Well, it's been awhile since I've updated anything, and I know that I should be working on Sesshomaru's Girl, but I had the sudden urge to write this story. School starts on Monday for me so there's a good chance that I won't be able to update this new story very often, let alone Sesshomaru's Girl but I'm going to do my best.
Prologue
Demons are real. I know because I've seen them all my life. As has my grandfather—and because the ability skips a generation only every other ancestor in my family has as well. I'd been taught from a young age that the demons didn't like to have their presence advertised to those who didn't need to know, and so I was sworn to never speak of their presence out loud to anyone other than my grandfather. My grandfather also taught me all he could about demons, how to fight them, and which demons were which and how dangerous each one was.
Because of the gift skipping generations, my mother and younger brother were unaware of the danger around them, but I made it my duty to protect them from any possible harm. And yet I noticed that even though the demons were supposed to be evil they didn't harm anyone, or at least they didn't seem to do so intentionally. It was the humans that caused the harm and chaos, all of the murders and crimes, while the demons just seemed to stand around and watch the show.
Six months ago my grandfather died, leaving me alone with my secret. I was ok for a while, that is until I found that my grandfather had owed a company quite a bit of money that we couldn't pay back in a million years, and as a last resort my mother had to promise me to the heir of the company. At first I didn't mind, as I knew it was to keep the shrine we lived at from being repossessed and all of our belongings sold off to help pay back the company—but after I'd met the man I was promised to I immediately wanted to run away. I knew demons existed and I was ok with sharing my world with them as long as they didn't hurt anyone purposely, but marrying one? That was an entirely different situation.
