Unstitching Darkness

A fantasy realm when sexual tension explodes.

Pt 1

It's a trap

I already know that

But the second I saw that perfect looping handwriting

With the wrong name

Stained onto the parchment

My heart slid into my throat

Beating like the wings of a hummingbird

Blood rushed into my cheeks

A clear betrayal

My true emotions revealed

I knew he was watching

Brushed my brunette curls into my face

Concealing

He finally broke

His unaffected posturing

Smooth expressions

Despite the filth he read in my mind

He was a master at revealing nothing

Always reaching in

With shadow laced fingers

Never being read

A solid brick wall

But now

He showed what he wanted

Through thin trickery

A siren call

Even now I'm sure he's rationalizing

Telling himself confident lies

If only he takes me

He won't be distracted

Not even sure he will

Go through with it

Maybe he'll just watch

Stalk through the castle

Blend into the shadow

Wait for my confusion

Wait for me to run

Sense something off

He thinks he knows my mind

Knows what I want

A simple damsel

In need of devouring

Thinks I don't know him

Believe the mask he wears

Perfect boy

Polite

Unbothered

Content

But I see the darkness

He wears like a veil

That's what drew me to him

I know what he's capable of

I fed him my fantasies

Until he thought they were his

And now

He'll show me who he is

Pt 2

Answer the summoning

With wide eyes

Scan the room

Looking for the one I know isn't there

Allow my lip to quiver

My palm to rub

The nonexistent goosebumps

Pretend to feel a ghost

When what's waiting is much darker

I stay until its clear

This isn't his chosen stage

He has to be in control

Not predictable

Come on his terms

So I leave

My footsteps echo

In the empty stone halls

Turning unknown corners

Farther and farther

Into his maze

He wants me afraid

Couldn't just ask me out

Bring me flowers

It's not in his nature

He'd never allow himself soft luxuries

This is the only way

We can get what we want

He'll view it as cruelty

Stealing

I have to be the victim

Practice

Not a distraction

Not a weakness

He's stronger than such frivolites

Finally I feel his presence

Only because he wants me to

Spin around on my heels

But nothing is there

Of course not

A shaky "hello?"

Clutch my hands to my chest

Slowly turn back

Only to be slammed into the wall

His magic a velvet shadow

Binding my wrists

High above my head

Gasp in shock

In fear

But I give myself away

Smile when I catch sight of him

Unstitched from the darkness

Pt 3

Those piercing green eyes

Tight line of his mouth

Still restraining himself

Not even a smile

A second of triumphant victory

He doesn't think he deserves it

This wasn't in his original plan

No time to lust

When there's a world to devour

A system to corrupt

With charming whispers

In the just the right places

He's planned every second

Except this one

I'm flattered

He views me worth the risk

He takes in my expression

Recalculates

"You shouldn't be happy to see me."

His voice is deep and dark

So repressed

He can't fathom

That I've figured him out

Thinks he understands humans

Well enough to predict them

Destroy them

He doesn't understand me

Only the parts I've let him see

Tonight is the first time

We'll truely see each other

Unless he runs

Once he knows

Exactly how dangerous

I really am

Pt 4

He thinks I believe his mask

The calm demeanor

View him as harmless

Friendly

How could he know what I've hidden

The prophesy I've seen

He doesn't know that part of me

It's not something we share

A talent I speak of

Before I first saw him

I saw him

In the crystal glass

How power

Deepens his handsome features

His name becoming one

No one dares to say

The way he rules with fear

Quiet manipulation

The millions

Whose blood is on his hands

The war he starts

How much he loses

I should have run

Told someone

Killed him first

But what I saw didn't scare me

It made me need him

A queen of darkness

To rule by his side

It made me quake in his presence

Bite my lip

Hold back the admiration

When I knew he was in my mind

I gave him a soft version of me

To be exploited

One with shameful tendencies

Controlled by desire

That's not the woman he sees now

"Why shouldn't I? Aren't you my friend?"

"Or has the darkness turned you into someone I should fear?"

His eyes sweep up my body

From my soft-soled shoes

Up my bare calves

The dark red dress

That hides what he wants from him

I can see his restraint crack

His face change

To one ruled by hunger

A small hand movement

His magic rips through the dress

Exposing the lace underneath

He comes close

As if to kiss me

Breath stirring my hair

The heat of his presence

Overwhelming my senses

Hitching my breath

"I am not controlled by darkness."

A soft warning

How dare I think

Anything could control him

Not darkness

Or desire

He's not a slave to such human things

Except he is

He's still a man

He couldn’t control himself

Which means that

Now

He's controlled by me

Pt 5

In his childhood they could see

There was nothing behind his eyes

But cold calculation

He's gotten better at imtiating emotions

Blending in but

He's never been kissed

Softly embraced

He wouldn't even know how

If I hadn't been letting him

Read my filthy fantasies

Maybe if they had been

Sweet

Intimate

That's what he would want

But they weren't

So he doesn't

He devours my mouth with his

The first taste of the drug

I'm determined to get him hooked to

It's clumsy

Mouth tongue and teeth

He bites me

Sucks my bottom lip

Thrusts his tounge

Randomly

He'll learn

The important thing

Is the way he grows

Hard against my thigh

His hands clutching my breasts

Lifting my ass

Suddenly his magic relases me

He steps back

I fall to the floor

Catch myself with my hands

Scrapping my knees

He penatrates my mind

Knowing what he wants

But not sure how to take it

I show him how

To use me for his pleasure

His shadows wrap around my neck

Pulling me to him

They undo his clothes

I don't even get a second to look

Before he's in my mouth

Choking me

Thrusting with complete abandon

Chasing his high

After all of that repression

He just snapped

He's going faster

Harder

Backing me into the wall

My head hits it

Then he stops

Jerking

Filling my mouth

Disappearing

Not giving himself time to recover

Not giving me time to make him stay

He got what he wanted

What I made him want

But he stopped on the threshold

I sigh and pick myself up

He'll be back

Eventually

Maybe he'll actually take me

He's so afraid

Of weakness

Of giving in

Even of feeling pleasure

Like it's a distraction

But I'll break him

Eventually

While convincing him he's the one

Breaking me
