Daughter of my Heart
Hi all! This is a little Sesshomaru/Rin short. My first one to be exact, so please be kind.
Disclaimer: I don't own InuYasha....He belongs to his respective companies which I don't remember.
Thank you to me best friend, Katgome, for being there for me when I needed her.
Now, on with the show!
"Lord Sesshomaru? Would you read me a bedtime story?" a girl, with black hair with a ponytail on the side of her head asked, rolling over. The man she was looking at flipped his long white hair over his shoulder and looked at her, his face in it's everlasting mask of indifference.
"Lord Sesshormaru does not tell stories, you little whelp!" a green frog looking man screamed at her, glaring from the shadows.
Sesshormaru glanced at the small demon, who clamped his beak shut.
"Human, I have killed many of your kind without a thought, and yet you ask questions like that." He said turning back to the moon he was gazing at just a moment before.
"Please, Lord Sesshormaru?" He winced as she spoke this. 'How can this little creature affect me so?' He wondered.
"Very well human, but after this you must go to sleep." shifting his weight on the branch slightly Sesshormaru turned back around to face her. ' What was that tale the half-demon's mother told him all the time..'
"In a land where it never rained, there was a demon named Inu no Taishou. He was king of this land and ruled it wisely, keeping all other demons out. A princess lived in this land, and fell in love with the Demon King. He enturn fell in love with her..." Sesshomaru grimaced, looking down and seeing that the little girl was already fast asleep.
"Jaken, cover her up with my cloak over there . I do not need the little human freezing to death." Jaken grumbled but did as his master told him.
"Lord Sesshomaru, why do we keep this fowl thing? She is not even wor..." He stopped mid sentence, finding the Toukijin shoved under his throat.
"Human or not, she is my property...and I will not have you critiquing what I keep as a pet. Do you understand?" He glared down at the frog demon, who trembled.
"Yes, Lord....I understand....."
"Good." Sesshomaru took the sword away and tucked it back underneath his belt. ' Why do I keep this little human around? She isn't worth anything...' He looked down at her sleeping form, and a smile played at his lips which he held back. Shaking his head slightly, Sesshomaru turned back to the moon.
