Her Demon Lord

Her Demon Lord- Chapter Eleven

I can see a pattern forming already. I fall asleep in Chases's arm's, wake up before him and gaze at his face, feel a little disgusted with myself for playing this game but also thankful for the situation. I trace the contours of his face with my finger gently, not wanting him to wake yet, I feel a spasm of joy that I get to spend time with this man, that I actually married him. But then then reality always has to rear its ugly head. I have to spy on him, report back to the who are willing to use less than stellar actions to gain what they want. In the end, I could end up destroying this man just by speaking. It's a heavy burden since I don't want to destroy him. I hate to admit that I care but I truly do.

Chase wakes up and sees me leaning over him. A smile snakes its way across his perfect face, and I have to smile back even though something inside me shatters. I continue my perusal of his already memorised face, hunting for a flaw knowing I won't find one. His hand slides behind my neck and he brings my face closer to his. My breath hitches, the space between us is tiny and keeps closing further. Our lips touch, just a bare hint of a kiss and my world crumbles away. I press in nearer to him, fusing our lips together as I lose myself in his kiss.
