Eternal Melody



TOH

It is not the first time he has been on the receiving end of her anger. They did have their fights during the time they dated. But, this was the first time seeing her this angry. She has never cursed at him like this before. What has gotten her so mad- Toh paused. No, this isn't the first time. Now that he thought about it, she acted this way when Alicia showed up.

"Were you jealous beautiful?" Toh asked knowingly.

"No."

Toh chuckled. "Even your lies sound pretty."

"Fuck off, don't go near me." Sumire repeated sharply as she turned away.

Toh shook his head and dragged her over to the wall, as he backed her against the wall. He pierced his neck with his fingers causing the blood to flow.

"Drink."

She didn't waste anytime.

"I knew you were hungry, I could feel it."

Sumire hissed and he chuckled again. "You don't have to be jealous. You know my rules, I'm loyal to one woman at a time."

'Since I met you, I have only been loyal to you.'

"I know I said I changed, but I was talking about my stance in the underworld and my strength. I wasn't talking about my principals."

Seeing her shoulders relax, Toh paused. So, it really was jealousy? It seems Mamoru was right after all. 

'The reason why Ki never said the words I love you to me was because deep down Toh, she was still thinking of you. Still thinking of what could have been, and how it didn't feel right. Since she never said the words to you.'

It didn't matter to him if Sumire never said those words to him. By the end of the relationship, he already understood how deep the girl's feelings for him were.

After a few minutes Sumire suddenly drew back.

"N-next time stop me!" Sumire exclaimed.

Toh raised his eyebrow. "Why do I have to do that?"

"B-because--out of habit I might-" She stammered.

"You might?"

"I-I might do more."

"And that scares you?"

Sumire nodded. "I-"

Toh cupped her cheeks. "Don't be afraid. If it ever got to that, I'd stop you."

"Really?" Sumire questioned.

Toh nodded. "Consent is important, and as much as I miss you touching me. I do understand the situation." He lightly brushed his lips against hers. "Do you understand? Never doubt me on this."

Sumire shyly nodded her head and he let's her go. She extended her hand out and tugged on the edge of his shirt.

"C-can you tell me about that woman just now?"

"One of Lucifer's bloodbank donors. I am sure you guessed but she is also a hanyou female. Hanyou females are very rare as you know and even amongst them, it's rare for them to offer themselves to someone who isn't there other half."

Sumire frowned. "Then why was she touching you!"

Toh blinked and his lips curved to a smile. "She was touching me?"

"Yes she was!" Sumire exclaimed. "Her hands were on your trousers, and then shirt buttons. Moreover she was pressing her breast against yours and she kept licking her lips like she was about to drink your blood-"

'I have to stop myself from grinning like an idiot.' Seeing her like this in rage mode just because a woman got close to him. It seems Sumire truly does still have some feelings for him. Otherwise she wouldn't behave this way.

"I would never have let her get that far. I must admit my mind was so occupied, that I was only half listening to her and I didn't see her touch me until later on."

"That's a lie. What could you have possibly been thinking about so deeply that you didn't notice someone touching you?"

"If you must know, I was thinking about what we did the previous night and how beautiful you are when your drinking from me. How your hands touched-"

At those words Sumire raised her hand stopping him in mid-sentence. "You don't have to say anymore!"

Toh chuckled. She really is behaving cutely today. 

Sumire parted her lips and looked longingly at his neck. "Can I have a bit more?"

"Sure."

Toh proceeded to back against the wall but instead he found himself being pinned to the ground with Sumire hovering over him. Before he could react, he felt her teeth clamp down on his throat. 

Normally when she takes his blood, Sumire is very careful. But, perhaps it was because of what just happened. The girl was more aggressive.

Drinking blood involves pleasure, regardless if it's from the one feeding or the one being fed from. This reminded him of the time Sumire ended up poisioned. Reminded him how they got close and broke the walls she placed between them. How her flushed skin felt against his, how he teased her tongue and how he had to suck the areas where the poison hit.

Had Hamano not been there, it would have certainly gotten further. He doesn't even remember pulling away from her, or how he even got to his bed. 

Perhaps Sumire was thinking the same as him, since she moved away from biting his neck and started to bite from other places. Toh allowed her and ran his fingers through her brown locks, and on her back. When he felt her arousal heightening, and feeling his pants become lose. 

Toh used his ability to snap her out of it. He simply sent a few images to her mind, reminders of Terashima and Sumire snapped out of her daze.

Sumire looked at him and then at their position, and his unbuttoned trousers and his shirt before bolting up. He couldn't miss the horrified look on her face, and the pain in her eyes before leaving.

Toh quickly fixed his appearance before chasing after her. Sumire is fast, but he has gotten a lot faster in their time apart. It didn't take long before he caught up with her. 

Toh grabbed hold of her wrist. "Enough is enough."

".."

"Listen to me, Sumire. I won't do anything unless you want to."

"Isn't that what the problem is? I don't know what I want anymore."

Toh felt his heart beat increase at her words. 'Does that mean she is willing to give me a chance?' He shakes his head. No, he can't take advantage of this. It wouldn't be right.

"Terashima is what you want, and I'm just a fleeting distraction. Can't we leave it at that?"

Sumire bites her lip. "But that means you--"

"I'll end up hurt?"

Sumire nodded.

Toh cupped her cheeks. "Then hurt me Sumire. Do your worse. I'll take it all."

Sumire was about to say something when her phone rang. She briefly glanced at it. "Hino is telling me to go back. It's almost time."

Toh nodded. "Let's go."

"A-are you taking me home after this?"

His lips curved to a smile. "Yes. I hope you don't mind me tagging along."

As Sumire spoke, he noticed how she kept stealing glances at him and he chuckled. She really is very cute.
