Chapter 59: Turned Around
Sesshoumaru slipped away from the festivities the moment the moon reached its zenith, but he found his rooms empty of both miko and fang. A growl began low in his chest; however, a faint sound reached him, and he followed it higher. Two flights beyond his door, he found Kagome dozing on a landing, Tenseiga hugged against her chest, where it pulsed gently. Fascinated, Sesshoumaru let his fingertips graze the sheath... then the cheek that rested against it. She is cold.
Kagome's lashes fluttered, but she was blind in the darkness. "Sesshoumaru-sama?"
"Hnn."
"I'm lost," she whispered.
"So I see."
