Hey everyone I’m back with my latest fic. This is a little change from my usual writings, I hope you enjoy it, and let me know what you think by reviewing. ~Shell
The next morning Kagome awoke to tons of pounding, and buzzing. She groaned and looked at her clock, which read 7:30, she shot out of bed. “7:30, shit I over slept.” She screamed to herself,
but the buzzing, and pounding she awoke to did not seize to stop. “What the hell is that wrenched noise?” She quickly followed it, and it was coming from her door. She peered out her peephole to see who was making
all the wracked. ‘Louie, my wake up call.’ Kagome undid the many locks on the door, and opened the door. It seems the Italian cab driver was leaning forward on the door while continually pounding on it to open, he
fell in. ‘Good thing I have carpet or else he would of split his head open.’ Finding himself becoming very friendly with Kagome’s Berber carpet, he shot up. “Why aren’t you ready yet, you should know by now if your
not going to work to call in advance.” Louie nearly screamed at Kagome. Raising an eyebrow Kagome shut her and locked her door again, and dragged Louie into her kitchen. “Here have some coffee and I’ll be ready in
about 15 minutes.” Kagome yelled running down the hallway to her bathroom. She made a record in the shower 5 minutes flat; she dressed herself in a yellow blouse, with a knee length black skirt, and a matching business
coat. Kagome was dressed, and ready to tackle another day of work within the 15 minutes she promised.
The Italian cab driver was waiting impatiently, tapping his foot. “What did Maria, and I teach you about punctuality?” He asked in a father tone figure. Kagome giggled as they both stepped out her
door while she locked it. “Gee sorry dad yesterday must have taken a lot out of me.” The sarcasm was dripping heavily this morning. Louie smiled to himself, as he held the yellow cab door open for Kagome. “So what
time do I pick ya up tonight sweetheart?” Kagome laughed at how he worded it, but cleared her throat. “Actually Louie I don’t need a ride home, I’m going out with a co workers afterwards, and they’ll give me a ride,
thanks anyways.” This caught Louie's attention, as he peered in his rear view mirror to find Kagome applying her makeup. “Would this co worker have the name of Mr. Inuyasha Tama by any chance?" Kagome blushed furiously,
“So what if it is, what are you going to do about it?” She asked looking a little angry, Louie chuckled a bit “Relax sweetheart, Maria, and I think it’s great your getting out.” ‘There is always a but when he ends it
like that.’ Kagome thought to herself and braced herself. “But, do you really think it’s good to dig up the past?” Louie pulled up behind a familiar black limousine, “Louie, Inuyasha and I are friends, and maybe even more
why don’t you want us to bring up the past?” Louie put car in park “Kagome, your like a daughter to me, and I think it’s great that your dating, but I don’t want you to get hurt again, and don’t let me discourage you
with this Inuyasha fellow.” He smiled at her “Thanks Louie.” She said stepping out of the cab “How much do I owe ya by the way.” Reaching into her purse, Louie just smiled and said “Keep it, your payment is to introduce
this new guy to me, and Maria no exceptions Kag. “Thanks Louie, I will some day.” “Have a good day sweetheart.” He said putting the cab in drive.
‘That Louie, you think, after 13 years he would treat me more like an adult rather then child.’ Kagome’s thoughts were interrupted when she felt a tap on her shoulder. She turned to find a grinning Inuyasha
“A woman in deep thought standing on the curb of the streets of LA now I have seen it all.” He chuckled as she blushed furiously; he wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her in for a hug. “So whose the cab driver, an old
boyfriend?” Kagome laughed, and started in for the building. “Why you jealous?” Kagome asked in a serious voice, Inuyasha’s grin turned to a frown faster then you can say “gotcha” Kagome laughed, “Inuyasha he’s married, and no I
would never date a married man.” Hearing this his lips formed a smirk, “I dunno Kag, there is a first time for everything.” He laughed allowing her then himself to step into the private elevator behind Kohaku’s desk. “Seriously
Kagome, who was he?” Kagome sighed, and pressed the button that said 23 on it. “He was the only father figure I had for the last 13 years.” She said in a low voice trying to remember her real father. Inuyasha smiled and pulled
her near him, “Kagome, I’m sorry, I can act like a real jerk sometimes, a jealous jerk if you will.” Kagome looked up at him and smiled “Its ok Inuyasha, you’re just looking out for me that’s all right.” He chuckled, and kissed her
temple “Right, so are we still on for tonight?” The elevator came to a halt and the doors opened to reveal the 23rd floor, both of them stepped out of the elevator and walked to their office doors.
