Eternal Melody

Chapter 1025 This is me Part 1

SUMIRE

When she first agreed to Norah taking over her body until she gave birth. She felt pity towards the original her. Being torn away from their loved one for two centuries, must have been difficult. Not to mention not being able to give birth. While Norah was in her body, she was tucked away in her subconscious. But, she could still see what was happening. She saw how 'she' interacted with Lucifer, and felt the girl's powerful emotions like they were her own.

However, now she is starting to have regrets. She just gave birth not too long ago, and Eli. Oh, Eli- when she finally wakes up. She is going to let that jerk have it. Couldn't he have waited a few more days?

Sumire's gaze fell on Aoi who stepped out holding a small circle of light. "That's my soul?"

Aoi nodded. "The fact that she managed a physical form in this space last time was already a miracle."

Sumire bit her lip. "Can't you give her more time?"

Aoi shakes her head. "I know she still had an extra few days. But, what that person did was terrifying. He reached out and grabbed her soul directly to yank it out."

"Eli is-"

Aoi grabs hold of her hands. "I understand. It's hard for him, since he only sees the world in black and white."

Sumire blinked. "It almost sounds like you have personal experience with that."

Aoi laughed softly. "Maybe, anyhow. Stay still Sumire-chan, Norah's soul should be inside you."

Sumire looked at the glowing ball of light. "I don't want it to be like before. It's too painful for her soul to live separately inside me." She trailed off. "The other lifetimes, how was it done?"

"You wish to merge your memories?" Aoi asked.

Sumire nodded. "I think it will be for the best."

Aoi paused and then suddenly shifted into a serious tone. "It can be done, but I would wait until your body has recovered. You just gave birth and your friend reopened your old wounds."

Sumire looked at Aoi puzzled at her behaviour but slowly nodded.

"For now, I'll make sure Norah is sleeping so she doesn't suffer too much." Aoi carefully pushed Norah's soul back into her body.

Sumire didn't know what she was expecting, but she certainly didn't think it would be as simple as Aoi pushing the soul back in her body.

"Are you ready to return?" Aoi asked.

She slowly nodded.

"Good, don't come here for a while." Aoi sighs deeply. "It's not good for you to come into this space often, unless you're cutting a thread of fate."

Sumire rolled her eyes. "I have lost count how many times you have told me that the past few years."

"This time I am serious. Don't come here so often." Aoi bit her lip and leaned down and whispered something in her ear.

A knowing ah escaped her lips and she nodded. "Understood miss guardian. Unless I'm on the brink of death, I shouldn't be paying you a visit anytime soon."

Aoi laughed. "It'll get lonely. But alas such is fate." She extended her hand out and a bright light emerged that soon engulfed her entire body. "Be smart, stay safe."

.....

The moment she opened her eyes, she found herself searching for the child.

"Layla." Sumire mumbled and looked around. She recognized their surroundings. They were in the car parking lot of Nagawa general hospital. She screamed at the man who was hovering over her. "You didn't bring her?!!!"

"Apologies Queen. But if I bought an infant along, we would have gotten caught."

Sumire shakes her head. "I need to--I need to go back." She struggled to stand up. But, her entire body felt weak and her chest hurt so much.

Right, the wound- Eli- Her thoughts break off spotting two approaching figures. It was Hino and behind him was Sano.

"Sumire, what's wrong?"

"Daughter. My daughter." Sumire cried.

Hino blinked startled at her words. "Kyoko's with Mashima, you'll see her soon."

Sumire shakes her head. "Layla, bring me Layla." She was half hysterical at this point. The child, the child she only held in her arms for two hours. She wasn't even 'herself' at the time. She wants to see her.

Hino really didn't know what was going on and she felt bad for confusing him. Especially since she could see how weak he looked.

Sano quietly approached them from the back and suddenly pulled out a needle and shot it in her arm. "Sorry, go to sleep for a bit."

She wanted to protest, but it didn't take long before her surroundings turned black.

HINO

"Daughter." Hino repeated when Sumire passed out. "How--?"

"It's possible. He is a purebreed hanyou and so is she. A regular pregnancy can take up to six months, this happened in two. Think Hino-kun, why Lucifer wanted her so badly. If their women can breed and give birth this early. Its no wonder he wants her."

Hino paused. That explanation makes sense but these words are coming from Eli.

"I will look into this."

Eli chuckled. "Even now you still don't believe me."

"Of course not. Moreover, what were you thinking?" Hino pointed to the traces of blood on Sumire's clothes. "You did this to her didn't you?"

"She wasn't going to leave otherwise."

Hino shakes his head. When Eli showed up to the meeting place with Sumire covered in blood. He forcibly entered Eli's mind to see what happened. He has never used his powers like that before but seeing Sumire like that, he wanted to make sure Lucifer wasn't the one who hurt her.

Sano carefully takes Sumire away from his arms. "You two can argue here for all I care, I'll take her to the emergency room. She needs to be operated on."

Hino nodded. "Take care of her."

When Sano safely entered the building with Sumire, he turned to Eli with dark eyes. He didn't wait for Eli to speak before punching him.

Eli landed on the ground with a large thud. Surprisingly he didn't do anything to fight back.

"What the hell were you thinking? You could have just knocked her out and brought her to me. If I restored her memories, it would have pushed the other soul out." Hino yelled.

Why does this person always do such reckless things without thinking of the consequences?
