QT: The Secondary Character Counterattacks (Obey Me! characters x Reader)

Arc 1: Counterattack of the Tyrant CEO's Ex-Fiancée (Lucifer x Reader) Chapter 5

"What're you doing?"

"Looking at you."

He didn't expect you to admit it ... and with such a straight face too.

Lucifer cleared his throat. "Do you like my face that much?"

"Very much."

His heart throbbed and his fists tightened on the wheel.

"Hey, Lucifer, I've already admitted how much I like you, but you never did."

He was about to protest but now that he thought about it ...

He fell quiet but you just grinned and continued to watch him until you reached your destination: his private beach.

The car stopped in front of a red carpet. Lanterns lit the way to a lone white table near the shore, decorated with roses and tiny candles.

Lucifer offered his hand and you accepted it with a smile.

Together you walked on the carpet but before you could completely reach the table, Lucifer gently tugged on your wrist.

You turned and saw him looking at you.

"MC, I was thinking about what you said, about me not saying I like you."

"You don't have to rush. I didn't mean to pressure you, I was just teasing. Take your time, Lucifer. I'll be waiting."

He shook his head. "No, I'm sorry I didn't say it sooner. I like you, MC. In fact, I love you."

He pressed his lips on your knuckles before kneeling down. He reached inside his jacket and then held out a dark blue box, inside was an engagement ring. It was brand new and it was designed to suit the original MC's taste.

"Back then, I gave you a sad excuse for a ring and sent my assistant to propose, but now I'm asking again, not as a business partner and not out of duty. I love you, MC. Will you marry?"

You covered your mouth and choked out a "yes."

He slid on the ring and then rose up to cup your cheeks.

"I love you, too," you said and soon found his lips on yours. Your fingers brushed his hair as you treasured every second.

The virgin system was forced to tape the entire ordeal.

Lucifer pulled away. "Where do you want to get married?"

You knew what he really wanted to ask: when can we get married?

"I'm not sure. I guess I haven't thought about it."

He squeezed your shoulders. "It can be as big as you want."

"I don't need a fancy wedding, I'm not royalty."

"You are to me."

You pinched your thigh and tried not to laugh. "Well, I'll think about it, but I'd prefer a private wedding with few people."

He nodded in understanding. You already had enough of the media's attention in the past three weeks. But if you ever change your mind, then whatever you want is just a phone call away.

"As you wish, dear."

As you snuggled into his chest you babbled to the system.

"If I gather enough reward points, can I buy myself a real-life sugar daddy like this one?"

[Host, do not ask for the impossible.]

"You're no fun."

[Host, what will you do about the side task?]
