With LOVE

Seven Sins System Chapter 350. With LOVE

"I thought appearing out of nowhere was normal for us," Puriel said with a smirk, her tone dripping with mockery. She sat there, acting like her popping into the infirmary without warning wasn't a big deal.

I groaned inwardly. She'd clearly gotten too comfortable being here, forgetting that the mortal realm wasn't as forgiving as ours. These humans had CCTV cameras everywhere, and if anyone caught a glimpse of her little disappearing act, we'd be all over the news in no time.

Her smug attitude made me grimace. "Us?" I repeated, raising an eyebrow. "Did I hear that right?" It was ridiculous, honestly. Puriel, the self-righteous goddess of chastity, lumping me—a devil—into the same category as her? I couldn't decide if it was insulting or hilarious.

She narrowed her eyes at me. "Yes, us. We might live in different realms, but we're still not mortals. So, I stand by what I said," she replied firmly, her tone as prickly as ever.

I snorted, shaking my head as I returned my focus to the medicine list in my hand. "Whatever," I muttered, brushing off her comment. Dealing with Puriel was nothing new—same old tension, same old attitude.

The room fell quiet after that, save for the faint rustling of my tentacles as they moved through the shelves, organizing bottles and supplies. It wasn't an awkward silence, more like the usual truce we fell into when neither of us felt like pushing the other's buttons too much.

Still, the quiet didn't last forever. It never did.

"I've got extra breakfast if you want it," I finally said, breaking the silence as my tentacles retracted. I placed the completed list on the desk and turned to her. "Take the one in my bag, though. Not the stuff on the table."

Puriel glanced at me, her expression skeptical. "Why not?" she asked.

I smirked. "The food on the table is from Evie and Rachel. They made it for me." I paused for effect, letting the grin spread across my face. "With LOVE," I added, emphasizing the last word as if it were some grand revelation.

Her reaction was priceless. She rolled her eyes so hard I thought they might get stuck. "Love, huh? That's a bold word coming from you," she said, her tone laced with irritation.

"Thank you," I replied smugly. "Everyone loves a handsome devil like me."

"Not me, Azrael," she shot back, shaking her head with a dry laugh. "Not me."

I couldn't help it—I let out a laugh, snorting as I tried to keep it together. Her deadpan delivery only made it funnier.

"What's so funny?" she snapped, clearly annoyed by my reaction.

"You, Puriel," I said, still chuckling. "You've fallen for me once, don't deny it."

Her glare sharpened. "Twisting the truth again, are we?" she retorted, arms crossed and tone brimming with defiance.

"It's the truth," I said with a shrug, leaning back in my chair. "You fell for me when I was a kid. Back when you only knew me as El, the human child—not Azrael, the devil."

That made her pause. The room grew heavier. I could see the conflict flicker across her face, a brief flash of emotion she couldn't quite hide.

"And," I continued, pressing my advantage, "I'm pretty sure I've got you hooked again as Dr. Allen. I bet it broke your heart when you found out I was your nemesis."

Her jaw tightened, and she turned her head away, refusing to meet my gaze. "Say whatever you want," she muttered through gritted teeth. "You know that's not true. We're only connected by chance—nothing more."

"Denial isn't a good look on you, Puriel," I teased, a mischievous smirk tugging at my lips.

"No," she said flatly, but her tone lacked conviction.

"You know as well as I do," I said, leaning forward, "the thread of fate doesn't just show up without reason."
