There was a time where an injured Sesshomaru could not walk for more than a few steps before his shaking legs threatened to buckle underneath him.
Rin silently wished for that time to return for just a moment, her sore legs and feet complaining about each step. He appeared soon after she woke in the early morning and they started their goalless journey immediately, and it seemed to be a little after noon by how high the sun was in the sky. They never stopped, and the terrain turned hilly. At times she had to climb up a rock-face that he so readily hopped to the top of. Didn't he ever need rest? She thought as she pouted at his straight back.
It was also deathly quiet between them the entire time – not the typical kind of quiet like yesterday afternoon, more like a tense kind of quiet. Aside from a 'Good morning' that Sesshomaru wholly ignored, no other words were spoken between them since last night. She wondered if he could be angry with her. Rin bit her lip, No, I only did what he told me to do. Why get mad? Or maybe, he didn't like it...?
The persistent ache in her feet finally got to her, "Can we rest for a bit?"
Sesshomaru said nothing and continued walking. Rin huffed and bared the silence for a few more minutes before she opened her mouth again, determined to get him to acknowledge her when the trees around them broke into a clearing. The words died on her tongue at the scenery of the immense mountain that towered in the middle of the island, the vast forest groves and winding rivers. She could even see the dog statue from here. Had they really climbed so far up? No wonder she was spent.
The daiyoukai made himself comfortable on a large rock not far from the cliffside. So we are resting! Thank goodness. Rin thought as she walked over next to the front of the boulder, to be closer to the edge, and promptly just dropped herself on the plush grass with her stomach down, moaning in relief when the weight of her body no longer pressured her achy feet. She crossed her arms below her and rested her chin on them, her eyes scanning the view in front of her.
The mountain. Rin frowned when her mind buzzed with a memory of her reach. She ignored it and made another observation that being so high up ultimately confirmed. There was nothing in the sky but the clouds. "Why aren't there any birds here?"
"Something in the air disturbs them."
Something? Rin pondered the reply for a moment, "So there are birds here?"
"There were."
"... What happened?"
"Most bird youkai committed suicide from being forced to stay grounded."
Oh. Rin's eyes lowered, that's terrible. But why would they settle here then, if death was preferable? Did they have no choice? She wanted to ask, but he ignored her last question that was related to 'why' and she feared he would shut her out again. She sat up and laid her legs in front of her before she looked over her shoulder at him, "Can I ask... what makes you youkai?" Besides your big dick was what she cheekily wanted to add, but she had this feeling that wouldn't end well.
Sesshomaru seemed to consider her question for a moment, "My youki."
His one or two worded answers were going to drive her insane. "What is that – Whoa!" She watched a whip of light materialize from his fingertips, and slice through the thick bark of one of the trees behind him. The top half fell with a heavy thump that shook the earth beneath them. He hadn't even looked, but still made a clean cut across. If it could do that to the rough bark of an older tree, then skin and bones had no chance.
"My power."
Rin directed her attention at him again, "You... you look the same, almost. Does your youki sustain your life and youth?"
"Hn."
Rin was learning that 'hn' usually meant 'yes,' or 'its okay,' or something along those lines. He certainly had no problems with a flat out 'No.' "I guess it would be hard to live on my side then... People would either be deathly afraid or would want to find out how to exploit those abilities..." She absently scratched her nose, "Are your people Japanese? The armor on that dog and your clothing..."
"Hn." Then his eyes finally met her, "I presume you are as well?"
"Yup!" Rin replied, "Though my father is American... and then landing in Greece was odd..." His head tilted a bit as if he wasn't sure what she was referencing and wanted her to continue. "Last time I came, and you sent me back... I landed in Greece."
She watched the corner of lips pull slightly back to a frown, "That wasn't supposed to happen."
"Oh." Rin just shrugged, "First time sending someone out of here, right? Your father said it was. No big deal."
"You are oddly dismissive of my... error."
"It was ten years ago." Rin smiled, "Besides, it was a... interesting experience..." She then chuckled, "Or I'm just a little weird. I did throw water on what I now know was an injured daiyoukai. My danger instinct must be completely fried."
"Hn."
She smirked at his agreement, before looking back out to the sky, feeling much better after their chat and the bit of rest. Not that she was ready to get up... A loud rumbling from her stomach protested otherwise, reminding her she only had coconut and water in the morning. She desperately wanted meat, but she hadn't a chance to hunt.
"Make a fire." He ordered as he slid down the boulder and walked off without reason.
