Yuki watched Sodom as he happily played with Luka's hair while he slept. Luka had stayed up the entire night, making sure Yuki had gotten his rest, especially after the nightmare he had. Yuki could see why he fell in love with the Opast in his previous life. Perhaps he had already fallen in love with Luka in his current lifetime and he didn't realize it until Luka told him about their past. Either way, Yuki was happy. Even if he was unsure of what the future had in-stored for him under Reiga's wrath, he was still happy that he had Luka and Sodom by his side to ease his pain.

"Sodom, you should let Luka sleep."

Sodom looked down at Yuki and smiled happily as he flew off Luka's shoulder and onto Yuki's chest. Yuki was still lying on Luka's lap. He didn't plan on getting up any time soon, at least until he heard someone approaching the door. "I wish I could remember my previous life with Luka. I know I can just ask and he'll tell me, but I want to remember on my own." Yuki patted Sodom's head as he saw the sad look on the black creature's face. Luka started to wake up and looked down at Yuki.

"Did you sleep well?" Yuki asked as he smiled up at the Opast.

"Yes. I dreamt about us."

"Was it a memory?"

"Yes, it was the day we met. You took me in for the monster I was and changed my way of life. It's because of you that I was able to live and not just exist."

"That makes me happy."

Yuki smiled warmly at the man he loved. He enjoyed the feeling of warmth he felt every time he was with Luka. Luka smiled back and leaned down to place a kiss on his lover's lips. They may have been under the enemy's roof, but it couldn't keep them from feeling happy just by being with each other.

Luze closed Reiga's door behind him as he entered the dim hallway. He was dressed in his uniform and ready to go check up on God's Light. For some reason, he couldn't move away from Reiga's door. He couldn't believe that he had confessed his feelings to his master. He had fallen low just like Luka had done when he fell in love with God's Light. Luze willed himself to move and walk away from his master's chamber. He continued walking, thinking about everything that had happened the night before. He didn't realize that he had bumped into Cadenza until he fell onto the floor and saw the red haired man hovering over him.

"You should watch where you're going Luze. It's not like you to be unaware of your surroundings."

Luze glared at Cadenza and stood up. "Shouldn't you be checking up on the Duras?"

"I wanted to talk with Reiga about something. I'm getting a little bored with the lack of fighting. I was thinking we could pay the Zweilts a visit and taunt them with having God's Light in our hands."

"Reiga-sama is the only one who will make such decisions. He doesn't have time for your foolish suggestions so get back to your duty."

"You seem more aggravated them usual Luze. Did something happen?"

"And why would you care Cadenza?"

"It might not seem like it, but I do care. I've wanted you for the longest time Luze. Haven't I proclaimed my desires to you before?"

"I won't give myself up to a demon lower than me. I'm an Opast. I won't belittle myself to be touched by a General Class Dura."

Cadenza laughed as he started to get closer to Luze. He grinned as he trapped Luze between a wall and his body. Luze didn't have the energy to fight back. After the long night he had with Reiga, his body was sore and weak. How he was able to stand and walk was beyond him. The last thing he wanted to do was deal with Cadenza.

"Don't forget that your family has the brand of the Bloody Cross. It doesn't matter if you're an Opast, you're cursed with the brand of betrayal. The only way you'll be able to get rid of it is by getting rid of your brother's lover. Of course, you could also open your legs for Reiga and seduce him into giving a good word about you to the Demon King."

"I don't have time to listen to you Cadenza. Now step away from me and get back to your duty." Luze tried to push Cadenza away but there was no strength in his arms. Cadenza laughed as he felt Luze's weak push.

"What's wrong Luze? It's not like you to be this weak. Did something happen last night?"

"It's none of your business. You're being a nuisance."

"Oh, am I? I'm sure Reiga wouldn't mind if we had some time to ourselves before breakfast."

"Touch me and I'll kill you."

Cadenza only smirked in response as he grabbed Luze's wrists and pinned them to the wall. He moved his lips towards Luze's neck and gently began to nibble on the skin. Luze struggled to break free, but no matter how hard he tried he couldn't get away. "You'll regret this Cadenza!"

"I'll take my punishment without any complaints."

Cadenza slowly started to move his hand down Luze's body. Luze hoped that no one would show up. He didn't want anyone to see him looking so weak and defenseless. It angered him that he couldn't do anything to get away from the situation. All his energy had gone away after his long torturous and passionate night with his master.

"Cadenza…"

Luze's eyes shot wide opened as he heard his master's cold and ominous voice. Cadenza pulled away from Luze and looked over at his master who stood only feet away. "Reiga, it's impolite to interrupt two people in the mist of passion."

"You can have anyone else to pleasure you, but Luze is off limits."

"Why is that?"

"I've already marked him as mine. If you try anything, I won't hesitate to punish you for your actions."

Luze was horrified that the secret was no longer between him and Reiga. He didn't dare look at Cadenza as he leaned against the wall for support. Cadenza grinned widely, seemingly amused by the revelation. "I see…So Luze has already spread his legs for you. I'm jealous Reiga. I'll leave you and your pet." Cadenza took a quick glance at Luze before he turned around and walked away.

Reiga slowly approached Luze who remained motionless with his eyes looking downwards. "Were you going to let Cadenza have his way with you? I thought you said you loved me."

"I couldn't fight him off. I don't have the energy to do anything after enduring your commands last night."

"Are you complaining?"

"No Reiga-sama, I'm only telling you why I couldn't fight back. I'll get back to my duty." Luze slowly stood himself up and started to walk off. Reiga watched him as he turned the corner and disappeared. He took a moment to take a breath. The sight of Cadenza kissing Luze and touching his body caused his blood to boil. He had fallen in love with the Opast. It was only a matter of time until that love became his downfall.

^_^ I decided to make Cadenza want Luze since Elegy already wants Luka o.o Plus Cadenza is an interesting character who defies Reiga sometimes because of his soft spot for Yuki so I thought it would be interesting to make him want to take Luze for himself. I did say I'd focus more on Yuki and Luka in this chapter, but then I got into Cadenza's and Luze's scene so I decided to do it in the next chapter xD

Anyway I hope you liked this chapter. I am trying my best to update weekly :D Thanks for reading and reviews are always welcomed!

Until next time!
