A woman ran though a field of flowers and blossoms, picking only the best in sight. She twirled and hummed a melody she had made up when she was young. The brown haired beauty headed back to camp after her arms were filled with the bright arrangements and placed them in a small leather bag.
She now stood at the edge of the forest; right where he left her to wait until his return. Her Lord had left days ago but she didn't fear that anything bad happened to him; he was Sesshomaru, the Great Dog Demon of the Western Lands, and he was the strongest demon she knew of.
Her lord had resurrected her when she was seven after she was killed by a pack of hungry wolves and she has been traveling by his side ever since. She had once lost her mother, father and brother and was left all alone to be beaten by the villagers of her old town but ever since that day she met Sesshomaru she hasn't been alone in that sense anymore; he was her new family.
Jaken, a green toad imp, and A-Un, a large two headed dragon were also part of this new family. Jaken may be a noisy little bugger and would constantly scold her but he had a kind and protective side just for her…even though that side barely ever showed. A-Un had always been protective of her and would always step on Jaken if he ever scolded her too much. They were her best and closest friends.
The sun was setting and was nearly beneath the horizon when the air started becoming crisp and the nineteen year old girl walked into the forest for some wood. I guess I'll have to build a fire for when Sesshomaru-sama and the others return.
After the fire was ablaze, she practiced her sword fighting to keep from dying of boredom. Her lord had given the sword to her as a present for her birthday a few years back, saying that she needed to be able to protect herself if he wasn't there.
"Rin," a low yet enchanting voice reached her ears as it spoke her name. The girl spun around with a smile and put her sword away.
"Sesshomaru-sama welcome back! Was there any trouble during your time away?" she asked curiously.
The handsome InuYukai merely nodded and sat down against a tree on the opposite side of the fire. "I trust that you had no troubles by yourself," he stated, his long white hair blew in the soft wind and he placed his two swords Tenseiga and Tokijin to his right.
"Hai! I found a field of flowers though! Oh yeah, I almost forgot..." she trailed off as she dug through her sack of necessities and pulled out teh bundle of different varieties of flowers.
She stood and held it out to her lord who in return nodded acceptingly and took the flowers from her outstretched hands; it was a tradition they have had since she was young…he would return and she would give him flowers.
Her deep brown eyes met his light amber ones; his clawed fingers gently touched her small slender digits as he took the bouquet …she blushed deeply. Why have I been get this feeling lately? I never used to have it when I was young…but ever since I became a woman I get a strange fluttering feeling in my stomach every time he looks at me, none the less touch me. Oh kami...do I…love him?
She tried to avoid his perfect dark yellow eyes and covered her blush with her dark brown bangs. Rin quickly stood and walked back over to her blanket that was on the ground and bid A-Un, Jaken, and her lord a soft goodnight. She turned her back towards them and tried to see what she really felt for her lord, her savior.

Sesshomaru watched as the woman turned away from him as she laid down for sleep. If she thought that he hadn't seen her blushing red cheeks then she was wrong. He sat there with a blank face, hiding his true feelings at that moment. He had always hated humans. He hated that his demon father had bedded with a human and had another son named Inuyasha, Sesshomaru's half-brother. He hated that his great and powerful father who had been feared by demons throughout the lands had died by the hands of a mortal in order to save that wretched human.
Throughout his whole life, Sesshomaru despised the human race…however…once he met Rin nearly twelve years ago and resurrected her with Tenseiga, his thoughts started to change ever so slightly. Sure he still hated humans but this girl, no…this woman, seemed different from all the rest. She was beautiful, caring, and an excellent swordsman (he taught her how to fight). The things that really set her apart from most humans however was that she wasn't greedy, conceited, and annoying. She also wasn't afraid of most demons so that was a plus as well.
The great InuYukai tilted his head up to look at the stars, the wind blew his bangs out of his face revealing the maroon crescent moon on his forehead and stripes adorning across his cheeks. Even though he had hated his father for leaving for a human woman, he couldn't help but finally start to understand what must have come over the older, now deceased man, for he, Sesshomaru, was afraid that he was starting to feel the same towards his always cheerful ward.
Rin, he thought in his head, what magic have you cast upon me to make me feel these things for you. I see the way men look at your perfect body and it nearly makes the demon in me to take over and slaughter them all in one mighty swipe of my claw. Whenever I see you talking with another man or boy in a passing village, I want to rip his throat out and hide you from all of their lustful eyes. When I see your bare neck I wonder how it would look with my mating mark there on your smooth ivory white skin. How can you make this Sesshomaru feel these things when I have sworn to myself never to fall in love with anyone, especially a human?
He dropped his gaze back down to the now sleeping woman and sighed ever so slightly that one could barely notice. The wind blew again and he could see her shiver. He stood silently, making his way around the sleeping Jaken and A-Un and over to his ward. He stared down at her for a second before hesitantly sitting next to her and gently lifting her into his lap. He had done this only once before when she was ten and had a fever. She fit perfectly into his arms and snuggled closer to his warmth in her sleep.
Sesshomaru's eyes softened slightly. How did you manage to melt my frozen heart and gain my love, my Rin?
