Thank you Chapter 16 Reviewers

SkittlesKitty – Lol thank you for taking the time out to review my story. I really appreciate that love! I'm glad you are enjoying the steady flow. It's about to get a little messy now though. As for the characters that is a big compliment. Thank you! As for your fanfics, you can always request from the Beta list in at the top menu and narrow down your search. I don't really Beta myself. I more so Beta to encourage writers to keep writing and give ideas if they get writers block. But let me know if you would like for me to look at your work. Congrats on motherhood! xoxoxo

Guest 1 – You don't know what this is going to be….muahahahaha

Nyghtelf – Hey doll. I went back to reread what I wrote and I don't see it. If you can let me know where that is, I will be gladly to correct it as I for sure did not want that idea out there. Thanks for pointing that out thought so that I can fix it love! And you never know who will end up with who. This chapter might change things up a bit.

kagomeLove2 – Kikyo has so much potential as a character. It's really sad in the anime they made her almost 2 dimensional and shallow. Kikyo did want her sister to know she was in Paris at first but Kagome isn't answering her phone calls at the moment which can hurt any good relationship. But I think this chapter will answer a few more of your questions.

Youkai55 – I know right! Rin and Kagome are a cute little family. And anybody could make a move on Kagome at this point. I even thought about switching things up and adding another male to the fray…dun dun DUN! Happy Readings!

UnknownBeauty – I'm so happy you took the time to review! Thanks love! Hope you enjoy this next chapter.

Chapter 17: Recipe for Disaster

Kikyo eyed the eldest Inu demon of the Tashio Tribe as he eloquently sank down in the plush seat across from her at the table. Kikyo regarded him with cool calculating eyes. His power rolled over his form unrestrained seemingly flexing in a silent dare. He looked the same as he did in the photos with his crisp white shirt with rolled sleeves and blue jeans. His silver hair fell behind him as he looked upon her with the same expression she served him. A slow relaxed smile came to her red lips as she thought over Kaguya's statement earlier that day. She knew Sesshomaru had nothing to do with her games but that still didn't excuse his lack of interference in performing damage control in regards to her sister's reputation and business. One thing she did know about the demon, he always had a plan for everything. He was never one to allow control to slip from his sharp clutches.

Sesshomaru sat in the booth looking over at the woman who the demon world regarded as a deadly phenomenon as she was one of the few powerful priestesses on earth. He had never shared words with her except for the occasional peace summits when various leaders came together to discuss demon-human relations. Her spiritual status and practice had always landed her a place at the table. But she had been missing from those summits for quite some time. Last he heard, she vanished and tarnished her name as a miko; drowning herself in alcoholic despair. However, the way she sat before him spoke of a different woman. This thin woman dressed in a short black dress wore a confident gaze. She looked thinner and fragile than before. Her deep brown eyes revealed that she knew something and was here for a reason. The two sat in silence with one trying to decipher the other's recent appearance and the other debating if they should let sleeping dogs lie. Gold and brown eyes clashed as one stared down the other reading them for any silent clues for unanswered questions.

The people around them became background noise and the lights in the room seemed to have dimmed as the evening ticked onward. Kikyo shrugged her delicate shoulders and sighed before moving to get out of the booth. She prided herself on being a very patient woman and knew that with time all things would reveal themselves. Right now, Sesshomaru wasn't a threat and she could wait to get the answers to her questions. Besides, she knew getting any answer from the all-powerful Sesshomaru would be a daunting task.

"I was just on my way out. It was nice to see you again, Sesshomaru. You should call Lady Izayoi." She stated shifting her body to bend and grab her purse from the seat.

"I never took you as a coward, Grand Priestess."

Kikyo pulled her purse from the booth and unfolded the straps to place it over her shoulder. "What would give you the idea that I was one? I'm simply doing us both a favor."

Sesshomaru watched her move with very calculated motions. From his past experience and interactions during the various summits and peace talks, he knew Kikyo wasn't an easy woman to decode. She always was very careful in how she worded things. He had witnessed her negotiation prowess many times. "So I assume your sister doesn't know you're here. Otherwise that would be you rushing to her side instead of my brother."

Kikyo stilled at his words and looked at him with a growing smile of her own ready to dance to the tango he was creating. She sat her purse back down on the booth and moved back to sit down with the grace of queen. She regarded him with an interested countenance. "Why am I not shocked that you know more than anyone in the room as always."

