The Captive Bride

Chapter Seven � What Comes of
Demon Hate

Rin could hardly believe
that she had agreed to marry Sesshomaru. She had been so swept up in the
emotions of the moment, she was convinced that was the only reason why. But�she
knew that she couldn�t go back on her word. If she went back and said no, he�d
turn her to the police without a second look. She had no choice but to go
through with it.
That afternoon, as soon
as she�d said yes, Sesshomaru had swept out of the house, but not before he
told her two things. One was to start packing immediately because she was
moving into his house the very next day and two; they would be married within
two days time. Rin was incapable of speaking as she watched him leave the house
with a determined attitude as his words left her in a state of shock. Two days!
Why was he in such a hurry to marry her? Was he so untrusting of her that he
thought he needed to capture her as soon as possible?

Sesshomaru
set his car to a screeching stop at the front doors of a grey colored house. He
wasted no time in slamming open the front doors and heading inside.
�Koga!� Sesshomaru
called out to the wolf demon. �Where the hell are you at?�
He stood in a wood
paneled hallway with a staircase before him that led to a second level. Doors
were everywhere in Koga�s house and he hated having to search through every
one.
A door opened on
the top floor by the staircase and a sleepy eyed Koga emerged, yawning his
disapproval of the intrusion. �What do you want, Sesshomaru? I was sleeping.�
He stretched out
his arms to make the point. Letting them fall, he jumped back at the sight
beside him of a red-eyed Sesshomaru.
�I need to talk
with you!� He growled through clenched teeth.
�Fine, fine.� Koga
said while turning back to the office he had just exited. �But it had better be
good.�
�Oh, it�s good, it�s
better than good.� Sesshomaru divulged as he closed the door. �I asked Rin to
marry me.�
Koga spun around
with eyes wide as saucers. �You actually asked her? You mean to say that you, Sesshomaru Sadamoto,
Lord of the Demon Lands, actually asked a human woman
to marry you?!�
Sesshomaru scoffed at Koga�s words and crossed his arms. �You
told me to! You make it sound like it never could have happened! What else did
you expect me to do?�
�Knowing you, I never expect anything.� Koga leaned against
a desk, smirking at the dog demon. �I just never thought I�d see it with my own
eyes.�
Sesshomaru glared at him. �Shut up, wolf. Don�t get over
your head in excitement. You�ve still got a lot of work to do.�
�Me? Like what?� Koga complained, irritated that he wasn�t
going to be able to return to his afternoon nap. He moved around the desk he
had been leaning on and sat down in the chair, leaning one elbow on the desk top.
�Just what do you expect me to do?�
�You�ve got to call the board and tell them I�m getting
married. There�s also getting the marriage arrangements made for two days time.
I expect it all will be done by tonight?� He instructed Koga while smiling to
himself.
�Yeah, yeah, I�ll have it all done.� Koga slouched back.
�But I�m not going to be happy about it.�
�You�re not the one getting married!� Sesshomaru countered.
�How do you think I feel about this whole situation? I never wanted this in the
first place.�
Koga rolled his eyes and sat up in the chair. �Yet, here
you are, announcing your engagement to Rin. It doesn�t seem like you hate it as
much as you say you do.�
Sesshomaru glowered at the wolf demon and threw up his
hands in defeat. �Whatever. I�m leaving. Just make sure everything gets done.�
He opened the office door and paused before stepping out. Turning his head back
toward Koga, he smirked. �Oh, and call Kagura to give her the news personally. She�d
just love to hear about this.�
�Definitely.� Koga
said with an evil grin.

