Eternal Melody Chapter 826 Their Axiom Of Choice Part 5

Chapter 826 Their Axiom Of Choice Part 5

Lucifer felt the pounding sensation in his heart and frowned. It has been beating unusually like this since a few hours ago, and he knew what the reason was.
Somebody had been drinking her blood carelessly, and that somebody just happened to be one of his subjects Nagawa Sano.
The minute that man stops having a purpose. Lucifer already had different plans on how to make his meagre existence miserable.
"My lord." A voice from the shadows said.
A woman with pink hair, with black and blue streaks stepped out.
"Do you have a report?"
Koharu nodded. "Nagawa was seen meeting with Ibuki in a hotel not too far from here. A reporter caught them going to the rooms together, so I made sure to take care of him."
Lucifer sighed. "That man is too careless. We cannot overdo our plans to destroy her reputation. In the end, we are not trying to drive her away from the entertainment industry. We are simply trying to break her."
"Should I pass those words along to Nagawa too?"
His lips curve to a smile. "Last time you passed on words to him, you broke a few bones."
"That was simply because he did not obey your last command. He has been obedient recently, there is no need for me to go that far."
He chuckled. "Indeed. But him laying his hands on my woman," His gaze dimmed at that.
At those words Koharu sighed. "But my Lord, you let Mashima touch Ibuki too."
"He is fine."
Koharu shakes her head. "I will never understand why you treat him the way you do. You must realize that he will betray you the minute Ibuki asks him."
"I am aware."
"Then-"
Lucifer chuckled. "Whether it's Toh or Nagawa, nobody will defy me when it comes to a confrontation with Sumire."
Those fools simply do not know that yet.

Sano
The day after he woke up from feeling such despair and grief. Sumire was in his arms, despite waking up before him she hadn'tt moved. She was simply playing with his hair and she was even singing for him. For the next few days, Sumire stayed with him and he couldn't be happier.
"San."
"Hmm?"
"Do you remember when we went on that island together?" Sumire suddenly asked.
"You want to go back?" Sano said knowingly.
"Mm there's something I'd like to check out."
Sano frowned knowing she was talking about. "No work talk, just relax "
"I need to check on the kids--"
"Sumire-" Sano said sharply.
"But I-" Sumire protested.
He shakes his head. "Just relax." Sano said in a calm and yet reassuring voice.
"You've been so kind to me lately, its weird."
"Your behaviour is strange too." Sano pointed out.
She didn't have to stay with him, and yet she did. She could have left the moment he returned to normal. But she didn't.
"I just want to make sure your okay."
"Yeah."
"Does it hurt if I do this?" Sumire pressed her fingers on the scar on his chest.
Sano flinched. "You can't see the scar but its there."
"I guess this means you'll abstain from sex for awhile."
Sano chuckles. "There are other ways, want to find out?"
"No." Sumire instantly refused. "I'm tired. You--drank too much."ReadNovelFull.com
"I'm sorry, I don't know how to control it."
"Just don't suck me dry. Drink enough so your feeling "okay" enough to quench any rage due to the blood lust."
"So, I don't drink till I'm satisfied?"
He still doesn't understand how all of this works. He doesn't understand anything other than knowing that he could be close to her this way.
"From what I hear, being satisfied means sucking someone dry."
"I see, I shall keep that in mind."
"Also I called Hino."
"You told him?"
"He said he took care of it but next time, we should go somewhere more private. The place I live in now with Toh has good security."
Sano frowned. He knew she was living together with Mashima now. But, he didn't like it.
"Do you have your own room?"Sano asked.
"Oh...uh.." Sumire said nervously.
His eyes twitched annoyed. Hino always talks about him taking advantage of the situation. But, look what Mashima Toh is doing.
"Then it'll be difficult, unless you want an audience." Sano said drily.
"I'll ask about the leak in the guest room."
"Leak?" Sano repeated.
"Yes, Toh said I couldn't stay there."
'That's definitely a lie.' He wonders how many lies Mashima Toh has said to Sumire. How many lies has she believed?
"Did you bring any spare clothes?"
"Uh."
"I'll send for some."
Sumire nodded. "Thank you San."
She looked around. "It's a bit too late to ask. But, are we sharing the bed?"
"Unless you have a problem with that."
"I'll sleep on the couch. It looks long enough."
'Back to being stubborn huh?'
Sano sighed deeply. "Forget it, I'll sleep on the couch. You sleep here."
He reluctantly makes his way over to the couch area.
"San?" Sumire called out.
"Hm?"
"I wanted to ask you something."
"What is it?"
The girl paused before saying. "Will you be staying here for awhile?"
He watched Sumire's gaze fall on the clothing in his room.
"Yeah my apartment is being occupied."
"Hmm." Sumire trailed off. "You know this place is close to the uni and Toh's apartment."
At those words he flinched and she laughed. "Your too worried."
"Lucifer being serious is nothing to worry about."
Sano stressed that point. He acknowledges that Sumire is strong. But, Lucifer is too dangerous.
"I understand."
Does she really? Does she truly know what will happen if that man gets his hands on her?
They continue chatting until she falls asleep. Once or twice during the night, he had to get up and check on her because the girl was obviously getting nightmares. Sano held her tighter and kissed her forehead gently.
'You don't have to be afraid, I am here.'
.....
It's no surprise that Sumire has a fever the next day. Thankfully he prepared for this situation, and had medication in the cabinets.
"Sumire. Are you okay?"
"Just a bit of pain."
Sano lazily drew circles around her stomach.
"San."
"Hm? "
"Don't you have work to do?" Sumire wondered.
"I called in sick."
Not a lie, but not quite the truth either. He simply said the other day that he may not come in, since he is occupied with a guest.
'I hate having to sneak around. But, I can't openly declare I am seeing Sumire.'
The reporters are already conjuring up crazy rumors about them. Thankfully, Hino is around. Otherwise they would have surely taken those rumors too far. Due to Hino's warning and the restraining order. The media's actions have now been restricted.
