"Are you sure about this, Kagome?" Sango her best friend and fellow ice skater asked. "Have you really thought this through? You might end up hurting both of your careers."

Sango has been with me since our early teenage years, now we are both in our early twenties. Her ice skating partner is Miroku, a known pervert with a cursed hand.

I pretended to ignore her and stared out towards the mass of reporters. Today, I would be giving a press release, announcing my separation from my ice partner and boyfriend, Inuyasha. We never hid our relationship from the press and now that I think about it, maybe we should have. He actually had the nerve to dump me after all these years for a whore named Kikyo that he was sleeping with behind my back.

I blamed the both of them. I should have never brought Inuyasha around my cousin. I never really thought that Inuyasha would betray me like he did. Inuyasha told me that I was of no use to him anymore, since I never opened my legs for him sexually. At least, he told me before nationals in three weeks. I actually found a partner willing to work with me so late into the season.

Miroku took his opportunity to feel my ass. "Pervert!" I hissed, hitting him in the back of the head with my fist. "I am not Sango, damn it!"

"Watch your damn hands pervert," Sango spoke angrily, hitting him once more in the back of the head for good measure. "It sickens me that you put your hands on me while we are practicing our routine. Who knows what kind of germs you pick up."

Miroku grinned. "My hands are cursed, my dearest Sango. I cannot help it."

"And I cannot help where my fists go either," she retorted back. She then turned back towards me. "This is not like you. I'm not trying to tell you what to do, even though it looks like it, but I don't want to see this plan of yours backfire. Inuyasha will strike back at you even harder."

I forced a smile upon my lips. It was too late to turn around. I had already made up my mind days ago. I would deal with Inuyasha when the time comes. I left my friends behind and took the stairs that lead to the stage. I walked gracefully across the stage to my chair and sat down. I took a couple of deep breaths before nodding my head to a female blonde reporter in the front row.

The reporter smiled politely at me. "Is it true that you and Inuyasha are through off and on the ice? Did he leave you for your cousin, Kikyo?"

I continued to smile even though I wanted to scream at the woman for asking those questions. But I knew that the reporters wouldn't play nice with me. "It's true that he left me for my cousin, Kikyo. I hold no grudges against them and wish them the best," I spoke happily, lying through my teeth. I would use kindness and sincerity to win over the people. I will make Inuyasha the bad person in their eyes.

"Next question, please," I said, pointing to a dark haired man. I shivered slightly in fear. The man I had just picked reminds me of Naraku.

The reporter stared at me for a few seconds trying to figure me out. He was giving me the creeps. "What does this mean for your career? Will you retire or search for a new skating partner?"

I wanted to bang my head against the table. These reporters are absolute morons. No wonder my new skating partner didn't want to deal with them. He would probably have killed them by now. "I will not be retiring. In fact, I have already found a new partner and we will be competing in three weeks at Nationals."

The doors in the back of the room opened to reveal none other than Naraku himself. I wondered how he had managed to get in here. It was supposed to be invitation only. "Is it true that your new partner is Sesshoumaru Takashi? Inuyasha's older half-brother," he spoke loudly enough for the reporters to hear.

He smiled evilly at me while walking towards me. I wanted to run and hide. For once in my life, I wanted to be the coward. "You should have chosen me, my Kagome," he whispered softly near my ear. "I could have made your dreams of going to the Olympics come true."

I turned to plead to Sango for help. And sure enough, my friend came to rescue me. "Leave, Naraku. You're not wanted here," Sango hissed.

Naraku chuckled, placing his hand upon my shoulder. "I just wanted to make Kagome change her mind. What's the harm in that?"

Sango glared at him with pure hatred in her eyes. "I highly doubt that. She can't stand to even be in your presence. What do you do to her that makes her fear you so?"

Naraku moved his hand from my shoulder, stroking my ass. I started to shake uncontrollably and felt disgusted with myself for letting him touch me. But my fear would not let me move any part of my body. My eyes scanned for Miroku but he was no where to be found.

"That is Kagome's and my business. It does not concern you, bitch," Naraku hissed back, moving his hand to the back of my neck, to warn me not to speak.