Sesshomaru looked out the large clear window at the golden Eiffel Tower with a cold gaze. The night had fully come and blanketed the sky in its brilliance. "Why are you here, Lady Kikyo?"

Kikyo sighed before shifting back in her seat with an answer on her lips ready to burst. Her legs crossed under the table and her hand rested on her bag wanting to reach for a cigarette. Two waiters seemed to have come from thin air and appeared at their table. One began immediately clearing the table of the food and dishes left behind by the previous party. The other delivered a dark colored drink to Sesshomaru's side and refilled her fruity drink that she ordered before. Kikyo watched them speedily perform their job without making too much sound. When they left she looked back at Sesshomaru to answer his question. "Can I not be in the city of Paris? It is the city of love." She spoke cryptically with a smile.

Sesshomaru turned to look at her not buying anything she was saying. He turned his head to the side where he could see a few people snapping pictures of them with their phone trying to hide their actions. He picked his drink up and took a sip of it feeling the strong youkai blended alcohol run down his throat soothingly to calm his nerves. "You haven't been seen in years and now you show up with my family of all people."

Kikyo maintained her jovial expression and shook her head while running her finger along the rim of her glass. "To be honest, at first I came here with the intentions of lighting you up like a Christmas tree for the slander you did that nearly ruined my sister's career. But I have since learned some…interesting details that have given me reason to pause." Her mind instantly went to the conversation she had with Kaguya when she learned it was her that sent out those bad reviews to the press simply because she had her ass handed to her for being rude at her sister's restaurant. "Since I'm here, let's chat about your lovely fiancé." Kikyo stated bluntly. The smile on her painted lips slowly began to fade as she took on a more serious expression. Miko energy flowed around her and expanded in an invisible bubble to conceal their conversation from prying ears as she too was aware that they were being watched.

Sesshomaru growled warningly and flexed his aura out at her in aggression. The lights in the restaurant seemed to flicker from the pressure of his aura that was drawing attention to their table. He thought about her words and wondered who her sister was. His eyes nearly widened in realization of whom she was speaking about. "What makes you think I will tell you anything?" He challenged with a snarl.

"That's the thing. I don't care if you tell me anything." Kikyo pushed her glass to the side and looked at the demon straight in the eyes. She laced a bit of her spiritual aura protectively around her body as a shield and pulled reiki from her core into the palms of her hands ready to fight should she get into an altercation with the legendary 'Killing Perfection'. "Let's get to business. You need to control that hormonal bitch of yours. Or I'll put her down myself. And you know what I'm capable of."

Sesshomaru simply sat unmoving and uncaring which took Kikyo off guard. Inu demons were extremely protective of their courtships and mates. His nonchalant attitude struck her and it made her mind recalculate everything she knew and had gathered about the demon. Sesshomaru was known for his cold and ruthless demeanor. He may have been a chef now but before he was a brutal foe on the battlefield that stopped at nothing to test his strength and secure the legacy of his clan as rulers of Japan. History spoke of the amount of blood he spelt and the ingenious deals he struck in business to control resources going in and out of Japan. If the humans hadn't dropped the atomic bomb…she was willing to bet he would be heading the militia to carve pieces of the U.S. and turn them into Japanese territories. But somehow, someway, someone had gotten to him and he changed. Or he was finally exhausted of fighting all the time. No one would really know. Kikyo expected his clawed hands to reach across the table and attempt to dislodge her jugular or decapitate her head from her neck. But he did nothing but simply sit as if he was growing bored with their conversation.

Sesshomaru regarded her with a frosty gaze finding her threat to be about as empty as his glass was becoming. He knew Kikyo would make due on her threat to rid him of Kaguya and he couldn't be happier if she did. But, he was finding it angering to have the human stare him down and make demands as if she was his superior. He still was a bit unsettled at the revelation that the all-powerful miko was the oldest sister of the rather loud younger Higurashi. Now he had to deal with three Higurashi women interrupting his life and getting in the way of things. He looked her over and he could see the resemblance between the two. Certainly, they shared the same desire to mouth off. "Finished, miko?"

Kikyo was stunned but kept her expression as stoic as Sesshomaru's. "For now… Demon." She shot back flippantly.

Sesshomaru nodded and made to move out of the booth finding nothing more to be said between them. And just like Kikyo he found himself pausing due to the words that came from her mouth.

