Eternal Melody

Chapter 1115 Road To Legend Part 3

SUMIRE

Yuhi stops kissing her but continues biting her neck. "Are you tired? The concert was long wasn't it?"

Sumire blinked and then laughed. He really is a kind person, but it is still difficult for him to show that kindness in front of others.

"My voice feels a bit hoarse."

"I'll make you a honey drink later."

"Mm," She caresses his handsome face. "What about you my dearest?"

"Hah, even now it's still hard to get used to getting other jobs that aren't singing. I got plenty of them before but since returning from the US, I have been getting more modelling jobs."

Sumire blinked. "So, while I was exhausting myself singing my heart out for you, you've been surrounded by pretty models?"

Yuhi sighs. "Listen, I think we have talked about this already. But, other girls don't even enter my eyes anymore."

Sumire feigns a suspicious look for a few minutes and chuckles seeing his troubled face. He really is handsome, and he is all hers. She reaches over and caresses his cheek, one of her hands made it's way to his shirt which she unbuttoned slightly to reveal the many scars that marked him. Three from bullets, several from knives. There were some scars on his legs too, but despite all these injuries, Yuhi is still here.

Yuhi catches her looking at the scars and shakes his head. "They don't hurt, yours don't either do they?"

"I know, but these new ones bother me." She points to the knife marks near his heart. "I almost rushed to the US when I heard what happened to you."

She knew while Yuhi was in the US, he wouldn't just focus on his career but continue the attack on the Black alice organisation.

Yuhi chuckled. "It's fine, it's not like I was fighting alone. After Ran rescued Momoi, he ended up becoming a target too. Kou quote said it's not fair that we were having all the fun and joined in, and did you know Tetsuo could fight?"

Sumire blinked. "I actually didn't, but if he can keep up with you three he must be good."

"So, I wasn't alone. With Jun behind the scenes, hacking and mapping out our routes. It made the jobs easier and less dangerous."

She points to the wounds. "Less dangerous?"

"But, like I always say to you. No matter how strong I am, I am still a human. I can get hurt by a stun gun and be knocked out by a paralyzer, I'm not immune to weapons." He trails off and looks at her with a complicated expression. "I'm surprised you are, again I have to question what kind of training Aki made you do."

"Hmm, there were certainly a few life and death situations."

Yuhi frowned and she giggled as she spoke in his mind.

'I do love it when your violent.'

'I know very well what you love about me Sumire, but you can tell me again, it never gets boring.'

'Recently my dear, you've been very comfortable speaking like this.'

'Hmm, it was a fun little experiment when I was in the US. I know we could do it in the past, but we never tried in this life. Moreover since you can communicate with Lucifer. I was worried it wouldn't work for me.'

'I told you already, I can feel the soul bond. It's you Yuhi, not Lex.'

Sumire felt Yuhi caress her hair. Whenever they speak into each others minds like this, they can focus on casual touches physically.

'Have you seen him recently?'

At those words Sumire frowned. 'I haven't.'

Truthfully, she hasn't seen Lucifer since the first few months when she moved back to star town. Half a year or has it been more? Toh has been very busy, so hasn't seen him much either. With Lucifer's absence, Toh has had to take charge of everything.

When they returned to the table, Ran was cursing as he suddenly stood up.

"Shit." Ran stood up.

"Getting Futaba?" Sumire said knowingly.

"She left her umbrella. What is she doing when it has been raining a lot recently?"

"Why don't you ask her out already?" Sumire said as she stirred the contents of her drink.

"Sumire! You're supposed to keep that a secret." Ran exclaimed.

"Everyone knows you like her." Sumire shrugged.

Ran's feelings aren't exactly a secret, even Atushi realized it. 'Even before me and Futaba-san started dating, I knew Ran-san liked her.' Atushi noticed it before the man himself did. But, it's not just Atushi, she realized it too. The main reason why she rejected Ran, and never truly gave him a chance was because she knew he liked Futaba. No, because she realized Futaba liked him too.

Yuhi raised his eyebrow. "You still haven't asked her out? You saved her life, that would have been a really good opportunity for you."

Ran's face colour turned pale as he realized.

"You missed a great chance. I don't think you will get another one."

Sumire sweat fell. Yuhi-san can be really brutal when he wants to be. She scrolled through her phone and checked the Holy knights group chat. It seems like everything is okay, there doesn't seem to be any urgent jobs that need completing. That means after this she can head home with Yuhi-san and they can spend some time with the kids.

'I should order some cake and other pastries for the kids to enjoy.' Huan has a sweet tooth like herself.

____________________

The house she and Yuhi-san bought in star town, is from one of the new neighbourhoods. Because this place is still new, there are seldom any people living here. At first she thought it was too much, living in an actual mansion. However, considering hers and Yuhi-san's plans of having many children. A large place like this works. Moreover, the garden here is so large. She has enjoyed planting various flowers.

"Huan?" Sumire called out.

No reply.

"Kyo-chan? Satomi? Mama and Papa are home."

There was no response, no rushing little footsteps. Sumire tilted her head confused and headed to the living room. Normally Atushi drops them off when he knows they are coming. Perhaps they are too early?

Sumire peeked inside the living room, but she couldn't see any trace of them. How unusual. Sumire was about to take her phone out to call Atushi when Yuhi snatches her phone from her hands,

He tosses it aside, and pins her to the wall with a lustful expression in his eyes.

"Uhhh..my dear? The kids--" Sumire started.

"-are staying with Atushi. I kicked them out for tonight."

"Um why?" Sumire wondered.

If he was going to kick them out, she shouldn't have bothered buying those pastries. Yuhi-san doesn't have much of a sweet tooth after all.

"I haven't had you for awhile.

It takes her a moment to process those words and when she did, her entire face reddened.

'I did think he was touching me too much in the cafe, but this is hard to believe. How could he send the kids away just so they could-'

"So for the next few days, your mine." Yuhi declared and he is all over her.
