Chapter 22: The Choices We Make

The five left behind watched as the other four moved off towards the wolf demon's lands, two of the five with heavy hearts.

After everyone had found out the news of Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha being together the girls, with Shippo and Kirara, had decided to stay together. Miroku stayed behind with the demon lord, his retainer, the small girl and his hanyou friend. The monk did not want Inuyasha to feel abandoned, knowing he had issues with this, so had not left with the girls, much to the aggravation of Sango. But he stood firm, telling her he would not leave his friend. Inuyasha hadn't said anything but Miroku knew he was grateful he had remained; he even thought that Sesshoumaru was pleased with his decision.

Sesshoumaru was sad for his mate, he knew it had been a hard thing to let go of the miko and that he would always have feelings for the girl. He was ecstatic for himself though. He had had his doubts that his brother would tell Kagome and feared that he was going to be abandoned yet again. For him, his Inuyasha, he would aid them in their quest to defeat Naraku and gain the shikon jewel. Their group would be leaving tomorrow to track down the baboon clad spider demon. He was also glad the monk had remained, knowing it would lift his brother's spirits to have him near.

"Things will work out," Sesshoumaru stated to his mate, feeling the sadness encircle Inuyasha again. He hoped he wasn't having regrets. He planned on marking him tonight and completing the bond between them.

Inuyasha sighed and stood there after the others had gone back into the castle until the girls were not only completely out of sight, but also out of scent range before turning himself and heading back.

That evening, as the two brothers retired to Sesshoumaru's bedroom, the demon lord watched as his mate slumped down on the futon, a sad expression on his face. "Give her some time and I am sure you will be friends again," he told Inuyasha. "She will come around, she seems like she has a kind heart."

"Yeah, and right now, I broke it," the hanyou returned sadly.

"Do you regret choosing me?"

Inuyasha looked up in surprise at, not only the question, but the emotion he heard in his brother's voice. Was that fear? Is he afraid I'll leave him? "No, Sesshoumaru, I don't regret anything that has happened between us. It's weird, I feel complete with you, like we were meant to be together."

"I feel that way as well." Sesshoumaru went over and sat on the bed beside his mate. "I would like to mark you tonight," he whispered in one ear then he took his tongue and traced along the edge of it causing pleasant sensations to travel down the hanyou's back.

"I love it when you do that," he sighed, leaning closer to the contact. Sesshoumaru reached up with his hand and began to rub the other ear. He continued to use his tongue to lick gently from the base to the tip on the fluffy triangle, before swirling it into the ear itself, causing his brother to melt against him, a soft moan breaking free from between his lips.

"Hey, it's supposed to be my turn," his puppy whined, making Sesshoumaru smirk.

"Sorry but you will have to skip it this time." The demon took the pert puppy ear between his teeth, nibbling gently and tugging softly on the tip. He ran his hand down and under the haori feeling his brother's nipple jump to attention when he stroked his thumb across it.

Inuyasha pushed back on his brother's body, bringing him to the mattress of the futon, grabbing his lips with his own and pushing his tongue into the demon lord's mouth. He kissed his mate hungrily for a moment and then broke the contact. "You're not going to distract me, I intend to take my turn," he growled out, smirking down into the face of his brother.

Sesshoumaru raised an eyebrow, "Is that how it is?" he questioned cockily, grabbing his brother and flipping them so Inuyasha was pinned under him. He brought his teeth and lips to the squirming body below him, stripping the boy of his clothing as quickly as possible and still maintaining the pressure, not allowing the hanyou to break free.

"Sesshoumaru, get off," Inuyasha squeaked, trying to buck his older brother off half-heartedly as the pleasant sensations began to take over his mind. He gave out a heavy moan and stopped fighting completely when his brother took his manhood in his mouth.

The older demon teased the tip with his tongue, swirling under the head and into the slit, feeling it enlarge under his gentle bathing. He swallowed it fully when it was completely engorged, sucking greedily in one moment and then gently grazing the shaft with his fangs in the next.