Kagura�s shrill shrieks of anger had
yet to cease as Koga dropped the phone back on its cradle. He smiled to himself
at how she had reacted to the news of Sesshomaru�s impending marriage. It was
worth its weight in gold to hear that demon woman say anything else other than
her plans to marry the reclusive Sesshomaru. It was a plan that wasn�t going to
work.
The door creaked as it opened and a
young red-headed Ayame stepped into the den, a little skeptical as to what had
just happened in that room. The long light blue dress she wore accented her
bulge of six month pregnancy.
�Koga, what�s wrong?� She questioned
with a raised eyebrow. �Sesshomaru just bolted out of here like his life
depended on it. What did you say to him?�
�Me? Why do you always think that
I�m the problem?� He countered, getting up from his seat and waking his way
toward his mate. �For your information, he was here to tell me something.�
�Oh, and what, pray tell, was that?�
She said, the skeptical look still evident on her
face.
�We may be going to a wedding very
soon, my dear Ayame. Maybe you should pick out a dress for the occasion.� He
said with a wink.
�A wedding!
That�s wonderful! Who is it?� She cheered, her face
filling with excitement.
�Sesshomaru.�
Her face went serious for a moment
as she calculated Koga�s words. �You�re joking.�
�No, honestly, he�s getting married!
He finally chose someone to marry and you won�t believe who it is.�
�Its not Kagura, is it?� She winced.
�I hate that retched woman. She reeks of death.�
�No, no.� Koga said with a laugh. �Far from it. Do you remember a few days ago when you picked
me up to go to your parents? There was a girl there among us, and Sesshomaru chose
her.�
Ayame�s eyes grew wide and her mouth
dropped, looking like a freshly caught fish. �NO! You�re not serious! He chose
a human to marry? What about all those rants he had about
hating women and even humans more?�
�Who knows.�
Koga shrugged his shoulders, he didn�t know the details. �The matter is he�s chosen someone finally.
We have to make sure that nothing stops this marriage. You understand?�
�I know Koga.� Her eyebrow twitched
in agitation and she crossed her arms.
�Everyone understands how important it is that Sesshomaru keeps control
over the Demon Lands. I just don�t believe that he�d willingly marry a human.
Is there something you�re not telling me?� He eyed him curiously.
�Me? Hide anything from you? Hardly!� He smiled back at his inquiring mate. �I�ll have
you know, he was drooling after her like a long-lost puppy the day he met her.
I think he has real feelings for her.�
�Really?�
Ayame reached out to wrap her arms around Koga�s head �You think he actually
likes this human woman?�
Leaning into her small form, Koga
sighed to himself. �On a few levels, yes, but he has a lot more to learn if
he�s going to be as happy as we are.�

Ayame jerked her head to look
at Koga in the eye. �What did you do?� She said with an under toned scowl.
Koga tried to pull back only to find
her grip tight around his neck. �What? I didn�t do anything!� He reacted.
�Koga, you only sweet talk me when
something�s up or you�ve done something. Now, are you going to tell me or do I
have to pull it out of you?� Ayame growled.
Koga sighed painfully. This was
going to be a long day.

That night, Rin could only sit in
the living room and wonder if she had chosen the right decision. She stared
blankly at the television, her mind on everything else but it. Her mother was
asleep in her room and Sango sat quietly to Rin�s left, intently reading a
book. Sango had insisted that she would stay at the house while Rin was getting
ready to move to Sesshomaru�s. It seemed
more like Sango stayed for protection. It was if Sango didn�t trust Sesshomaru
or his actions. Rin didn�t question her actions and Sango stayed.
A loud rapping at the door broke Rin
out of her trance, shaking her head to clear her cluttered mind. Sango stood, waving at Rin to stay seated and headed toward the
front door. A moment later, Sango returned with the visitor. Rin�s eyes grew
wide in surprise at who followed as it was the last person she thought to see. Rin
stood to greet them.
�Hello, you�re Ayame, Koga�s wife,
right?�
Ayame nodded with a smile, her red
pigtails bobbing. �I�m glad to see that you remembered my name. Not many do.�
�Thank you, but I�m confused. What
are you doing here?�
�Well, that�s difficult to
describe.� Ayame scratched her head for a moment. �You see, its part of
Sesshomaru�s families� tradition. The groom�s best friend�s wife is supposed to
stay with the future bride until the marriage. Don�t ask me why, it just goes
that way.�
Rin nodded in acknowledgement, but
her mind was seeing what the real reason was. �He probably still doesn�t trust
me�, Rin thought. �So he sends in a friend to watch over me until everything�s
final. Yeah, real nice to your future wife.�

�Well,
have a seat, Ayame. I think its time that we had a talk about Sesshomaru.�

Inside a dark room, Naraku sat
quietly contemplating his next move. News of Sesshomaru�s marriage had reached
him through Kagura�s wails of defeat, as she had thought Sesshomaru would
choose her. He could not let this fall through his fingers. Something had to be
done and quickly. Everything was so
close and now, that revolting Sesshomaru was ruining everything. His whole
plans were shattered, plans that had started since he had killed off Taisho
himself years ago. He had been next in line to take the company and he would
have had it all, but then Sesshomaru had come into the business and taken that
chance away from him. It couldn�t have been better planned, but then that
stinking human wench, Rin, had to show up and taint Sesshomaru�s mind.

Naraku�s
eyes narrowed as he contemplated the human woman. Where there was a will, there
was a way. No one was going to stop him from taking what was rightfully his and
his alone.

