Dangerous Sweet Feeling

There was darkness in a certain cave and the oil lamps that hung on the wall could barely be seen as they were not lit.

A slender hand reached for the lamp and then, a feminine voice was heard.

"Lumiere." As soon as she uttered this word, the oil lamp lit up brightening the dark place. She held the lamp up high as she walked further.

She wore a hooded cloak and half of her face was covered with a black half-face net respirator. Her cloak swept the ground as she walked deeper into the dark cave.

Finally, she got to a stop and there came a voice.

"I see you're back." A man with complete white hair was seated on a throne made of stone in a lazy manner. His legs were placed on a stool and his right elbow was placed on the armrest with his palm supporting his head which tilted lazily to the right. His face was unseen because the light was not luminous enough to get to his side. But the aura he exuded was dangerous.

The girl removed her hood revealing her long red silk hair which dropped at her back. Her eyes were plan red but her half net face cover was still on, covering her nose and mouth. She reached for the hook of the cover and unlocked it. As her black net half face cover fell, her face came to sight.

It was Titan or could it just be a look alike?

"Razel." She bowed. Asides from the red hair and eye, she looked exactly like Titan.

Razel snapped his fingers and all the lamps turned on, illuminating the dull room.

Now that the lights were on, the man's face became visible. His long white hair covered half of his fair face and with his right hand on which his head rested, was adorned varieties of rings. He wore a long black medieval cloak that swept the floor; the color of the cloak, totally contrasting his white hair and light skin making him exhume an evil aura.

He dropped his legs from the stool and stood up, revealing half of his beautiful face. All his features seemed to be carved properly and carefully. His blue eyes gave off an innocent yet satanic look but his white hair covered the other half of his face.

As he began to descend the stairs, he walked with extreme transcendency and grandeur portraying a majestic image. He moved closer to the girl with red her who stared directly into his eye seemingly unfazed by his dangerous aura.

"Tiana." As he said her name, the wind blew, causing the portion of the hair that covered the rest of his face to move in the direction of the wind. As his hair moved, the hidden part of his face came to sight revealing a skeleton like feature with a red eye as bright as the fire from hell. Only bones could be seen on that portion of his face, not even a single flesh was glued to it. This look completely contrasted the other part of his face. Almost immediately, the wind became still and his hair fell back.

Tiana smiled "My love." As she said this, she leaned in and gave him a kiss. The man didn't resist it. Instead he pulled her even closer.

"I missed you." Tiana spoke in a low voice. The man looked at her beautiful face and raised his brow.

"If you did, you would have come back sooner." his grip tightened on her shoulders and soon, his blue eyes darkened and his hands turned hot and burned her cloak.

"Ouch! Razel! You're hurting me." Tiana shrincked as her shoulders were on fire.

He stared at her murderously then walked backwards releasing her from his clutches.

"We are running out of time. If you want me to be any kinder, find those two. I will not condone any form of laziness!" He boomed surprising Tiana to the core. He had never been this impatient and although he had anger issues, he never hurt her.

After a few seconds, he turned around and walked back to his throne but stopped halfway and said,

"If you can't handle this mission, I'll gladly send someone else... Maybe someone like Nirvana! He said as though he wanted to infuriate her."

As espected, at the sound of that, Tiana who was still lamenting over her burnt shoulder, immediately straightened up and complained.

"Nirvana? Razel, just when have I ever failed a mission? Why would you rather prefer Nirvana? Fine! It's my fault. I'll complete this mission soon enough... Whatever it takes. I will..."

She was still talking when the man intercepted "Five days, Tiana, five days. That's all the time you get. If by the fifth day, you fail to come up with something important, I'll have your head on a plate."

'What! Five days? Is he crazy or what? Even he wouldn't be able to find two people in just five days. This is a big world you know? And they could be practically anywhere.' She was surprised.

"Fine! I'll do my best." She had a frown on her face as she turned around to leave.

The wind behind her came like a flash as the sinisterly breathtaking Razel stood in front of her.

"And where do you think you're going?" His dangerous look from before had suddenly disappeared and now, he looked like a flirtatious puppy king.

Tiana replied him as a matter of fact. "Have you forgotten? I only have five days before my head gets placed on a plata? The earlier the better. I still have to..."

Razel interrupted her as he leaned closer and murmured close to her ears.

"Come on Tiana, five days is more than enough for you. I trust your capabilities besides, didn't you say you miss me? Then why do you have to leave so soon?"

Tiana was having mixed feelings. She was initially angry that the one she loved would be willing to have her head on a plata. But now, now how could she deny that she didn't want him too?

"Razel I..." Before she could continue, he sealed her lips with he's. He wasn't slow at all. His kisses were passionate and hungry. It felt like he was trying to settle a score with her lips but his every move, made her want him more. It was a dangerous sweet feeling.

Titan laid on her bed with her eyes shut. Her face revealed expressions that showed that she was having a dream. She saw herself with a scary man. Although some of her features had changed, she could still tell that she was the one in the dream. And that man, the one she claimed to love, was extremely brutal in all ways. She saw herself having a passionate time with the strange man and just then, she felt like something bit her at the area beneath her earlobe causing her to abruptly wake up.

When she woke up, her body was shivering and her eyes had turned completely red. The base of her hair had also turned red and it seemed to be spreading. Her entire appearance indeed, looked devilish.

Apparently, she was not fully awake. And some of the features she had in her dream followed her back to reality.

Her red eyes were beginning to return to normal when she sensed someone in the room causing the light in her eyes to glow brighter again. She turned and looked at her window then stared at the person who sat there. It was master A, her guardian. She was facing the sky outside.

"You know you should be careful with your door." Master A didn't realize that this Titan was not herself right now because she was concentrating on the view outside and didn't take note of Titan's features.

Titan quietly walked out of her bed and looked like someone who was taming her prey. She walked slowly without making a sound to where master A stood and in no time, the sound of bones cracking was heard.
