Arashi: I adopted this story from Suikazura with permission. I hope you guys will like the story. I'm sorry for the inconvenience to the original writer that wasn't Suikazura. I change the name and summary because of this problem. I'm going to change a few things after the fourth chapter even possible with in the next three following. I hate it when people copy other's work. So deepest apologizes neko-hanyou12 once again.

Disclaimer- I don't own Inuyasha at all. I dream I did.

Summary: As a demon's mate comes within sight or smell, the demon knows that is their mate to cherish and love. Ever since the moment he laid eyes on Kagome, Inuyasha knew this was his destined mate. The only problem is that Kagome doesn't accept the fate of being his mate. Can the two of them finally be mates at last before leaving their separate ways?

Destined Mates

Chapter 1

Kagome Higurashi straightened her skirt as she stood up to get off the bus.

"This is pathetic," mumbled to herself, "I'm eighteen and I still have to take the bus 'cause I don't have a car!"

She hoisted her backpack over her shoulder as she made her way to the front steps of

Shikon Academy.

"Kagome!"

Kagome turned around to see her long time best friend, Sango Taijiya, rushing up to her.

"Sango!"

The two girls hugged before heading into the building together.

"Sango, I thought you weren't supposed to get back until tomorrow? Why didn't you call me," Kagome asked as she headed for her locker.

"Dad let us come home early and when we got home it was like two in the morning and I know just how well you handle being woken up early, so I decided against calling you."

"And for that, I thank you," Kagome smiled, "but why did you want to come home early?"

Sango sighed as she turned the combination to her locker that was next to Kagome's.

"You know my cousin, Mika, who you met at my tenth birthday? Well, she just turned fifteen and has decided that she wants to be EXACTLLY like me! I couldn't take it anymore!"

Kagome chuckled, receiving a glare from her best friend.

Sango was a taijiya and her entire family had a reunion on an island that had lasted all summer. They were supposed to train and bond with the members of their family that they don't always get to see.

"So how was your summer, Kags?"

"It was alright," Kagome shrugged, "I had my training lessons with Kaede everyday.

Then of course, after training I would go to the beach and basically just try my hardest to avoid HIM."

Inuyasha Takahashi pulled into the student parking lot and cut the engine on his red Dodge Viper SRT-10.

(a/n: I don't know anything about cars so I looked up ones online. Heh heh, the powers of an internet connection!)

In the passenger seat his best friend, Miroku, smiled mischievously.

"Another year, another chance to woo Sango," he said as he reached for the door handle to let himself out.

"Miroku, your never gonna get Sango to like you unless you give up your 'little habit'."

"Inuyasha, I can't help it if my hand constantly needs the comfort of a woman's soft, round backside to survive!"

Inuyasha let out a low snort before stepping out of his Viper and into the sun-filled morning.

'Where is he,' Inuyasha thought to himself, sniffing the air for her scent.

It was not in Inuyasha's character to show up early for school, but he knew that that was when she liked to arrive, his little over-acheiver.

He made his way to the front steps, with Miroku following close behind.

"Looking for Kagome, I presume," Miroku asked knowingly.

"Damn right," Inuyasha stated as he headed for the senior hallway.

When Demon's meet their mates they can instantly tell if he or she is their mate by their scent. Even though Inuyasha was only a half-demon he had still realized his mate went to his school the moment he walked in his first day of freshmen year. Her scent of vanilla and cherry blossoms alone had pretty much driven him up the wall.

Flashback

A young, freshmen Inuyasha scanned each of the floors, looking for the owner to the heavenly scent. His search was cut short when he heard the warning bell for homeroom ring.

He caught up with Miroku and they made their way to homeroom together. Inuyasha walked into the room and was instantly attacked by the scent he had been searching for just moments before. His amber eyes scanned the room and they landed on the far right corner.

There was a group of friends sitting together and in the center of the circle was his angel. She had raven colored hair that fell just past her shoulders in waves. Her skin was a creamy porcelain that created a striking contrast against her dark hair. Her warm chocolate brown eyes were lit up as she laughed at something one of her friends said.

She was wearing a powder blue t-shirt that clung to her curves and a faded jean skirt that showed off her well-toned legs.

Another one of his angel's friends laughed and drew Inuyasha's attention. His eyes narrowed and a low growl started from the pit of his stomach.

HIS MATE WAS SITTING ON ANOTHER GUY'S LAP!

Inuyasha's jealousy heightened as he saw the boys loose grip around his woman's waist. His eyes flashed red for a second as his demon side was threatening to surface but he overcame it as he made his way to the group.

He stalked over and crossed his arms, looming over the boy who held HIS mate. The group fell silent as everyone looked up to eye the new visitor.

"Can we help you," said the boy Inuyasha was looming over.

"Yes, you can get your filthy paws off my bitch," Inuyasha growled out as he grabbed his woman's wrist and pulled her up.

