Here's another chapter. I know I said that they would get longer but I've decided to turn it into a sort of drabble. It's more fun that way. Enjoy!
Roses from the Heart
Chapter One – The Delicate Flower
The sun shined brightly on the city. Crisp winter air whirled around Sesshomaru as he stood on the balcony of his elaborate 35th floor apartment looking down at the lively city below. The stoic expression he wore seemed to be permanent. Cold golden eyes gazed at the ground until he spotted a small figure walking along the road, completely barefooted, no coat on, with only a shabby fleece throw wrapped around her upper body.
Something about the messy female sparked a weird kind of curiosity in him and he soon found himself leaving the balcony and walking into the main room of the apartment. Shoes were quickly placed on his feet and a heavy coat was wrapped in his hand in a matter of seconds. Walking out of the apartment, he headed for the elevator and pressed the button.
I wonder who she is and what force is compelling me to even go and see the female up close, he thought as he stepped into the elevator.
The ride seemed faster than usual and before he knew it, he was out the door of the building and walking down the sidewalk after the woman.
Easily catching up with her with his fast paced strides, Sesshomaru was at her side. When she felt someone walking along side her, the girl looked up and yelped, jumping back a few feet.
Sesshomaru took in her features. She was relatively beautiful even though she was covered in dirt and her hair was disarrayed. The chocolate coloured orbs that stared back at him were the most alluring he had ever seen before even if they were tired and a little out of focus at the moment.
"Are you alright," he asked the girl. She however did not speak. Instead her blue lips quivered before she fell forward completely unconscious into the snow covered ground. Sesshomaru tsked and rolled his eyes. "I guess that answers my question."
Taking the coat he held in his hands, Sesshomaru placed it over the girl then took her into his arms and turned back towards his apartment. Taking a quick glance at her, he sighed then returned home with her in his arms.
Each chapter will be equivalent to 500 words or less. And to answer a question I was asked in a review because I think I forgot to answer it in my review response, yes I will be kind of doing this story like I'm doing 'Stronger'. Everything that you are going to read in upcoming chapters will ultimately lead to what you read in the Prologue. Anyways, reviews are love!
