"Tell me that story again," he whispered, blade against her throat. "Which one?" she breathed shakily, her black hair splayed out on the cold, hard earth. He slowly raked the blade gently across her collarbone, careful not to graze her delicate skin. He looked down at her with nothing less than obsession in his eyes. She was pure gold, and he was the devil trying to taint it. Closing her eyes, she began to recite the only tale she knew, the only one she had ever told him. The one about them. A slight smile tugged at his lips as he listened to her voice, letting the sound caress his ears. As she reached the ending, her breath hitched and she came to a halt, realizing that somewhere in their conversation, he had dropped the blade and inched closer to her face, tracing his thumb along her jawline, his lips brushing against hers. "What are... y-you doing?" she stuttered, her cheeks burning with embarrassment or... was it something else she felt in that moment? But before she could think on it more, she felt his hand grip the strands of her hair and watched as he pressed his lips upon hers. ~~~ The story of two fractured souls uniting. this is about their journey to leaving a imprint on a cruel world that wants to forget them . ~~~ This is an original novel by goldmire_heart.
