 "Stay away from her, Inuyasha."

Sesshoumaru was talking into his cell phone with his venom laced voice. He was in his office, on his desk laid pictures and reports from a detective he hired.

A sigh from the other end. "So you finally find out, huh? And the answer is no, I won't. 'cause I love her Sesshoumaru. And guess what, she loves me too." Inuyasha's voice was heard on the other end of the line.

Sesshoumaru snarled and gripped his cell phone until it cracked a little. "She is my wife!"

"But she is not happy with it. She doesn't love you."

"Do you think I care!! Her feeling has nothing to do with the fact that she is mine! And you will stay away from what is mine!" His voice was dangerously low.

"That's where you're wrong, Sesshoumaru. I and she were in love since we were in school. And she should have been mine. But your dirty trick blew it all apart. You forced her to marry you. She doesn't love you. She loves me! She is originally mine!" Inuyasha was getting pissed off also. Who wouldn't, if your love in live was taken away from you with dirty trick!

"I am getting tired with this conversation, Inuyasha. Heed my word. This is your last warning." He hissed and turned off his cell phone, and in the next second a loud crack was heard from his now shattered cell phone on the floor.

He breathed deep, trying to calm himself. Today the detective he hired confirmed that his wife had betrayed their marriage, spotted with her ex-boyfriend in several occasion. He released a frustrated sigh. This does not bode well for my day. He decided he would come home early today. He needed to have a talk with his beloved wife.

"Good evening, Mr. Taisho." His butler, Jaken, opened his door and welcomed him home, taking off his  briefcase and coat.

He nodded. "Where is she?"

"Mistress is... going out." Jaken answered hesitantly.

He narrowed his eyes. "To where?"

Jaken gulped. "I..."

Then suddenly the front door opened. Kagome walked in with her head still on the outside direction. "Thanks for today, Inuyasha! See you tomorrow!" She laughed and waved her hand. She then turned her head, and her big cheery smile faltered upon seeing him. A look of mild disinterest was now on her face. "You're home early." She stated to him and walked pass him after handing her coat to Jaken.

Sesshoumaru gritted his teeth and followed her upstairs. When they had entered their room, he pulled her roughly to him. "What were you doing with him??"

Kagome struggled a little while answering him. "Nothing much. We did the things we usually do when we were still together. Seeing movie, chatting in the café, walking down the park, nothing unusual."

"Nothing unusual??" His fastened his grip on her hand. She winced in pain. "Going out with another man IS CONSIDERED UNUSUAL for a married woman!"

"I have told you many times. He is not another man! He is my love!"

He slapped her face. "Do not test my patient wife. I am not a kind person if you betray me." He hissed.

Kagome touched her pained cheek with her free hand; staring at him with pure hate. "I hate you, Sesshoumaru. You're a monster. You purposely destroyed my family's business, the business my father had spent his life into. My father killed himself because of you, and left us with unimaginable debts. You made me to have no other choice but to accept your proposal. If it's not for my mother and brother's welfare, I would have run away with Inuyasha."

He grabbed her shoulder harshly and leaned his face so he was staring at her deep blue eyes. "Run? You were thinking to leave me?" His voice was dangerously low. Kagome stared at her defiantly, dared him to slap her again. But he got other plan for her. "Think again, wife." He then dipped his head to kiss her harshly.

Kagome struggled wildly, but was unable to fight his muscular body that now had lifted her and then threw her on their bed. He quickly straddled her and ripped open her clothes. Kagome screamed. It was always like this. Every night she would reject him, and every night he would then force his way with her.

Sesshoumaru laid in his bed with his beloved wife beside him. He stroked her back slowly, savoring the softness of her skin. My wife... Mine. He noticed that she hadn't stopped crying, so he nuzzled her. "Ssh I have never intended to make you cry. You're my wife, and I care for you. But you should act like a good wife."

No response from her besides her sniffing. He sighed. "Kagome, you know that I want you so much. Being wanted by me is a blessing. I can give you what ever you want in this whole world. Just tell me what you need; I will fulfill it in an instant."

