Author's note: Hey, sorry about the longer update. Not much to say (shocker)…other than this pairing is Onigumo's point of view.
Enjoy!

I hiss in my mind as she rubs strange herbs onto my wounds. I cannot hiss verbally; my vocal chords are close to gone. All because a careless bandit fell off a cliff. I hear her soothing voice whisper to me as she rewraps my bandages.
"How are you feeling today, Onigumo?" Kikyo asks me. I struggle to form the words.
"Fine, milady, now that you have tended to me so…well." I see her look at me curiously before smiling.
"I have only carried out a miko's duties. I do not think I have performed any greatness." She stood and wiped her robes. I close my eyes.
"Oh…but you have. Only one more service that I would need from you." I groaned slightly. "A…personal…service from a beautiful lady such as yourself."
Kikyo's normally loving face changed quickly to stoic. "I…priestesses do not perform the service you speak of. And certainly not to wounded bandits who cannot move."
With that, she left.
Every time she leaves, even just to sleep at night, I wonder if she will ever come back. I know her feelings towards this fool. And that…hanyou…she's always around him. A hanyou! I see them every day. Their meeting place is only a few yards away from my cave. I see the way they look at each other. I see their…secretive smiles, their…kiss…
I know she loves that boy. But…I do not understand why she cannot love me, as well. Maybe…if I were stronger, a demon. If there was any hope at all, I would latch onto it like an infant to its mother.
If there is any hope left, maybe, just maybe…
…I can tear them apart.
