Eternal Melody

Chapter 999 My Beautiful Monster Part 100

LUCIFER

Sumire's cheeks coloured and Lucifer used this chance to send images of them entangled in red silken sheets. Sumire scrambled away from him and coughed.

"Well, I am sure you have other things to attend too."

Realizing that Sumire wasn't offering to go with him. Lucifer immediately understood. So, she is going to stay here and tend to Narasaki's wounds. He sighs deeply and Sumire mumbled an apology through the bond.

Lucifer swept the girl in his arms and kissed her again, deeply. 

"Husband, you need to get going."

Lucifer sighs as he regretfully breaks their lips apart. "You can stay here if you want. But do not be too long, you still need to get ready."

Sumire grinned. "The dress is very pretty, but that's not what will make you swoon."

Lucifer raised his eyebrow. "Oh?"

Sumire giggled and leans forward and whispers in his ear. "The matching undergarments are quite something. All that lace-"

All sorts of images flashed through his mind at his wife's rather descriptive explanation. Lucifer bent down to kiss her again but she moves away laughing.

"I will see you at the ceremony, husband."

He almost forgot about this playful side of her. Lucifer nodded. "Very well."

HINO

After Lucifer left, Sumire started to take some medical supplies from her bag. She must have realized what Lucifer was about to do and brought those with her. 

'That bastard...'

"Are you alright?" Sumire asked, breaking the silence as she put some salve on his wounds.

"Yeah, how did you--" 

"I felt something was wrong when he left so I followed him." Sumire explained.

"..I heard, three days huh."

The girls cheeks coloured and it was so wrong. So very wrong. Like that kiss from a few minutes ago.

"The ceremony is tonight so I won't be able to stay here long. I ran out in the middle of my dress fitting, so I need to go."

Hino felt his heart speed up hearing those words. 

"Ceremony?" Hino repeated. 

Sumire nodded. "I asked him for a wedding ceremony, since it seemed we hadn't had one."

Bad feeling confirmed. If they end up having that ceremony, then they will truly be married. When Sumire regains her memories, she will be devastated. Ever since they were captured, he has stayed put and made no move to escape. However, it seems like he has no choice. He can't allow her to go through this ceremony.

'I don't want to add more to her burdens.'

''"Do two people do that often?" Hino trailed off. "You know, that kind of kiss that belongs in a bedroom not a public place."

"I think he was trying to provoke you." Sumire replied calmly. 

However Hino was watching her expression and saw her flushed cheeks. 

"But you went along." Hino pointed out.

Or rather by the it, she was the one taking the initiative. 'I have only ever seen her like that with Yuhi.' It was a disturbing sight that he won't be able to get out of his mind even when they get out of here. It's actually odd that Lucifer hasn't brought Sumire here to show off before.

"He was already angry." Sumire bit her lip as she ripped the edge of her dress to form a makeshift bandage.

"I'll send a healer down here. For now make do with this."

Hino weakly raised his shackled hands to wipe her face and her cheeks reddened. "Oh."

"Are you in love with him?" Hino hated to ask. But, after seeing that kiss, he has to ask. 

"Hino, you know me right?"

At those words he slowly nodded his head. Does she have her memories back? No, if she does she wouldn't be asking him this. Hino looked at her cautiously and Sumire laughed.

"I have some memories back." Sumire corrected. "I don't exactly remember everything yet. But," She takes out a music player from her pocket and clicks the play button. Hearing Yuhi's singing, Hino's eyes widened.

"Do you remember Yuhi?" Hino asked.

Sumire nodded. "Mm."

A relieved sigh escapes Hino's lips. If Sumire remembers Yuhi, that's enough.

Sumire placed her hand on her stomach. "The thing is. I'm pregnant."

Hino froze hearing her words. He knew they had done it. On more than one occasion, Lucifer has come over and flaunted Sumire's scent on him. Lucifer has even used the power he stole to show Sumire being on his bed.

"You have Yuhi, Sumire. Think clearly please."

Hino didn't care about the consequences of him talking about Yuhi anymore. Moreover, 

How can she willingly give birth to the child of the man who lied to her? He cannot allow her to go through with this.

"Are you sure you remember him?" Hino asked cautiously. After all, if she did. Shouldn't she feel disgusted? 

"I do, I remember him." Sumire laughed softly with flushed cheeks. "It's hard to forget someone that handsome, and the things he used to do to me with his hands-"

Hino raised his hand. "Right, I believe you. That's enough details."

Even with only a few of her memories, she still acts like a love struck teen in front of Yuhi.

"Yes. You see, I do plan to return to him. But before then I will go through with the ceremony and give birth to this child."

Hino couldn't say that she was lying. After all, he could see the her with memories doing something like that.

"Will you really go back?" Hino asked.

Sumire nodded. "Lucifer said he will contact our friends through Toh."

As Sumire explained the details of Lucifer's plan. Hino paused. It does seem real. But, he can't trust Lucifer not to change his mind. 'Especially since Lucifer has become more attached to her.'

"Before then, do you want me to return the rest of your memories?" Hino asked.

Just in case this exchange fails and Sumire has to escape on her own. She should do so with her memories in tac.

Sumire shakes her head. "No. Not yet."

Does she understand if she does regain her memories she won't like Lucifer anymore? Although he isn't too sure about that anymore. 

"I will be here. If you change your mind."

Sumire suddenly hugged him. "Stay safe Hino. I will get you out of here soon."

"Yeah."
