The After Math

-o-0-o-

The party was a huge success as always but as the saying goes, 'All good things must come to an end.' I looked at my wife and then to Kagome who I had just saved from my brothers' idiotic advances. My mind went in a hundred different directions at once and perhaps it was mostly the alcohol, but I couldn't focus on any one thing. Instead, I chose to focus the crowd of people leaving the premises. Soon enough we were the last 3 people and we all looked to each other, the question "What now?" seeming to float in the air without a word being spoken. I could sense that it was building tension.

"Kagome, would you like to sleep over?" Kagura asked as she looked me in the eyes. It was as if those blood, red pools were drawing me in because I came to her side. "We will talk about everything in the morning." Kagura assured her. Kagome agreed and I was a little relieved. I actually didn't want her to leave yet but I would never admit that out loud.

My thoughts were cut off when I noticed a sudden flash that was gone as quickly as it appeared. I peered out down the dark driveway that was unlit because the automatic timer shuts them off at 2am every night. I sniffed the air. Was I being paranoid? Was I just intoxicated? Tired? All of the above?

"Are you ok?" Kagome asked as she put a hand on my shoulder. Her voice and her touch instantly snapped me out of my thoughts.

"Yes, I'm fine." I said, looking into those chocolate eyes. I saw another flash again in in the blink of an eye and then it was gone. but concluded that I would call the electrician tomorrow to have a look at the light posts and other electrical equipment out there. As for now, I have two women in my bed tonight and I couldn't keep them waiting.

I was awoken by a gentle pulse at my left ear where a small magnetic ear bud sat in the most rounded part in the shell of my ear. It was just a prototype from my company, but it had a useful alarm feature that woke you up gently instead of startling you out of your sleep. I felt the pulse again and I could hear a voice from the device echo in my ear as if the person was standing right there.

"Good Morning, Mr. Shotai." It was Rin, the head maid. She was the grand daughter of a woman I had saved from being devoured by wolves many years ago. She was a young girl at the time and she followed me around everywhere. I raised her as my own and I watched her have children, grow old and pass on. I watched her children do the same. Years later, her grand child had inherited the family business that Rin started, as well as her first name, and she herself was nearly half a century old with children and grandchildren of her own now. With my help, Rin had started this business that would forever feed her family. If I had not taken pity upon a half dead human girl, the generations that I've come to witness would not be here.

It's miraculous because it was the first instance where I had grown any sort of interest at all in any human. Back then I considered them weak and as useless as animals. I did not quite understand my actions then. I looked at Kagome's sleeping form and did not fully understand it even now. Perhaps I inherited a small inkling of my father in this regard. "Good Morning, Rin." I said quietly.

"This is your wake-up call at 9am as requested. Breakfast in the garden will be ready in 1 hour." She said. "Would you like me to give you a report on the weather? Read your vitals? Fill the house with a particular scent?" Not only was my new device connected to my phone by Bluetooth, I also had it connected to the head maids' tablet where she could see my vitals and sleep patterns. I'm healthy 99% of the time but because I now run a major company with a global impact, I needed to take extra precautions.

If anything ever happened to me, my head maid would have health history and vital information to give to the doctor should it ever come to that. That's how she knew to call me. My alarm clock woke me and once awake she is to call me to ensure I'm awake and that I get up. I do this only when I request her to and today I made sure I put in a wake up call request as I knew it was a possibility I may wake up a bit hungover.

"No weather, no scent but tell me my blood alcohol levels." I instructed her.

"Your blood alcohol level last night when you went to bed was at 0.10. This morning it sits at 0.03." She said, reading the charts. It made sense because I didn't necessarily feel hungover, but I still didn't feel 100% sober. I felt well enough to take on the day.

"Thank you, Rin. On another note, set the breakfast table for 3 people. You may carry on." I told her, before double tapping the device to ensure it was off. I removed it from my ear and slipped it back into the magnetic compartment at the back of my phone. Placing my phone back on its charge pad, I lay back on my pillow and looked at the two cuddling women beside me. There was much to be said and done today.

I made it to the table first. The sun was shining, and a few lazy clouds floated by. I sat and watched the gardeners work in the distance. In a few months, the vibrant, green of nature will turn gold and red as if burning alive on the trees itself before falling to the ground. The table was set with Kagura's favourite gold and marble china and I could smell the food wafting from the kitchens open back door. I closed my eyes deep in thought for a moment and reflected on life over the course of the past three months. Things have changed far more than I could have imagined. The air carried in spiked with two familiar scents. One more powerful than the other. Goosebumps raised on my skin as I inhaled a breath of that delicious smell that was so good, I could nearly taste it.

I opened my eyes and saw both women approaching the table. I couldn't help but notice that they were walking hand in hand, fingers interlacing each other. This was still new to me, all things considered. Kagome stopped abruptly as a bright blue butterfly caught her eye and landed on the pink flower bush beside her. She walked closer, taking Kagura a few steps with her. Reaching her hand out she carefully picked the flower and stared at the butterfly for a few seconds before it flew away.

