CHAPTER 11: LOOK WHO CAME CRAWLING BACK

"I told you it was hopeless", Koga said as he floated through the wall of the last room in the mansion. For the past month they had been trying to find Koga's body by going through each room and searching it top to bottom. Their efforts had proved fruitless so far. Inuyasha wasn't discouraged though, he kept looking for the original plans to the manor, thinking there was something that they had to be missing.

"We're not giving up yet", Inuyasha left the empty room and headed down the hall, back to the study. "Do you really not know where your original blueprints are?" Koga phased halfway through the wall to hide his face.

"I don't know what I did with them okay", Koga grumbled. Inuyasha sighed equally frustrated.

"Look I need to finish an article for Kagome's magazine, we'll have to get back to this tomorrow", Inuyasha sat at his desk and reopened his computer trying not to get any more frustrated by the lack of progress on all fronts. The spirit watched from the wall as his lover returned to work.

'I didn't realize he was behind on his work', Koga was starting to appreciate how much Inuyasha did for him ever since he moved in. Inuyasha cleaned the mansion up, made it feel like a home again and not his eternal prison. Inuyasha befriended him when he did nothing but bully and try to scare him away. For the next few hours he silently watched him finish his writing. When Inuyasha was done he stood up from his seat to stretch his stiff joints. Just as he was stretching he felt an invisible force pick him up off the floor and press him up against the wall.

"Excuse you", Inuyasha glared at his ghost. Koga just grinned and pinned him against the wall with his metaphysical body.

"I'm trying to thank you, so relax and be still", the spirit whispered into his ear while gripping his lover's wrists with one hand and held them above his head.

"Thank me? Ah…for…hah…what?" Inuyasha said between gasps as he felt the other's lips on his neck. Koga didn't answer him, instead he used his ghost abilities to create four more arms from his torso. Two hands reached under Inuyasha's shirt to rub and stroke his chest and hips, while the other set of hands grabbed his rear.

"Am I interrupting?" Miroku appeared in the doorway with a perverted smile on his face. Without hesitation Koga snapped his fingers and caused the door to the study to slam in the vampires face. "How rude", he said from the other side. The couple continued to make out in the study for ten minutes. Inuyasha went from being pressed to wall to being laid out on the desk. Unfortunately, before Koga could nail him right then and there on the table the doorbell rang. One of them would have to go that.

"Ignore it" Inuyasha said between moans. Or maybe they wouldn't answer it. However the doorbell rang several more times, quite aggressively. "Dammit", the white haired man shoved the ghost away. Koga dissolved into mist and reformed after Inuyasha left the study.

"Heh. I let him get away too easily", he smirked watching his lover's hips sway as he marched furiously down the hall.

On his way to the front door of the mansion the bell rang many more times. Inuyasha cussed quietly to himself on the way there.

"Alright! Enough with the goddamn bell!" He shouted from the large foyer. It rang once more just to mock him. Inuyasha finally reached the door and threw it open. "I heard you the first…"

"Hey sweet heart", and there stood the last person he wanted to see. His ex-boyfriend.

"Bankotsu", Inuyasha glared at the man. "What the hell are you doing here?"

"Awe babe, don't be like that. Do you know how hard it was tracking down your knew address", Bankotsu smirked, trying to be charming.

"Fuck off! And don't call me babe asshole!" Inuyasha went to slam the door in his face, or would have if the other man didn't hold the door open by force.

"Look Inuyasha I just came to apologize", Bankotsu began. "And I want you back"

"Really?" Inuyasha crossed his arms and narrowed his eyes at his ex. "So when you cheated on me that was what? A misunderstanding?"

"Come on that was a one-time thing. It didn't mean anything", the man replied.

"Don't care. I don't deal with cheaters!" Inuyasha shoved him hard away from the door. Bankotsu got pissed at being brushed off and grabbed the other man's wrist.

"Hey! I'm trying to be nice here!" He tightened his grip.

"Let go!" Inuyasha was about to punch his ex when a familiar presence made itself known.

"Is there a problem here?", Koga appeared behind his Inuyasha wearing a borrowed pair of jeans and black tank top. The ghost didn't like seeing another man touching what belonged to him, and as far as he was concerned all of the white haired beauty belonged to him.

"Who the hell are you?" Bankotsu glared at the new guy.

"Oh I'm no one special. I'm just Inuyasha's boyfriend", Koga smirked as he pulled a blushing Inuyasha out of the other's grasp and gently draped his muscular arm around his shoulders. "Who are you?"

"He's my ex-boyfriend", Inuyasha told him.

"Oh! He's the limp dick cheating bastard you told me about!" Koga chuckled much to Bankotsu's ire.

"Wait! Your boyfriend?" Bankotsu asked. "You didn't waist much time"

"What was I supposed to do after our breakup?" Inuyasha asked. "Sit around in a house coat, eating tubs of ice cream while watching romantic comedies, because you're not worth it", he scoffed at his ex.

"Am I worth that?" Koga inquired.

"Maybe. We'll see", Inuyasha said glancing up at him. "As I was saying Bankotsu, I got over your cheating ass in less than a week"

"Looks like you traded up if you ask me", Koga smirked holding him tighter.

"You're certainly bigger than him, in more ways than one", Inuyasha replied with a chuckle.

"What is happening?" Bankotsu was confused. "Who are you?"

"Koga Okami, nice to meet you" The spirit said in an overly friendly tone. "I'm a distant descendent of the man who owned this manor centuries ago. I came here hoping to see the family home where I met this gorgeous angel and we hit it off", Inuyasha was pleased to see Koga come up with a quick improvised story of his background. They had yet to even talk about what they would tell the people about who he was or where he came from but this was good. "Now I don't mean to be rude, but I'm tired of talking to you", Koga smirked and slammed the door in Bankotsu's face.

