Pacing my footsteps through the woods, ashes of leaves with brittle twigs cracking on the ground, echoing through the naked trees. My breath heavy with peril, I stop and listen, it is silent. I am in my own solitude, a simplistic hell, where the nightmares are the reality and the beast is more than just a friend, but a dark lover of past youthful dreams, and he is vividly beautiful. Luring me in deeper into the forest, where the trees were scorched and hovered with their twisted curling branches, arching and encasing the dark, with only a shadow to see. He holds his hand out, so gracefully, with lust tainted on his fingertips. I am hesitant from a far.
âWait! Donât leave meâ
   I take a step forward and the rustle of the ground starts to fade away. He has moved only deeper and I follow, I cannot help but to follow him. The yearning to see him once more, to catch a glimpse of what temptation has to offer. Â
âFind meâ
I hear his voice bounce off, a playful tone because to him it was a game.
   His seductive voice finally fades and I stood there, mixed emotions racing through my blood and bones.
 Â
 âI know what you are thinkingâ I can feel his smile linger through those words âIf you turn around now and head back, you will never know…donât you want to know? Donât you want to feel?â
  Â
I become disconnected with my body, my feet take their own steps and I felt his presence grow stronger. I hold my arms out in hopes he will guide me.
 Â
 âWhere are you going?â He questioned as I followed the shadow.
   âWhy are you doing this to me?â I asked
   âDoing what?â
   âAll of this. Why are you hurting me, tempting me, seducing meâ
  Â
A laughed erupted and then his footsteps picked up again, and I ran after. Silly me, a girl running after someone so forbidden, I just wanted to see him, touch his skin and feel the rush of euphoric impulse
 Â
 âAnd yet you still follow aimlessly girl! You follow only because you are scaredâ
I froze, the air grew cold, sending shrivers through my spine. He continued speaking,
âYou think you have nothing left, so in desperation you follow what cannot be touched but only wanted, and forever you shall want, you will have eternal desire with no satisfaction, that is your hellâ
  Â
He stands a couple feet away, just out of arms reach, and I stare into his face. He is so beautiful, it is almost unrealistic. The grey eyes contrasting with the trees, burning with anticipation, and yet he was ever so smooth, the way he stood, like a tree itself. Swaying lightly, yet maintaining the strong pose rooted into the ashes.
   Sending chills with the wind making the hairs on my arms stand, I stared at him and moved forward. He held his hands out and smiled
 Â
 âCome to me my loveâ
   âI amâ I stumbled âI am tryingâ
   âCome closer, Donât worry I wonât run awayâ
   âItâs a trickâ I hesitated âYou always play these mind games, I know youâ
   âDonât you trust me?â he frowned.
I stopped, his body leaned closer, I was only feet away from him, I could smell his cologne, it flared up my nostrils with the aroma.
   âTurn aroundâ he calmly told me.
I trust him at my most vulnerable spot, I trust him with my back turned to the devil himself.
      âClose your eyes nowâ I felt my eyes close shut, and now I saw nothing, I listened to the crunch of footsteps now shuffling behind me.
   Placing his fingers firmly on my shoulders as my back faced him, I could feel his breath in my ear, slowly making its way down my neck. His hands traced my arms and rested on my hips as he pulled me in closer to him.
   âPlay with meâ he moved his hands âCome on Babeâ he nudged me in closer.
I felt his softened lips press against my neck, each letting a small breath to escape from my mouth. Leaving marks that burned and I loved it.
As his lips pressed more fiercely, his hands rushed through my body, leaving every spot untouched. And I could feel all of him as he pressed me against his body. I wanted to turn around, I wanted to feel that burn on my lips, the impulse of the sultry hands.
I wanted him.