Rin had woken with the dawn again
and she hated it. Damn her internal clock! With some regret, Rin managed to
pull herself out of bed and down the hall to the kitchen. Passing through the
living room, Rin noticed Ayame sleeping on the couch, curled up in a ball. A
smile graced Rin�s lips as she stepped into the kitchen to make some coffee, as
it was going to be a long day. What with moving into Sesshomaru�s house and
actually having to live with him, Rin was scared out of her mind. Filling the
coffee maker, Rin leaned on the counter and waited for the life-giving brown
liquid to stream out. Staring out the kitchen window, her face saddened. It was
hard enough to leave this house, the place where she grew up. But to leave her
mother, it was heartbreaking. But Sesshomaru told her straight out that it
wouldn�t be possible for her mother to stay at his home. There were too many
complications.
Jolted from her thoughts, Rin heard
a pounding on the front door. Frowning at the wall clock, which read 6:30 AM,
Rin made her way to see what person had the nerve to knock on her door so early
in the morning.
Ayame stretched in her sleep,
feeling completely comfortable for once in her life. It had been a long night
as they all had talked late into the night. Before Sango or Rin realized it,
Ayame was out like a light on the couch, snoring softly away. Both gave each
other knowing smiles and headed to bed themselves. Through the haze of her sleep,
she heard the loud knock of someone pounding on wood. Curling up her nose in
disgust at the interference to her dream, which contained of
only her and Koga, and sniffed lightly at the air. Her eyes flashed open
in surprise as she recognized the scent. Sitting up from the couch, Ayame
looked over to see Rin approaching the front door, where the persistent
knocking was coming from.
�RIN! DON�T
OPEN THE DOOR!� She yelled out.
Rin only waved a hand at her as she
gripped the door handle. Ayame bolted from her seat on the couch, grabbing
Rin�s hand away from the handle. Rin
�Ayame?
What�s gotten into you?� Rin said, mortified at her actions.
�Rin, don�t open that door! You don�t know what�s behind
it.�
�Exactly! I want
him to stop pounding like that.� She reached for the handle again. Ayame preceded to yank her hand away once more.
�Ayame!�
Rin nearly screamed in protest. �Stop it!�
With a last amount of determination,
Rin grabbed the door handle and had opened it just a fraction of an inch before
Ayame could snatch her hand away.
The door blasted open and threw back
the two women onto the floor. They moaned for a moment from the initial impact
and then suddenly remembering their place, looked up at the assailant.
Confusion filled Rin�s face as a figure loomed in the doorway, his eyes
menacing and glowing red. Ayame growled low in her throat at the figure, but
did no more.
Taking a step into the house, the
figure approached them, a haunting laugh emanating from his lips.
�Finally, I have found you, bride of
Sesshomaru. And with the wolf wench as well, huh? It must be my lucky day.� He
said with a mocking tone.
�Bone Boomerang!�
A large white weapon flew through
the house, flying straight at the looming figure. He merely reached out a hand
and blew back the weapon. Rin and Ayame flinched at the contact, but Rin turned
to the left to see where it came from. Her eyes grew wide as she saw Sango
panting heavily and standing in the hallway, holding the weapon poised behind
her.
The figure sneered at Sango. �Ah, a demon hunter as well.� He snickered. �You think that
you can beat me with that weapon? You must be joking.�
He turned his attention back to Rin
and Ayame on the floor, ignoring her on purpose. But Sango�s anger was so high, she couldn�t see through his trap and threw the weapon
with all her might. Once again the white boomerang flew though the air, heading
for the intruder. Seconds before it could hit, he turned on the weapon, with a
smile on his face and threw back a large ball of energy. The cackling ball
sucked in the boomerang and made its way toward Sango.
Sango could only watch as her own
weapon was turned against her. It hit with a force that was unimaginable to
recognize, throwing her against the wall and cracking her head against a cabinet
door. She fell to the floor in a heap, her body unmoving.
�SANGO!� yelled Rin as she forcibly
watched her friend be attacked by this person.
Now that he had taken out the only
hint of resistance, he turned once again to the girls, only to find Rin alone.
Ayame was suddenly flying at him from the side with a high-speed kick toward
his face. He put out an arm and grabbed Ayame�s leg in mid-kick. Her face changed
to a state of shock and then even a deeper anger.
The assailant merely waggled his finger at Ayame and
clicked his tongue at her. �Now, now. You wouldn�t
want to hurt yourself so early, now would you?�
Dark forms shot out from his body and wrapped themselves
around Rin and the struggling Ayame.
�Ayame, don�t!� Rin called out to her, worried more on her
condition than anything else.

Ayame looked at her in shock,
but shook her head and let herself go lax. The dark forms wrapped themselves
all around Rin and Ayame until only their heads were exposed.
�Good girl. We wouldn�t want damaged property before the
fun, now would we?� he mocked. �You better hope that you mean a lot more than
you think to that insolent dog demon.�

Ayame growled with vehemence at the figure. �You bastard! He�s gonna kill you once he finds out what you
did. Sesshomaru will never give you the title, Naraku!�
