Chapter 1019 My Beautiful Monster Part 120
SUMIRE/NORAH
"Norah-" Lucifer's tone was filled with need and desire and she licked her lips, as she leaned forward brushing her lips against his neck. "You-"
"Indeed, I have missed you."
"Woman, you're playing with fire"
"Mmmm, I am?" She said coyly.
"I forgot how you were always the first one to make the move
"Men, always so slow."
Lucifer kissed her, and nibbled on her lips. "Behave Norah. We can play all we want at night, on our bed."
"I'd like a different atmosphere. Oh, maybe we can go out in the garden?
"As you wish." Lucifer trailed off. "Let's continue the conversation."
Sumire nodded and quickly scrambled off him. She thought that things were better between them. Just now didn't she show how much she desired him? But, it didn't take long before Lucifer became agitated again, especially when she mentioned speaking to Lennon.
"I am sure he will listen to me. He's never harmed me after the first life. He has always been on my side."
Lucifer shakes his head. "You know what he did to me. He will hurt you Norah, and the way he revealed you two sleeping together." A disgusted look flashed through Lucifer's face. "He made you out to be some common whore."
Sumire cringed, Lennon wouldn't do that to her. At least not the Lennon she got to know in the third, fourth, and fifth life. In the sixth, she did see a glimpse of darkness in his eyes. But, she brushed it off, since she focused more on his sadness. Lennon didn't want to let her go. If possible, he would have wanted to stay with her.
'I have caused enough problems for you and brother. I will leave you two in peace now, so you can finally live your lives happily.?I wonder though, had I approached you. Had I had the courage to speak with you, would you have fallen in love with me instead? This is goodbye Norah.'
He looked so sad. She doesn't believe that he would suddenly revert back to his old self. Because even after Lex killed him three times, Lennon never held a grudge.
Lucifer's gaze dimmed. "Is he really that important to you? Why can't you believe what I am saying right away?"
"It's not that, it's just- you said it yourself that he changed."
"Yes, on the surface. But, a person's core nature never changes and it's Lennon. He probably put on an act to get you to trust him."
"That's not true!" Sumire yelled back. "He would never hurt me, he's always protected me."
Lucifer must have been holding back his anger before, since genuine fury flashed through his eyes as he snarled.
"If you like him that much, you should just go to him. He's been lurking around, hoping I'd drop my guard and let you go."
"Lex-"
"Enough Norah, haven't you made it clear? Whether it's Lennon, or your precious Sora. You'd rather be with them instead of me."
That's not it, she needs to explain it to him. She has to- Seeing him turn his back on her hurt. But what hurt more was when he took out his phone and dialled a number. She immediately hears a female voice giggling.
"Where are you?"
"The usual place. I knew you wouldn't resist for long."
He is only doing this to spite her and make her angry. It's fake, it's fake. But, even though she understood that he is only doing this because he is hurt. She felt tears fall from her eyes. It's not real but hearing the way Makino speaks to her husband. She can envision how many times Lucifer must have had her body.
It's not hard for Lex to do this. After all, her husband is excellent at selling it. When he cheated on her with Miss Bennet, he truly persuaded her that he wanted another woman. It's the same this time too, the way lex responded to her with flirtatious words and promises made her sick.
Sumire felt her vision grow blurry and as she struggled to maintain her balance, she felt a strong kick in her stomach causing her to topple over. The entire time Lucifer flirted with another woman he was making eye contact with her. His eyes widened alarmed and he immediately dropped the phone and caught her right before she fell.
"Norah? Norah love?"
"T-the-baby, I think it's-" Her words were lost into the void as her consciousness faded.

LUCIFER
Lucifer was pacing back and forth in front of the door. He was restless, and he felt sick. How could the child be coming right in the middle of their argument? He recalled the time limit Norah mentioned. The child is coming, it should have made him happy. He has wanted another child with her for so long. However when he saw her condition, any joy he would have felt vanished.?Her face drained of all blood, skin as white as a ghost and her heavy breathing.
Moreover the child coming was a stark reminder that in a few days she would have to leave his side.
That dammed Guardian, Norah made the woman sound like a saint and he is thankful to be given this chance. But, only a few days with the child she has been wanting for six life times?
Hearing her pained cries from outside the room. Lucifer was half tempted to break the door down. But, the moment he creaked the door open to take a peek, Lyra ushered him out of the room with a glare. Lyra is one of their mutual friends from their first lives. Coincidentally the girl arrived this morning. It's a good thing too, he doesn't trust anyone to help Norah deliver the child safely.
Jacks was laughing at his situation and Lucifer glared. "Do you think this is funny?"
"Actually I do, it's not the first time she has given birth you know?"
"I think you're conveniently forgetting, that I wasn't there for her first delivery because I was sent on a stupid job by the council."
Jacks shrugged. "But you still made it towards the end. She will be fine Alex, she has done this before."
"What if she dies?" Lucifer mumbled. He has heard plenty of stories of women dying while giving birth.
