  " you have a thing for me ?" he repeats with an eyebrow raised

  " maybe.... a little " using my finger to describe a pinch

  " What makes you think that "

  "It's a human thing, we get attracted to good-looking people. I am certain you have girls trolling over you " wiggling my eyebrow with a silly grin

  " humans, no," he said before going back to sit down while I waited for further explanation with confusion written all over my face "every person sees me differently, I may be ugly in one eye and good-looking in the other "

  " wait " even more confused " does that mean I see you....." He cut me off

  " No. You yes me the way I am "

  " I do?" There was silence between us as I thought about the matter. How come I can see him the way he is " is it just me?"

  " you are the only human "

  "But why?"

  " I already told you.. Something is wrong with your head " smiles

  " hey " stared at him with a frown " aren't you curious?"

  "About what?"

  " you know " walking to sit next to him, I swing my arms on the way" why I am so drawn to you, why I am the only human to see your true form "

  " nope " shaking his head, " I told you. You are just too inquisitive "

  " but don't you feel it..... Some kind of force, a connection " our gaze met and we were taken by a long silence

Vicnan

Our gaze met " don't you feel it..... Some kind of force, a connection ". Yes, I do, and it is stronger on my part. That is why I am here, that is why I can't stay away from you even if I try. I didn't know how to tell her.
   I once returned to the underworld hoping I could stay away, using my time to search for Asura and try to find a way to break our boned. That time I watched her from the mirror. It was hard and painful but I was willing to hold back. Then she had to wander into the woods and almost got herself killed. Seeing her again, all the walls I was trying to build, fell. My desire for her increased. Now I don't even know what I am doing again. I am just here, appearing whenever she calls me " don't have a thing for me bonnie," I said, avoiding her question. It took her a while before she responded

  " why?"

  " Because you will end up hurting yourself " with that I stood up and began walking away

  " where are you going? " she stood up as well, not wanting me to leave. I stop at my track

  " I got an underworld to rule bonnie, you shouldn't expect me to sit here and chat with you always " I spoke while backing her

  " oh Yeah " sounding disappointed "but what if........" She was cut off by her ringing phone " oh... Sorry " she apologized for the sudden interruption and reached for the phone on the table. I turn to watch her pick up the call " hello?". The moment I heard the voice that followed I frowned, but she seemed not to know who she was speaking to. She carried a confused expression " who is this?" After a short while of silence, the confusion is replaced with a bright smile " Oh my, Edward " said out loud. Cleopatra turns around and sat down, showing full interest in person on the phone which made me frown. She lost interest in me quicker than I thought she would. " how are you? I watched the news. Is everything ok " at this moment I am supposed to leave but I stood there, watching her talk to another man on the phone when I am present  " investigation?. " she asked " oh" nodding " but won't this cause trouble for the company?" I smelt the worries in her tone. For fuck sake, my mate is worried about another man in front of me " thank goodness. But you would be alright?".
  Her phone wasn't on speaker but I could hear everything he said even what went on in the background. It seemed like he was driving. His next words filled me with anger " is it possible to see you, Cloe "
