Chapter One

The Waking World

He awoke with a start having just experienced another dream. This time was worse though; he could actually feel her skin rub against his, her lips brushing across his own. He sat up in his bed, swinging his legs to the side. Leaning down to reach for his pants that he had shed just hours earlier, he removed the pack of cigarettes from the pocket. Tapping one out and slipping it between his lips, he then reached over to the night stand for his lighter. After lighting the end he pulled a drag from the cigarette while running his hands through his silver hair, that fell to just below his waist.

The sensations of the dream having worn off, Sesshoumaru began to think back over the erotic dream. He had been having visions of the same girl for the past year. Raven tresses, majestic blue eyes that seemed to pierce directly into your soul, slightly tanned skin, and lips that tasted like warm honey. It amazed him how he could actually taste her lips, it was one thing to imagine, but something entirely different to taste it when you awoke.

Getting up he walked over to his bedroom window and leaned against the frame. Golden eyes scanning the streets of Tokyo below his 23rd floor apartment. To speak the truth the woman of his dreams was perfect in every imagined. He spent half his time with women who were after his money. " I suppose that's one of the drawbacks of running your own business", he said amusingly to himself as he put out the rest of his cigarette in an ashtray.

He could never imagine spending the rest of his life to someone who didn't love him, just his money. So here he was: Sesshoumaru, a single, millionaire, demon; looking for the one perfect woman who didn't exist anywhere but his dreams. Closing his eyes he breathed her name, "Kagome."
