"Tell me."

"No."

"Please?" The look in her eye begs for me to let all my secrets out.

"First promise me."

"Promise you what?"

My eyes roll back as I take in her Rosemary scent, "You have to promise me."

"Promise you what, Arsen?"

I take her hand in mine, letting myself fall deeper in love with her ocean eyes, "You have to promise that you will never leave me."

Her lips curve into a soft smile as her eyes playfully stare up at me, "That's it?"

"Promise me, Lace."

"Fine," She sighs. Her small hands envelop my own as she leads them to her waist.

She then proceeds to wrap my callused hands around her body before pressing our foreheads together. "I, Lacey Greenwood, promise you, Mr. Arsen Bates, to never, ever, by under any circumstance leave you."

"Good," My voice is low as I let my hands pull her towards me closer, gaining perfect entrance to the side of her cheek where the curve of her ear is.

"I," my heart begins to race faster as I whisper the dirty words in my true love's ear.

My tongue licks my lips, "I, Arsen Bates, have murdered exactly seven people in the last twenty-four hours."