"You're hiding something grand." Kikyo stated frankly. "I think this whole relationship with Kaguya is a ruse for a reason that you are guarding with sharp teeth...that is the true question that everyone needs to ask you."

Sesshomaru turned to her with a glare and moved back in the seat. "Stay out of affairs that do not require insolent attention."

Kikyo pushed her aura against him leisurely to disgruntle him in a silent counter to the force of his aggression before. "The best thing about sobering up is that you finally can see everything in your life as it is and even beyond other people's bullshit that they try to feed you. Also as a miko, you forget it is my duty to stay knowledgeable of human and demon affairs. If you and Kaguya get together it could be possibly the most influential marriage in the world and your pups would be the wealthiest and control a massive amount of power among the people of this earth. That makes your relationship my 'insolent attention.'"

Sesshomaru simply sat still and calm with claws extending on the table. She treaded on thin ice with her deductions. But he wasn't shocked and didn't expect anything less of her. Kikyo was very observant and cunning. But this was something that did not require her human hands to dig in. "It would be wise that you tread carefully."

"You are controlling, LORD Sesshomaru." She mocked unafraid of his threats. "I know it was Kaguya that blasted your singular review all over the place and manipulated your words behind your back. I know that there is a reason you didn't immediately send her packing for doing such a thing." Kikyo spoke loving the subzero energy she was feeling pushing upon her flesh bitingly. The tiny hairs on her skin were raised yet she kept going now fully intrigued. "You are SO controlling I find it quite odd you would allow Kaguya to get away with using your name and credibility for her own irrational agenda. The Sesshomaru that I use to know didn't allow people to use him in such a way. Especially a demoness that hasn't received a loving touch from your hand." Kikyo pressed loving the pain she could feel creep upon her skin indicating how close she was to the thing he was hiding.

Sesshomaru's aura flexed over her wanting to strangle the life from her body. He simply sat silently listening to her scrape the edges of the truth with her sharp tongue. The truth that for once in his life, his plan for supreme procreation backfired due to Kaguya's incompetence. Also, that the control he was always praised about by the world was slowly slipping away as his instincts ate at him to nest and build a family. Everything in him cringed at Kaguya's touch that would slide against his skin. His body shuddered at the thought of mating her and producing a pup. All of it at once made him nauseous. He wanted the family that his father and mother had. Even though his heat was approaching, he still couldn't stomach the idea of placing his seed inside the spoiled demoness that clawed at his patience with every breath she took near him. But he couldn't simply call things off with her now. The demon council was notified of their expected nuptials too soon and he got stuck in a Breach of Promise contract. Now he sat trying to find a way out of the engagement without risking his family's inheritance. Kikyo was right that he could care less about the demon council but he did care about his clan and father's legacy. If he was to break off the nuptials without proper cause now, Kaguya had the grounds to call Breach of Promise against him and his clan. This would give her the grounds to take what she wanted. Since he owned half of his father's estate, she could take it. Luckily for him Kaguya was a fool and would breech it herself given a little bit more time. Already, he had proof that she used his credibility without just cause. From the phone and text messages he had proof she threatened the livelihood of his mother thus posing a threat to his family. Now all he needed was one more ounce of proof or evidence that spoke of the possibility of her being unfit for motherhood which is what he was seeking a mate for in the first place.

Sesshomaru continued to regard Kikyo sitting across from him. Unlike the many enemies he knew that would be laughing over the facts, she sat in contemplation. She was cold before but now something about her seemed different. He thought over Kikyo's own predicament and he knew without a doubt her little sister did not know about her presence in Paris. For sure, they would have crossed paths sooner. This brought up questions about the Higurashi family. Kikyo was a powerful woman. It would serve Kagome justice to have her sister with her always. But that didn't seem to be the case. Maybe there was more that Kagome wasn't telling. This irked him. More questions came to him that he would confront Kagome with. He studied Kikyo further as she sat comfortably now in her seat in silence looking out the window clearly in thought. Her hair shined under the dim light of his restaurant. Her aura sank down quietly and she no longer posed a threat to him. In response, he too pulled back his aura and came to the halfway point with her. To anyone looking, they looked like two old friends having a quiet dinner despite the violent truth unfolding at the table.

Kikyo picked up her drink to take a sip. "Look Sesshomaru. I don't care what you have going on in your life. I'm in no mood to fight with you nor do I want to. Just please keep my sister and my niece out of your plans and as collateral damage."