Is he going to get something to eat for us...? She hoped so as she began setting up with the wood of the fallen tree... which happened to be an avocado tree!
~:~:~
Sesshomaru watched the woman fiercely devour the freshly-cooked chunks of a buck he decided to share with her. Not that he cared for her hunger, she knew how to forage and how to hunt enough to sustain herself, but he happened to be a bit peckish already when he heard her stomach garble. When his beast made some comment about eating her, he knew it was time to leave the clearing. The buck was too large for him alone, and after he had his fill, he returned with one of its hind legs. Rin's excitement and gratitude for such a simple thing almost made him want to continue hunting for her.
Almost.
He shut his eyes. He spent far too much time watching her. Whether it was with his eyes, his ears, or his nose – every one of his senses was hyper-aware of her. It drove him mad, mad enough to respond to her questions for distraction, but it only made his ears cling to how she pronounced every word. This isn't right. He found himself thinking once more, irritated by the effect her very presence had.
Rin sighed in satisfaction after she finished her meal, moving to put out the fire and store what was left for dinner, he presumed. The woman needed to bathe and wash her clothing - her sweat, cooked meat, avocados, camellias and stale arousal made a strange cocktail of smells that was not exactly pleasant. The nearest spot would be a large lake just down the cliff edge. A quick shot of light for him but it would take her well into the night to scale down. He had no intentions of waiting around that long.
He grabbed her bare waist once she slung her bag over her shoulder, earning a surprised 'eep!' and pink flush across her cheeks. Sesshomaru ignored it, and his beast's mental smirk, before the two were engulfed in light and sped down the rocky cliff face. They landed on the lake's shoreline within moments, and he let her go... and grabbed her again when she nearly wobbled face-first into the water.
"Wha... What was that?" Rin steadied herself against him, and her expression seemed disoriented. He didn't consider the short travel in that form would cause her problems... Were all humans so fragile? He thought Izayoi to be an exception due to her pampered upbringing.
"I moved us to the lake."
"Moved... us?" She was rubbing her right temple, but her legs finally stopped swaying, and he let her go again. "Okay. Moved us..." Rin repeated, looking at where they were, then back to the lake, and back to him, "You won't answer how that works?"
"Hn." As if she would understand.
Instead of irritation, she smiled and shook her head as if amused with him, which in turn irritated him further. Nothing is amusing about him. "I'm guessing we are here to bathe?" The confidence in her voice broke, just as it had the night before when he asked about her dreams. And he already felt a dark rumbling from his beast – it was... stupid, he thought, unable to think of a more eloquent way of putting it. She stuttered, that was all.
He didn't answer her. The woman sniffed her arm, then raised a brow at him, "I stink, don't I?"
"Hn."
Rin dropped her bag with a sigh, pulled the shawl protecting her bare shoulders, then began untying the long, orchid sarong from her waist. What was she doing? She dropped the patterned fabric next to her things, then slipped her feet out her shoes before placing them neatly on the other side of her pack. Her slender fingers undid the knots that held her halter top at the neck and back, and then it joined the sarong on the ground. Was she toying with him? She merely started undressing, facing the opposite way, without a single care that he was just a few steps away from her.
Her thumbs hooked under the hem of her boyshorts, and he watched as it slid down her hips until it dropped to her ankles, now completely bare to the afternoon sun. Her hands came up to undo the messy bun that held her wild, deep brown hair when an eye looked over her shoulder, meeting his gaze. His eyes momentarily shifted to her throat when he noticed it contract, and back to her face in time to see another pink flush across her cheeks before she looked away. There was a familiar change in her scent, one that had an almost instantaneous effect on him much to his annoyance.
He was caught watching, and she enjoyed it. Yes, the woman was undoubtedly toying with him. Again.
Locks of dark hair cascaded down her toned back, and his hands itched to grab the thick of it and - No. Sesshomaru shut his eyes again, before averting his attention to the calm lake. He focused on finding his center, unwilling to let his instinctual desires rule him nor let the woman dictate whenever she wanted to - A large splash of warm water interrupted his thoughts, and he glanced down at his soaked clothing in shock before they landed on the naked woman who snuck into the lake already. Her mouth was in an o-shape before she started giggling. In silent anger, he pushed aside the wet locks sticking to his cheek then leveled her with a glare before he dropped his fur to the grass, removed his boots and began untying his obi.
