BXBX NOVEL Chapter 256: Take responsibility [1/2]
I lifted Bella's face and stared into her eyes.
"Bella. I would kill an entire continent if it meant that you would stay with me. I am done following the rules of others. I live this life for myself. I love you, so I will always be by your side. If I killed a million people, would you stop loving me?"
"ABSOLUTELY NOT!"
The intensity of my honey's voice almost made me deaf. But her reactions were also beyond endearing.
"Then I see no problem, right? I am a demon, and the Sirens are all villainesses. I think we make a great match," I said with a smile.
I placed my hand on Bella's inner thigh before giving her a quick kiss on the neck.
"Besides, you all made the mistake of letting me have a taste. After I win my war, we will go on a honeymoon. You've already lost your shot at ditching me."
Bella shivered at my caress, her breathing quickening as she clung to my arms.
"Bastard. Now I am hot and horny! What if I can't wait until Sunday?"
"Then that is your punishment. Spend your last days of freedom. Once you are mine, even death will not separate you from me."
"Tsk. Dramatic much? Get moving. The night begins in two hours."
Despite her words, Bella made no move to get off my lap. As I moved her to the couch, she pulled me in and gave me a French kiss.
"Thank you honey. I love you very much."
"I know. Make sure you apologize to the others when they get back."
With that, I headed for the door, and as I walked out into the hallway, I saw my ninja waiting by the door.
"Master, Lilly-sama is waiting for you at the elevators. Denel-san and Benelli-san went to the roof. Liv is at the buffet hall. Robyn is walking aimlessly down the hall..."
I walked up to her and grabbed her waist and tasted her lips.
"Mhm... Master, I apologize for making a scene. I understood what Bella-san wanted to do, so I helped her with her act. Well, I was the one who instigated it in the first place. I hope you are pleased."
I turned Aki around and hugged her from behind.
"I understand why you did it, Aki. But I do not like the way it was done. I love you, so I will not make a fuss. But your punishment will be on Sunday."
"Sunday? You mean after the Seeker War?"
"Yes. We will go on a honeymoon and I will ravage you until you can no longer stand."
"..."
Aki looked away with flushed cheeks at my lewd declarations. Then I nibbled at her ear, whispering between bites.
"Do you have anything else to confess? Slaves who ignore the will of their masters should be punished."
"Ah! Wait! Anata! I! Wait! Please not there!"
Despite her words, Aki hardly tried to free herself from my arms. She silently accepted my actions, trembling with every touch.
"I've already forgiven you for trying to kill me. Whatever you did before, it is now our fault and not just yours. From now until the day you die. Do you understand?"
"Yes, Anata. I will obey your words."
Then I felt Aki's huge breasts while I kissed her collarbone. Her sweet moans set my imagination ablaze. How could she be so seductive? I forced myself to stop after a few moments and sucked on Aki's tongue again.
"Good, find Robyn and tell me with {Connect}. I will meet with Lilly next."
"Huff... huff... yes."
I left Aki breathing excitedly. A random hotel guest saw our depravity and stared at me speechlessly. I invoked death resonance as I walked past him.
"You saw a loving wife kissing her husband goodbye, nothing more. And change your fucking shirt. It's lame as shit."
I finally reached the elevator and saw Lilly staring at the windows, admiring the moon. Her beauty put me in a trance, and I hugged her from behind like I was under a spell. I buried my face in her swan-like neck and savored it.
"Mhm...dear, we are in public."
"Should I kill everyone here?"
"Don't even joke about that. So? What do you have to say to me, dear?"
"About what?"
"That I am part of an execution squad, taking the {Fates} of dead reapers to make soulgear."
"It's very efficient."
"JOHN! I am serious!"
"So am I. What do you want me to say? That you are a monster? That I hate you? None of those things are true. I am more of a monster than you will ever be.
And I adore you. What else can I say?"
"..."
"You have all heard my words. Whatever you did before, I accept them, they are what made you. If I deny any of your past actions, that means I reject you. Nothing could be further from the truth."
"Why do you trust me so much? Aren't you afraid of me?"
"Of what? That you are a pervert? I'm used to it though?"
Lilly pinched my hand with her fingers.
"I'm not a pervert, you uncouth brute! I meant that I am a heartless soldier."
Then I moved my hand and slid it under Lilly's blouse. Not stopping there, I lifted her bra from underneath and fondled her breast, my index finger finding her nipple, which I attacked mercilessly.
"Ah! Dear! Stop that!"
"You are nothing but a pervert. My pervert. Nothing else matters to me."
It was adorable how Lilly began to bite her finger in excitement. As I caressed her breast and it's small protrusion, I whispered in her ear, making sure she felt my every breath.
"I love you, Lilly Browning. As long as you never let go of us, I never will. Return to my room, Bella should apologize to you. No more secrets from now on, okay?"
Lilly nodded wordlessly and had a look of loneliness on her face as my hand left her undergarments. I straightened her blouse before giving her a parting kiss.
After she left, I went up the fire escape to the roof. In less than ten seconds I saw the sisters sitting on the floor looking up at the endless sky. Josephine immediately moved to make room for me between them.
