unkept promises- Inuyasha x reader

Unhappy customers

(Past)

The dog demon awoke suddenly to shouting coming from outside his window. He dragged himself from underneath the covers to see what the commotion was about. You stood, arms crossed with a serious expression cast upon your face.

He slumped against the window to see what this was all about. "You never said anything about being under your  serve!"

Those (e/c) pupils flashed with annoyance and if he wasn't mistaken a bit of a glow too. "You do have ears yes? I stated all of this at the time of our agreement. You want to keep your business running you pay up."

The angry man spat at your feet. "You really are a witch. I should be able to cut the deal when I see fit."

Another man nodded in agreement, "yeah you are a selfish wench." You gritted your teeth trying to handle this calmly.

You sighed, "it is not in my abilities to revoke such magic. I can't change how I was made-"

"I don't care if it's how you were made! You let me walk out of here with the deal ended."

Inuyasha was getting mad too but at the men. Why not blast them? Or get angry? "So you mean to tell me you wish to break what you have promised?"

"Yes! Are you deaf?!"

A orange flame engulfed your entire hand. Both of the men backed away from the sight. "Then I have no choice but to meet my end when you refuse the plan."

You felt it before you saw it, a fist headed your way. Connecting to your nose, sending you falling on your butt. Blood pooling from your nostrils, quickly staining the concrete ground. At least it wasn't broken, you would rather not have any broken bones.

"You deserved that bitch, you might be some powerful demon but you raise a hand and you'll regret it."

"I told you I cannot revoke the contract!"

The smaller man behind him cheered him on as he pulled back his fist again. "Revoke this."

You shielded your face as his knuckles came flying but the pain never hit you. Inuyasha had caught the dude's fist in his fingers. "Whatcha think ya doin there bud? Didn't anyone tell you but to hit a woman?"

The man scowled. "Woman? That demon is nothing but a walking disaster, all she does is ruin people's lives."

Inuyasha growled. "You mean doing what she was asked by people like you."

The man used his other hand to smack the dog down but he doged and grabbed onto his elbow. Pinning it behind his back far enough until an audible pop sounded. "Ahhh!"

He dropped to the ground as a red, hot searing pain shot through his arm. "What the hell is wrong with you half-demon?!"

Inuyasha gave a taunting smirk, "I should be asking you that." Then his smirk turned to a frown, "especially since you can't keep to what your owed since it's suddenly an inconvenience to you."

The man's eyes watered and was about to say more until Inuyasha cut him off. "Get lost."

The two listened and ran with their tails inbetween their legs. He spun around to you and offered a hand to help you. You accepted it gratefully, using a hankicheif to wipe the dried blood away.

"Thank you."

He shrugged. "No problem, hey how come you didn't defend yourself?"

You rearranged your hair, answering his question quite distantly. "I can't attack without reasoning."

He exhaled heavily, "pretty sure him hitting you and making you bleed is a good one."

"Why do you care?" You asked annoyed.

"Why don't you care?" He shot back.

You avoided his gaze. "There was no need to step in like that. I'd have dealt with it."

He growled at you. "If I hadn't he would have beaten you to a bloody pulp or killed you."

"It doesn't matter."

He was taken aback, "doesn't matter? Do you want to die or something?!"

You locked onto his eyes as your head snapped up at his sentence. Realization dawned on him, "no way...you actually want to-"

"Enough! Either you want this deal to happen and leave or you can go right now!" You left him standing there as you retreated to your chambers.

Inuyasha sighed and knew he had struck a nerve. A big one at that apparently.
