Chapter 19: Questionable Taste
Kagome's temper resurfaced when the old demoness who managed the inn's kitchen brought a single tray of food at dinnertime. She eyed the miko intently. "I was not informed that your tastes ran to humans. Shall I take this back or bring another?"
"Leave it and be gone," Sesshoumaru replied stiffly.
As soon as the door slid shut, Kagome rounded on him, demanding, "Did she actually think I was your dinner?"
"Perhaps."
"That' s outrageous!"
"Is it?" He regarded her solemnly, then remarked, "Most will assume I keep you close to sate one appetite or another."
She blanched... then blushed.