“Of course were still on, what did you think?” Kagome said stepping into her office. She placed her laptop on her desk, and turned it on. The rest of the day went smoothly, Kagome, and Inuyasha actually got work done.
When ever Kagome went into his office, Inuyasha would grab her arm, or waist, and steal a kiss, so Kagome would go in there every possible moment. At the end of the day Kagome powered her laptop down, and put it in its case, she leaned
back in her chair, and closed her eyes. The conjoining door to Inuyasha’s office opened, Kagome opened her eyes and smiled when he walked through. “So where do you want to go for dinner.” He said sitting down across for her and smiled.
“Do you know any good restaurants around here?” Inuyasha inhaled her scent and was surprised when he found her to be coming into heat ‘Damn, why now, oh well I should claim her soon anyways.’ He smiled and said, “There is a new beachfront
restaurant, that opened up.” Kagome stood up, walked towards the office door, turned towards Inuyasha “Sounds great to me, lets get going then.” Inuyasha smirked; in his mind he was making plans about how he was going to claim Kagome.
They arrived at the restaurant by limousine; Kagome was very impressed on how the restaurant looked. It was simple but had a bit of elegance to it. The host seated them on the terrace by the beach, they both loved the ocean, it
always made them feel at peace, and took them away from the hustle and bustle of the city. ‘Her scent is driving me crazy, and she looks so gorgeous with the candlelight highlight the glow on her face.’ “Inuyasha you ok?” Kagome asked in a worried
tone, snapping him out of his thoughts. “Just fine, what about you.” He said taking a sip of wine, and leaning over to kiss her on the cheek. Unknown to the couple, they were being watched from the corner. “Dearest isn’t that Kagome over there?” A
male figure, spoke to his wife. The woman looked over at the young couple and her eyes widened. “It is Kagome, I wonder who she’s with, and she rarely dates or trust men for that matter.” The woman spoke coldly remembering the past. “Lets go introduce
ourselves darling.” She went to get up but his hand was faster, he grabbed her arm, and pulled her back down. “Hun do you think that’s wise, maybe he just a co worker, you remember Louie said that she was going out to dinner.” The woman looked
over to her husband “He kissed her on the cheek there is something serious going on there.” He just sighed “Do what you must my love, but you can’t shelter her forever. She smiled, and sat back down next to him “You’re right, we’ll just squeeze it out
of her at Maria and Louie’s on Sunday during dinner.” He chuckled, and place a kiss upon her cheek.
Kagome felt someone watching her, and shivered. ‘Someone is talking about me, but whom, ah damn I hate these sixth senses I get.’ “Kagome are you alright”, Inuyasha shook her shoulder lightly snapping her out of her thoughts.
“Sorry Inu, I must have zoned out for a moment.” She smiled, and laid her head on his shoulder. “Kagome I’ve been meaning to ask you what happened after Kouga kidnapped you?” She closed her eyes, and a sad expression appeared on her face. “I’m
sorry baby, you don’t have to tell me if you don’t want to.” Inuyasha said nuzzling her neck. “Your damn right she doesn’t have to tell you shit, you good for nothing bastard.” Came a cold voice, the couple looked up to see a woman with a scowl o
n her face. She was a tall woman, with ice-cold eyes, and raven black hair, she almost pass as an older Kagome. “Who the hell are you, pal and what are you doing with Kagome.” The woman said coldly “Kikyo, be nice, he’s a good friend of mine.”
