She turns to the left and notices a royal red oak cabinet. Kadae seemingly prances toward it. After admiring its beauty, she opens the doors. A whole row of kimonos almost identical to the ones Sesshomaru wears rest on the rack.

"They are all for you My Love," he says.

Kadae takes one from the middle and holds it up to herself. She looks down and notices it will fit perfectly. As she slips of your sandals, Kadae turn towards Sesshomaru.

"Do you need any help putting it on?" he asks.

"No, thank you though."

Sesshomaru leaves her new room, looking somewhat disappointed, and pulls the door to, but not shut. He leans against the wall next to the door. As Kadae begins to change, Sesshomaru peers at her through the crack in the door, admiring her perfect figure and curves, as if she was his angel. When she finishes putting the kimono on, Kadae turns around and sees a pair of golden eyes looking in her direction, but as soon as her eyes meet them, they are gone. As she come out of the room, Sesshomaru is backed against the wall, hands behind his back and closed eyes, with a face as red as the wall pattern in the room. When he notices that Kadae is near him, his left eye opens. He can tell she knows he was looking in on her.

"I'm sorry My Lady, I could not help myself," he says, but then shuts his eye again.

She giggles and looks down at the dress. It's quite long and has a slit on the right leg, but the sides are connected with some sort of string. The chest area is mid length; not too far down, but not as far up as a traditional kimono.

"Lord Sesshomaru, how do you know me?"

Sesshomaru opens both his eyes this time.

"Come, I shall tell you the story," he says, giving Kadae his hand.

She takes his hand and he leads her into her room. Kadae sits down at the top of the bed and he sits at the bottom of the bed.

"500 years ago, I had a dream. In that dream, I saw a lovely young lady who looked identical to you. She even had the scar you have on the bottom of your right foot. She introduced herself as Kadae, and I extended my arm to her so we could take a walk in the nearby forest. However, before she could take my hand, Naraku took her I away. After that, I woke up. But for some reason, the girl seemed real. I promised to find her one day, and now I have."

"Sesshomaru, I had a similar dream 5 years ago. I could not make out the people in my dream though. All I could see were a pair of yellow eyes and a pair of red eyes. I tried to walk towards the yellow ones, but the figure with the red eyes swept me into the sky."

Whenever Kadae thinks about that dream, she feels depressed. It's like the dream was real, and she really did get taken away. Kadae knows she didn't and that it was only a dream, but why did Sesshomaru have the same dream? It's too odd to just be a coincidence. Why couldn't she see the eyes of the figures? Is it because she isn't a demon? Live in their future? Don't know either of them, until now? Her thoughts act just like acid, burning holes inside of her, making the sadness worse. As the first tear falls, Sesshomaru's finger grabs it, and wipes it away. Kadae looks up at him and smiles, even though she is still crying.

"Come now My Love, you are safe as long as I am alive," he speaks softly into Kadae's ear, stroking her hair.

She leans into him again, and with her head in his chest, it seems as though he is filling her thoughts' holes. He rubs her hair downwards and holds her close to him. Kadae feels his head move towards the window, looking at the stars. He doesn't notice Kadae looking at him; his eyes seem as if they have been with her since she was born, protecting her, watching over her.

"Maybe standing on the balcony will help you feel better," Sesshomaru says. He leads Kadae to the balcony.

His right hand holds onto her hand even after they are outside. He slowly lets go of her hand and puts his hand around Kadae's waist. He pulls her towards his side. She tilts her head to the left, so that it's leaning on his shoulder. He continues to look at the sky. When he looks down at her, he begins to blush.

"Lady Kadae, you look so perfect. Your face, your body, your arms, your legs; everything."

He reaches his arm farther out and holds the side of Kadae's right arm. As a breeze goes by, she looks at Sesshomaru's hair. It seems to sway gracefully in the wind, the same way grass does. She turns towards him and wraps her arms around him, sitting her head on his shoulder. A few minutes later, she turns back around. He in exchange drapes his arms over her shoulders. She feels so safe with him holding her. Sesshomaru begins to take his right hand and move it across her shoulder. He takes his left and holds her left hand. As he begins to move his hand down Kadae's arm he stops.

"Do you mind me doing this My Love?" he asks her.

Shaking her head, he continues down her arm. As he gets to Kadae's waist, she tilts her head back from the feeling of ecstasy. When he gets down to as far as his arm can reach, which is the end of her waist, he stops.

"Lady Kadae… is this what humans call… love?" Sesshomaru asks Kadae.

Pondering her thoughts, she eventually sighs. "Yes, My Lord, yes it is."

"Come love, you need rest," Sesshomaru says softly as he picks Kadae up bridal style and takes her into her room.

He closes the balcony door gently then sits her down on the bed. She covers herself with the smooth blankets, snuggling them. Sesshomaru kneels down and leans toward her forehead. He gives a light kiss to her forehead then stands back up.

"Goodnight my love," Sesshomaru says as he begins to leave.

"Wait," Kadae says quietly, and he stops "You wish to stay, don't you?"

As Sesshomaru turns around toward her, he nods.

"There is a couch over there, I won't mind if you sleep there."

Sesshomaru smiles as he walks to the couch. Like many other things in the room, it is red. Moments after he blows out a candle in the room, Kadae falls asleep. But while she sleeps, she has a dream. Naraku has returned for her, and this time she can see him completely. When she turns around, her beloved Sesshomaru is on the ground, bleeding and motionless. Naraku pulls her away. When she wakes up, she squints to find Sesshomaru. When Kadae sees his figure on the couch, she feels relieved. Yet, she is still scared. She walks over to him and lies on top of him, curled up almost. He turns his head, and then drapes his arms over her, but he stays asleep. Within his arms she falls asleep again, feeling protected.
