Okay fine! I have been let on that it was absolute TORTURE to let my lovely readers sit waiting…though I would have LOVED to ride this out for a week or two… oh well! Here it is, the EPI! I have literally have been waiting MONTHS to finally post this lovely lemon meringue pie! I stole that from another story I read, its not mine; but I don't recall where I read it from… totally awesome btw… ;) if its yours please let me know so I can give you credit!

A young man in his mid-twenties sat at his desk watching life go by through his window. His office was on the fifth floor of his building. His long black hair was braided as per professional style. His suit was the best money could buy; he did have a reputation to uphold after all. Tashio & Associates was the biggest law firm in Japan and they were exceptional at what they did. He had a sixth sense about his clients; he could always tell when they were lying…

His father left him the firm two years ago. Many of his peers thought him to be too young for the position but he proved them wrong. Two months after succeeding his father, he was handed the case of the year; smirking as he thought of it. One of Japan's most celebrated chef's was accused of murdering her husband. Of course, he knew it was a false statement; she, the chef, had been framed. With his deviousness he caught the killer in a lie on the witness stand; the chef's former partner. The chef was off the hook and he, earned the respect of the company that day. His father was so proud of him; the first time he ever spoke that he was. He sighed. 'So much has changed since that day…'

Coming from his musings, he noticed his phone blinking, signaling he had a call; he absolutely hating the ringing of phones. It hurt his ears too much. Pressing the speaker button, he answered, "Yes Suki…"

"Turn the TV on channel five! It seems some great discovery is happening at Kanazawa!" The line went dead.

'Kanazawa hmm…' Usually something like this he wouldn't bother with. But this time he had this strong feeling he needed to see this. Turning the TV on his flipped the channel to the appropriate one.

"This is Akira Yori coming to you from Kanazawa Castle. Dr. Toru Hamasaki and his team have found a room hidden for more than 400 years! Dr. Hamasaki has been looking for the demon house of the Blue Crescent Moon for over twenty years and hopefully, his search will end today. Dr. Hamasaki, can I have a word?!"

An older man turned, smiling, "Of course my dear!"

The anchor smiled. "So when was this room found?"

"It was found over a week ago. We have been trying to open for some time but it seems that it's not budging. I have called in special reinforcements to help with the situation…"

"Special reinforcements?"

The doctor looked troubled. "Yes; it seems that a barrier has been placed around the door. Only one of spiritual background would be able to open it. Some of my demon assistants have tried and still nothing."

"Ah so you've called in miko reinforcements? Anyone we may have heard of?"

The doctor just smiled. "She is a wonderful miko, but not well known. She wishes to remain anonymous for now…"

The anchor was disappointed that she wasn't going to get a name from the doctor but she didn't let it show with her demeanor. "There you have it folks! Hopefully we will soon see what lies behind the mysterious door. Stay tuned for the latest updates! This is Akira Yori signing off, for now!"

He looked at the TV in awe. He needed to get out there. He grabbed his things, and powered down his computer. Grabbing his cell phone he made a call. "Yes Sir Mr. Tashio?"

"How soon can you get me to Kanazawa?"

His pilot did a quick calculation. "I can have the jet ready in ten minutes and I can get you to Kanazawa in about twenty-five to thirty minutes…"

He smiled. "Good. I'll be there in ten minutes; be ready to depart." He ended the call and made another call to his helipad. "Yes Sir Mr. Tashio?"

"Get ready to take off. I'm heading up now. We're going to the airport."

"Yes sir!" The call was ended and he locked the door to his office.

Suki watched her boss lock his door and approach the elevator. "Suki, I am taking my leave for the day. Reschedule my appointments and you may leave at three if nothing is going on…"

Suki was shocked. He never let her leave early. "Yes sir; thank you sir!"

