A Gift for You

Inuyasha was all nerves, he was in fact so nervous that the girls doting on him had to scold him yet again.

"Inuyasha!" Kagome's voice grated on his ears at such a close range and he winced. "If you move one more time I will hit you."

Ayame laughed at the human girl she had grown to like and sighed. "Oh Inuyasha, I have waited for this day for so long! I cannot believe I have such an amazing honor as this."

Inuyasha reached out to pat her hand. "Ayame, you know you are my life's savior, without you my hair would be falling out, speaking of, don't you think you have brushed it enough?"

She blushed. "Ah, I am sorry! It is just, it is finally your mating day, to Lord Sesshomaru at that! You must look your absolute best!"

Inuyasha sighed, he supposed he had relinquished all complaining rights when the girls barged in with a determined look on their face. He had refused make up. He was a boy dammit, even if he could produce children and was mating another male. He had not been able to convince them to not smother his lips with a sticky colored substance that made them shine and look pinker. He had refused the blush because he needed nothing to make him pinker.

The mere thought that he would soon be binding himself to Sesshomaru after so long was nerve wracking and blush inducing all on its own. He had not seen his mate to be all day, like himself, Sesshomaru had been courted off by his male friends.

The door slid open and a lot of little legs came running into the spacious room. Inuyasha glanced up to Kagome's annoyance and smiled in relief. "Taiga thank the Gods. Rescue me."

Taiga laughed and closed the door behind him. He had in fact, reunited with the him by accident, but they had become inseparable friends. Sesshomaru and Lucien took some getting use to it, but when the two had had one too many cups of Sake one night, they found that they had a lot in common. They might even be called friends.

The little heads peered around his shoulders and Taiga laughed again. "I do believe since I was stuck with child duty, that my help has run out."

Keeran, who had been no use at all, sat in the corner eating grapes in his lazy manner. "Hey little feets, come over here to uncle."

Sango laughed as she entwined a final flower in Inuyasha's hair. "I wouldn't have done that if I were you."

Sango's little girls, a bit older than the twins, ran to him first. Takuya and Akinori eagerly hopped from Taiga's back and followed suit, followed by Taiga's son. Now uncle Keeran was dealing with ten grabby hands, but the laughter said he was use to it and loved getting piled on by little bodies.

Taiga came to rest by Inuyasha's feet. "Ah, you are almost done, pretty as always."

Rin was finally done with the sash which was now a perfect bow and smiled happily. "Inu-mommy is the prettiest."

Inuyasha grunted and his cheeks were again a hue of red and everyone laughed.

The door again slid open and Shippo pounced in on all fours. "Inuyasha, are you done yet? I think Sesshomaru will come and hunt you down you don't come out soon!

Sango laughed. "He is almost done, tell Sesshomaru that threats are not needed."

The girls rose and stepped back to admire their work. Inuyasha truly was a pretty males, especially with his golden eyes peering apprehensively at them all. They smiled and pointed him to the body length mirror.

He rose and looked, quite pleased with what he saw. The girl's had done what they promised and turned him into a mate worth panting over. He never took the time to realize it, but his shape was oddly on the feminine side, not that it did anything but accent his looks. His hair was shimmering, not just from the tiny glass beads trailing through it, but simply because the strands had been pampered to the fullest. He actually liked the lip color as well, not that it would last long.

His favorite part of his attire was the blue ceremonial robes that were so light that it was almost white. The robes hung seductively off his slender shoulders and dipped to reveal the patterned under cloth of white and pale gray. His brows, against his will, were made to appear darker and his lashes as well. He had to admit overall, he enjoyed looking at himself.

"Jeez, he is going to ravish me."

Keeran whooped from the corner, and the children, ever incorrigible, did the same. He laughed at this joyous moment shared with some of his closest friends. It was finally time to depart and everyone parted with encouraging words.

Only Keeran lingered, the twins as well because no matter how much he tried to convince them to stay with the other children, they were determined to stay with him. Inuyasha glanced curiously at him and he smiled back.

"Did I tell you what I did to Neesh a few weeks back?"

Inuyasha turned up his nose. "I do not want to know Keeran, I really don't."

"Oh but you do," Keeran said with a broad smile, "It will make your mate a very... pleased man tonight."

Inuyasha knew he shouldn't, but he stayed and listened and by the end he was very, very red.

Sesshomaru was about to rake his hands through his hair in impatience but a nudge from Neesh stopped him. His hair had been swept back and pinned in some fancy style, laced with frilly flowers. Flowers were traditional so he did not complain, but he drew the line at the annoying hands messing with his hair far too much. He did not care how fancy he looked, he just wanted to make Inuyasha his forever. If he would ever come out.

