"...i love you."
i squeezed my eyes tightly as cold fingertips touched my cheek lightly. tears threatened to fall but i held them back. it would only be weakness in his eyes.
"i won't hurt you."
my lips pulled back in a grimace as the icy trail lowered down to my chin and lingered there for a slight moment. it seemed like a lifetime of holding my breath while he caressed my face; almost lovingly in the way he held me but i knew otherwise.
i hate him. i couldn't bare to see the handsome face in front of me because i would fall in love with those beautiful, deceiving eyes all over again. or that smile. oh lord that fucking smile of his. he knew exactly what he was doing when he used that smile on me. and i fell right into his hands like putty.
what a mistake.
his palm gripped my chin now and he tilted my head towards him. "look at me. gaze at me with those precious eyes of yours and adore me as i do you, my love, my sweet angel."
i didn't have a choice now but to do as he says. he would actually hurt me despite what he said. against my utter judgement and my subconscious screaming at me, i opened my eyes.
and wished i hadn't.
