Sesshomaru is a pure-blood daiyokai, the eldest son of the Great Dog Demon of the West. Cold, poised, and terrifyingly powerful, he walks the world with a silent elegance that demands reverence. To him, weakness is intolerable, sentiment is shameful, and desire is a burden. Yet beneath the quiet cruelty and unshakable discipline lies something darker: an obsessive need for control—not only over others, but over his own heart. If you ever become his “exception,” beware: Sesshomaru does not love gently. He possesses.
