_________________________________________________________________
A round of applause for my reviewers!
To my reviewers on fanfiction.net:

Sango Tajiya: Why haven't I updated yet? Well, you know the insane college life... :laughs nervously: Okay, okay, I admit it, I was lazy, but Econ majors need to maintain an insane average GPA, so... Anyway, yes, there will be more scenes involving Miroku and Sango, but since this is more centered on Inuyasha and Kagome, it is necessary for me to set the stage first. As for the lemon... I will try, but no promises, since I'm a suckie lemon writer.

lemon_luver: Longer chapters mean longer updates. Besides, I know extremely long chapters often turn readers off, so I'll probably be keeping the length constant at around 6000 words, plus or minus 300.

To my reviewers of mediaminer.org:

animeangel779: Thank you for your review. However, as I said before, I am terrible at writing lemons. Besides, I don't intend to turn this into a PWP.

To my reviewers of adulfan.nexcess.net:

mars: Why does Kagura want Kagome to live with them? Well, I can't tell you right now, because that would totally ruin the story. It might seem a little out of the blue right now, but she has an ulterior motive.

myrrdinowl: While Inuyasha does need to be kept in line, inviting Kagome to live with them does not have much to do with it. There is a different reason that will be revealed later on, much, much later on.

kaff_jam: Kagome is not seeking to get even with him - she wants to beat him. 1-Love (pun intended).

kiiro: Probably both!

]: While presently Inuyasha's sole desire is to get into Kagome's pants, there is no way he would be swallowing his pride just for a fuck. That would make him too OOC. Besides, Inuyasha getting mushy and teary-eyed just makes me want to regurgitate my last meal. He can and will be romantic, but none of that 'puppy-eyes' and 'I'll-die-if-you-don't-marry-me' trash. Inu-chan is above that.

animebaby01: Kagome is going to do a hell lot... Inuyasha won't know what hit him snicker.

Xainthe: Thank you so much for your review. I love getting reviews from authors I admire - it gives my ego a boost, which is something I desperately need now, after that insanely hard Econ test... Anyway, to add a story to your "Recommended Reading" list, all you need to do is to copy the story number, which is shown in the address bar, and insert the number shown (like this one is 544171915) into the neat little blank space aff has in your account.

Aly: Thank you, I am definitely female.

ivy: Lemon. Well, quite a few people have been asking for a lemon. However, I am worse than a novice when it comes to writing them, so I am a little hesistant. Besides, I don't have personal experience to go by (can you believe it? I'm 18, and I haven't even been kissed! Somehow, the guys who like me gross me out, and the two men I've liked... one has a girlfriend, the other treats me like a little sister), so I'm not quite certain whether there'll be one.

Scented Candles: Thank you so much! I'm really honored that you read my story! I hope you like this chapter.

PrincessSweetSugar: After such a passionate and heartfelt review, how can I not update?
I would like to thank Millenia2, VAB, Owari Nai Yumes, L Angelblood, WaterG, Lady Yue, Wind Pure Mistress, AnimePunk5243, Shattered MoonTears, TheeBycth, demongurl04, Inu miko, and Sango Tajiya for honoring me by placing me on their Favorite Author's list.

Also, I would like thank Owari Nai Yumes, L Angelblood, WaterG, AnimePunk5243, TheeBycth, demongurl04, Inu miko, aquaprincess1, and Alarnia for putting me on their Favorite Stories list.

On Adultfanfiction, thanks to fallenangel7583 (I strongly recommend her story "Curse of the dragon", it's awesome) and Scented Candles (I love her writing, too. It doesn't matter whether you're an Inu and Sess fan, she has something for everyone and her style just takes my breath away, just like her story "Breathless") for adding me to their "Recommended Readings" list.

Thanks to those who reviewed, and a special thank you to those who reviewed and added me to your favorites and alerts list. I'm guilty of not reviewing and just adding authors to my ever-growing list, but I still appreciate your people's feedback. You guys are great; I wouldn't have the determination to continue writing without your support.

Disclaimer: Didn't we already go through this? Oh well, yeah, yeah, I don't own Inuyasha, and stop laughing, you sadistic copyrighters!

Single quote and bold type indicate thoughts

...And finally, after all that, we can keep going on to the story!

The Seduction Game

Summary: Inuyasha Takahashi is the guy no girl can resist, but when he sets his sights on Kagome Higurashi, he has met his match. When the young girl outright refuses him and angers him, he swore that he would break her and ruin her life. But neither can deny their attraction, nor were they prepared for the burning passion that threatened to consume them both. Yet can love be born out of hate and a need to dominate?

The Seduction Game

Chapter Three: Meet the family!

_________________________________________________________________

Kagome sighed wearily, running her hand through her wavy hair, as the other one hugged her Economics book to her chest. Saying the day had been pure hell would be like saying the Great Wall of China is long. While having Sango in two of her classes had certainly been a relief, it also unfortunately left two classes when she was at the complete mercy of Inuyasha's insistent sexual advances. A slight blush stained her cheeks at the notion that the hanyou knew her body better than she did - or rather, knew the female body better than she did.

Speaking of hanyous... Kagome furrowed her brow, a little nervous as to where he was. He had disappeared right after the bell had rung, leaving her to her own devices in trying to locate the limo which the chauffeur would be picking her up with. A furious Sango had already left, chasing a grinning monk with a ten-pound book, swearing to break his fingers if she found them anywhere near her bosom again. She cast her eyes around warily, before a snarl caused her lips to curl as she caught a flash of silver.

