"Why do you look so damn beautiful?" A hoarse voice sounded near Sylvia and jolted her awake.
The woman blinked her eyes in confusion. Was this really the devil talking?
She gulped nervously and looked at the man, only to find him gazing at her. His eyes were unusually soft and gentle, full of warmth.
Sylvia trembled and her heart skipped a bit.
She didn't think that even a monster like him could show such an expression.
Amused at the woman's bewildered expression, Mikel feebly lifted his hand, wincing in pain with every small action.
He lifted his hand all the way to her soft cheek and gently caressed it with his fingers.
Her skin felt warm and soft, radiating a pleasant heat that soothed him.
"Have I been too hard on you?" The man mumbled, his eyes not breaking away from the delicate figure in front of him.
Sylvia was originally only slightly surprised at Mikel's unusual actions but now she was completely dumbstruck.