Damn whatever he just said, she would pay now. "I seriously thought you were going to move away!" He heard her yell, still stifling with giggles. " … Are you mad? It's just water!" That was the second time she dunked water on him - the first time was excused as she was a child but not this time. Her damn giggles began to fade as his upper body was exposed, feeling her doe eyes shamelessly travel from his face down his chest and abs, lingering where his hands still gripped the hem of his hakama as if caught in a trance.
Sesshomaru forcefully repressed the smirk at her spike in scent, ignoring what twisted boost of pride he felt from his appearance having such an effect on her. But his control slipped when she shamelessly licked her lips after his last bit of clothing hit the ground, feeling his lips curl as his beast rumbled with satisfaction. Abruptly, the woman's face flushed, and she covered her cheeks when he stepped closer to the edge of the water.
He heard her heart pounding wildly, her breathing shortening in excitement - Sesshomaru had no clue what switched in the mortal's mind but her body told him she was about to make a break for it, which would be unwise. It was in his nature to give chase, and the woman stood no chance, whether on land or in the water. Just as the first foot dipped in, she grinned - the apprehension was gone - and twisted around before disappearing below the lake's surface.
With no one to witness, Sesshomaru allowed a chuckle escape - his beast roaring to hunt the enticing woman - and dove into the water.
~:~:~
Rin had no idea what she was doing trying to run from him, only that she inexplicably knew Sesshomaru would enjoy it. At least, he did in her dreams, and they haven't failed her yet. Now, she didn't know how well he could track her underwater, but she figured it would be more difficult for him than on land. Not to mention, she smiled mentally, the lake wasn't too deep it seemed and filled with plants, branches, and fallen trees - enough cover for her to hopefully create some distance before taking a breath.
Knowing the youkai was already closing in, she strafed to the left towards a barricade of fallen bark, squeezing between two logs - a space too small for him. She absently followed a school of fish around the underwater plants and through another stack of fallen trees. That was when she noticed a tunnel to her right and swam up to its entrance; she disturbed the weeds there before she shot up to the surface and climbed out of the lake, hoping he would mistake her to entering the underwater passage.
She was only able to take a few breaths in peace. When Rin heard the water break behind her, she didn't bother looking back and dashed directly into the forest in front of her. She was able to dodge the claws that skittered across her wet skin as she moved between the thicket of trees, laughing in delight. But being able to stay just out of reach was short-lived once the forest broke into a broad clearing and she had no more cover to maneuver around. Crap.
Rin gasped when his arm caught her waist and roughly pulled her, back pressing against his chest. Feeling his breath prickling her shoulders, she instinctively angled her neck, baring herself to him. He leaned closer, and his fangs skidded across her skin, stopping just where her pulse pounded. "You would bare your neck to a predator?" Sesshomaru asked.
"I trust you." She replied without thinking, breathless from the run, his closeness and their lack of dress. The deep growl that rumbled from the daiyoukai made her want to lean further on him, the vibrations of his chest rippling down her back.
"Foolish woman." He sneered, but it didn't have the bite it should have had, and Rin figured it had something to do with the hard cock against her lower back. Gods, she wanted to get a good look at him, completely bare. She only got a glance earlier, and it wasn't enough. Would he mind if she turned around to admire him? She swore she saw a flicker of him enjoying it before they hit the water… She licked her lips nervously, before she slowly turned, the arm that was around her waist stayed. Hadn't he noticed that he was still holding her?
His silver hair saturated as her own; the shorter locks clung to his face and shoulders. Her eyes traveled down his traps, the curve of his collarbone, down his pectorals, but being pressed so close didn't afford a good view of anything further below. Maybe she could… She'll have to be careful. She couldn't have his pride getting in the way. Mustering a smidge of courage and hoping the man wouldn't take too much offense, her hand rested on his side and trailed it downward. When he didn't show a hint of protest, she circled the thick member.
"Maybe I am…" She moved in long, slow strokes, biting back her smile when she heard his breath hiss at her touch. So he didn't mind. Rin leaned forward, now her mouth close to his neck as he was a moment ago. She had done it to hide her face, unable to say her next words too directly, but feeling his rapid pulse made her bolder... Or more stupid. Rin mimicked the same motion he had, but she took it one step further and sunk her teeth into his skin, knowing she was too weak to hurt him.
He jerked his hips in response before a clawed hand gripped her wet hair from the roots and pulled her entirely away from him without letting go. He snarled in her face, the whites of his eyes gone red and long fangs peeking out from his lips. It was a face she was becoming familiar with, one she should have been terrified of, but with the sight of his leaking cock, she instead found herself trying not to smile. Her dreams were right about that spot, and she saw through him. He liked it and didn't like that he did.
