As you can probably tell, this story will be wrapping up fairly quickly. There is probably one more chapter (two if I stretch it), then an epilog. And yes there will be sex. I’m glad everyone has enjoyed this. I can’t believe that the little idea I’ve had in my head for so long could have grown into such a long story. Enjoy, and keep those awesome reviews coming.
Chapter 15
Falling to her knees, Jewel lay across Hiei’s chest. Later, Kurama would be grateful for that since Jewel didn’t see him transform to his Youko form, draw his rose whip and viciously kill the demon that had attacked her. The moment the demon fell, Kurama reached for Jewel. “Baby, are you alright? Did they hurt you?”
Near tears, Jewel shook her head. “No Poppy, I’m fine, but Daddy’s hurt.”
Together they knelt beside Hiei. Gathering the fire demon in his arms, Kurama called to him. “Hiei! Come on Fire-Fly, wake up.”
Jewel’s lip quivered as she looked at Kurama. “Is he dead?”
Checking the blast wound on Hiei’s chest, Kurama tried not to show how worried he was. “No Jewel, but he’s hurt pretty bad. We need to get him back to the fortress so the healers can make him better.”
Before Kurama could lift Hiei in his arms, Jewel held her hands over the wound. Kurama paused as he felt Jewel raise her youki. Realizing she was attempting to heal Hiei’s wound, and it seemed to be working, Kurama watched in amazement. When Jewel’s youki wavered, Kurama placed a hand over hers to give her more strength.
A minute passed, then two and Hiei’s wound slowly healed. When Kurama felt Hiei’s energy stabilize, he wrapped his fingers around jewel’s hand. “That’s enough Jewel. He’s doing much better thanks to you. Now, let’s get him home.”
Lifting Hiei in his arms, Kurama nodded for Jewel to follow. Jewel stayed close to Kurama’s side as they hurried to the fortress. When the fortress was in sight, Kurama looked down at her. “Jewel, run ahead to the fortress and tell Mukuro what happened.”
Wanting to help her father, Jewel flitted to the fortress. When Kurama reached the entrance, two guards tried to take Hiei from him. Both demons stepped back in fear when the Youko growled at them. Entering the fortress, Kurama saw Jewel wave him up the stairs. Following her lead, Kurama carried Hiei to his room. As Kurama placed him on the bed, Jewel crawled up on Hiei’s other side to hold his hand.
A moment later Mukuro appeared in the doorway with another demon. “Kurama, this is Rukia, one of my healers. Step aside and let her check on Hiei.”
Nodding, Kurama would have stepped back, but Hiei’s hand suddenly grabbed his wrist. Leaning down, Kurama saw that Hiei hadn’t actually woken so he whispered. “It’s alright Fire-Fly. Let Mukuro’s healer check on you.”
When Hiei’s fingers relaxed but didn’t release him, Kurama straightened and moved toward the head of the bed. Even though Hiei still held his wrist, this allowed the healer Rukia to check his wound. Rukia worked on Hiei for only a few minutes before she looked across the bed at Jewel. “Are you the one that healed him?”
Nervously, Jewel nodded. “Yes Ma’am.”
Rukia’s brow rose in curiosity. “I thought that felt like the work of a Koorime. You did very well for one so young. Has someone been training you?”
Kurama could see Jewel’s happiness at Rukia’s compliment. “Not really. I’ve just watched my Aunt Yukina heal and she’s told me how it’s done. Is my Daddy going to be alright?”
Giving Jewel a little smile, Rukia nodded. “Yes Miss Jewel, Lord Hiei is going to be just fine. He should rest a while though so don’t let him overdo it.”
Moving from the bed, Rukia bowed to Kurama and then Mukuro before leaving the room. After checking to see that Hiei really was alright, Kurama looked at Mukuro. “I should probably go now.”
Mukuro grunted. “Your family needs you Kurama. You should stay with them.”
Not giving Kurama a chance to refuse, Mukuro turned and left, closing the door firmly behind her. Turning back to the bed, Kurama saw Jewel’s eyes begin to droop. Sitting on the edge of the bed, with Hiei still holding one wrist, Kurama reached out with his free hand to stroke Jewel’s hair. “Rukia’s right Jewel, you did an excellent job helping Hiei. You must be tired though from using so much energy. Why don’t you lay next to Daddy and get some rest?”
