            Kagome knew she was courting death, or at the very least abduction, but she didn’t care. She had entirely too much fun seeing her normally stoic fiancé work himself into a rage to stop her excursions. She wasn’t willing to give them up, despite the fact that after he had finished raging he glared at her and lectured.

            Nope. The pros outweighed the cons.

            Of course, his reactions weren’t the only reason for her trips. They were just a bonus. She actually traveled to the slums of the city for a purpose.

            Kagome smiled as she reached her destination, ignoring the leers thrown her way. She opened the door to the herbalists’ shop and stepped in… before immediately stepping back out.

            Unfortunately, her hasty retreat was useless, because the door opened, and out stepped her fiancé.

            He snarled, freezing her in place, and sending the groups of thugs and homeless straggles scurrying.

            Kagome gulped as her glared at her. Why had she ever found his reactions entertaining?

            “Kagome,” he growled lowly, stalking up to her.

            “Sesshomaru! You said my name!” she managed weakly. “That’s, like, a first.”

            His eyes narrowed further, causing her mind to race. She really needed some way to diffuse the situation, but how?

            He stopped right in front of her and opened his mouth.

            She threw her arms around him and buried her face into his chest. “Sorry,” she murmured.

            “Hnn,” he responded placing a hand on her head.

            Kagome inwardly grinned at her successful manipulation.

Sesshomaru would be pathetic if I didn’t know how impossible it is to resist Kagome and her manipulations.
