Chapter 924 My Beautiful Monster Part 25

SUMIRE

Lucifer\'s gaze immediately hardened but he shakes his head. He didn\'t say anything in his defence, and that was the right move. Anything else he would have said would sound like an excuse. So, she led him inside the room. Lucifer looked around.

"This place looks brighter. You\'ve been painting?" Lucifer asked.

Sumire nodded. "I started on the walls and furniture before I found some canvases."

Surprisingly there was a lot of painting supplies in that backroom she found. She watched Lucifer examine the canvases on the wall, stopping at a particular one. The large canvas, where she pained a castle made out of marble on a large hill surrounded by mountains in the background.

Seeing Lucifer examine is so closely, her cheeks coloured. "I-I know it\'s not very good. But, you don\'t have to judge it so harshly."

Rather this is embarrassing for her.

To her surprise when she got a better look at his expression there were tears in his eyes. She glanced back at him and then the painting.

"Do you know where this is?" Sumire asked.

"Yes."

"Is this place special to us?"? Her tone softened.

At those words Lucifer nodded, his face was unreadable. But there was no doubt that he was staring at the painting and back at her with so much emotion. She wanted nothing more than to hug and kiss him, to tell him it was okay. However, perhaps seeing Lucifer with other women triggered something. Because on that first night, she gained memories.

Memories of another life, another her. Lucifer already explained to her that they had been together in another life. But, she wasn\'t sure how much she believed it.

"You cheated on me." Sumire started.

Regaining random memories does this to a person. The experience even if it was centuries ago hurt deeper than any knife. Moreover, regaining those memories after witnessing the sight of her husband with other women.

"Tell me."

Sumire bitterly explains the memories she regained.

Lucifer paused but nodded. "During the start of our courtship, when I was young and foolish, yes. I was too young to recognize our soul thread. So yes, I did fuck random women when I was away from you."

Him admitting it makes this entire thing worse!!

"-and in this life you have a harem in your own home." Sumire accused.

"My heart, I wish you wouldn\'t remember the terrible parts of our relationship."

"I have yet to remember anything about our relationship from this life."

The past few days, she has been getting snippets mainly of their first life, a few of their second and the others come in shorter waves. But nothing from this one. It bothers her more than she lets on.

Lucifer paused. "Even if you do not regain it,it doesn\'t matter. We can make new memories."

\'It sounds sweet, but it\'s too convenient for him. Too convenient for him to spin a tale--\'

Sumire shakes her head. She can\'t let the servants, and that one memory bothers her. "I\'m sorry, I\'ve just been really tired recently. I keep remembering more, and it\'s keeping me up at night."

Not that he would know, she has spent the last few days in the tower and not their bed. But she has been sending Renna to check on him. Renna confirmed that Lucifer hasn\'t returned to their chambers.

She wants to shake away these ugly and bitter emotions. But it\'s difficult.

Lucifer pulled her towards him. Sumire didn\'t lean into his touch like she normally would have. But, she didn\'t pull away. Lucifer trailed kisses on her neck.

"What can I do to convince you that I haven\'t? cheated on you?"

"Let me meet this Makino woman."

Elena aside, the rumors she has been hearing from the other servants? It confirmed that this Makino person had a completely different standing than Elena and the others he fed from her.

"No." Lucifer refused.

At those words her gaze dimmed and she slipped from his hold, and walked across the room to the window.

"It\'s her isn\'t it? The one you were with when we had a disagreement in this life. You\'re worried if I meet her, I\'ll remember why we fought."

Why did she go away and date other guys? Even if she was angry at him, it doesn\'t make sense for her to date someone else. It must be because there was someone else. Just seeing that sight from the other day

Lucifer kept shaking his head.

"My heart, please don\'t do this."

Sumire sighed deeply, seeing his pale face. She walked over and caressed his cheek. Lucifer remains frozen on the spot.

"I\'m still angry. I know it was a long time ago, I know we were separated when you touched other women here. But, I\'m uneasy. I have a lot of anxiety." Sumire trailed off. "What happened the other day cannot happen again. If you are in need of blood, you must take from me."

"Are you sure about that?"

Sumire nodded. "I know you have been holding back."

Lucifer chuckled. "More than you realize."

"I am telling you, it\'s okay. I was really angry that day, I still am. But, I love you." Sumure said softly.

"I-"

"I understand, you\'re a being of darkness. So it\'s hard for you to say those words. But, I\'ll get you to say them. I know your heart is with me."

At those words Lucifer cupped her cheeks. "Can I kiss you now? I really want to."

This was her first time sensing such desperation from him. Sumire nodded and allowed Lucifer to kiss her. \'Fights are a sign of a healthy relationship.\' Jacks told her he spoke to Lucifer and that he truly seemed regretful for his actions and that he wanted to make things right. So she knew he would visit eventually.

She has to give him credit for giving her space despite knowing where she was hiding.

Lucifer suddenly bit her lip drawing blood and she sensed the shift in the atmosphere. "Do you need to feed?"

Lucifer smirked. "Are you offering?"

Sumire nodded.

"Are you sure about this?

"Y-you\'ve fed from me before." Sumire stammered.

"Oh queen, that was not feeding. That was a simple bite. If I actually feed from you, you won\'t be able to stand. Even so, do you still wish to?"

She recalled how he bit those women. She was angry but her envy was far stronger. She also wants to be bitten that way. Sumire cupped his face and looked at him directly. "Don\'t hesitate."

Just two words, and she felt Lucifer bit her properly for the first ever time. For the first time since she came here, she finally felt at home. Finally she felt safe.
