Chapter 57: Irreplaceable
Sesshoumaru watched the fanfare with which his brother’s pack sent off the miko and the boy. He did not care. It shouldn’t have mattered. But in his dreams, the two-tail became a two-headed dragon, the brown-eyed boy no longer brought him flowers, and the miko’s well became a grave.
He woke with a start to the shy patting of the fox kit, who sat sentinel at Sesshoumaru’s shoulder. Gradually, his rattling heartbeat slowed, but the sick feeling remained. Rising like specters, wrapping him in shame. Jaken, Ah-Un, and Rin—they had mattered.
Having failed them, would he now forget them?
