Sesshoumaru's Secret

Chapter Twenty-Six

By: Luna

This seemed to be becoming a habit, Kagome mused a few hours later during lunch as she munched on a sandwich. Meeting and hanging out with someone she's never met before was… interesting.

Sango's skirt was rolled up, revealing the long expanse of smooth, shapely legs, crossed in a provocative manner as she slowly ate her packed lunch. Her hair was a thick, sooty black that she styled half up, and half down, showing both its smooth length and her long, elegant neck. Her bangs were cut sharply and dramatically across her brow, and again at her chin, framing her high, aristocratic cheekbones, the smooth, slightly pointed chin.

She was such a beautiful girl, Kagome thought, in awe and slightly overwhelmed by her presence. She didn't care about rumors; she put as much stock in them as she did about the rumors going on about her, but she didn't take them lightly either. If her revealing clothing was anything to go by, there was a thread of truth in there somewhere, but she was determined not to judge.

Sango's eyes, a rich, chocolate brown, was the only thing that wasn't seductive about the beauty; they glared at any man who tried to approach them, effectively keeping everyone at bay. Kagome cleared her throat, bring those hard eyes back to her, making her feel pinned under their intense scrutiny. "Um… so, what made you approach me?"

Sango looked away at the tentative question, but when she looked back, her eyes were a little softer. "I guess… it's because you remind me of me."
