Chapter 7
'I have to talk to him, before it's too late.' Suzuki ran as fast as she can to the meadow, not stopping, until she arrived at her destination. She frantically searched for her lover. But it was to no avail.
'Gods, where in the world is he,' she wondered frantically. She still looked around her surroundings to see or hear any signs of him. Finally, she heard Sesshoumaru come. The uptight girl ran up to him.
"What's wrong," he asked.
"He found out," she replied.
"Who?"
"Kaori. I have no idea how in the world he was able to find out about our secret. I was so careful as to not let it out. How, oh how did--"
"Whoa. Slow down. Who's Kaori?"
"He's my so called-fiancé. My parents betrothed me to him. But, since my parents are dead, I thought that I didn't have to marry him."
"So, how is he a danger to us?"
"He'll expose our secret if I don't take his hand in marriage. Sesshoumaru, you have to get out of here, before it's too late."
"I don't care. He can endanger our love, hell even our lives. I won't let you marry him."
"Sesshoumaru— "
"I love you, and that's all that matters to me." He cupped her face in her hands, and gave her a gentle kiss.

Suzuki walked back to the village after her encounter with Sesshoumaru. When she arrived at her shop however, Kaori was waiting for her.
"So, have you come to your decision," he asked.
"Yes. I'm not taking your hand in marriage."
"Well, then, I guess that your little secret will be exposed."
"You're wrong. I vanquished him."
"Good. How did it feel to vanquish him?"
"How do you think I felt?"
"So, you didn't vanquish him, did you? I could tell. I will find out the truth about what's going on between you two." He gave her a glare before he left.
A.N.:
Well, how was it? Good, bad? I need more reviews. Come on people.
