== SNEAK & PEAKS == "You're mine. And I'd rather let hell freeze over than let you say otherwise, Rue!" His eyes stared fiercely, brooding with heat, matching his angered tone. I could do nothing but stared at him, fear consumes me. But I was no longer the woman who would easily be coaxed by sweet words. "Damien. You need to stop this. This is unhealthy." I coaxed gently. With my back pressed against the balcony fence that's reached up to my waist. I'm tempted to think this might be the best way for me to escape. From him. From them. Everyone in this god-damn mansion. "Don't you fucking do it, Rue." His tone softens when his eyes stared at my fingers, clutching onto the railings like my live depended on it. "If you don't back out, I might just do it, Damien. I don't care that I'll fall to my death." I gritted those words, meaning half of it to be true. When he made no move to back out, my fingers only clutched onto the freezing steel, turning my blood cold. "Try me." I sneered. He stayed in his position only for a good couple of minutes before he took a couple steps back. His eyes never left mine, as I willed myself to remained unfazed. I don't care how his eyes are raking me, or how his brain is churning in ways to catch me off guard. But I know for certain that Damien wouldn't risked anything to hurt me. Even if it meant he had fallen out of love with me. ---------- Rue lived a life of lies. But that didn't came into light till her maternal mother decides to show up unannounced at her front door.
