Provoke

I meet her in a wedding dress, walking down the aisle towards my sworn enemy.

Our eyes catch from across the room. And monster that I am, I know I have to have her.

Not just because she is precious to my sworn enemy… but also because her wide blue eyes tell me things.

That she’s afraid of me.

That she’s even more afraid of my enemy.

That she’ll do almost anything to escape him.

I seize on her fear.

I abduct her, while she’s screaming and fighting me.

And that’s when our story begins.
