I Promise To Take You Away With Me

"Mmm"

Regardless of whether anyone was currently in the bathroom with her, Suzanne continued to cut her skin while humming to herself. This time around, she made cuts on the surface of her chest.

"M..." Suzanne heard a voice but whenever she turns around, she finds the physique of a young boy standing by the tub albeit he had a blurry face just like every other face of her children.

It was most likely one of her son and the blurry face was what her brain could picture since her consciousness doesn't want to believe that her children would actually want her gone.

And so she resumed her task once again. This time around, she makes three cuts on her collar bone.

"M...!!" The voice echoed in her ears again but she resumed what she was doing, not minding the voice of the caller. That's because, this time around she aims the knife for her throat.

"Mama!!" The voice rang louder this time around and for the first time that day, Suzanne's eyes showed glimpses of its original color before resuming back to its blank white color.

"My baby!!... Where's my baby!!" She screamed. Dropping her knife and shoving off the blurry faced figure standing before her.

She glanced downwards while holding the edge of the tub with the hope of finding her baby crawling towards her but she didn't find anyone.

The little spark of hope that had blossomed quickly vanished once more and she was left depressed once again, leaving her to result to the dropped knife in the tub.

The figure rushed towards her again. This time it took the knife she held in hand and threw it towards the edge of the bathroom.

"Mommy!!" With his hand clutched on Suzanne's shoulders, the figure yelled once again directly at her face while shaking her violently.

"My baby!!" Hearing the sound of a child calling her name, Suzanne shoved the blurry figure she didn't like to see away from her as she frantically searched for her baby calling out to her.

"My baby..... Where are you?" She yelled back with her hands clutched to the edge of the tub once more, glancing around to see Mary standing at the entrance and the figure she shoved away hitting his head on the flush toilet nearby. Suzanne was disappointed once again to not see her baby.

"L.... Lord Dante!!" Mary yelled. She tried to rush towards Dante but he gestured for her to stay put.

"My babies!!!.....My babies!!.....My babies!!!" With the fear that her real babies had been taken and thrown away from this world, the distraught Suzanne screamed while searching for where the knife was. There was only one logical explanation she could come up with.

Her babies had been sent away from the world she currently knew, leaving behind a bunch of monsters left to torment and to make her present life a living hell. To avoid any more suffering, Suzanne was now determined to join her real children by committing suicide.

"My baby!!... My baby!!!...My baby!!!" She continued.

Frantically searching for the knife but had yet to discern its exact location. The earlier she left this world, the faster she would reunite with her real babies once again. This same thought kept resounding deep within her mind.

Noticing her distraught state, Dante rushed towards Suzanne and...

*Slap*

"Uh?" Shocked by the force of impact on her face, Susanne's eyes became dilated. Mary standing from afar couldn't believe what she was seeing either.

*Slap* *Slap* Two more assaults were made on her cheeks leaving behind a red imprint of tiny hands which were laid bare on either side of her cheeks.

"Mommy!!!" Dante screamed once again but Suzanne's sanity had yet to be fully restored and so he did the first thing that came to mind.

"Mmm!!!" Having her lips locked with the figure having a blurry face and her body warming up from deep within, her senses were beginning to be restored at a slow pace.

Mesmerized by the new sensation, her thoughts became perplexed by this sudden feeling.

"M....mom!!... It's me. It's Dante!! Do you recognize me now?" Dante asked with tears streaming down his cheeks.

Thinking that Suzanne could shove him away once again, he hugged her tightly with his young petite body squashed against her melon sized G cup busts.

"Dante?" Feeling his hands clutched tightly across her neck and his cold tears dripping on her back, Suzanne lifted Dante to take a look at his face and for the first time in a long time, his face was as clear as the day in her eyes.

"Dante?.... Dante!!.... My son!!.... My baby!!!..." She asserted while hugging him so tightly.

"Yes Mom. It's me," He said. Patting her back with the hope of calming her nerves.

