In a world of monsters, is it possible to find the beauty in each other? Ice melts... Power ignites... Bonds forge... Just in time to clash with the impending storm on its way. ----------------------------------------------------------------- "I think you have lost your mind," Soren suddenly muttered. Then it happened: Annika grinned. A glowing warmth lit inside, heating her cold interior. There was something extraordinary about the simplicity put into a grin. The anguish lessoned, and suddenly anything was possible. Surely the sky could fall if Annika could smile? "What makes you say that?" She asked as she continued her movements. The grin acted as a soothing balm on her aching heart. Annika might've been crazy to become so easily uplifted by an everyday facial expression, but crazy seemed like a much better term to be than slave. "Only a lunatic would approach me in my slumber." His eyes remained shut, and he didn't object to her petting, so Annika didn't stop. "Well... you wouldn't know if you were asleep?" "Mmm," the sound vibrated like a guttural hum, "I awoke the second you entered." "Did you?" Annika asked as she turned her head to study his face, but this time, his eyes were open, revealing those beautiful pits of colorless depths. --------------------------------------------------------------- (WARNING: MATURE CONTENT OF ALL KINDS *EMPHASIS ON THE ALL PART*) Highest Rank: 48 (thanks to you beautiful creatures)

He began walking over to me. This is it. I'm dead. I saw his shoes come into my view as I was looking down, hair covering my face. "Look at me." He growled out. I started to cry, too afraid to look. He grasped my chin and lifted my face to meet his. I mentally gasped. It's the guy from last night. His eyes held surprise too, before anger erupted in them. I cowered back in fear of what he might do. "Who did this to your face?" He growled. I started to cry again and shake. "Him." I whispered and gave a small nod toward the guy who hit me.

Then something happens that makes me widen my eyes in fear and just about scream. In one swift movement, Roman has me pinned against the wall. His hands go to either side of my head, his eyes piercing through mine as his hot breath smelling of cigarettes fans across my face. My heart thumps in irregular beats in my chest. This was just taken way farther than I ever expected, even from Roman. "Don't you dare talk about things that you have no clue about, because if you say anything like that ever again, I will destroy you. You're dancing with a wolf here." He snarls, his voice being chillingly calm. With those words said, he pushes off of the wall, and stalks out of the room, slamming the door shut behind him, leaving me scared and confused. --- When Tessa Lynne Walker is forced to plan senior prom with notorious bad boy Roman Anderson, she thinks it's the worst thing that could possibly ever happen to her.
