Rin’s stomach rumbled. They had been walking for what seemed forever. She was tired at looking at greenery. Small trees, big trees. Only trees! Ever since they left the village it seemed that all life after that had ceased to exist. She walked barefooted, enjoying the feel of the ground on her toes. She carried her sandals in one hand. She inhaled deeply. It felt good to be alive. Her Kusarigama rested on A-Un along with her handmade bag filled with kimono she hadn’t given away. Her stockpot, unfortunately, had to be left behind. She looked at her weapon and sighed. She felt she was fighting with it. She hadn’t grabbed it since she was able to move once more. Lord Sesshomaru insisted she get rid of such, “useless contraption” but there was no way she was going to leave her weapon behind after all her hard work. After poor Totosai’s hard work. She refused to give up.
“Put on your sandals this instant, Rin” Jaken scolded. Trying to whack her with the staff while he rode A-Un but she lowered her head just enough to feel it sweep past her head the wind of it picking up stray strands.
“Stop treating me like a child, Master Jaken!” She frowned up at him. “I am fine.”
A few steps in front of them Lord Sesshomaru walked. They had taken a break from flying and she was glad. She was beginning to get airsick. Rin’s stomach rumbled again and Jaken’s stomach rumbled in return too.
“How much longer, my lord?” Rin asked
“Not much” he assured
“We are a hungry. You think we can stop to find something to eat?”
“Hold on a little longer, Rin” He insisted. This time turning to her for an instant
“Alright!” She smiled satisfied to see her Lord’s golden eyes at least for a second.
            Everything had returned to normal after Sarnas attack. She had lost track of how many weeks they had been traveling. Rin tried to put no mind to that because her wounds were almost healed and with minimal scarring! She wasn’t aware that it was Lord Sesshomaru’s saliva that had done the trick. The bandages were changed less often, and she felt she was regaining more of her energy with each passing day. Rin raised her free right hand shaking the Yukata sleeve, the silk green material adorned with pink lotus, rode down to her elbow. She stared at a black beaded bracelet on her wrist, each black bead was followed by a small white fang. Lord Sesshomaru had given it to her when they started traveling to wherever they were going. Telling her that the bracelet would camouflage her scent in case any demons smelled her wounds and wanted to attack her.
Lord Sesshomaru turned back for an instant to look back at Rin to make sure she wasn’t straying behind. He saw the way Rin gazed at the bracelet he had given her. There was a serene look to her features. She had finally recovered her spirits. What Sesshomaru hadn’t told her was that, that bracelet was for him just as much as it was for other demons. He was tired of smelling her. Of her scent mocking him and tempting him. Where they were going she was definitely going to need it as well. How would Rin feel surrounded with only demons?
            It was already late in the day when they stopped by a large tree. This tree was unlike any Rin had seen. It had giant oval shaped globes hanging from it. Were they fruit? The shells looked hard and were brown in color almost like a pinecone. Sesshomaru flew up in the air and broke a branch from it. It landed at their feet. Uninterested, A-Un began to graze while Rin and Jaken stared in bewilderment at what Sesshomaru showed them. Was he intending on feeding them that? He grabbed one. The claw from his thumb slicing the top of the hardened shell to reveal a super read meat. Rin put on her wooden sandals and reached out her hands as he handed her one. Then to Jaken the other. Rin cupped it with both hands.
“Hurry and eat. We must continue” he told them
Rin held the oval fruit, staring down at it and then stared at Jaken who also exchanged with her a confused expression. Nonetheless, he was glad his Lord had gone through the trouble to give it to him. To give him anything! And he, as his loyal servant, was deeply honored. With hopeful eyes he bit into the mushy flesh of the fruit as the ripeness entered his dry mouth and over flood it. The corners of his mouth began dripping with what looked like blood. Rin let out a squeal.
“Ah!!! It’s bleeding! What is it!!!?”
Rin stared horrified as master Jaken’s eyes began rolling back. She put the fruit down and ran to him, shaking him, “Master Jaken!!! Don’t tell me you’ve been poisoned!”
She let out another squeal.
“Enough of that, Rin! He is fine.” Sesshomaru said impatiently, her squeals piercing through his pointed ears.
“But my lord--”
She stared back at Jaken who began to mutter something.
“It so delicious” Jaken mumbled. “I have never tasted anything as delicious as this, thank you milord!!” He then woke up from his trance and exclaimed standing upright, “You must eat it, Rin! Don’t refuse our Lord!”
She stared over at Sesshomaru that had now sat at the base of the tree. She picked up the fruit and gulped, giving it a tiny nibble and then the taste overcame her palette. It wasn’t sweet, it wasn’t salty. It tasted meaty but it was also soft. It disappeared instantly into her mouth. She gave an excited squeal that caused Sesshomaru’s eyes to glance and taper at her direction as she dropped where she stood with her legs tucked under her and began munching on it.
Two of those later Jaken was already standing next to where Sesshomaru sat, staring over at how Rin devoured them, “That brat. Look at her go! That is her third one! Where does she fit all that?!” Rin’s face was covered in red slush as she heard Jaken yell, “Glutton! Enough of that we need to keep going!!”
“Let her be, Jaken” Sesshomaru said opening his eyes and staring at the woman child before him.
            Rin groaned laying on top of A-Un as they continued traveling. Her stomach was killing her. She shouldn’t have eaten so much of that demon fruit. Her hair swayed over the dragon, cascading around him like a blanket.
“I told you. I told you were going to get a belly ache” Jaken reprimanded
Rin answered with an aching moan not bothering to look down at him. Her orange bag with all her stuff at the end of the dragon didn’t allow much space for her to move. She remembered when all her body fit perfectly on A-Un. Now, not so much. Either way, Rin managed to fall asleep. As Jaken shook his head at the sight. Rin was a stubborn child, indeed.