The arrogant bastard was leaning casually against a wall, his backpack at his feet. One hand was resting inside his pocket, while the other was twirling the lock of hair of an innocent-faced freshman who was giggling madly. Kagome growled, not liking how the blond girl was staring at Inuyasha, or the suggestive movements of her body language, urging the silver-haired boy closer to her feminine charms. Not that Inuyasha was exactly doing anything to discourage her, either - in fact, he stepped even closer to her, his sensuous mouth curved in a gorgeous smile, and moved his hand from her hair to her cheek, gently caressing it, before leaning his face down to hers. That was the last straw for Kagome!

Angrily marching over, she grabbed Inuyasha's forelocks just as their lips were about to touch, and yanked them back, hard. Inuyasha let out a yelp, while the girl seemed confused as to why she wasn't in a lip-lock with the younger Takahashi brother yet.

"You asshole!" Kagome yelled, ignoring how some of the students stopped whatever they were doing and turned to stare at her. "Is it too much to ask that you do not try to seduce every girl you meet?"

Inuyasha grinned rakishly at her, freeing his abused locks from her death grip. "I am not seducing every girl I meet. It's just that..." He turned back to the freshman, trailing a clawed finger from her collarbone to the low V-neck of her sweater, resting it lightly between her ample breasts. "...Silvia here is so tempting that I just couldn't resist."

The freshman giggled again, the sound grating on Kagome's frayed nerves. "Not Silvia." She corrected. "It's Sophia."

Kagome shot Inuyasha a disgusted look. "Can't you at least remember her name, dog-boy?"

The hanyou ignored her, speaking to the other girl instead. "Sorry, Sophia." He sent her one of his killer smiles, and the girl nearly melted.

Kagome threw her hands up in frustration, her heart clenching uncomfortably to see that smile directly at another girl, so she tried to mask it with anger. "Hello?! I'm talking here! Don't just ignore me!"

Inuyasha let out a sigh, rolling his eyes upward. "Yes, mom, I remember my manners." He muttered sarcastically, "Kagome. I'd like you to introduce you to my new girlfriend, Sophia. Sophia, this is Kagome."

The dark-haired girl ignored him. "I don't give damn who she is or isn't, you are not bedding her! She's a freshman for heaven's sake!"

Inuyasha shot Kagome a scandalized look, before smiling charmingly at Sophia again. "Pardon me for a moment, darling. This will only take a minute."

Sophia nodded. "Okay, honey, I'll see you tomorrow. Bye."

She pressed a quick kiss to his cheek, and skipped happily off. Kagome shook her head, wondering how a college student could be skipping, barely aware that Inuyasha had grabbed her wrist and was pulling her off to some destination only he knew. However, her eyes grew wide as he pushed her into the boy's bathroom and locked the door.

"Inuyasha!" She screeched, pulling at the doorknob. "This is a boy's bathroom! Let me out right now!"

He regarded her futile attempts to escape coldly. "My family owns this building, so I have all the keys. Don't bother, the door is locked and will remain locked unless I decide to let you leave."

Inuyasha started pacing as Kagome sank to the floor, slightly nervous at being locked in the same room as Inuyasha. Who knew what he was capable of?

"What the hell were you thinking?" He hissed at her. "Who I fuck is none of your business!"

Kagome glared at him, matching his intensity. "She's just a little girl! You are too old for her!"

The hanyou snorted. "Too old? You got to be kidding, bitch. I'm only five or six years older than her. Besides, why do you care who I fuck?"

Kagome winced, the annoyance of his aura permeating the room and causing her to bite her lip anxiously, but his question sent panic welling up in her. Why did she care? The girl was obviously enjoying the attention, and she was of age. He wasn't doing anything illegal. "It's just wrong." She whispered, her voice shaky. "She's so young."

Inuyasha stopped his pacing, and smirked. He placed a finger under her chin, forcing her to look into his amber orbs. "There is no need to be jealous," he assured her, disregarding her protests, "I'd prefer you in my bed anyway." And without giving Kagome any time to object, he crushed his lips against hers. The kiss was powerful, dominating, bruising, while his hands settled themselves around her waist possessively, pulling her resisting body closer to his.

"Inuyasha... stop". Kagome pushed against his chest, her lips tightly shut, and tried to twist out of his arms. When he refused, she brought her leg up sharply, slamming her knee into his crotch.

Inuyasha tore away from her, cursing violently as he groaned in pain.

"Bitch!" He snapped. "What the hell did you do that for?"

Kagome shot him an annoyed look, flipping her hair over her shoulder. "I would believe that it would be quite obvious."

She turned from him to renew her struggles with the stubborn door, unaware how Inuyasha took the time to admire her form, the pain diminished to a dull ache because of his enhanced youkai healing abilities, though he still tenderly cradled his flaccid member. Her cheeks were flushed, her eyes sparkling with anger, her pale hands pulling and tugging the doorknob, and her chest heaving with the exercise. He imagined her on his bed, her face glowing with pleasure, her breasts rising and falling from the orgasms he had just given her, as her sweet hands stroked his manhood, coaxing it into another erection, and her eyes begging for another round. Inuyasha let out a curse as he felt his pants tightening. Had it been any other girl, he would have had her naked on the floor, her willing legs spread far apart for him, and relieved himself of the tension. But this was Kagome, the one girl who thought herself too good for him, the one girl he had desired and had refused him. He had to calm down, or he would resort to rape, and if there was one thing Inuyasha hated more than his brother, it would be men who forced themselves on unwilling women. Think cold thoughts, cold thoughts,' he chanted frantically to himself as Kagome stomped over to where he was standing, a finger poking angrily into his chest. Walking in the snow without shoes... er, no, I would get frostbite... uhm, going skinny-dipping in winter... Kagome naked in water... Sesshoumaru tearing a hole into my gut... Kagome soothing it with her hands... It was all Inuyasha could do to stop himself from releasing a frustrated howl. The 'thinking-cold-thoughts' theory was so not working! Maybe I should just become a eunuch, he thought, but promptly rejected the idea because of the pain. He brought himself to the present, just managing to understand what Kagome was saying to him.

