Whips and Chains

Chapter 14 - Whips and Chains

*Black Birdcage* (Stella's Soundtrack Challenge)

"Well, maybe you prefer something a little less permanent?" Kagome asked with a wicked grin. "I have just the thing." The miko walked over to one of the tables and scooped something up, coming back to sit on Sesshoumaru's abdomen, laughing as he gasped. "Gee, I bet you wish these bruises would start healing, don't you? So, what do you think about these?"

Kagome opened her hand and two nipple clamps tumbled out, attached by a heavy chain that was still wrapped around her thumb. She allowed them to dangle before his eyes for a moment before leaning down over his body. She licked at his small male nipple until it tightened before attaching a clamp, squeezing it tightly. Sesshoumaru grunted in pain, and she laughed again.

"Wish you'd left the needles in yet?" she asked before repeating the process on the other side and getting a similar response. She tugged at the chain, and his back arched, trying to follow the pulling of his nipples, which felt like they were about to be ripped off. She leaned back and found that he once again was aroused. "You really seem to like pain, don't you, you bad boy? Well, maybe a different kind of pain won't be so enjoyable."

Kagome moved lower, sitting over his legs, and leaned down to take his length in her mouth. Sesshoumaru moaned loudly as she licked and sucked on his aching cock, one hand wrapped firmly around his balls. As soon as she felt them begin to tighten, she pulled away, leaving him unfulfilled. The taiyoukai snarled in frustration as the pain of being denied an orgasm seemed to spread through his entire body.

Kagome gave the chain between the clamps a rough tug and smiled. "Now," she said with a smirk, "I'm going to take a nap while you get used to those. Don't go anywhere!"

Kagome was exhausted. Between their prison of rooms having no windows or clocks, and the multiple gaps in her memory, she had no concept of time. Still, her body was tired, so she decided to take advantage of the luxurious bed waiting for her. She climbed in with a content sigh and snuggled down into the soft mattress. She hoped to dream of her prisoner, and what she would do with him when she woke.

Sesshoumaru tried to rest as well, but the throbbing pain in his chest made that impossible. He had no idea nipple clamps could possibly hurt so badly, but they did. Add to that the overwhelming frustration at being so close to climax only to be left unfulfilled, and he was unable to sleep. Instead, he was stuck, alone with his thoughts and worries. He couldn't get the possibility that Kagome might not forgive his actions out of his mind, which left him dwelling on that topic as the miko slept peacefully one room away.

The miko half was still in control when Kagome awoke several hours later, feeling refreshed. After a snack and a visit to the bathroom to freshen up, she headed out to check on Sesshoumaru. Finding him exactly where she left him, nipple clamps intact, she set out to survey her options on how to punish him for his betrayals next.

"What is the point in whips if you're stuck down there?" she mumbled to herself.

Sesshoumaru frowned. His mother had explained to him how the chains worked, and he wondered if Kagome would figure it out. Sadly, he couldn't tell her, or she would realize that he wanted to be whipped, something she couldn't know if he wanted her to actually do it.

Looking around, the miko spotted a chain dangling from the ceiling with a hook hanging from the end. She followed the chain across the ceiling and down the wall to a crank. Curious, she turned the handle, lowering the hook to the floor right where the taiyoukai's feet were chained down. An idea struck her and she lowered it further until she had enough slack to make it reach his hands. The chains were obviously magic. She could feel it, and she wondered if it was meant to switch so that she could stand him up.

She slipped the hook under the chain between his wrists and instantly it released from the floor. With a smirk, Kagome returned to the crank and began reeling Sesshoumaru into an upright position. About halfway up the taiyoukai gained his footing and lowered his arms from over his head for the first time in what felt like days. It wasn't long, though, before her turning the crank pulled them back up, higher than before. She didn't stop until he was barely balancing on his toes, his gorgeous, battered body stretching to keep him from hanging by his wrists.

Edax - greedy, gluttonus, rapacious, voracious (Stella's Latin Challenge)

Kagome flipped the lock on the crank, making sure it wouldn't release, and approached the strung-up taiyoukai. He looked so delicious like that, just awaiting her punishment. She shoved his back, and he lost his balance, swinging slightly until he could get back on his toes.

"Perfect," she purred, grabbing his ass tightly, allowing her nails to dig into his skin.

She took the time to study him in this new position, flipping his length of hair over one shoulder to expose his back to her completely. The bruises on his ribs wrapped around the back somewhat, but besides that, his backside was pristine, just awaiting her work. His pale skin seemed to shimmer in the hard light of the room, and she picked up her new toys to show him.

"Did you know there are seven different whips in this room?" she asked. "You're lucky. I'm only going to use two. This one," she held up a black leather whip with a large number of thin tails, a knot tied at the end of each strand. "And then this one. I think it might hurt a little more," she said with a grin while showing him another with wider bands of leather, studded with sharp metal spikes.

Sesshoumaru knew that the second whip would break the skin, and he wondered how many lashes she would be able to deliver before his blood drew her in. He was also concerned about what would happen once she passed out. She would likely be standing up, and he worried that she would be injured when she fell to the hard stone floor. If only he could catch her, but he knew the chains would not release until she had regained full control, and he doubted that would happen so soon. He had gotten the impression that this could be a long process and that he should settle in for the duration.

He was already hard with anticipation, greedily awaiting the pain, and as Kagome circled his body, she trailed the tails of the first whip over his erection, making him groan in pleasure. He needed her touch, even if it was through an instrument of torture, and he was going to enjoy every moment of this. The miko walked around him several more times, touching him softly with the dangling bits of leather.

