The Embarrassment

Note: From reviews of the last chapter, I get that some people think this menstrual blood thing is icky. For some reason, I tend to use this quite a lot. The whole predator/blood thing just seems appropriate in my mind. If it bugs you, skip this and 154. 155 will start the regular lemon.

Chapter 153 - The Embarrassment *Metallic Kiss* (Stella's Soundtrack Challenge)

Slowly, Kagome began recognizing landmarks, and she realized he was taking her to the hot spring. When they arrived, he set her on her feet and began to remove her clothing as quickly as he could while trying not to frighten her. He was very thankful he had introduced her to his beast already, because otherwise, she might not have reacted well to his loss of control.

When she was left in just her bra and panties, Sesshoumaru began to kiss his way down her body, running his hands over her curves appreciatively. He caught one nipple between his thumb and forefinger through the silk of her bra while dragging his tongue over the exposed swell of her breast. She could see that his eyes were primarily red now, but gold still swirled within. The taiyoukai struggled for control and finally recovered enough of it to speak to her.

"If you wish for me to stop, Kagome, tell me now." He absolutely ached to touch her, to taste her life's fluid, to bury himself inside her to the hilt until she screamed in ecstasy, but he had to make sure she wanted him because he knew he was moving faster than he usually did. She had been unsure because of the blood, but now he hoped she understood that was what he craved.

"No," Kagome whispered, studying his now primarily golden eyes. He fought his control so hard to make sure she was okay with what was happening, and she appreciated it. When she saw how his shoulders slumped, she realized that he had misinterpreted her response. The miko wrapped her fingers in his hair and pulled his mouth back to her breast. "I don't want you to stop, Sesshoumaru. I want you."

The taiyoukai smirked, relieved, and rose to his feet. Sesshoumaru released full control to his beast now that he was certain it was safe, his eyes bleeding red completely. He quickly stripped off his own clothing before returning to her. He ran one clawed fingertip along the edge of her bra.

"Take it off," he purred.

Kagome quickly unhooked her bra and allowed him to slide it down her arms. He then picked her up and laid her on his moko-moko. He crawled slowly up her body, worshipping her bare flesh, and when he reached her panties, he glanced up at her, seeking permission one last time. She nodded, and he slid them down her legs. He was surprised for a moment when he found no folded up fabric there to catch her blood but shrugged it off. She was from the future, and he didn't doubt there were things, even about this, that he had no knowledge of.

Sesshoumaru spread her thighs wide and began his ascent up her body once more. He caught sight of a bit of white string between her folds, and he frowned, confused.

"What is this?" he asked, watching as Kagome's cheeks burned bright red when she realized what he was referring to.

"A tampon," she whispered. "It's used to absorb the blood."

"What a waste," he said; that deep, thick tone of his making her shiver. "Remove it."

Kagome quickly did what he asked, absolutely mortified that she had forgotten all about it. She let out a squeak of surprise as his tongue found her core, but it turned to a moan as it flicked over her clit. He was incredible with his tongue, his beast even more so than his more civilized half, and she quickly forgot all about her embarrassment.