"...chauffeur find me if I am locked in the boy's bathroom?"

Inuyasha frowned. "Chauffeur, what chauffeur?"

Kagome rolled her eyes. "The guy that is supposed to pick me up to inspect the room Ms. Kaze offered me."

Inuyasha continued to frown, pulling his cell-phone out of his pocket, speed-dialing a number as he corrected her. "Ms. Takahashi. She's already mated to my brother, making her his wife in youkai terms."

Kagome wasn't given a chance to reply as someone answered the phone.

"Why the hell wasn't I informed that someone is picking up Kagome?" he roared into the ear-piece without a greeting.

Kagome couldn't hear what the other person was saying, but whatever it was, it displeased Inuyasha as he continued to growl. "Well, tell Kagura to keep the fucking chauffeur home. I'm bringing the bitch." More silence. "No, it's not the blond bimbo from last time. Yeah, yeah, and don't bother me for the next two hours."

He smirked as he stared at a dumb-founded Kagome. "You are riding with me," he informed her smoothly as he hugged her rigid body from behind.

Kagome stiffened as his claws gently rubbed her stomach, his hips pressing suggestively against her ass. A shiver ran down her spine as she felt him place open-mouthed kisses along her neck. "Kagome, you shouldn't have kneed me." he whispered, his voice dark, though his caresses stayed tender. "You won't like the punishment."

"Let go of me, Inuyasha." Her voice was quiet, but forceful. The hanyou had to hand it to her, she was strong. He would have fun breaking that strong-willed spirit.

He released her, and unlocked the door, grabbing their backpacks. "Come on, we've two hours before Kagura expects us. So any place fun you want to go?" He wiggled his eyebrows in a suggestive manner.

Kagome let a smirk cross her face, her will returning. Oh yes, payback's a bitch. "The Library!" She announced enthusiastically, and before Inuyasha could protest, she had marched down the hall, leaving a groaning hanyou no other choice but to follow in her wake.
_________________________________________________________________

Inuyasha let out a loud groan as Kagome returned to their desk, rubbing her sore shoulder muscles from pouring over the books in a hunched-over position for two hours flat. With a weary sigh, she hosted her backpack on her shoulder, waltzing out of the library with a relieved Inuyasha on her heels.

"Remind me to change my topic for the essay tomorrow." She commented the minute they were out of the door. "Who knew researching modern methods of mass destruction could be so boring?"

Inuyasha smirked despite the two torturous hours he'd just spend in absolute boredom. "It's your own fault. After all, you wanted to go to the library for a 'fun' place. Researching with a book is always boring."

"How else am I supposed to do my term paper? The library don't allow students to access online resources unless explicit permission is given by a teacher."

"There are certain subjects that don't need research."

Kagome raised an eyebrow, surprised. "Which ones?" she asked eagerly. English Writing II was only a GE course, and if she could get a good grade without studying... so much the better. However, the gleam in the amber orbs as he stared at her made her regret her words.

"Well, if you wrote your paper on the modern hanyou's physical aspects..."

Kagome groaned. "Don't tell me. You were willing to give me a 'hands-on' experience."

"Not 'were', hon. I am and will be willing."

Inuyasha neatly dodged the heavy book bag she swung at his head.

Kagome pouted. "Damn hanyou reflexes."

Inuyasha grinned. It seemed that after all that studying Kagome was in a playful mood. He needed her to relax, to lower her guard, or otherwise he would never get her into bed.

"Wanna go and grab a bite to eat?" He offered.

Kagome stared at him strangely. "Why are you being so nice?" She asked, her head cocked adoringly to a side like a peacock.

"Keh." He snorted, unsure how to answer that question. With a shrug of his shoulder, he replied, "Well, we still have some time before I have to get you home, and I'm hungry."

Kagome laughed, "I could have told you that." she shook her head. "Boys. They are always hungry."

Inuyasha grinned, his voice low and husky. "I'm no boy, Kagome. If you'd let me, I would show you just how much of a man I am."

She looked away, flushed, and biting her bottom lip.

"Thanks, but no thanks." She tossed her hair over her shoulder. "So, Inuyasha, where did you want to go?"

The hanyou smiled, not at all bothered by her change in subject. "I was thinking about the hotdog stand, and then maybe dessert at the Crown Fruit Parlor?"

Kagome shook her head. "A hotdog sounds good, but anything on Crown Fruit Parlor's menu is out of my budget limit."

Inuyasha snorted. "That's not possible. You are a Higurashi. Your outfit cost probably more than the annual maintenance price at the Parlor." He pointed out, eyeing her pristine white shirt with a see-through blue cashmere and a knee-length skirt.

Kagome turned red in anger. "Just because you don't have a limit on your credit card doesn't mean my parents give me an unlimited allowance."

