Prompt from Stella Mira’s Soundtrack Challenge #12: Hallucinations

All through the night as he rested in the last place he had seen the miko, Sesshomaru didn’t exactly dream but hallucinated. His mind recalled Akahito’s words and heard himself give a completely different answer than he had in reality.

“You want her?” Akahito had asked him.

“She is mine.”

“Really? What would you do to have her in your arms at this moment? What would you sacrifice? What price would you pay to keep her by your side?”

In reality, he hadn’t answered. Now, alone where no one could hear him, he said, “Anything. Everything.”

And it was true.