Inuyasha was panting and mewling as he began to feel the first indications of heat forming in his belly. He reached down and entwined his fingers into the snow white hair on the head between his legs, thrusting himself into the warm orifice, moaning louder as his brother took him into his throat without resistance.

Sesshoumaru set up a steady rhythm, allowing his brother to fully push himself into his throat, but not allowing him to increase the tempo. He snaked his tongue all around the shaft as he brought his head back, sucking firmly, flicking his tongue into the slit at the top of the head. He enjoyed feeling his brother's erection twitch and pulse in his mouth, letting him know he was pleasuring the boy. He added his hand to the mix, gently kneading his brother's sack, his own excitement mounting at the new noises of pleasure he heard from above his head.

"St…stop. Sesshoumaru. I'm getting to close," Inuyasha breathed, not wanting to orgasm this quickly, he still wanted to be inside his brother when he did that. He tried to push his brother's head away but the demon sucked harder, holding his brother's length in his mouth by suction and putting his arm around his younger brother's hips and back to hold him in place.

The hanyou tried desperately to ignore the intense grip on his manhood and how it increased the heat in his groin. "Nugh, don't, stop…ahhh." Just as he was about to let loose his seed his brother stopped. Sesshoumaru had felt when his younger brother was about to cum and took pity on him, he didn't want it to be over to soon for the lad either; he just wanted to tease him a little.

Inuyasha lay panting and feeling slightly frustrated. He had been so close. "Damn it, Sesshoumaru," he growled out.

"You told me to stop," the elder replied as he kissed his way back up the young body to find his mates lips, removing his own clothing as he went.

"Well…yeah, but you kept going, you should have finished," he grumped, not really angry as the soft kisses traveling up his belly were making him forgive the indiscretion. He helped Sesshoumaru shuck off his garments and when he reached his lips and gently took the bottom one between his teeth to nibble, Inuyasha flipped them again, grabbing his brother's wrist and holding it tightly above his head where he wouldn't have as much leverage to break free.

"You owe me for that," he smirked, his lips so close to Sesshoumaru's that his breath ghosted over them causing the demon lord to tremble slightly. He dropped his head and began to chew on his brother's lower lip. He could feel the demon's heart beating fast underneath his skin and when Sesshoumaru let out a soft, moaning sigh his manhood gave a strong twitch. He moved his body off to the side slightly and trailed kisses from beneath his brother's ear down his neck to his marks, making his brother groan loudly when he licked and then nipped at them with his teeth. Only then did he let Sesshoumaru's wrist go, knowing he wouldn't try to be dominant now. Maybe he was cheating using the demon's marks against him, but at the moment Inuyasha could have cared less, it was his turn, damn it.

He growled possessively against the demon lord's neck as he snaked his hand down his older brother's body to take his sex in his hand, feeling satisfied when Sesshoumaru jerked his hips upward at his touch. He stroked the organ gently, his fingers and palm just ghosting over it, driving his brother to twist and pant. The hanyou could feel his brother become even harder if that was possible. He began to pump faster and grip with his hand more firmly, giving his mate the friction he desired as he continued to lathe those mating marks with his tongue.

Sesshoumaru could feel himself building towards release. He wanted to stop but the pressure on his manhood felt so good and that tongue on his marks was making him want to stay where he was and submit to his brother. He wouldn't be able to mark him if this kept up; he needed to be dominant if that was to happen. Shaking his head mentally to try and clear it from the lust haze, and using every bit of will he had, he sat up, jerking his neck away from his sibling.

Inuyasha was caught by surprise and stopped what he was doing, afraid something was wrong. Sesshoumaru should not have been able to break away from him like that; he should have wanted to submit. "Are you alright?" he asked worriedly.

"Yes," Sesshoumaru panted. "I want to mark you but I cannot when you are doing that."

"Why not?" the hanyou asked, confused.

The demon lord put his hand to his chest to try and calm his wildly beating heart. "Because I need to be in the alpha position, you are making me too submissive," he explained, blushing at the admittance of his brother making him lower in status, even if it was just for a moment. "But I think I know of a compromise where I'll be able to mark you and you can have your turn," he stated, giving a small, sexy grin towards his brother.

