Here he stood before you, with something off about him. He looked down at you with those impossibly dark eyes, the first thing you noticed about him when you first met at the altar on your wedding day. Looking into them you often thought how a man's eyes could be so dark, cold and yet warm. If you could swim in his deep eyes to learn the currents of him you would, part of you wanted to just be closer with him, maybe you hoped there was more to him than before and you just had to go searching for it.

I had never seen a monster before, I had this misconception about how it would be. I thought for sure it would be dripping fangs and sharpened claws so to speak. I thought it should at least be easy to tell, that something so evil, so black would leave a mark. Some indication of the stained soul beneath, that if all was fair you should at least be able to tell, feel the evil coming off them. Oh how very wrong this foolish notion was and how unfortunate for me that the very first monster I would ever see would be so horribly beautiful. You would never know from that face, those gentle eyes, the soft spoken politeness. How could I have known that I had just said hello to the angel from my nightmares.