            Rin’s eyes opened at the salty smell of the ocean. She rose up, rising up slowly on A-Un. She held on to the reigns that were wrapped around her hips with Jaken behind her. They were so up in the air that she got dizzy for an instant, but before she could freak out at how high it was, her wonder and curiosity stopped her. They were flying towards an island in the middle of the ocean! The isle was inhabited with a feudal territory and from each corner, like a clock, there were stretches of land that lead to four smaller feudal towns.
“Where are we?” Rin whispered amazed at the way the deep blue ocean extended, some spots lighter than others. It seemed to be endless. It was breathtaking. She pulled the brown waves the ocean breeze pushed against her face.
“The Waterdog Empire” Lord Sesshomaru answered apathetically when he heard her hardly audible whisper.
She was in shock of how unreal it seemed. It was beautiful the way the sun glistened on the waves under them. That kingdom that looked so tiny up in the air was settled in the middle of the vast water. It looked like something from a fantasy. She saw a huge shadow slither down in the water. She shrieked back as Jaken informed in her ear, “Sea dragons. The Waterdogs are known for handling these creatures to their will.”
“What are we doing here?” She asked not taking her eyes of that shadow that somehow managed to disappear into the depths of the ocean.
“Lord Sesshomaru is forming an alliance with them.”
An alliance? She knew that Lord Sesshomaru had built his empire but she had no idea how it worked. She was happy to realize that she would be able to witness her Lord’s greatness. The breeze pulled back on his hair and Mokomoko, and she couldn’t stop a sigh from exiting her body at how beautifully regal he looked. The closer they flew towards the empire, she noticed that the entire kingdom along with the castle towns connecting it, was surrounded by a white barrier. And they were inching close to what it looked like guards riding dragons and they were coming right towards them!
The enormous flying reptiles inched closer, their deep violet wings heading to where the armed black-haired demons guided them. They wore metal cuirass’s that bounced the sun from them. Their armor extended to their hips making them look bulkier than they were. The closer they got she could see the dragons bodies covered with tough, tiny scales. It took her a while to realize that the profound rumbling she heard was coming from them. She rubbed A-Un’s necks while the guards quickly lowered their heads as they recognized him immediately. They passed them and entered through the barrier. Rin stared back at the huge men on the dragons. Their black manes extended down to their backs. Their faces wild and merciless that screamed, fear me! But it was their eyes that caught her attention. Their eyes were intense and the color of the sea.
When they descended at the front of enormous gates, she had to crane her neck to be able to gather their entire height. Each door had a carved realistic sea dragon on it. A dragon with no wings. Noise emanated from the ominous wooden doors. There were two similar guards standing at the gatehouse as they arrived, “Welcome, Lord of the West” one said with a bottomless reverberating voice. And with that, the enormous doors opened.
She slid off A-un as they passed through the doors. Jaken looked to be lost in wonder as much as Rin. Behind those doors was a thriving town! Stands of demons selling food caught her eyes immediately and her senses. She could smell boar and she could even see demon children! They ran past them looking curiously at her before disappearing. It was a lively castle town and she had never seen demons in all in one place. Most of them had black hair, but what was most amazing to her was the architecture. Every roof of the town was pagoda roofing. Some leading to stairs where the pagoda roofs extended upward stacked and layered. She was so enthralled with the construction that she hadn’t noticed how some of the residents eyed them.
“He must be here to see the Lord Takauji and Toyokuni.”
“Look at his clothes! He is a Lord himself.”
Rin was snapped from her sightseeing when she heard the word human
“Is that a human?” A scaly demon with wild blue hair said. He sniffed the air and licked his lips. She crinkled her nose at the sight, getting closer to A-Un for protection, but she knew he couldn’t smell anything because of her bracelet.
They walked towards a large stone wall that separated the town from something on the other side. She could see pagoda roofs much fancier than the ones on this side extend. Their thatched roofing had a dark blue hue that seemed to shimmer, some with embellishments of dragons, and imitation sea waves. Two guards on each end protected the entrance. They wore cuirass similar to the ones on the dragons except these carried large golden tridents. There were other two on guard towers on each upper end of the stone wall, with white orbs cupped in their hands. Lost in trance. Those guards were different. Their skin tone looked indigo and scaly. They had lengthy wispy white hair. They were the ones who controlled the barrier. The guards bowed their head towards Lord Sesshomaru that didn’t seem bothered at the way the residents were following him and whispering.
            It was a different atmosphere once they reached inside. The noise was completely blocked and in front of them they could see a beautiful domain! There was a red bridge that would lead them across the ocean towards a feudal castle on top of a layer of large rocks that descended down towards the water. The waves splashed against the rocks as if the ocean was slapping them. Rin was really excited! She had never seen anything as beautiful as this. She tried to straighten her thick hair feeling suddenly self-conscious that she didn’t look noble enough.
“Lord Sesshomaru” Someone called from the sky as quickly, a dog demon with short black hair, wearing a green kimono and hakama with white trimmings, stood in front of them. His voice seemed somewhat muffled given the fact that a corner of his mouth looked sealed shut. “We were expecting you last week. Please forgive me for not coming to get you sooner. My name is Namura, Lord Takauji’s advisor”
They were lead down the bridge as Namura and Sesshomaru talked amongst each other, a step ahead from her. Rin held the red bridge, leaning over to see her reflection on the blue water. She patted down and unruly curl. She closed her eyes feeling the moist air and when she opened them back up she saw from the distance an enormous colorful sea dragon splash up from that water and swim back down.
“Did you see that master Jaken?!” she asked but she got no answer because Master Jaken was right behind Lord Sesshomaru and she was straying behind.
She ran towards them, her wooden sandals clacking on the bridge.
            Passing the bridge and another gatehouse, they appeared into the courtyard. A large stone well stood in front of the main feudal castle. Its pagoda roofs extended high in the air. She could only imagine how many rooms it held. Around it were other smaller replicas of the castle. It was lively here. Demon children played wearing silk kimonos. Servants worked in the gardens. Aristocrats were housed here no doubt.
