The Spider Lillies Kiss (Muzan x fem! reader)

Chapter 5

After a few days of your little incident, you sat in your small wooden cabin just at the edge of the forest, lost in thought about the demon with lovely red eyes that looked at you so lovingly and lost.

"..why did he..look so..sad.." you sighed and walked outside, sitting on the front porch boredly, the cold night breeze touching your skin as you wrapped your kimono up more tightly and securely.
"..why am i even thinking about a demon..a demon who probably murdered families in cold blood..snap out of it y/n" you slapped yourself lightly, trying to break your thoughts of him away, failing.

The moon sat up in the night sky proudly, being the only source of light for you as the towns lights and lanterns were far away from reach. The night breeze kissed your cheeks as you looked at your hands quietly, fiddling with the sleeves of your kimono, shivering before grabbing a bucket, holding it to your hip with an arm and walking off deeper in the woods, humming.

As you walked, you felt a pair of eyes staring at you, watching you as if you were their prey, which you were.

You furrowed your brows before shaking off the feeling of being watched and walked up to a small river. Kneeling down you grabbed the bucket and placed it down in the river, filling it up with water humming while smiling to yourself as a few fish swam around the bucket curiously as you laughed to yourself. "..that'd be good dinner wouldn't it.."

You yawned and gripped the bucket, struggingly picking it up huffing and holding it to your hip again as it keeps slipping and you groan. "Come ONNN"

setting the bucket down, you grip its handle and start dragging it along the path back to home before spotting a man, laying on the grass with a bloody wound on his side as your eyes widen, gasping and dropping the bucket instantly, rushing over to the mans side.

You stared down at the beautiful man infront of you, his black raven hair covering half of his face, a flaming red mark on his forehead and one on his cheek, spreading to his neck. Black hakama pants tied with a white belt and a purple pattern kimono covering him.

His breath was shallow and rugged as you quickly snaked your arm under him and struggingly sitting him up as he side eyed you with narrowed eyes.
You stood up, helping him stand up straight as you quickly started walking towards your home with wide eyes.

He stumbles slightly, almost faceplanting the ground, dragging you down with him before he straightens up, huffing as you sigh in relief.
"A-are you okay?? What happened to you?! Did a demon get you??"
You stumbled over your words with worry as he huffed and hanged his head. "..i'm f-fine..i've just been poisoned..it'll wear off soon."
You stared at him in slight disbelief before kicking your door open struggingly, stumbling inside with the man.

Looking around in a panic you trip amd faceplant the floor, muffledly groaning i to it and sitting up, rubbing your nose.

He stares at you with a blank face before you grip his hand and drag him over to a futon, laying him down in it.
"..you can..stay the night..and i'll try to patch you up the best i can..uhm..what's your name?..i'm y/n.."

He stared at the ceiling quietly, closing his eyes and letting out a frustrated sigh. "Kokushibo."

You slowly nod smiling weakly. "..it's uhm..nice to meet you..are you a slayer by any chance?..given your sword.."

Kokushibo side eyes his sword with a dead face before nodding. "Yes."
You nod before standing up and walking off to the kitchen humming, setting a pot of water over the fire and waiting for it to boil.

You grab a cup and a mint herb, slowly making tea and walking back over to kokushibo, kneeling beside him and placing the cup of steaming tea on the ground.
