Chapter 21: Connection
Sesshoumaru didn't understand what was happening. Since the shop appeared to him weeks ago, he couldn't draw away from its gravitational pull, feeling beckoned to return to it time and time again. As he remained there, he felt plagued by the strange visions that came and went without warning. Sometimes he couldn't remember them, and other times he felt like he saw them in perfect clarity.
When the vision passed, though, he felt a strange hollowness inside of him as he grasped for the fleeting images, trying to summon them back forcefully, but it would always end in failure. He could only manage fragmented images of skin, claws, blood, remembering only ragged breathing and a lust so insatiable, unlike any he had ever experienced.
The timing of these strange incidents was too particular to be mere coincident, and with no other explanation, Sesshoumaru could only wonder whether or not the visions and the shop were somehow connected.
