Chapter Seven
While Takara slept sound that night, Sesshomaru awoke when he felt the presence of another demon in the room. When he awoke, he found Takara still on top of him, his cock still buried within her. A warm feeling he felt nice to wake up to, but then he gently pulled her off of him & covered her with the sheets as he got out of his bed & pulled on his night pants. When he was about to turn on the light, the presence left the room to stay in the hall & he followed it. He wasn't all too surprised to see Naraku in the hall, staring at him. "Why are you here?" he questioned, taking a step to the supposed demon.
Naraku started walking down the hall, motioning for Sesshomaru to follow. When Sesshomaru was at his side, he turned to the demon Lord. "What a nice mate you have in there," Naraku spoke, breaking the silence between them. "How long have you had her?"
"She's been here for a little over a week." Sesshomaru looked at Naraku with his usual emotionless stare. "She's not my mate, but a servant I keep around for pleasure & doing tasks."
Naraku smirked. "Then why was she on you in such a way?"
"What part of 'pleasure' did you not here? She means nothing to me, but she is a good servant. She knows how to take orders & how to keep out of my business."
"If she means nothing to you, but is such a good servant, would you care if I borrowed her?"
"What would you need her for?"
"My own purposes."
"For your own services you can find your own servant. How did you find out about her??"Sesshomaru was close to lashing out at Naraku, but he was wise enough to know that something of that nature could blow the cover he was pulling off so well.
"I sent one of my puppets to attack Inu Yasha & his friends but upon watching from my hidden spot, I over heard that Inu Yasha had been badly wounded by a new servant of yours & I'm guessing she is the one they were talking about."
"She is, but you're not taking her with you."
"But if she means nothing, then why not?"
"She's still a good servant."
"She's not a full demon, is she?"
"Her mother was youkai & her father, hanyou. She's more of a demon than you are, meaning she could easily destroy you."
"I doubt this."
"Inu Yasha is near death & you doubt me?"
Naraku shut up, looking as if he was in deep thought before a strange glint rose to his eyes. "Keep a good watch on your servant. She will be mine." It was with those words that Naraku left, leaving Sesshomaru staring after him with red eyes & blue pupils.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*
When Takara awoke, Sesshomaru was no where to be found & she was in her chamber, dressed in her silk covering from the night before. She got up from her bed & dressed in the kimono he'd found her in. It was dark blue with white flowers designed into it. She searched through the castle for him, but the only person or demon she could find was Rin. Not even Jaken was around. "Rin, where is Lord Sesshomaru?" Takara asked, stepping into Sesshomaru's bed chamber, where Rin was.
The little girl that was sitting on Sesshomaru's bed, looked up at her. "I don't know," she whimpered. "He was gone when I woke up."
Takara sat next to Rin & wrapped her arm around her. "Does he ever disappear like this?"
"No," Rin answered, wiping her eyes of the tears that had begun to flow down her cheeks. "He always tells me where he's going before he goes & he's home soon after. But if he isn't going to be back soon, he leaves Jaken here with me or Ah & Un incase I should have to flee from here."
"Do you have any clue of where he could be?" When Rin shook her head Takara sighed, trying to ignore the uneasy feeling she held in the pit of her stomach. "Should we go look for him? Outside the castle & barrier?"
Rin looked up at her with hopeful eyes. "Can we Takara? Can we go look for Lord Sesshomaru?"
Takara nodded & stood. "Let me go change incase we should come across trouble on the way."
"Okay," Rin smiled.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Takara & Rin walked through the slightly tall grass, looking for any sign of their demon Lord. Since it had rained during the night, there were puddles on the ground. Some were large, giving them trouble, & others were small, letting them step through or over. Takara sighed as she tried to pick up any scent that could help them find Sesshomaru, but when she failed again, she looked down as they continued walking. Rin was by her side, holding her hand & looking up at her, never looking at the ground, which was beginning to make Takara's uneasiness grow.
Finally she stopped walking & looked down at Rin, who had stopped walking & was staring up at her. "Rin, why do you keep staring up at me?"
"Is it bothering you?"
"Yes Rin," Takara paused a moment, noting the slightly higher voice the girl now had, "it is bothering me. Can you please stop it?"
"But why?"
"Because it's bothering me."
"Why is it bothering you?"
"If someone was just staring at you, wouldn't you be bothered by it?"
"Not really."
Takara was about to snap at the girl when a twig snapping under the weight of someone or something diverted her attention from the little girl to where the brush was beginning to move slightly as if there was person or thing watching them. She looked back to the little girl, only to find the fox cub from the village grinning up at her. She let go of her human illusion, showing her true form as her eyes were starting to turn a shade of bronze while her pupils were turning silver. But before she could finish turning, she fell to the ground, unconscious.
"Good work Shippo," Miroku said as he emerged from the brush with Sango. "You're very good with your illusions."
"Thank you," the demon smiled, looking at the unconscious woman before them. "Now how do we get her back to everyone without having to worry about her waking up?"
Takara moaned as Sesshomaru buried his throbbing cock to the hilt in her depths, filling her as he bit her shoulder with his fangs. This was the second night they had come together in this fashion & it was proving to be better than the last. He was more needy now than last time, which meant that he was rougher & less caring of how hard he bit her. When he tasted her blood on his tongue, he licked at the salty liquid before her wound healed, the scar of his bite, stayed.
Shippo watched Takara as she squirmed in her sleep, making little sounds that Inu Yasha, despite his weakness, recognized. He scoffed slightly then winced as a small wave of pain hit him. Kagome was quickly by his side & he looked up at her as she started cleaning the hole in his chest cause by the arrow. It had reopened a few moments ago, but was just now started to show on his kimono as it bled, the blood seeping through. He looked from her over to Miroku who was watching Takara with Shippo, who every now & then glanced back at him & Kagome.
"Inu Yasha, are you bleeding again?" Shippo asked, moving from his spot to sit next to Inu Yasha. "What happened?"
"I was scratching at it," Inu Yasha replied. "I didn't know it was bleeding again."
"It's bleeding again because you scratched at it," Kagome snapped. "I told you not to mess with it, but what do you do anyway?"
"It's not my fault it's itchy!"
"Be a little more quiet," Miroku spoke, motioning to Sango asleep across the fire he'd built when they first settled into camp earlier. When they were returning to the others, Takara had awoken but was struck down once more by Miroku's staff. It'd been quite a while since then & it was now dark so they'd had to set up camp for the night. So far there had been so sign of Sesshomaru or his lackey Jaken & that was quite a relief for everyone.
Takara stirred & opened her eyes & started to struggle against the ropes that bound her hands & feet when she realized she wasn't in the castle. "Let me go!" she screamed, fighting more.
"Oh good, you're awake," Miroku said, looking back to her.
Takara looked at the ones surrounding her & let out a loud, ear-piercing scream that caused Kagome & everyone else to cover their ears. She knew her scream would reach Sesshomaru wherever he was & he would soon be there if they didn't shut her up. When she saw Shippo coming to her, she took a breath & screamed louder, her pitch getting higher. Her screams were cut short when Shippo covered her mouth with his hand. She glared at the fox demon, her eyes turning & her features changing.
Miroku saw the potential danger & even though he was getting tired of it, hit her over the head with his staff once more, knowing he had to be causing some sort of head damage to her.
