Chapter 1.

The Secret

'He comes at night; he always came out at night! Was it his secret? The secret he wouldn't say? He couldn't be one he was so gentle & sensitive. Why would he be a Vampire?' that ran through her head as she waited for him.

She looked at the mirror her hazel eyes were dull, & her dark brown hair was in a tangle; she was wearing the black gown he had got her a week ago. There came a silent tapping at her window she looked up and saw him. His purple eyes sparkling in the night, his hair all out of his ponytail, & his black tux indicated they were gonna go out somewhere. He smiled as she went to the window & opened it was alluring just the smell the cologne of him gave her Goosebumps.

"Sango come on I'm gonna take you somewhere you'll absolutely love" He whispered in her ear. She nodded softly she looked up at him with her eyes had gotten brighter when she saw him. "Sango what did he do?" He asked his eyes showing concern. Her eyes showed her masked tears. "Roku… he said if I don't marry anyone this fortnight He'll marry me off to Karanouske" she looked up his anger had taken over, he growled and started moving towards the window then stopped; "Sango start packing up, you're gonna live with me…NOW!"

His eyes then stopped "I'm sorry… I yelled at you" He walked over to her and held her to him. "It's okay" she looked away as she got some close for herself. "You know what just take you're favorite things & I'll buy you your own handpicked wardrobe" he smiled and kissed her cheek softly.

She smiled he always bought her anything she needed or didn't need. It was like he spoiled her anytime he could. "You don't have too" she smiled as she packed her mothers necklace. "Sango, I uh have to tell you something' listen im older than you think I am and uh I'm a" he looked away "Listen ill tell you later right now isn't a good time with HIM on the loose" He looked back at Sango and grabbed her bag. "Come on let's go I still have to show you you're surprise" he smirked at her and jumped out of the window.

Sango looked around checking if she had forgotten anything then remembered what she had gotten today, she quickly grabbed that and put it in the secret pocket in her gown. She jumped out of the window landing perfectly in Miroku's arms; He carried her to the carriage and there was a box there with a bow and holes.

"There's a gift I got you, I know you'd like it… I know what you like so you can trust me. I'm not like your father or Karanouske" He smiled and dropped her on the seat, then handed her the box. She raised her eyebrow as he started smirking. She opened the box and saw a cat "Oh my god, I've wanted a cat since I was born! I love her!" she looked at him and then added "I Love you" she moved over to him and pressed her lips against his.

As she moved away she looked straight at him then lowered her gaze feeling nervous. "Sango…I…I wanted to say that first" Miroku said smirking then quickly added "What are you gonna name her?" he asked as he grabbed the cat. The carriage started moving in a quick speed. She bit her lip completely in thought "Kilala" she yelled looking at Miroku. "You know that means Mica in the old language, right" he asked looking down at the now named cat. "Yes" she said glaringly.

He smirked and then looked out of the carriage as it came to a sudden stop. "There's my house come on let's go in so you can look around". She nodded and he walked her to the house. There were black roses everywhere not in a mess but it looked as if it was supposed to go they're, there was a huge green apple tree its tree trunk looked rotted and its leaves were dead. She noticed a fairly large doghouse on the other side the chain was broken. Miroku glanced at her quickly and followed her sight.

He frowned "Not again… Wait here" He walked over to the doghouse whistling a tune that hurt Sango's ears. There came a big cat running fast toward him; she noticed it was a black leopard it pounced on him. It was on top of him her eyes widened he was probably dead by now she ran to him she felt tears pouring down her face.

When she got to him she saw that he was smiling he looked up at Sango and then at the leopard. "Get off boy" the lion quickly got off as if he had done something wrong. Miroku got up quickly looked around and then grabbed her hand and walked to an almost jog to the horse. He then paused "Close your eyes whatever you do don't open you're eyes". Sango obeyed the look in his eye that scared her.
