Sesshoumaru let go of the boy’s hair, petting it twice before withdrawing.
But Kohaku scooted closer. “I’m part of it, aren’t I? Both me and Kagome-sama?”

“Explain.”
“I’m not sure I can. I think I’ve changed, too.”
“Hnn.”
He cautiously asked, “Doesn’t it make sense that there are four souls involved?”
Sesshoumaru frowned. “Does it?”
With a small shiver, Kohaku said, “It does to me.”
