It was like any other day, I was walking around my fathers land knowing we had a guest coming but I didn't want to meet with whoever it was. This mean fancy kimonos, tea or sake, sitting quietly and being called girl or woman whenever I tried to join the conversation. It wasn't often that my father had guest over let alone another of our kind. We dog demons had to stick together the best we could and I know that the lord of the west was a powerful dog demon, so was his father before him. I had never meet them but my father was close friends with both. "Hoshi there you are. Father wants you to head to your room and stay there until our guest is gone." Kabuto says as he walks over to me and I frown a little as I look over my younger brother. I was the eldest child and heir to my fathers lands, it was the only reason I got to attend the meetings in the first place. I was also the only girl out of the four of us but I was a pure blooded demon unlike my two youngest brothers. Kabuto was the only other pure blooded demon like me but he was the second born so he could not inherit the land or fathers title. He looked like mother unlike me, he had her black hair where I had fathers. Also just like father and mother he had markings showing he was a demon where as I didn't.
"Why?" I ask and he gives a small sigh before walking over to me. "Father did not say. Sister just do as he asks of you. Your 100 years old already you should just do as father asks of you and your his heir it is normal to keep you safe." Kabuto says as he takes my hand. Kabuto was only 90 years old where our half brothers were 10 and 5. I was the one to care for them due to their mothers sickness and my mother had tried to kill them as well as their mother but I put an end to that. "I can protect myself just fine. Father said I was a wonderful swordsman and he taught me himself." I say but let my younger brother lead me to my room. Father had taught me swordsmanship since I was 5, I had known how to use a sword since Kabuto's birth. My swords went with me everywhere I went even a peaceful walk in the gardens. Perhaps I should look into learning a few other sword styles. It could come handy should I need to adapt in a fight. I couldn't let my mind wander to much seeing as how I was walking with my brother.
"I know sister but it's just him being sure. Besides father has something to talk to you about after dinner." He says making me sigh softly. "I do not see why I cannot stay in the garden until our guest leaves." I huff before moving my long silver white hair out of my face, before giving another sigh seeing as how he was getting. "Because father sai..." Kabuto starts but I cut him off with a growl. "I know what father wants. Do not forget who you are talking to dear younger brother." I growl as I pull away from him now that we were in front of my room. I turn on my heel quickly before walking into my room and slamming the door in my brothers face. I was known for having great patience but I could be quick to anger depending on the situation. I love my brothers and father with all my heart. I loved my mother as well but at times I wanted to kill her. She was easily angered and over reacted to anything and everything. She was angry with my father that she wasn't his true life mate and my younger brothers mother was. I had no problem with that but father needed a mate to live by his side as long as himself. But he should be allowed happiness with his true mate until she died. I wasn't that heartless and hoped should I end up in the same situation as father that my demon mate would be understanding, I would be with him.
With an annoyed huff I sit on my bed before slowly looking around my room for something to do until my father was done with his guest. In the end I clean both my swords, take a bath and change my kimono, pull up my hair and read a book. It was well past when we would eat and I was getting very hungry so I place both my swords where I carried them before leaving my room. Father could yell all he wanted later, many demons that come think I am my mother or a maid of some kind, it was safer for me if they didn't know I was the oldest and only daughter. I silently make my way to the garden where there were apple trees that I helped to care for. When I got there I picked an apple before I started to walk around until I stopped when I came face to face with a man who looked no older than 19 but I knew he was a demon due to the markings on his face. His golden eyes matching mine locked with mine and I feel shock run down my spine as I look at him. "What are you doing here?" I ask as my hand falls to grab one of my swords. "I am a guest of the owner of this land." He says and I relax a little letting my hand fall before shaking my head a little. "I see. You should not be walking around alone like this." I say before I start to turn. "Hoshi there you are. I see you ran into Sesshomaru." Father says making me look over at him before nodding my head. "This is the woman you talked of?" Sesshomaru asks as he slowly looks me over before nodding his head a little. "The terms are agreeable. I will be back soon." He says as he looks over at father who smiles. "Wonderful. Hoshi my darling daughter you will get to know Sesshomaru when he comes back." Father says. I give him a confused look but nod my head slowly and watch as father walk off with Sesshomaru talking about something. With a shake of my head I start to walk as I eat my apple until I reach the edge of my fathers land, having thrown the remains of my apple somewhere. I see a woman being attack so I rush over to help her only to feel blinding pain, the last thing I hear as my world goes black is Kabuto yelling my name in a panicked tone.