“Lord Takauji is out hunting, my lord. I have send for him right away.”
Soon, A-un was taken to the stables and her stuff was carried with ease by demoness servants who looked like princess’s themselves as they guided her into one of the tall pagoda dwellings near the castle. Rin had gathered her Kusarigama and wrapped it around her hips, the blades shrinking in size for better carry.
“A handmaiden will be assigned to you soon, Miss Rin” One of the servants with long silver hair said.
She couldn’t help but stare at their lovely, faded blue kimonos with the emblem of a sea dragon on the sleeves. They moved in soft, slow, delicate steps that she found herself stopping in order to not bump into them. They went up five steps leading her up the platform passing various doors in which Rin wondered if were empty. They slid the shoji door open to reveal a spacious room. A thick futon was already in the middle of the room. The servants entered with their kimonos dragging behind them as the one with silver hair reached into a closet to take some heavy beige blankets out and placed it delicately on the futon. The other who had shorter silver hair went over to the two tall lamps framed with bamboo. The lamps stood on each corner of the back of the room and the maid turned them on with a matchstick she got out from her kimono sleeves. Placing the matchsticks on a corner table by the shoji doors they bowed politely and left her there.
Rin beamed at the closed doors. She had never been attended by maids before! She felt happy to finally be able to sleep in a comfy bed after so long. She looked around at the beautiful woodwork in the trim of the room. The tapestry hanging from one wall portraying a large black dog demon with a dragon in its mouth. She wondered if Jaken and Sesshomaru would be housed here as well. She wanted to go into the main castle with them, but Namura insisted she didn’t need to worry her “pretty little head over war stuff”. She had forgotten that Jaken was originally Lord Sesshomaru’s advisor and she was missing having him around already. Putting down her weapon at the edge of the back wall, she slid open shoji doors opposite of the entrance of her room. They revealed a courtyard within the pagoda apartment. She could see other doors that probably lead to other rooms. It had about five floors extending upward. In the middle of the courtyard the fountain of a dragon was the centerpiece right in front of a tall ancient tree that seemed to reach up to the fifth floor. She walked out the door into the platform wooden floor. It had a railing among the open edge of the floor even though she was in the first level, but all she needed to do was walk down the small flight of stairs and she would be able to get into the courtyard in just three steps. She turned when she heard a knock on the shoji door.
“Come in” she said
The doors opened to show a beautiful, tall and slender half-demon girl with neck length black hair. She appeared more human than the other servants that had lead her here, she didn’t possess any talon markings that was commonly seen in full blood demons. But her distinguishing features were the black dog ears that popped out of her full black hair. She had big beautiful gray eyes. Eyes so gray that almost seemed to be devoid of color, but despite that fact, Rin saw kindness in their gray depths. She wore a beautiful layered yukata with blue flowers stamped around it with smaller green ones. On the long kimono sleeves the sea dragon emblem merged with the flowers. She bowed respectfully.
“I am Yuna. I will be your handmaiden.”
Rin went towards her with a welcoming smile. Yuna looked her over with a shocked expression in her face.
Rin frowned confused and turned her head to the side inquisitively, “What is it?”
“Y-you’re human!” She sputtered
“Yes?” She wasn’t really sure to what to respond to Yuna’s staring but Yuna’s full, cupid bow lips, smiled broadly as she closed their distance and took a hold of her hands. She extended them in front of her as the half-demon confessed, “I haven’t seen a human in such a long time!”
Just when she was about to answer the words never came out because Yuna got a crazy excited expression and pulled up her arms so high up in the air, she almost lifted her. Her kimono sleeves rolled down to reveal her elbows and the scent remover bracelet on her wrist. No wonder she hadn’t smelled her! Yuna’s nose twitched, sniffing her and then letting go of her hands. She took hold of her chin with a long cold finger turning her side to side. Her gray eyes analyzing her. Rin ripped away from her touch.
“What are you doing?!” she said annoyed.
Yuna gasped, aware at her rudeness and then bowed her upper body several times, “I am so sorry, Miss Rin. I got carried away. The little demon said you would be more comfortable with me, but I never imagined it was because you were a human.”
Little Demon? Ah. Master Jaken!
Rin scratched her head unaware of how to react to this strange half-demon girl, “It’s alright, Yuna. Just call me Rin.” Hearing little demon reminded her of Lord Sesshomaru and she quickly asked, “Do you know if Lord Sesshomaru and Master Jaken will be staying here as well?”
Yuna pressed her index finger to her chin as if pondering, “They should. All important guest stay here.”
Important guests?

“It will be an honor to form an alliance with the son of the great Inu no Taisho. We have heard marvelous things about you my lord.” Lord Takauji admitted, admiration fortifying his words
Lord Takauji was an older dog demon with a black/gray unruly tresses and bushy eyebrows. His once piercing blue eyes were sunken with age, one was clouded with cataracts that made it look pale blue. They were in a meeting hall that was quite modern compared to the architecture of the feudal castle. Lord Sesshomaru sat in a high wooden chair in front a rectangle wooden table with gold trimming. Beside him, Jaken sat in a high wooden chair but he was situated on wooden blocks to allow Jaken to see. The meeting room was full of bookcases filled with ancient scrolls and decorated with antique tapestries and silver ornamentation. It had varying sculptures of fish, dragons, and other figures he couldn’t quite recognize. Beside Lord Takauji’s right sat Namura his advisor, his book keeper Oda with braided black hair and deep blue eyes. He wore a modest brown kimono. Oda’s round face was decorated with blue talon marking on his forehead. His war general Nobuhito sat at his left. He had a chiseled face scarred by war. His purple markings eating into his scarred face. He looked out of place with his black bushy beard that touched the table but it matched perfectly with his wild hair. He wore his silver cuirass proudly. The one who stood out the most was Lord Takauji’s son, Suikito. He kept staring at Lord Sesshomaru with lively light blue eyes. Each of his eyes had a dark blue talon marking that dropped like tears against his tan skin. Suikito toyed with a strand of silky black hair looking at Lord Sesshomaru without caring the demon Lord stared right back at him. He had a smirk on the corner of his lips that was hard to interpret. They were all full blood waterdog demons.
