Dead Set: Rebirth

Chapter 8

The quiet heat-driven night lead into a quiet morning. The room was a little cold due to the weather changing in season. Reina rubs her face against Dio's chest. She was still sleeping as it was now the early morning. Dio slowly opens his eyes and sees his future wife snuggled against him. Her face was a slight tint of pink as Dio's hand cupped her breast under the only piece of cloth that covers her skin.

Dio listens to the soft sounds of Reina breathing before he went back to sleep. The doctors were already here and Reina did not need to tend to Mr. Joestar yet. She needed more rest. In reality, Reina was content being like this. Even if she could not remember a few pieces of her childhood, Reina was content.

Reina was in the kitchen. She was alone cooking eggs, pancakes, and sausages. The servants had the day off and the doctors remained at Mr. Joestar's side. Reina had been preparing a huge breakfast to keep Mr. Joestar's appetite satisfied. She did not want him to lose it. As Reina was focused on cooking, Dio enters the kitchen and watches her from behind. He stands in the doorway. The man was in his pajamas. Reina wore a clean set of clothes and a waist-apron.

"Do you need something? I'll be done cooking in about ten minutes." Reina said as she was watching the eggs cook in the pan. Dio chuckles and shrugs his shoulders. He walks into the kitchen and stands behind his lover. "Dio. No touching while the stove is on." Reina says as she sensed something from him.

Dio wraps his arms around her waist. He nudges his knee in between the back of her thighs to spread Reina's legs apart. "It'll be quick." Dio spoke as he lowers one of his hands against the crotch of Reina's pants. "Dio...it is too early." Reina said in protest. Dio nips Reina's ear lobe before he kisses her neck to leave a mark.

"Please my dear Reina. I need to touch you..." Dio whispers in her ear. Reina shudders. She felt the tension Dio was giving her. Last night was not enough to keep the man satisfied. Tasting Reina's pure sweet innocence with his tongue made Dio more impatient. The young man needed to make Reina completely his.

"Dio, I will tend to you once I finish cooking. You need to eat as well." Reina said as she ignored the hardness of his groin. Dio made sure he felt Reina's behind press against him. Dio sighs and releases her. Reina was too embarrassed to do anything sexual. The feeling of Dio holding and tempting her was complicated.

Reina could only remind herself of last night. "I'll be waiting then." Dio said before he leaves the kitchen. Reina finishes cooking breakfast and places the food on the proper dishes and trays. Reina carries the trays to the respective persons. She was expecting a call from Jonathan later today. Although, she was still unsure of why he had to leave.

Jonathan entrusted her to care for his father. Dio was also to be in her care as well. The doctors were with George every hour. The servants were occupied with the daily chores. Reina had intended to go home, but she did not want to leave Dio. Later in the day, Reina heads to the library to find Dio reading a book.

"Dio, are you free to go into town with me? I need to buy a few things." Reina said. Dio closes the book and turns around to face Reina. Dio places the book on the desk. "Sure. We should get moving now before the weather gets colder for the day. Also, your parents should know about our engagement as well." Dio said as he exists the library. Reina follows the taller man from behind. "You need something from the shop?" Reina questions. Dio was always courteous towards Reina's family. He never disrespected Reina's mother. The woman's kindness never faltered.

Dio saw something that his mother had only given him back then. Even Reina gave him the kindness when they had first encountered each other. Despite the hell he has caused to keep her away from Jonathan, Dio truly loved Reina. He could not see another man with her and he was the only person who had seen her nude. "I want to tell your parents about our future plans. Our engagement must be upon their knowledge. Besides, I do want my future wife to feel more comfortable around me." Dio said as a small smile came across his lips.