"This isn't over!" They heard from the other side of the door then his footsteps leaving the stone porch. Inuyasha breathed a sigh of relief when he was gone.

"You handled that better than I thought you would", he smiled at his ghostly boyfriend.

"Of course I did. You forget what a smooth talker I am", Koga grinned and pecked him on the cheek.

"Pardon my French, but that ex of yours sounds like an ass hat", Miroku said appearing in a swarm of bats, having listened to whole confrontation, glass of red wine in hand. At least Inuyasha hoped it was wine.

"You know leech, I think that's something we can agree on", the spirit said with a nod towards the vampire.

"I'm pissed off now", Inuyasha grumbled walking up the stairs in the mansions foyer. "Too pissed off to cook. I'm ordering take-out", Koga floated up the steps behind him.

"Guess what we're having for dessert", He smirked keeping his eyes on that perfectly sculpted ass.

"Mind if I join?" Miroku asked with hopeful optimism.

"Fuck off!" Koga shouted from the top of the stair.

"That's what I'm trying to do" The vampire said back.

LATER THAT NIGHT

"How was that?" A naked Koga asked while an equally naked Inuyasha lay atop him on their bed.

"I can't feel my legs", Inuyasha whined then blew his bangs out of his face.

"Then I did something right", the spirit chuckled wrapping a muscular arm over the other's back. Inuyasha sighed, about to fall asleep on his lover's broad chest when his cell phone went off. Crawling off of Koga he slipped out of his firm hold and grabbed his phone off the night stand. With a brief glance at the caller ID he hit answer.

"Sesshomaru, do you know how late it is?", Inuyasha said annoyed.

"You told me to call as soon as I found what you were looking for", His older brother spoke calmly.

"The one time you take me seriously", Inuyasha snapped. "Wait! You found the blueprints?" While they were talking over the phone Koga leaned over and started kissing along his lovers back and shoulders.

"You kept stressing how important they were", Sesshomaru said in a dry tone. "Don't know why it's so important to you, but I'm sending them to you in a package, they should be there in a few days".

"Sorry for doubting you", Inuyasha suppressed a moan when Koga's lips found a very sensitive spot on his shoulder blades.

"Apology accepted", Sesshomaru said evenly. "Also I can hear your boyfriend's loud kissing", then hung up making Inuyasha flush in embarrassment.

"Round two?" Koga asked pulling him closer.

"Fine, but I get to be on top", Inuyasha said turning the spirit over on his back, the feeling in his legs returning.

SAME TIME DIFFERENT PLACE

Sesshomaru let a small smile grace his features after he ended the call. He was alone in his office late at night so nobody could see this rare sight. The one thing he didn't grow out as an adult was taking the time to tease his younger brother. He was never out right mean when they were kids and Inuyasha was always quick to fire back with the insults, but even after all that they still had each other's backs. Sesshomaru did his best to protect Inuyasha from anything that would do him harm. Which was why he was currently staring at his computer screen looking at an old painting from over a century ago. The portrait was of the first owner of Okami Manor, Koga Okami. The painting was strikingly similar to Inuyasha's current boy toy, they even shared the same name.

His research into this also led him through the various paranormal accounts from the many owners over the decades. The accounts described a ghost. A tall lean muscled tan skinned man, with black hair tied in a tail, piercing sky blue eyes, dressed in a white silk shirt, black vest, pants, and a dark flowing and ragged cape. He even managed to find a sketch a previous resident did years ago of the spirit that haunted the manor. The drawing was the same as the man in the painting, Koga Okami.

Now Sesshomaru didn't believe in the supernatural, but these accounts and similarities were too numerous to be mere coincidences. Something strange was going on here and he was worried his younger brother was perhaps in danger. His worries increased when he found the Okami family tree. Koga Okami didn't have any children or descendants, so that ruled out Inuyasha's boyfriend being a long lost relative. When it came down to it there really couldn't be any other explanation which led Sesshomaru to one frightening conclusion. That man was the Koga Okami.

"Though I really don't understand the mechanics of a ghost dating a human", he said aloud to himself.

AT ANOTHER PLACE

"Little biiiitchhh", Bankotsu slurred as he downed another drink. He decided to stop at a local bar after leaving that gaudy mansion. Here he thought winning back Inuyasha would be easy, but that slut apparently moved on and was dating some rich pretty boy. That fuck even had the nerve to slam the door in his face. Now here he was getting drunk off his ass, instead of coming up with a solid plan to get back his rich ex.

"Can I buy you a drink there?" A stranger asked as he sat on the stool next to Bankotsu.

"What…ever", He glanced over seeing a blurry image, he was too drunk to get a clear look.

"Let me guess", the stranger chuckled. "Girlfriend troubles?"

"More like ex-boyfriend…troubles", Bankotsu placed his head on the counter. "Stupid Inuyasha…cant aaccept a dam apologee", his words were becoming more slurred. "And dat Koga fuuuck"

"Please", the stranger passed him another drink, unknown to Ban smirking darkly. "Tell me more"

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! Sorry for the long wait, I've been having trouble piecing the rest of this story together. It's probably because I never planned this one out, it was mostly just me having fun with an idea, which isn't a good way for me to write now that I think about it.

We're working towards the end of this now. A few more chapters probably three or four. There was going to be a sex scene in this chapter, but I had to cut it because it was so terribly written. Yeah I can't write a good love scene. It just comes out awkwardly written, it's not the first story where I fucked that up. I need to read more authors works and research how they "do it" so to speak. Alright enough innuendos.

Also the cheating ex-boyfriend is back! Will he cause problems in the near future? And who is the mysterious stranger he met at the bar? Find out next time!

Thanks for reading and for the patience.
