[WARNING: Mature Content 18+] "My soul craved yours from the very beginning of time." ____ Theodore Blackwell was the very reincarnation of the Devil yet Eva fell straight into his arms, not knowing that the Devil doesn't come to you with a red face and horns. He arrived in her life as everything she had ever desired... [Excerpt] Instead, a tall man stood there looking like the very reincarnation of the devil himself and Eva felt uneasy as she felt the dark aura around him markedly. He was handsome looking, no, handsome was not enough to describe his appearance. It was hard to describe him as handsome when she had seen no one as attractive as him in her whole life. His hand was in the pocket of his slacks as he walked forward in her direction. When she noticed him coming close to her, Eva took a few steps back until her back met the hard wall behind her. He didn't stop approaching her and Eva held her breath when he entered her breathing space. She was a head shorter than him so he leaned down until their faces were in front of each other. His hand was placed on the wall, right beside her as Eva stared straight into his obsidian black eyes which were darker and deeper than normal human beings. Was this a staring competition, thought Eva as she tried not to blink under his intimidating gaze. By any chance, did he not have the ability to speak? Finally, he opened his mouth to speak. In a smooth tone, he spoke, "You're staring in my eyes." _______ Handsome looks: Triple Check! Evil family relative: Check! Misunderstandings: Check! Power building: Double Check!

"And why aren't you going to check?" Gwen asked, both her brows rising in question as she pressed her lips together to stop herself from laughing out loud.
Theo glared at her in full force but his eyes quickly shifted to the stairs when he heard a door snap shut with a click. Gwen looked up too and parted her lips open to whisper a quiet little, "Damn."
Theo used all his powers to move his eyes away from the breathtaking creature that was now descending the staircase in his direction. His eyes felt as if they had gotten glued to her, to her face and her glorious figure that was provoking him to take her back into his room and fulfill his desires and needs at once.
The gown she wore had been his mother's. Theo didn't remember how his mother might have looked in it but seeing how it hugged Eva's body from every angle, he wondered if he was drooling or not. His whole focus was on her and he was sure that if he was salivating, he wouldn't notice it until somebody smacked him hard in the head.
The dress was a bewitching midnight blue, stars sprinkled on its bodice as the whole fabric sparkled under the light making her face glow. The gown had a long slit at the bottom as her smooth milky white leg peeked out and Theo was forced to swallow, feeling his throat drier than ever.
Her mesmerizing silver locks came to fall over one shoulder while the rest was flowing freely at the back. If they didn't have to go to Eden, Theo was sure she would have been under him in a minute as soon as he would've seen her.
She finally descended the stairs and raised her enchanting eyes in his direction. Theo's feet moved on their own and he took her trembling hand in his warm one. He saw her part open her lips and release a shaky breath. It took all of his energy and years of control not to push her against the nearest wall and suck the very life out of her gorgeous-looking lips.
"Fuck, you chose a great dress Eva." complimented Gwen, and Eva smiled widely in her direction.
"You look stunning too, Gwen."
Gwen carelessly waved a hand in the air as if to say it was nothing, but anybody could see that she was happy that Eva had said that to her. Still, Theo didn't bother to remove his eyes from the girl in front of him.
"I will be going first then," Gwen spoke, emphasizing her every word and staring intently in Theodore's direction but he still didn't turn around. Eva glanced at Gwen and pleaded using her eyes and the hesitant smile that displayed that she didn't want to be left alone in a room with just him.
"Go, we'll meet you there," Theo ordered and Gwen looked from Eva to Theo, hesitant on whose instructions to follow.
"Is there something you forgot Gwen?"
The blond-haired woman sighed, shaking her head and looking apologetically in Eva's direction. Eva's eyes widened as she saw Gwen turn around and in the blink of an eye, she had teleported out of the room, leaving the pair behind.
Gulping and unsure of what to do, Eva tried taking her hand back but he didn't let go of his hold. Instead, he pulled her towards him and Eva ended up getting her face crushed into his hard, muscular, and extremely warm chest. She wondered what scent he used on himself-
No! She wouldn't let her mind think such thoughts! Not right now at least. Not when he was standing so close to her and all she wanted was to feel his lips against hers once again.
"Why did you pick this dress?" Theo asked and she looked up into his mesmerizing eyes, feeling herself getting lost.
"Huh? U-Uh I just liked the color I think." she sprouted out and licked her dry lips which proved to be a wrong move as she felt his hand move down from her waist.
She released an unsteady breath as she felt his warm touch glide down from her hips to her thigh which was bare to him because of the slit in the dress that showcased her legs beautifully. All the emotions she was trying to keep at bay were threatening to tumble out and she gasped as his fingers grazed her skin.
"Hmm? Is that the only reason?" he asked again and Eva stared at his lips that were only inches away from hers now. If only she leaned a little further in-
No no, her mind shouted and for once Eva managed to listen to it. Why should she submit to him so easily? If he gave her a hard time, then she would give him a harder time.
Sliding her now surprisingly steady hand down his chest, Eva watched with satisfaction that his eyes darkened and he pulled her in closer to his warmth. So close that her bosom was now bumping against his rock-hard chest.
"I think that's the only reason there is," she whispered and watched as he leaned in and his nose grazed past her cheek and his lips met in contact with her earlobe.
Teeth. Tongue. He licked her earlobe and skimmed his teeth past it making a sigh escape her lips as she clutched his black shirt more tightly in her hands. She wasn't succeeding, he was just too good at this.
But she was Eva. She couldn't back out of the game just when it was getting exciting.
Leaning her head in, she touched her pouty lips against his neck, and even though she was inexperienced and had never done that move in her whole life, Eva was sure she felt him tremble under her hands.
"Fuck..." she heard him mutter the curse and slide his hand up her thigh to her behind. Eva licked his neck the same way he had done to her earlobe but they both stopped their movements when something hard poked against her legs.
Eva looked down with wide eyes and gazed curiously at the bulge in his trousers.
Had- Had she done that!?
