Thank god it was Saturday and I didn't have to try and focus on anything school related..was my mind just so preoccupied with the cupcake that it manifested in my dream? That could really be the only reason right?

My mind started to wander as I thought about what Sukuna had said, every night you will wait for me here...was I supposed to try and dream about him? What would happen if I missed a night? Do I even have the ability to make conscious decisions that will carry into my unconsciousness? I had so many questions about how this would work and nobody to ask. It really did sound crazy to think about.

I was deep in thought when my phone rang. It took me a second to come back to the present. Dylan's name flashed across my screen. "I wonder what he wants." I muttered to myself, I was a little annoyed at the interruption to my thoughts, but I decided to answer anyway. "Hey Dylan, what's up?" There was no answer from the other end...he must have accidentally called me. I hung up, put my phone on silent and kept thinking about my dream and what might happen tonight.

As I got ready for bed I decided to wear pajamas that Sukuna may appreciate more, I didn't know if it worked this way, but last night I had been wearing what I went to bed in so it was worth a shot, even if it seemed dumb. If I was gonna show up, I was going to try and make a good impression. I may as well have fun in my dreams right?

----------------------------------------------------

I didn't even realize I had fallen asleep until I found myself in the same room as last night, it seemed completely empty. Sukuna had said if he wasn't here then I should wait for him, he didn't say anything about exploring the room itself, and it was a beautiful room.

The walls were a deep red colour, they matched the sheets on the four poster, king size bed. The curtains over the windows were black as midnight, they didn't let in any light from outside. The room was beautifully furnished, with large bookcases along a far wall, a large couch sat in between them. There was the door into the hallway at the opposite side of the room, and two smaller doorways across from the bed.

Opening one door, I walked into a huge closet, it was filled to the brim with dresses, suits, and outfits for any occasion you could think of. I ran my fingers over the fabric of some of the clothes and it felt very expensive. I didn't want to mess any of them up so I left the closet, closing the door behind me.

I decided to take a peek through the other door. Behind it was a beautiful, large bathroom. A huge freestanding tub was in the far corner beside a shower that could easily hold ten people. Everything was made from what looked like black porcelain, gray tile adorned the walls and made it look very modern. I walked over to the bathtub and decided to sit in it. "You could have amazing bubble baths in here..." I mumbled quietly to myself.

"You weren't about to have a bath without me were you?" A deep voice whispered in my ear. I jumped up out of the tub and came face to face with Sukuna. I didn't even hear him come in. "I....I was just exploring the r...room." I stuttered, trying not to stare at the floor like an idiot. God, my heart was beating a mile a minute. "I'm sorry kitten" He almost purred, "I didn't mean to scare you." His hand rested over my wildly beating heart and his eyes met mine, this bastard knew it would scare the shit out of me and he didn't even try to hide the fact that he was amused.

"Why do you look so amused?" I blurted out. Taking a step back so I could try and look him straight in the eyes without my head being craned back. Fuck he was a lot taller than me. "I like making your heart beat like that, it's no fun having you know when exactly I'm coming." He smirked as he took a step towards me. I had to take another step back, the sink was closer than I thought and I couldn't move any further.

"Tsk, I thought we talked about this yesterday kitten. There's no use backing away from me. You're in my domain." He took a step towards me and had me pressed into the edge of the sink counter. Lowering his lips to my ear, he took it in his mouth and started to nibble on it. "You didn't get your punishment yesterday, but I'll forgive you. Don't think it will be so easy to escape from now on though."

I was breathless, his words barely registered in my brain as I was overtaken by the sensation of his tongue tracing along my ear. "Mmph" I groaned as he bit the tip. His chuckle ringing in my ear as he pulled away. "That's more like it" He growled. "Your whole body is mine, but I'll enjoy every second of making you want to surrender it to me." He stepped back, holding his hand out to me.

Looking up at him I slowly placed my hand in his, my mind still foggy from his bite. He started walking out of the bathroom, my hand firmly grasped in his. "W..where are we going?" I managed to get out, finally regaining my ability to speak. He ignored me, just kept walking, he kept walking right out of the bedroom.

"Don't worry kitten, I'll keep you safe. But you have a job to do, and I'm curious to see how you'll handle your first task as my Queen." I could hear the dark undertones in his voice...what am I going to have to do? We came up to a large double door that Sukuna stopped in front of.

"There are three men inside this room. They're going to all plead for their lives and blame the other two for their crimes. It's up to you to determine which one dies. Which one is truly guilty." My eyes widened...Sukuna was smiling, I knew he was a mass murderer, so deciding the fate of one man would be easy for him, but I wasn't sure if I would be able to. "Sukuna, I don't know if I'll be able to choose which one should die. I can't make a decision like that." He smirked at me...eyes cold. Pulling me close so that he could whisper, "If you don't choose one of them, I'll kill all of them."

My heart dropped to my stomach...no matter what I decided, even if I decided not to choose any of them, someone was dying tonight. Would I be able to choose?
