- My jaw clenches and I shake my head slowly, eyes burning into his. I don’t even know where my knife is and I want to plunge it between his eyes so desperately. “I will not beg you for a damn thing. You disgust me. Do what you must, but you will not hear me beg or plead.” The words leave me -

- try to get him off me. Even as I try to fight, his words are clear and a lick of fear slithers down my spine. But I refuse to do as he says. That is not how I was raised. I’m not a quitter; I don’t back down. I came here knowing I could lose my life and if it was this moment, then so be it. -

- details. But I did it. I made it. And now he was about to take his last breath. Frustration rises as he laughs, saying my name slowly like he’s tasting it. His voice is deep and annoying and it makes me press the knife in a little deeper. But it only happens for a second before I'm suddenly -

His eyes glaze over and it confuses me for a moment. What just happened? What was he trying to do? Was he mind-reading or calling someone mentally? Was he using some kind of power? I don’t know what kind of powers he has. Yes, I know it was stupid to come here and do this without knowing the full -

- devious grin grows across my lips and my head tilts as I watch blood drip across the blade. “I want you to remember; Oraya. Say it with me, Acheron.” My gaze meets his and a weird sort of feeling washes over me that I quickly shake off, leaning forward to hover and bring my face closer to his. -

- pillow, allowing the knife to sink a little deeper. The last sentence makes my teeth grind, anger simmering beneath the surface of my skin. “How dare you,” I seethe, readjusting my grip on the hilt and getting ready to slit his throat. “You don’t deserve to know their names. But mine?” A -

- the urge, shaking my head slowly. I refuse to take my eyes off him, even as I press my knees harder against his arms. He’s letting me do this on purpose. I’m no match for him. Perhaps he thinks this is just a game. And that only pisses me off further. The demon king’s head tilts against the -

A heavy accusation like he doesn’t know what I’m talking about. My eyes narrow to slits as I glare, pressing the knife harder. Blood begins to flow now, albeit slowly, and it’s not enough to satisfy my craving to see him bleeding out in front of me. His words make me want to scoff but I swallow -

- wondering how the hell a little human got past his guards and defenses. His eyes aren’t even open to see the grin widening on my lips. “Murderer,” I whisper venomously, pressing the tip of the blade against his throat and forcing blood to well to the surface. “Look at me. I want my face burned -

- waist with my knife at his throat so he knows not to say a damn word. My knees settle on top of his arms so he can’t move them, but I know he can overpower me in an instant. He’s no longer sleeping, I can feel the change in his breathing. He knows I’m not one of his subjects and he’s likely -

- doesn’t mind being disturbed too much, I think to myself as I pull the knife from its holster and tiptoe to the doors. Slipping inside is rather easy. It’s the figure in the bed, whose chest is gently rising and falling, that makes me nervous. This is it. This is my chance. I get to avenge -

- any signs that someone is awake this late. I’m assuming the king is asleep at this time; he’s not in the ballroom nor his office. I heard chatter from him saying he was to not be disturbed tonight. A wicked grin settles on my lips as those large doors finally come into view. I hope the king -

Thin spaghetti straps, thick material over parts of the chest area, then lace throughout. I look like a -

Blood coats my hands, hot and sticky. I’m disgusted, frankly. Such a beautiful dress and it’s now ruined. Letting out a huff, I glance down at the splatters of blood on the black lace that seem to shine in this lighting. Some even made it to my legs. My lips curl before I bend to drag the blade of -
