He leaned against the burning church, his eyes blacked, his expression painstaking. "I mean this both ways. I am used to falling--just not in love. The only way we can love each other wholly, is if you're willing to burn forever while I live." His body engulfed mine when our lips brushed, his wings fending off the flames and the screams rising from within the building.

One Winged Devil... Angel of Death... Monster... Those were the titles he acquired when he descended to Gehenna. On that day, his rage engulfed countless demons. She was just an ordinary girl who used to dream of an angel with emerald eyes, growing white wings on his back and ascending to the sky. One day, angels started falling from the sky. He fell in her backyard. And for some reasons, he treated her as if she was more precious to him than anything the world can offer... * * * * * "Look! An angel!" I said while pointing my finger towards the sky. "Huh? Where?" He raised his head and his eyes gazed upon the moonlit sky in search of that angel. "Where is..." Before he could finish his words, I hugged him from behind. I rested my head over his back and I could listen to his heartbeats. A smile crept over my face as my hand crawled to his chest. "Right here, inside your heart." "Honey, there is no angel in my heart," He stated as he turned around, held my hand and kissed it.

Our Silent Vows
She was mine long before she knew it. I had been raised in shadows, in a world where power was survival and choice was an illusion. But then there was her. She slipped into my life unexpectedly and defiantly, her eyes too bright for a town like this one. She was unafraid of what lay beneath the surface, thinking she could walk away and resist the pull. But every step she took only bound her tighter to me. She was delicate but stubborn, fierce enough to face what others ran from, even if she didn't fully see it yet. She was the only thing I had ever chosen. I would break anything to keep her, everything, even her illusions of freedom. Because in a world that offered no choices, she became my one certainty. I will carve that truth into the world, with blood, if I have to. R.

He was a man of power, feared and worshipped in the same breath, ruling over the world of shadows where morality was a myth and sin was the only language spoken. Love? That was for the weak. He didn't do love. He didn't believe in innocence. Until her. She was untouched by the darkness he thrived in-a vision of purity, a forbidden fruit he had no right to crave. But the devil had never been one to deny himself temptation. And she... she was his greatest one. She should have run. He told her to. Instead, she stayed, unaware that the moment she stepped into his world, she became his. His to ruin. His to cherish. His purest sin. And now, even if heaven came calling-he'd rather burn than let her go.
The Silence Between Heartbeats
She never noticed the eyes that followed her through shadowed alleyways, across crowded streets, and even in the dim corners of her favorite café. To her, he was a stranger-silent, composed, yet always there. To him, she was oxygen, the only thing worth breathing for. His obsession was a slow-burning fire, consuming reason until love twisted into something far more dangerous. Every smile she gave someone else felt like a theft; every moment she spent away from him was an unbearable wound. He knew her habits, her fears, her dreams-details she never told a soul. But the more he watched, the more he wanted to own her completely. And when a man like him decides he can't live without you, escape isn't an option...it's only a matter of time before the hunter steps out of the shadows.Complete

As forces from Heaven and Hell close in, Lily must decide: Is the love she feels for him a gift... or a curse that will destroy them both? Can their love survive the darkness?
