Sensually, his fingers gently traced the line of my chin, trailing up to my flushed cheek. His blues were so full of pain and unquenchable warmth that I closed my eyes, fighting back the tears that threatened. When he spoke, his voice was tender, almost a murmur, There are things in this world that most people never see and, he paused, They're lucky. If they only knew the darkness that lurks amidst the shadows, it would be so terrifying that most would go insane. Gently, his thumb grazed my lips. I only want to protect you. Will you at least grant me this one wish, please?
