The Demons Wife [Meliodas]

023

I stay in the tavern as the boys hunt for dinner, I feel an energy, "Y/N, come to me now," Meli says in our bond.

"On my way," I reply and make my way to him feeling our bond leading to him.

I walk to them and see Gowther's amour, Gowther out of the armour, Ban, King and Meli, "What are you boys' doing now? What happened to you boys hunting for our dinners?" I ask passing Holy Knights, "Why is it, you three decide to keep involved in matters that could put us all in danger?" I ask them.

"Hmm, who are you?" A shirtless guy with a mask on and long hair asks, "Do you know who we are?"

I look at him and tilt my head, "Are you the one who hurt my family?" I ask with a sweet sickening smile.

"Who are you?!" He asks again.

"Y/N, Phoenix Sin of Misery. How do you do?" I say mockingly.

"Wonderful! To think I was going to meet one but I've actually met five of The Eight Deadly Sins! I couldn't be happier!" He sings, "I heard about what went down the other day in Vaizel. I wish I could ask for a match with you, but, it's too bad that I cannot," He says then points to the armour, "Our mission today is to take back the armoured giants head, no more no less," He says.

"Gowther," I say and he looks at me, "Who the hell is in that?" I point to the armour.

"I'm really not sure," Gowther says.

"Well, it's time to do our work. I'm asking nicely, so don't get in the way this time," The Knight says.

"What's your name, shirtless guy?" I ask him as I tilt my head, "I'll just keep calling you 'shirtless guy' till you answer me."

"It's Slader," He says.

"Won't you leave him be, please?" Gowther asks.

"Come on Gowther. We might as well let them kill this monster if they want," Ban says.

"Yeah, we were only protecting him because we thought he was you," King says. 

The monster in the armour roars and begins to attack. I jump back getting out of the way.

Gowther sighs and slices his off the monsters head then walks to Slader holding out the head, "Take it," He says.

I look at Gowther and shake my head, "Typical Gowther," I say and jump down to Meliodas as the Roars of Dawn leave with the monsters head, "I'm going back now, don't be too long boys~" I say and jump off, jumping through trees back to the tavern to finish my task. I hate leaving a job unfinished, from either something getting involved or I'm too dirty or tired to carry on. 

"Diane, honey," I call out looking up to her, "Gowther is back," I tell her and she grins.

"Wonderful! We've nearly finished our search!" Diane says and sits down, "So, I have a question... How come just overnight the Captain is so lovey-dovey with you now? He hasn't looked at Elizabeth at all for a few days," She whispers to her.

"Don't, it's embarrassing... I..." I think quickly for a lie, "I... sort of told him something that I wasn't happy about. I had a go at me for everything and I said that if he truly loves me as he says then he shouldn't be doing what he's doing to anyone but me," I fidget blushing.

"It's cute," Diane giggles.

"Anyway honey, I've got to finish my tasks," I say before walking in and cleans the tavern before opening up for the evening. 

Meliodas and the boys don't come back for ages and we're already halfway through the evening rush. Elizabeth as the waitress, dropping everything like usual and I'm cooking while not poisoning anyone.

Meli and the boys walk in, "Oh, I didn't know we were opening up tonight," Meli says and I look up as he walks to me.

"I thought we should, gives me something to do... But it's the last call soon so," I say calling out the last call for drinks.

Once everyone is out we drink to celebrate the fact we have Gowther with us again. I sit down on Diane's lap as Gowther starts to air out people dirty laundry.

"Princess Elizabeth is in love with the captain," Gowther says and Elizabeth had called out for Meli, "Her hearts pounds, her face flusters and her voice becomes louder. These are the symptoms of someone in love."

"Waaaaaaah! You idiot!" King yells freaking out.

"That was seriously a bad move!" Ban freaks.

The two of them turn to me and Diane, "S-Stay calm you two!" King says.

"No need to go destroying anything you two!" Ban says.

Diane is asleep and I stare at Meli, "And Meli who is it you love?" I ask bluntly.

"I wouldn't still be your husband if I didn't love you," Meli says and walks to me, "Don't upset my wife Gowther please," He picks me off Diane's lap.

I wrap my arms and legs around Meli and rest our foreheads together, "Something had made the captain more in love with Y/N... A spell lifted? No... A charm?... No... Half of a curse?" Gowther lists off.

Meli and I look at him, "And Y/N is protective and is head over heels in love with him," Gowther says, "She'd risk her life for him, no matter what."

"Not ashamed to admit that," I shrug.

"I don't want that to happen any more, you hear me?!" Meli says aggressively, "Y/N!"

"I know honey," I bury my face in the crook of his neck and kiss his neck, "I'll be a good girl, promise."

"That's my girl," He says as he holds me close.