Inuyasha shrugged, his eyebrows rising in surprise. "You don't have to get angry, I wasn't implying anything. If you don't like Crown Fruit Parlor, we can go somewhere else."

The light returned to Kagome's eyes, the anger forgotten. "How about Bruin Cafe?" She asked eagerly. "They make the best milkshakes and smoothies!"

"Bruin Cafe it is." He smiled, striding toward his red Ferrari. Kagome's jaw dropped.

"Oh my god." She whispered, admiring its sleek form and powerful figure. "Is this what I think it is?"

Inuyasha smirked, patting the car lightly. "Yep, that's my baby."

Kagome turned wide eyes on him. "But that's a 2005 Ferrari 612!" She exclaimed. "The price ranges from $247,850 - $259,855!"

Inuyasha looked impressed. "Wow, you definitely know your cars."

Kagome didn't hear him, still staring at his car. "I just hope my brother doesn't meet you, or he and Kohaku will start a male-dominated Inuyasha Takahashi fan club."

"Oh?" he asked, his curiosity piqued. "And why is that?"

"He's totally in love with this car. He's been asking my mother for one like that ever since it came out. Not to mention you are literally Kohaku and Souta's role model."

"Poor kid, having me as a role model!" Inuyasha laughed before his brow furrowed. "Wait, did you just say Kohaku? Kohaku Kuwajima? Sango's younger brother?"

"You know him?"

Inuyasha unlocked the passenger door. "Yeah, the kid practically hero-worships me. Then your brother Souta must be the friend he keeps telling me about." He smirked evilly. "It'd be nice having a fan-club that doesn't have members racing to hop into bed with me. I have to meet your brother. As you for my roommate, I don't think it'll be a problem."

Kagome resisted the urge to band her head against the window. "Oh, brother!"
_________________________________________________________________

Inuyasha cursed violently as he stared as the long line of unmoving cars before him. How could he have forgotten that six o'clock was rush hour? Not only that, but apparently some fool had went and crashed, thus causing the already slow moving line to completely stop any movement it previously had retained. He snuck a glance at the content girl beside him and almost smiled. She had devoured two hotdogs like she hadn't eaten in three days, yet was still slowly sucking the vanilla milkshake she had gotten. Her voice brought him out of his reverie.

"Hey, Inuyasha, could we listen to some music? I've some CDs in my bag, if you don't mind..."

Inuyasha waved a hand dismissively, "Go ahead. I don't mind."

She smiled happily, and cheerfully went through her bag before pulling out a case and choosing a disk. She popped it in the CD player in his car and a vaguely familiar tune flowed out. Kagome began to hum and sing softly, her voice enrapturing him.

I was walking down the street one day

And when I saw you, I didn't know what to say

Your eyes were shining, your smile was so kind

And when I saw you, I wanted you to be mine.

Inuyasha neared reeled in shock. He knew that song, knew it very well, and the words struck closer to home than he was willing to admit. The song, 'Girl in my Dreams', had been one of his favorites, and the first verse seemed to apply to Kagome and himself perfectly. She was beautiful, and he wanted her bad. Kagome was unaware of the thoughts running through his mind, still quietly singing away.

Maybe I don't have the blond hair you like

Or maybe I don't have eyes like the sky

And now I'm not sure if I'm the girl in your dreams

But I can show you what love means.

Inuyasha almost smirked. It seemed as if the perspective had switched, but the woman singing was right. Kagome wasn't the normal blond, blue-eyed bimbo he went for as a one-night stand - she was the opposite. And he had no doubt that she indeed could show him was love was. A bitter smile crossed his features. A girl as pure as her would never love him. Lust, need, those were the sensations he was familiar with, sensations he would evoke in her, but love? He nearly snorted. Yeah right, the day an archangel falls in love with Lucifer is the day Kagome decides to love me. Face it, Takahashi, it's the money, power, and looks that keep women near, not because they are desperately in love with you. His attention shifted back to the song.

One day you came and talked to me

And you said, we are meant to be

I was happy, everything was so nice

But then I found out, that everything was a lie.

This time, the perspective hadn't shifted, it seemed to stay on Kagome, and Inuyasha was seized with a temptation to rip out the CD and shred it into enough pieces that even Sesshoumaru would quake at. He was the one who had tried to entice Kagome, the one whose words had always been a plot to get into her pants, the one who was deceiving her.

Maybe I don't have the blond hair you like

Or maybe I don't have eyes like the sky

And now I'm not sure if I'm the girl in your dreams

But I can show you what love means.

How could you do this to me?

You said we are meant to be

You showed me how to cry

when you told me everything was a lie.

Inuyasha bit the inside of his cheeks, his conscience still taunting him with mental images. He knew he was a heart-breaker, but the idea of Kagome feeling any kind of pain made something inside him hurt. No one as pure and loving as the girl next to him should be stained by tears or tainted by the ugly things in life. He wanted to protect her from everything, but his competitive nature would not let her go. One sentence kept running through his mind, Can I protect her from myself, though? That last thought made Inuyasha want to bang his head against the steering wheel and hopefully pass out. He hadn't talked to the chick for more than a day after being ignored for ten years, and already he acted like she was his mate. Inuyasha froze. Mate, the word wouldn't leave him, and it scared him like nothing else could. Sure, the girl smelled tantalizing and could resist him like no one, but that was not enough to determine her as his immortal mate. He mentally shook his head. I have to get her out of my blood, and if the only way is to rut with her, then so be it!