Sesshomaru growled at her then. He was a warrior in battle. It was beneath him to use women in such a manner. This challenged him and he balked at the notion with fury. "You doubt this Sesshomaru's honor?"

Kikyo shook her head growing exasperated. "No but I doubt Kaguya's. Kaguya has a reputation among those of us that really know her as being cruel and dirty handed. Plus, she has a temper to match. You should have seen the glass everywhere from her little tantrum today at your mother's palace. You really want to mate this woman?" Her fingers clutched her semi-empty glass wishing a drink stronger than what she had will fill it to calm her nerves. She didn't trust Kaguya and knew it was a matter of time before the demoness struck out. She just prayed Kagome and Rin weren't in the way of the fallout.

"Tell me what happened at my mother's." He demanded.

Kikyo stilled and blinked several times mulling over his request. Technically, his mother or siblings should be telling him this in person. But she couldn't help but wanting to give him a warning of the woman he was dealing with. Sesshomaru may not hold humans in the highest regards but he didn't hate them the way Kaguya did. He and his family had done many things to progress the peaceful relations between humans and demons. She at least owed him some knowledge to help him not make the biggest mistake in his life. Kaguya played like the marriageable socialite but she was far from it. With a quick lick of her lips, she dived into an explanation of events that happened that afternoon. She spoke about her past history with Kaguya and the knowledge she had on the demoness. She told him of how she was speaking with his mother when Kaguya waltzed in popping off at the mouth. She told him everything including her part that she played in it. She didn't hide anything or sugar coat it. He sat in his seat with his infamous stoic gaze directed at her. His harsh pair of golden eyes stayed on her form and listened without interruption. Kikyo read his body language and watched his aura concentration levels making sure he stayed calm and collected at the table. The last thing she wanted was to fight a Taiyoukai that night. "….then everyone was trying to reach you and they thought they could find you here."

Sesshomaru's claws etched on the table, dragging through the wood with fury. His eyes were molten as he gazed at Kikyo hearing the truth for himself. She spoke the truth and he could smell it from every word that came from her lips. Pack was always top priority of Inu and Wolf demon clans. He would never allow anyone that he claimed as pack to be in harm's way. The desire to claw through Kaguya's intestines was palatable. Izayoi was not his birth mother but she still regarded him as her own for centuries and he too saw her as Beta of his pack. If anyone struck Izayoi or harmed her in any way, their heads would roll at the bottom steps of their castle. Kaguya's actions only proved that she needed to be eliminated as soon as possible.

"Was Rin there?" He asked with eyes seemingly glowing.

Kikyo shook her head in the negative. "I haven't spoken to my sister since I got here. My sister doesn't know I'm here either and I want to keep it that way until my debut party. I'm…healthier but I got a mountain to climb ahead of me and I need to do this alone." She revealed honestly. "Thank god that Rin wasn't there too now that you mention it. You know how Kaguya feels about humans, especially half demons. If she finds out that Rin is the child of the activists Hoshiyomi and Tsukiyomi, Rin could be in danger. I know that Hoshiyomi was your best friend. I hope that you honor that friendship and at least protect Rin."

"You don't think she would be so callous to attack a child?" He questioned in a low grumble.

"I don't know. And that alone scares me because I don't know how low she would go to have her way." Kikyo pushed her drink to the side and made to stand for good this time. "Look, I don't want to interfere in your plans. As I said just leave my family out of it. We already lost so much." She spoke softly before reaching for her purse and taking out her phone to text Inuyasha about the offered ride home.

Sesshomaru made to stand as well. "Put you fears to the side. Your family will remain safe." He did have a level of respect for Kikyo despite her misgivings. Despite her history, Kikyo had many good connections and knew things obviously that he did not about Kaguya. Maybe it would do him well to have her on his side as he fought the silent battle to be rid of her for good. She managed to figure out more than others did proving her value. In very princely manner, he held his arm out to escort her. Kikyo took it as the silent olive branch he was offering. Her touch was warm and soft and her delicate scent filled his nose. She nodded in thanks and told him of his brother's card that was left behind to cover the tab. As they walked, they caught a few people looking and whispering. They walked in silence to the front of the restaurant and he even guided her out into the ornate hallway where the elevators were. The hall was empty yet her heels clicked along the marble floors sending echoes sounding about the halls. He pressed the down button and looked at the watch on his wrist for the time. "It is late miko."

