    COTY

    Assailant -- Year 226

    QOTY

    "But the dream, the echo, slips from him as quickly as he had found it and as consciousness comes to him (a slap and not the gentle waves of oceanic tides), it dissolves entirely. His muscles relax as the cold claims him again, as the numbness sets in, and when his grey eyes open, there’s nothing but the faint after burn of a dream often trod and never remembered." --Brigade, written by Laura


    as black as your soul; rhae

    Rhae
    He was a different person. This wasn't the same one that had claimed her with his menace, smothered her in fear and uncertainty. Well, the uncertainty stayed. This new Bruise was confusing, conflicting. Frighteningly desirable, saying the things she wanted to hear. Touching her the way she wished to be touched. By him? She...wasn't sure. Yes and no.

    Her face flushed with heat and she shied away from his caresses. Darling. Even a pet name, an affectionate one. She had to be dreaming, but would she really dream of him? Probably. It couldn't be helped. He was attractive, and the danger hiding in his eyes set her blood to racing, her adrenaline rising. Instead of a warning, it was a lure to her. She seemed to challenge the silent threats, dare him to care instead of harm. Please, please care.

    "You should miss me because you love me." Did she? She wanted to, didn't she.. Yes. But she was afraid to. He wouldn't stay by her side truly, would he? He would find someone better, prettier, more desirable, and she would be alone again. So alone. He couldn't really want her, anyway. Just silly Rhae, the girl who was often invisible. A fly on the wall. Who only wanted to be loved. Just once have someone see her and really care, really stay. So unwanted.

    His perfect face slowly fell, morphing into confusion and hurt. Her brows lifted in surprise, but she was instantly concerned. Had she hurt him? She never wanted that. He looked away, came back with eyes closed, and when they opened.. yes, she had hurt him. Oh no, she was terrible. Maybe he really was different now. He didn't possess her again as he had before, only stood in his place, his head lowered and voice soft. "I love you, after all."

    She stopped breathing, doe eyes wide. No no no, it was fake. She was dreaming. It's not real. God, but she wanted it to be. It wasn't impossible to love her.. She could be worse, right? What if this was her only chance with him? What if he turned away from her forever? No, don't leave.

    Bruise, she whispered, ignoring her fears, all the doubts. Have faith. It could be possible. She stepped closer, reaching for him this time. Mine, please be mine. Let this be real. Is it a game, Bruise? She was afraid of the answer, afraid to search his eyes and find something false there. She wanted this. She wanted him. Tentatively, hesitantly, she pressed her face to his strong neck. His scent had once put  her on edge, and it still did, but it also soothed her just a little. Please be with me.

    I... want to love you, she said honestly under her breath. Afraid of him hearing it but still wanting him to. Maybe. He'd held fear over her before, but this was somehow stronger, more terrifying. And it was entirely real. Natural fear. She could barely breathe.

    She wanted this.