“The Waterdog Kingdom was a strong ally with my father during the Panther demon war”
“Ah, yes! And during the Mongol army invasion, my lord. I remember fighting with the great dog general as if it was yesterday” A smile cracked his lips as if he could see it now. “It will be a great honor for you to accept our union, my Lord. Of course I can’t make any decisions without my brother, Lord Toyokuni”
“Of course” Lord Sesshomaru said as he took hold of the Sake in a wooden cup in front of him and brought it to his lips.
“Toyokuni should arrive in three days. While we settle matters, I want you to know my entire home is at your disposal, Lord Sesshomaru”
“Thank you”
The doors of the meeting hall opened suddenly, gaining the attention of the demons there to reveal a beautiful demoness. She wore a layered red silk kimono with black swirls stamped around it. The red color looked beautiful with her shoulder straight black hair. Her eyes were piercing blue just how her father’s eyes must’ve looked before old age took over. They were just as penetrating as her brother’s but without the cocky gleam. She had light talon markings on one side of her cheek. She sauntered in gracefully staring directly at Lord Sesshomaru, a seductive look in her eyes.
“I am sorry for the interruption father” she bowed. Her apologetic voice not sounding quite apologetic, but rather sultry.
“It’s alright. We can’t do much without your uncle here anyway” Her father answered as Sesshomaru dutifully stood up along with the other men in the room. She grabbed her father’s stretched hand. “This is my beautiful daughter, Azusa. She is the sea dragon trainer here, you see”
“Is that so?” Sesshomaru’s interest piqued just slightly.
Lord Sesshomaru bowed politely towards her as she lowered her head, “It is an honor my lord. If I am not to forward, I would love if you could accompany me tomorrow to show you my sea dragons.”
“It seems until Lord Toyokuni arrives we have more than enough time” he said accepting her offer.
Azusa joined the table sitting next to Lord Sesshomaru, as Jaken eyed her brusque actions not lady like at all. How dare she join a conversation of men! A servant entered with more sake, quickly refilling and serving and exiting just as fast. After talking about war memories the topic shifted to the outskirts of the Western Lands that were filled with human villages,
“I plan on rebuilding the human villages on the outskirts of my lands, that is correct. I plan on following what my father intended for the Western Lands.”
“A place where humans and demons could coexist. You share a fondness with humans as well, it seems” Suikito added with a minor smirk
Lord Sesshomaru not faltering answered, “Coexist to a certain extent. I assure you that is not fondness, but simply duty”
Lord Sesshomaru tried to ignore the way his claws twitched. He hated the smug shine on that wet dog’s eye.
“I think it is a brilliant idea!” Lord Takauji intervened with a loud chuckle, “Humans are building weapons that can destroy shiros, you know! It is only a matter of time before they try to take over!”
Azusa rolled her eyes as Sesshomaru said, “I highly doubt that such a weak race will ever be able to overthrow demons.”
After that the meeting broke up and everyone left their separate ways to retire. Lord Takauji offered his upmost hospitality to the Lord, and bid him farewell. Then they were guided by demoness servants that would accommodate Jaken and the Lord to their rooms in the guest shiro. The meeting room had emptied out with only Azusa and her father now in the office. Lord Takauji called his daughter to him as she stood by the window looking over the long stairs that led to the guest castle, hoping to catch a glimpse of Lord Sesshomaru. She went to him with crossed arms, standing by his chair and nestling her upper body in the empty chair in front of her.
“Now, Azusa, you and I both know that the Western Lord is a very powerful, and a very honorable Daiyoukai” Azusa knew exactly where her father was going. “Don’t try to do anything foolish on this trip of yours tomorrow. You are promised to someone else already. I won’t allow you to dishonor our family and our kingdom.”
“Yes, father” Azusa answered. No emotion in her tone, trying to hide the rage that wanted consume her feminine features.
She exited with a bow to run face to face with her haughty brother Suikito “How long have you been there you dog?!” She said between clenched teeth
Both Azusa and Suikito looked alike, both shared a beautiful tan skin tone and piercing blue eyes, but hers were larger, while Suikito’s eyes narrowed naturally into an intense gaze. She was much more hot-blooded than her brother.
“Long enough to know that you are planning on throwing yourself to the demon lord tomorrow” he smiled slyly.
She scowled pulling his arm and walking him as far as she could from her father’s office. Even if her father was old she was still afraid he would be able to hear, “That is no concern of yours!” she fumed
“You will do anything to not marry Naruhito, huh?”
There was actually some compassion in her brother’s voice then. Naruhito was a repulsive Turtle demon from a well-known turtle clan. Lord Takauji was selling his only daughter for armor. Turtle, impenetrable armor. During these warring states, her father wanted to have the upper hand against whomever wanted to take the kingdom. His ideas about human uprising fueling his need for protection. And if she could bed Lord Sesshomaru and have his mark on her then he would have to mate with her out of duty. He couldn’t deny a great demon lord’s daughter. She had tried to convince her father that with Lord Sesshomaru’s alliance they would be protected enough, but her father wasn’t persuaded.
“Look. Did you find out if he is what that human girl, or not?”
Suikito yawned utterly bored. He placed a black strand behind his silver pierced ear, “It’s not like that will stop you anyway, but no, they aren’t together, together. She seems to be a ward of his. She is awfully cute, though.”
Azusa wrinkled her nose with an “Agh” escaping her lips. She passed by him as he told her, “Please, be careful Azusa.”
She turned to give him a slight confident smile.
