The Royal Guard by Chickpea

Though chancy

It was a wild offer that neither he nor the merchant saw coming. Something told him she was up to no good. Sesshomaru peeped at his mistress and frowned. Surly she jests...?

"Do we have a deal?" The demoness haughtily raised her head. Her manicured hands clapped down petite shoulders. "Beautiful, right?" 

The merchant choked. "You're bartering your child!?" 

"Is that a problem?"

"Um, well... hnm." He wished royals weren't always so tricky. Curious, he glanced over at the boy who sent him silent murderous glares. Kid looks way scary.

"Onkokuki, your answer."  

He nervously chuckled. "I think I'll pass."