She sniffed a little; and then answered weakly. "Love." He tensed. "I need love. You can't give me that Sesshoumaru. Only Inuyasha can."

He narrowed his eyes and moved to be on top of her again. His grip on her arms would undoubtedly left bruises. He lowered his face to her until their noses touched. "I could have given you love, if you just forget your love with Inuyasha."

"I can't, and I won't."

"You said you won't give me your love?" He moved to position himself in between her thighs and spread her open. Kagome struggled again, knowing what would happen next. But as always, she was unable to fight him. "... But I am taking it anyway!" And then he thrust into her. Kagome screamed and cried. But he just continued his sick action to acquire her love until the break of dawn.

"I can't believe what he had done to you, Kags." Inuyasha stroke Kagome hair lovingly. He was in Sesshoumaru's bed, hugging Kagome's sobbing body. Sesshoumaru had left very early in the morning for a business trip for three days; and the moment he was gone, Kagome called Inuyasha to come. There was where Inuyasha found her. In his bed, unable to move because of her soreness; and her pale skin was full of bruises.

"I couldn't take it anymore, Inuyasha. Take me away from here." She sobbed into his chest.

"Ssh. Yes I will. After I'm finished preparing for our disappearance, I will get you out from here. Your mother and brother have packed their things, and soon I will be able to take them safely out of town. And then I'll be back to get you."

"He won't be home for three days. This is our perfect chance."

"You're right. Now go to sleep. I'll watch over you." Inuyasha spoke softly to her, and let her snuggled deeply in his embrace. Little did they know, a set of piercing golden eyes were watching their interaction with barely suppressed rage.

Inuyasha noticed that finally Kagome was sleeping soundly. He moved her from his hold carefully, and put her comfortably in the bed. He smiled softly seeing her beautiful innocent face, even though it was marred by bruises. Soon I'll get you out from here Kags. I promise you. He then leaned down to kiss her cheek. Kagome murmured something and he chuckled a little.

He went to the window and jumped off to the tree beside it and made his way down. When he was in the ground, he dusted his clothes and steadied his feet. But when he took a steep forward and lifted up his head, he was faced by a gun. Sesshoumaru was pointing a gun at him, smirking darkly. And the last word Inuyasha heard was "She's mine." And a loud blast.

Kagome jerked awoke. She had been sleeping on the window ledge, waiting for Inuyasha. She rubbed her sleepy eyes. What time is it? Where is he? It's been three days and not a word from him. Inuyasha, please come quickly. Sesshoumaru will be home soon. She bit her lip anxiously.

Then the door of his room opened. Inuyasha? She turned her face to see her worst nightmare stepped inside. No! He's home already!

"Hello wife." He smirked and strode to her. She ignored him and turned her attention back outside. I hope Inuyasha won't come today. It wouldn't be good if he faced Sesshoumaru. A sigh. There will always be tomorrow.

He was behind her now, circling his arm on her waist and drew her closer to him. "I thought that you will be waiting for my homecoming downstairs."

"I'm not waiting for you."

"Hn. Then who are you waiting for?"

Silence. He chuckled and leaned closer to her ear. "He won't come around here anymore, love."

Kagome was startled. "Who...?"

"Hn . I don't know. Why don't you tell me who you are waiting for."

She turned herself to face him. "What did you do Sess?" She narrowed her eyes.

He shrugged. "It's not my fault. You both deserve it."

"What did you do??" She was in panic. What had he done? Did he do something to Inuyasha?? He didn't answer, just stared smugly at her. Unable to hold it anymore, she broke down and cried. "No, no, no." She was thinking the worse.

Sesshoumaru hugged her and whispered. "I'm so sorry darling. Did I do the wrong thing? What was I thinking?" He held her tighter. "Nothing but jealousy."

He hugged her sobbing body, not feeling the slightest bit of remorse or sadness. What he felt was triumph. He had won his wife back and he got his prize right where he wanted, in his embrace. Yes... removing an obstacle in my life.  I don't feel so bad indeed.