Kikyo looked at Kagome and rose an elegant eyebrow. “So dear, who is he, because if I remember clearly, you swore no more men ever.” Kagome giggled lightly “Kikyo have a seat, hey Benny how’s it going?” The man looked at her smiled, and took a
seat next to his wife. “Very well thank you Kagome.”
Once Kikyo stopped threatening to neuter Inuyasha with the steak knife Kagome spoke. “Kikyo remember when I was growing up I told you what happened before I was kidnapped?” Kikyo thought for a moment “Yes, you were with a Inu youkai,
I always forget his name?” Inuyasha smiled and said, “Was it Inuyasha?” Kikyo’s eyes lit up “Yes that was it, hey get to the point Kagome.” Kagome giggled and said “Kikyo I would like you to meet Inuyasha Tama, my new boss and lifelong friend.” Kikyo’s
mouth dropped open, but she quickly closed it. “I would like to apologize to you Mr. Tama, Kagome is like a daughter to me, and I’m very protective over her.” Inuyasha smiled “Not a problem Miss. Kikyo, I would of done the same.” Kagome sat there with
wide eyes, ‘Inuyasha, take an apologize, like that, no way.’ “So Kagome, would you like to tell me, if there is anyone else that may try to kill me if they see me with you?” Inuyasha asked nuzzling her cheek, Kagome blushed furiously before sending him
a not-now-or-else-look. Kikyo and her husband chuckled lightly, remembering how it was when they dated. “So Inuyasha you were asking Kagome about her past?” Inuyasha looked up at her “Yes, I would like to know what she has been up to for the past 13 years.”
Kikyo giggled, and then looked at Kagome. “Would you care to tell him or shall I?” Kagome looked at Kikyo and smirked, “Sure why not I think we all need to update our history books.”
FLASHBACK
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
“Once you’re done with this no good dog come back home.” Kouga said walking to Kagome, and picked her up, making her drop the cookie she held in her hand. She immediately struggled to
break freak of his grip, Koga not liking this pricked
a spot on her neck, making her fall into a deep slumber. “Thank goodness I don’t have pups, Sesshomaru, don’t feel bad she’ll be going to a nice family, they might feed her once a week if she’s lucky.” Koga laughed evilly. “Boys, do what you were paid to do.”
Koga said snapping his fingers once and taking off at the speed of light. All at once the 20-wolf youkai surrounded him, and attack furiously. Sesshomaru could only take so many at a time, which were about 15 wolfs. They left him bloodied weak and ready to die.
Kagome awoke the next morning handcuffed to a brittle bed, which felt like it would collapse at any given moment. ‘Where am I, where’s Inuyasha, where’s Rin, and why am I here?’ Kagome thought quickly as a few tears fell from her eyes. The
old wooden door opened, and a tall woman, with ice cold eyes, and black hair walked in. “So your finally awake, huh?” Kagome just wanted to run out of there or at least hide, but she summoned enough strength to answer. “Y…Yes M…Miss.” She walked over and pulled
a chair to the side of the bed. “Don’t stutter its unlady like.” She said calmly “Sorry, uhh where am I by the way.” The woman looked at Kagome, you’ve been sold to my master.” Kagome could hear the sadness in her words. “Don’t worry little one, I’m going to
get you out of here one way or another.” A small smile appeared on Kagome’s face “You mean it!” Kagome said excitedly “I’ll try, but no promises the master usually keeps a close eye on his slaves.” “I’ve got to get home Miss…” “Kikyo” the woman said quickly.
“My mommy is probably worried about me.” Kikyo’s eyes darted for the door and wished she wasn’t the one who would have to tell her, Kagome noticed something in them. “She’s dead isn’t she?” Kagome said quietly. Kikyo nodded solemnly. Tears started to fall
uncontrollably from Kagome’s eyes. Kikyo scooped the sobbing girl, and placed her on top of her lap. She rubbed her back and gently cradled her until Kagome fell asleep.
