AN: Part 10 of Voluntary Obligation.
Sesshoumaru stared down at the lone drop of blood that stained her chin, already beginning to crust, turning from red to a rusty color. In all of his long existence he couldn't remember regretting a life he had taken, but this time it had been an accident.
This time his victim didn't deserve to die. As he stared down at her lifeless form, he found himself once again immobile, unable to move from his spot. He knew his father's fang would work on her, but he also knew the consequences of using it to bring back life to the dead.