Finally, she stopped behind him and swung the whip, landing the tails across the plains of his back. He jumped in surprise at the pain and dangled for a moment from his wrists before regaining his balance. His arms already ached, and he knew that it would only get worse as time went on. She lashed out again, this time hitting his lower back and that perfectly toned ass of his, and the taiyoukai's eyes widened. He shifted the way he was supporting his weight as best his could, trying to close his legs. The last thing he wanted was for her to whip his balls!

Kagome watched his awkward movements with curiosity until she realized what he was trying to do. With a wicked smirk, she walked around to his front and whipped his upper body. Sesshoumaru hissed as pain bloomed in the bruises on his chest and abdomen. She swung again, this time hitting his lower abdomen. The taiyoukai mentally cursed. What came next was sure to hurt worse than anything she had ever done before. When the miko swung the whip, the crack of leather hitting skin filled the room as it made contact with his cock and balls.

"Bitch," Sesshoumaru muttered through gritted teeth. He hung from his arms, his feet leaving the floor as his knees bent, trying to curl his body into a ball. Nausea exploded in his stomach, and he coughed in pain.

Amused, Kagome repeated the action, getting just as gratifying of a response the second time around. "Aww, does that hurt?" she asked, reaching out to touch him. The taiyoukai jerked away from her hand, and the miko smirked. Finally, it seemed, he had learned that her touch was dangerous. She closed the distance, wrapping her hand around his hard length, stroking him gently. She caressed his sore testicles for a moment before going back to his glorious cock.

"It really is a pity I only got to experience this once," she said softly. "You were so good. I would have let you fuck me every night. We could have done it on every surface of the house. I would have let you screw me on the counter where I 'accidently' let you see my panties. We could have tried out the entire kama sutra on the kitchen table. We could have fucked like rabbits until Inuyasha was begging us to stop, if things had been different." Sesshoumaru moaned softly at the pleasure of her hand stroking him as she spoke quietly, calmly, about what might have been. "But you had to be a filthy whore," she suddenly growled, grasping his balls in a viciously tight grip.

Her anger renewed, Kagome returned to his back and began to whip him in earnest. "You. Unleashed. This. Curse. On. Me." she yelled, punctuating every word with a lash of the whip, using every ounce of her strength. "And. You. Didn't. Even. Care!"

When she was finished, Sesshoumaru hung from his arms, panting for breath. If she had gone on much longer, he might have climaxed right there from the pain alone. The burning sting of the lashes on his back was exquisite. He jumped at the feeling of her hand running over the raised, angry, red welts and moments later, he heard the clatter of the whip falling to the floor. He heard the scrape of metal as she picked up the studded whip from the table.

*False Confession* (Stella's Soundtrack Challenge)

Kagome walked around to see his face once more and smiled sweetly at him, though her eyes still held nothing but darkness and pain. "Tell me, Sesshoumaru, how many were there?"

The taiyoukai was silent as he thought about it. He honestly had no idea how many different women he slept with. He went out drinking every single evening and had gone home with a different girl most nights. There could be dozens of them, and he couldn't even remember their faces. He was too drunk and cared too little to bother.

"How many?" Kagome suddenly screamed, making Sesshoumaru jump.

"I don't know," he replied honestly.

"I don't believe you. I'd think a pig like you would have kept track of your conquests."

The miko ran the studded whip across his abdomen, allowing the tails to slip over his erection, and the taiyoukai winced. If she hit him in the balls with that whip, he was likely to lose them. He knew the metal would tear at his skin, and he only hoped she would return to his back. He mentally gave thanks to the gods when she walked around to his back again. This kind of pain he could take and enjoy, but the blinding pain that came with an injured testicle was something he couldn't find pleasure in.

"Count the lashes," she demanded before swinging the heavier whip at his back.

Sesshoumaru almost choked on his gasp at the surprisingly vivid pain. He hadn't expected it to be so powerful, and his cock throbbed madly. "One," he whispered.

"Louder!" she screamed, hitting him again.

"Two," he forced out as loudly as he could manage.

Ligurio - to lick, lick up, to gloat over, long for (Stella's Latin Challenge)

Sesshoumaru's count had already made it to nine. He could feel the blood running down his chest, and he was surprised that she was able to resist the pull for so long. She lashed out again, and then he heard the whip clatter to the stone floor. In seconds, she was on his back, licking the blood pouring from the many wounds. Minutes passed as she cleaned him of all she could reach, whining when she couldn't get at the blood higher on his shoulders. He moaned in pleasure as her tongue dug into his fresh wounds, searching for more and more blood.

Sesshoumaru knew the second she lost consciousness. She was suddenly no longer touching him. and he heard her hit the floor. Concerned, the taiyoukai scooted on his toes, turning until he could see her laid out on the cold stone. Thankfully, she crumpled rather than simply dropped, and so her head hadn't hit the floor. She might be a little sore when she awoke, but she would be okay.

Now, there was nothing to do but wait, and he figured he had a long one ahead of him. It seemed as though the more of his blood she consumed the longer she was unconscious. Hopefully, the real Kagome would be in control when she awoke, and she would get him down. His wrists and shoulders ached, and if she were the one to lower him, he might get to put his arms down for a while before he returned to his chained position on the floor.

The miko half would likely be confused when she found him in a different position than she left him in, but he didn't care. He was incredibly uncomfortable, and he hoped Kagome wouldn't be out for too terribly long. He ached to talk to her, explain his actions, and apologize for betraying her. He needed to know if she could forgive him, but that question could not be fully answered until the two halves of Kagome became one.