Surprise filled the girl's eyes, but was quickly replaced by anger.

"What did you just call me!"

Inuyasha smirked and leaned down to whisper in his mates ear.

"I called you my bitch, you gotta problem with that," Inuyasha whispered seductively for her ears only.

His smile widened when he picked up on the faint scent of arousal. His smirk grew even wider as he instantly thought up a plan to further heighten her delicious arousal scent.

Inuyasha quickly darted out his tongue and heard his woman's friends gasp as his tongue graced her earlobe. His angel shuddered, further boosting his ego. What happened next, however, shocked the stunned room even further.

The girl's hand reached up and slapped Inuyasha across the cheek, leaving a bright red mark. The girl was fuming as she glared at Inuyasha. His shocked expression subsided and he glared back at the girl.

"Obviously," Inuyasha growled out, "you need to learn who your alpha is, bitch."

The teacher chose that moment to enter the room and quickly intervened in what looked like a sticky situation. Once, the situation had been settled, Inuyasha was told to go to the principal's office for his behavior.

As he walked toward the door he couldn't help but overhear a tiger youkai whisper, "Looks like the dog-boy has found his bitch."

"Damn straight," Inuyasha responded as he walked out of the room.

End Flashback

Inuyasha smirked, remembering that day. Since then he had claimed that girl as his. Yes, Kagome Higurashi was his, whether she wanted to be or not. Inuyasha frowned at that thought. Though Kagome understood the way of demons and he had been pursuing her since freshmen year she still refused him!

She was denying her fate! Why did he have to get stuck with the most stubborn bitch of all! Granted she wasn't just stubborn. She was also fiery and as sexy as hell! With her smooth creamy legs, her voluptuous chest, and her silky smooth hair! Any man; youkai, hanyou, or human would sell their souls just to be in her presence.

'

And she's all mine,' Inuyasha thought to himself, his smirk growing wider. This was the year. This was the year that Inuyasha would make Kagome submit. She would become his mate by the end of senior year. So with heightened confidence, Inuyasha strode down senior hallway where his angel was at her locker.

"So it was just me, Souta, and a case of fireworks. What else were we supposed to do?"

Sango laughed hysterically, wishing she had spent the summer with Kagome and not her relatives.

"What's so funny," a voice whispered in Kagome's ear. She gave an involuntary shudder before turning to the smirking hanyou who had appeared next to her.

"None of your business, Takahashi," Kagome spat out angrily as she attempted to escape from Inuyasha iron grip on her waist.

Inuyasha's grip tightened as he leaned down to whisper in her ear.

"Everything about you is my business, mate," he whispered seductively so only she could hear, "and I mean everything."

Kagome rolled her eyes and pushed her arousal deep down, trying her hardest to hide it. Her gaze landed on Inuyasha's face to notice his all-knowing smirk. He had smelt the arousal in her scent.

'Damn that cocky, flea-infected, bastard,' Kagome thought to herself angrily as she began to struggle harder against Inuyasha's grip.

"Let go of me, Takahashi!"

"Mmmm…no," Inuyasha replied as he pulled Kagome so she was right up against him.

Kagome gasped when she felt something hard rub against her stomach. Inuyasha smirked as he leaned down to whisper seductively in her ear once again.

"For you and only you, mate."

Kagome shivered and was vaguely aware of Sango saying she'd catch up with her later before scurrying off.

"You see, Kagome," Inuyasha continued to whisper to Kagome, "even your little friend knows not to get between a demon and his mate. Stop denying your fate and just come to me willingly."

Kagome gazed into his amber orbs that were so heated with passion that she no longer wanted to refuse him. She wanted to trust what he said and be able to be with him. She hated this. Being in his presence for too long always clouded her judgement, made her weak.

He couldn't stand it any longer. He had pursued his mate for over three years now and had yet to even taste her sensuous lips. He growled and pushed Kagome up against the lockers, gently, so as not to hurt her fragile human body.

"Kagome, you've made me wait too long damnitt," Inuyasha growled out.

With that said, Inuyasha leaned down towards Kagome's startled face. He gripped her waist to hoist her up so that she was at eye level with him. His lips were just inches from hers and he could feel her warm, ragged breath mingling with his own. Her arousal was surrounding her like a thick coat and he couldn't help but close his eyes to revel in the spicy scent.

He opened his eyes and licked his lips expectantly. Just as he was about to claim her lips as his, he heard her faint voice call him back to reality.

"Please, Inuyasha, stop," Kagome pleaded desperately.

Inuyasha let go of his grip on her waist and she straightened her outfit before looking Inuyasha in the eyes.

"Inuyasha, I'm sorry. It just can't happen. I'm really sorry."

Kagome then began to walk down the hall to find Sango, but not before Inuyasha's voice reached her ears.

"You will be my mate, Kagome. Even if it takes me the rest of my life to make you so."
