Chapter 945 My Beautiful Monster Part 46

LUCIFER

Even after the end of the star shower, Sumire insisted they return to the town and join the festivals there. It was after he watched her drink her tenth cup of wine, where he decided that she had enough and brought her back. If she hadn't been so drunk, he would have made do on that promise to finish what they had started earlier. Sadly, he knew she was in no condition to get intimate with him.

It didn't bother him as much as it should have. Sumire has given him enough tonight.

After making sure she was fast asleep. Lucifer tracked down the women who Sumire overheard gossiping about their marriage being fake. Although he heard this news from her a while ago, he has unfortunately been far too busy. However, Sumire's words about feeling safe being with him remained firm in his mind. It's not enough for her to just feel safe when he is around. He wants her to feel safe all the time.

He was currently sitting on his throne in the throne room.

Lucifer stared at the five women hunched on the ground.

"I heard something amusing. It seems the five of you were running your mouths about my marriage."

He watched the five women glance back at each other dumbfounded.

"M-My Lord, with all due respect-"

Lucifer frowned. "Speak clearly. I cannot hear anything if you ramble." He trailed off and he extended his hand out causing black shadows to wrap around the woman's throat. "Make no mistake. I don't need for you to speak to know what happened."

He can simply enter their minds and tear them to shreds. He does have Toh's power. Or he can butcher and make an example of one of them. Either way he will find out what happened.

"W-with all due respect my Lord, it's not just us who doubts the woman's identity."

"Did I ask that?"

"W-we were simply discussing how much you liked her. But, nobody knows when you actually got married and how strange it is that there has been no ceremony."

Lucifer's gaze dimmed. "Why does that matter?"

"P-people are saying, b-because you haven't had a ceremony. Miss Sumire isn't anybody special, and you will toss her away sooner or later."

Despite the vague words of the old woman, Lucifer immediately understood. He scanned the other women and found a much younger woman with ginger hair there. A woman he recognized.

"You, speak. You're friends with Elisa aren't you?"

That way of wording things is far too familiar.

The ginger hair woman, Lacy, he believes is her name looks up with a determined gaze. Even though she was trembling, she spoke clearer than the older woman. "Elisa means well my Lord."

"She means well? Even though she is insulting my wife?" Lucifer scoffed.

"She means well." Lacy repeated. "Elisa has only ever worked hard for the organisation."

Indeed, the woman was not only an excellent bed companion, her blood has kept many of his men on the verge of insanity sane. However, it's easy to forget and dismiss those things with her current attitude. He figured there was one person in particular sowing discord amongst his people. But to think it would be Elisa.

All the other women in the harem have always known their place. He has made it clear that he will never choose a wife from them, and how any relationships he forms with them will be physical. He thought Elisa was one of the ones who understood that. After all she was the one who took care of all the women who acted up in the past.

"That woman- Miss Sumire, isn't she the Ibuki Sumire who is supposedly on vacation with her manager? The one who was stabbed by a fan not too long ago?"

Lucifer's gaze dimmed as his shadows moved away from the elder woman and surrounded Lacy.

"It seems, someone has been doing their research."

"I-If it's really her my Lord, then how can she be your wife? Doesn't she belong to Terashima Yuhi-"

Lucifer didn't give her a chance to finish those words, he used his shadows to stab the girl's leg causing her to fall onto the ground wincing in pain. He continued to use his shadows as spikes and stabbed her repeatedly.

"Who, did you say she belonged to?"

"T-teras-"

Lucifer gave a low dark chuckle. "It seems you are very aware of the facts. If that's the case, yes I did take her from Terashima. Yes, she doesn't remember anything."

He hears gasps from the other women but he remains focused on Lacy. "I doubt you came to that conclusion on your own. Elisa is truly a smart and cunning woman."

"She will keep the organisation safe from filthy people like Ibuki. My Lord, why did you take her?"

'I must admit, I am impressed. She is clearly in a lot of pain, how is she able to speak?'

She must have seen her fair share of torture under Elisa's rule. Lucifer stands up and walks over until he is standing directly in front of her. He crouches down and cupped the girl's face. The only reason he recognizes her is because she is one of Elisa's ladies in waiting. But she is also one of the few women in the manor he has never fed from.

If Elisa wants to continue acting up, then he can play this game.

"M-My Lord?" Lacy said, trembling. He caresses her arm with his darkness and she shudders. "I-I-what do you need from me?"

Lucifer chuckled. "If you wish to redeem yourself. You are to spy on Elisa for me, and if she ever takes it too far. End her with your own hands, and when she is gone. You can replace her."

Lacy continued to tremble under his shadow's touch. Her face turned redder by the minute. Her breathing became unsteady. He may not have fed her before. But, he can sense a person's desire. He has seen how this girl has stolen looks at him before.

"Y-yes my Lord, Lucifer-sama."

Lucifer chuckled and then turned to the four women still on the ground. He has no need for them, he only needs one person to spy on Elisa. Since they have learned of Sumire's identity, there is no need to let them live.
