The Wedding That Ended In Death

Chapter 6

As Sesshoumaru escorted me back to my room, I sensed that something was troubling him.

"Sire, may I ask you what's wrong?"

He glanced at me, pain within his beautiful eyes. "Please, don't call me that. I feel as if we know each other well enough to dismiss the formalities. Don't you?"

I nodded. "Yes, I believe so,"

"Alright then, Sesshoumaru will do fine."

"Well then, Sesshoumaru, why do you seem troubled?"

He stopped walking and grabbed my arm, spinning me towards him. With his arms wrapped around me, he lowered his face. "I am beginning to feel so much for you, my young princess," he smiled and then touched his lips to mine.

We kissed for what seemed forever. It was the most amazing experience I had ever felt. He was talented with many things, and his mouth was definitely one of them. After a few moments, I could feel him pull away from me and I sighed.

"Did that, uh, upset you?" He asked me.

"No, of course not," I grinned, not too much teeth I hoped.

He laughed. "So, I believe I'm not that shabby, eh?"

"No, sire, you are not."

"Come Kagome, I will take you to your room."

"Oh, okay," He clasped my arm softly and we headed to our original destination.

Inuyasha's eyes narrowed as he watched his brother and Kagome swap spit. "Who does he think he is!" he muttered. He watched as they began to walk away. "He probably thinks he's going to get some, but I don't think Kagome is that kind of girl." Inuyasha laughed to himself as he imagined his brother with a large red handprint on his cheek. 'I'd better follow them, just to make sure she's okay,' Inuyasha thought to himself.

We finally made it to my bedroom, and we paused awkwardly outside it. He gave me a sultry look, sending chills down my spine. "Kagome," his said, his voice took on a husky tone.

"Yes?" I squeaked.

"Are you…comfortable with me?" He asked.

I nodded.

"Good, good." Sesshoumaru took a giant step towards me, his body swallowing the space that used to be between us.

I swallowed hard and I looked down and noticed that something else had turned hard as well. "Sesshoumaru," I whispered.

"Please," he mumbled as his mouth took mine again, but this time it was not as tender or as sweet. It was good yes, but a bad kind of good that frightened me.

"Oh Kagome, you do so many things to me, do you know that?"

"No," I said breathlessly between kisses.

"Yes, you do," he moaned against my ear. He grasped my right hand and started to pull it downward. I knew what he was doing and I was surprised at myself that I did not pull my hand back. He rubbed it over a rather hard and large object and I gasped.

"That's how much I care for you,"

"Maybe we shouldn't do anything before…" I mumbled against his face.

"Before what?" He interrupted me. "Our marriage?"

"Mhm,"

"Oh Kagome, but then you'll have practice for that special, special night,"

"I,"

"You want me, admit it," he kissed me hard.

"I,"

"Jeeze, Sesshoumaru, aren't you usually supposed to seduce a woman inside a room, not outside of one." Inuyasha's laughed as he stared at us.

Sesshoumaru's mouth stopped moving against mine, and he dropped my hand quick. "Ah, brother, don't you know it's not polite to stare?" He said as he slowly moved away from me.

"Please, it's not like I wanted to. Just this is just so obscene, it's hard to miss,"

"Inuyasha, it'd be best to watch your tongue."

"Or what?"

Sesshoumaru grinned and raked a hand through his hair. He turned to me and bowed. "Princess," He gave me a peck on the cheek and strode away from Inuyasha and I.

"Well, well, well," Inuyasha whistled. "Never thought you'd be the kind of girl that would…"

"You're right, because I'm not." I sighed and leaned against my door. "Thank you for showing up when you did, you saved me from doing something that I know I would have deeply regretted."

Inuyasha nodded. "You're welcome," he glanced at the floor and looked me in the eyes. We held our gaze until I blushed and looked away.

"Kagome, I…" Inuyasha stuttered.

I looked up at him, "Yes?"

He bit his lip and scowled. "Nothing just, have a good night's rest." He walked over to me and placed a kiss on my cheek. Disappointment was what I felt when he did that, and I disliked the way my heart pounded as he stood next to me.

"You too," I whispered, our faces close.

"Yeah," He said and he pulled himself away. He smiled and headed down the hall.

"Inuyasha!" I called after a moment. He spun around and looked at me. "Thank you," I said.

He nodded and continued to walk away from me, and my confused heart.
