14 / / Rose, by another name?
"You know my name, correct?" she asked in a calm voice.
He warily gave a short nod.
"Then you will know I am not anything less," she impressed upon the importance, "than Kagome."
He suppressed a delicious shiver at her flaring powers, "I did not mean to offend. However, 'miko' is your title."
"Just as wench or bitch?" she returned. "I am not just miko, confined by their characteristics or ideals. I am Kagome."
That was true. She was not like any miko he had ever met. Or creature.
"My apologies, Kagome."
It was her turn to repress a shudder.
A/N: He bypassed calling her Higurashi right into the personal Kagome! She would've insisted on it anyway. & he knew her name from… the previous encounter where drank her blood. =="
ALSO, if any1 has any ideas for this story, PLEASE suggest it. =]
