Chapter 1008 My Beautiful Monster Part 109
SUMIRE
As she thought. Norah mentioned that she only ever had one child in her seven lives. Sumire noticed that her memories of the first life is the only one she barely remembers. It's probably because her spirit from the first life was on a completely different level of power, and the one with the most regrets.
Aoi made eye contact with her and Sumire nodded as she turned to Norah.
"Liking someone isn't something to be ashamed of." Aoi started. "Don't be ashamed about getting a soul bond with another person who wasn't your original partner. It simply means that you have a large enough heart to love another person. You are someone who is filled with love."
Norah nodded with tears in her eyes. "Can I really see him?"
Sumire knew what she was indirectly asking, if this was allowed. Even if Aoi-san is the guardian, there are certain rules she has to follow.
Aoi's gaze softens. "Of course you can. I know there are rules but there is a loophole. Since Sumire-chan, the current body agreed to this."
Norah turned to her and hugged her tightly. "Thank you so much. Thank you."
Sumire nodded and Aoi pointed to a blue circle surrounding the tree. "If you stand there, the magic circle will take you back."
Sumire raised her eyebrow. "You're too prepared."
Aoi winked. "A girl has to be."
Norah takes a deep breath before walking over to the platform. Sumire watched her carefully. Norah is a lot more graceful appearance wise. But, there is no doubt this is her. Still she is a bit envious. If she still had this level of grace, perhaps she would have fit in more in the elite circle.
'Lucifer likes this type of woman.' If she didn't have Norah's soul inside her, there is no doubt that Lucifer wouldn't have paid attention to her. Sumire paused and shook her head. Why is that even important? She needs to focus.
Aoi pulled her aside. "The last time you came here, I saw you hesitating to cut a certain thread. Mind discussing that with me?"
Sumire exhaled deeply. She knew she wasn't alone. The guardian, Aoi is always watching somewhere.
"What is there to discuss? Aoi-san, you should know, since your the guardian."
Aoi's gaze softened. "What I said just there, wasn't just for your past self. Sumire-chan, I know there is someone else in your heart. Someone who is very important, someone you still love. Someone who you've never been with in your past lives."
Hearing the last part, Sumire couldn't hold her tears back.
"I'm really fickle aren't I? I love Yuhi-san, I do. I know that but I towards that person-"
'I can't let him go. I tried, but he suddenly came back into my life and the more time we spent together. The more I realize, I am still not truly over him.'
Aoi shakes her head and hugs her tightly. "It's okay, you don't have to decide right away. There is no time limit, and even after you choose. You can still have a bond with the other person. You don't have to dismiss him from your life."
But, that would be too selfish.
A bright light draws their attention and Aoi looks back at Norah standing in the circle. "It's time. Sumire-chan, you will be in a temporary sleep until Norah-chan's wishes have been fulfilled. I will carefully watch over your bodies here in the space to make sure nothing goes wrong. Remember you two, there is a time limit and if you go over it. There is a chance for your souls to be stuck in between realms, and you cease to exist."
Sumire nodded and turned to Norah. She leaned forward and whispered something in the girl's ear.

LUCIFER
Lucifer kept pacing back and forth around the room distressed. Why isn't she waking up? A few hours had gone by already and the girl was still fast asleep. 'Did I do something wrong? I have practiced a few times with Narasaki's powers since I stole them. But, perhaps it wasn't enough.' He could go to the dungeons and speak with Narasaki. However, recalling the exchange from the morning made him sick. If he goes down there now, he may end up killing him, and that would cause an even larger rift between him and Sumire.
He already planned his speech on how to explain this situation. No doubt she will get angry. But, she will have the memories they made together the past two months. Sumire will understand, she has to.
'I am prepared for her to hate me, and leave me immediately. She could, she certainly has the strength to do so.' While he intended to give her back. He also wants to wait until after she gives birth. She is more vulnerable than she thinks with a child in her belly. He has no doubt she would still be able to fight, but at what cost?
His thoughts break off seeing the girl stir. This is it-
Soon Sumire sat up. She rubbed her eyes confused before looking around the room frantically. Finally her eyes landed on him. A look of fury flashed through her face, and Lucifer braced himself for her anger.
"Bastard! Where the hell have you been?!!! I've been looking for you for two centuries now!!! Two!!! How dare you leave me after swearing you'd be with me forever!!" Sumire exclaimed.
Lucifer blinked surprised. He felt his heart beat speed up hearing the girl's words. Huh? Is she- is this-?
"Norah?" Lucifer said saying the name of the wife he has missed for two centuries.
Sumire nodded with puffed cheeks. "It's me you fool, didn't you-"
Lucifer cuts her off by crushing his lips to hers, kissing her deeply. He is touching her everywhere, her hair, breasts, inner thighs. Norah. It's Norah, his wife. He never thought he would ever hear her voice again.
Sumire is Norah, he certainly found traits that were the same. But this is different. Her appearance is still Sumire. However this voice, warmth and taste is Norah. He was feeling numerous emotions he didn't know still existed inside him.
