A Strange Mistake to Make
-------------
When she was younger, newborn, brand new, smelling like mother's milk and daddy's decay, she never thought he knew. She thought his silent watching eyes never found her when she went looking for her life. But her creator always knew.
The demon prince is looking at her. He never looks away unless he means it. Naraku never means anything.
Down the back of her neck, she can feel him breathing.
"Well, I'd love to stay and chat, but someone's listening," she tells Sesshoumaru.
He says nothing as she soars away. He never does unless he means it.
Kagura covets that.