She turned and presented the flower to Kagura with a big smile. Kagura returned the gesture with an affectionate smile of her own even though this was her garden and her flower. Interesting. It wasn't the flower that made her smile. It was the thought and the action behind it. I haven't really thought about things that way before. I found myself giving something mostly when I wanted something instead of giving something just to show I cared. I do care, I just thought I'd kill two birds with one stone. Perhaps I could learn something here if I could make myself more open to it. More open to them.

They arrived at the table and Kagura dropped Kagome's hand to come to my side. She kissed my cheek as she placed the flower in my hair behind my ear and then took a seat at the table. Kagome stared straight at me for a moment before taking the last seat. "The pop of colour really brings out his eyes doesn't it, Kagome?" Kagura asked, as she ran her fingers through my hair. The other woman's cheeks were suddenly tinted pink as the flower in my hair. She opened and closed her mouth but failed to say anything. Kagura smiled that devilish smile that could only mean she was up to no good. She was a natural born troublemaker when she was ready, but I had to admit that it added to her charm. "Oh, come on Kagome, at this point there's no need to be shy when just last night he was buried deep in your guts." Kagura said almost nonchalantly but she had that mischievous twinkle in her eye. My jaw almost dropped, and I shook me head. I often forget how bold my wife could be.

"Kagura!" Kagome gasped and bit her bottom lip. She looked to me and then back to my wife. She was saved from further embarrassment when the maids arrived with the food on a silver and gold cart. They started to arrange the food in the middle of the round table before us. There was a variety of exotic fruit, fresh baked croissants and egg white omelettes made with spinach and fetta cheese to start.

"Kagura… Sesshomaru…" Kagome said, with her eyes trained on her empty plate. She waited for a moment while the last maid left the table and walked back to the mansion. I heard Kagome release a shaky breath. "I… I'm sorry about everything. Getting between the two of you behind each others' backs. It wasn't my intention but… things just… I don't know how to explain it!" She said in frustration. She was having a hard time looking either of us in the eye. "I know I messed up and I understand if neither of you want anything to do with me for deceiv-"

"Shhh!" Kagura cut her off abruptly. "If I'm going to be honest," She started as she looked me in the eye. "We all deceived each other. You just happened to get caught in the middle of it." She took a sip of her tea. "I have to admit I was upset when I tasted him on your lips when I picked you up from work and then when I later caught you two fucking. I watched you both go up the stairs. You thought I wasn't looking but I was. I was enraged, but how could I have any right when I deprived my husband for months and slept with you behind his back?" I took a bite of pineapple before I spoke up.

"That is a valid point Kagura, but why did you deem it necessary to play this game of deprivation with me? To what end?" I asked. I suppose this time at the breakfast table was our chance to lay everything out in the open. No more games. We were going to talk about it. About everything. Kagura glared at me for an instant but then her expression softened.

"Sessho, we've had a long relationship filled with love and passion, but it also had a lot of power struggle between you and I. Most times you'd win, and I'd comply." The wind danced with the loose strands of hair left out of the bun on top of her head. "You always seem to think that things must go your way. Your entire life has been based on acquiring power and now that you have it, I find that you let it get to your head. At times you even abuse that power without seeming to realize or care." I listened intently and watched as she cut her omelette with her fork while Kagome took a long sip of her orange juice. She seemed awkward in the tense moment. "I wanted to show you what it felt like to not have a say. I wanted you to see what it was like to be a little powerless. To learn more compassion."

"Instead, you drove me sexually insane." I said, as I glanced at Kagome who silently watched our conversation. Kagura glared at me but I wasn't finished. "Don't worry I'm not blaming you for my actions. Maybe I deserved it for being an asshole all the time." Kagome scoffed in what seemed to be amusement and agreement. I raised an eyebrow at her, and she cleared her throat and continued eating. "I do see where you're coming from mate, and maybe I could work on that."

"Not just at home with me love, but in general. Times are different than how they used to be." My wife said. I searched her eyes. I could tell this was an issue that had been lingering with her and I was too selfish to really hear her before.

"I could live with that." I told her as I reached for her hand. I didn't quite know how to express myself beyond that but all that mattered was that we now had an understanding. She squeezed my hand and smiled.

"Good. I'm glad." She said with a twinkle in her eye. There was that look again. What was she thinking up now? "I must admit though, if it wasn't for Kagome perhaps, I would have caved a long time ago. She kept me satisfied long enough to truly torture you. "Oh, speaking of which!" She said now, fully turning towards the other woman. "So, where does this leave you Kagome? How do you feel about my husband? From my understanding you were strictly lesbian, but it seemed to me like you were having a lovely time last night."

"Kagura…" I interjected. She patted my forearm.

"No, I think its only fair that if you and I are going to be open and honest, then Kagome here should do the same." Her eyes never left Kagome's.

