Chapter 65: This Once
A bird's trill woke Sesshoumaru. Nearly dawn. No harm had come from his lapse, but he was annoyed over sleeping so soundly. With chagrin, he finally registered the human nestled against him... something he should not have immediately overlooked.
Discomfited, he pushed at her with his youki, and a gentle shimmer nudged back in an almost deferential rebuff. "Five more minutes," she mumbled, snuggling closer.
Sesshoumaru grimaced, but did not retaliate. Kagome's scent teased pleasantly at his nose, and her breath puffed ticklishly through his fur. This once. Making a concession, he forced himself to relax and drifted off again.
