Nakime POV

"Has Lord Muzan arrived yet!?" Daki snapped at me immediately.

"Mmm...no...." I answered, with a calmer tone. I genuinely wanted to snap right back at her or just ignore her.

I turned my attention to Kyoka, who was silently crying as she stared at the floor. I had the ever so faintest idea of what had happened.

"He's dead...he's dead....no..." She whispered. I watched her tears fall to the floor.

Pain.

I'd seen her like this many times before. Kyoka cried a lot. To the point, it annoyed me. I held back a scoff as she muttered the same words.

"Quit your whining!" Daki grabbed her by the hair and shook her around. "It's getting annoying!" She yanked Kyoka's hair up.

My eye widened from beneath my hair. Kyoka's almost emotionless expression was one that almost looked like she was dead. Silent tears fell down her face. Like she didn't even mean them anymore. Her expression was almost dead-looking.

"Well!? I said stop you bit- "

"That's enough." Lord Muzan's voice rang out through the Infinity Castle and almost made me jump. "Leave." Lord Muzan's eyes held a cold glare at Daki.

"But- "

"I said. Leave." Lord Muzan's words were commanding and authoritative.

I struck my Biwa, sending her away.

Kyoka POV

"Kyoka." Muzan lifted my chin so that he could see my face.

A look of shock crossed his face before he masked it with a cold gaze.

"Fix me..." My voice was hoarse with emotion. I didn't care what he did all I wanted was for him to take my pain away. Like drinking your sorrows away. Except it was something so much better.

"Kyoka I-"

"Fix me." I pleaded. All the pain inside me could be taken away. Only by him though. Only him. He was like a drug to me.

Muzan's eyes narrowed, a complex mix of emotions flickering behind them. He cupped my face, his touch both tender and possessive.

"I'll fix you. Only if you give yourself to me. Completely." Muzan whispered in my ear and his voice sent a shiver down my spine.

"Anything. I'll do anything. Please Muzan...I need you." I whispered. Tears were still falling down my face.

His expression softened slightly as he looked into my eyes, his thumb brushing away my tears. "Very well, Kyoka. If that's what you desire."

Without another word, he scooped me up into his arms and carried me through the winding corridors of the Infinity Castle, Nakime's Biwa could occasionally be heard. My heart pounded in my chest as we moved deeper into the labyrinthine structure, finally reaching his private quarters. He kicked the door open and carried me inside, the room bathed in a soft, eerie glow.

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

I danced my fingers down Muzan's bare chest while he ran his hands through my hair.

"Mmm...it's been so long..." I mumbled and I felt Muzan's body press against mine.

"You're right...too long..." He muttered and continued to run his hands through my hair.

I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled myself closer to him. I felt him tug ever so slightly on my kimono.

"Mmm...you know I want this off..." He grumbled a complaint.

"M...no..." I told him for the third time.

"Why not...?" He sounded like a little kid begging for ice cream.

"Because...I don't want to..." I groaned and buried my face in the crook of his neck.

He let out a soft incomprehensible murmur and let his hands trail down my back. "Your kimono is in the way..." He protested again although this time a little more forcefully.

"Suck it up." I groaned.

He tugged at my kimono a little more forcefully. "Just one time~" He begged.

I felt my resolve slowly breaking and I finally gave in.

"Fine." I let out a tiny exhale and undid my kimono slowly, tossing it to the ground.

I then prepared myself for what just might happen.
