Chap 6 The Library

Shippo didn’t leave immediately for Jinenji’s. He spent a few days talking with Inuyasha, several days questioning the advisors and most of the time annoying Sesshomaru. One week after the invitation was drafted and still remained in the castle, Sesshomaru confronted Shippo.
“The invitation to Jinenji could have been delivered by now.   Perhaps I should send it by another messenger, one that is more reliable? One that is not a moocher?”   Sesshomaru stared at the fox pointedly.
Shippo appeared unbothered. “You’re the king. Do as you wish.”
Sesshomaru angered. His eyes reddened. Steam came from his aristocratic nose. Staring at the fox, he thought, ‘I despise foxes. They’re nippy and noisy and wild. They also have a nasty scent, which is not appealing at all. If he weren’t Inuyasha’s adopted brat, I’d…”
Shippo spoke up. “I just happen to know Jinenji isn’t at home right now. He’s made a pilgrimage to his father’s grave.   If I leave tomorrow he might be home.”
Turning swiftly, complete with hair flying off monokomo, the ice prince disappeared back to the library
A moment passed. Inuyasha turned to Shippo. “Why do you antagonize him so?”
Shippo smirked.   “I’m a fox. It’s in my nature to rile dogs.”   Shippo turned to look at his nails and preen his tails.
Inuyasha gaped. “You could have told him that a week ago, you know.”
“Keh. Slipped my mind.”

At the Library
Sesshomaru had spent many of his free hours in the castle’s substantial library. His grandfather had loved books and searched the entire world for interesting tomes to add to his library.   The library actually took up an entire wing of the castle. Complete with reading nooks and comfortable furniture, pillows, or futons, the library was a haven for a bibliophile.   A library that large needed staff.   The book worm demons who worked during the day were slow researchers but very methodical and could be counted on to find all sorts of hidden treasures. But lately they hid at night when the owl demons started shift.   Sesshomaru had commanded the owls to leave the worms alone but after several worms went missing the worm demons had gone on strike and refused to enter the library until the conditions were safe.   Sesshomaru realized after several days of impeded research, a full library table, multiple stacks of books that needed re-shelved and increasing frustration with the situation that he couldn’t just kill them all, he had to do something about the protest and he called Inuyasha to help mediate.
“Not that I mind, but why me?” The Inuhanyou’s eyes were wide open and roved the entire library.
“Little brother, I suspect you can come up with an alternative for the library like you did for the town,” Sesshomaru suggested.
Pleased by the praise from his mate, Inuyasha touched the nearby scrolls gently. Walking across the wide library he nodded his understanding but did not voice a reply.     A little while later a faint, “Allow me some time to think about it,” was heard.
“Of course.” Sesshomaru returned to a stack of books, papers, and scrolls he was pouring through.
Inuyasha continued his saunter through the collections.   Reaching for a pile he found a story about a festival. Taking the scroll he sat in the sunny spot near the window and began reading.   Before very long he was immersed in the story, laughing out loud and talking back to the characters in the story. All the while the sun warmed his back and as the time went on he became sleepy. Drifting off to sleep he dreamed of the characters at the festival and the fun events he read.
Two hours later moved by a need to get a drink of water, Sesshomaru uncurled from his studying position. An elegant stretch followed. He gradually moved from his mound of study materials. As he looked around his area he noted it resembled a nest of books, scrolls and papers more so than a dignified lord’s study area. Irritated he growled.   The more he thought about the situation with the owls and worms the angrier he got and the louder the growl became.
It was the growl that entered Inuyasha’s dream.   The joyful nature of the festival faded. Inuyasha heart rate accelerated and he awoke with a start.   Searching the area around for the source of the rumbling he noticed his mate was beginning to change into his demon form. Papers were flying, caught up in his demonic aura. Pages of books started flipping. The air pressure had increased and even moving required extra strength.
