The ring that Kagome had asked about mere hours ago was sitting on his dresser. It was made years ago before he had even met her. Sesshomaru had made the ring by using his acid to pick away at the jewelry until it was finely cut. He didn't have to make the entire piece since it was practically impossible to do so. Demon society recognized that one man couldn't do everything sometimes but it was required he try to do something with the jewelry hence his cutting.

Afterwards, Sesshomaru had asked Totosai to make the topaz stone into a ring when he had decided he needed to find a mate. Holding it in his hand he pictured it on Kagome's finger. The ring would accentuate the slender hand and bring everyone's gaze upon it in a good way. Smiling, he tucked it back into its box just as Rin opened the door.

"Daddy!" He caught the girl as she barreled into him wondering what caused this reaction.

"Grandma said she's going to make new kimonos for me! The kind that you have." Sesshomaru's eyes narrowed. What was his mother planning now?


A/N: I'm going back to the US tomorrow so no updates for 2-3 days until I'm able to get my bearings straight again.