"I'm sorry…" She looked at the ground and made sure the crook of her neck was in full view as she lowered herself to her knees. He allowed the movement, but with his hand still tangled in her hair. His menacing red eyes watched her. Keeping her submissive position, she peeked up at him through her dark lashes, "Can this foolish woman have the honor of pleasuring you once more?"
~:~:~
"I trust you." And Rin had him.
The woman was a witch.
They had returned to their previous spot with their belongings still undisturbed on the lush grass. And again, she was carefree while she bathed several feet away from him as he fought the urge to wade over and drown her. She had to be a witch or some sort of enchantress. His claws absently touched the spot her blunt teeth bit, remembering the unexpected shock of pleasure that hit him. He'd never been bitten before, certainly not like that. How else would she know the sensitivity he had there or that he would enjoy it? He hadn't even known.
Sesshomaru's gaze traveled to her again, the woman humming softly as she cleaned her body. Her back was facing him, and the water was lapping just a few inches above her hips. He was at a loss. Despite his private promise last night to make her pay, he quickly realized he had little idea how while she knew far more than him. Never had he thought that listening to the vulgar conversations his father's men had about their latest conquests would have any use to him… Even as a hormonal teen, he found zero interest in their stories.
Her humming stopped, and he heard her swear under her breath, fighting with a knot in her hair. He has already behind her before he realized what he was doing, slapping her hands away and working the small pieces of wood ensnared in her curls. After winning the chase, the woman was eventually on her knees, servicing him with the same eagerness as before. And he, for a reason unknown to him, allowed it. Then he had fought the building urge to mount her as his beast snarled and pulled against his mental chains. Even now, after finding release not too long ago, he could feel the urge rearing its head again as he subconsciously took in her sweet scent up close. This damn woman has cursed him.
Rin looked up at him from over shoulder and flashed him a brilliant smile, one that must be part of her enchantment. "Thanks for the help." She said, gesturing to her detangled hair. He kept his gaze glued to her eyes when she turned to face him, as he had zero interest in her breasts. None. "Why are you so stripey? Do they mean anything?"
Sesshomaru ignored her question, then began making his way to the shore. He needed some distance between them before he got caught up once more in her games. His beast mocked him for it, saying he was running off but he ignored the base creature as well. It was only looking for him to stay and give into whatever perverse fantasies it had with the woman. She may not know it, but he was doing the fragile mortal a favor. She was reckless to think-
"I trust you." Rin had said in the clearing when he could have pierced the artery pumping underneath his lethal fangs. It was absurd. He got out of the water and with a pulse of his power, he was dry enough to dress. Yesterday, she had no idea what he was, and today, she claimed she trusted him. Youkai used to eat humans, and others never stopped - The latter were killed, while the rest were condemned to this island.
"I trust you." It should have been a lie. He should have smelt it on her breath, but with a bare neck, she moved closer to him. She believed she could trust him. As the beast in his mind taunted him with images of all the ways he could take advantage of that trust, he silently cursed her name again. What a foolish woman.
~:~:~
Rin wondered if she was discovering some pattern about her stoic friend.
It was nighttime and they - well, she - made camp a few moments ago when he ordered. The only words he spoke to her since their little moment in the afternoon. He began acting a bit strange after that and stranger, and stranger… She frowned at the spot he was just standing in before he jumped into the trees and out of sight. Did he have a problem with what she did? It certainly didn't seem that way during the act. She shivered against a biting breeze - they were much higher up than ever before, and despite the tropic climate, it seemed the nights were much colder at this elevation.
Even after slipping into her sleeping bag and the low fire going, the chill in the wind pierced through the small clearing. A thicker sleeping bag would have a been better in this situation, or an extra blanket, anything. Or she could wear something more instead of just her underwear while in the bag, but then she wouldn't be able to sleep. To her, sleeping naked was the only way, but that wasn't an option in the wilderness.
Should she ask him what was wrong when he returned? Like he would answer. She pushed away any more thoughts of him and prioritized sleep. No doubt he would be dragging her out early in the morning again.
Sesshomaru hadn't gone far, deciding to sit on top of the tallest tree in the vicinity, enjoying the feel of the cold air biting his skin. If he focused, he could still hear her, and he did. He listened to the soft tremble of her body whenever the wind blew or her turning over and over again to find some comfort. Were humans weak enough to fall ill to the slight cold up here? He repressed a sigh when he dropped down back to the clearing. It wouldn't do if the woman got sick. He unceremoniously dumped his fur on her, but both couldn't fit in the sleeping bag, so he unzipped it and willed the boa to curl around her body to provide the extra warmth she needed.
