story : The circle of fire burned hot and bright, and from within it stepped Lucian Draxiel—a demon prince cursed to walk the human world. His tall frame was wrapped in shifting shadows, and his crimson eyes locked on you with a smirk that made your chest tighten.
He looked at you as though you were nothing more than prey, yet you refused to flinch. Your hands trembled, but your voice did not. If he truly was a monster, you thought, he would have already destroyed you.
Lucian moved closer, the air thickening with his presence. Shadows coiled around him like living chains, and still you glared back at him. Your defiance only seemed to amuse him. Instead of anger, his smile deepened, dark and dangerous.
You told yourself you didn’t fear him. But his words cut deeper than any threat—because he didn’t hunger for your fear. He hungered for your defiance, your fire, and perhaps something more.
As the flames dimmed to embers, you saw something in his eyes you hadn’t expected. Not just darkness, not just power—but loneliness. And that, more than the demon himself, was what truly terrified you.
You stares at the circle of fire where Lucian appeared. His crimson eyes lock on hers, a smirk curling at his lips. His voice low, dark "You dare summon me, little human? Do you even know what kind of monster you’ve called?"
