It's all in the.. by criticat

Chapter 1

Kagome fumbled with her keys as she stood in the doorway, her smile slightly forced as seconds ticked by. Surely he got the hint by now? It was simply impossible for the great almighty Sesshomaru to be this clueless. This was their third official date and seeing as she had known him for three years prior tonight, Kagome deemed it impossible for the most arrogant being to have ever walked the Earth to be nervous.

“I had a good time.”

“Hm.”

Kagome nearly rolled her eyes that. It appeared that they were back at the monosyllabic answer stage. Turning away, her skin heating as intent golden eyes bore into her, she slipped the key into the lock. As she stood in the doorway, feeling waves of his imposing youki wash over her keen senses, Kagome understood that in all the time that she has known him, this is about as far as she got with Sesshomaru. Gritting her teeth slightly as her mood worsened, Kagome finally decided that enough was enough. In a tone so cold that it would rival the one of the frost bitten demon himself, she managed a polite “Thank you for your time Sesshomaru. Bye.”

And with that she slammed the door into his face.

As the woman left his sight, her delectable scent came at him in a wave as the door shut. His thoughts cleared, the demon came to, growling mutely as he realised that he once again failed to make the woman realise what his intentions towards her were. Surely he made himself quite clear on the matter? Any inu demoness would be positioning herself for the taking by now, mewling in gratitude for him to bestow such honour on her person and yet this woman appeared to be quite clueless when it came to him and his desires. He, no matter how appealing the woman was, would not be reduced to the demeaning words that she appeared to seek from him. The mere notion was ridiculous.
