My hands clenched tightly to the hem of my dress, palms filled with sweat and heart racing as my feet subconsciously took a step back from the man before me. Before I knew it, my back hit the rough, hard wall.
Realizing that I had nowhere to run, I voiced my fear, my voice trembling, “Who—who are you? What do you want from me?”
“Me?” He paused, then continued.
“Lucifer,” his voice echoed through the dark woods, a smirk forming on his lips. I gulped, aware of the mess I had gotten myself into. How dare I have slept with my kind's mortal enemy?
A storm of emotions flooded through me: fear and hatred all at once. I could visibly see life flashing before me before I passed out.
