Eternal Melody

Chapter 926 My Beautiful Monster Part 27

LUCIFER

A few hours went by and Sumire still hadn't woken up. He was worried but knew better than to resort to calling the healer from his elite guard. Now isn't the time for her to meet people she knew from her past life. Sumire told him after he drank her blood properly for the first time. That she initially didn't believe in the talk of reincarnation. It hurt him a little hearing her say that but he understood. It's the reason why he is keeping this a tight guarded secret.

The people living in this time will not accept it. He is thankful that she finally started to remember bits and pieces. Otherwise it would have caused friction in their relationship.

Sumire wakes up gasping heavily.

Lucifer lays her back down. "Ssh."

"L-Lucifer." Sumire stammered.

"Hush, nobody can harm you again."

"Blood, there is blood on your face."

Right, he only returned a few minutes ago. He spent the last few hours torturing those people before they begged to die. It wasn't a clean death, and he made sure to inflict as much pain as he possibly could.

"I'll bathe in a second. I simply wish to give you your medicine." Lucifer turned to the bottles on the bedside table.

"Lucifer--the people that tried to.."

"I took care of everything.

Sumire caressed his blood stained face. "Your so beautiful. My beautiful monster." She whispered.

His lips curved to a smile. "Does my current appearance please you?"

"It does. It should frighten me, but I like this." Sumire kissed him/

Sumire's lips trailed against the blood on his neck, lower and lower. She paused. "Can I-" she pointed to his clothes and he smirked.

"You may."

She was looking at the blood stains with great interest. "Your covered in blood."

"Indeed."

"It'll be a waste to wash it off."

Lucifer chuckled knowingly. "Then, do you wish to clean me?"

Sumire nodded in agreement, her lips eagerly bit him. Lucifer moaned. She has no idea what her bites do to him, that her mere presence is enough to drive him into a lust driven madness.

"Lucifer, I don't understand this. But, you're not going to stop me are you?" Sumire briefly parted her lips from his neck.

"I won't. You may drink as much as you want."

Like he explained to her before, drinking can get intimate. It didn't take long before he found himself touching her.

"Nnn..your hands are…"

He gripped her tighter and she moaned. "Lucifer.".

"You are gorgeous."

"Your hurt, we shouldn't-" Sumire protested.

Lucifer shakes his head. "Tonight, I shall show you exactly why you belong to me."

He leaned down and traced his mark on her shoulders. "Do you want to know why I left the mark here?"

"Was there a reason?"

"It's to prevent other men from marking you."

Sumire tilted her head. "Other men." She repeated. "If I dated Toh, does that mean we haven't been together for as long as I thought?"

Lucifer frowned. "We had a bit of a misunderstanding. So we were separated for a few years. You met Toh then."

"I see."

He leaned forward and brushed his lips against the mark. Sumire immediately shuddered and he chuckled. "I have yet to do anything."

"I've been thinking. I may not remember much. But, you've become important to me."

'How things have changed. She was a scared little kitten just a month ago.'

Sumire ran her fingers through his hair.? "Thank you, for taking care of them for me."

"You're welcome my Queen."

"I froze. I could have handled it myself. But, those people, I think I knew them from somewhere."

'Her memories.'

He paused seeing her drooping eyelids and urged her to rest. As much as he wished to touch her tonight. He also understood that she needed her rest.

Lucifer kissed her forehead gently. "I want you to remember soon, Norah." He whispered softly.

_____________________________

Lucifer gets used to watching her train, and spar with his men. Although, it takes him a lot of self-control, not to gouge their eyes out for looking at her too long. Sumire laughs down the bond. She must have sensed his frustration, since she stopped sparing and walked over.

Her arms wrapped around his neck, and he immediately drew her close. "What's wrong, my husband?"

"They touched you." He growled and she rolled her eyes.

"That'll happen, since we are sparing."

"Maybe I should lift that privilege."

"I'm not your prisoner, I'm your wife remember? You said you'd respect my decisions."

Lucifer grunted. "That I did. But, I do not like the idea of others touching you."

Sumire nuzzled her face against his. "Don't be so silly,? it's only light contact."

'Even that shouldn't be allowed. But then again, she still doesn't remember anything about the blood bond.'

Lucifer slipped his hand between her thighs and Sumire sighed in content. She seems more accepting of his touches recently. Perhaps she is getting used to him. That's definitely a good sign.

"Do you want some blood?" Lucifer noticed how her lips were trailing against his neck.

Sumire paused. "That's not it, I just wanted to smell you."

"Do you like my scent?"

"There's something addicting about it, and I also want to do things for you. I don't really get it, but just stay still."

Lucifer felt his heart beat increase at her words. So she is feeling the bond. He allows her to do whatever she wants, and enjoys the feeling of her hands touching him in different places.

Sumire paused. "I want to cook for you again, will you let me?"

"Of course."

"and can I feed you too?"

Lucifer chuckled. "If you allow me the same privilege."

"I don't really understand why I want to do all these things so suddenly. It's weird, I'm being weird."

'Is it because I saved her again? Did that trigger the bond between us?'

Either way something has changed? between them. It's a good change, because he certainly has no intention of allowing her to leave him. He intended to keep his promise to Toh, but that was before she truly accepted him.

That was before he realized the bond was acting up. Now he knows, even if he lets her return. It will be difficult for her to control the urges from the bond. They would still have to see each other.

"Lucifer. You seem distracted." Sumire caressed his hair.

"When you use violence, it does things to me."

Sumire rolled her eyes. "You have quite the odd fetish. I don't know how to feel about that."
