeks, and a midnight crescent moon on his forehead. Inutaisho Desumasuku was now Sesshoumaru, Lord of the Western Lands.
Kagome stepped into her living room, completely stunned. A million memories flooded her mind and all demanded her attention at once, each one being pushed away only to be replaced by another old memory or new thought. She finally succeeded in locking all the errant thoughts away and glared at the youkai in front of her.
"You've lost your touch over the years," he said, his voice as cold as ever.
Kagome moved faster than even she thought she could and was suddenly standing directly in front of Sesshomaru, not even an arms length away, a red hand print forming on his left cheek. Kagome glared at him, anger burning deeply within her eyes. "Did you come here just to torment and insult me?" she asked in a hiss. "I know you. You saw me and you could have blocked that," she said, desperately trying to keep her voice down so that her other neighbors would not bother her. She knew that he had probably looked inside of her mind when he had revealed himself to her and saw all her heart wrenching memories. Out of anger, she raised her hand to hit him again.
Sesshoumaru caught and held onto her hand in mid slap. "I let you strike me once, do not presume that I will allow it again," he told her, his voice sending chills down her spine. "I did not come to torment you, as you so eloquently put it. I came to see you. I've been dying to touch you, even to just see you, for nearly five hundred years," he said softening his voice so that each word was a gentle caress to her ears. He took a small step forward, closing any gap of space that might have been between them before.
"Then why did you do that to me? Why did you push me through the well? I would have been more than happy to stay with you," she said between choked sobs, tears sliding freely down her cheeks. She curled in on herself and would have fallen to her knees if Sesshoumaru had not snaked an arm around her waist, holding her up, her body pressed firmly against his hard body.
"I did it to protect you. I would not have been able to live if you had died," he whispered in her ear. He placed her hand that he still held over his heart, just letting her feel it beating, and wrapped that arm around her waist. "I would not have done so if I had not thought this time period to be safer," he said quietly.
"So you punished me? Don't you think I knew that? It wasn't your decision to make alone," she said, tears still streaming down her cheeks. She looked up at him, staring at his liquid gold eyes. "What did you do with the Shikon no Tama?" she asked, her voice begging with him.
"I gave it to the baka," he told her.
"Inuyasha? So he's Hitori?" she asked and saw him nod. "Who is Teiru Gishi?" she asked.
He smiled gently down at her. "I didn't think you would recognize him. He has grown up quite nicely, don't you think?" he questioned.
Kagome looked at him, confusion running rampant in her eyes. "Who is he?" she asked.
"Your pup, Shippo," he told her, his smile gaining a little more confidence the longer he was with her.
Kagome looked to the wall that the two apartments shared, almost like she could see through it and see him. After a minute, she turned her attention back to Sesshoumaru. "Why didn't you find me before?" she asked, her voice cracking. She felt her body giving out from the shock and leaned against Sesshoumaru, letting him hold her up.
"I wanted to give you time, see if you would find another mate," Sesshoumaru said quietly. "Besides, if you were mad enough to hit me after all this time, just think of how mad you would have been if I had come earlier," he said, a small joking smile on his face.
"I wouldn't have been mad at all. I would have been happy that you were still alive," Kagome said listlessly. "But n~~o. You had to be a jerk and make me wait to see you. That's why you got smacked," she said, lightly hitting him in the chest. "And you should have gotten more than I gave you," she said, some energy returning to her voice.
Sesshoumaru snorted a little and hugged her closer to his body. "I told you why I waited," Sesshoumaru told her.
"You wanted to make sure I was faithful to you. You were suppose to be my mate, and you thought you had to test me," she said, her voice chiding. "I had accepted the fact that youldnldn't come back to me. I just never wanted another. I know lots of guys, youkai, hanyou and ningen, and I never once desired any of them. A few of the ningens asked me out, but I turned all of them down," she explained to him, matter-of-factly.
"You never wondered why any one of them with youkai blood in them didn't court you?" he asked. Kagome shook her head and then slowly, as she relaxed more, she leaned her head on his chest. Sesshoumaru rested his head on top of hers and brought a hand up to brush through her hair. "They smelled my scent on you. It is still on you, even now, after ..." Sesshoumaru said, but was interrupted when Kagome placed a finger to his lips and lifted her head. Sesshoumaru let her finger slip into his mouth and sucked on it a little before Kagome pulled it from his mouth, a light blush covering her cheeks.