Too tired to argue, Jewel settled next to Hiei with her head on his shoulder. “You’ll stay with us, won’t you Poppy?”
Still stroking her hair, Kurama nodded. “I’ll be right here Baby.”
Kurama sat for over an hour watching over Hiei and Jewel before one of them stirred. Hiei’s fingers flexed around Kurama’s wrist just moments before his eyes fluttered open. “Kurama? Jewel!”
Taking his hand from Jewel’s hair, Kurama used it to keep Hiei down on the bed. “She’s alright Hiei. Look, she’s right beside you.”
Moving the arm Jewel was half laying on, Hiei pulled her closer. When questioning ruby eyes turned to him, Kurama smiled. “We’re all fine Hiei. You were the only one hurt. You would have been proud of our daughter Hiei. She used her youki to heal your wound so we could get you safely back to the fortress.”
Looking down at Jewel, Hiei nodded. “I could feel her… and you. Mukuro might be right about her taking more after Yukina than me. We may have to rethink her training Fox.”
Thrilled at being included in Hiei’s comment about Jewel’s training, Kurama smiled. Before he could say anything though, Jewel stirred. “Daddy, are you alright?”
Brushing her hair back from her face, Hiei whispered. “I’m fine Little One. Thanks to you I hear.”
When Jewel sat up, Hiei tried to do the same. Knowing it was futile to argue with the fire demon, Kurama slipped and arm behind his shoulders to help. “Jewel, get those pillows and put them behind him.”
When Hiei was sitting up against the pillows, Jewel looked at him sadly. “I’m so sorry Daddy. It’s my fault that you got hurt.”
Hiei didn’t get a chance to respond before Kurama began scolding his kit. “I’m glad you realize that Jewel. What you did today was very irresponsible. Hiei and I have both explained the importance of obeying our rules, especially here in Makai. Now you see that they are not only for your safety, but for ours as well.”
Though he felt bad for Jewel, Hiei knew this was a lesson she needed to learn and didn’t interrupt the Youko. “I know you didn’t mean for Hiei to get hurt, but I hope you realize that it could have been far worse. One of us could have been killed because of your carelessness.”
Jewel’s voice quivered as she answered. “I know Poppy, and I’m really sorry. Please don’t be mad at me.”
Taking a deep breath, Kurama was more calm as he reached out to caress her cheek. “I’m not really mad at you Sweetheart. It’s just that Hiei and I love you so much, we don’t ever want anything to happen to you.”
Before either Kurama or Hiei could react, Jewel pulled them both close for a hug. “I love you too, and I’m so happy to have my Poppy and Daddy together again.”
Over Jewel’s head, Kurama and Hiei’s eyes met. Awkwardly, Kurama pulled away from the hug. Not giving the Youko a chance to speak, Hiei looked down at Jewel. “Jewel, I want you to go downstairs with Mukuro. Since you missed dinner, have cook fix you something to eat.”
With a pout, Jewel almost whined. “But I want to stay here with you and Poppy.”
Frowning, Kurama growled. “Jewel! Do as your father says!”
Seeing Jewel’s big green eyes widen at Kurama’s tone, Hiei explained. “Jewel, Kurama and I need to talk… alone. After you eat, you can either stay with Mukuro or play in your room until we’re done. Then you can come back and join us.”
With the promise of being able to come back, Jewel wisely chose to obey her parents. “Poppy, you’ll still be here when I get back, won’t you?”
Seeing no contraindication from Hiei, Kurama nodded. “I would never leave you without saying goodbye. Now, enjoy your dinner and we’ll see you in a little while.”
Jewel gave them each a quick kiss before hopping off the bed and leaving the room. Once they were alone, Kurama tried to rise from the bed, but found himself held firmly by Hiei’s hand on his wrist. Looking at Hiei, Kurama sighed. “I know I’m not supposed to be here, but I just couldn’t stay away from her any longer.”
Hiei nodded. “I know Fox. She’s needed you too. I had hoped that after she got to see you, she’d settle down, but if anything it’s made her worse.”
Realizing what Hiei was saying, Kurama smirked. “You let me in, didn’t you? I should have known I couldn’t sneak past you Hiei. I thought it was odd that you didn’t have wards or traps around her open window.”
Hiei sighed. “I sensed someone watching Fox and thought it was you, but it was almost two weeks before I could confirm it.”
