Kagome decided she would go back to their room, after all, at some point, she would have to, right? Walking down, making her way as she drew closer she heard his voice.
"I desire a woman,"
Kagome put her hand on her mouth to keep her from gasping. She prayed he would not pick up on her or the baby.
"A woman my Lord?" Kagome heard an old man say.
"I will not repeat myself; now go."
"Yes, my Lord!" The old man said and dashed off; he turned down the hall and came face to face with Kagome. The old man gave her a sad look a bowed his head, she gave him a look that told the man just to go. Kagome waited a moment before going back down the hall, back to where she came from, back to another room.
Sesshomaru walked back and forth, so many things bothering him, he never let things bother him. First his son, second his body was reacting to his mates, third his father, fourth, his brother, and last of all he needed to rut and badly. He figured that's what was calling him to his mate, but he could go to her, she would give herself to him, and he could not make her, not again.
As soon as the door opened and the female demon dropped her dress, Sesshomaru growled very loudly. Something in him snapped, he didn't know if it was him or his beast or both, but whatever it was he didn't like it.
"Do I not please you, my Lord?" The woman said in a sexy voice as she stepped closer to him; he backed up and sneered.
Kagome was in her room when she heard a growl she didn't know what to think of it. Then her door flew open, and in came her elder Lord. "Come, you must see this," He grabbed her by the arm and pulled her along "See what! I don't want to see!" Surely he was not talking about making her see him mate rut with another woman. This was an inu thing, wasn't it? Well, she didn't want any part of it! He pulled her outside of the room and stopped "Watch," he told her. Watch what? All she saw was her mate's door and a hall.
Sesshomaru's growl of warning became louder, but she still advanced and placed her hand on his chest. At that moment he turned her around and slammed her to the ground "Do you dare disrespect your Lady?" he asked, his eyes bleeding red. The woman turned to him "The Lady? you called upon me Lord is it not you who disrespects her?" She was out of line, he wondered if his mate would be displeased if he just took off the woman's head.
"I was told you cared not for your mate that she only bore your child," The woman stated, her face flush to the ground but apparently she wasn't that afraid.
"Perhaps she can not please you?"
That was it. He grabbed her naked and all and threw her into the door, which went flying, sending her and it out into the hall. Kagome gasped when she saw the door and the woman come flying out. Sesshomaru stood there, his eyes landed on her, damn.
Not only did she look at him but the naked girl before them. Kagome ran to the woman and removed her overcoat, and placed it on her. "Have you lost your mind!" She yells at him.
"Woman, you know not what is going on here," He warned her, but she did. "Oh, but I do!"
He took a step toward her, but she placed her hand up "No," she warned him "I don't want to know nor do I care Sesshomaru," The woman stood up along with Kagome. "What will you do with her Lady Kagome?" Kagome looked back at Sesshomaru's father. How dare he ask that?
"What will I do with her? Nothing, why would I do anything to her?" She was lost; he called her here. "She has been naked in front of her Lord; she dishonors you."
"He called her here! It is he who dishonors me! Not that I care, not that he cares," Looking at Sesshomaru as she said the last part.
"Forgive me, my Lady," The woman bowed her head,
"No, just go,"
The woman ran from the castle. Kagome just shook her head at Sesshomaru before walking back, stopping at his father and glaring at him, and then walking back to her room. Demons! She had, had enough why could her life not just be simple?
He looked at his son and pulled out the book from his side and threw it hard at his son "Read it again," he said harshly "Pray that head of yours comes up with something." He sneered and then walked away.
He told himself he would stay out of it, but he needed to tell her.
Following her he asked, "Are you angry?"
Kagome again sighed, but before she could answer he spoke again "He sent her away," Again she tried to talk but he kept going "He might not know it yet my dear but all he wants is you." She didn't try to say anything this time, and he didn't stick around to hear it if she had.
Kagome bit her lip, she wondered, did he, did he really want her? But more importantly, did she want him? When she thought he was with someone else her heart raced but why? Wasn't she supposed to hate him?
She wished he would just ask or say something, anything. Give her something more than just demands and a cold glance.
Did that mean she wanted him? Did that mean she forgave him?
No, she could not let her heart give freely until he asked to be forgiven, she deserved that much. If it was true, if he cared for her he would do this.
If not, then that was that, fate be damned.
