"Then I am waiting to be burned." he said with a smirk as his hands reached her dresses.

Her eyes flickered with the burning flames of fire. There was more than hatred in them, the desire of his eyes were reflected in them and so was the desire to burn the man.

He touched her collarbones with a look full of lust and desire when she kept staring at his hypnotizing eyes.

His hands slowly moved on her body as if he was challenging her to stop him. But she did not.

When he touched the zip of her dress, she held his button as if she was ready to match his tempo whatever it was.

He held her neck as if giving her last warning when she pulled him closer and kissed him hard.

Her tongue went straightening into his mouth and started exploring it. He was stunned for a second but when he saw the provoking look in her eyes, a strange excitement filled his heart and he kissed her back with the same intensity.

Their tongues danced and the fire in their heart started to burn.

His hands reached the zip of her dress again, and this time he pulled it with a single clink.

The dress fell from her chest and got entangled on her waist due to her hands.

She moaned hard in his mouth. Her hands started to move on his shirt but she was too sloppy.

Looking at her actions and her failure in opening the button when she was kissing gave him joy he had never thought.

How naive she was, how kind, how passionate. She was just like the one he had ever wanted her to be. But.. she is still not hers.

But he would make sure that she will be by tonight.'

He held her fingers and helped her in taking off his shirt as it fell on the ground.

He let her lips go when her chest started to heave up and down and he stared at her as if asking her if she still wanted to continue.

The moment he let her go, her hands fell from his shirt and the dress that was still hanging on her thin hands fell.

She was standing in her corset staring back into his eyes without a hint of taking a step back.

"Anne.. i do not want to do it with hatred filled in your eyes." he could not believe that he was saying no to having sex with her but when he looked at that eyes, they had passion but a bit of hatred for him as if she was disgusted with his presence.

"Ha! And you want me to look at you with loving eyes.. This is nothing but a challenge for me and you are nothing to me. I do not even hate you, for that.. I have to invest in my feelings towards you.' she said in a mocking voice as she took a step towards him and placed her hands on his hair as if she was trying to pull him but he stopped her.

He held her hands tightly in his grip and stared at her with his jaws ticked.

"Why? Are you taking a step back? Are you afraid of Declan?" she asked with a tilt of her head when he closed his eyes.

He took a deep breath as if he was trying to control his desire to kill and nodded.

"Yes, I am taking a step back. I am afraid of things happening  between us and I am afraid of touching the woman I love if she only had hatred in her eyes for me. So.. forgive me or kill me but do not show this look on your face when you come closer to me." he said in a pained voice as she looked away.

She did not want to feel the pain of the man whom she hated. Who had hurt her and her family enough. She did not want to be this weak but when he was standing this closer to her, her rationality was colluding with her desires and emotion she had for him.

"Then leave me. Why are you still standing there?" she rebuked him when he took a step back.

"I think that you are right. I should leave. I should give you enough time to think about it. But.. do not leave this room. I am covering it with my scent. Eve would never be able to find you here." he asked her in a pained voice when she did not meet his eyes.

He paused for a second as if he was waiting for the magic to happen. But when the reality struck him, he knew that he was waiting for nought.

He took a deep breath and left the room only then did Anne raise her head and looked at the blank space.

He was…. Gone!

"Ha! Why would I wait for you here and need your care." she muttered under her breath.

She opened the door and walked out of the room. She should have returned to the palace but she did not.

She kept walking on the street without even paying attention where she was going?

"Oh, so he left you alone. And here I thought that he was interested in you." she heard the voice behind her and stopped in her tracks.

It was her!

The steps are coming closer slowly but instead of running away Anne kept waiting for her to come closer.

"Why are you coming behind me?" she asked as she bared her fangs to the girl who was chuckling as if it was an amusing joke.

"Because I had never seen that expression on his face. You know." Eve stood in front of her with a tilt of her head as if she was still trying to assess Anne. "We demons did not have much emotions except the desire to kill and hatred but when he looked at you. It is different. I want to know why?"