A tiny gasp came out of my mouth as I watched Sesshoumaru stride angrily towards us. He turned towards the reporters. "If you are not out of here in two seconds, I will end all of your miserable lives," he spoke coldly, smirking at the reporters scrambling to flee the room. Once he saw that they obeyed his orders, he focused his attention back to us. "Let her go, Naraku. I don't know what game you are playing but I will be the one to finish it for you."

Naraku released his grip on me. He probably didn't want to fight with Sesshoumaru like the coward he is. "I will take my leave for now. But I will speak to you later, Kagome. We have unfinished business between us."

I released a sigh of relief, once Naraku was gone. Sesshoumaru stared at me coldly. "What?" I asked, staring back at him. "Why are you looking at me strangely for?"

"You are really pathetic. I don't even know why I decided to have you as my partner," he spoke, turning his back on me, taking his leave.

I felt my miko powers increase as I filled with rage. How dare he call me pathetic! Why the nerve of that demon. If I wasn't so desperate for a skating partner, I would purify his ass! He doesn't even know why I am so fearful of Naraku. I have never told anyone what happened between us. Naraku swore me to secrecy or he would injure my family.

"You are a complete asshole, Sesshoumaru!" I shouted to his retreating form. "You have no right to judge me! If you ask me, you're the pathetic one!"

I knew I had pissed him off when he flew at me, wrapping his claws around my throat. "You will not disrespect me like that again. Do I make my self clear, miko," he hissed at me, waiting for my answer. I nodded my head slowly, while trying to gasp for more air.

He released me, letting me fall to the floor. "We had signed the contract so I will be honoring my side of the terms. Other than that, I don't care what you do, miko."

This time he actually did leave. Sango came to my side, helping me back on my feet, and checked out my neck. "Damn, demon. You're neck is going to be bruised tomorrow. I suggest you wear something that will hide them. I don't understand why he left marks on you."

I knew why. He wanted me to remember what will happen if I disrespected him again. "I'm fine, Sango. All I want to do now is grab a bite to eat and go to sleep. I have training early tomorrow morning with Sesshoumaru."

Miroku decided to put his two cents in. "Kagome, I know this is none of my business but what is the deal with you and Naraku. He seems overly possessive of you."

Sango was about to hit him once again before I stopped her. "It's alright, Sango. I should have told you guys a long time ago. I can't tell you everything but I will tell you this. Naraku and I dated for a short time. It was during one of the times when Inuyasha and I were on a break."

"Why? Of all the people you could have dated, why him?" Sango asked me, clearly upset that I kept this from her.

My throat began to hurt and I used my fingers to try and lessen the pain. "I didn't know how much of a jerk he was at that time. If I did, I wouldn't have even given him a chance," I whispered. "We can never speak of this again. I don't want him to hurt you guys."

We left for the Mexican restaurant next door and ordered a ton of food. I was pigging out when Inuyasha decided to make a visit. "What is this, moron day?" I asked, with my mouth stuffed full of food, spraying Inuyasha in the process. I grinned.

Inuyasha looked down at his clothes and then at me. "What the hell was that for wench? Do you know how much these clothes cost me? More than you have earned your entire lifetime."

I swallowed the food in my mouth and stood up to face Inuyasha. "I told you never to call me by that name again," I yelled right into his doggy ears, which was the most sensitive part on his body. "You didn't even buy those clothes, Inuyasha. Your daddy did so don't give me that bullshit. I am not in the mood to deal with you."

"What is this that I hear about Sesshoumaru being your partner? Have you gone stupid on me, wench? How could you do this to me?" He whined.

I laughed at his antics. I wasn't going to play his little games. "What I do is none of your business, Inuyasha. You left me remember? So what if it's your half-brother. At least he performs better than you, both off and on the ice."

I wasn't sleeping with Sesshoumaru but Inuyasha didn't know that. I wanted him to get jealous and realize what he had lost. "You wouldn't give it up to me but you gave it to my brother! I knew you were a whore! What does he have that I don't have?"

"A personality," a cold voice spoke from behind me.

Oh no, not now. Why does he have to ruin things? Why does it seem like he's following me? It's not like he cares about me. Or does he? "What are you doing here, Sesshoumaru?" I asked quietly.

"Saving you again, miko," he whispered in my ears for only me to hear. "It seems to me that trouble follows you around."

I huffed. "That is not true," I whispered back, receiving his cold stare. "Well, not all the time."