Hiding his pain that Hiei knew he was there, yet didn’t want to see him, Kurama looked away. “I know you’re mad at me Hiei, and you have every right to be. I’m sorry. I hope someday you can forgive me.”
Feeling his own pain at Kurama’s actions, Hiei too looked away. “The way I acted in the beginning, I don’t blame you for keeping her from me. But you’ve had five years to tell me since. Why the hell didn’t you find a way to tell me?”
Hiei was surprised to see pain in Kurama’s golden eyes. “How could I Hiei? I knew you would do exactly what you did when you found out. You took her Hiei. You took my baby away from me.”
Chest heaving with emotion, Kurama pulled his wrist free, stood and walked over to the window. Attempting to regain his composure, Kurama took several deep breaths before he continued. “Even though I kept her a secret from you Hiei, I never kept her from you. You on the other hand took her and kept her from me. With every passing day my fear grew that you might never let me see her again.”
Startled by Kurama’s heart wrenching admission, Hiei gave a whispered “Kurama…”, but was prevented from saying more when there was a knock on the door. Not wanting to be caught crying, Kurama attempted to brush the tears from his eyes. When he was unsuccessful, he quickly changed to his human form.
Annoyed at the interruption, Hiei shouted. “What do you want?”
The door opened to reveal Mukuro with Jewel clutching tightly to her hand. “I realize you two wanted to be alone, but Miss Jewel here couldn’t eat. She was worried that Hiei should eat after being wounded.”
Drawing Jewel with her, Mukuro stepped just inside the doorway. With a nod from the demon lord, a maid pushed in a cart laden with food. No one spoke as the maid set the food out on the table, then bowed and removed the cart. Feeling the tension between the redhead and her heir, Mukuro sighed. “Alright Jewel, let’s leave your parents alone.”
When Mukuro would have lead Jewel from the room, Hiei stopped her. “Mukuro wait. Jewel, can stay and eat with us. In half an hour send Kendra to get her though. She can give Jewel her bath and get her ready for bed while we finish talking.”
Jewel’s face lit up at the prospect of staying with her parents. When Kurama leaned down and held out his arm, Jewel rushed into them. Even with Kurama’s back to him, Hiei could sense the redhead’s need to hold his kit. Mukuro tactfully left the room as Hiei rose from the bed and went to the table. Joining him, Kurama settled Jewel on his lap. Looking around, Hiei would have risen to get a stool from the foot of the bed, but Kurama stopped him. “It’s alright Hiei, she’s fine here with me.”
Since the table was only set for two, Hiei nodded and retook his seat. For the next half hour Hiei watched Kurama and Jewel as they ate. He didn’t fail to notice that Kurama ate very little even though there was plenty of food. Jewel carried most of the conversation, with only occasional input from her parents.
Half an hour later, when Kendra knocked on the door, Jewel reluctantly kissed them before going with the housekeeper. Once they were alone, Hiei turned to Kurama. “You barely touched your food Fox.”
Setting his napkin on the table, Kurama shrugged. “I’m not very hungry.”
With a sigh, Hiei pushed back from the table, but didn’t rise. “Kurama, you have got to know that I never had any intention of keeping Jewel from you forever. Between work and her training, I guess I lost track of how long we’d been gone.”
Relief washed over Kurama at Hiei’s words. “Right after you left, I told Mother and the others that you just needed time to bond with your daughter. As the days turned to weeks and then a month, it got harder and harder to convince anyone, even myself, that you’d bring her back.”
The tension in the room seemed to lift with Hiei’s next surprised question. “You told Shiori?”
Smiling, Kurama nodded. “After the fight in the park, when she saw me change to my Youko form, I didn’t have much choice but to tell her we were demons. It wasn’t until I had to explain why I didn’t stop you from taking Jewel though that she found out you were her father. Funny thing is, I thought she would be horrified. Instead, I think she was disappointed that she wasn’t there while I was pregnant.”
Kurama’s smile faded however, when Hiei tensed at the word ‘pregnant’. “I’ve figured out that she must have conceived during mating season. What I don’t understand is why you didn’t kill me for raping you?”
Stunned, Kurama looked at him. “Hiei, you didn’t rape me.”
Angrily, Hiei stood and paced the room. “How the hell can you say it wasn’t rape? I went to Reikai Kurama. I read all about how a young, unmated male will resort to rape to satisfy his desire to rut. We’ve talked about Jewel’s sire too, remember? You were taken without preparation, hell you weren’t even kissed.”
