~ The Deal ~

Chapter Six | Punishment - Part One

!! TW - Violence, Torture? !!

Alastor is on his knees, blood running down his lip onto the ground. Lilith walks circles around him, calculating her next move. She finally stops in front of Alastor, angelic blade in hand. She walks up to him and grabs his chin, forcing him to look at her. She then uses the knife to slice through his cheeks from the edges of his mouth to his ears, his blood seeping into his red suit. Alastor immediately winces with wide eyes, but he somehow still manages to have a grin, now quite literally ear to ear.

Lilith's saeistic smirk remains as she speaks yet again, "Smile, bitch~" She laughs, "You know you have to!"

Lilith kneels down to Alastor's level, leaning close enough for him to feel her hot breath on his neck as she speaks softly yet again, "Believe me, I am going to make you suffer as much as possible, then fix you. After that, I'll just break you again and again until you beg for forgiveness."

Alastor swallowed in fear, his terror enveloping him quickly. What could he do? Should he try and hide? There aren't any hiding places anywhere the eye could see... Fight back? This woman owns his soul, any physical combat would be futile. Should he beg? No, Lilith would only take that as him being a kissass, and just wanting to get out of trouble. Run? She could always form a chain out of the parts of his soul and drag him back. Was there really nothing he could do?

Alastor looks around frantically for some idea of something that might save him, while slowly inching away from Lilith. He realizes this is pointless early on though, and just stares into her ice cold eyes. Lilith continues to walk towards Alastor as he backs up against the huge dark brown doors he entered through. His breath hitches in his throat as he glances up at Lilith then looks away almost immediately.

Lilith chuckles as she grabs his face with one hand yet again, "Why don't you look at me when I'm punishing you? Especially if you don't want me to carve both your eyes out. Then you wouldn't see nothing."

Lilith let's go of Alastor's face, but grabs onto his right arm, slashing at it again and again until his arm is a bloody mess. She then, in one swift motion, slices at his elbow. Alastor is frozen as he watches his forearm fall onto the floor with a loud thud, the sound echoing throughout the hollow room.

Okay, that wasn't as much as I expected. However, I am still gonna be writing the next part out soon, so stay tuned! I also want to encourage comments, because they can help me see what the readers want, and get ideas for future books and/or chapters :p
