Chapter six:

"I remember you clearly rejected me the first time I asked you." Byakuya exclaimed as he set eyes on the beautiful hanyo for a second time in his life. Inuyasha just crossed his arms lightly and looked to his side trying to avoid Byakuya's preying eyes. "Hm, Still so apprehensive.," He sneered. The image of Inuyasha screaming in pain flashed again in his mind.

"I was a child when you asked me." Inuyasha looked disgusted. His father had summoned him to the main court yard to meet all the suitors who came in search of his hand in mate ship. But meeting this Byakuya character somehow made is youki uneasy.

"But you still have no desire no be with me. That alone makes you irresistible, despite your delicious appearance." Inuyasha was unbelievably confused at Byakuya's logic. How could just that one factor make him so 'irresistible'? What was confusing him even further was the demon's strong scent. His disgustingly sweet smell overpowered his sensitive nose.

"An unworthy fool such as yourself, has no right to be demanding such things from Inuyasha, this Sesshomaru's future mate." Sesshomaru responded venomously. Inuyasha instantly blushed a deep rose. This Sesshomaru's future mate? And since when was Sesshomaru here?

Byakuya smirked at Sesshomaru's quick actions to try and discourage him. "What makes you so confident? Once I kill you, you won't be able to stop me from claiming him."

"I can choose my own damn mate when I'm ready!" Inuyasha's blush was even more prominent as he crossed his arms; his face in a small pout. Sesshomaru merely glared at Byakuya and made his way towards Inuyasha. His hand grazed his cheek and moved a single strand of hair away from Inuyasha's face before giving him a light peck on the cheek. Inuyasha looked up at Sesshomaru, he opened his mouth to 'give Sesshomaru a piece of his mind' but was abruptly interrupted.

"Do not even fathom the idea he will ever be yours. Inuyasha is mine. A traitorous toad such as yourself isn't good enough for him." In his mind Inuyasha was the definition of perfect. His fiery temper, his naïve and simple ways, all bundled up in a beautiful package. He resisted the urge to fight and continued to glare at Byakuya; telling him to back off. Inuyasha was stunned at Sesshomaru's words. Never in any lifetime, had he ever thought he would be desired so fiercely by such a youkai like Sesshomaru. Byakuya just sneered in return and let out a light scoff.

"Hm. I'll be back."

After the incident with Byakuya, Sesshomaru followed Inuyasha around like a shadow. Every move he made was mirrored by Sesshomaru. When demon's and demonesse's gave Inuyasha a mere glace they were greeted with a glare that could make an ice demon shiver. Inu no Taisho sat on a tatama mat with a scroll in hand watching from the corner of his eye. He laughed at how Inuyasha tried to carry on his normal activities with Sesshomaru as a shadow. He would now and then glance back at Sesshomaru and was always greeted with an unchanging glace as if it were completely normal that he be followed. Inu Taisho wasn't really reading through his treaty but merely watching the little scene, He had never seen Sesshomaru in such a way, before he was starting to believe his son didn't even have sexual prowess at all. He could tell Sesshomaru's infatuation with him was more than just the fact that Inuyasha was in heat.

The great dog general sensed the presence of someone behind and his suspicions were right. Izayoi sat gracefully beside him and turned her head to slightly face his, "Enjoying watching your son?" Enjoying watching your sons

He sat there not wanting to look t her, knowing it would cause himself pain. "I think he has grown a lot thanks to Inuyasha. Your son is a very interesting character." He is your son too…

Inuyasha now sat with a small tray of food in front of him. Sesshomaru sat right behind him. He ate slowly, which seemed weird to him because he usually ate in a hurry. His mind was wondering, it was almost surreal the way he was being treated by everyone. He glanced around the room to try and distract himself but he could not help it, he needed to ask questions.

"Sesshomaru?"

"If you tell me to stop following you, I won't," Sesshomaru's voice was anything but harsh, it was soft and low and carried the expression of genuine concern.

He paused at first before continuing. "I uh was wondering…about your dreams."

"Okay."

"Have I…ever told you I loved you?"

"Yes," he stated firmly, still keeping eyes focused at the back of his head. Inuyasha was so puzzled, he couldn't figure out how they could share such a strong emotion but no remember any of it. Sesshomaru was about to stop there, but his curiosity got the better of him. "Why?"

"Well… the other day I got a flash of memory's and in them I told you that I loved you."

Sesshomaru glanced at Inuyasha his expression was now more content. "All the memories will come back soon" He was sure they would.

Inuyasha was now blushing. "Have we ever…" Inuyasha seemed to want to tiptoe around the matter. He smiled inwardly at the hanyo's innocent nature.

