Light and darkness

Evie's mouth parted as her gaze were fixed on the man. Her pulse was suddenly hammering away so erratically within her chest, and her blood seemed to be rushing within her veins and she could feel her heart now aching harder than ever, since the moment she began seeing this future.

Denial hit her not only when she saw those flaming blue eyes but also in the instant when she felt that very familiar aura of darkness – so familiar that she could even identify it in her sleep. Evie could only shake her head as she kept her gaze on him while internally, she was trying to convince herself that her eyes might be deceiving her.

His face was hidden in his own darkness. The tempest of black smoke which was moving like dark snakes all around him was so incredibly strong. If 'she' was the goddess of light, then he would be the god of darkness.