Kikyo stopped in front of the double elevator with a soft smile. "I'll be fine, Sesshomaru. As always I enjoy our little get-togethers." She spoke with heavy sarcasm yet a little truth laced in her words as she referred to the many peace summits they attended together. The doors of the elevator opened up and Kikyo stepped inside silently. She pressed the button to go down before looking back at Sesshomaru with a soft smile.

"Hm." He responded knowing that he had a very powerful ally at his side. He looked around almost sensing something was amiss. As if someone was watching them.

She nodded in thanks. "We'll meet again, Sesshomaru. Until then be careful. Watch over Rin." She advised before the doors closed ending their interaction.

Kikyo sighed heavily releasing the energy she was holding from the sit down she just had with Sesshomaru. She leaned her back against the elevator watching the lights of the floors countdown. So many thoughts plagued her about her current present situation. Sitting there speaking with everyone made her question her priorities. She had come to reunite with her sister. But her sister wasn't exactly answering her calls at the moment. Her career was bouncing back and she had a new offer on the table to do bigger and better things. Maybe, this was a sign to focus on her career and let her sister be.

The doors of the elevator opened on the bottom floor. Kikyo stepped out to see others getting in the elevator as she exited. Kikyo pulled out her phone and saw the texts she had received from her brother wondering how she was doing and asking her to call him. Kikyo smiled at least happy that she had Souta there to have her back. She quickly texted him back and told him she would call him when she got home.

She backed out of the message and looked at her screen saver of a picture she had with her and Rin smiling together. She wanted to be in Rin's life even if Kagome didn't want her in hers. She scoffed at the thought. It would be typical of Kagome to run away. She did it before. Kikyo looked at the picture one final time wanting so badly to hold little Rin tightly in her arms. The desire flooded her so that she pressed the speed dial on her phone to Kagome's number. She would make one last attempt and after that she wouldn't bother. Besides, she trusted that they would be well now that all the Tashio's were looking out for them. She placed the phone to her ears and listened to the ringing noise of their line connecting. After a few minutes, the prompt came on directing her to leave a message. At the sound of the tone, Kikyo had accepted her fate with sadness. "Hi Kagome. Look, I'm just calling to let you know I'm ok and Souta is too. I just wanted to talk to you in person but I can see you're busy. Kiss Rin for me. Give her my love. Bye."

Kikyo hung up not one to drag things. She walked out of the building and allowed the warm night breeze to hit her on her face. She released a cleansing breath as her mind made final decisions. She needed to work out her issues with her sister but she knew her sister would run. But, maybe they would have their day. Regardless, she was going to continue to work on herself. She would no longer let her life pass her by because of grief. She dug in her purse and took out Shiori's card that she had given her. She nodded with determination before dialing her number. Her ears heard another prompt and with happiness she gave her response to Shiori's request. "Hi, Shiori. Regarding that offer you gave tonight…I'm in. Call me in the morning so we can get to work immediately."

Kikyo backed out of the app and looked at the time. It was later than she realized. She didn't know that her discussion with the Tashio's went longer than she realized. It was almost eleven. She turned off her phone with a smile and took a step forward to get a taxi. She looked at the night sky with hope blooming in her chest. Things were working out for her. Suddenly a red vehicle honked and pulled up to her side and rolled down the windows. Kikyo squinted to see who it was and then scowled watching to young man look at her nonchalantly.

"Inuyasha?"

The hanyou got out of the red sports car and walked to the other side to open the passenger door. "You were supposed to call or text so I knew you got home!" Inuyasha grunted at the naive woman. He opened the door to the passenger seat and ushered for her to get in.

"What are you doing here?" She asked walking forward and accepting his hand into the vehicle.

"Plans got changed so I came back to get my card. Then I happen to see you outside walking by yourself in the dark." He answered closing the door behind her and running back around to his side of the car. "Paris isn't exactly safe you know!" He berated clearly upset that something could have happened to her.

Kikyo didn't know what to make of his chivalry. She never had anyone care so much for her safety in quite a very long time. So whenever she did anything, she never considered much of others or even the safety nature of her actions. "Thanks." She responded putting on her seatbelt.

Inuyasha put on his own seatbelt and took out his phone. "So where to?"

She hated this.

