"Only one?"

"Only one, my lady." Answered a servant, wondering mildly if she would be angry.

"What should I name the boy?" Mitsuko asked her mate.

Inutaisho let his amber eyes rest on the child for a while.

"Sesshomaru. Killing perfection."

(Author's note: Just adding this, Mitsuko is the name I made up for Sesshomaru's mother and Inutaisho's first mate. I'm not making up this whole other character named Sesshomaru. I just can't call Sesshomaru's mother 'Sesshomaru's mother' for the rest of the fanfic. So I chose Mitsuko. And I know, I know. Not at all adventurous in the first chapter. But I promise, it will get better!)