Somehow Kurama knew that no matter what he said, Hiei wouldn’t believe him. Rising from the table, he grabbed Hiei by the arm. Hiei had not choice but to stop and look at Kurama. “That may be true Hiei, but that doesn’t make it rape. Since you obviously don’t believe me, why don’t you see for yourself?”
Reaching up, Kurama brushed gentle fingers over the Jagon, causing it to flutter open. “Damn it Kurama, I will not turn the Jagon on you!”
When Hiei attempted to pull away, Kurama placed both hands on his shoulders preventing him from moving away. “I’m not some weak human Hiei, I’m an S class demon. If I open myself to the Jagon, it shouldn’t harm me.”
Seeing that Kurama was determined, and wanting to see the truth for himself, Hiei finally relented. Placing his hands on Kurama’s sides, so he could better assess if he went too far, Hiei slowly allowed the Jagon to open and focus on the green eyes before him.
Kurama must have focused his memory right on that day, because the first thing Hiei saw, was the redhead’s surprise when he was grabbed and slammed against the wall. Noticing his own disheveled look and glazed over eyes, he saw Kurama take a defensive posture as Hiei ripped away his bandages and lick at his wounds. Kurama became even more guarded when Hiei leaned in to nip at his collar bone.
Only when Hiei pressed their bodies together did Kurama finally relax. Hiei couldn’t believe it when Kurama actually moaned and began to undress him or when he grabbed the lotion as they tumbled to the floor. For a moment it looked like Kurama would claim dominance as he stripped Hiei and attempted to prepare him. That changed however when Hiei tore off Kurama’s clothes. Anger filled him as he saw Kurama hasten to stroke lotion on him before being forced to his knees and viciously taken.
Hiei almost tore himself from Kurama’s mind when he heard the redhead’s scream. Kurama’s mind however wouldn’t release him, and Hiei watched in amazement as cries of pain suddenly became cries of pleasure. Hiei felt his body harden as he saw himself take Kurama again and again. His passion only intensified as Kurama’s sexy voice pleaded for more.
When Kurama lay exhausted beneath him, Hiei thought it was over. Amazingly though, he had only just begun. Hiei then watched as Kurama changed to his Youko form, then willingly offer himself to the horny fire demon. No matter what Hiei wanted, the Youko eagerly gave it, then begged for more. By the time morning came, Hiei lost count of how many times he’d taken his partner. The room was in shambles and Kurama now lay unconscious on the bed. Hiei could barely walk as he put on his pants and disappeared out the window.
As gently as he could, Hiei pulled himself from Kurama’s mind. Trembling slightly, Kurama rested his head on Hiei’s shoulder and whispered. “It wasn’t rape Hiei. I didn’t know what got in to you that night, but not once did I think to deny you.”
For a moment, Hiei just stood there holding Kurama against him as he regained his composure. When Kurama’s trembling began to subside, Hiei whispered. “Damn it Fox, why would you allow me to do that to you?”
From his shoulder, Kurama whispered. “Because I wanted you Hiei… I always have.”
Though Kurama’s trembling had stopped and his breathing had returned to normal, neither demon seemed in any hurry to release the other. “Kurama, that was six years ago. Mating season happens every year.”
Hiei felt Kurama smile against his shoulder. “Yes Hiei, it does, and every year you come to me. You asked me about Jewel’s father once, and I told you we were still lovers. Even though it was only once a year, it was better than having no lover at all.”
Closing his eyes, Hiei was almost afraid to ask his next question. “So, you and Touya…?”
Glad to have the truth out, Kurama shook his head. “No Hiei, never. You have been my only lover. When it came time to begin Jewel’s training, I considered Yukina first. Yukina is passive though, and I wanted our daughter to be able to defend herself if need be. Touya is an ice master, therefore the logical choice to train Jewel to use her ice powers.”
Suddenly remembering Yukina, Hiei looked down at Kurama. “How did Yukina know I was her brother? Did you tell her?”
Meeting Hiei’s gaze, Kurama shook his head. “No Hiei, I didn’t. I suppose you could say Jewel inadvertently did. Yukina sensed then that Jewel was an ice apparition when I got so cold just before she was born. Then one day when Yukina was babysitting, the pendant I used to suppress Jewel’s powers got dirty. Yukina took it off to clean it and Jewel began to cry. When she saw the tear gems she knew her brother was Jewel’s father.”
