What just happened? Only a taste of her lips and he could feel his demon wanting to come out. He only felt like that when he was really angry, then his demon would come out to punish whoever enraged him. As time went he had learned to control his anger and keep the demon in check. It has been a long time since his demon wanted to come out so why now?
Take her! She is yours. She belongs to you. The voice inside his head commanded.
"Is something wrong?" Hazel asked confused as she walked closer to him.
"Don't come close!" he almost yelled wrapping his arms around his body. He could see hurt in her eyes but he didn't want to hurt her like the time he set his brother on fire. Every time his demon wanted out he did bad things.
Hazel turned around and started to walk away. She was probably angry which he could understand but how could he explain when he himself could not understand. He couldn't even go after her, he needed to calm down his demon first.
******************
Tears filled my eyes as I walked away. It was my first kiss and he was acting as if it was disgusting. If he didn't like it he could at least hide it. He didn't have to be so rude. I didn't know where I was going but I didn't care. As I walked further into the woods it became darker and darker, feeling scared I turned around to walk back but couldn't find the way. God, I was lost and it was dark. I yelled Lucian's name several times but got no answer.
Always being a sheltered child and never being alone I was petrified and started to panic. Running around in the woods I tried to find my way back without any success. Tired I sat next to a tree. Where was Lucian now when I needed him?
"Hazel!" I turned my head to the side. Lucian was walking toward me "I was looking for you."
"Really? I thought you would be happy if I got lost and you wouldn't have to see me again" I snapped resentfully.
As if he didn't hear me "let's go home" he said.
Standing up "What if I don't want to?" I know I was being childish but I was angry and just wanted an apology or an explanation.
He shot me a hard glare "You better listen to me or you won't like what I will do to you," he muttered under his breath. He was trembling as he spoke. Was he that angry?
"Fine, you better explain to me once we are home."
When we arrived at our chamber?I crossed my arms over my chest. "So explain!" I demanded.
"Explain what?"
"Why you are behaving rudely and threatening me by saying that I won't like what you will do to me. What will you do?" I asked in a challenging tone.
Surely he wouldn't beat me, kill me or burn. So what would he do? starve me? Lock me in somewhere?
He looked at me and I saw a glint in his eyes.
