"Aren't you scared of me?" He laughed, bitterly. "I can kill you in a heartbeat."
She snickered, that same chesire grin on her lips as she trailed the knife down his neck, slowly but softly. She looked at him with her emerald orbs, she seemed to get lost in his blue ones as she avoided his softening gaze. In that moment, they felt something different... But she pulled herself away from that feeling. She narrowed her eyes at him once again, her malicious grin returning.
"You think you're so dangerous, Señor Moretti?" She said, leaning close to his ear, her cold and minty breath slightly making him shiver as she chuckled, menacingly. "Think again."

Would you do anything for love? Even if everyone tells you to stop, would you still continue? Even if you get hurt a million times, would you still fight?
I guess that's what happens when you're in love. She pulled me out of the bitter darkness that I was in. She showed me love. The type of love that I never felt before until she came in. She opened up my heart without even knowing it. She cured my scars that were bleeding my whole life. She cured my pain. She's the cure. The type of cure that I would die for.
My venomous cure...