Just as he turned to leave again, a soft moan and a groggy "Thanks" caused him to look over his shoulder, two sleepy brown eyes watching him. In the darkness of the night, the woman certainly looked like the enchantress he claimed her to be with her wild, long, dark hair, the lack of any real clothing aside from her undergarments left the pale skin of her legs and midriff exposed. She turned onto her stomach, her arms hugging his fur. He ground his fangs when her muscular thighs gripped the end coiled around her legs - did she know he could feel that? Impossible. And that damn smile appeared on her lips. He narrowed his eyes, he hated her confidence and more how it affected him.
When his beast whispered to him like a devil on his shoulder, his pride made up a reason to listen. You wouldn't even have to touch her. The darkness snickered. The sound of her gasp as the muscles of his fur rippled around her body, stammering his name in shock when part of the boa locked her elbows behind her, and the pretty flush on her cheeks, when the other end slipped around the apex of her thighs, left him very curious. He noticed the movement of her throat as she swallowed. She was fully awake now, but there was no scent of fear or apprehension. No, he only picked up desire. Play with her.
The muscles in his boa began to roll, massaging every inch of her it touched. The thin barrier of fabric that covered her breasts did nothing to dull its touch, judging by her soft moaning. When he willed his boa to concentrate at her core, she gasped and arched her back. Her hips rolled against the fur as she met his eyes. Her breath quickened, and she spread her legs to give his boa better access. Did she have no shame? She moaned loudly, and her movements turned desperate.
Not yet. Sesshomaru allowed himself to smirk as Rin squirmed against the boa, a tortured whine escaping her when his ministrations stopped. Her doe-like eyes looked up at him, "...Maru?" She sounded so sweet and - his nose twitched - her scent was intoxicating. Coying his senses as her gaze pleaded with him to come closer, and it took every ounce of his control to keep his feet planted. Why was it so hard to ignore her when he had no trouble with the whores of the court or the feral bitches of the island? Without thought, his boa started its ministrations again, and the woman rewarded him with the charged sound of his name as she pressed against the fur. He inhaled through his parted lips. He could almost taste her in the air. He was entranced by the way her hips moved, the way she squirmed against the grip on her arms, and - her body bowed off the forest floor, a loud gasp escaped her as she found her release. And Sesshomaru reeled from the feeling of wanting to cause it again, and again.
His eyes narrowed, his curiosity wasn't sated. His desire was… No. He looked away. Not desire. No. He wanted more. His hands clenched. Damn it all. He wanted to hear her scream his name. Fuck this woman. Anger and the unresolved sexual pressure was a terrible combination. He knew he had to leave before his beast got the best of him.
He turned his attention back to the sky before he jumped back to his spot in the trees. He took several breaths, the cold wind against his skin easing him. Sesshomaru swallowed thickly, Run. He needed a run. Transforming into his true form, he took off to the dense forest below.
~:~:~
When Sesshomaru left, the fur relaxed, as if the thing wasn't alive and torturing her moments ago. Out of all the crazy stuff she conjured up in her dreams, Rin had thought the living boa was pure fantasy. She let out one last shuddering breath as her heart returned to an average pace. But her dreams proved to be right once more, and her suspicion of them grew. Just what is going on? She briefly thought he had something to do with them before but dismissed it. Now…
Rin curled her body around the fur, nuzzling her face in its soft hairs. She inhaled deeply, savoring his sharp scent of lighting and Japanese pine. Had he been playing with her this whole time from afar? She frowned, he didn't seem the type but tonight proved how little she knew of the boundaries of his character… But every event of today showed that her dreams somehow knew him better. And if that was true… Her chuckle was muffled by the fur, Does he think he can get away without touching me? Without 'dirtying' his hands? Her eyelids dropped, the body demanding rest after the exhausting day but the mind continued scheming.
Her instincts might be dull compared to his, but Rin saw how much he fought to restrain himself as he watched her. He enjoys watching quite a lot, doesn't he? Even when their discussion is light, or when the air is tense, he was looking or listening to her in some capacity. She wondered how long he could hold onto his control and what would happen the day she broke it. A soft smile curled her lips as she exhaled, sinking into fur and granting her body the rest it craved.
If Sesshomaru enjoyed watching her so much, it would only be right if she gave her savior a show, now wouldn't it? On her terms.
