The Moon and the Sun

Chapter Twenty-Nine:
"It would seem she is biased. I don't believe she has been telling me the truth, " Sesshomaru looked down at the flowers, contemplating.
"You doubt your mother's retelling of the story?" Kagome couldn't help prodding.
"I'm a patient man, but I do not like repeating myself," Sesshomaru growled.
"Forgive me, my lord. I was just surprised that you would come all this way to hear the story from us instead of taking your mother at her word."
Sesshomaru was in front of Kagome as soon as she finished speaking. She startled and took a step backward. He grabbed her arm.
