“When you spend so long trapped in darkness, Lucien, you find that the darkness begins to stare back.”

Sarah J. Maas (A Court of Mist and Fury (A Court of Thorns and Roses, #2))

I stare at her reflection in the mirror, covered in my enemy’s blood. The corner of her lips rises in a sinful smirk that has my balls tightening in my pants, and my cock rock hard instantly. She looks like a dream, a sinful, dark dream with an avenging angel sent down from heaven to wreak havoc on mankind. Fuck, she doesn’t even look real.

My mind should be telling me to turn and run; self-preservation should be kicking in right the fuck now. I should be terrified at the look on her face, which promises nothing but dark deeds, and signifies that she has finally cracked, and splintered all her restraint and control. I’ve never been great at keeping myself out of harm’s way, and fuck knows, I won’t be starting now.

Issy has never looked more insane, beautiful, and sexy than she does at this moment. Her sapphire eyes shine through the red haze she’s covered in, and in their depths, I see the same insatiable madness that lives inside of me. The one that has corrupted everything that was once pure within me and turned it dark, and now is doing the same to her.

I should be worried that I have broken her, that she has finally snapped and is tarnished beyond repair, but instead, all I feel is desire racing through my bloodstream. The desire to chase her and run her to the ground like a beast, force her to take my cock, and hear her scream my name is paramount. It’s a live wire of electricity running through my veins, looking for an outlet. Mine.

My chest presses firmly into her small back, and a shiver races through her limbs, the slickness of her skin and the beating of her heart thunderous against my own. It’s not enough. Being this close to her is not enough, and even if I crawled inside of her, it would never be enough.

I slide my hand forward and grip around her throat, the feeling of her pulse below my fingers a sensation that further increases the blood flow to my already painfully hard cock. Thud, thud, thud, what beautiful fucking music it makes. The sound of her finally alive. My Issy, my whore, my whole world, mine.

I release my grip, even though my desire is to tighten my fingers further, and feel her breath stall inside of her chest. I need more of her. I need everything she has, everything she will ever be, to be mine, only mine. I grab her arms and push her away from me, that feeling mounting inside of me until it threatens to tear me apart. My hands clench tightly into fists to prevent me from hoisting her over my shoulder, and taking her somewhere dark and confining, where I can keep her