It took him exactly thirty-two minutes to get to Kanazawa; then another twenty to get to the site. In retrospect, he probably should have just taken the helicopter; he could've just landed at the site. The site was crawling with people, oh how he hated crowds. He made his way to the center of the group where the mysterious room was no doubt. It also seemed that's where all of the rest of the people were going; he could feel people brushing up against him. Looking down at his suit noticing the wrinkles and now the smell of dirt he scowled; he was going have to throw his suit away. This one was one of his favorites too…

Oh how he hated crowds with a fiery passion!

It would also seem that the police put up barricades to keep people at a distance. This wouldn't do. When finally reaching said barricade, he crouched under one and proceeded to walk to the site.

"Hey you! Stop! Only archeological personnel are allowed past the barricades!" The young police officer screamed at him.

He turned his stoic expression to the officer. "As owner of the land you are standing on, do you not think I should be allowed to proceed?"

The officer paled. "Y-yes S-sir Mr. Tashio sir!"

He turned from the officer with a smirk. He continued his way down to the room and felt something powerful; otherworldly if you will. It made him stop short. 'What is this?'

"What do you mean 'It's a tomb'?!" Shippo countered.

Kagome thought about it. "Well it says the two bodies were forever frozen! This is like an epitaph. It tells of their struggles and how they were brought back together only to die together in each other's arms! What else do you think it is?!"

"Well it could just be like a room that tells their story Kagome! Like the Egyptians!" He was freaking out a little bit thinking about possibilities of bodies being buried in there.

Kagome paused. Sure it could be like Egypt, but she had this feeling… "I don't know Shippo. I have a feeling that I know I'm right…" Just then she had a wave of power wash over her and she gasped. "Did you feel that?!"

Shippo looked at her like she was crazy. "Feel what? I didn't feel anything…"

Kagome balked at him. "Come on Shippo! You're a demon! Are you seriously saying you did not feel that rush of energy just now?!"

Shippo thought about it and no, he didn't feel anything! "Kagome you are starting to really freak me out…"

Kagome sighed. "I'm sorry Shippo…" She looked at the still closed door. "Let me see if I can get this door open…" Placing her hands on the door she pushed her powers into it. All around people felt a surge of power and all quieted.

He felt the surge of power and stopped. He had felt this power before, but where? Walking up to where it came from, he was overwhelmed by everything. The power licked his skin; he smelled rain and cherry blossoms. Looking around, it was sunny and in the summer; neither smells could be accounted for. It was all too queer. He walked up to the small group of people and was greeted by an older looking man. "Ah Mr. Tashio; to what do I owe this pleasure..."

He looked at him and smirked. "It seems that a great discovery has occurred on my land and I was not informed. I had to find out by this morning's news…"

The older man laughed nervously. "I am sorry Mr. Tashio. We were having some trouble getting into the room and didn't want to waste your time waiting on us."

He smiled at the older man; knowing what he was saying was true. He also gained respect for him then; knowing that he was busy and didn't want to be bothered. "I thank you for your consideration. I am here now so what is the situation?"

The older man smiled. "We are working on the door now; would you like to join us?"

He nodded. Following the elder he felt another wave a power roll over his body; this time stronger. He felt his body pulse and felt something deep within him blossom. Looking down he noticed his skin was paler and his nails sharper?

Kagome tried again. There was a pretty strong barrier holding this door in place. She let her powers fade back into her and she felt a strong demonic aura tickling the edges of her mind. She sighed; she had felt this aura before. Somewhere in the dark recesses of her mind she saw different colors; silver, amber, maroon and royal blue. Opening her eyes, looking at the door again; the inscription was still there. She traced her fingers over the ancient text wondering why the door wasn't budging. A power surge went through her; gasping she grasped her chest finding it hard to breathe.

"Kagome! Are you okay?!"

She heard Shippo ask her but she couldn't respond. She turned around and found Dr. Hamasaki walking towards her with another person closely following; the aura was coming from him! She saw him look up; their eyes locking. She stumbled up the road to him; Shippo calling out to her.

