Chapter 35: If Possible

Sesshoumaru descended on a wide porch at the base of a long flight of stairs, and his cloud dissipated. Nodding towards the boxes and wrapped bundles holding her new wardrobe, he said, "You will carry your own things."

She managed to hoist the pile into her arms, and looked to her companion for any other instructions. "Ready as I'll ever be," she replied with a touch of bravado.

He leaned close and spoke directly into her ear. "I will be the only one ignoring you. I am also the only one you answer to. Stay close."

"And quiet?"

"If possible."
