Chapter 664 Why?

Sensing him lean closer, Sumire proceeded to step on his foot but before she could do so, somebody harshly yanked her away from Kei. Her eyes widened when she saw who it was.

"San!"

Sano looked at her furiously. "Who is this?"

"Um, Yuhi's friend."

"You weren't picking up your phone." Sano looked her up and down. "Did he touch you?"

"No."

Sano still looked upset and nodded. "I came here to do your check up. Terashima told me to come." He trailed off. "Can we go somewhere quiet?"

Sumire nodded and led Sano to the room next door. She didn't miss Kei's smirk on the way out. The moment she entered the other room however Sano has her pinned against the wall. His lips is on hers before she could even think.

Her eyes widened when she realized how strong his grip on her wrist was. What is this? She only noticed it briefly last time they met but this is different. How did he get this strong? He wasn't like this before.

She raised her hand and slapped him.

"I told you, no." Sumire said angrily.

"You almost kissed that other guy."

"Are you stupid? I was messing with him. I would have stepped on his foot."

"..."

Sumire sighed seeing his expression.

"We haven't met in awhile. Don't be unreasonable alright?"

"You're the one who hasn't contacted me."

'Because while Sano is still useful. With her current plans, there is no need for him.'

"I'm sorry, I have been busy. Thank you for coming. I haven't been feeling well recently." Sumire sat down on the sofa.

"Terashinma told me. Can you describe your symptoms?

"Recently my body feels warmer. Even when I don't have a fever, it's like this. Also, I experience pain in my joints and my heart aches. It's becoming harder to breathe." Sumire watched Sano's expression slowly harden. "I am aware you may not have an immediate solution. But, is there any way to decrease the attacks?"

'I don't want an attack to happen in front of Yuhi. I always want to look best in front of the man I love.'

"Recently, the lord is the same. Sumire, you have to consume the lord's blood."

Sumire blinked when she heard those words.

"I don't know much about it. But recently he disclosed some details with me. He said you two met when you were escaping from the burning Ibuki manor."

She met Lucifer that day? Sumire felt a throbbing sensation appear in her heart. Not only did she meet him, but she spoke slowly and asked.

"Did I drink his blood?"

"Yes."

She felt her face colour turn pale at those words. Didn't Yuhi-san tell her before that drinking another person's blood is a form of intimacy? How could she do something like that with that man of all people? Moreover when she was young?

Sumire tried to recall it, but only fuzzy looking images of her running in the forest appeared in her mind. This is frustrating, why can't she remember.

"I will get a sample of the Lord's blood for you."

"Eh?"

"I know you do not want to meet him."

It's true that she doesn't, but won't he get in trouble? No, Lucifer must find Sano valuable. Despite the beating Sano experienced during winter break, it seems like he has returned to being in Lucifer's good books.

He looks a lot healthier and he no longer has bruises on his face.

In the past he wouldn't have voluntarily approached Lucifer. No, they didn't even meet before. Strange, there is definitely something strange about him. Sumire extended her hand out to caress his cheek and the moment she did, he grabbed hold of her wrist.

It was just a brief moment but Sumire immediately noticed it. She quickly rolled his sleeves up and her eyes widened seeing red coloured vein lines. This?

"It's nothing." Sano snapped.

Did- Did Sano willingly participate in the experiment to become an evolved human? That is the only reason why Lucifer who was previously angry with him would forgive him.

But why would he do something like that? Her thoughts broke off when he suddenly hugged her. She tried to break free but it was like what she thought, his strength has increased.

"San, why?" Sumire mumbled puzzled.

Why would he get involved? That time he followed her into that dangerous place, he was clearly frightened. He doesn't like hearing any talk about her being an evolved being, because he doesn't want to accept that she is different than him.

"Even if it is for something small, I want to be able to help you with my own strength."

Ah, she made a mistake. Sano was never afraid of evolved humans. What he feared was being powerless, and being unable to do anything again.

Just like when he had no choice but to let her go, because those people pressured him.

So, this time will be different?

Unfortunately she is no saint, she can't accept that he has changed completely. Perhaps he is still her most useful card.

'How far is he willing to go for me?'

Sano has already done a lot. Participating in the evolved human experiment, wasn't an easy decision. It would mean ceasing to be a normal human.

This person who valued his humanity and pride more than anybody else, sacrificed it for the sake of his old girl who he threw away.

"Was it painful?"

"Yeah. I had to endure several hours being locked away in an ice pod. However, by the end of those long hours, I felt stronger than before."

'Does Sano not realize how the actual procedure works?'

It's hard to understand if he does or not. Right now he is spouting sweet sounding lines but, a familiar voice interrupted her thoughts.

"Sumire? Is Nagawa here?"

Ah, her dearest!

"That's cold Yuhi, I'm here too."

Sumire quickly left Sano's embrace and rushed over to greet her dear. The moment she saw Yuhi in his formal suit standing at the door way, she is left feeling breathless.

"You're here again? Stop bothering Sumire."

"But she let me inside."

This man! Is he trying to get her in trouble with her dearest? Her thoughts break off when Yuhi picked her up. Ah!

"No matter how delusional you are, please control it." Yuhi looked towards her with a gentle gaze. "Hey, I haven't seen you in a few hours but it seems like you have gotten prettier."

Sumire felt her heart beat speed up at his words. Ah, her dear! This smile of his is so bad for her heart.

But he is so handsome in that suit. 'I must have some type of suit fetish. He looks so good, I want to eat him.' Sumire wrapped her arms around his neck and bent down to plant her lips on his.

Whenever they kiss it feels like the world around them has stopped.

Sensing a dangerous aura, Sumire drew back seeing Sano standing behind them.

Oops, she almost forgot about him. However, she felt lightning bolts form between the three of them. What is this situation?