Maybe I don't have the blond hair you like

Or maybe I don't have eyes like the sky

And now I'm not sure if I'm the girl in your dreams

But I can show you what love means.

Love me

Or maybe I don't have eyes like the sky

And now I'm not sure if I'm the girl in your dreams

Love me

Love me

The song slowly drifted to an end, and Kagome's voice faded with it. Inuyasha could barely contain the sigh of relief. The song brought on too many questions and images he wasn't ready to face yet. The next song came on, and he grinned, positive that this one wouldn't give him some unfathomable feelings to deal with.

I hate the world today

You're so good to me

I know but I can't change

Tried to tell you

But you look at me like maybe

I'm an angel underneath

Innocent and sweet

He shot the girl sitting next to him a grin. Kagome may look like an angle, but her fiery temper could make the demons in hell cower in fear.

Yesterday I cried

Must have been relieved to see

The softer side

I can understand how you'd be so confused

I don't envy you

I'm a little bit of everything

All rolled into one

Inuyasha had to stop himself from snorting. 'Kagome' and 'crying' well two words that simply did not fit together in his vocabulary. Besides, what was that bit about him being confused? Women were confusing creatures, period. The female mind didn't work the way the male mind did.

I'm a bitch, I'm a lover

I'm a child, I'm a mother

I'm a sinner, I'm a saint

I do not feel ashamed

I'm your hell, I'm your dream

I'm nothing in between

You know you wouldn't want it any other way.

Yep, Kagome definitely was everything. He shook his head, waiting patiently for the end of the song. As the last remaining strings of 'Bitch' faded, he smirked at Kagome.

"Describing yourself, huh?"

Kagome shot him an annoyed glare. "No, I just like these songs. But since the music I like is apparently too deep and 'girly' for you, we can listen to some of your CDs." And before Inuyasha could stop her, she had pulled out the first CD lying on top of the stack. The hanyou flattened his ears, waiting for her reaction. He expected a disgusted scowl or a scream of shock, but never a squeal of delight.

"Mozart! Beethoven! Haydn! I can't believe it! Who knew you were a classical music lover under that tough exterior?"

Inuyasha grimaced, and sighed. "Don't tell anyone." He cautioned. "Or my reputation will be ruined."

Kagome gave him the evil eye. "What reputation? The reputation that you can get any girl you want? Or the reputation that you're a total asshole and a playboy who will fuck anything with boobs?" She snapped, a slight edge to her voice.

Inuyasha sighed again, praying that he would get home soon, or he wasn't sure if he'd able to stop himself from killing the vixen next to him. A look of disgust flashed across his golden eyes for a moment. Ewww, I'm not sure I want to fuck a corpse. He was sorely tempted to get on his knees as the line suddenly clearly, silently thanking whoever had heard his prayer.

"Shut up!" He snarled as he floored the gas pedal, and Kagome screamed as the car shot forward.

"Bakamon!" She screamed at him the minute she got her breath back. "You bastard! What the hell was that for?"

Inuyasha didn't reply to her angry tirade until they reached a deserted country road and he slowed, cruising along leisurely.

"Your anger makes you much more desirable." He whispered, his voice husky, and shot her one of his famous smirks. "Sekushi."

Kagome became even angrier, her eye twitching. She opened her mouth to scream at him again when he suddenly pulled over.

"Not one word, little girl." He snarled, all the humor gone from his eyes. Kagome gulped, her muscles tense as she saw the anger flaring to life. What had brought on this change?

"What- what are you doing?" She mentally cursed herself as her voice wavered.

"I've been more than patient with you." He growled, and something besides anger flew briefly across his face. "Do not move, or speak, or I won't be held responsible for my actions."

Kagome gasped, her eyes widening as they unconsciously landed on his lap. "Oh." she whispered, and mentally smacked herself as nothing more intelligent came to mind.

"Don't test me, bitch." Inuyasha warned. "Unless you want me to pull over and make you scream until you're hoarse."

Kagome swallowed, his words sending a jolt of electricity through her body. She nodded, throat too dry to speak, as Inuyasha started up the car again, praying to Kami that they would arrive soon.
_________________________________________________________________

Inutaisho briefly paused in his work, but refused to look up at the knock that sounded behind his heavy oak door.

"Enter."
His deep voice rumbled as Sesshoumaru stepped into his study.

"Father." The younger youkai bowed. "You called?"

Inutaisho sighed, finally putting away his reading glasses as he regarded his older son. "I did. Give me a thorough background on the girl you picked, this... what's her name again?"

"Kagome Higurashi." Sesshoumaru responded, seating himself in the leather chair as his father indicated him to with a sweeping motion with his hand.

As Sesshoumaru finished his narrative, Inutaisho glared at his son. "A miko, you say?" At Sesshoumaru's nod, he stood up, and started to pace. "What in the world possessed you to pick a miko of all the possibilities? A human miko, at that!"

Before the younger youkai could defend himself, a soft voice sounded behind him that made the great Taiyoukai cower in fear at the silken steel lining the tilting sound. "Is there something wrong with being human, honey?"

Inutaisho swallowed as he stared at his beautiful wife. "No, not at all. It's just that she's a miko..."

Izayoi stepped forward, the slippers making a hushing sound on the rich Persian carpet. "Have you made the necessary preparations?" She inquired, her eyes finding Sesshoumaru.
"Yes, mother." He replied respectfully. Izayoi (A.N. Her name is the one given in Inuyasha, the third movie. I believe the title is 'World Conquering Sword'. Izayoi is translated, to the best of my knowledge, as 'sixteenth night') was not his biological mother, but she had cared for him like her own son, and he loved her dearly. The stoic youkai internally smiled, amazed how such a fragile-looking woman could inspire such humbleness from his father, the great Taiyoukai of the West.