Over the next few weeks Kagome learned the rules of the house quickly, for if she didn’t she was brutally punished by her master. She never learned his name only to do what she was told, and to do it quickly. After a days work, she would go to
her room which she shared with Kikyo, and often cried herself to sleep at night. Kikyo was more of a mother figure towards her, comforting her every second she could. One night, Kikyo came into the room and found the already sleep Kagome. ‘This is the first night
she hasn’t cried herself to sleep.’ She walked over to the bed and kneeled before the sleeping girl. ‘You don’t deserve to know what this type of life is like, and I intend to keep my promise.’ Kikyo rose and kiss Kagome on the cheek goodnight before sliding in
bed and laid next to her.
About a week later, Kagome was getting ready for bed when Kikyo came into the room quickly locking the door. “Get dressed quickly Kagome.” She said in a hurry, quickly opening a secret panel. Kikyo opened the closet and got down two packs that
were clearly filled. “Kikyo what are we doing, you know what the master will do if we get caught.” Kagome said worriedly “We won’t, the master has just left out of town, the guards, and I made a deal with each other.” Once Kagome was finally dressed, Kikyo picked
gave her the pack to put on, once that was done, Kagome was in Kikyo’s arms being carried out through the secret panel. You could tell by Kikyo’s breath she was nervous, and was being extremely cautious. After exiting the house Kikyo, and Kagome snuck around to
the back to where the stables were. Kikyo quickly saddled the horse and put Kagome on top and quickly joined her. “Kagome, your not to say anything until I tell you just hold on and don’t fall off.” Kikyo said pulling her own hair back and tying it quickly.
Before Kagome knew it her and Kikyo seemed to be flying away from the house that held them both prisoner for what seemed years, only turned out to be months. The ground was moving so fast before Kagome’s eyes she started to feel dizzy. “Kagome don’t
look down keep your eyes in front of yourself.” Kagome nodded quickly, and leaned back against Kikyo’s warm body. Noticing this Kikyo let a rare smile upon her face, for once in her life she felt free, but she knew once she made it past the gates they would be free from
the man they called master, and free from the life of slavery. As they approached the gates she slowed down a bit. “Pete, are you there?” Kikyo whispered “Kikyo? Is that you?” Another whisper came, only it sounded more masculine. “Yes, are you going to let me pass?” Kikyo
said with a worried tone. A shadowy figure stepped out of nowhere, and signaled her to follow him. “Kikyo, and Kagome still on the horse followed silently.” The man smiled, and hugged Kikyo tight, “Good luck, and best wishes to you both, I don’t want to see you get hauled
in here again.” Both girls smiled back at him, and thanked him silently as they took off at the speed of light not stopping nor looking back.
“Kagome you may talk now it’s safe.” Kikyo said with a hint of cheerfulness to her voice. “Are we really free Kikyo?” Kagome asked. “Of course silly, first thing we’re going to do is find a shelter since the sun is coming up.” Kikyo saw an upcoming barn
and quickly drove the horse near it. “Unlocked, great we’ll hide out here till night falls again.” Kikyo hid them behind some hay, and pulled out a blanket and pulled Kagome close to her. “Get some rest Kagome, I’ll be here when you wake up tomorrow.” Kagome smiled and
snuggled deeply into Kikyo. ‘So this must be the love of a mother.’ Kikyo thought as she soon fell asleep next to Kagome.
“LOUIE, COME QUICK!!!” Was what Kikyo, and Kagome both heard when they awoke. Kikyo quickly got up and stood in front of Kagome “I’m so sorry miss… we were traveling and…” “You poor things, come quickly inside, and warm up.” The middle age Italian woman said
cutting Kikyo off. “Your not mad, at us.” Kikyo said in a shocked voice. The Italian woman smiled quickly, and looked at Kikyo “Not at all dear, we rarely get any visitors, and this is a slave hideout.” She said cheerfully “You two are ex slaves right.” She said worriedly. “Yes,
yes we are please don’t report us.” Kikyo said picking the sleepy Kagome up and putting on her hip. “Honey relax, and come into the house.” The lady led them both into the French style house. “You girls must be starved, there is a shower in the next room if you wish to wash up.
