SUMIRE
An entire week, four extra days since Lucifer said he would return. But, there is still no sign of him. Neither of his n have returned either. Toh has tried getting a ssage several tis but there hasn't been a reply. Sumire tossed and turned on the large bed. The first day she moved into Lucifer's room, she noticed how large the bed was. But lying there beside Lucifer every night, she stopped noticing the large space. She just focused on him, and the way he made her feel when he touched her. She sighs deeply as she changes the song on the music player.
Listening to Sora's voice calms her down. But, it truly feels like a betrayal to Lucifer when she listens to his music. However, it's the only thing she can do to stop herself from being overwheld with all the mories she has been getting back.
She followed Toh's instructions and made sure she didn't fall asleep when she got those migraines. It was almost like her falling asleep and taking dication was what stopped her from retaining her mories properly. The dication Lucifer told her to take whenever she got those migraines. Sumire sighs deeply, even though she knew he lied to her. After crying about it for a few days, Sumire realized she still couldn't hate him.
If she was truly furious, she would have left by now. After all Lucifer gave her a way out. He told her what to do if he didn't return and sothing happened to him. She ought to have followed his instructions. But she can't do that, she needs to et him face to face and discuss this properly.
He lied, but people don't lie for no reason. Liars aren't necessarily bad people, and from the mories she regained? It's not like she is a completely honest person either.
The mories she regained huh? Sora- no, 'Terashima Yuhi.' It's not much but she finally has Sora's na from this life and managed to regain mories with his face. Toh eventually relented and allowed her to at least look at his picture.
So handso. Sumire felt her cheeks colour as she frantically shook her head. She needs to stop thinking about Sora- Yuhi like that. Even if she doesn't rember the circumstances that lead her back to Lucifer. There is no doubt that right now she is Lucifer's wife. Besides, she has already shared Lucifer's bed so many tis now. Even if there was sothing between Yuhi and her, how can she go back to him with a clean conscience? It's impossible.
Moreover, Sumire recalls Lucifer's words before he blocked the bond. 'I love you.' That must be the first ti he said those words to her properly. Although he has said things like 'how can you doubt my love for you.' The words, 'I love you' have been difficult for him to say. It's not like she is any better, so she has never pressured him on it. But, after hearing him say it so sincerely. She wants to hear him say it to her directly.
'I want to talk to him properly, and we can decide where to go from there. Even if I regain all my mories, I probably won't leave him so easily.'
But, where is he? Has sothing happened to him? It's already half way into the second week, and he was supposed to co back on the fifth day. At most he would only be delayed for an extra day. However there has been no signs from him at all.
She tried speaking into his mind but the shield was still there. That confirms he is still alive but she is very uneasy.
Suddenly the doors burst open. Sumire jumped to her feet half expecting it to be her husband. But instead it was Jacks.
"What is it?" Sumire asked calmly but she sensed Jacks tense emotions.
"Lucifer is back. But-"
Sumire didn't wait for Jacks to finish that sentence and bolted out of the room.
Back.
He's back.
He has finally co ho to her.
Lucifer could have been anywhere, but she felt like she knew where he was. She rushed down the hall at full speed and could hear Jacks rushing after her. She knew she ought to have slowed down and allowed him to explain. But it didn't matter. She will see with her own eyes. She halted in front of the entrance of the throne room which was wide open.
Even from out here in the corridor she could sll the heavy scent of blood. Thump. Thump. Her heart beat increased and her body trembled. She was afraid of what she would find.
Sumire shakes her head. She has to do this. She stepped inside the room. The sight that greeted her horrified her. Toh was leaning Lucifer against one of the stone pillars in the throne room. Lucifer's entire face was covered in dirt, wounds and blood. The blood on his clothes concerned her greatly. How deep are his wounds that it's showing through his black clothes? His face colour is devoid of any life.
Toh cursed. "I've never seen you like this before, what the hell happened Hiriji-san?" He turned to soone and that was when Sumire noticed soone else was there.
A man with caral coloured hair wearing a lilac coloured cloak. Sumire stared at him. Sothing, there is sothing familiar about him. Is he soone from her past? But, unlike the other tis where she felt like she encountered soone she knew before. Unlike the feeling when she saw Hino, this one is different.
It's different because although he feels nostalgic, there is also a deep hatred. Hatred she didn't think existed inside her. It reminded her of the darkness she unleashed when she killed the mbers of Lucifer's harem in cold blood.
Despite what she told him, it was an accident. She just wanted to speak with the people there and see if she could co to an agreent. She never intended to chase the won from the harem away. Even if they can't be friends, she wanted to at least co to an agreent. But those won imdiately mocked her and even tried to get her raped. That was the last straw.