~End of Part 1~
                 Yuna combed Rin’s long hair admiring her thick locks as she prepared her for dinner. There was going to be a feast to welcome Lord Sesshomaru at the main castle and Rin was going to attend. Yuna had already gone through her bag and rummaged through all her silk kimonos, deciding that a navy blue kimono with silver print would look best for her at night. Rin was just excited to see Lord Sesshomaru’s face! She missed him. Yuna was a talker and that put her at ease in such an overpowering setting. She had slept and grown up in a humble village and this majestic kingdom, and having a maid, was making her feel strange. She was enjoying Yuna’s company, though. She reminded her of the girls back in Edo.
The moon was shining on the courtyard as they entered the feudal castle. Entering, she could already hear the resounding sounds of life. The way Yuna had explained it was that, the main castle only lived Lord Takauji and Toyokuni, Takauji’s two kids, and Toyokuni twelve kids and their generals and their children. The other smaller castles were other noblemen who had their own dining halls, and their own procedures. The sound of the shamisen overtook her ears as she entered through the doors of the enormous castle. She gathered her breath after walking up the long flight of stairs and preceded further. The inside of the main castle was different then the guest one. It had more of a contemporary feel with golden ornamentation. It all screamed royal! Rin didn’t have memories of ever seeing anything as attractive or as fancy as this castle and her awe was laced with uneasiness.
Yuna led her to the living area where demonesses dressed in white played the interesting instruments, their clawed hands pulling the chords with ease. She laid eyes on Lord Sesshomaru whose hair was collected up in a ponytail showing off his long neck. He wore a short black kimono that tucked into a black hakama, his haori that fell over his broad lean shoulders was red with a black sea dragon crest at the sleeves, a show of good faith. Lord Sesshomaru’s powerful body wasn’t done justice by the armor he always tended to wear. Without the heavy armor it was possible to see how the silk material clung to certain areas of his sinewy body.
There were a lot of dog demons there, most of them with raven hair and striking blue eyes. They were all gathered in little groups chatting, and drinking. Lord Sesshomaru talked with an older dog demon but turned his glance towards her without missing a beat of the conversation. Acknowledging her. She was then presented around by Master Jaken as Yuna went to the other servants and stood obediently against the wall where their eyes turned to the floor. Rin was introduced as a ward of the Western Lands and she could see and feel how the dog demons eyed her with interest. Not all of them had that raven hair common in waterdogs, some had hair as silvery white as Lord Sesshomaru’s. She wasn’t sure how to respond as some approached her asking questions about human life. No arrogance in their tone, just curiosity. She tried to keep her composure while speaking with them when tall ornamented doors, which lead to unimaginable places of the castle, opened.
It was then, when Rin felt time stood still as a beautiful demoness with shoulder black hair entered gracefully. She noticed how all the chatter ceased the moment she strolled in. Some of her black strands were pinned by jeweled clips and her scarlet silk kimono was as elegant and beautiful as she. She stepped forward as the tail of her kimono dragged behind her. She was complete sex appeal! Leading her in, was a demon as stunning as she was, he was three heads taller than her and Rin didn’t understand how she could’ve missed him. His hair shun, long and raven falling over his crimson haori over his coal under-kimono and hakama. Their outfits complimented each other, but it was their blue eyes that put it all together. She had never seen other demons besides Lord Sesshomaru that could silence an entire room with their beauty. She noticed as the gorgeous demoness, quickly ran to Lord Sesshomaru. She felt the pit of her stomach jump. They looked beautiful together, his pale skin contrasting with Azusa’s tan one.
“Stop staring!” Master Jaken hissed under his breath. She was now standing on a far corner after finally pulling away from prying eyes. Now she wasn’t the center of attention.
“I am sorry.” Rin whispered back. Feeling so out a place that it was driving her mad.
“Stand up straight!” She heard him scold again.
She didn’t fight Master Jaken this time, doing as she was told. She was trying to make the night bearable despite that right in front of her, Azusa placed her delicate clawed hand over Lord Sesshomaru’s shoulder while she spoke to him, and he didn’t seem to mind!
Eventually, a bell sounded and Yuna and the other servants followed the group into the dining hall. Every time she tried to go over to Lord Sesshomaru, she coward down, afraid that he would overlook her. She wasn’t having much fun now. They all sat down on the elongated mahogany table, the entire ceiling was covered with curved paper lamps that shun dimly above them. Jaken sat next to her, sitting on stacked wood boxes. He must be feeling out of place no doubt, but he never wavered! She could only imagine how he felt surrounded by powerful demons. Guiltily, that fact made her feel an itsy bit better. Servants began serving foods in large platters in front of them, but Rin didn’t notice because she couldn’t stop staring over at Lord Sesshomaru. She watched at how elegant and composed he looked, conversing with Lord Takauji. She then was startled when she involuntarily met eyes with piercing blue ones. She reddened instantly to be caught staring. She looked down at her plate of cooked meat, sliced thinly while the others were served larger quantities and raw. She looked up again to see the handsome young demon from earlier looking at her with those blue eyes. He gave her a smirk. His face was sharp with a beautiful straight nose, and pouty lips. He was extremely good looking, and he knew it! He had bad boy written all over him. Rin grabbed her chopsticks with shaky fingers trying not look back up.
How am I supposed to eat with him just staring at me?
Her neck began to hurt because she kept looking down to avoid staring over at that strange demon. So she rose her head staring over Lord Sesshomaru instead. She didn’t understand what Lord Sesshomaru spoke with the other men. Something about warfare. About human weapons becoming more advanced that could rival demon power. Lord Sesshomaru denied this fact, but Lord Takauji and General Nobuhito insisted that there will be a time that humans would take over and that demons would cease to exit.
“They are building cannons! Those can strike at a distance!” General Nobuhito exclaimed
She thought about that as she stared at the demons at the table. All emitting demonic auras as powerful as her Lord’s. How can demons as formidable as these ever cease to exist?
