Chapter 3

He went and put his hands on her shoulders. She flinched but she didn't move away. The stood like that for a few minutes before Sess put his hands and her chin and forced her chin up he could tell something was bothering her.

She looked at him; he could tell something was tearing at her heart by the look in her eyes. He decided he would find out, and if his brother hurt her he would dearly pay for it.

He removed his hands from her chin and went to sit by her. One of his hands was still on her shoulder in a comforting way. She leaned in a tiny bit and he needed no further invitation he pulled her into his arms.

She started shaking. He wrapped his arms more firmly around her. "Are you cold?" he asked concern written all over his face.

'she's a mortal I can't have feelings for her'

' but you do'

'who asked you'

'you did'

He was brought back to reality by her soft reply, "No, I'm just......never mind."

".." he was about to say something but by the look on her face she didn't want to talk about it so he left it alone.

The just sat for a while. Sess looked down and Kagome was asleep. Rather then wake her he picked her up in his arms and carried her to his little castle hidden in the woods.

She awoke in a beautiful royal blue room. The bed was a four-poster bed with blue silk hangings. It was the most beautiful room she had ever seen. She stayed lying down staring around the room for a long time when she heard the doorknob turn and a young woman came in. The woman looked human until Kagome saw the long fox like tail.

The woman came over to the bed and pulled away the silk hangings, "Good morning." She said in very feminine voice.

Kagome was startled but said, "Hello, um..."

"Yes?" the young hanjou said.

"Um actually I was wondering where exactly am I?"

"Oh don't you know? Lord Sesshomaru brought you here late last night."

"Sesshomaru..." Kagome mumbled to herself.

"What?" Kagome turned around to find the demon lord looking right at her.

"Oh! My lord," The young maid bowed slightly. "Did you want something Lord Sesshomaru?"

"Yes, I would like to speak with Kagome." Said Sesshomaru

The young maid just stood there.

"Alone!" Sesshomaru said.

"Oh, begging your pardon Lord!" with that the young maid left in a hurry.

Kagome just stood there looking at him, waiting for him to say something. He was looking back at her as though this was a normal thing to do.

He finally came out of his trance. "Come with me!" he said. Not waiting for an answer he just started walking.

"Wait!" she yelled.

He stopped and turned, "What?"

"Well, Um I kinda don't have anything to wear."

Looking down he saw the she was carrying around the bed sheet.

"Oh go into the closet there are a few kimonos that should fit you in there."

"Um, Sesshomaru.."

"Huh?"

"How did I get undressed?"

"The maid who was in your room this morning undressed you last night."

"Oh! Okay."

"I'll wait in my study, Kat will take you there!" Sesshomaru disappeared down the hall before she could ask him, "Who's Kat?"

"That would be me Miss......"

"Oh, the girl from this morning, my name's Kagome."

"Oh well this way I'll help you get dress and do your hair."

"Thanks. But I don't think I need help!"

Kat didn't reply and just walked right past Kagome and into the blue room!

Kat opened the closet. And took out a beautiful silk kimono. Kagome had never seen anything so beautiful.

Kat came over to Kagome and pulled the sheet away and wrapped the kimono quickly around her. It was the same color blue as the room with tiny snowflakes covering it.

A few minutes later she was wearing the beautiful kimono. It went just above her bust. It didn't cover her upper arms but went just below where he arm met her shoulder. It went straight across showing a tiny bit of cleavage. It was tied at the waste with a beautiful white sash it went together perfectly.(A.N. sorry guys not very good at describing but I hope you understand the main effect)

Kat led her to the stool and made her sit so she could do her hair. Kagome sat down. Kat brushed out her hair and put it up into a simple up doe with her hair curled in the pony tail and pinned to her head in simple curls.

"I look......!" said Kagome in shock

"Beautiful, yes, but I didn't do that, you were already like that you just needed the right clothes and hair style to bring it out."

"I wasn't going to say that but thank you, I'm going to have to steal you from Sesshomaru when I go back."

"Go back? Go back where?"

"Oh, never mind about that which way to Sesshomaru's study?"

"Oh right, this way." She said walking down towards the end of the hall. The castle itself was beautiful you could tell Sesshomaru loved white and blue. Those were the basic colors of the hallways and rooms of this part of the castle anyways.

When she walked into the study.

"Hello, Sesshomaru." Kagome said shyly

"Hello......." He got the breath knocked out of him as he saw her, the sunlight going through her curls. She looked beautiful especially in that kimono he had found for her.