"No."

Inuyasha just nodded and covered his flushed face with hair as he stared down at his food. Sesshomaru swept Inuyasha's hair to one side and exposed the back of his neck. He leaned forwards and placed a light kiss before leaning his forehead against his back. His hands stroked Inuyasha's hair and he gently placed his clawed hands on his hips before bringing his closer. He breathed in deeply. The sent of his 'mate-to-be' in heat was greatly hindering all coherent thoughts he had.

What few shreds of thoughts Sesshomaru had left were interrupted by the doors of Naomi's gates bursting open. Inuyasha and Sesshomaru who were sitting on one of the decks looked at who had caused the ruckus.

"Sesshomaru let's fight. Who ever wins gets freelance rights over the hanyo." Byakuya's deep voice filled Naomi's court room as he scanned the little scene of Inuyasha and Sesshomaru sitting so closely.

"I'm not property you know!" Inuaysha was sick of demons talking about him as if he were a prize to be attained after a battle. He had will of his own and he would choose who he wanted. Sesshomaru removed his head from Inuyasha's neck and his hands from his hips and rose to his feet. His trademark icy glare was amplified by ten at the persistence of the strange demon.

"I will fight you, just to get rid of your nuisance," By now Sesshomaru knew what Inuyasha liked to hear. Inuyasha was his he knew it, but he liked to make the hanyo think he would have a choice.

Sesshomaru and Byakuya stood at either end of a nearby clearing. Sesshomaru had refused the presence on anyone except Inuyasha. Their fight had started and it almost looked apparent from the start who would win. Byakuya had dodged the lashes of Sesshomaru's light whip as he used flower petals and the wind to his advantage. But Sesshomaru was only getting started. Mokomoko-sama shot out from his side and grabbed the strange demon in it's grasp.

Mokomoko-sama's grasp was suddenly set astray as illusions of Byakuya had appeared around them. They were everywhere and the strong scent of flower petals damaged Sesshomaru's ability to smell which one was the real one. The inuu-youkai was getting sick of Byakuya's games and cowardly techniques. He shot out a thick acid from his hands and threw it in al directions. It hit the right one. Byakuya clutched his arm, which was severely bubbling from the acid.

In a sudden flash an arrow from no where had pierced Sesshomaru's armor and shot straight into his chest. It emitted a glowing light and Sesshomaru slowly looked down at it. Inuyasha could not believe what had happened. One minute Byakuya was about to loose the next Sesshomaru had a strange arrow embedded in his chest. He fell to the ground and clutched the arrow in his chest. His hand was severally burned as his fingers encircled in attempts to remove it.

Byakuya was about to pull the sword that rested on his back but his attempts were foiled as a familiar red light had made it's way towards him. Inuyasha was furious. It was strange to him, but he felt the most unimaginable anger when he saw Byakuya ready to kill Sesshomaru. Inuyasha now pointed his sword threateningly at Byakuya. "You…you bastard!" he breathed heavily. His youki was now taking control of his body. It knew who Sesshomaru was. His clawed hands clenched his sword more tightly and his nails dug into the palms of his hands and dripped blood. He stepped closer towards Sesshomaru as his eyes were glowing a slight gleam of scarlet.

Byakuya almost seemed thrilled at the way the hanyo was rebelling. He smirked. I can't wait to hear you scream under me. He licked his lips lightly and lifted his hand to the sword again. Once again he was foiled. Inuyasha launched his now full youkai body. His claws and fangs had grown to much larger proportions and his cheek now adorned demon marking much unlike his fathers but of the great dog general. Byakuya noted this mentally. It seems you have more secrets than I thought my sweet Inuyasha. Just as Inuyasha rasied a glowed hand to strike byakuya pushed him off jumped back using flowers petals and the wind to carry him away.

Byakuya transformed the small origami bird into a large one and jumped onto it and let the wind carry him away. Inuyasha's eyes widened and his crimson eyes became normal; demon markings disappearing. It was so similar in the way Kagura had exited with her feather. He glared at the sky where Byakuya exited and gazed at the disappearing figure. Naraku what are you up to? His attention was now directed towards Sesshomaru and he kneeled down to the ground bringing him to his chest and gazed down at his beautiful face. He looked at the glowing arrow that was imbedded in his chest. His gorgeous silky Kimono was now smeared with the crimson liquid. He quickly worked to pull out the arrow and threw in to his side. He brought Sesshomaru's arm around his shoulder and lifted him up and made his way to his father's estate.

