Nightmare

Alluring eyes

It was pitch black in there but I was able to distinguish two points of light shining in the far away corner of the dark alley.

I recognize them, this eyes that speaks of hidden secrets and dark past could only belong to the so called Hades.
His eyes were somehow luring me in a way that I couldn't quite understand.

But as my eyes were getting used to the darkness surrounding us I started to see things other then his eyes, for example his slightly surprised expression or his clenched fist or the body of a man that was probably in his late thirties laying dead on the ground....... wait a second

did I just say dead body ?!

I was about to scream for help when suddenly my cries were muffled by a large muscular hand.

With his arms circling me holding me captive Hades whispered quietly in my ears:
"Don't you dare scream"
Unfortunately his menaces didn't reach me because once my danger alarms are rang there is nothing that could stop them.

"Let me.. ngh yo..ugh..go"

I protested while hitting, kicking in all directions trying pointlessly to break free but failing miserably seeing how strong and muscular he was.

"I told you to calm down"
he whispered a bit louder then before while trying to keep me from screaming and calling for help.
But what he didn't expect was the fact that he was holding a stubborn cat in his hands that would not give up fighting for her live at any cost.

I stoped moving for a few seconds and waited until he let his guard down that is when I bitted him hard in the hand like the mad tiger that I was.

He groaned in pain " damn it !!" I heard him mutter but at that time all I cared about was running away from this treacherous man.

I seized the importunity and with all the power that I could gather pushed him away from me taking him by surprise.

To my luck I saw a stick made of what seemed iron, rolling down to where I was standing: perfect weapon.

I kneeled down, crabbed the stick, held it firmly in both hands, steadied my feet on the ground beneath me and toke my fighting position ready to defend myself if he were to try and attack me.

I looked at him with challenging eyes daring him to come any closer to me; but it's not like I wasn't scared, truth to be told my legs were actually shivering and sweat was braking all over my body, my heart was beating faster and faster I could hear it echoing in my ears.

"Calm down and listen to me" he said carefully stepping closer to me while holding his hands up.

"You KILLED a man and you expect me to listen to you" I shouted pointing with my eyes to the dead body.

"You don't understand"

Don't understand what?! Who is he kidding, for god's sake he killed a person, a living human I saw him with both of my eyes.

"I have to call the police"

"No you don't"
He said completely sure of himself.

"Are you going to kill me next?" I asked trying to buy sometime for me to find a way out of here or for someone to somehow pass by this dark alley and help me.

"No" was all he said in response.

Oh god I have to say something talk about something before he would decide to attack me too.
" did you kill your family too?!"

Wrong words! I hate myself , out of all the subjects in the world I choose only the one that will provoke him most, and give him more reasons to kill me today before tomorrow.

I closed my eyes waiting for an ambush coming from his direction, but seeing how I waited long enough and nothing happened so far, I decided to reopen my eyes.

What I saw was nothing like I expected, it made me regret my words not because I'm scared no on the opposite I felt as though I was the bad guy not him , seeing the sad expression on his face made my heart ache when It should be beating out of fear.

He soon returned to the way he was and chosen to ignore my question, and yes it was for the best because I didn't want to feel any more sympathy toward someone who just killed a person.

"Look I promise I won't hurt you " he reassured me with his deep voice looking me straight in the eyes and putting his hands on both of my shoulders.

And the more he gazed at me the deeper i sank and slowly like a poison I was unable to move. The ground beneath me was shaking, everything around me was moving in circles including him. I felt dizzy, my vision was getting blurry until I saw nothing but darkness and to the ground I fell.