‘I must get to my mate. I must calm him before we have to repair the castle again.’ Inuyasha crawled across the library floor. Flying books hit him. Papers blew around him, blocking his vision, but before long he reached his brother’s boots.   Holding on for dear life, he attempted to get his brother’s attention. He yelled. He hit Sesshomaru’s leg. He squeezed his leg tightly. He even considered biting Sesshomaru’s leg, but thought better of it. He remembered Shippo suggested using sweetness. ‘Couldn’t hurt,’ he shrugged his shoulders.   He turned to the boot and started kissing it. Holding on and working his way up his mate’s body Inuyasha kissed and licked and blew warm air on every piece of flesh he could touch. All the while he whispered sweet nothings.
The actions caught the attention of the demon lord. Little by little Sesshomaru calmed. As he calmed the air pressure returned to normal and Inuyasha scurried up to his mate’s neck and quickly licked it. Books dropped. Papers floated back to the ground. Sesshomaru’s demon markings and the extended jaw returned to normal and Inuyasha moved his kisses and love bites from neck to jaw and then to cheek and finally to Sesshomaru’s lips. Soft lips met and tender caresses were exchanged. Hands moved up the sides of the demon lord and two bodies moved even closer together.   Inuyasha wrapped his arms around his mate and breaking the lip-lock sighed heavily.
“What on earth just happened?!”
“This Sesshomaru hates mess!”
The inuhanyou surveyed the room and then looked incredulously at his mate. Then bending over he started laughing.
The sweet sound of his mate’s laughter filled the air.
Sesshomaru attempted to break away and turn his back on his mate, but Inuyasha grabbed for him. “It’s ok, my love. It’s ok.”
Sesshomaru was embarrassed. He was having trouble dealing with his emotions.   In years gone by he would have just killed the librarians and hired new ones.   All subjects were to cater to him.   This bit about managing employees was not his thing.   It required compassion and patience.   He found those emotions annoying if not useless.   The introduction of a mate, specifically the one giggling at his side, had changed many things in the castle.   Those kitchen helpers cooed and catered to Inuyasha, coming to his side even before he called them. Was it so much to have the library servants cater to him! How hard was it to bring someone a book and put the others back up?!
Noticing Sesshomaru was quiet, Inuyasha continued, “Anyway Big Brother, I have an idea. I think it’ll work.”
Shifting back to Inuyasha, Sesshomaru made eye contact. “You have my attention.”
“I have to go visit the tailor first.   Tell the library staff we will be mediating this strike today.   They will be reconciled or fired.   I’ll be back in one hour.” And with that Inuyasha raced out of the library.
Looking about him Sesshomaru took in the mess he had created. ‘I cannot allow the employees to see this.   As much as I hate doing servant duties, I refuse to allow them to see the consequences of my actions.’ He gracefully bent over and proceeded to pick up the strewn papers and open books.   As he glanced over an open book he noticed a drawing. Picking up the book he studied the drawing. ‘I believe I have found something of importance here.’ Sesshomaru marked it and set it to the side to read later.   Maybe it was ok to tidy up after all.   He might find other treasures.    He picked up the scattered books and papers, setting several more to the side to peruse later.    After cleaning, he contacted Jaken and had Jaken arrange the reconciliation meeting between the owls and the book worm demons. He then returned to his “treasures” and resumed studying at the now clean big library table.
Inuyasha returned shortly before the meeting with a simple plain cinch bag. He sat next to Sesshomaru after looking over the library.   He considered asking Sesshomaru who cleaned it but decided he really didn’t need to know.
The two had no time to converse before the owls and Jaken carrying a box entered the library. The owls migrated to the right side of the big table and Jaken took the box to the opposite side near Lord Inuyasha.
Inuyasha stared at the box. “Jaken, where are the worm demons?”
A muffled voice called out.   “Safe in the box.”
“You dare to think that your Lords will not protect you!” snarling softly Sesshomaru started to stand.
Inuyasha put a hand on his mate’s.   “I understand you feel concern for your safety. We are here to discuss those issues with plans for reconciliation.   But we must be able to talk to you face to face.”
“Can you promise the owls won’t eat us?”
“My Lords”, hooted the matron owl. “We won’t eat anyone.   We haven’t eaten our colleagues. We fear for our lives. Lord Sesshomaru would sure end our lives if we ate the book worm demons.”
“Ha!” a sharp sound came from the box.   “Then where are the three missing worms?”