"They should arrive soon." The gentle, husky voice caused three sets of eyes to turn to the young woman who had just stepped into the room.

"Kagura." Sesshoumaru greeted, staring at his mate in appreciation. The wind youkai was dressed, as usually, impeccably. The long-sleeved white shirt clung modestly to her upper body, and her black silk vest matched her dark pants, outlining long legs and shapely muscles. Low heels completed the comfortable look with a touch of elegance.

"They were supposed to arrive after school, but Inuyasha called and told the butler oh-so charmingly to tell me - as he said, and I quote - 'to keep the fucking chauffeur home' because he would be bringing the girl. Knowing Inuyasha, he is always fashionably late. At least two hours, anyways." Kagura continued, a slight smile dancing at the corners of her mouth.

Inutaisho shook his head, gazing fondly at his daughter-in-law. "Thank God he doesn't use that tactic when it comes to business meetings. Were you there with Sesshoumaru this morning, dear?"

Kagura affirmed his assumption with a nod of her head as she sat in the only remaining chair. Sesshoumaru growled at her, not pleased that she would act to casually in front of Lord Inutaisho and the Lady Izayoi, but Kagura purposefully ignored him. "You'll like her." She assured her father-in-law. "Kagome is a very sweet girl, high-spirited with a free heart. She appears to be fiercely loyal to her family and friends, and her moral standards make me wonder why she wasn't hired to teach all those sluts at Shikon University about Health and Protection."

"Kagura. You know this kind of language isn't tolerated at this house." Sesshoumaru rebuked her. He loved his mate dearly, but sometimes the woman was too head-strong for her own good, not to mention she absolutely despised authority and propriety after living with her father - Naraku - for 18 years.

"Chill out." Kagura answered carelessly, shrugging her shoulders. "After dealing with Inuyasha on daily bases, you should be used to this kind of profanity."

Inutaisho chuckled. "Yep, that's my son alright. I sometimes wonder whether I should have allowed so much freedom in that boy's upbringing."

Both Inutaisho and Sesshoumaru stiffened suddenly, and the younger youkai sniffed delicately. "Inuyasha's home." He announced, and seconds later, even Izayoi could hear the iron gates open to allow the car inside the courtyard. There was a sound of doors slamming violently, and seconds later a shriek from outside made both Inu youkais wince.

"You idiot!" The exclamation was followed by a string of curses and growls.

Kagura laughed. "Yep, that's Kagome and Inuyasha alright." She disappeared from sight to greet their new guest.
_________________________________________________________________

Kagome stared open-mouthed at the tall mansion looming behind the iron gates. The front yard - if it could even be called that, since it resembled more the city park than anything else - consisted of neatly kept lawn, a huge stone fountain with four stone dragon heads spurting crystal-clear water into the air. She stared avidly, fascinated with the design and detail engraved.

"The fountain was a gift from Ryou, Lord of the Southern Lands, to commemorate my father's victory over one particularly nasty piece of scales." Inuyasha commented with a cheeky smile, noticing her interest.

"Fascinating." Kagome whispered, her eyes never leaving the fountain.

Inuyasha grinned." You haven't seen the best part yet." He turned off the engine, pulling a startled Kagome from the passenger seat into his lap. "There is a private swimming-pool on the seventh floor designed especially for when I wish to go skinny-dipping." He breathed seductively. "Perhaps you will join me sometime."

Kagome smile sweetly, too sweetly. She grabbed his collar, pulling his head down to her level. After aligning her mouth with one fuzzy ear, she took a deep breath, and screamed with all her might.

"You idiot!"

Pushing him violently away from her, she agilely climbed from the car, glaring daggers at the hanyou who had followed suit. She clenched her eyes, firmly willing away images of a naked Inuyasha with water dripping down his body from her over-imaginative mind.

Inuyasha shook his head, trying to dispel the ringing resounding in his mind. He flicked his ears, praying to every god alive that he hadn't just lost the use of a very important part of his anatomy.

'Kami, this girl is dangerous to my health!' He growled. 'First she slaps me, twice, stomps on my foot, and knees me in the balls. And now... I swear I'm deaf in one ear. I'm starting to wonder whether it's worth going through all that trouble just to get into her pants.'

He briefly considered giving up, but the inherent Takahashi pride would not allow him. 'Payback's bitch.' He snarled. 'You just wait, Kagome. I'll have you bloody for this.'

It was completely in his right to discipline his mate for her disobedience. Inuyasha froze. 'Mate. No, not that word again. What's about this bitch that has me strung so tight? She is NOT my mate!'
_________________________________________________________________

Kagura opened the sturdy redwood doors, staring in surprise at the two frozen young adults who were busy trying to kill each other with their glares. If gazes could truly kill, Kagome would have been ablaze at best, and a pile of smoldering ashes at worst. Inuyasha, meanwhile, would have either frozen to death or have lost certain vital areas due to frostbite.

"Hello, Kagome. I see Inuyasha has managed to bring you alive and in one piece." Kagura greeted, surprising both of them out of their heated death match.

"I wouldn't exactly say one piece." Kagome muttered, shooting Inuyasha a last venomous look, before her whole countenance brightened. "Kagura!"

