C8 Closer Honey

Demonise POV:

“ Come here… “ He demanded. We’ve arrived at our house two minutes ago and now, I’m facing a huge burden. “ Do you here me Demonise? You know I hate repeating myself. “ He continued while remaining his bossy posture.

“ I don’t want to! You'll beat me again. “ I said trying to hide my weak side but I failed. He’s seriously gazing at me. He’s now sitting on my bed while I’m still standing near the door.

“ I won’t… “ He stared at me and licked his lower lip. “ I won’t if you’ll follow my orders. “ Hearing him saying these statements made me bit my lip. I’m trembling and I know that he could sensed it.

“ You’ll punish me again! I hate it when you let me feel that I’m worthless. “ I stated. Trying to hide the pain and my anger. For the first time in my life, I took a chance to say what my mind wants to say to him.

“ I don’t want to repeat myself again Demonise. Come closer! “ I could barely hear his hard tone. I didn’t blink for a second and was trying to overcome my fear. I took a step forward.

“ Closer honey… “ He said. His face was blank again with his eyes, pure dark. “ Three more steps… “ He said that’s almost a whisper. I’m doubting if I should follow him but in the end, I stepped forward near him.

“ You will not slap me? “ I asked as I was taking my second step to get near him. His aura suddenly changes, from a wild boar to a sweet rabbit.

“ I won’t. Two more steps honey… “ I stared at him and found out that there’s something in his dimmed eyes. Something that’s hidden and well preserved.

“ You will not do something unnecessary? “ I just wanna make sure that his totally harmless. When in fact, from the very beginning he’s the total opposite.

He shook his head and giggled. It’s the first time that I heard this satisfying sound of him. “ I’m planning to. But now, I’m not gonna do it. “ He gently said as he raised his hands to me, as if he’s asking me to take it.

“ One more step… “ He wisped as his tantalizing eyes was focused on me. One more step! One more step before the dungeon will burn me alive. I took a step and closed my eyes to ready myself if ever he’ll beat me.

“ Open your eyes honey… “ After hearing his gentle voice, I decided to open my eyes and was surprised to what I saw in his hands.

“ A-are you sick Fergus? “ I asked. My thoughts were confused at the moment. And my brain was messy with too much questions. “ Is this for real? “ I felt my heart skipped a beat.

“ Tsk! Does giving you a wedding ring means that I’m not in my normal state? “ He said full of sarcasm. I didn’t think about his pitch, all that’s in my mind right now was this diamond ring in front of me.

“ T-thank you! “ I said full of happiness. The joy that I’m feeling right now can’t be compared to anything and anyone.

For a couple like us that was just being arranged, he didn’t took some effort to make up for me before. Not until now that he finally gave me a wedding ring. I waited for three years to make this happen.
