My Stepmother Is an Ex-Demon Queen-Chapter 27 - 28 – “I Was Married in a Timeline I Don’t Remember and Now My Wives Are Fighting in the Library”

Chapter 27: Chapter 28 – “I Was Married in a Timeline I Don’t Remember and Now My Wives Are Fighting in the Library”

1. Who Even Is This Timeline Wife?!

Let’s recap.

I was already dealing with:

A fire princess with anger issues (and fireworks in her purse),

An ice queen who expresses affection via hypothermia,

A tsundere ninja who could probably kill me in my sleep,

A moon goddess who heals me only after I suffer,

A demoness who thinks jealousy is foreplay,

And Chainsaw-Chan, my underworld fiancée with a bouquet made of literal bones.

Now?

A mystery woman from a deleted timeline has shown up with my name inked on her wrist, claiming she’s my first wife.

And she’s calm. Too calm.

She introduced herself like this:

"My name is Arisu. And in the timeline that was erased to protect the universe, we were married."

Me: "Ha. Haha. I think I need to lie down."

2. Emotional Nuclear War in the Library

Before I could process anything, Luna whispered:

"We have to verify the marriage."

And that’s how we ended up in the Forbidden Love Library — a floating, candlelit archive containing every romantic contract, soul bond, magical flirt, and forbidden crush in the multiverse. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Yes. It’s real.

"Yes," Airi explained. "It’s magically binding. If two people were ever in love, there’s a book here about it."

I found my section.

It was three shelves long.

Ayaka: "Told you I was main girl material!"

Lilith: "We ALL have books, sweetie. I’ve got four volumes and a sequel planned."

Sayuri: "Where’s mine—WAIT WHY IS IT MARKED TRAGIC?!"

Chainsaw-Chan: "Mine’s on fire. That tracks."

Mirelle: "Mine’s frozen. This also tracks."

Arisu walked past all of them and pulled out a golden tome labeled:

"Kazuki & Arisu – Timeline 47-A: The Marriage That Never Was."

She handed it to me.

I opened the first page and saw myself... older. Wiser. Smiling like I’d never smiled before.

And standing beside me was her.

Holding my hand.

3. Magical DNA... of the Heart

"No offense," I said, clutching the book, "but how do I know this isn’t Photoshopped magic?"

Arisu nodded and touched my forehead. A warm pulse surged through me.

A memory hit me.

A moment—one I never lived—of standing at a cliff, kissing her under a sky full of falling stars.

The scent of lavender. The way her hand felt in mine.

My heart skipped.

"Okay," I whispered. "So we were... real."

Ayaka: "Kazuki. No."

Sayuri: "Not another one!"

Lilith: "She is elegant. I hate that I love it."

Chainsaw-Chan revved her bouquet.

Reika: "You better not be pulling a timeline thot act. I trained for this."

4. And Then the Fighting Started

Airi: "Nobody fight in the library!"

Me: "Please don’t fight in the—"

BOOM.

Ayaka launched a fireball at Chainsaw-Chan.

Sayuri tried to block it and tripped over a love scroll.

Mirelle screamed and iced the ceiling.

Lilith summoned shadows, Luna screamed "GROUP THERAPY!" and launched everyone into a magical stasis bubble.

Except Arisu.

She just stood still, watching it all unfold.

Then, she turned to me and said:

"I don’t need to fight for you. If we were truly meant to be, you’ll remember why you loved me."

Cue dramatic harp music.

5. A Private Talk with Arisu

Later that night, we sat on the edge of the floating library platform.

"Why are you here?" I asked quietly.

"I came back to fix the mistake. You were erased from my timeline to save the world, but now that the multiverse is merging, I have a second chance."

I looked at her, heart confused.

"And if I don’t remember you?" I asked.

She smiled.

"Then I’ll fall in love with you all over again. From zero."

WELL THAT’S UNFAIRLY ROMANTIC.

Somewhere in my chest, something thudded. Loudly.

Cursed heart hormones.