I’ll prepare you a bed so you girls can get some rest.” Kikyo put Kagome down and checked her for scratches. “Thank you Madame, but what is your name?” Kikyo said undoing the French braid in Kagome’s hair. “Oh silly me I forgot to tell you.” The woman chuckled “My name is Maria,
and this is my husband Louie your welcome to stay here as long as you like. “Thank you Maria, but we don’t want to impose on both of your space.” Kikyo said quickly. “Nonsense, we would love it if you would live here.” Maria said cheerfully “Besides traveling with a young lady
like herself isn’t healthy.” Kikyo started to cry, “Thank you so much, we’ll work hard and earn our keep around here.” Maria walked over to Kikyo and patted her on the back “Now, now honey dry those tears, you must be strong for her, come on lets get you two settled.”
“Maria and Louie allowed the both of us to live there as long as we wanted.” Kagome took a tissue and wiped her eyes. “5 years, we stayed in the country side home. It was nice, quiet, sort of reminded me of the shrine.” She cleared her throat “Times became
hard, and the farm wasn’t bringing in much money, so Maria, Louie, Kikyo, and I moved to the city.” Inuyasha ordered her a glass of tea to calm her a bit. “Louie started a cab company, Kikyo went through high school, then college, and got her masters degree in Accounting.” The
waitress brought Kagome some tea with honey, and lemon. “She soon met Ben here, and they soon married, about a year after they exchanged their vows Kikyo gave birth to a baby girl, she named her Kaede.” “At times Louie, and Maria found it very tight to keep me around, but they
made sure I received my education, and everything a growing girl would need.” “Kikyo took care of me when she was able too, and I sometimes watch Kaede now.” Taking a sip of her tea Kagome continued “I found a job, right after I got out of College, for working at your law firm
Inuyasha.” She turned to Inuyasha, and I found you again.” She quickly broke down, and sobbed Inuyasha put his arm around Kagome and pulled her in to a deep hug. “Shhh it’s going to be alright Kagome.” He stroked her long raven hair, and just held
her. ' Now that I’ve found you
my Kagome, I’m never letting you go again.'
Kagome soon calmed down, and the group went about talking, and having a few laughs. “Inuyasha, Ben and I usually have a Saturday night dinner once a month, we would love it if you came, that way you can meet Maria and Louie.” Kagome smiled at Kikyo hiding what
she was thinking ‘What are you up to Kikyo?’ “Thank you Kikyo I would love to come, if it’s alright with Kagome, it would be nice to meet the people who raised her for the past 13 years.” He smiled at Kagome caressing her hand with his. “It’s fine by me, Kikyo do you need me to
come early, to help prepare dinner or to watch Kaede?” “I don’t need help preparing dinner, but you could help with Kaede, she’s been asking about you for quite sometime.” Smiling Kagome, gave Kikyo the, I’ll-be-there-if-you-would-just-leave-us-alone-now, look. Kikyo caught the
look and chuckled lightly under her breath, standing up Kikyo grabbed her purse, and coat, Ben followed along. “Well it was great seeing you again Kagome, and meeting you Inuyasha, but we must get home the babysitter doesn’t like it when we’re late
coming home.” Kikyo said bidding them farewells.
You don’t really have to come on Saturday, Inuyasha.” Kagome looked at him in a serious expression. “I’ll only go if you want me to go, if not then I’ll make other plans.” He replied kissing her temple “I would like to meet them, they seem like great people.”
Kagome buried her face in his shoulder and mumbled, “They are, I just don’t want you to dislike them, or them hate you.” Taken by surprise Inuyasha lifted her head slightly, “Kagome, if they are as kind, and generous as you say they are, and they were blessed with raising you
these past 13 years, then I know I’ll love them as much as I already love you.” With those words that he spoke tears filled Kagome’s eyes, he leaned his head down, and kissed the tears away. “No more tears alright, lets go for a walk on the beach, it’ll clear our minds.” Inuyasha
paid the tab, and took hold of Kagome’s hand, and led her down the beach.
