Sesshomaru stood at the entrance to a academy that his father had started and left for him to inherit. He studied the place it had high walls concealing the students working on the inside about a mile west was his fortress. The Academy of Demonic Purpose smelled of sweat from young demon and demonesses working to prefect their powers and master all weaponry. It even teaches manners, politic, history, and rituals.

"Open the door to your master and lord." Sesshomaru glared at the door. It opened wide with a crowd of young, giggling demonesses stood to welcome him.

"Master Sesshomaru, Your so strong! I hear you've slain a million humans! Is it true?" the girls wouldn't stop giggling and babbling. Yet he must deal with it because they are practically demonic royalty. Sesshomaru spotted one female demon that was not flirting, giggling, or babbling and his heart skipped a beat because she was the most beautiful demoness he had ever laid eyes. She had hair the color of black, raven silver, deep green eyes, and silver demon marks going down her face. She glared at him with such intensity and anger. She turned and fled to the boarding house followed my a hand maid.

"Mayuri, please let us go. We need not watch this disgusting display of ideology." The demoness walked away with her hand tucked within her kimono sleeves.

Once they were safely in their shared chambers mayuri started combing her mistress's hair. She always did this when Suzuki was upset. Suzuki was very beautiful, but because of this men only thought that she was not smart or powerful. She was both, or all three.

" Tell me my lady what makes you despise lord Sesshomaru? The moment he enter the Academy your feelings were of ill will and you despise him." Mayuri was a over a hundred year old demon who served the Kuro family for all her life and has served this girl for the eighteen years she had lived.

"He enjoys the worship of young women and girls to satisfy his own ego." Her face relayed the contempt that she felt for such a weakling.

"I think you should at least show respect for his blood line by putting up with him."

"I know you right, but I think that he does not know of father's intentions."

"Indeed I'm sue that is definitely a possibility."

" Is it not nearly time for the evening meal. Mayuri, I think I have an idea about how to deal with is ego. Go get my finest kimono." Suzuki was purring as Mayuri brought out a kimono of black and gold with her fines gems and combs. Once she was dressed she was the most beautiful thing on two feet. the kimono stuck to her curves making them mouth watering and her hair fell over her shoulders and back with beautiful combs holding it together. Her cheeks turned red as she saw her body. " I don't think I look descent in these close. I'm not that pretty."

"My lady you are very beautiful."

"Mayuri You haven't told anyone of my beast. How it takes over at random times. She seems to be restless. Why do you think she is acting up?"

" Mistress, may I speak freely?"

" You need not ask, you may always speak your mind."

" You are of age and have yet to find a demon who is more powerful than you and there for your beast has yet to find a candidate for mating. Lord Sesshomaru is definitely more powerful than you and your beast is aroused by that." Mayuri spoke softly to her. Her eyes widened and her beast loved that she and demoness in her had finally agreed on something.