"I… well…" Kagome started. "That's the thing I'm most confused about. I'm very much attracted to women and I'm not at all attracted to other men." Her face was cute when she wrinkled her nose at the thought of other men. Then she looked up at me. "It's just that… Sesshomaru seems to be the exception." I'd be lying if I said that didn't boost my ego. "Kagura, I wasn't expecting to feel the way that I do for you but I'm even more at a loss for words as to why I felt this connection with your husband."

"He's very pretty isn't he?" Kagura asked her as she played with my hair again. I glared at her. I hated when she called me that. Kagome nodded in silence, her gaze never wavering. "So, where does this leave the three of us? This is quite the triangle if I've ever seen one." She was right. Hundreds of years ago it was normal for demons to take multiple mates, but it isn't quite as normal now. What was the term humans use? Polyamory? A term I haven't really thought to explore in the past as it was not a priority.

"What do you want Kagura?" I asked her. She looked from me to Kagome.

"I want you Sesshomaru. You're my husband but I've developed something special with Kagome." She reached for both my hand and Kagome's at the same time. "What about you mate? What do you want?" She asked and I squeezed her hand and placed a kiss on it as I stared at Kagome, studying her face.

"I'm interested in exploring new possibilities." I said. "There was definitely an undeniable… connection last night." My pulse picked up speed as Kagome's breath quickened.

My wife grazed her thumb over my fingers. "It's settled then! The three of us are a thing. If that's ok with you Kagome." She said. Kagome's eyes were glazed over as she seemed to be lost in thought. Kagura and I both smelled it at the same time. That delicious sweet scent that covered us last night. The scent that drives me crazy at work. Kagura released our hands and lifted the white tablecloth and ducked beneath the table. I furrowed my brow. What is she up to now? I watched as Kagome jumped in her seat and slumped over slightly. She gasped. Then understanding dawned when a moan escaped from Kagome's lips. Oh, wait really? I peaked under the tablecloth and saw that Kagura's head was under Kagome's dress. I dropped the tablecloth as I began to feel the blood rush to a particular southern region. I looked Kagome straight in the eye and watched as she enjoyed the pleasure. Her smouldering brown eyes were heavy and her usually pale cheeks were flushed. I looked under the tablecloth again and saw Kagura's hand reaching back in search of me. I grabbed her hand placed it where I knew she wanted to.

She released her lips from Kagome's flesh and replaced them with her fingers as she turned towards me and pulled me out of my pants with her other hand. I watched as it sprung out and hit her in the face. She let out a shaky breath before sliding it into her warm mouth. I threw my head back and tried to stifle a groan and failed. The last couple of days has been the most action I've received in a while and it made the sensation even more delicious each and every time. Kagura skillfully worked her hands and lips between Kagome and I. Switching from one to the other, devouring us both when there was a full feast ready to be eaten just above her head.

The next thing I knew, the maids were approaching with their cart. I straightened up but I could still feel the jolt of pleasure as Kagura worked hands over me. Kagome's eyes were closed so she didn't see them. I grabbed my fork and tapped it against my glass of water to get her attention. Her eyes snapped open and I nodded in the direction of the maids. She straightened up to but was having a more difficult time hiding the sensations coursing through her. The maids finally arrived at our table and looked between the two of us.

"Where is Lady Kagura?" The younger one with the long blonde hair asked. "She requested mimosas and cigars. Would you care for any?" She gestured towards the cart where there were 3 glasses of bubbling mimosas garnished with a slice of orange and beside that, 3 cigars in a polished wooden box placed on the black velvet display inside.

"She…" Kagome started, but she let out a sigh instead of finishing her sentence.

"She went inside… to the bathroom." I said through my teeth. "Leave the cart and go!" I said a little more harshly than intended as I was inching closer and closer to my climax. The maids looked at each other, then they bowed and started making their way back out of the garden. Between one moment and the next Kagome screamed and moaned as she was brought to orgasm. The maids jumped and looked back to our table in horror. Soon after, I joined Kagome as I exploded uncontrollably nearly convulsing in my chair. The maids screamed and ran towards us in a panic.

"Lord Sesshomaru! Lord Sesshomaru, Lady Kagome are you ok?" One of them tripped as they ran.

"Stay back!" I yelled before they could reach. They stopped dead in their tracks. "It's nothing, forget what you saw and leave!" I panted and glared at them as they semi ruined the after affect of the orgasm.

"B-but…" The tall brunette stammered as she looked between Kagome and I in confusion. We were both panting but clearly ok.

"Are you questioning orders?" I asked. Her eyes widened and she straightened before bowing.

"My apologies, sir. We will go now!" She stood and turned heading back towards the mansion, her co-worker joining in her retreat. Kagura emerged from under the table. Her bun had fallen, and she was utterly dishevelled but her eyes were glazed over with that mischievous look again. Her mission accomplished. She fixed her dress and released the rest of her hair from its confines. "I could definitely get used to this." She said as she licked our excretions from each hand before she reached over the table towards the forgotten food and plucked a grape from the fruit bowl. Her eyes looked up towards the silver and gold cart before the table. "Oh, the mimosas are here!" Kagome and I stared at each other still at a loss for words.
