Prompt from Stella Mira's Soundtrack Challenge #7: Ambition

“Return to Inuyasha, miko.”

Surprised, she turned wide eyes to the demon beside her.

“Why?”

He didn’t answer but leveled her with an expressionless gaze. Her heart clenched in pain as she realized he was sending her away—so soon? She looked down, shielding her reaction from him, fingering the haori she borrowed. Her teeth clenched in silent denial. He needed her. Their time in the cave proved it. Honestly, she needed him just as much—a distraction from her own pain at being rejected by Inuyasha.

“No,” she whispered, turning determined eyes on him. “I won’t leave you, Sesshomaru.”