He looked up and saw two other people. One he knew was a kitsune, the other was a woman, a miko. His and her eyes locked and his mind eye's started throwing pictures at him; a beautiful woman with ice blue eyes and crescent moon on the back of her neck…

He pushed pasted the elder and met the woman half way to the door. He noticed that this woman had chocolate brown eyes and black hair; why was his mind showing him images of a woman with ice blue eyes? "Do I know you?"

"Do I know you?" Kagome asked the same time he asked. They both chuckled. She saw him with dark brown hair and light brown eyes. She was slightly disappointed; why was her mind showing her these things?

All around them they felt a huge surge of power coming from the room. Shippo being the one closest to the door felt the raw power emanating from the other side of the door.

"Something's happening!" The four of them approached the door and they felt it open from the inside. The dust cleared and all of them gasped. It was like walking into another world.

All around them was green grass; water was trickling from an unknown source and the sakura tree that was situated in the middle was blooming. They all entered the sanctuary awed by its splendor. Coming across the small bridge they saw what looked like a stone sarcophagus; looking at each other, asking with their eyes, 'which one of us is going to go first?' Dr. Hamasaki walked closer to the slab and, like the door, it had ancient text upon it. "Shippo! Come here! More text…"

All of them approached the sarcophagus and Shippo came to the top of it, close to where the doctor was. Rubbing his fingers along the writing he transcribed: "Here lies Lord Sesshomaru, sixteenth ruler of the West and his mate, Kagome, daughter of the honorable Midoriko. May they have happiness in the next life…"

The doctor was shocked. "Are you sure that's what it says?"

Shippo re-read what he said and he nodded. "Yes that's what it says."

"The West had only one son from the Inu General… Some texts had said that the Inu General was the fifteen ruler and Inuyasha the sixteenth; however I have come across some ancient texts saying that he was the seventeenth, making no mention of the sixteenth. This discovery will change Japanese history!"

Shippo nodded and rubbed more of the gathered dust and realized that the entire sarcophagus wasn't stone… He gasped. "Part of this is glass…"

They all looked at each other then the sarcophagus. All of them started to remove the dust on the glass; Mr. Tashio being the most apprehensive. Once the dust was cleared, the group was floored once again. Inside were the bodies of aforementioned lord and lady. They all looked through the glass seeing the two; they looked like they were sleeping; no decomposition at all. The two bodies were morbidly beautiful; his silver hair shined, his markings prominent, his kimono pristine. Her miko garb very plain but was also pristine, her hair was of the darkest night with highlights of blue mixed in. Both were holding each other in love's last embrace. Kagome and Mr. Tashio took a closer look and both of them stumbled back. Looking at the other they made the same conclusion…

"They look…" she started

"…like us" he finished.

A bright light engulfed them both. Flashing of images and emotions happened between the two and both could feel everything of the other person. Aura's collided and mixed; powers surged and were consumed by all in the area.

The light finally faded and the doctor and Shippo could finally see. Looking up they saw a different person from before. She wore a twelve layer kimono and had a star adorned on her forehead. She smiled at them. "Come out; I will not harm you…"

They stood from the ground and looked around looking for the other two occupants of the room. The newcomer smiled again. "They lay just here…" She pointed to her right.

Dr. Hamasaki and Shippo looked to the side she indicated and were astonished. There on the ground next to the newcomer were the two that were in the sarcophagus; but this time the two beings were breathing. They looked at her confused for a moment.

Smiling she began to speak. "I am Amida-Nyorai, the goddess of paradise. The one's you see before you are indeed the Lord and Lady of history's past. Four Hundred and thirty five years ago I was sent by my father and mother to right a wrong that was committed against these two. Now it's time for their reincarnates to have a chance at happiness. They are still the same people as before; but they now can share their story with the world." With that she disappeared.

He was starting to wake into his surroundings. Looking around he noticed he was in a garden; one that he was very familiar with. Breathing in his surroundings he smelled dust, humans, cherry blossoms and rain; the latter of the two being the most prominent. He breathed in deeply again noticing warmth on his left side. Opening his eyes he instantly knew something had changed; his eye sight was better, sharper. Turning his head looking to his left he saw black with blue. Turning on his side more he finally got a good look at the person next to him. Moving the hair out of the way he saw a beautiful woman with long eyelashes. She was wearing traditional miko garb over her lithe form. Closing his eyes again he breathed in again. 'The cherry blossoms and rain… They come from her…' Images started filling his mind's eye; images of her smiling face, her shooting an arrow fully charged with power and then one he never wanted to see again; one of her crying and in pain. It made his heart ache. He brought his arms around her small form; nestling his nose in the crook of her neck. Taking a deep breath again, he finally knew who she was; smiling he, mumbled into her neck, "My mate, my love, my Kagome…."

Kagome started to wake; feeling extra warm and comfortable. Breathing in she smelled evergreens and snow. She thought for a minute; it was the middle of summer where were those scents coming from? Then her mind's eye started flashing images; a man with silver hair, amber eyes, magenta markings and a royal blue crescent moon on his forehead. This man, no…demon, had the evergreen and snow scent! Then her memories of him came; his smile, his ferocity while fighting and then a memory she wished she never had to relive again; him turning cold eyes toward her and she feeling his poison eat away at the mark he gave her. She let a tear slide down her cheek. Feeling movement around her she opened her now blue eyes and found herself locked in a gaze with the same amber eyes from her memories. Reaching her hands up, tracing the markings on his face, she smiled. "Sesshomaru…"

He smiled, caressing her cheek all the while rubbing her tears away. "Hai my love, it is me…" Leaning down he kissed her lips; remembering the taste of them from so long ago. Bringing her arms around his neck she deepened the kiss and he didn't mind one bit. When air became vital he rested his forehead to hers; relishing the moment. But his mind kept going back to where he wrongfully banished her, the painful anguish her body went through; he could barely handle it. For the first time in his very long life, he was losing control of his emotions. Letting tears roll freely down his face he clung to her like a lifeline. "I am so sorry for all of the pain I have caused you. I will spend the rest of my life making everything up to you. Is there any way you can forgive me?"

Kagome had tears running down her cheeks again. She pulled him to her and kissed him again. "I forgave you all those years ago before you marked me again…"

He kissed her then; hard and demanding but with all of the passion he had in his being. "How?! How my love? How could you have ever forgiven this Sesshomaru?!"

She looked him in the eye. "You came to me in the end with all the love you had for me before that horrible betrayal and also I knew you saw reason when I felt my sister was killed…"

He swooped in a kissed her again. His tongue tracing her lips, asking for entrance; she, of course, let him enter. Moaning into his mouth she ran her fingers through his hair. He let his hands roam down her side, tickling her as he went. Making his way to her backside, he palmed it and pulled her small form into him. She gasped, feeling Sesshy Jr. standing at attention. He chuckled. "See what you do to me woman?"

She chuckled. "I can see that…" She was about to go back in for more when she heard someone behind her.

"Um… Are we interrupting anything?" Dr. Hamasaki asked from about ten feet away. Shippo was standing behind the elder man a big flush on his cheeks.

Both of them looking up into the old doctor's eyes; he was smiling an all knowing smile.

Kagome blushed and hid herself into Sesshomaru's chest. He wrapped his arms around her and held her; protecting her.

"Mr. Tashio, I know you would like to leave with your mate, but what are we going to tell the press?"

He looked down at the bundle in his arms and smiling; he honestly didn't care about the press at the present moment… But he also knew that the press would hound him and the kind doctor for years if something wasn't found in this room. He thought their sarcophagus would be sufficient but then again…. Just as he was about to open his mouth, another bright light came upon them; Amida-Nyorai had returned, this time carrying something.

She smiled at the doctor and his assistant. Walking towards the two she held out her hand. Inside of the hand was leather bound book. "Here. This should appease the news hungry photographers and news anchors. It is a detailed story of my Lord and Lady. After all this time, I'm sure they would like some privacy…" She looked to her left and saw the newly re-instated pair. Smiling at them she walked over. Sesshomaru and Kagome stood up and waited; both bowing as she came upon them.

Smiling at the pair she ordered them to stand. Sesshomaru was the first to say anything.

"My Lady Amida-Nyorai; how are we to ever thank you for giving us a second chance at life?"

She shrugged her shoulders. "My father and mother have decided that no gifts of thanks are needed; we however just want you to do two things…"

The Lord and Lady looked at each other confused, and then back to the goddess.

Amida-Nyorai smiled again. "First take back your lands and rule; as you were supposed to all those years ago…"

Sesshomaru was shocked; he didn't know that his lands were up for grabs. "Who do I need to talk to?"

The goddess smiled and laughed. "I do believe your general Katsuro has done a wonderful job after your brother left this world; but now it is time for the Silver Inu clan to take back what was theirs. Katsuro has already agreed to give them back; he now understands why you were in a foul mood most of the time… He said and I quote, 'All this paperwork is for the birds!' "

Sesshomaru laughed. Kagome smiled up at her mate; it was great to hear his laugh again. She looked at the goddess with wonder. "And the second thing?"

Amida-Nyorai smiled as she started to fade away. "Live you lives to the fullest and never look back…"

The Lord and Lady looked at each other and smiled. The doctor and Shippo walked up to them; bowing as they reached them. Kagome balked! "Stand back up you two! That's embarrassing!"

Dr. Hamasaki smiled. "Well you are royalty now…"

Kagome stopped her rebuttal short. Thinking about it she agreed that yes, she and her mate were now demon royalty. "Point taken… So how are we going to get out of here?"

All of them looked at the door and shivered; oh how they hated the press… Shippo came up with an idea. "How about me and Toru go first with the book and while we got the press' attention, you guys sneak out…" He said while doing a little creeping type walking.

Sesshomaru looked at the pair in awe. Smiling, he gave his thanks. "That should be satisfactory. If you need any help with matters give my office a call." He extended his hand for the doctor to shake.

Toru gave it a firm grip and shook. "It was a pleasure my Lord." He proceeded to the door.

Shippo came up and gave Kagome a hug. "Don't be a stranger now; you still have classes out here you know…"

She smiled. "Believe me, I don't plan to be gone too long; however Sesshomaru may have other plans…" Looking up she saw the raw lust in his eyes; he still wanted to finish what was started.

Shippo laughed. "Just give me a call Kagome; I'll see you whenever he lets you go…"

Making his way to the door, he and the doctor passed the landing. Flashing of lights and screams of questions could be heard.

Sesshomaru looked down at his mate. "Shall we?"

Smiling up at him she wrapped her arms around his body. "You bet!"

He smirked. Changing into his ball of light he whisked them away to his mansion.

Kagome was amazed that they arrived at his mansion within a few minutes. Looking around she was floored at the sheer size of it. It was a traditional style mansion with a few modern conveniences. She went exploring the home; Sesshomaru let her. He took his phone from his pocket, which was kind of unnerving since he was wearing his kimono from almost five hundred years ago; he didn't remember his kimono having pockets. Dialing the one number that could accomplish all of his goals for the foreseeable future, he waited for the old man to pick up.

"Ah Sesshomaru; I wasn't expecting your call today…. How may I help you?"

He smirked again. "Father, I am taking an extended vacation. No arguments…"

The elder looked down at his schedule and sighed. "I can cover for a week; but that is all. How long is this extended vacation you are planning?"

Sesshomaru looked at his mate running around the house enjoying herself. "At least one month, maybe two…"

"WHAT?! How can you run a company when you're taking months off at a time Sesshomaru?! What cause does this even merit that long of an absence?"

Sesshomaru walked towards the giggling girl and saw she was coming closer to his bedchamber; well, now their bedchamber. Smiling at the old man on the phone he finished his conversation. "Some things came up and I was only making you aware. I shall call later…"

"Sessh-" he heard before ending the call. He powered the phone off and took the battery out of the device, setting it on the side table in the hall. For what was about to transpire, there was definitely no need for any type of disruptions.

Kagome was just enjoying herself too much! She had never been inside a house this nice before. This house could've easily fit four of her apartments inside of it; and that wasn't even including the second floor; which she hadn't even ventured to yet. She also noticed out one of the windows to her left she saw something that brought back great memories; a garden very close in resemblance to the one she knew and loved almost five hundred years ago.

Coming out of her reverie, she felt Sesshomaru's aura rise and pulse. Turning to look at him, she saw him fiddling with his phone near a table in the hallway. He looked at her and it made her breath catch; she hadn't seen that look in a very long time. It was the same look he had given her many times over and it still made her get all hot and bothered; it was a look of pure lust and passion. And she knew it was all for her. Seeing him slink his form up to hers, and feeling his aura flare with every step; causing her core to heat up dramatically.

Finally making it up to her smaller form, he almost couldn't contain himself. When he turned to look at her, he instantly felt her aura spike; as well as the smell of vanilla, her arousal. He could see lust cloud her eyes and it made him want her even more. Now that he was nearly ontop of her, her arousal was almost his undoing. He gently brushed his fingers across her cheek, dragging them down her neck and letting them linger there; she gasped as his deadly claws ran across one of her sweet spots.

Looking up into his amber eyes, now noticing they were tinted red, she reached her hands up, tracing her fingers across his markings; reacquainting herself with the velvety feel of them. Growling low in his chest he swooped in and claimed her lips. Gasping at his forwardness, he claimed her tongue with his. Both battling the other for dominance; he, of course, won. Hands found their way to the other's body, tangling hair, ripping clothing and teasing the other's skin. His hand found her bottom, lifting her up to rest on his front; core to core. Her legs wrapped around his narrow waist; their lips now on even level.

Hunger was now in the fore-front of each other's mind. They're kisses, touches and moans; all hungry. He started walking all the while trailing kisses down her neck and shoulder; her hands were behind his head, tangling in his hair, keeping him there.

"Sesshomaru…" she gasped. Growling again he found the bedchamber and most importantly, the bed. Gone were the futons of old; the bed was more modernized. It was raised off the floor but still low to the ground. Falling onto it they both groaned; Kagome now feeling his still growing erection laying on top of her stomach. Rubbing herself on him, he growled again; this time it rattled her aroused form. Making her more hot and bothered; if that was even possible.

He couldn't take it anymore. Using his claws he cut the clothing off of her. She gasped as the cold air made contact to her heated skin. But she was soon moaning as his very hot mouth replaced her clothing; starting at the top of her left breast, open mouth kissing and licking all around her nipple; his palm mimicking the same to the other.

Kagome bucked her hips at the new sensations. He moaned sending shockwaves to her core. Kagome could only do so much with her hands; pulling at his haori to loosen it, trying in earnest to expose some skin. Finally freeing some of his milky skin, she rubbed her fingers along his broad shoulders.

Feeling her fingers on his skin was like nothing he had ever felt before. Her fingers were cool on his heated skin and they seem to know exactly where to go to cause the most trouble; trouble being him losing more of his precious control. He could feel his beast rattling its cage in his mind. 'Soon…' Licking down to her navel, nipping at her stomach, hearing her let lose a throaty moan of his name, his beast rattled more. Hooking his fingers under the waistband of her hakamas and underwear, he pulled. He was lost to the smell of her arousal; it was so thick and heady. He didn't wait for anymore teasing touches; he could already tell she was more than ready. Lifting her legs ontop of his shoulders, he dove in.

Kagome screamed in pleasure. He licked her from bottom to top; ending with the bundle of nerves at the top of her weeping flower. Her hands grabbed at his sliver mane, her hips basically humping his face. Chuckling at her antics, he placed his hands ontop of her hips; enabling her from moving. She huffed at him but it turned into moaning.

Kagome couldn't believe the kind of sensations she was feeling; sure, in this day and age, you were bound to release some tension in some way. But what Sesshomaru was doing, it was one thousand times better than her fingers. She grabbed onto the sheets, his hair, her breast, she didn't know; she needed to find some sort of stability from the pleasure she was receiving. Feeling the familiar knot forming at the base of her spine she knew she would be coming undone very soon. "Sesshomaru…"

Hearing her moan his name, made him moan. Sensing she was close to undoing, he slowly and ever so carefully inserted a single digit into her weeping sex. She screamed at the intrusion, more shocked then actual pain. He continued his ministrations, slowly moving his finger in and out of her, licking her pearl until he could feel her squeezing his digit with her walls. "AH! Sesshou…. I'm… I'M!..."

His eyes were red; he drank of her like a fountain. It was the sweetest thing he had ever tasted. He continued his treatment of her; licking her pearl to make it last for her. As she came down from her high, he sat up and rid himself of his clothing. Soon he was as naked as she was. Coming up to her lips, feeling her skin on his, he moaned a kiss onto her lips.

Tasting herself on his lips she kissed him harder and with more lust than she had previously. Feeling his legs slide in between hers she gasped. She had seen his member before but now feeling it, feeling how big it was, she didn't think it would fit!

He trailed kisses down her jaw, to her neck then to her ear. Licking the shell of it, he spoke. "Are you ready to become one with me my mate?"

His voice was deeper than usual and she absolutely loved it. It rumbled her body enough to make her wet again. Looking up into his eyes, not once did fear creep into her disposition but arousal did. Nodding her head, she reached up and caressed his cheek. Cupping the back of his head she brought him back down for another searing kiss. That was all the answer he needed.

Using his knees to spread hers, he aligned his member to her untouched entrance. He pushed in slowly, savoring each centimeter. Kagome felt very full and he was still going; she whimpered. Sesshomaru ceased moving seeing the pain expression on her face. He kissed her once, twice and a third time; trying to get her to think of something else. She relinquished her hold on the pain she was feeling and was swept away into one of his kisses. His tongue traced her teeth and gums, entangling her tongue with his. He kissed his way back down to her ear. "I am sorry my love…" He whispered in her ear. Pushing forward he sheathed his member into her fully. She cried out at the intrusion; all of the muscles tensing as soon as he was seated into her. He smelled the blood of her virginity and it saddened him that he had hurt her again. Never before did he think that taking her virginity a second time would be this hard on him…

He growled in his chest to calm her and also because she was choking him; she was extraordinarily tight. Kissing her again he waited for her to move; giving her the authority to begin again.

She was breathing heavily trying to control the pain she was in. She felt him kiss her face, her neck, her collarbone; whispering sweet nothings in her ear to calm her down. After seconds, minutes, hours, they didn't know which, she moved her hips slightly and was gifted with pleasure; gasping as his member moved slightly within her.

Groaning again he kissed her and started to pull away; he was not disappointed. She was unknowingly trying to keep him within her! He thrusted back in, and both moaned at the sensations. He set a steady pace with her meeting each one with her hips.

"Faster" she groaned out.

He looked down at her in awe. "If I go any faster, I will hurt you my love. I promised to never hurt you again…"

She looked up into his face. His eyes were red with blue pupils, his markings seemed darker, and his hair sticking to his sweat covered body. Bring her hands up to cup his cheeks, she smiled. "You will never hurt me again Sesshomaru; I trust you…"

He smiled; leaning down, he gave his mate a kiss that took her breath away. He started his pace again; this time using his demon speed. Soon she was panting for "more" and "harder;" he was only happy to oblige.

Kagome could nothing up hold onto his shoulders. She cried out her second orgasm and he was still going.

Feeling her clench around him was awe-inspiring. He slowed only for a moment, savoring the feel of her around him. Feeling her rippling muscles trying to milk his cock; he smirked. 'Not yet…' He soon continued. After giving her another orgasm he pulled from her. She looked at him like he had grown a second head. "Why did you stop?!" She panted out.

He chuckled. Picking her up slightly and turning her around. Bringing her up on her hands and knees, he sheathed into her again. She screamed out again; feeling him go deeper inside of her than in the other position. She was soon peaking again. "Ah Sesshomaru!"

He grunted. He didn't think that taking her in this position would be so much better! Feeling the tell-tale sign of an impending orgasm at the base of his spine, he increased his strokes by ten-fold. Kagome grabbed the sheets under her, screaming again; letting the pleasure take her again; this time so much stronger. "SESSHOMARU!"

He growled out, her name bursting from his lips. "KAGOME!" Releasing his seed into her welcoming womb, he bit down onto the mark he gave her so many years ago; completing the bond between them. Kagome released again with the euphoric feeling of his youki entering her body as well as his member swelling feeling her every crevice. Feeling his arms come around her spent form she let the darkness take her.

Sesshomaru was coming down from his high as well. Feeling everything all at once, caused him to have a second release; bright white light entering his vision. He did have enough sense in him to wrap his arms around his new mate and lay them on their sides before entering the darkness.

Sesshomaru started to wake into his surroundings. First noticing the darkness filling the room; it was either night or early morning. Second thing he noticed that he was in his bedroom, and thirdly was the slight weight in front of him. Remembering the day's events he laid back down spooning his mate's small form. Moving closer to her he did notice that he was still connected to her intimately. Hearing her moan in her sleep, he began to run his fingers along her sweet spots, slowly waking her up. He groaned when he felt her muscles squeeze him. His fingers ventured down to her curls, finding her pearl, massaging small circles around it.

Kagome was waking up to some really good feelings. She felt herself being brought closer to release with his touches. Turning slightly behind her, she found his lips, sealing them with her own. Tongues danced against the other between gasps and moans.

Sesshomaru continued to manipulate her button all the while feeling her muscles quivering around his still embedded length. Groaning he pressed harder and faster into her, she bringing her hand behind his neck for a more demanding kiss. Gasping she was coming close to her end, he along with her. "Sesshou…"

Using his demon speed, he moved his fingers back and forth along her glistening pearl, she screamed as she released, milking him for all she was worth. Sesshomaru, though still tied to her, released more of his seed into her. He continued to leisurely stroke her button, getting little jerks out of her body; keeping her at her high for as long as possible.

She relaxed back down beside him, still breathing heavy; he licked and nicked at his mark. He continued to rub his fingers along her body; loving the feel of her skin so close to his.

"Mhmm… What brought that on?"

He chuckled; leaning back down kissing her neck again. "I just wanted to hear you moan my name again…"

She laughed. "Well you got your wish… I wonder what time it is."

He settled back down behind her and wrapped his arms around her. "It matters not… We cannot leave the bed yet…" Proving his statement, he moved his hips forward, listening to her groan, he chuckled.

She gasped again as she felt his length move again within her. "Keep doing that and I might come again…"

He smirked evilly. Thrusting his hips forward again, loving the sounds she was making; he wasn't really moving within her, just the pressure of him hitting something within her was making her hot and bothered. Slinking his hand back down to her pearl, he started rubbing it again. It didn't take long for her to release again. He smiled at her again. Leaning over, he lazily kissed her until she calmed down.

Sighing she closed her eyes, feeling her mate with her and within her she felt safe for the first time in a very long time. Looking up into his eyes, she saw the raw love in them. Smiling she let her eyes close. "I love you Sesshomaru…"

He kissed her again on the lips. Laying back down behind her, bringing her body closer to his, nuzzling her neck, breathing in deeply of her scent. Smelling sakura blossoms, rain, vanilla; scents what was all her. Now however, his evergreen and snow scent was mingling with hers; it calmed him and his beast so much. Taking another big whiff of everything he smelled his scent stronger than before with a different scent all together; cinnamon. Eyes widening, he was now gifted with something that all those years ago, they could not have… He guessed, Kami knew better…

Smiling again, bringing his hand down to rest on her flat stomach just under her navel.

"And I you, koi…"

And THAT my lovely's, is it! Thank you so much for sticking with it and continuing to the very end! Please R&R! :D
