The Caress

Chapter 95 - The Caress *Seventh Heaven* (Stella's Soundtrack Challenge)

Sesshoumaru's eyes widened as he took in the sight of her. She had on tiny little shorts that ended several inches higher than the skirt he had grown accustomed to seeing her in during the warmer months. Her shirt had no sleeves, only tiny strings as straps over her shoulders to hold it up, not that it needed help staying up, as it was skintight. It clung to her breasts and abdomen, what of it the thing covered at least. It seemed to be nearly three inches too short, exposing her midriff to his hungry eyes. He had never seen something so arousing in all his years, and the taiyoukai groaned aloud as his cock throbbed painfully.

Finally entering the room and tossing her dirty clothes on top of her bag in the corner, Kagome spared Sesshomaru a glance, grinning at his response. She approached him slowly, her smile widening as she grew closer. He looked dazed, and her confidence grew at the realization that she had struck him not only speechless, but motionless as well.

"You okay?" she asked playfully, noting his knee was once again bent in his usual fashion, though this time it was more than likely an attempt to hide his arousal. She mentally laughed. Why hide what she had already spotted? It was a compliment, really, and knowing that she so easily turned him on only added to her strength and determination. She was going to explore every inch of skin he bared for her, first with her hands, and then quite possibly with her tongue. By the time she was done, he would be so sexually frustrated he would be begging her for more.

"Perfect," he managed to get out. He didn't know what was wrong with him. He wasn't some naive virgin. He had seen plenty of naked women, and yet the sight of an only partially clothed Kagome damn near struck him dumb. This was so different from any other intimate situation he had been involved in though. This was the woman he loved, the woman he desired as his mate. This had to go right, or he could lose everything.

Sesshoumaru had no idea what she had in mind, or what she truly wanted from him. She had only expressed a desire to touch him, but the way she was looking at him right then made him unsure that was all she intended. She looked ready to eat him alive, and he was more than willing to let her.

Kagome drew on every bit of strength she had inside and forced herself to approach. This was her idea, and she was going to enjoy it. "You ready?" She couldn't believe the look on his face as he nodded. He looked like anything but the predator he was. The miko finally reached the edge of the bed and knelt on the mattress before arranging herself beside the taiyoukai, lying on her side facing him with one arm bent and holding up her head.

Her free hand reached for him, and she had to fight to keep it from shaking visibly. Deciding this was no time for hesitation, she laid her palm in the center of his chest. The miko smiled as she felt him sigh. Unable to resist, she slowly began the pleasurable task of tracing each line of muscle definition.

Sesshoumaru's head fell back, his eyes falling closed, as he soaked in the feeling of her gentle touch. Her hand was so soft, and he couldn't help but imagine her silky skin caressing him in other, more intimate locations. He was in heaven, so entranced in the feeling that he failed to notice as he began to release a low growl. His attention was caught when the miko began to giggle. The taiyoukai's eyes popped open, and he was instantly staring at her face, trying to determine what she found so amusing.

"You're purring," she said softly. "Does it really feel that good?"

"To have the woman I desire caressing my bare skin? No, it does not feel good. It feels exquisite, and I don’t want it to end."

Kagome sighed and shifted, laying her head on his chest while her fingers continued to slide along his abdomen. "This is nice," she whispered. "You have to be uncomfortable though, huh?"

Sesshoumaru raised a brow at her in question, making her giggle once more. "Uncomfortable?"

She locked eyes with his before purposely looking down his body to stop at his groin before focusing on his face again. "Uncomfortable," she repeated.

The taiyoukai smirked. "I have lived through much worse," he confessed. And he had. After everything he had suffered as Prince, being painfully aroused was nothing he couldn't handle.
