Eternal Melody

SUMIRE

Sumire sighed deeply. Another dream of that man again. 'Sora, definitely isn't Lucifer.' She was in another relationship, which shouldn't be unusual. She is sure in their past lives they must have had other lovers before finding each other.

But, 'I haven't seen any trace of Lucifer in my life as Neira or Nanaka.' It makes her uneasy. There is no doubt they were a couple in their other lifetimes. No doubt, that he is very familiar with her. However if she was with someone else in one lifetime. Does that mean she was with another person in this life too?

'I did date Toh, but he is definitely not Sora/Yi Did Sora not reincarnate in this life? No, he did. The music player Renna gave me, that song and that voice is definitely Sora's.'

Hearing sniggers, Sumire flinched. She knew even without peeking behind the bookshelf who was there. The same group of females who have been bothering her from her first day here.

Perhaps it's because Lucifer isn't around. But, they are bluntly showing their dislike for her now. She sighs quietly. It doesn't help how they keep vividly describing their 'time' with her husband.

The other day, one even sent images to her of entangled limbs, red silken bed sheets. Lucifer moaning their names as he came inside them. She almost broke the limbs of the person who sent that one.

Lucifer has never taken her as he does those other women. Others have said it's because he treasures her. But, a part of her has her doubts. Perhaps, he isn't attracted to her. It's not like she is a beauty, at best she has average looks. Her chest isn't a bad size, it's larger than average. But, she isn't a busted beauty like the other women in the manor.

However, if he truly wasn't attracted to her. He wouldn't look at her with those eyes. He wouldn't touch her more than once. Perhaps she is overthinking it. She thought she understood whatever bond they have with each other, but she has underestimated it. She misses him like crazy. 

Lucifer?

Yes, my heart?

Mmm. I just wanted to hear your voice.

What a coincidence so do I.

Really?

Touch yourself my heart. I need to hear your lovely moans.

At his request, her cheeks coloured. "I can't, I'm--in the library."

Yes, I do remember our session there. It evokes so many powerful memories. Do as I say Queen.

Sumire looked around nervously.

I can't. There are people around.

More importantly she has never done that before without his guidance and while she is curious. There is a time and place for everything.

Then, perhaps you should return to our bed?

I am researching.

Bed techniques? Those books won't teach you anything valuable.

Oh this man, what on earth is he thinking?

I thought you were busy working!

I am taking a break.

A break, it's rare that he is taking one. A sudden thought came to mind.

Is it so your men can feed?

She recalls what she heard a few days after his departure. The remaining women from the manor who escaped her rampage on in the manor went to the border with Lucifer and his men. It doesn't take a genius to figure out the reason why.

Yes, but because of you. I do not need to feed for awhile. Your blood will sustain me for a good few days.

Sumire stopped herself from asking what would happen if he didn't feed. Lucifer told her about his monster side, he told her how he struggles to keep him in control. 

But listening to all this moaning around me has me envious. I expect to hear those sounds when I'm buried inside you soon enough.

You'll return soon?

Yes.

She hears him chuckling.

You seem delighted.

I am. I've missed you.

I'm sure our bed has been cold. Do not worry, remember what I promised you before I left?

Y--you...really need to stop harassing me.

I'll be home soon, wife.

Sumire hears him grunting and pauses. She felt her heartbeat speed up, because that sound. She recognized that sound. It was the sound he makes when she is pleasuring him. 

Is something wrong my heart?

T-that sound. The sound your making, usually when we make love-

Is it okay for her to say this? Surely he wouldn't be using that nickname if he is truly with another woman?

I see, your trust in me is wavering. I'll show you.

Sumire frantically shakes her head

No no no need.

Wife, I insist.

Images of a very naked Lucifer inside a large tent, alone flashed through her head. What stood out to her, was that he was entirely naked and his hands were stroking his hard length, sweat covered his naked torso. If her cheeks weren't red before they were now. 

Goodness, is--is he really doing that in a tent in the middle of nowhere? Wh-what if others hear him? Does that not bother him?

Lucifer, are you thinking of me?

She hears grunts.

Of course wife. Only you can make me do this.

'That's a lie.' Sumire stopped herself from saying those words. She needs to stop getting like this. Lucifer has been nothing but loyal since she woke up in this place. Sure there was that time she caught him in the harem. But, ever since then he hasn't gone there once.

When Lucifer cries her name, Sumire felt her heart beat increase. If she wasn't embarrassed before, she was now. Hearing, seeing him being aroused for her was already making her body burn. But, it felt like she could scent his desire for her.

I-I get it, enough.

Lucifer chuckled and she sighs in relief when he moves his hand away. But that relief is short lived, because in the next second. It felt like he was touching her. Amid this she sees trails of shadows on her forearm and her legs. 

Is-is this you?

Yes, I was unsure if it would work since I am so far away. Can you feel me, wife?

Sumire slowly nodded.

L-Lucifer, you don't have to do this. I'm sorry for suspecting you even for a moment.

No, you were correct. I apologize for neglecting to inform you. You can relax my heart. The other women have been divided amongst my men.
