What had shaken him, though, was his childish response to her touching him – willingly - with the intent to reciprocate his soothing actions. It might sound amusing to some but it was humiliating to an adult inuyoukai to have reacted the way he had to a simple touch at the base of his neck. Even though it was what had broken his youki’s hold over him, the adolescent nature of his reaction made him cringe.
He, Sesshoumaru the current lord of the Westernlands had actually done something as base as wagging his tail…and for a human girl, no less.
It spoke volumes about her potential power over him that she had actually called up such an embarrassingly primal response to her attentions. Who knew what would happen if he didn’t maintain his distance.
-----------------------------------
Just HAD to put that here. The mere notion of Sesshoumaru wagging his tale is ludicrous as much as it is hilarious.
And the way the author laid out the scene was done perfectly. :3