Inuyasha was all ears, the way his brother was smirking it looked like whatever idea he had was going to be pleasurable. He grinned back, waiting for whatever his older brother had in mind.

Sesshoumaru scooted forward towards his seated brother, pushing his legs wide apart so his manhood was displayed. The demon lord then squatted, resting his weight on the balls of his feet, his own legs spread wide so he had a knee on either side of Inuyasha's torso. He pressed his body forward, groaning at the feel of his cock rubbing against the hard muscles of the hanyou's abdomen, and brought his arm around behind his brother's neck to keep himself balanced. He raised himself up enough so his anus was positioned above his mates throbbing appendage. "You are going to have to guide yourself in," he sighed softly, resting his forehead against Inuyasha's.

The half demon reached down and held himself in place as his brother sat back down, enveloping him slowly inside that tight heat. He heard Sesshoumaru hiss at the initial pain of penetration so he didn't try to thrust upwards, instead waiting for his mate to become comfortable and fully impaled in his own time. When he was all the way in he put one arm around Sesshoumaru's shoulder to hold him close, the other he left draped behind the demon's back, cupping the cheek of his mate's rear with his hand.

Sesshoumaru began to move up and down, slowly at first and then faster, flicking his hips towards his brother when he was all the way down his shaft, putting more of that thick muscle into himself. Inuyasha helped lift him with his hand under his right globe, his breath coming in hard pants.

"You feel so tight," Inuyasha moaned. He wanted to move himself but the way he was sitting was making it extremely difficult to do, so he had to wait for his brother to set the pace.

Sesshoumaru too was panting hard, the position he had put them in, with his legs spread as they were, made his inner muscles tighten more than they normally would, increasing the pleasure for them both. He leaned his head in capturing his brother's lips in a kiss, pushing his tongue into the hot cavern and tasting his brother fully. It made his head swim and he knew he wasn't going to be able to hold out long.

Sweat was dripping slowly down both brothers bodies as they each moaned into their kiss. Sesshoumaru nuzzled Inuyasha's head to the side, tracking his tongue and lips down his neck to the junction between neck and shoulder. He pushed down harder, striking his own pleasure spot, his feelings of ecstasy increasing hearing his hanyou mate give a throaty yelp.

"I'm going to cum," Inuyasha breathed huskily, the feeling of those tight muscles gripping him so hotly making his belly swell with fire, the sensation coursing out towards his balls. He dug his claws unconsciously into his brother's soft cheek as he moved his head further to the side so Sesshoumaru could gain better purchase to the sensitive spot on his neck.

The demon lord grunted in reply as he continued to slide up and down on his brother's length repeatedly stroking his prostrate, making him see stars at the sensation. With a large groan he thrust down as hard as he could, clamping his teeth into Inuyasha's neck as his orgasm shot through him, releasing his seed hotly between them.

Inuyasha howled as his brother's muscles squeezed him so tightly and let loose his seed as well, the slight pulling sensation of Sesshoumaru sucking his blood at his neck increasing his pleasure.

They both collapsed backwards, Inuyasha slipping free as they hit the futon. Sesshoumaru softly lapped the wound he had made, four small marks identical to his own. He gave a satisfied grunt as he stretched out his cramped legs, hearing his knees pop, and then they both drifted off to sleep, wrapped in each other's arms and love.

Into the depths of hell

And upwards to heavens gate

There is no one I would rather be with

Than you, my precious mate.

THE END

Wow! I got so many hits on this story I just couldn't believe it. Thank you everyone who read and sent me their comments, there is just too many to list but know that I appreciate that you guys took the time to read my little drabble. I am so glad that everyone liked my story and it just makes me want to write more for you all and to do even better next time. I try to answer anyone that writes to me if I am able and I love hearing from everyone.

I usually post my stories on three locations, – media miner – Y! Gallery

I'll soon be posting another story called "Demon's Diary" which will only be posted on and media miner as it has no yaoi content. I'm in the process now of putting a few last minute tweaks on it. It's basically about what happens when Inuyasha finds Sesshoumaru's diary and gets a chance to know his brother and see him in a new light. I hope you all like it. 
