Eat You Up [Tsukiyama Shuu]

Three

Tsukiyama keeps to the shadows, cloaking himself in the darkness, as he watches her walk around. Was she such a foolish girl to walk in small, nearly forgotten, streets when there were so many ghouls ready to feed upon her scrumptious body? It was not because he was worried about her health, her safety, no- it was because she was bringing his next meal in danger.

Maybe he should just eat her all alone. It would be easy to seduce her, bring her to his place, woo her some more, wine her, dine her, then attack and taste that delicious flesh she carried on her bones.

He doesn't, though. Tsukiyama only follows her around, feeling like a dog, and makes sure other ghouls know to whom (Name) belongs to. She is his and none other has the right to place a single finger upon the unmarked skin. Tsukiyama is ready to treasure her, keep her alive some time longer, draw out the full potential of her body- with love and care.

Tsukiyama surprises her half-way to her apartment and she gives him a brilliant smile, looking so damn happy because her eyes set on him. He smiles back, a compliment smoothly falling from his lips before he kisses her hand. She is so easy to fool and he, mentally, deciphers her psychological scars: abusive parents, little to no affection in her childhood, few friends who were not close enough to be called as such. He tears her down in just a few moments.

Tsukiyama embraces her, arms wrapped tightly about her back and waist. Her face is close to his, lips lingering just a touch away and he knows how much she is wishing he'd press his lips against hers. Her heart is already his and he wants to have as much use out of it before it becomes food- let it be psychological food, her heart,her feelings for him. Tsukiyama was good at using emotions and (Name)'s were nothing different.

Her heart would be even tastier after betrayal.