Inuyasha lay beside Sesshomaru, and watched as he slept. The fight had rendered Sesshomaru weak, and it was because of him. He frowned as he saw Sesshomaru wince slightly in his sleep. He was still wondering where that arrow had come from and who is came from. His face now rested on the larger youkai's chest just above where the arrow had pierced him and he slightly nuzzled it with his cheek. Inuyasha was perplexed at his own emotion but pushed the thoughts away when he heard Sesshomaru's voice.

"Inuyasha…" Sesshomaru murmured lightly. He was surprised to see the hanyo laying there beside him with his arms around him. Inuyasha instantly looked up, a relieved expression on his face. Sesshomaru knew nothing of what Inuyasha had done and what his youki knew. It recognized him as his true mate.

"I was worried. It was all my fault that you fought with Byakuya, I should have known he was playing dirty." Inuyasha glared at the thoguth of Byakuya, and he felt his youki growl at the smell of Sesshomaru's blood.

"I wasn't going to loose you to that cretin." I'm not going to loose you to anyone.

"That's why it's my fault! Stupid heat."

"I told you the reason I feel for you is not because of your heat. "

"I know, but others, they only like me because of that. That's why I like you the most…" Inuyasha confessed. He liked Sesshomaru; a lot in fact. He now didn't look at Sesshomaru afraid of what he would say. Sesshomaru smiled at that. He cares so much about what I think of him. "I feel like I'm no longer lost when I'm with you. It's just that I don't think I deserve you."

"You're a fool." The hanyo let out a gasp; he was slightly hurt by Sesshomaru's harsh tone. But his thoughts of self pity were soon interrupted by Sesshomaru's voice. It was now soft and tender. "Don't be a fool thinking you are not worthy. I'm the one who does not deserve you, yet I am lucky enough to have your affection."

Inuyasha's mind was stumbling for a reply. He had to be dreaming. How was something so wonderful happening to him? It was like all the things he had suffered were just a pathway to his savior. He had gone thinking his entire like he was never worthy of anything; that he would amount to nothing, and all his accomplishments were just overshadowed by the fact he has a Half-Breed. Was Sesshomaru real? This great inu-youkai had endured such pain for him; a worthless half-breed.

"Let me kiss you," Sesshomaru's voice was loving and seductive. As was his look. It was telling Inuyasha he was both treasured and desired. He wanted to take all the hanyo's pain away. With Inuyasha he didn't care about his pride anymore. He leaned closer to Inuyasha fully ready to show the hanyo what he was worth; his whole world.

Inuyasha gave his a nervous glace before he leaned in closer as his lips were slightly quivering. He licked them in anticipation as he felt the powerful Daiyoikai's hot breath over him. He felt Sesshomaru plant a feather like kiss on his own lips. He pulled away slightly before leaning in again; giving him a firmer one. Inuyasha eagerly complied this time. He slightly opened his mouth and slipped his tongue gently into his partner. It ran slowly along his tongue before he quickly recoiled it like a serpent. Sesshomaru let out a growl of pleasure as Inuyasha continued his little routine. Inuyasha tilted his head to one side so Sesshomaru could dig his own tongue into him with more ease.

Inuyasha now found himself under the larger demon , being pawed away at. His hands were clinging desperately over Sesshomaru's shoulders. The daiyoukai elbows were on either side of his face as he continued to dip his head and plunge into the hanyo. His legs loosely hooked themselves around Sesshomaru's waist, bringing it down considerably.

Sesshomaru's physical pain was willed back as he was drowned in desire. He leaned all his weight on one elbow his other hand now caressing the hanyo's small waist and leg. Inuyasha let out a startled yelp as he felt Sesshomaru's clawed hand caressing his butt. He brought the Hanyo's small frame towards him by grasping his lower back-side tightly. Inuyasha ran his hand across Sesshomaru's back and played with his hair; twirling it with his fingers. He cried softly as he felt Sesshomaru's lips move down to his neck. He bit softly around his jaw line he nipped harder and enjoyed the sound of Inuyasha's gasping his name.

Inuyasha's inner youki had won over his conscious mind and instinct took over. It needed Sesshomaru. Their bodies twisted and coiled and the rhythm of their heart beats grew to a fast pace. Sesshomaru licked the sweat now tracing the hanyou's body as his hand gracefully moved from Inuyasha's bottom to the hem of his yukata. He grazed his hand over it to gently push the thin material away revealing a pallet of tan skin. What was supposed to just be a kiss became something much more. Their bodies melted together; fire successfully melting ice.

Sorry if I successfully blew the tire on our little fun-wagon folks. :tears:
