01 - I mean no harm
A/N: Please let me know if I made any mistakes in spelling. Sometimes I skip over them.
EDIT: Kagome is the same type of demon as Sesshomaru and his family. The only difference is that she is a rare one.
Summary: While on patrol with his father and brother, Sesshomaru finds a lone demoness named Kagome and takes a liking to her. Kagome has always been afraid of males ever since she was taken from her home as a young pup. She had never been shown kindness until now but she's afraid it won't last too long. Sesshomaru tries to show her that not all males are mean and abusive. They both slowly begin to trust and fall in love with each other along the way, but can this happiness last? Many others try to tear them apart.
"Father, Why must we bring Inuyasha with us this time?" Sesshomaru groaned as he followed behind his father and beside his younger brother
"Because he must learn alongside you" His father replied then chuckled "He's old enough to learn what you're learning" Sesshomaru frowned.
"Father, Why doesn't fluffy like me?" Inuyasha asked as he glanced beside him at Sesshomaru.
"Don't call me fluffy, Runt" Sesshomaru snarled as he turned his head
"Don't call me Runt!" Inuyasha growled as he tried to bare his teeth
"Quiet both of you" Their father silenced them.
Sesshomaru suddenly stopped as he heard a faint cry of pain "What is it, Sesshomaru?" His father asked
"I shall go and see" Sesshomaru replied as he took off running towards the sound before his father and brother could say anything. With his speed, Sesshomaru was able to quickly get to the area where the sound came from but hadn't expected to find a demoness.
"G-Get away.." The demoness snarled, hoping he would leave.
Sesshomaru could hear how raspy her voice was and he could see scars as well as bleeding gashes on her. He tried to get closer but she swiped out her claws "I said to go away!" She growled. Sesshomaru snarled which made the female move away from him
"D-Don't hurt me.." She whimpered out. She didn't realize right away that it was a male demon 'I'm sure he's going to kill me..or rape me' She thought with fear.
Sesshomaru could sense her fear and frowned 'This is unusual' He thought as he got closer to her while growling soothingly to her. He then noticed chains around her neck which were obviously too tight, how she managed to keep breathing and speak was a mystery to him.
"I mean you no harm" Sesshomary spoke softly. He reached out his claws before breaking the chains around her neck and watched as she shook them off
"T-Thank you.." She mumbled before backing away from him some more.
He watched as the demoness pressed herself against a tree then her hands started glowing a bright green. His eyes widened 'She's a Miko Demoness!' He continued to watch her heal her wounds 'Wait, Why didn't she do that already?'
The demoness glanced up at him "Those chains..were keeping me from healing myself" He watched as her eyes widened at the sight of him "Y-You're...You're Lord Sesshomaru!" She instantly went down on her knees and whimpered "I'm s-sorry for being rude!" She shook with fear.
Sesshomaru bent down on one knee and hooked a claw under her chin before making her look at him "You have nothing to fear" He could see the tears in her eyes "I wouldn't dare harm a helpless female" He then wrapped an arm around her back and an arm under her legs before lifting her up. He stood back up and began walking back towards where his father and brother were.
The female stared up at him in shock 'W-Why is he being so kind to me? I'm just a female..' This was the first time since she was a pup that she has ever been shown such kindess. She then started quietly sobbing against his chest 'Why am I so helpless when it comes to males?' Unaware that she was starting to clutch onto him.
Sesshomaru stopped and looked down at the female in his arms 'She must have never been shown kindess' His beast whined to be let out so it could comfort the female 'Quiet you' He growled at his beast before rubbing his nose against the female's cheek.
The female soon fell asleep against him.
Sesshomaru continued on walking as he let her sleep 'I shall decide what to do with her once father has approved of her staying with us' He thought 'I'm sure mother can take care of her to help her'
He glanced up and soon spotted his father and brother in the distance 'I wonder what they will think' His eyes began to bleed red at the sight of Inuyasha running towards him. His beast was slowly taking control of him 'That little runt thinks he can come near our female?!' His beast snarled.
