Prologue

They say that when the Kamis saw a proud, arrogant youkai who loved only himself, they created a powerful necklace for him for they knew his power would be used against their favorite creations: the humans.

Then they saw a young miko, the complete opposite of the youkai: humble, kind, and capable of unconditional love.

They believed the young woman capable of making the youkai feel love. The Kamis' hope only grew when the youkai saved and continued to protect a little girl.

So the Kamis put their plan into action. The necklace would not only subjugate the youkai, but also open the miko's and youkai's thoughts and emotions to each other…

"Stubborn pup" Inu no Taisho mumbled. "He still hasn't learned"

"Perhaps he needs another human in his life?" his companion replied.

Touga paused, his expression thoughtful. Abruptly, his eyes took on a mischievous glint. "Perfect. And, I know just who to bind him to".

"I know that glint and it can't mean anything good. Just what are you planning Touga?"

Avoiding the question, he replied "Midoriko, I think we should go talk to the Kamis". Laughing, he said "I can't wait to see the look on my son's face when he learns what I have in store for him".

"One day, your plans are going to get you in trouble" Midoriko replied, exasperated with her companion.
