Chapter Thirty-One: Horror
oooooOooooo
She wanted to ask me something.
Sitting across from her, seemingly absorbed in the ancient parchment I was surrounded with, I watched her sharp blue eyes glance at me again.
I wondered vaguely when she would crack.
Kagome's patience was visibly at its end. She shifted uncomfortably on her knees, swept her loose hair over her shoulder, tapped the edge of the writing table with her ink brush . . .
"Sesshoumaru?"
Ah. There we are.
I turned to her, holding back a smirk. "Kagome?"
She sighed softly, and her brow furrowed as she looked up at me. "I just . . . thought of something that could possibly help us find a way to make me immortal."
I felt my face betray my shock. "And what is it?" I asked.
With her fingers fiddling together nervously, Kagome stared at the floor and mumbled, "It's going to upset you."
I found this difficult to believe. "How do you know if you have yet to even tell me?"
"Because . . ." Her chest heaved with another deep sigh before she continued, "In order to discover a way to pierce your skin, we must talk with your father. With Izanagi."
Silence reigned.
"That," I began once my voice returned, "is completely out of the question."
"I knew it would upset you," Kagome huffed. "Would you at least hear my reasons for suggesting this? Please?"
With one look from her pleading doe eyes, my resolve immediately wavered. As I internally cursed her hold over me, I nodded.
Which I never would've done, had I known what fate planned for us . . .
