Courtship,

By Winterwing3000

Suitors, demons and humans alike, lined up at my door, carrying gifts for courting.

Flowers, jewelry, silk robes, fans, baskets of fruits, charms and books.

All for one human girl that has captured the hearts of many, even this Sesshomaru's.

However, this 'one human girl' was the fairest being that this Sesshomaru's ever found walking on the sacred grounds of the Western Lands. Her skin was pale, smooth and colored with the lightest red, showing her liveliness. The dark brown tresses were long and silky to the touch. The womanly curved body blessed her by the heavens, filling her young female body in the right places. The enticing small mouth that fitted perfected with her button nose and high cheekbones. But her eyes… they were the most luring of them all.

The black thick lashes that fanned over her innocent yet mature caramel orbs. The dark tawny eyes glowed and sparkled with happiness with hidden sadness. This Sesshomaru knew that even with the given exuberant gifts, her heart does not stray from mine.

She has rejected every one of her admirers with a gentle and sincere heart, apologies filled with kindness. Even the young lords of the North and South that had desired her were turned down. She has much loyalty to this Sesshomaru even though she knew that it was impossible for I, the taiyoukai of the West, to mate with a human.

This Sesshomaru's questions of why the refusals of such strong lords were only answered with that you had yet to find the right one. To replace this Sesshomaru in your heart…

My father has already been proven weak and now destroyed for taking in a human as a mate. This Sesshomaru will not ever follow his footsteps, though this Sesshomaru is sure that he has already fallen.

If only I could make you mine, then perhaps this Sesshomaru could prove that it will not be a weakness but strength to have a human mate.

But that will never happen, since this Sesshomaru has too much pride to even return the simple kiss that you have asked for before you will forget about me…

Note: Rin's (of course) at the age of an adult, Sesshomaru's 700+
