Kagome paused, the entire speech she had memorized in her head gone. She tried to speak, but her words dissipated. Sesshomaru's presence alone was enough to fluster her. Her words wormed their way through her. "I'm so confused." This wasn't what she'd planned on saying. "I don't know if you're lying or if he is… I don't even know if I trust you. You were never someone who I'd ever even thought I'd be with. I can't even think straight. Your presence makes me so uneasy..." The words spilling out of her were true, but none of it as what she wanted to say.
Sesshomaru stood to leave, his face masking any emotion he may be feeling. He stopped short of the door and turned towards her. "You have nothing to fear. I have chosen you as my mate, despite my reluctance. Demons and humans are not meant to be mated."
Kagome was taken aback, not sure how he meant it. She was so caught up in her own thoughts she didn't notice him getting closer. He pulled her into his arms, and tilted her face up to his. "I didn't mean that we should not be as one, merely that most demon-human coupling isn't fated to be. You are…" He paused, looking for the right word. "Special." He bent down and kissed her, quieting all her qualms. All her fears faded away as he held her in his arms.
A/N- I know this is a short chapter, but there will be more soon.
