A/N: Hi everyone! I'm new to Dokuga, but I have been writing SessKag fics on FanFiction for awhile. I decided to go ahead and post something on here, too. Hope you all enjoy!

Deceiver

Chapter One: Prologue

The night is still. The moon is full and bright, and there's a slight breeze in the air. It seems like the most peaceful night, but as we all know, looks can be very deceiving. On this night, secrets come to light. Deception is revealed, and the most improbable love affair is laid bare.

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

He just looked at her. There was no yelling, no screaming, and no insane temper tantrums. He just looked at her. Stared at her, stared through her, and sighed sadly.

"All I really want to know is why. Why couldn't you just tell me?" Inuyasha asked, dejectedly.

Kagome sniffled. "I just didn't know how you'd react. You two aren't the best of friends, you know."

"Damnit Kagome! All I want is for you to be happy! If that bastard makes you happy," he sighed again, "I'd swallow my pride, swallow my bitterness, and be happy for you."

"I realize that now, Inuyasha. I was being stupid and selfish. I never once thought about how this would affect you, and I'm sorry for that. I really am. I won't apologize for loving him, though. I just hope you can find it in you to forgive me."

"I need time, Kagome. This-this is a lot to take in right now and I just need to be alone."

Kagome nodded. "Sure. Anything you need. We'll be right here."

Inuyasha nodded back, and turned to leave. Sango and Miroku just stood there in shock. How did things end up like this? When did this happen? So many questions were running through their minds and the only ones who could answer them were the two star-crossed lovers standing across the clearing.

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

"You haven't said a word this entire time, Sesshoumaru."

"I did not find it necessary for me to speak. This was between you and Inuyasha. My intervention would have only made the situation worse."

Kagome nodded and smiled up at him. She understood and loved him even more for that. She knew full well he could have taken full advantage of the situation and taunted about how he had taken another thing away from him.

"I am aware of how much he means to you and, as he said, I would swallow any lingering bitterness and contempt I may hold for him, if it would make you happy." said Sesshoumaru.

Kagome flashed him a brilliant smile. "You don't know how much that means to me."

"Anything for you, love."

With that, he placed a gentle kiss upon her lips. Miroku and Sango were stunned. This was not the same Sesshoumaru they knew. What exactly happened between those two?

A/N: Yes, what happened, indeed? Find out next chapter when we go back to the beginning.