Had all three children shown disdain towards Suzanne, the curse would have been fully effective and she would have had nothing holding her back from killing herself.

'My baby is back,' She thought to herself.

She never would have thought Dante could open up to her. That's because after witnessing the cruelty of her other two children, she had expected the same from Dante. After all, Dante was someone who hardly spoke to anyone in the house so she had feared he too would join his siblings later on.

Days passed by and Suzanne had begun to smile a little in the house. Why wouldn't she? After all, a glimmer of hope had appeared in the mansion she once thought could actually be hell.

Suzanne then tried everything in her power to get really close to Dante. Noticing the fact that Dante rarely smiled or played with anyone in the mansion, she made it her life's mission to make him happy.

She believed doing this could also grant her the hope of saving her other two children. Only once did she ever witness him smile and it was due to the training he had with Alfred.

Even though Dante's father had explicitly ordered his maids and butlers to watch over him as he studied in his room, Dante had no interest in such things and would sneak out to train with whatever he could find whenever his dad had gone on a business trip.

With reports from the Duke's maid about how obstinate Dante had been towards learning things he should have, Damon resulted to more severe means to make Dante abandon the wish of being an Adventurer.

But Dante didn't relent on his dreams and Suzanne became amazed by how resilient he was even though his father claimed to want to do what was best for his future.

Not wanting Dante to become like his siblings, Suzanne informed Dante of her desire to have him play with her every single day whenever he had trained with Alfred and in return she would help him speak to Damon about accepting his dream of becoming an Adventurer.

Dante agreed and as days went by both became really close to one another. During one of their son-mother bonding session, Suzanne had inadvertently informed Dante of how sad her life had been in this mansion.

With tears streaming down her cheeks, she felt a little relieved to have someone she could really talk to. Sitting on a chair while listening to his mother, an eight year old Dante stood and walked up to Suzanne before hugging her tightly.

"Uh" Stunned by Dante's action, Suzanne could feel his cold tears drenching the dress she wore. She didn't expect him to feel sad about her life story.

"Wait for me mom. I promise to take you away with me once I'm old enough and then I'll marry you and make you happy forever," He said with his arms wrapped around her more tightly.

Though she didn't inform him of the curse because he was a child and what could he do. Moreover she doesn't want to see him worrying about her unnecessarily but with what Dante said she couldn't help but sense a wisp of hope that had appeared in his words. Her eyes became teary as she said.

"I'll wait," Suzanne instinctively hugged him back after hearing his heartfelt words.

"Really? Yes!! Then promise to never get involved with Darik and Deborah again. If you see them, you must walk the other way. If you don't want to eat alone, then I'll eat every day and night with you," He said while holding her face and locking his gaze onto hers.

"Un," Suzanne nodded with her cheeks reddened by the close proximity of their face.

"Really? I'm so happy mom," Dante's eyes glittered in excitement.

"Oh? Is that so?....Then kiss mummy to seal our promise.," Suzanne closed her eyes and protruded her lips as she anticipates his incoming lips.

But Dante didn't respond back, he was simply too shy to do it. The last time he kissed her was instinctual. He had never kissed his mom in his previous life and now he was doing taboo acts and making promises to marry his present mother. Shouldn't he be finding other means to satisfy his mother?

'Satisfy?' He thought once more while visualizing an image of a naked Suzanne bathed in sweat and gasping in hot breaths as she beckons him to come closer towards her drenched pink slit which was also releasing hot steam as she spreads it open for him to see.

"Hehe..." Suzanne noticed how flushed her son's cheeks were and she couldn't help but chuckle at his cuteness.

"Aww!... My baby is so cute," Suzanne hugged Dante with her cheeks resting on his. She didn't want Dante to feel too nervous around her, no matter what happens she will do anything and everything to make sure Dante becomes happy.

But she wouldn't be having these thoughts right now, If she had known how Dante was actually having lustful desires towards her
