1st Prompt: Illusion
Sesshoumaru watched his brother twist through the air, righting himself to land on his feet, agile as a cat. A smirk twisted his lips as his brother went on the attack; he knew that the wolf didn’t have a chance. He glanced down at the miko standing beside him, facepalmed, as she muttered rude things about stubborn, idiot males that were incapable of comprehending the word: NO!
For reasons beyond Kagome’s ken, the damned, brain-dead wolf refused to surrender his illusion that she would one day be his.
2nd Prompt: Gold
Eyes of gold traced that path of the soon-to-be unconscious wolf flying backwards, headfirst, into an old, sturdy tree. He suddenly became aware of the Miko’s eyes on him. He lifted a questioning brow.
“As a male youkai, can you tell me why Kouga can’t accept that I don’t want him?”
Sesshoumaru smirked, “He would then have to accept that he is not everything a female would want in a mate.”
3rd Prompt: Aura
Kagome’s eyes grew bigger as Sesshoumaru released more of his aura, filling the area with his power. “I, however, do not suffer under that illusion.” He murmured as he crowded her, taking in her gentle scent.
4th Prompt: Enchant
Kagome’s breath caught as he came closer to her. Dimly, she heard Inuyasha shouting something, but she was enchanted by the light in his golden eyes. She felt his hand on her cheek, and then his lips on hers…
5th prompt: Ritual
His head rose, Inuyasha was screaming and stomping around in his usual ritual, trying to assert his ownership over the miko. Her eyes were bemused as she glanced his way. Sesshoumaru surmised that it was Inuyasha’s use of the word ‘Bitch’ that caused his downfall. He smirked at the stream of sits that flowed from her sweet lips, and then out and out smiled as the hanyou created a very deep hole.
She fell silent as she looked at his beautiful smiling face, her mouth open in awe. He bent down to brush her lips again with his.
“Please, Kagome, don’t let me interrupt you.”
6th Prompt: Dazzle
He was dazzled by the stars in her eyes as she looked at him. In that moment, regardless of the claims of the wolf cub and the hanyou pup, he knew that he was her universe. Gently he brushed a lock of hair away from her brow, and then he slid his hand around the back of her head to guide her lips back to his.
The moment their lips met again he realized that he was not the only one dazzled.
7th Prompt: Mystic
Sesshoumaru had always known that the ways of love were mystical.
He could feel Kagome’s heart beating in rhythm with his. Slowly he raised his head again. “You are mine, Kagome.” His whisper was soft, only she could hear the words. The glow in her eyes was his answer.
Too long had they danced their dance of ‘Does He? Does She?’ and now they both knew the answer was yes.
8th Prompt: Magic
Kagome brushed her fingers along one of the stripes on his face. He was so beautiful, and seeing the tender look in his eyes and the sweet smile on his face was a magic moment. She loved him so much that it hurt to be away from him.
“You will stay with me forever, Miko?” His words were again breathed so low that only she could hear.
She looked into his eyes, thrilled at his nearness, delighted by his desire for her. “Sesshoumaru, there is nowhere else I would want to be.” She whispered back.
As they kissed, the hanyou climbed slowly out of his hole. His body ached from the fight and his punishment. He glared at the kissing, soon-to-be mates and heaved a sigh. Well, at least they would still be friends, since she’d chosen his Alpha… He looked at the wolf, whose eyes were open and fastened in horror on the pair before him. Inuyasha swaggered over to stand between Kouga and the lovers.
“See, I told you she wasn’t your woman, ya wimpy wolf!”
