Chapter 1074 Tokyo Illusion Part 12
SANO
Since meeting Ibuki Sumire again, his life has certainly turned upside down. His involvement in the black alice organisation for one has changed. Now that he has become an evolved human, Lucifer doesn't hesitate in sending him out on awful missions. At first it startled him, after all he grew up fairly sheltered. But, ever since he accepted being experimented on, his entire world has changed. He has experienced horrors that he didn't think was possible, and now that he has power, true power? Even those horrific sights don't bother him anymore.
It's dangerous. He has been warned not just by Mamoru but other evolved humans how dangerous it is to get drunk on power. But, he has already gotten this far. 'I have already given everything up for Sumire.'
Sano didn't want to attend this party because he was afraid that he would lose control and pounce on Sumire. But, his gaze fell on Mashima. 'This guy has strangely been helpful. Although I still dislike his presence.'
"Toh!" A familiar voice beamed.
Sano felt his heart skip several beats hearing that voice. His girl, it truly feels like it has been decades since he last saw her.
'I know she has been very busy with her career, but did she really have to ignore all my messages?' Thinking about that made him very upset. He thought they were on better terms now.
Sumire beamed happily, but the girls happiness wasn't directed at him but at Mashima.
"Hi beautiful, you look good."
Sumire laughed. "Mmm. It's because-" She paused seeing who he came with. "San?"
".."
Sumire walked over and took his hands. "Thank you for coming. I'm really happy that you came."
Sano managed to nod. He wanted nothing but to hold her in his arms but felt not only Mashima's gaze on his but a piercing one at his back. Even without turning around he knew it belonged to Terashima.
"San have you been drin-"
"No." Sano immediately cut her off.
Sumire bit her lip but nodded. "Come with me for a bit?"
Sano nodded and followed her out of the hall. The entire time he was focusing on the warmth of the girl's hands. After walking for a few minutes, Sumire lead him inside one of the waiting areas. The moment they were inside, he pinned her against the wall and his lips are on his neck. Taking her blood, taking what should be his.
Sumire.
Sumire.
She tastes so good, Sano hadn't realized how hungry he was until now. How long has it been since he last fed? When he doesn't drink for a long time, it feels like he is slowly losing whatever humanity should be left inside him.
"San, we have discussed this. You need to feed--" Sumire said.
"I only want you."
"I understand. I'm sorry I've been busy."
Sano bites her harsher and she moans softly. "San-- if you--Yuhi will--"
He knows that, so he won't be leaving any obvious marks.
"I'm frustrated with you." Sano admitted.
Not just frustrated, he is furious. But he hasn't seen her in so long and doesn't want to destroy this moment. Especially since he doesn't know when he will get another one with her. Sano loosened her clothes and Sumire shuddered.
"Listen, remember we said not to-"
"Your talking too much. Keep this up and I will kiss you."
Sumire looked at him frustrated but stayed still. He continued drinking from her and focused on the taste of her blood. She tastes so good. He truly won't be able to live without her. After drinking for a few minutes, he stopped.
"I've missed you." Sano mumbled.
The words felt very foreign to him. But, he knew he had to say it. She seemed surprised but laughed.
"I know. I really am sorry. I'm glad Ru told you about the launch event."
"I knew about it, I just didn't think I'd be welcomed."
"Of course you are." Sumire extended her hand our and helped him fix his collar. "Yuhi is angry at you, but he won't cause a fuss in public."
"Your husband is very understanding." Sano mocked.
Sumire bit her bottom lip. "It's not, we-won't be getting married anytime soon. I asked him to delay it."
Sano blinked when hearing those words. 'I thought they'd get married right away when Terashima returns. It seems everyone else thought the same too, but there hasn't been any news. I should feel relieved, but I know she isn't delaying the wedding because of me.'
He spotted her glancing back at the hall and noticed where her gaze was. It wasn't on Terashima but it was on Mashima. Sano's gaze dimmed. It's not like he hadn't noticed.
'I am in love with her. I am always watching her so I knew. I noticed. The way Sumire looks at Mashima, the way she treats him is different from everyone else. With other people she puts a wall between her and them. But with Mashima, those walls are non existent.'
Sano bent down to bite her again and Sumire cried out. "San, remember that we spoke about you being a bit more careful?"
"I remember," He mumbled.
'But, I can't stand you caring for another man.' Terashima is her boyfriend, even if he dislikes it. But Mashima? Mashima shouldn't be anything to her. Mashima should be on the same level as him, and yet why is that guy treated so differently? It's not fair.
Sumire ran her fingers through his hair. "I know your upset. I know that you know."
Sano grumbled. "You didn't have to say that part."
"I don't want to lie to you San. I can't do much for you but the least I can do is be honest. Whatever your thinking about me and Toh, your right." She takes a deep breath. "I do still like him."
Sano's gaze darkened and he clenched his fist. Damn it, damn it. Isn't it bad enough that he has to deal with Terashima? Why is there another one? At first Sano was worried that Sumire still liked Mamoru, but it didn't take him long to discover that she only worried about him as a friend.
Sumire no longer has romantic feelings for Mamoru, that means one less rival.
