Our Love (Ryomen Sukuna x Reader)

Markings ~ Ch69

¤ 3rd Point Of View ¤

"Is this your bedroom?" (Y/n) asked in slight awe, walking around Sukuna's chambers with curious eyes. Sukuna hummed in reply, not bothering to use his words as he was quite distracted by how ethereal (Y/n) looked in her plain white hadajuban which one of Sukuna's supporters had left outside the door to his chambers along with other female kimonos.

It was quite funny to be honest, considering Sukuna hadn't even requested clothing for her yet. They just knew. The man hadn't even told them that she was here- not that it was any of their buisness, though. Sukuna never really spoke to his supporters unless he needed something or they tried to force an interaction- which the young ones tried to do alot. However, the longer they serve him, the more they understand what not to do.

The girl's legs were bare infront of Sukuna, her silky smooth skin was practically glowing under the light of his lit candle. Sukuna couldn't take his eyes off her- specifically her neck. A smirk graced the man's face as his eyes studied the markings around the girl's neck- the ones she still had no idea were there. (Y/n) noticed his smirk once she finally stopped exploring his room, making her chuckle slight and face him with arms crossed over her chest.

"What?" She laughs, tilting her head in adorable way which only made Sukuna begin to chuckle before his eyes settled on the black markings once again.
"Your neck looks...interesting." He smirked, taunting her with the fact she had no idea what he was reffering to. It was now that (Y/n) remembered that he had said something similar during sex. Her hands automatically lifted to her neck in curiousity, only feeling the bruises rather than what he was reffering to.

"You said something similar earlier. What did you mean?" She asked him in confusion, weakly trying to look down at her sore neck but with no avail.
"Take a look for yourself." Sukuna smirked, motioning to the metal pot of water that was used to wash his hands. She walked over to the pot and kneeled infront of it before peering in, coming face to face with her reflection.

She gasped at the sight, instantly seeing black artistic marking decorating her once bare neck. Her brows furrowed as she leaned in closer, touching them to nake sure that they were real and not some illusion jujutsu that Sukuna wanted to prank her with. But as she came closer, she realised that it streched over her collarbone to the back of her neck. When did this happen?

"What are these?" She mumbled to herself, trying to rub off the ink thinking that it may be removable. But after the first try she realised that it was useless. She slipped off the top of her hadajuban to see if there were any more of these markings anywhere only to gasp once again. (Y/n) saw a fairly large one over her chest, this one down far enough that she could see it when she looked down. There was a word written, she realised. Born again?

"These are markings like yours." The girl realised, looking over to her lover who couldn't possibly look more smug.
"When did these appear?" She asked him, already having a feeling as to when due to the born again marking. But she had to make sure that that word appeared at the same time as the patterns going around her neck. Maybe they had seperate reasons as to forming?

"They formed after you accepted my heart." Sukuna told the girl, explaining the reason while also not explaining the reason at the same time.
"What do they mean?" She asked him, wondering if maybe they had a menaing behind them, or at least as to behind why they formed. But her question only made Sukuna chuckle proudly.

"That you belong to me, clearly." He replied sarcasticall with a smirk, making me her roll her eyes. She really should have expected that kind of answer.
"You know what I meant, Sukuna." She told him with a small smile, shaking her head lightly in amusement as she continued to study her tattoos. The princess didn't even notice her lover begin to stand up off the bed with a grin.

"They act as a binding between your soul and my heart as well as a binding between you and I." The man told her, almost making her jump in suprise as the fact that he was standing right behind her the moment she stood tall.
"They're divine, aren't they?" Sukuna asked, repeating his words from earlier today as he brushed her hair over one side of her neck before leaning down and gently kissing the black marking.

"These mean that you're mine forever." He mused, making her giggle and turn around in his arms to face him.
"My father would have a heart attack if he saw these." The girl mused, already being able to picture the look of shock on her father's face once he inevitably sees them on her once blank skin.
"That would be ironic, wouldn't it?" Sukuna grinned, sounding as if he liked the idea of the emperor having a heartattack. What a poetic way it would be to die the way your daughter did too.

The princess agreed with a giggle, knowing that it would probable never happen- instead she would probably get the biggest lecture of her life. She wondered when that would be, the day that she would return to her family. Sukuna spoke up then, as if he could literally read the thoughts in her mind.
"However, for the time being, you're staying here." Sukuna told her, it not even being a request- more like a demand.

"And why is that?" (Y/n) asked him, not sounding upset at all on his verdit but curious as to what his reasoning was.
"Because there is much to teach you before you can be separated from me. Your inability to control your cursed energy causing you to radiate power." Sukuna began, before continuing, "Currently, you're stable because you in my presence and your leaking cursed energy is being controlled by me."

"However, if you were to go a few days without me- or even one day. Well, you'd probably cause a catastrophe." Sukuna smirked, an evil glint in his eyes almost as if his hypothetical sitaution actually excited him. (Y/n) didn't truly undertsnd what Sukuna meant, all she really got was that she needed to stay with him or bad things would happen. And that was no inconvenience to her.

"That sounds complicated." She pouted, wrapping her arms around his neck which made him pull her closer.
"It is- which is why that until you understand it all and are able to control this new power of yours, you will stay with me. Understood?" Sukuna asked, raising a brow- almost daring the girl to challenge him on the matter.
"Alright." She easily agreed with a small smile, honestly happy to spend more than just a few hours with Sukuna.

"You're not going to complain?" He asked her with a raised brow, expecting some sort of sassy comeback or complaint. But he got neither. His furrowed brows made (Y/n) giggle, her knowing that that was what he expected from her. She shook her head with a smile before saying,

"No...because I have all the time in the world."