Finally there was a hushed murmuring and Sesshomaru glanced back even though he was not supposed to. His eyes locked on the beauty that was to be his mate and he could not look away. Inuyasha met his eyes and smiled meekly, a look that fit his features all too well. It took every fiber in his being to stay in his place and not say screw the ceremony, toss Inuyasha into his arms, and mark him his preferred way.

Inuyasha finally knelled next to him, his robes pooling around him, almost the same pure white as his own but it had a blue tint that highlighted his very shiny hair. Aki and Taku plopped themselves in his lap and beamed at their father who gave them a wink.

"You are the a bane to my sanity, do you know that Inuyasha. If you were not meant to be mine I would have to find this maker of fate and change his mind."

Inuyasha smile was lovely as always and he tilted his head. "If that is your way of saying you love me, then I will take it, but save your sweet words for the right moment silly."

Sesshomaru snapped his fingers at the demon who was an official for mating ceremonies and the demon cleared his throat to get the crowd to hush. He spoke something about honor and that now they would be one instead of two. He asked Sesshomaru did he concede to the match and the impatient man gave him his approval before he could finish the official words. Inuyasha waited for him to finish and gave his yes as well. When the time finally came for them to mark each other, Inuyasha smiled timidly and tossed his mass of hair to the side, exposing the left side of creamy neck.

Sesshomaru reciprocated the act but exposed the right side of his neck. When they were allowed to bite, Inuyasha winced slightly at the burn. The mark he had previously been given had been torn when he had been kidnapped, which broke the flimsy claim Sesshomaru had on him. He did not even remember the mark until now. Sesshomaru's teeth sunk in deep and he could feel the mark forming like magic because it was a slight heat which accompanied it. When his teeth bit into Sesshomaru's flesh, he had to gasp in wonder. It was as if he was suddenly one with him. He could feel his heart beat, he could feel his every emotion, nervousness tiding way to unbound joy. He could feel a love that was almost crippling.

He didn't mean to, had told himself that he would not because it was a silly thing to do, but tears sprung to his eyes.

Sesshomaru groaned and his thumb gently wiped away the drops. "Do not do that Inuyasha."

Inuyasha sniffled slightly. "I'm sorry, I can just feel you, all of you and you really do love me."

Sesshomaru pulled him forward, careful of the twins, and conquered his mouth, setting out to show him just how much he loved him. Akinori was glancing up at his parents and shrugged, giving his little brother a lick to the cheek. Takuya's tail wagged happily and his cheeks turned pink as he handed his brother a flower from his hair.

Inuyasha drew away from his mate or else the ceremony would never get done. Each of them grabbed a twin and placed them in front of them. The round little official sprinkled something over them and deemed them the official heirs of the now mated pair.

There was a cheer from the crowd as white petals rained over them and Sesshomaru again took him into his embraced and kissed him senseless.

– – – – – –

It was customary that the mated couple leave early so that they could fully consummate their mating, but they had so many guess that it had taken quite awhile to thank them all. It was not until now, seated on the opposite side of one of the many blazing fires did Inuyasha noticed the heat pooling in Sesshomaru's eyes as he stared at him intensely. That look promised so many things.

He had just returned from a special little preparation because curse him, he had been infinitely interested in what Keeran had told him to do. He now glanced back at Sesshomaru and nibbled his lower lip, a clear enough answer to the question in his mates eyes.

Gracefully Sesshomaru rose to his feet and stalked around his friends to stand in front of him and held out his hand. Inuyasha slid his hand into his mate's and was effortlessly pulled to his feet.

Keeran snickered and Inuyasha kicked him. "See you in the morning Inuyasha."

"Do not count on it," Sesshomaru said as an answer.

Sesshomaru thought they were going to their room but Inuyasha had made other plans. He had lead Sesshomaru to the dungeon, with much difficulty because the man would not keep his hands to himself. By the time they reached his destination, Inuyasha's robes had been scattered in a trail of cloth and his lips were swollen from inflamed kisses. Sesshomaru's wardrobe was no better, for Inuyasha had actually ripped into them.

Sesshomaru seemed to just notice their surroundings and arched a fine brow at Inuyasha. Their was a pallet for them piled with fur and pillows for their comfort but he wondered why here of all places. He did not really care, he had just wanted Inuyasha naked and beneath him for they had not made love in a very long time. Inuyasha had made him wait to have him and he had waited far too long. Not long enough it seemed.

Inuyasha stopped him from ripping off the second layer of those dammed ceremonial robes. He was huffing and his skin was hot to the touch but till he pushed Sesshomaru away and against the wall.

