Chapter 1082 Tokyo Illusion Part 20

YUHI

That\'s why he understands when he watches Sumire looking at Mashima, she wants him. It hurts but at the very least she isn\'t hiding it. It\'s a wonder why Mashima hasn\'t picked up on it.

She ran her fingers through his hair. "Are you upset? About San."

Yuhi grunted. "You know, I\'d rather dodge this topic. But, I don\'t like hiding my emotions from you."

He doesn\'t want to hide anything from her. Sumire has had far too many bad experiences regarding people keeping things from. When he entered this relationship with her, he promised her that he would be different.

"It upsets me that he got to touch you and no doubt now that he has had you, he will do so again." Yuhi shook his head. "I\'m half tempted to beat him up again, but I\'m sure Lucifer will do that if he harms you again."

"Lex methods are too extreme. We shouldn\'t wish that punishment on anyone." Sumire trailed off. "I know how you feel my dear, but you\'re not the villain type, so you shouldn\'t encourage such behaviour."

Yuhi chuckled. "Are you sure about that? I can act like a villain if you want me too."

"Definitely no, you\'re too kind my dear."

Only this girl would call him kind. Yuhi sits up and prompts Sumire to do the same, he pulls the girl onto his lap.

"You know you\'re not the only one with the scary reputation in the underworld."

Sumire tilted her head. "Half your rumors talk about how handsome you are."

"I\'m quite sure that you\'re the one who spread those rumors love."

Sumire giggled. "You found out."

Yuhi shakes his head. "You used to do things like that so I knew you had a crush on me."

"But you never made a move." Sumire complained.

"Hey, I made plenty of moves. It\'s not my fault you were being so oblivious."

"What kinds of moves did you make? Tell me, and I will tell you if I realized or not."

Several things flashed through his mind and he shook his head. There is no way he can tell her any of that. Before Yuhi could say another word there was a knock on the door.

"It\'s Hino. Lucifer wants a word with you two."

Lucifer was waiting for them in one of the private lounges on the ship. Yuhi stared at the man sipping his drink as Mashima spoke to him. Nagawa was also there, upon seeing Sumire, Yuhi noticed how Nagawa\'s eyes lit up.

Sumire rushed over and snatched the cup from Lucifer as she inspected it.

Lucifer chuckled. "It\'s not poison my heart."

"Whose blood is this?" Sumire demanded.

"I\'ll have you know it\'s yours, I got it from your doctor."

Sumire handed the cup back. "Then okay."

\'Shouldn\'t she be more upset that they took her blood to be used like that? Then again, Sumire has never been normal. His wife to be is very strange.\' Still, her oddness contributes to her being cute and adorable.

Since they came here in a rush however, they didn\'t get much of a chance to fix their appearance. It was only when he noticed Nagawa\'s hardening gaze. Sumire\'s clothes were rumpled and her hair was a mess

Toh simply sighed and draped his cloak around her shoulders. "It\'ll mask the scent."

It takes Sumrie a moment to understand and blushed. Seeing how easily her cheeks colour because of him, Yuhi had to stop himself grinning like a fool.

They take their seats. Yuhi noticed how Sumire was eyeing the seat beside Lucifer but still remained next to him.

Yuhi didn\'t know what he was expecting from this little meeting. This is the first time Lucifer has summoned them this way. Even if Lucifer and Sumire are on better terms now. In the eyes of the general society and the underworld they are enemies. So, for him to pull a move like this? It\'s very risky.

The others in the black alice organisation can accuse him for conspiring with the enemy. On their side there should be no problems since Sumire did a good job clearing up the corruption in the Holy Knight main branch. Even then there was a way to save their reputation. It\'s different for Lucifer, this is a huge risk.

"Boss-" Sano started.

"Do not interrupt me."

Toh rolled his eyes and spoke up. "So, just to clarify. You want Sumire to go into the mountains, with no way of knowing whether she will be able to return?"

Lucifer chuckled. "Indeed."

"-and why would she agree to that?"

"Because her brother Rayne has been found."

At those words Sumire froze.

"Or I should accurately say, her half brother? Either way, he is a surviving relative no?"

Yuhi too was dumbfounded by Lucifer\'s words. Out of everything this man was going to say, that was the last thing he expected. Right now Lucifer is acting like a bad guy, by suggesting Sumire go to a dangerous place. But, it doesn\'t change the fact that he searched for Sumire\'s relative.

He could see the flicker in Sumire\'s eyes, before he could reach over for her hand to comfort her. Mashima beat him to it by placing one hand on her shoulder and the other one on her back.

"You cry a lot beautiful, it\'s not good for you."

"Mm, I know."

Toh turned to Lucifer. "I don\'t believe for one minute that you are doing this for her sake."

Lucifer chuckled. "That\'s offensive. I would never do anything to hurt her."

"That would be convincing if your eyes were a normal shade, and it would be convincing if you didn\'t drink the life out of one of your women before coming here."

At those words Yuhi watched Sumire flinch. "Oh."

Lucifer frowned but didn\'t say anything regarding the subject, instead he said something else.

"Toh, why don\'t you go with them?"

Toh sighed deeply. "I see what you\'re trying to do. Rather than me, why don\'t you send Mamoru?"

Lucifer shakes his head. "I think it\'s better if you go."

A complicated look flashed through Mashima\'s face and Yuhi noticed him briefly glancing over at him.

"I\'ll have an answer by tomorrow."
