He is the darkness swelling inside me.
He is my black soul.
But he will save me.

Episode 32 - Dancing with The White Rabbit
"Welcome to my manor!" Count Damien yelled into the room, making me stiffen as Sebastian remained at my side. "I apologize for my late appearance, but I had some preparations to make! Everyone enjoys a good show, correct?"
The audience yelled in excitement, making my lashes lower as something cold consumed me.
"Alright, well the show will begin here in a couple minutes," Damien said then, clapping. "For now, enjoy the lovely couple dance."
Music blasted through the room again, and I gazed up as he walked toward the staircase, my eyes following him closely.
"Now's my chance," I said then, stepping forward.
But I stopped in my tracks when around fifty couples held each other and spun around, swaying with one another with their hands on their backs.
I tried to step around them, but another couple stopped in my way, swirling around.
I gazed back up at Damien, finding him immersed in conversation with one of his people.
"Goddamn it," I murmured, "we're running out of time."
Sebastian stepped forward then, making my gaze snap to his.
He just smiled, eyes glowing under the lighting. "My young lord, there's only one way toward him. We must get through the crowd as average as we can."
My eyes narrowed at him.
He just bowed slightly and held out his hand, lips curling into a smirk. "Master... may I have this dance?"
I gave him a warning look, but accepted it, knowing that this was the only way we could cut across.
I caught onto his hand, and he pulled me toward him at an instant.
I gasped when I collided with his chest, but he just caught onto my hand and pushed it out, setting his other on my back.
