Prologue
prologue:
I walked through a dark alley on my way to my night shift at the café. Then suddenly I felt an arm forcefully grabbing my wrist and pulling me against the wall. I looked up to see who it was, but before I could even see someone I felt his mouth on mine.
I would recognize his taste from everywhere, a dark, sweet flavor, like honey. I pulled away, and caressed his cheeks, “came to wish me luck on my work?” I asked teasingly.
He grinned, his eyes becoming darker in the lack of light. “Yes, I came to say that I will be waiting for you tonight.” I chuckled. “Same place, same time” he said while kissing me on the forehead.
“Yeah, yeah, please be sure you don’t get tangled up in your work again!” I say with a grin, knowing damn well that he will probably be busy all night. And that he definitely would get problems if he spends the night with me instead of working. He kissed me one last time, and then he vanished into the dark of the shadows. He was gone.
