"You nearly killed me! How could you not remember?!" Kagome wailed in frustration, her earlier fright thrown to the wind.
Sesshōmaru looked taken aback by her statement. Racking his brain, he wondered how he could have missed such blaring detail. While he was relieved to find that her neck wounds were merely superficial, he was still unsettled by the amount of blood that stained her cream-colored blouse. It looked worse than what it was.
Though he did not particularly care for Kagome outside of their current working relationship, ending her life was certainly not his intention.
Anger boiling over, she pointed an accusatory finger at him. "I don't know why you felt the need to hurt me, but that is not okay. I could press charges for assault!"
"I can assure you, I know nothing of what you speak," he deadpanned.
"Really? Then, I'm sure you will have no trouble explaining how my blood and my DNA ended up under your fingernails."
Her shrill voice reverberated through the walls of the well, traveling upward to the opening, their only source of light. And escape.