Once they were done, they all headed back to the living quarter, a few of them retiring and leaving. Those that were left were gathered by a high fireplace near where the demonesses played the shamisen. Lord Sesshomaru was passive, but respectful as he chatted with the others. It was the first time she had seen him chat so much and she didn’t think he was enjoying it much. Azusa never left Lord Sesshomaru’s side, her naturally sultry voice overpowering the male ones. It was getting her angry! She let out a sad sigh and spun on her heel to tell Yuna to take her back to her room, but instead she crushed against rigid muscles and a large hand quickly held her from her hips. She looked up to meet with piercing, troublesome blue eyes. It was him!
“Where are you going in such a hurry, precious human girl?”
Rin reddened and apologized and looked over at Yuna that stared intently at them with an odd expression on her face, “I am so sorry...”
“Suikito” He offered his name too her as she lowered her gaze again, awfully aware at the way his clawed hand wrapped over her.
“Forgive me, Lord Suikito” She whispered as he then raised her chin with a long claw
“Don’t Lord me, just call me Suikito” He gave her a charming half-smile that looked naughty instead of a welcoming.
Rin wasn’t conscious that as she dealt with this awkward situation, Lord Sesshomaru’s golden eyes kept glancing over at her. He felt a strange pang in his stomach, that same possessiveness eating at him. He wanted to convince himself that it was his dinner that had harmed his insides and that it wasn’t the fact that he was painfully mindful at the way that dirty waterdog placed his hand over Rin’s delicate frame.
“Now, do you have a name human girl?” Suikito’s soft voice asked
Suikito found the tiny flustered human, appetizing. His mouth watered looking at her.
“Her name is Rin” Yuna imposed. Pulling Rin away from Suikito’s grasp and pulling her towards her as they both glowered at each other.
“You are no fun, Yuna.” he said irritated. His charming smile concealing the irritation in his voice
Rin felt a breath of relief exit her as Yuna said, “Please forgive me, Lord Suikito but Rin is ready to retire.” the way she said it sounded more spiteful than respectful.
Suikito gave a cunning smile at both of them as he lowered his upper body into a bow, closing the distance between them. Even as Yuna held Rin from the shoulders he paid no mind until his mouth was just an inch away from Rin’s ear, his head gently pressed against Yuna’s breasts. Yuna dug her fingers into Rin’s shoulder at the sensation, “Have pleasant dreams, sweet Rin.”
Rin couldn’t believe this demon! Her entire body shook at the sound of his suave voice entering her ears. Even as Yuna and Rin descended the stairs Rin couldn’t get rid of the goosebumps on her skin.
“The nerve of that guy!” Rin said rubbing her ears, the warmth of his breath still lingering on one of them.
She didn’t even get to say goodbye to Lord Sesshomaru. She only accomplished to ask Master Jaken to say goodbye to him for her. Yuna grabbed Rin’s wrists drawing her near her until she was facing up into her gray eyes, “Rin. You need to be careful with men like Suikito, alright?” There was warning in her voice, “You don’t want to be marked by a demon like him.”
Rin frowned at her words. “Marked?” She uttered confused.
Yuna squeezed her wrists harder, “Oh Kami, Rin. Not only do I need to teach you suitable etiquette, but I need to teach you what happens when you get close to demon men like Suikito.” Knowing that she was alarming Rin she finished with a big grin, “Thank goodness you have me to teach you.”
                The fresh air entered from the back shoji doors the wind played with the light of the paper lamps. Yuna had already helped Rin with her bandages to reveal her healing back. What she was most amazed at was how wounds as deep as hers were fading so soon. When Rin told her about the demon sorceress possession, Yuna couldn’t help but feel sorry for the poor human girl. She brushed her long hair with a bone comb feeling a maternal protection inside her. She felt like she needed to protect her from lustful demons like Suikito.
“So Azusa is Suikito’s sister?” Rin tried to sound as nonchalant as possible.
“That’s right! They are the only children of Lord Takauji.”
“Oh.”
Yuna continued combing her hair seeing a shine beginning to form in her curled locks. She had the strange sensation that Rin wanted to ask something else.
“Is Azusa married?” She said in her best Lord Sesshomaru impression. Indifferent and withdrawn.
There was only one Lord Sesshomaru of course and Yuna didn’t buy it.
“You love him!” Yuna blurted
Rin stiffened at Yuna’s bluntness, “What?!”
Yuna dropped the comb and rose sitting in front of her with her legs curled beside her, “You love Lord Sesshomaru. That is why you were upset about Lady Azusa being so close to him tonight.”
Rin felt her stomach churn and her blood rush to her face. Was it really that obvious?! Had he noticed?! Never had anyone said it to her face and Rin had no idea what to say.
“Have you had sex with him?” Yuna continued peering into her chocolate eyes. Rin thought she was going to die. Rin’s face went from red to really pale, Yuna grabbed her hands to steady her. “You did didn’t you! Oh, no I am too late” Panic settled in Yuna’s voice, “Where is it? I didn’t see it when I was helping you undress.”
Rin’s embarrassment turned to confusion as the half-waterdog demon began undoing the yellow sash of her sleeping Yukata. She felt the soft material loosen by her breast and Rin scurried backwards away from her, “You are scaring me Yuna! What on earth are you talking about?! I haven’t...” She cupped her hand by the side of her mouth and whispered as if she was afraid someone would hear her, “had sex with Lord Sesshomaru.”
A big sigh of relief overcame Yuna as she placed her hand over her heart, “Good. Now come here.”
She patted the futon where she sat. Yuna was wearing a pink sleeping Yukata with matching Tabi socks. Yuna was a servant so she slept in the guest shiro as well. Rin crawled next to her cautiously as a seriousness overtook Yuna’s, always rich with kindness, eyes. Her mouth that always seemed to be curved with a smile, was now straight as if she was about to deliver some very bad news.
Rin sat in front of her placing her palms up on her lap. Her eyes slightly scrunched awaiting for the worst.
“Okay. I have no idea how to ease into it so here it goes.”
