A/N: Just a reminder to readers, this is an incomplete cannon divergence story; therefore, certain events in the plot have not been revealed yet. Though I don't need to, let me assure you there is a plan for this story; I'm not simply pulling each chapter out of my arse and hoping they work together...
Also, given that this story is written in 100-word pieces, I'm aware everyone is bound to have their own interpretation of events (that's the beauty of writing in this format); however, if you're expecting a clear cut story that tells you all you need to know and doesn't encourage you to read between the lines, or speculate why things are proceeding the way they are, then this story is not for you.
Lastly, I happily encourage all my darling readers to leave comments and reviews; but criticisms that are not constructive and/or based on assumptions of incomplete information are not. This is just a story. It is here simply for entertainment purposes. If you are not entertained, then I recommend you turn your attention and energy elsewhere.
Otherwise, buckle-in folks, cause this story still has a ways to go.
Chapter 46
Fresh tears tightened the back of Kagome's throat. Sagging in relief against Tamotsu's side, she took in the rare sight of her companion's slumber. His face was relaxed; mouth slightly opened as his chest steadily rose and fell with each breath he took. The semblance of vulnerability called to her.
With child-like hesitancy, Kagome inched her way to Sesshoumaru's side. As Tamotsu joined her, a trembling hand reached out to the trailing end of moko-moko and gently hugged it to her chest. She matched her breath to his until her anxiety loosened its hold and allowed sleep to reclaim her.
