Chapter 6||Where's the Context!?||

I looked at the pink bookmark and pen, us, Legends? Not even Ryuko's a legend and here we are. His hands traced my wings making me shiver under his touch, his other traced my spine making another shiver race my spine, and my tail wrapped around his arm. "You want me to stop?" he asked and I shook my head and he chuckled, and I jumped feeling the under of my wings grabbed, and my face flushed as he pulled away. "Sorry," he spoke as I groaned into the pillow, he doesn't know Thorn. Take it easy, "Just please, don't touch the under of my wings;" I spoke into the pillow as he hummed and my body stiffened as his hands cupped my waist; "Alright," he spoke softly and began to work knots out of my spine as I groaned into the pillow. "You should stay in your demon form this next week, I've been having to massage your back a lot more." I moaned feeling him rub the knot out; "You say it like you don't like doing this," I blinked and our faces flushed as he chuckled; "Thorn don't say that when I'm on top of you." I raised a brow; "hmm why not?" I spoke and shivered feeling his hand glide closer to the base of my wings and brush the under making my face darken; "Or that," he spoke and I gripped the pillow as he traced around the base of the feathered appendages and then between them. "Ass," I shivered as he chuckled and his thumb traced my center. "Hey Thorn, have you seen-never mind." We looked at Axel, "What is it?" He asked slipping off me and I stretched my wings. He cleared his throat avoiding eye contact and we glanced at each other; "Get you're head out of the gutter," we spoke in union and he glanced up and sighed, "Thank hell," I snickered, "Your welcome," he rolled his eyes and turned to Adrian. "One of the demon princes is coming here, and Thorn, I don't know what other planning but involves you." My orbs widened, "Why?" I questioned as he shrugged; "Where did you hear this Axel?" Adrian asked as I slipped up, "I was walking past the higher-up's office and they were saying how the prince is coming here and...offering Thorn." My orbs widened as Adrian folded his brows; "why?" I questioned clenching the sheet as Adrian pulled me into him, Axel frowned and sighed; "I don't know, I just came straight to you two to let you know, I'll go see if Ryuko knows anything." We nodded as the male slipped out and I looked up at him, his grip on my waist tightened and I leaned on him. If a prince is here and the higher-ups are thinking of giving me, then, I took a breath and spoke; "Adrian," I spoke and he turned to me, "Would you like to make a union." He blinked, "A what?" He asked and I grinned, "It's a demon thing, instead of a mark it would be a union," he tilted his head, "Now that's random dear?" He spoke making me grin and fold my brows, "If a demon is here for me, then this will let me know where you are or if you're in danger. If taking me keeps things peaceful then so be it," I spoke and he paused then took a breath and he clasped our hands together, his eyes held a glare as he leaned his head on mine. "Thorn, don't say that," I gave a solemn smile and his orbs widened as I gripped his hand, this...hurts. But if it keeps him safe, our friends safe, then I'll do it. He wiped my tears as I smiled; "They are using me as a negotiation Adrian, I won't have a choice." He cursed, "What's the mark?" My orbs widened, "It's a mate mark? You'd be bound to me, not even death could part our souls." His lips parted and he smiled; "Then mark me." What? "Adrian it's a lovers' pact." I spoke and his gaze softened as I felt my skin darken under his touch, "Alright," I felt my breath hitch as he pulled me closer. "Adrian are you sure," I spoke as he grinned and pulled me in, our lips brushed then connected sending sparks through my body as my hands wrapped around his shoulders as he pulled me closer. We parted as his head rested against mine; "Mark me, Thorn." 