Kagome felt some of her strength return and, after standing on her own, she tried stepping away from him. "I'm really pretty tired. I should get something to eat and go to bed," Kagome said as she put a little more space between their bodies.
Sesshoumaru let her step back, but left her within the circle of his arms. "Where do you think you are going?" he asked her as she tried to keep backing up, but was stopped by his arms.
Kagome looked away and blushed a little while she wrapped her arms around herself almost as if Sesshoumaru's icy gaze was chilling her. "The kitchen," she replied quietly.
"Okay," Sesshoumaru said as he picked her up and carried her into her kitchen. He then grabbed some of the things that she had set out and he sat down with Kagome in his lap. He sliced open a few of the packages and fed some baby carrots to her.
Kagome looked at Sesshoumaru while he fed her. After she swallowed her fifth carrot, he opened some broccoli and cut it up.
"You don't have to do this," Kagome said, looking away from him. "It's the job of my mate to take care of me, and since I apparently don't have one, I can take care of myself," Kagome said quietly, but she knew he could still hear her.
"That is where you are wrong," Sesshoumaru said, stopping in his actions. "I am your mate. I always have been. It was wrong of me to abandon you like I did," Sesshoumaru said, gently brushing Kagome's hair away from her face. After all her hair was out of the way, he started to caress her cheek, slowly moving his hand down her neck.
Kagome looked up at him with sad eyes. "I ... I ... There's been nothing to remind me except for painful memories," she said, tears welling up in her eyes.
�Why were they painful? We had plenty of good times together, didn�t we?� he asked, trying to catch her eye.
�That�s just it. In my memory, we were together, but when I woke up, you weren�t here. And it hurt, because I didn�t have anything to remember you with,� she said, looking away from him.
Sesshoumaru's hand had reached the junction of her neck and shoulders just under her shirt, and he just let his hand rest there, his thumb occasionally rubbing in small half circles. "Yes, you did. You just forgot about it," he told her as he lowered his head so that his forehead rested against her temple.
Kagome looked at him skeptically. "Just what is that?" she asked him.
"This," he said as he moved her shirt to the side to reveal a mark where his hand had been resting and moved his head so that he could gaze at the mark. "This proves that you are my mate," he told her as he lovingly caressed the mark.
Kagome looked at the mark as well as she could and then looked back to Sesshoumaru, awed. Kagome opened her mouth to say something, but was stopped when Sesshoumaru's lips came down on her own, soft yet firm.
He moved a hand to the small of her back to keep her on his lap and moved his other hand up to the base of her head. He used his hand on her neck to keep her mouth in place.
Kagome responded to the kiss and when Sesshoumaru placed a hand on her neck, she let him take complete control of her head. She felt more at home in his arms than she had anywhere else ever before. Each move of his lips was like a gentle caress of warm satin sending shivers down her spine and made heat pool between her legs. Kagome snaked her arms around his neck and moved so that she straddled his lap, moaning when she felt his hardness. When she felt Sesshoumaru nibble on her lower lip and then lick to sooth it, she opened her mouth a little, but closed it again to tease him. She knew what he wanted, but was going to make him work for it.
Kagome broke off the kiss, earning a frustrated groan from Sesshoumaru. "What about dinner?" she asked.
Sesshoumaru looked at her. "You're teasing me," he growled as he slid his hands down her body. His hands reached her butt and he squeezed causing Kagome to slide herself away from his hands and towards his hardened member. Sesshoumaru groaned when she settled more firmly on his shaft and looked at her and smiled when he saw her closed eyes. "Do you still want to have dinner?" he asked and smirked when she opened her eyes, startled.
Kagome just stared him in the eyes for a minute before answering him. "No, but this stuff needs to be put away," she said, looking over her shoulder to the food on the table and then back at Sesshoumaru.
Sesshoumaru looked her in the eye. "You go to your room. I will take care of this, and then I'll meet you in there in a minute," Sesshoumaru told her. He then leaned in and gave her a quick kiss on the lips before he set Kagome on her feet on the floor.
Kagome nodded and headed off to her room, an idea forming in her mind as she walked.
Sesshoumaru watched her go and when she was out of sight, he set to work putting the food away. He then headed in the same direction that he had watched Kagome go, quickly finding his way to her room
