I too, was fooled by one of those cunning gazes. I was untainted 4 years ago, pure like the first fall of snow.

     Admiring the wild daises in the meadow, I sat beside the pond looking at the glistening scale of kois and studied their exquisite pattern. "Those kois aren't worth your stares, look at me instead" he mumbled, while holding my chin as he graze my jaw with his rough slender finger contrasting my soft chin. I blushed as I averted my gaze onto the daises, "Look at me" he growled softly as he lifts my chin to meet his gaze, his coal black eyes swirling with passion with his lips parted, waiting for me to make an opening, for him to devour my lips. "You're mine, remember that. If you don't, I'll brand my name onto your skull so deep that its the only thing that your mind will process. My name."