Kagura smiled, hearing Kagome's words. "Welcome to the Takahashi mansion. Come in, and then let's see your room, shall we?"

The younger girl nodded eagerly, wanting to see the inside of this place. Knowing the family's taste, she had no doubt that it would be breathtakingly beautiful. She steeped gracefully to the tall woman's side, bowing in respect. Kagura laughed.

"If you are intending to live here, Kagome, it would not be fitting for you to be bowing every time you see me. Let's go, let's inspect your room first, and then I can give you a tour of the house, since I am certain that Inuyasha told you that all the facilities and utilities will be shared."

Kagome nodded wryly. She still remembered Inuyasha's suggestion of sharing more than just the commodities outside their rooms. She slipped her soft sandals from her dainty feet, and was about to follow Kagura when another voice stopped the wind youkai's movement.

"I'll do it."

Kagome nearly moaned in self-pity. 'Fate is definitely out to get me.'

"Well, it looks my son has finally learned some chivalry." Another voice commented, and Kagome's head snapped up to watch as one of the most beautiful woman she had ever seen descend the stairs. Kagome recognized her immediately. This was Lady Izayoi, the mate - or wife - of Inutaisho. Kagome had seen her picture often in magazines, and had admired her for a long time. Izayoi was known for her gentle countenance, graceful manners, and keen mind. Her wealth was incomparable, but she never appeared gaudy or showy, choosing instead to help fundraisers for numerous worthy organizations. To be able to meet her in person, was a dream come true for Kagome. She had barely opened her mouth to reply a greeting when two more people following Izayoi appeared. One was Sesshoumaru, the other undeniably had to be Inuyasha's father, as the man had both the golden eyes and silvery mane of both his sons, not to mention Kagome had seen him in many photographs with Lady Izayoi. He was chuckling.

"Inuyasha was always chivalrous - as long as it included a pretty girl. He has inherited my charm and appeal."

His wife growled at him. "You mean, he learned a few pick-up lines from you and followed in your foot-steps concerning women."

"Mom! Dad!" Inuyasha sounded scandalized.

Izayoi stepped forward, ignoring Inuyasha, and embraced the dark-haired girl warmly. "You must be Kagome. I am glad Inuyasha does indeed have good taste. I was rather worried after seeing the array of his wardrobe. One would believe he was color-blind." Lady Izayoi smiled, and fondly patted Inuyasha's head even though the hanyou was taller than her.

Inuyasha blushed, mumbling something as he over-looked Kagome's puzzled glance at his mother's comment at his taste. Kagura, however, noticed, and correctly interpreted the reason for it. She took it upon herself to explain, much to the hanyou's chagrin.

"You are the first girl he has brought home. If too many people knew about this little remote cozy country house we like to call home, you'd see hordes of reporters and screaming fan girls outside. The address known to the press is the hotel we usually stay in when we need to make a public appearance. That's the one where we need to hire a horde of bodyguards just to make it to the lobby without getting trampled over. That's also where Inuyasha usually takes the girls for his one-night treatment." She scowled. "You should see some those things. The way they shamelessly throw themselves at Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha makes me want to gouge their eyes out."

"But isn't Sesshoumaru-sama already mated to you?" Kagome ventured. She trusted and liked this woman with her direct way and bold spirit.

Kagura snorted. "That doesn't matter to them. All they see is a desirable rich man, and they want him. All they care about are his face, his bank account, and his fame."

"Enough, Kagura." Sesshoumaru laid a gentle on her shoulder. "You make me sound like a piece of meat at the butchery. I do hope I'm worth more than that." Though the expression on his face didn't change, the softer tone alerted everyone present just how much he cared about his mate.

Kagome listened with half an ear, fidgeting nervously under Inutaisho's gaze. She breathed in relief as he finally smiled. Grasping her hand firmly, he gave it a shake.

"Inuyasha, her room is the rose room, second door on the left, third floor."

Inuyasha gave a respectful nod, and was about to step into an adjacent hall-way when a blur of whirlwind seemed to appear out of nowhere, throwing itself unto Inuyasha.

"Uncle Inu! Uncle Inu!" The whirlwind cried. "You are finally back! I haven't seen you for ages!"

Kagome blinked, staring at the nine-year-old girl with long dark hair. She wore an airy lavender shirt in a fashion Kagome had never seen before but immediately liked, and pale-blue shorts.

Inuyasha laughed deeply, swinging the child around as the girl squealed happily. "Hi, there, Rin. I've missed you, too."

Kagome stared, curious at the change in Inuyasha's demeanor. She smiled almost wistfully. His amber eyes were laughing, and there was nothing seductive about him. Something inside her made her wish that she had brought on the change in him.

"Rin." Sesshoumaru's voicing of that single syllable had Inuyasha release Rin, and the girl seemed to notice, for the first time, Kagome standing awkwardly in the hall, not knowing how to act in what was obviously a family moment. The child's dark eyes peered curiously up at her.

"Kagome, this is my niece, Rin." Inuyasha introduced. "Rin, this is Kagome, a class-mate of mine. If we are lucky, she might be living with us for a while. How would you like to have another woman to talk to?"

Kagome smiled at her, her heart drawn to this little girl who radiated so much innocence. Rin stared at her for a moment, before smiling brightly back.

"Daddy!" Rin hopped over to Sesshoumaru. "I like Uncle Inu's lady friend. She's pretty, and nice."

