Chapter 738 Where is Sunny?

Another two hours had gone by before Lilou and Samael finally collapsed on the landscape. They were already catching up to their breathing, staring at the starless night sky. Law and Tilly had already gone inside the manor an hour ago so the boy could rest properly on the bed. But the rest remained until the two lovebirds collapse.

"Ah, goodness!" Samael breathed out, patting his chest as if that would help him calm his racing heart. "I think I'm growing old. How am I out of breath just after five hours of blocking my wife's attacks?"

Lilou closed her eyes, slacked jaw. Just like Samael, she couldn't believe she was out of breath after just five hours of fighting. They used to fight their enemies all the time; sometimes, each battle would last overnight. As for Samael, it would last for days. "Lilove," Samael called in between his ragged breathing, glancing to where she was lying flat on her back. "Did you calm down now?"

"No." Her voice was cold, casting him a side-eye. "I can't believe you." Gét latest novel chapters on nov(e)lbj/n(.)c/om

"Oh, come on."

"Sam."

"I'm sorry." Samael zipped his mouth and focused on recovering his strength. His wife had gone all out and if he had lowered his guard, he would've lost a limb. Worse. His life. Surely, his wife had always been so intense and her anger wasn't easily quenched.

Lilou pressed her lips into a thin line, biting her lips out of habit. "Everything already happened and we can only try to regain control over our lives," Samael continued with a deep exhale. "You can wield Lakresha and Catharsis is still responding to you. But I have to borrow Catharsis, for now, to send some motherfuckers back to hell where they belong."

"Catharsis had been yours, to begin with." Her eyes bore melancholy, but an underlying danger lurked within. She gripped the scythe that was still within her grasp as it slowly turned back into a necklace. "Using this necklace... I will surely choke them all to death. How dare they mess with my family?"

Samael let out a low chuckle and cast her a look. His eyes softened, staring at her sharp side profile. His wife was back, and he had mixed emotions about it. Would he feel relieved now? Or would he prefer if she was that naive, innocent Lilou? He couldn't know for sure, but what he was certain was that he would miss that version of her one way or another. "Lilove, I miss..." he trailed off when Lilou suddenly murmured Sunny's name. His eyes slowly dilated, watching Lilou face him with genuine wonder in her eyes. "By the way, where is Sunny?" 'I'm dead...' Samael carefully moved away, making Lilou's eyes narrow.

"Sam?" she called, propping her shoulder against the ground. "Where is my daughter?"

"I'm..." he laughed awkwardly before hopping away like a grasshopper. "... sorry!!" "Samael La Crox!!!" Lilou roared as her eyes lit up once more, jumping from her spot. She ground her teeth, calling Lakresha, to kill her husband for real this time. Meanwhile, as Lilou disappeared from her position in a blink of an eye to catch Samael, their audience could not help but shake their heads. "Seriously... just when I thought we can discuss this properly." Klaus let out a deep breath, shaking his head in dismay. "I don't think they can sort it out until the morning."

With that being said, Klaus dragged his body up and dusted off his trousers, heading back inside without care if Samael die. As he returned inside, he glanced at Claude's figure, only to sigh once more.

'Whatever... I'll talk to him tomorrow.'

When Klaus left to rest, the individuals who were left behind also returned to rest for tonight. And yet, no one prayed for Samael's safety, nor did they ever think he would even come back tomorrow in one piece.
