Here's the next chapter...

after someone sent me a very disturbing reveiw having to do with jaken

shudder

Sessho-maru stared lazily out the window of his study as Jaken went over his report.

"The tiger clan of the south seems fit enough to take it upon themselves to encroach on your lands, my lord…" Jaken droned on. Suddenly, the door slid open and there stood the girl paler and purer then freshly fallen snow. "How did you get in here?!" Jaken began. Sessho-maru rose to his feet, "Jaken, leave us…"

The imp looked at his master in confusion before hurrying away. "What are you doing here?" Sessho-maru asked in a much softer tone. Seiren lowered her gaze, "Naraku threw me away, he said I had displeased him…"

Sessho-maru took her into his embrace, "I can't believe anyone one would willingly give up such a treasure…"

Seiren sighed in contentment, closing her eyes. "…Kill him…"

Seiren's eyes shot open, now tinged a dull red. "…Kill him…my daughter…kill him…NOW!!"

Seiren closed her eyes, forcing the voice from her head. "What's wrong?" Sessho-maru asked gazing down at her. "I'm fine…" Seiren managed a smile to reassure him.


"Why didn't you kill him?!" Naraku yelled. "You had the perfect opportunity!"

"No Father, it was too soon…" Seiren whispered. Pain pulsed through her chest, the young girl gasped, grabbing at the front of her kimono, she fell to her knees. "I decide when the right time is! Never forget, just like your older siblings, I hold your heart in the palm of my hand! Defy me again, Seiren, and I will crush your heart!!"

With that, he was gone, Seiren sat on the floor of the room Sessho-maru had given her. Her heart ached, but not because of Naraku.

'Please don't make me kill him…I…love him…'


Sessho-maru was awakened by a knock at the door to his chambers. He was surprised to see Seiren standing before him when he opened the door. When she looked at him, there was a hurt look in her usually expressionless eyes. "What troubles you, koi?" he asked, gently stroking her cheek.

Seiren placed her hands over his, nuzzling her cheek into his hand. "Sessho-maru-sama…do you…love me?"

"Of course"

Seiren blushed, "Then let me stay with you…just for tonight…"

Sessho-maru stared at her in mild surprise, "Is that…truly your wish…?"

Seiren smiled nodding, leaning down, he kissed her passionately. Seiren threw her arms around his neck.

'I… love you, too…Sessho-maru -sama'
