"And in the end", he whispers, his deep voice sending shivers down my spine and I know I'm slowly giving in to it. His breath hot on the skin of my neck "this sweet, little angel can't take her eyes off the devil"
The strong smell of nicotine from the cigarette he smoked earlier, paralyzing my nostrils as I stand still against the cold brick wall of this large apartment complex.
"You are not the devil", I managed to breathe out as I tried to look of a way to create more space between him and me. But there was no chance. In this moment all I could think about was how scared and safe I feel at the same time. A soft chuckle came out from him, while he created the little space I was craving for.
"What makes you so sure, darling?"
And in that second he looked in my eyes, while he still trapped me between him and the wall. This deep forest greenish color in his eyes burying in my mind. It was like I'm hypnotized.
"I saw the light behind the darkness in your eyes" My voice so small I barely heard it myself.
Everybody can be saved, and so can he.
