"Your woman?" Rin gave the taller demon a skeptical look. He didn't back down however, and Amaimon stepped forward.
"You heard me Okumura." His grip on Aria's waist tightened.
The girl was getting very flustered. She had never received such attention before, especially from two boys but it wasn't the time for that. Pushing aside her embarrassment, Aria gave Rin an apologetic look. "Rin, don't you have to go see your brother and Shiemi?" She urged him.
The young demon stared into her eyes and nodded. "You sure you'll be alright?" He glared at his older, demonic brother.
"Yes, no worries, now go, before your friends worry about you." She smiled at him but it did little to ease his anxiousness. After a few seconds, he glanced at her once more and then started to walk away. Amaimon wasnt having it and made a move to chase after him but Aria grabbed his hand before he took off. "Wait!" She called to him. He did so and stared down at her with an annoyed glare. "Don't give me that look! Rin wasn't doing anything wrong! I was the one who approached him and hugged back." She glared up at the taller demon, she wouldn't back down.
"I thought you said you loved me." His gaze softened a little and she blushed in embarrassment. Realizing she was still holding onto his hand, she abruptly released it. The girl was feeling her face get hotter and hotter by the second at what Amaimon had said and her palms were begining to sweat.
"I-I didn't, I mean, well, I, when did I say that?!" She was being defensive as she was caught off guard by such a forward statement.
"You will deny it?" He glared at her again. His sharp gaze struck fear in her. "In the car with Anuie, you told him didn't you?" There was awkward silence. He was trying to force it out of her. Did Mephisto tell him? Of course he did! Who else would have?!
"I meant as a friend of course!" she blurted out without thinking. She wasn't sure if he felt the same and didn't want to confess her feelings for him now. Not in this setting anyway. Not untill she was sure he felt the same.Then, for a brief second, she thought she saw the demon give a pained, shocked expression but was soon replaced with his usual stoic self.
"Well I was the surprise Anuie promised you. I was the hamster he gave you and heard you say it to him. I must have misinterpreted." He stared into her chocolate eyes as if searching for something. Perhaps the truth? How he wished what she said was a lie. He waited a moment to see if she would retreat her last statement but she didn't. She changed the subject.
"You were the hamster?! You were with me the whole time and Mephisto didn't tell me?! I cried and grieved you! How could you let me suffer like that! You and your brother are much more alike than you realize! You're both cruel jerks! And also-" But she was cut off by Amaimon taking hold of her face with both his hands and placing a delicate kiss upon her lips.
Aria was utterly shocked. She didn't know how to react but just as suddenly as he kissed her, he pulled away. "I was a hamster, I couldn't speak." He spoke in an innocent tone. She knew he was right but she was still angry with Mephisto for not saying anything. Still unable to fully process what just happened, she just stared at the green-haired demon with a bright red blush creeping up on her face. "Anuie said if a woman talks too much, you should kiss her to make her shut up."
That wasn't his only reason for kissing her. Mephisto had told him if he could get Aria to confess her feelings for the King of Earth, then he should kiss her and make their courtship official. Though she denied she loved him moments ago, he switched to plan B. Mephisto had also advised Amaimon that if the girl was too embarressed to admit to her confession, he should kiss her. If she didn't push him away, then kiss her again and she would confess. So that's what he did. He still held her face in his hands and brought her close to him.
"Maybe my mark on you wasn't strong enough..." He whispered, only inches away from her lips. "Maybe I should do it again..." His husky voice sent a shiver down the girls back. Her heart beat violently agaisnt her chest. She could hardly breathe. Amaimon gently kissed her once more. He allowed his lips to linger there a few seconds before deciding to do a little something more bold. He parted from the girl and took her into his arms. Holding her tightly agaisnt his chest, he jumped high into the air and jumped from rooftop to rooftop untill he found a building to his liking.
Still, he held her close to him and she didn't make a move to leave. Without hesitation or warning, Amaimon kissed her a third time but this time, was a little more aggressive. He licked her bottom lip asking for entrance and she obliged. Her heart continued to race and he placed a hand on her waist. The other was playing with her ebony locks. Suddenly he stopped kissing her and pulled her head back by her hair gently. Before she could react, Amaimon was biting down on her neck where he had before. Aria moaned in pleasure, though it did hurt a bit, and the greedy demon grunted in approval.
He loved what he was doing to her. He could feel she was becoming aroused and he wanted to take her. However, he needed restraint. Anuie said for him to take his time and his brother knew best. As he removed himself from her neck, he let go of her hair and stared deeply into her eyes. "There. Now any demon that comes near you will know you belong to the King of Earth." She remained silent, trying to hide the fact that she immensely enjoyed what he just did. Even though he was marking her as 'his' a second time and it seemed rather selfish, she didn't mind.
"I love you." She whispered. Her courage finally broke through and she was able to say what she wanted to for so long now. "I'm sorry I denied it before I just, you caught me off guard and I, I was embarrassed. I wasn't sure if you felt the same." Aria shyly stared at her feet.
Amaimon never thought he would hear those words. Never thought that anyone would feel this way for him. It was a foreign concept for him. A foreign feeling. He didn't completly understand it but one thing he knew for sure was he would kill anyone who looked at Aria the way he looked at her. If anyone even touched her, he would kill them. As he stared down at her red, swollen lips, he licked his own. His heart thumped harshly inside him and he took hold of both her shoulders. He was careful not to dig his claws into her.
"Say it again." His voice was gruff and it was more of a command than anything else.
"I love you." She whispered once more without hesitation but unable to meet his gaze.
Amaimon hesitated for a brief second but pounced on her again. He kissed her deeply and lovingly. He placed a hand on her hip and brought her closer to him. She moaned in his mouth and it took every ounce of strength he had to restrain himself. She wraped her arms around his neck and pulled him closer, if it was even possible. After what seemed an eternity, the greedy prince reluctantly pulled away from her so they could breathe. He rested his forehead on hers, her arms still around his neck and he had his around her waist. His chest heaved rapidly, as did hers.
"If this is love, I'm happy I've only felt it for you." He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He wanted to remember this moment forever, wanted to remember her scent forever. Amaimon couldn't fathom the possiblity that this was real. No one had ever made him feel this way, this couldn't be real. His chest hurt and tears brimmed in his eyes. He knew full well what lust was. He'd felt it a thousand times but this, this was new. This felt so good it was painful. Is this what his satanic father felt for that human woman? Yuri was it?
Aria removed her hands from his neck and hugged him tightly. She nuzzled her head against his chest and he returned the embrace. He hid his face in the crook of her neck and allowed the tears stinging his eyes to fall. Did she have him in a trance due to her angel powers like Mephisto had warned? Or was he truly in love? At this point he didn't care. She admitted she felt this for him and that's all he needed to know.
