Chapter 1
The Darkness of Love
His eyes shone under the faint rays of moonlight.They say that the eyes are the windows of the soul. I don’t believe in those makeshift nonsense.
His body froze as he stood rigid with his blood red eyes fixated on my trembling form.
Those eyes are gonna be the death of me.
He slowly lowered his armed hand and ultimately dropped his rusty knife on the floor.Was he going to slice me up with that? Cut my stomach open and remove my entrails one by one,as he did with the others?
I certainly didn’t want that.I didn’t want to die yet.My full and miserable life still lied ahead of me like a pole of unwanted sanity.
I didn’t want to die.
Yet as these ominous thoughts circled my mind,his rigid body started to slowly move towards me. “A..ndy?“his whisper sliced the silence in half.His rusty voice filled my ears as I lifted my tear-stained eyes to his red shining orbs. My body trembled slightly as a cold shiver passed through my body,making me cower away in fear.He immediately scooped me in his warm embrace,despite my protests.
“Let me go..“I weakly mumbled as he tightened his embrace and started to softly caress my hair.“Now that I found you,I’ll never let you go..“he said as his voice took a more sensitive and emotional tone. All this time I’ve been admiring him for his cold exterior,but I never knew that he could be this emotional. He just wasn’t like that.
“Please..Seth don’t do this to me..“I softly whispered in his ear while my heart started beating intensely in my chest.He backed away slightly and sneaked a good look at my flustered face as I casted my eyes downwards.I couldn’t look at him in the eyes. I knew that If I succumbed to this temptation then I would lose all self-control. “I’m not doing anything to you,no matter how much I want to..“he huskily said as he placed his warm forehead against mine.
I felt my face take up a warming glow as his now blood red eyes were right in front of me.I couldn’t escape death’s grasp.
He kept his tight hold on me as his mesmerizing darkness slowly took me in.
Losing every bit of sanity in your lover’s arms, doesn’t sound that bad.
Does it?