Kaguya's feet beat against the sidewalk in her haste to get to Sesshomaru's restaurant. She had called his phone and left messages hoping to reach him but once again her attempts went unrewarded. She had returned to the palace earlier that day ready to smooth over some things with Izayoi. She realized that her little episode may have ruffled some feathers and she needed to fix things before everyone got word of what happened. She had gone out and made some purchases and gifts to apologize for her behavior to give to the human plaything of Lord InuTashio but the woman wasn't home. She loathed the idea of asking for forgiveness. She never begged a day in her life. She really didn't see why she should in the first place. It wasn't her fault at all. This was that mortal bitch's fault. If that filthy human didn't run her mouth nothing would have happened.

She called on her phone again walking through the bright halls of the old French building with a false smile on her face trying to calm her growing temper. She was told from her waiter that Sesshomaru was there. She just hoped the others weren't there as well. She needed to speak to him or Izayoi immediately to give her time to get her story straight. She knew the stupid miko most likely blasted her mouth to anyone who would listen. But no one would believe the drunkard over her this she was positive. And even if they did, she would politely bring up Kikyo's publicly checkered past and her alcoholic behavior. After all, there was liquor everywhere when she left. She smirked already forming the lie in her head. Later, she would get to work to figure out how to destroy the pesky woman. No one would be going to her party or buying her artwork anytime soon.

She sent a message asking for Izayoi to meet her for an early dinner but the damned woman refused saying she had to babysit that mutt. She didn't know what was more nauseating. Begging for forgiveness to a royal human insect or being denied on the account of the caretaking of an abomination. She wondered constantly, in what relation was the little eyesore to the family as all of a sudden the dirty blooded heathen just showed up in the house and had taken everyone's attention. She hoped it wasn't another blot on the Tashio roster. Two abominations were already too many. One of the wealthiest and most powerful families in the world tarnished their name by claiming to fall in love with a human whore disguised as a princess and completely disregarded the full blooded royal empress that bore the first son and heir to the throne. It was disgraceful. But she would fix that. She would put the family back on track and pure blood would roll through the veins of the royal family. Their power would combine to take over anything they wished. The humans and filth blotting his bloodline would soon be pushed out of the picture once Sesshomaru inherited his full birthright and give up on this silly little cooking gig.

Kaguya approached the building and walked inside on the west wing. People moved in and out of the building. She rode the elevator up hoping to catch her fiancé finally. She looked down at the sexy red dress she threw on and ruffled her hair a bit. She looked at her complexion in the metal reflection of the elevator doors. The miko's words rang in her ears about Sesshomaru not touching her which wasn't completely true. He did touch her.

Once.

Kaguya growled in frustration. She had to find other ways to fulfill her needs. But tonight that won't matter as she would get him one way or another. She walked out of the doors realizing that she was on the other side of the restaurant where the emergency exits were and needed to go around. Blowing in annoyance, she walked around and cloaked her scent hoping to surprise the Inu. She came around the corner when she stilled at the sight ahead of her. Anger boiled inside of her and rose up to her chest nearly causing the blood in her ears to pound loud like a drum. There was the vile priestess dressed in the same black dress as before being ushered so intimately by Sesshomaru on his arm. She quickly hid around the corner and pressed her back onto the wall behind her so she was out of view. With concentration, she listened to the conversation happening before her.

"It is late miko."

"I'll be fine, Sesshomaru. As always I enjoy our little get-togethers."

"Hm."

"We'll meet again, Sesshomaru. Until then be careful. Watch over Rin."

'Get-togethers'?

Kaguya clutched her fist almost seeing red. Was this what she was talking about? Is this how she knew Sesshomaru didn't touch her? Was it all because, he was touching her? But that would have been impossible. She would have known. She would have smelt her on him or him on her when they met. No amount of showering would have gotten rid of the scent. She would have known.

Her heart beat madly in her chest with anger and fear in her chest. She listened to the exit of the elevator and wanted badly to hunt the witch and spill her blood on the streets of Paris. The woman dare say she would meet him again and ask him to watch over that…half-breed. She needed to get to the bottom of things. But tonight she wouldn't let the opportunity pass to press her claws tightly into Sesshomaru and claim her right to the future throne. She already could barely keep tabs on him. She would not let him slip away this time. Steeling her emotions she rounded the corner. She flexed her aura and swayed in her walk. Kaguya smirked to see his gaze fall upon her and she vowed tonight, he wouldn't escape. Come morning time, she would deal with the miko and figure out the little runt's connection to the Tashio's.
