Elegance
On their way to breakfast, an older wolf demon stops them. "General Taisho," he rumbles deep in his throat, "It is an honor to finally see your home. My daughter, Tsubaki, is impressed with your western lands."
Tsubaki, an elegant brunette Daiyoukai, catches his eye and smiles shyly.
The father notices Kagome as she bows, and his face twists into a strained smile. "I see your staff has been rearranged. Are all your attendants busy today?" He lets out a booming, wolf-like laugh. "Though I suppose most human women are brainless enough that they make good slaves, eh?"
Kagome feels her face flush.
Inutaisho observes the older demon coolly. He does not laugh. "Some humans are most intelligent, Lord Atsukage" he responds calmly. "She is especially so, more than any help I've had from northern regions in a millennium."
Atsukage's face turns red with anger.
Inutaisho turns on his heel with a swish of youki. "Come along, Kagome."
