{EXTRACT}

"Tell me Celeste," he began as he walked back and forth in front of me.
"Have you ever heard of nyctophilia?"

I slowly shook my head no as my bottom lip quivered.

He stopped to look at me, and smiled that breathtaking smile of his before he went back to walking.

"Well, Nyctophilia is the word used to describe the love of darkness or night"

He paused again but this time stopped right in front of me.

I kept my head down as my heart pounded out of my chest.

"A nyctophile would be the term used to describe someone with nyctophilia."

He then brought his hand to my chin and tilted my head up so I was looking him in his eyes.

Those beautiful golden eyes.

"You, my darling, are a nyctophile." He smirked then added,

"And I am the darkness you find comfort in."