Those damned higher-ups! I cursed as I left the main hall, they want Thorn to marry this prince of hell. Fuck that. I'm getting those two out of here, they even went as far as to put a statue of Adrian but not her with him. It's like they're trying to get rid, my orbs widened. They are, they don't want a demon reaper spawn on their grounds. I sped up, bumping into the very demon I hoped I wouldn't see. I rubbed my head looking at him; "Apologies," I spoke, and he tilted his head a smirk on his face. "I was told to find you to meet my future mate?" He spoke, this little shit. I raised a brow and frowned, "Thorn is her name and she hasn't even been told what's going on, you expect me to take you to her home and be like hey sis this man is your future husband because our higher-ups demand it." I spoke setting a hand to my hip as he hummed, I need him to leave so I can get them out. "I see what you mean, why hasn't she been informed?" He spoke tilting back on his heel, I sighed as his smirk broadened, he's enjoying my rage, calm down Ryuko. "We've all just been informed today, how long have you even planned on taking her?" He chuckled appearing in front of me and he gripped my face; "Watch your tone." His eyes glowed a striking fuchsia and I pulled away, arrogant devil, "You will never deserve her." He laughed, his horns spiraled up, three of them. I'm no match for him, but, I summoned my bow as he smirked. I'll try for them. A sword crashed between us, feathers falling down and his gaze shifted as he froze. A dark inhuman growl filled my ears; "How dare you," She growled and his mouth hung as I kept my eyes down. "Ryuko are you alright?" Adrian, I looked at him and grinned; "Yeah." He nodded and glanced at her, I followed his gaze and froze her wings were opened and her claws gripped his throat as he was pinned to the ground; "Don't touch my friends," his black smoke stiffened as she threw him her horns towering to the sky as her tail swayed. "Go home, we got things handled," Adrian spoke and my orbs widened, a mark was on his neck along with fang marks. "Are you two finally courting?" He grinned and I chuckled; "Finally," we glanced back seeing her in the in-between form. "Fuck off ya prick." She seethed as he stared up at her and his gaze narrowed; "You're marked already?" She set a hand to her hip, "No shit," his brow twitched; "I apologize I was told you weren't, who is your mate I owe them an apology." Adrian grinned and he made his way over, and I watched the demon prince apologize to the new couple and he left. 

I sighed and he wrapped his arms around me and kissed my temple, "That was exhausting." I grumbled and a chuckle filled my ears, "Thorn Lucilfer!" I flinched as he gripped my waist and we turned seeing a higher-up, "What have you done!" He yelled and Adrian glared, "We should be asking you that, Thorn is a reaper-" he cut Adrian off; "A demon! Thorn, it is your time to leave!" He hissed and I folded my brows, "Then I'm leaving too," my orbs widened as I looked up at Adrian, he held a sharp glare. "What, you're a legend Adrian why leave for the devil." He hissed and Ryuko stepped in; "Because she is also a legend, you dare stand there and say she's not?" Her clicked his tongue at the elder reaper, "Keep in mind without Thorn I wouldn't be a legend," his orbs widened as he looked at me, "what magic are you using?" Axel showed up with Edward, "Thorn wouldn't use her powers on us, she's not the type to do that." Axel spoke making the higher bite his lip, Ryuko spoke; "I should've done this a long time ago," what? Ryuko glared at the male; "I am your superior, I have been here far beyond any of you higher-ups either all of you step down or I force you out. I may not be on par with a demon, but I am stronger than you lot." He stated and my orbs widened, "Who will take our positions then!" He argued and Ryuko set a hand to his chest, "I, Axel, and Edward." The two gawked at the man paled and I looked at Adrian, he held wide eyes and he looked down at me. His gaze softened, "Adrian Crevan and Thorn Lucilfer," we turned back seeing the higher bowing to the Chinese man; "From this day on you are released from your reaper duties, you have more than fulfilled the life term us reapers have. You both have free reign of the area and are welcome to come and go as you please if you both choose to stay here then let us know." From this day forward we ended the reaping and get comfortable enough to buy a parlor that Adrian turned into The Undertaker morgue. With my resources, we became a hotspot for gathering information and married after five years of courting. We never wanted to rush things and our friends who were now the new higher-ups had a lot on their plate. This may have just been the beginning of the long road ahead of us.
