"It's like ecstasy β I feel myself getting addicted to that feeling the longer I stay here." He clarifies with an affirmative nod, remaining almost statuesque in the way he stands in front of her. Though, his smile only comes to widen; Pearly whites, awfully human found between plush lips where one might have expected rows of sharp needles. But he was not that type of monster. No. It was dull. Boring. At the mention of his own sounds, a brow is quirked & it almost seems so awfully intriguing to give into those words. "Is that so?" He speaks, voice a soft, velvety barritone. "I don't know for I've never whimpered . . . But if it would bring you close to ecstaticβ" Trailing off, yet his inky irises never leave the depths of her own gaze.
And there it was. The stakes. The game . . . It was on.
And The Devil was smiling.
Not an empty warning but fully-fledged, finally reaching his gaze in something twisted & dark, seemingly enticed by the sheer thought of having her in tears in front of him.
As soon as her words were uttered, he left their surroundings to change within the blink of an eye; A spacious room, draped in sheets of silken red & black. A vast nothingness that could be transformed into anything to aid his games. His playground. And amidst it all; A single chair and a small, circular table in front of it.
Without a moment's time wasted would he set his leather briefcase down, clicking it open as he pushed against the gilded fasteners. His back was turned to her, for now. "Why don't you sit, darling?" Daehwan's voice was but a dark purr, inviting one like the gentlest fabric draped around one's body. Though, quickly cut off β Not even waiting a moment for her to respond as he closed their distance with two quick strides.
A large hand quickly entangled itself within brunette locks, grabbing hold of a fistful of the softest tresses and yanking backwards; It wasn't gentle, no, it was to make her understand her position. To understand this game. His charcoal irises focused, stared and ate her up all at once as he watched her from above, awaiting features to twist in confusion? Pain? It would be delicious all the same. His, now freed, other hand would find itself grabbing onto her chin β Thumb and pointer finger pushing into plush skin, holding her in place and leaving her no other option than to look at him. His irises flickered to her own, then to her lips, her skin . . . "Do you not listen to orders?" Tilting his head amidst his query, brows knitted in mock pity as he tuts at her as if reprimanding. He was mocking her, enjoying every moment he controlled her movements β A twisted desire growing, leaving his skin aflame once he touched the prettiest lamb that had come so eagerly to be devoured.
"Or do you need some motivation? Is that it, you poor thing?" The tone of his voice grew in intensity, spoken in heated murmurs whilst leaving his features to represent absolute pity. His hand, previously grasping her chin, would release soft skin before coming down upon her left cheek with a gentle smack. It wasn't hard, at all. Wouldn't leave a mark, either. Though, his smile returned, and it reached all of his features, as he looked upon her in a need that could only be sated by her pretty, pretty tears. "Next one will be worse. Sit." It was a warning. Preparation. Gentle, after all, wasn't something he found any enjoyment in. No, this was nothing. But he would give her everything. He wanted to see her gorgeous face twisted; tears running and mascara smeared . . . It would be a moment worthy of keeping forever.