Sesshomaru stayed, wondering what game Inuyasha wished to play. His naughty mate felt for the chains that would bound his arms and he allowed himself to be bound. His hands were now pinned to the wall and while he could easily break the chains, he was far more interested in where this was leading.

Inuyasha stepped away from him, pulled his hair from the pins and rid himself of all excess flowers and beads. His hair trailed silkily down his back and Sesshomaru ached to touch it. Inuyasha licked his lips in a slow manner which made his loins tingle with excitement. The little tease was rid himself of his clothes... very slowly. His pupils dilated with lust when his lovely chest was exposed, he growled when he took his sweet time with the sash and he groaned in pleasure agony when he turned around to completely drop the robe, revealing his perfect globe.

His fingers trailed from his mouth to to his navel where he lightly stroked himself back and forward. Inuyasha seemed to like the feel of his own hands and Sesshomaru's nose was assaulted with the waves of lust radiating from Inuyasha. He was panting, he just realized and he seriously thought to break the chains but Inuyasha shook his head, a promise that he would miss out if he lost his patience.

He calmed himself and was rewarded doubly. Inuyasha came to sit in his lap, naughtily circling his hips around a very strained area of Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru's eyes burned holes in him and he ached for his touch but still Inuyasha soldiered on. His mouth nipped his mate's ear, his tongue trailed along his pulse line and he could feel all that Sesshomaru felt. He could sense what pleased him the most and when something made Sesshomaru feel good, it made him feel the same.

He didn't know who was more worked up by the time Inuyasha had licked him everywhere above the waist, all he knew was that he was dripping his excitement and it was trailing down his thighs. Sesshomaru could smell him, he knew he could because he felt the almost animal like urge coursing through his mate. His hand found the aching part of his mate and his claws ripped away the rest of the cloth in his way. Determined to have Sesshomaru on the edge as much as he, he dipped his head and boldly licked the entire length of him.

The shudder he received fueled his boldness and he swirled his tongue around the leaking tip, tasting the odd flavor for the first time. He did not dislike it. His mouth tentatively engulfed the tip of Sesshomaru and he felt the tension his his mate's muscles. He glanced up, wondering if Sesshomaru disliked it, but the look of pure want and need in his eyes. Inuyasha knew his games were over the moment he heard the chains break, but he did not care.

He gasped as his mouth was nearly consumed in the searing kiss and Sesshomaru's hands wasted no time finding his member to tease it mercilessly. Sesshomaru had to do no teasing for he could tell Inuyasha was ready the moment his hand met the impossible slick wetness creeping down Inuyasha's thighs. He did not know why, but that was his breaking factor.

His fingers were pressing in and his mouth was abusing Inuyasha's perked nipples with a vengeance. His mouth was giving payback to Inuyasha's body and his mate squirmed with his own need. The sounds he was eliciting gave him added fury and soon his head was pressing into a warmth he had been bereft of for far too long. He was gentle for Inuyasha had not been entered in a long time. The moment that ring of muscle gave way, they both gasped and Inuyasha shattered immediately. The moment his mate was constricting violently around him, he lost all semblance of control and shattered himself. Inuyasha was still riding his own wave and he placed and mouth to the mating mark, still fresh, and showed him exactly what kind of added benefit mating had.

Inuyasha shook and shuttered and came undone again, screaming at the pleasure which was now so intense he though he might loss his mind. Sesshomaru could feel everything his mate could and he closed his eyes to brace himself for his own wave of intense ecstasy.

Both now panted heavily and Sesshomaru rolled them over so that Inuyasha could rest against his racing chest. All was silent for a while before Sesshomaru's hand gently messaged through Inuyasha's hair. "I love you, you teasing minx, never doubt that."

Inuyasha sat up, their bodies still joined and placed a sweet kiss to his lips. "And I love you, no matter how psychotic you might be."

Sesshomaru smiled up lovingly at him and thrust slightly, loving the gasped that escaped Inuyasha's lips and the twitching around him.

"Horny bastard!"

Sesshomaru chuckled, "that I am... perhaps we might try your other-"

Inuyasha bit him on the shoulder and he winced. "No, the twins are enough for the moment! Perhaps when Shippo and Rin are old enough to take care of themselves and the twins do not need constant attention, I will think about it."

Sesshomaru began a slow paced thrusting, his immediate urge now gone. "Fine, I will wait, but not too long Inuyasha. This time when you are pregnant I will pamper you like you deserve."

Inuyasha smiled and kissed his mate, eagerly rolling his hips back to meet the slow pace Sesshomaru had set and finally in the happiest place in his life. He was positive that there was nothing but joy left in the future.
