Standing so near Sesshomaru, feeling his solid strength up close, Kagome was reminded of her new found feelings for him. She was conflicted. What were her true feelings for this proud lord? She craved to be near him, hurt when he tried to push her away. What did that mean?

“Impressive,” conceded Akahito, referring to Sesshomaru’s abilities.

“Hn.”

All three gazed around them, wary, searching for the enemy, for the trap they might have already sprung.

Nothing happened.

“Why hasn’t anything happened yet?” Kagome murmured. “Does she want us to go inside?”

“That appears to be the case,” answered Akahito.
