Chapter 41: But Soft

Sesshoumaru crossed to the panel that opened onto a narrow balcony and stepped out. At this height, the air was clear, free from the scents of the many inu-youkai whose attendance he'd confirmed during his climb through the avenues.

Kagome slipped up behind him and gasped at the magnificence of the view, for the many peaks and pathways of this ancient hideaway spiraled away towards the mist-shrouded rim. The castle was suspended in azure, sky above, sea below. "Sesshoumaru-sama?" she whispered in awe.

"Hnn?"

"Is all of this yours?"

"If I wish it."

"Do you?" she asked softly.

Sesshoumaru shrugged.