Almost before Kurama spoke, Hiei put the last piece of the puzzle together. “When Yukina took all the kids swimming last year, she saw Jewel wearing your tear gem. When Jewel told her that Daddy Hiei gave it to her, Yukina figured out you were her brother.”
The truth was now out and Kurama knew Hiei had a lot to think about. Removing his arms from Hiei’s neck, Kurama stepped out of his embrace. “Thank you for listening Hiei. I want you to know that I won’t fight you for Jewel. I do however hope that you can find it in your heart to forgive me.”
Hiding the pain Hiei’s silence caused, Kurama turned away. “I’m going to go say goodnight to Jewel before I leave. I won’t interfere in your time with her any more Hiei. I’ll going back to the Ningenkai tomorrow, and I need to let her know not to watch for me. When you’re ready to let me see her again, you know where to find me.”
Without looking back, Kurama left Hiei’s room. Drawing a deep breath for strength, Kurama knocked and then let himself into Jewel’s room. Jewel looked up from the book she was reading and beamed. “Poppy! You and Daddy took so long I thought you’d forgotten me.”
Sitting beside her on the bed, Kurama smiled. “Like I could ever forget about you my Jewel. I just came to give you a kiss goodnight. I also wanted to tell you…”
When the door behind him opened, Kurama paused and watched Jewel smile. “Daddy! It’s been too long since you and Poppy tucked me in together.”
Moving to the other side of the bed, Hiei sat down. “Yes Little One, it has.”
Before Jewel could respond, Hiei turned to Kurama. “Fox, isn’t there some ningen holiday coming up?”
Watching Jewel frown, Kurama’s heart began to race hopefully. “Yes, Christmas is next week.”
Jewel’s eyes sparkled excitedly, but she remained silent, waiting to see what Hiei was thinking. “Jewel, I’m going to be tied up on a big project for the next two weeks and I won’t be able to spend much time with you. It might be a good idea if you and Kurama went to visit Shiori… you know… for Christmas.”
A huge smile lit Jewel’s face as she threw herself at Hiei. “Oh Daddy, that would be wonderful! I’ll get to see Grandma, and Grandpa and everyone!”
Over her head, Kurama’s wide green eyes stared at Hiei in disbelief. Hiei’s next words surprised Kurama even more. “Since you’ll be taking her in the morning anyway Fox, you might as well stay here tonight.”
Not wanting to read too much into Hiei’s invitation, Kurama smiled at Jewel. “What do you think Sweetheart? Can I stay with you tonight?”
As Hiei looked away to hide his disappointment, Jewel giggled. “You can stay with me forever if you want Poppy.”
Kissing Jewel’s cheek, Hiei sighed. “I’ll see you both in the morning then.”
When he would have risen from the bed, Jewel grabbed his arm and frowned. “Daddy, you didn’t kiss Poppy goodnight.”
When Kurama would have told Jewel it wasn’t necessary, he was suddenly silenced by Hiei’s hand on the back of his neck. “We can’t have that now, can we?”
Kurama held his breath as Hiei leaned closer. Though Hiei’s kiss only landed on his cheek, it lingered and felt warm and inviting. Wanting Hiei to know his kiss was not unwelcome, Kurama sighed and leaned into the caress. Though the exchange was brief, it seemed to satisfy Jewel and she smiled. With a whispered “Goodnight”, Hiei left the room.
Once they were alone, Kurama took off his shirt and shoes and crawled in beside Jewel. As soon as he’d turned out the light, Jewel cuddled against his side. “Poppy, why are you sleeping with me instead of Daddy? I thought everything was alright now.”
Stroking Jewel’s hair, Kurama was almost as confused as Jewel. “We’re getting there Sweetheart. I don’t think Hiei’s mad at me any more, but I’m not sure he’s forgiven me yet. For now, let’s just be happy that he’s going to let you come home for Christmas.”
Nodding, Jewel snuggled closer to Kurama and quickly fell asleep. Kurama however remained awake for some time, unable to sleep as he thought about Hiei. Across the hall, Hiei had a similar problem. Standing at the window, staring out into the night, Hiei’s thoughts were on the fox that was across the hall, just out of his reach.
