Chapter 326 - The Tunnel Is Empty

Outside the dark and unlit tunnel, two strangely intertwined silhouettes cast a long shadow on the dusty ground. Moving and shifting slightly in their places.

After voicing herself honestly, Sera didn't rush Lucifer to speak, instead she let him think. Still pecking his handsome face like it was the most important thing to do for her existence, as though he's her oxygen.

However, when the man didn't speak or respond to her light kisses on his lips, slightly irked, Sera decided to act rough to erase all the unnecessary thoughts brewing in his head. She knew that he's devilish.

Meanwhile, the said devilish man was stunned speechless by Sera's words that sounded more like a confession. It also reflected the heavens will and wish by bringing them together, this meant that they were bound to be together their whole life.

That's what Lucifer percieved from all that Sera told him, moments ago.

Exultant beyond words, Lucifer's drumming heart swelled with an inexplicable feeling of happiness and jubilation that he's never ever felt in his 27 years of life.

Under Sera's demanding kisses, Lucifer jerked back to reality and his entire being froze, his throat parched staring at her beautifully magnified face. His hands around her waist were still firmly clasped, his lips were being nibbled by the tiny woman in his arms while her hands were inside his half open collar. His breathing turned heavily labored.

In a flash, the top three buttons of Lucifer's black shirt were undone by Sera, her fingers grazing the burning skin on his taut chest which was on display. Her soft lips were now rubbing against his neck, her hot breathe and feminine fragrance that carried her enticing pheromones ignited his beastial desires. His silvery gray eyes darkened with lust.

"Ser.. Sera.. Let go.."

Breathing heavily, Lucifer caught Sera's hands that were roaming unrestrained on his frontal body, turning his head away to avoid her kisses.

"Sshh.. Let me love you with all that I have.."

Shushing the man with her finger on his thin lips, Sera's rose petal like red lips worked with a pertinacious resistance to Lucifer's interruptions. Her breathy voice lingered on the sides of his pink tinted ears that bespoke her persistent, his resolve wavering bit by bit. Her seductive tone coupled with her bold actions fueled his beastly instincts. Yet, the man tried to halt before things could escalate further.

They're out in the open under the night sky, with a number of people outside waiting for Sera. It's impossible to continue, no way. Lucifer's body was on the verge of snapping as he controlled his desires, that were inflaming with each simple touch by the second.

"It's.. Alright, I don't blame you.."

Clenching his jaw, Lucifer hoarsely whispered to Sera who was now hugging him tightly, all his buttons were unfastened. Her warm tongue licking the side of his neck making his cool skin tingle in pleasure.

"I don't blame you too.. I just want to do this for you, Lucifer"

Pulling away, Sera stared at him as she spoke with resolve. Her desire to be with this man had increased more than ten folds after realizing her innermost feelings for him. She truly, truly wished to spend her lifetime with Lucifer.

Hearing some faint rustling sounds and muffled noises, Lucifer secretly heaved a sigh and gazed at the little figure trying to please him with an afflicted smile on his face. He was happy that she was taking initiative, but his love for her was beyond these things, he wanted to give her joy and pleasure too. Not like this, though. He wanted to make it special. Really special.

"Someone's coming this way.."

Gently peeling away from Sera, Lucifer said in a hushed tone. Her brows crinkled unhappily and she harrumphed like a spoiled child. It evoked an amused smile on his face.

"Hmph!"

The smile on Lucifer's lips added fuel to Sera's fury, she smiled wickedly and caught the bulge between his legs giving it a kind squeeze. The man groaned in a muffled manner, his face contorted as he glared daggers at the smiling woman. She was disgruntled by his rejection, yet his reaction to her advances gave her a thrilling satisfaction.

Smacking her lips loudly, Sera turned around and left Lucifer with blue balls and a painful expression. Cursing under his breathe, he stood staring at her receding figure until it disappeared in the tunnel's darkness.

Smirking, Sera's eyes shone with a mischievous glint in them as she strolled through the tunnel, tidying herself. Her swollen red lips were bruised and bitten pretty harshly. She touched them lightly, reminiscing the sensation of his lips on hers, his skin on hers, her face flushed red hot after being reminded of her brazen actions from earlier.

"See.. I told you, there's nobody here. The tunnel is empty!"

Standing across the tunnel's entrance, Maya said exasperatedly looking at Xav who was flashing the flashlight into the tunnel. She even raised her hands to add drama.

"But.."

Still unconvinced, Xav was perplexed as he mumbled seemingly in low spirits.

"No buts! Brother, please.. Get a grip on yourself"

Shaking her head, an austere expression appeared on Maya's usually carefree countenance. It low-key frightened Xav whose face went pale like a thief caught lying.

"What the hell are you saying.."

Averting his gaze, Xav tried to sound normal as he posed a question to prove his act of innocence.

"Hey!! What are you doing here?"

Like a ghost, Sera emerged from a different direction than the tunnel's and surprised the duo. They heaved a sigh, the color on Xav's face returned and he looked quite relieved. Maya held both her hands and smiled.

"Sera! Thank God you're here, me and brother were searching for you.."

Appearing quite awkward, Sera tried to hide her bruised wrist and lips, she hurriedly retracted her hand and smiled biting her lips. It was unnatural of her to do so.

"Oh! I'm sorry.. Let's head back, I'm dead tired"

Xav stared at Sera's pink face that was turning hot under his keen eyes, her hair were messy and her eyes were red and watery. It looked like she'd cried. He was about to speak when her voice forced him to swallow back his words begrudgingly.

"Yeah, let's just go back and get some sleep.."

Sensing the strange atmosphere, Maya expressed her assent and yawned, pulling Sera away from Xav's scrutinizing gaze. He had seen her wrist that had a fade red mark and her swollen lips too, his heart clenched tightly as he followed after them with heavy footsteps.
