"It sounds like a good thing" She paused. "Why do you say that?" "It's like a new beginning. A fresh start. A chance to get away from things you rather not relive. You know what I mean?" I sighed. My thoughts running wild with things I had long thought I had buried deep down. I pressed my lips together. Trying to think of a subject changer. Before she asked about something I rather not answer. The wind stopped howling. A nearby cricket paused in its chirping sound. The chatter that once filled the yard was now a distant sound. Nothing but dead silence filling the atmosphere around us. The night air turning cold and bitter brushed against with lingering creepy touch. Lili's head titled to the side. Her eyes locking with mine. They turned a dark amethyst. I watched as the life that had just filled them earlier slowly leak from them. Right before my eyes. Her absent gaze snatched at my mine locking me in a deadly grip. It was eerie. The hairs on the back of my neck stood attention. I shivered. "You should forget about that fresh start, Alaya. Your past is a lot more present than you think." A chill shot down my spine as she finished her words. I watched her wide eyed as her eyes flashed a bright purple. Almost like the light from lightning bolt of a thunder cloud struck right in the middle of her irises. She stared in to my eyes as if she could see things I couldn't. Understand things that many could never.

He held up his hands, trying to sound casual, but the sight stopped her cold-blood smeared across his fingers, dark and fresh. "Relax, it's nothing," he said smoothly, his voice trying to soothe, but her heart pounded in stark disbelief. Her eyes widened, fixed on the crimson stains, a silent scream caught in her throat. Horror dripped from every glance. "Nothing? You killed him," she whispered, voice barely steady, trembling with a mixture of fear and accusation. "You're a murderer." He scoffed, a cold shadow flickering in his unreadable eyes. "Don't insult me wifey. I'm above that." The weight of his words pressed down like a guillotine as she steadied herself, voice sharp with defiance. "I'll tell everyone. I won't marry you." A slow, cruel smile curved his lips as he leaned in, his breath ghosting against her ear like a deadly promise. "Will you? Go ahead-tell everyone. I'll destroy everything you hold dear, just like your telling would destroy mine. We'll go down together." He leaned closer, his voice dropping to a chilling whisper. "And as for not marrying me... oh wifey , you don't get to choose. You'll be mine-whether it's in a wedding dress, or buried in a legend". He wasn't supposed to pull her in-didn't even understand why he was drawn to her. She wasn't the most beautiful, but something beneath the surface called to him. A ruthless heir haunted by betrayal, he never let strangers close... yet he craved to keep her. ☆☆☆☆