A rare show of emotion flickered across the stoic youkai's face as he gazed at his daughter. "She is, indeed." His gaze found Inuyasha. "Now, little brother, since you volunteered for the job, don't you think it's time you showed Kagome her room?"

Inuyasha said nothing, just shot his brother a nasty look as he grabbed a nervous Kagome by the hand and pulled her into the hall way next to the dining room. Typing a code in the pad next to the door, a soft ding sounded, and a pair of metal doors opened. Kagome gasped.

"You have your own elevator?"

Inuyasha shrugged. "Well, since this house has nine stories not the including the roof, it's a pain to be running up and down the stairs, so we decided to get this installed."

Kagome laughed. "You might be able to fill out that wiry frame if you took the stairs." She teased, mirth sparkling in her eyes. "It's a good exercise."

"And you would lose that extra ten pounds on your thighs and butt, and most likely an inch or two around that waist." Inuyasha teased right back. Kagome's body was as lovely as sin - he couldn't imagine a more beautiful body. Her curves were molded perfectly to fit him.

"Hey!" Kagome protested as they stepped into the elevator, and he pressed the button for the third floor. "I thought I had a cute ass!"

Inuyasha grinned at her. "Oh, believe me, you do." He grabbed her butt, and gave it a light squeeze. Kagome squealed in shock, jumping a foot in the air. She glared at him.

"Pervert! You are as bad as Miroku!"

Inuyasha laughed again. He seemed to be completely at ease around her. 'Of course,' she scowled, ' he's every female's dream, so he's completely in his element, not to mention that this is his house.' Kagome froze. 'Oh no, I did not just think that he was every girl's fantasy come alive. No, no, I hate him.' She almost missed the husky note in his voice as he spoke again.

"What's wrong, Kagome? Did you forget I'm just as much male as that fucking bouzu?"

The girl didn't answer, and chose to change the topic instead as the elevator opened with a delicate 'ding'. "So what's on the roof?" She asked as she followed him.

"It includes, among other things, my mother's own special rose bed, which had been a wedding gift from my father. You should go and see it sometime - it's absolutely gorgeous." A faint note of pride entered his voice. "It's also the perfect place to sun-bath. Kagura adores it up there, which should be no surprise since she's a wind youkai. I guess this house is too much like a cage for her."

He stopped in front of a engraved door and was about to type in the code when it opened and a young girl stepped out, a dusting pan in one hand, dressed in a maid's uniform. She giggled madly as she saw Inuyasha, and Kagome could only roll her eyes as the seductive smirk returned to Inuyasha's lips.

"Hello, there, my kirei okini'iri." He said smoothly, slipping an arm around her waist. She giggled again, and he dipped his head for a long kiss. Kagome softly clearing her throat caused both of their heads to snap up.

"Misuteri Hana." Inuyasha introduced. "Higurashi Kagome. Hana is my personal maid, and excellent at what she does."

Kagome offered an uneasy smile. The girl's glare was hostile, not to mention that she gave off an un-friendly vibe. She bowed stiffly, stepping aside so Inuyasha could enter the room. Kagome followed him, sighing. She hadn't met the maid for more than 30 seconds, and their mutual dislike was already apparent. Glaring at the source of all her problems, she murmured a single word under her breath.

"Pureboi." By the twitching of his ears, she knew that he had heard her.

A gasp tore from her throat as she saw, for the first time, the room the Takahashi's offered her. It was huge. She could easily fit three of her old bedroom at the main house into the space. The huge king sized bed sported gold pillows and blankets, soft and gentle on the eyes. A sturdy bookshelf stood on a side, next to a lovely red-wood desk. A closet was the on the other side, with full-length mirrors acting as the door. Opposite was a large window with gentle pink curtains, and it was obvious that they had used 'Dawn' as the theme in designing this room. She raised an eyebrow as she noticed the rose petals strewn on the bed, deep red against gold.

"Your doing, I presume?"

Inuyasha grinned, raising his hands in mock surrender. "You caught me." The smile stayed. "The rent is $1000 a month. So, Kagome Higurashi, what do you say?"

"I'd say I would have to be an idiot not to take this offer."

"Great." Inuyasha disappeared only to reappear seconds later, a package in his hand, handing it to her. "A present." He told her with a mischievous smile.

"Well, Welcome to the Family, Kagome Higurashi."
_________________________________________________________________

Finally finished. I can't believe it! Over 8500 words! It's the longest entry I've ever done, including all the other stories I've written and posted. I'm not entirely satisfied with this chapter - the ending was dull. Sophia and Hana are my own characters. Do not worry about them. They are only there to re-inforce Inuyasha's playboy attitude, and Hana later has some plot purposes, but that's all there is. I hope you enjoyed this chapter.

Note: Kohaku's last name is the one of the woman who does Sango's voice in the original Japanese name, I believe.

Translations (I'm not entirely sure on these, so don't quote me. These are dictionary definitions):

Sekushi - sexy

Bouzu - priest or monk. I am using this spelling because it's one I've always seen. According to the dictionary, however, it is spelled bozu, with a line above the 'o'.

Kirei - pretty

Okini'iri - pet

Misuteri - Mystery

Hana - flower

Pureboi - playboy

Just a little note. While my full pen-name is Shizuka Kaze, my friends, when talking about fanfiction, call me Shizu-chan, so that's what I sign with. I know there another registered member by that name, though he/she hasn't written anything yet, to the best of my knowledge. However, I've been called by that name for so long that's its hard to change :sigh: So please bear with me, and try not to confuse me with her/him. Thank you.
