Being paired with Itadori to retrieve another of Sukuna's fingers is nothing new for you. He assured you he won't let Sukuna take control of his body again, but things didn't go as planned.

The special grade curse was too strong than you expected. And there was five of them. And there were only two of you.

You successfully managed to kill two, thankfully the one with Sukuna's finger, and you immediately gave it to Itadori. As usual, he swallowed it and you had to look away, if not, you'll puke.

You looked at him as tattoos started appearing on his body, indicating Sukuna. You were waiting for those tattoos to disappear, but it didn't. You were too distracted to even notice that another curse lunged on you, throwing you a few feet away. When the curse was about to slash you, it suddenly exploded.

There stood Sukuna, grinning as he mercilessly killed the three remaining curses.

After some fun, he slowly started walking towards you as you rested your back against a crushed wall. You gripped another of his fingers tighter. No, you wouldn't give it to him. Never—

You didn't realize it, but he's already in front of you, looking down at you, grazing your cheeks with his long, black nails. His other hand is in his pocket.

He never hurt you, whenever he switched with Yuji. You never knew why. But what he does is worse. He kept touching your face, as if remembering you. As if he knew you once.

The truth is, you resembled one specific person in his life.

His queen.

His strong, confident, stubborn and defiant queen.

"The brat is really good at nothing." He said, referring to Itadori. His smirk widened as he saw the fear in your eyes. He lowered his fingers to your throat, grazing it slowly. "Give me the other finger."

"No." You said firmly.

"No? You'll end up giving it to the brat anyways." He pressed his fingers on your throat firmly.

You were about to use your cursed technique, but his other hand grabbed your hand and slammed it on the wall behind you.

"No, no, no... not that one." He whispered in your ears. "The other one. The domain expansion. I know you already have one, let me see." You can feel him smirking as he tightens his grip on your wrist.