The owls ruffled their feathers and hooted their incense. Several pin feathers floated down and landed on the table. One landed on the distinguished nose of Lord Sesshomaru.   Silence filled the room.   Lord Sesshomaru crossed his eyes to look at the pesky annoyance and then with a soft pfff the feather floated the rest of the way to the floor.   He remained silent.
Inuyasha picked up the box and dumped the worm librarians on the table. “Look here. I’ll get to the bottom of the missing worms next but for now, I have this proposal.”   He opened the simple bag and dumped the contents on the table top.
“Owls.   You will wear these beak protectors while on duty here.”
The owls started to complain.
“Or you are fired.”
Silence returned.
A small elf owl demon cautiously raised his wing.
“Yes,” Inuyasha motioned to the owl scholar.
“Milord,” sheepishly he continued, “I’m Elwood. I want to help you find the three worms.   One of them was a friend of mine. His name was Jake”
The oldest librarian sucked in a breath of shock. He clucked, “A friend.   How preposterous. Owls aren’t friends with book worm demons.   They aren’t good enough to be scholars. Only owls are proper scholars.” The other owls’ opened their eyes larger at the admission from the head librarian. “Seriously, it’s as preposterous as a half demon being lord of this land.”
Sesshomaru’s sword sang true dividing the old fool in two.   Inside the owl’s belly were the three missing worm demons, clearly deceased.    The worms gasped in horror. The small owl began to cry.
“Jake! My friend,” he wept.
Tessaiga rattled. Sesshomaru pulled the sword from the sheath and examined the situation.   The imps of hell had already bound the owl but were looking confused at the worm demons. They looked up to Sesshomaru and raised their hands in surrender.   The lord swung the sword of heaven up and down as though he were dissecting the worms from the owl.   The worms returned to life.   The owl’s carcass dissipated into nothingness.
A small voice called out to the small owl. Elwood looked through teary eyes when he heard the sound he thought was forever gone. Inching slowly forward the book worm looked worried. “Why are you crying Elwood? Are you ok?”
Tears of joy poured down Elwood’s cheeks.   “Just happiness, Jake. Just happiness.”
The book worm adjusted his glasses and carefully looked over his friend.
“He is just ecstatic,” Sesshomaru interrupted. “I have just appointed him head librarian.   Now, enough nonsense.   Everyone get back to work.”
The owls and book worm demons gathered around the three new resurrected colleagues and began exchanging ideas for better organization of the library.
Inuyasha swept the beak protectors back into the bag and cinched it closed.   Bowing to his mate he smiled as he walked away from the table on his way to meet with the advisors.   The festival story had given him another idea.
Sesshomaru returned to the treasures and continued to read.
In regards to dog demon knotting:
When dog demons mate three phases occur. In the first phase, the male produces a clear fluid that has very little or no sperm in it. This usually takes place when the male is beginning to mount his mate. It can be used as lubricant to assist in male to male coupling.
Sesshomaru nodded agreement.
In the second phase, when penetration has occurred and the pair are engaged in vigorous thrusting, the male produces sperm filled ejaculate. At the end of this phase, immediately before the final “tie”, the most sperm filled ejaculate is produced.
Sesshomaru started feeling aroused.
The final phase is unique to the dog demon mating process. In the third phase, a portion of the male’s penis, called the bulbus glandis, enlarges (called a knot), and prostatic fluid with some sperm in it is released. This phase typically lasts about 15 minutes, although it can last anywhere from a few minutes to up to an hour, during which time the male and his mate remain “tied” or “locked”. Physically separating them can result in injury to either dog demon genitalia. The demons should rest during this time as moving around will cause pain. Healers should try to discourage dog demons from moving around too much during this phase, so that injury does not occur. If the male dog demon withdraws before the enlargement or knot forms on his penis, the breeding is referred to as a slip mating. This may occur because the mate moved prior to the formation of a knot on the male's penis or subconsciously the partners are not prepared for offspring. When a slip mating occurs, ejaculate that would be released into the mate in the third phase of mating does not occur and some leakage of 2nd phase ejaculate may occur. Pregnancy will not occur in slipped mating but it will occur when the knot is present.

The arousal was immediately doused. The book dropped from Sesshomaru’s hands. Jumping to his feet, he exited the library in haste. ‘I must go visit Bokusenō now!’