Rin nodded in vague understanding.
“Sex with demons is not the same as having sex with humans.” Yuna began to explain
She imagined that much, but how different could it be? Did they have teeth down there or something? Her puzzled expression made Yuna scream out, “Okay. I knew you were virgin, but please tell me you have seen a penis before!”
“No…” Rin confessed her cheeks burning. Reminding her of when she saw Lord Sesshomaru in the river. His beautiful glorious body was tantalizing but she hadn’t seen that. She shook her head as if that would erase the naughty images coming to mind.
Yuna stirred getting closer to her beginning to become frustrated, “It doesn’t matter if you have seen one.” She grabbed one of Rin’s hand to make sure she was looking at her and paying attention, “When demons rut with another demon, or human and she is pure then the demon that took her first, claims possession over her body with his bloodline’s marking. It’s like claiming territory.”
Okay. That began to make sense to Rin, but why was it the first time she had heard it?
“That is why demoness’s whose honor is important are always careful. If a demon claims you with no desire to take you as his mate the demons lineage symbol will be embedded in your neck forever.”
She pressed her fingers in the base of Rin’s neck for demonstration as Rin tried to take everything in, “For example Lord Sesshomaru’s ancestry mark is the crescent moon and is imbedded in his forehead, but it can appear anywhere. It’s a birthmark.”
Rin looked past Yuna to imagine herself with Lord Sesshomaru’s beautiful purple crescent moon on her body.
“That mark will tell everyone that you’ve been claimed by this demon and you will bear that mark for as long as you live, Rin.” That scared her, “That mark will always be a reminder that you were claimed by a demon first. And if the demon doesn’t want anything to do with you… that is your cross to bear”
When Yuna said that she saw a sadness in her gray eyes. A gloom that wasn’t there before. Rin placed her hand over Yuna’s hand. Their hands cupped together. Yuna noticed Rin’s worried expression and returned from her somber state as she continued, “For demon of such ranking and honor, like Lord Sesshomaru, it would be preposterous for him to claim a virgin without a mating ritual first.”
“Mating ritual?”
“Yes. When demons mate their partner they say a scared oath. This oath is only done once and it binds them for life. Once done, the lineage mark will be of a vibrant color somewhere in the woman’s face or body. In this case, if it were you, it would be a on your forehead”
Yuna pressed her index finger on Rin’s sweaty brow, “But I thought you said that it would be on the neck?”
Yuna sighed bothered, “That is if a demon takes you without mating with you. That is not a nice mark to have, Rin! That means he can mate someday but you will always carry the mark of his claim for as long as you live” The last words were spit out with contempt, but Rin didn’t notice.
“So does that mean that Lord Sesshomaru is a virgin?”
Yuna laughed this time, “I am sure he is not! Aristocratic demons like Sesshomaru would probably take claimed women, and he probably has a harem all for himself”
“A harem?”
“Ladies of the night, Rin!” She rubbed her temple. Rin’s innocence was driving her crazy. She didn’t find it quite as endearing as before, “Demonesses in harems are specifically chosen to give the Lord….pleasure. It is considered a high honor. And yes they are marked as well by him. They are his property. So no you see why being ill marked can be a disgrace, Rin.”
“But what if they have children?”
This made Yuna pause. That same shadow of sadness that had overtaken her before was back again. “Any child born from an ill marked woman is born a bastard and therefore never inherits the bloodline symbol.”*
            After their conversation, and even after changing the topic Yuna still had that gleaming sadness. She tried to cheer her up all she could, but even though she laughed the sadness that dulled her eyes remained. Rin grabbed her blankets and nuzzled them against her body looking up at the ceiling. Was Yuna’s sadness have to do with demon markings? She wasn’t sure. Even as Yuna had explained all about it, she wondered what it would be like to be taken by someone like Lord Sesshomaru. She felt shame at the thought. Of course Lord Sesshomaru would never do something as stupid as to claim her. She could only wish. She felt the heat on her cheeks form at the thought of his strong arms holding her tight. It is just enough to be with him! It is just enough for him to call my name. She closed her eyes and passed her hands over her breasts, holding them gently, imaging it was Lord Sesshomaru’s strong calloused hands. They continued roaming down her body until they rested between her legs. She felt the bracelet he had given her rub against the thin layer of the sleeping Yukata. What would it be like to be touched by someone like Lord Sesshomaru?
She stopped when images of Azusa came to mind, the way she placed her long fingers over Lord Sesshomaru. She was definitely breathtaking. Her entire body was slender and feminine. She was sure she had men begging to mate with her. Would one of those men be Lord Sesshomaru? He wasn’t here for that, was he!? Fear tore through her. The thought scared her. What will she do when Lord Sesshomaru mates? She had never thought about it before and the idea was enough to fill her eyes with tears. She wasn’t sure when sleep eventually overtook her and put her restless thoughts to an end at least for tonight.
****
            Azusa would do anything in her power not to mate with Naruhito. She clasped the liquid pheromone vial in her hand, looking at the pink liquid inside it as she returned back to land with Lord Sesshomaru. She had shown him her sea dragons, enormous, trainable creatures that made the Waterdog Kingdom one to fear. Once she mated Naruhito, her younger brother would take over. She would have to live in the marshlands with that Turtle demon and bear him disgusting young. She refused to go down without a fight! The afternoon was spent on her most precious black sea dragon, Namida. They had traveled towards the four castle towns that connected to the kingdom. Lord Sesshomaru was beautiful no doubt. Azusa had spent the entire trip making passes at him only to be blatantly ignored. She had even worn her best Yukata and when the thin purple material stuck against her skin, when it got wet by the warm ocean, Lord Sesshomaru hardly noticed. He barely looked at her. He scarcely even spoke! How arrogant he was! She clenched the glass vial in her hands staring at the way he walked in front of her with a steady predatory gait.