"I prove my point," he whispered once more before turning his attention back towards Inuyasha, who was at this point seething with anger. "Stop harassing her, half-breed. Kagome is no longer yours."

I stood there in shock. He defended my honor and called me by my true name. Maybe there was hope for Sesshoumaru, yet. "What is it, miko?" he whispered to me.

"You said my name." I whispered back.

His eyes showed confusion. "Is that not your name?"

"Yes, but you always call me miko. It's just strange hearing you say my name." I answered back.

Inuyasha watched us before exploding. "Would you two knock it off already? It's sickening the way you two are acting. Kagome, you never answered my question. Why did you choose Sesshoumaru?"

Before I could speak, Sesshoumaru grabbed my arm and lead me to the exit of the restaurant. "But I'm not finished eating," I told him. I realized that he wasn't going to release me, so I gave up and waved back at my friends. "Goodbye, Sango and Miroku. Call me later, Sango."

The valet drove up with Sesshoumaru's black viper and Sesshoumaru threw me into the passenger's seat. "What is your deal?" I demanded. "Why did you drag me away like that?"

Sesshoumaru sped off. "I was saving you from the half-breed. But I could return you if you want," he replied emotionless.

"No," I told him, staring out the car window. I knew we were heading to the country side by all of the trees and flowers. In the city, you could hardly see them. "Where are we heading?"

"To my home," he calmly replied. "You will stay the night there."

I swirled my head around to look at him. "What did you say? Did I hear you right?"

He pulled up into his driveway and stopped the viper in front of his home. "I intend to make true a comment you made to the half-breed."

I tilted my head to the side in confusion. "What comment?"

He grinned lustfully at me. "When you said that I was better than him both off and on the ice."

"You want to sleep with me?" I squeaked out. "That's not part of the contract, Sesshoumaru. Besides, I'm a..."

He led me out of the car and handed the keys over to a servant. His hand stroked the side of my cheek and he leaned in to whisper in my ear. "Where you about to tell me that your a virgin? I already knew. Aren't you even a little curious to know what its like?" He said, sending shivers up and down my spine.

"Are you serious? It will complicate things between us. We are only supposed to be partners on the ice, not off," I whispered back, too afraid to speak any louder.

"I will not force you, miko. It will be your choice but I will hint that the contract does not start until in the morning. It may give us a chance to get to know each other better," he said, lifting me up in his arms and carrying me into his home.

He took the stairs two at a time and before I knew it, we had already entered his bedroom. He set me down onto the bed and went to lock the door. I knew it was wrong to stay here but at the moment all I could think about was Sesshoumaru's words. The contract does not start until in the morning. I was always curious about what happens during sex and Sesshoumaru looks like he has been with quite a few women.

I mean, come on. With his looks, who wouldn't want to bed him? With his long, silver hair, golden colored eyes, and tall muscular body. The woman would be out of her mind. And he was willing to have sex with me. "What happens once the contract goes into affect?" I asked. I wanted to be sure before I made the biggest mistake of my life.

I noticed him thinking about it and took the opportunity to check out my surroundings. His room was decorated in dark red and there were mirrors all over his room, even on the ceiling. It was then that I realized he was a pervert. He might be vain but I highly doubt that.

He noticed my curiosity of the mirrors and sat down next to me on the bed. "I like to watch the woman I pleasure when she reaches her peak. It is truly a beautiful sight indeed. To answer you other question, I do not know."

"Why sleep with me? I am sure there are plenty of women out there for you."

He smirked at me before inching his face closer to mine. "No other woman has defied me like you have. You amuse me, miko."

Hell with the consequences! I was going to get some from the demon I had a crush on since I first met him, when I dated Inuyasha. And I was curious on how demons actually made love to a woman. And don't tell me that I am the only one who thinks this?

"Will you let me be yours tonight?" he asked me, with lust once more present in his eyes.I nodded, watching him in one of the mirrors strip me and himself out of our clothes. He lips pressed against mine and I moaned as he opened my mouth, to dominate my tongue.

Tonight, I became a woman having lost my virginity to Sesshoumaru. I snuggled into his arms and instantly fell asleep, with him stroking my raven locks. I knew tomorrow we would deal with what happened between us but tonight I was all his.