But he was so attractive with his long white hair, and those elfin ears. He would be her salvation! Her mouth watered seeing the way his black under-kimono covered by the royal blue haori formed around his chiseled body. His black hakama suited him perfectly on his long legs and she licked her lips longingly at the sight. This is the demon she should’ve been offered to. Didn’t her father want the best for her? His only daughter? Who would be better than The Great Lord of the West? They walked through the forest in the main land towards the castle. She had insisted to walk because she wanted to show him the rivers and hot spring’s that belonged to the kingdom. But she had noticed Lord Sesshomaru wasn’t a patient demon. She could see and feel his masked irritation at her suggestion, but he complied. Finding the perfect place to unfurl her plan, she lingered behind and opened the vial of pheromone. The sickly sweet aroma rapidly began entering her senses. She waited patiently until the potent concoction reached Lord Sesshomaru and then she saw him stiffen.
She saw him grip the hilts of his swords turning his head her direction his eyes narrowing in anger, “What have you done to me, woman?!”
He stormed towards her immediately and grabbed her by the neck before she could even react. Pinning her painfully against a tree she allowed his assault as the pheromone vile fell from her hands into the grass. He squeezed harder, fury overtaking his stoic demeanor. “It’s nothing that threatens your life. I assure you” She grunted agonizingly feeling the way her voice vibrated against his grip.
He let her go reluctantly, his insides convulsing as the pheromone began to weaken him. Lord Sesshomaru passed his fingers over his head frustratingly so. His chest beginning to rise in sharp breaths.
Azusa grabbed her sore throat and coughed staring over at Lord Sesshomaru whose groin began to harden under the thin material of the hakama, it created a large obvious tent. She managed to give a smirk despite the pain in her neck as she rubbed it to alleviate the way he had clasped her.
Sesshomaru felt an intense desire begin to eat at him. His demonic blood began boiling in his veins begging him for release. His senses were being clouded and he was losing control, hard and fast. There was one thing in his mind and one thing only: burying himself deep inside a woman’s tight sheath. He growled low in his throat when he felt Azusa’s arms wrap behind him. His senses had not picked up on her presence. She passed her delicate hands over the front of his armor less chest. Her delicate clawed hands began kneading his skin snaking into the lapels of his kimono, a claw tracing over his nipple. The sensation was like electricity against his body. He gnashed his teeth trying to regain control of his demonic instincts. But that task was not an easy feat when her breasts pressed against him, rubbing. He was aware of how her nipples rose against him.
She breathed against his back that stiff with muscles and unbridled strength, “This type of pheromone makes every little touch really intense, my lord. I made sure to heavy the dosage for such a big dog” A moan escaped her red lips as she began removing his haori. Only Sesshomaru’s carnal instincts seemed to be intact as her long filed claws grazed against the material of his kimono. It was as if she was touching his skin as she removed it from his body.
His cock jolted.
Foolish woman! His mind seethed. He growled when she circled around him until she was facing him. She grabbed his heavy hand and placed it against her breast, “The more you resist the more it will fight you. The way to get rid of the torturing feeling is to fuck me, my lord.”
He gritted his teeth at the way she said it. That smile on her face as if she had won was infuriating. He could kill her where she stood. His hand moved from her breast to her throat and tightened dangerously again. A gasp escaped her red lips, her shocked expression wiping that smile that was taunting him before. This woman intended to be marked by him. The old demon couldn’t be putting it her up to it. He had never offered her to him! In fact, he had told her she was promised to someone else. Taking and marking a great demon’s daughter so dishonorably would force him to mate with her, and he damn well knew that couldn’t happen. She disrobed slowly in front of him even as he constricted her long neck, his claws dangerously close to piercing the skin. With shaky hands she revealed the golden skin of her body as the clothes fell behind her instantly. All he could see now was her big breasts and her firm tan little peaks. Her lineage mark were fierce tribal lines a fiery cobalt above the nest of curls between her legs, begging him for entrance. He gulped thickly. Desire was burning within him and spreading like poison.
“Take me, my lord” She whispered. Her hands wrapping over his muscular forearm pleadingly.
He cursed under his breath at her searing touch and grabbed her with a fistful of hair and slammed her naked body against the tree. A painful thud that made her cry out in surprise. Her back was towards him and she let out a moan in desire as well as triumph as he nailed her arms above her head with only one large hand. With the corner of her eyes she saw him release the sash that held his hakama up and it dropped to his feet to reveal his massive cock, throbbing in unashamed need. Talon markings that didn’t quite meet over his thick girth elongated with yearning. She closed her eyes resignedly, readying herself for his intrusion but her blue eyes flew open in shattering fear when she felt Sesshomaru pressing against another hole….
She felt the way his swollen length and sharp clawed hand separated her cheeks to lean the bulbous head of hic cock against her puckered hole as he whispered in her ear in a low threatening voice, “I am going to take you just as you desire woman, but on my terms. I can guarantee the experience won’t be as enjoyable as it will be for me.”
Azusa whimpered in horror. This is not what she had planned at all...

~Okay, guys. So I am going to explain the bloodline marking idea. This is not a fact (Inuyasha experts don’t kill me) it was done for the purposes of this Fanfic only!! Lord Sesshomaru has his lineage mark on his forehead: The crescent moon. This not the same as a castle emblem, this mark is a birthmark. He got it from his father who carried it somewhere in his body. When Inu no Taisho mated with Sesshomaru’s mother she got the mark on her forehead and gave birth to a child that carried that mark. Since, the mating was under oath, it is why hers has color! And why she will always remain with it. So when Inu no Taisho fell in love with Izayoi and he took her virginity she was marked on her neck= ill marked (meaning he claimed her body as his domain but never mated with her). When she gave birth to Inuyasha he didn’t carry the bloodline mark because he was illegitimate. I hope this make sense because it will be important later on. Demons like Sesshomaru who care about honor and pride would not benefit from having ill marked women. That is my explanation. Thanks for your support!! <3~
