Jean Luc gaped into the wardrobe room. Or more specifically, the woman standing within.
She stared into the mirror, which reflected an image of a goddess. A man could only dream of being with her--a different breed. A wicked genius with the face of an angel. She wore an outfit that her sister, Celie, chose. It was insanely beautiful.
Jean Luc matched with her, and so did their children.
"Done staring?" she spoke. As usual, she seemed to feel the weight of his stare.
He looked away, flushing slightly.
"You look delicious" was all she said before brushing past him. Then, she headed towards the door. Something changed between them. Or perhaps, his view of her changed instead.
He continued to like a murderer, but his mind did not attack him for doing so. Instead, they were encouraging him with the most beautiful thoughts of a future with her. It was ridiculous.
Outside was filled with deafening noise, raging for a festival made for him. I
Raven didn't care that she was naked.Jean Luc, on the other hand, did. He had made her slip into his oversized shirt.Lying beneath the wholly darkened sky peppered with sparkling glitter, Raven felt complete and content. One of her hands was entwined with Jean Luc, while the other gestured to the specks of stars, drawing an image of a face.The night was not silent. In the distance, the celebration of gratitude still raged. Raven had no doubt that citizens of Soardina were dancing and drinking, that children were giggling and fooling around, that Lydia and Sartac were enjoying themselves, too.She knew Darrow was taking his blonde girlfriend on a ride around the island, while Margaret was climbing until she reached a place where she could watch the movements of everybody. Dominic would be taking the time to impress people with his skills in computing and Zak would be walking around the city, collecting whatever people offered.Celie and Blake, on the other hand, would most probably
An exasperated sound escaped Raven's lips as she attempted to remove a patch of blood from her skin."What a hassle," she complained bitterly, staring coldly down at the body severed into several portions."That's rich," Celie, her literal partner in crime, replied. She gestured around the dreadfully smelling room of rotten flesh. There was a body in every corner, and dried blood staining the wall."I'm not talking about the killing. I meant how these people are foolish enough to force me to show myself," Raven said with a hint of agitation. " It's almost like they don't know any better."Lowering herself, Raven began to carve two letters. Letters that many in the town of Domsvile recognise and fear. A symbol of the most hunted and sm
Jean Luc felt like it has been forever since he had laid his eyes on his stunning house.Something was odd about it, though. He had felt like his home should be quite filthy since it had been a year, but the outside was so clean.He murmured a thankful message to whoever had cleaned it before opening the door. He locked it instead. A hint of fear pounced at him as he discovered that the entrance to his house was left unlocked.It was mild compared to a mere second later.As he pushed open the door, crimson red words greeted him back. It was written in pretty, but horrific handwriting. The handwriting of a murderer.Jean Luc almost felt his heart pounce out of his chest as he read the message. He let his eye linger on the face below it before looking at what was oncehishouse.Scrambling, he reached for his phone and almost dropped it. The smell, his surroundings and the message caused a type of panic that he had never exp
Jean Luc felt silly. If a stranger with a pretty face could bewitch him so thoroughly, he must have a really simple heart.Living with that woman would be pretty fun.He would think they were friends by now, after days of visiting her to make sure she was fine. A stab wound was undoubtedly painful, and he thought it was only right to be beside the woman who almost died in his house.He had been living in a motel for the time being. He had enough money to afford a brand new home, but as Lucina mentioned, it was best for both of them to live under the same roof. Every time Jean Luc closed his eyes in the motel, he'll wake up to images of bloody bodies.On the day when she could return home to her home, Lucinda's friend had awoken.
"Good Morning," Raven said.The rain outside drowned out her words."Morning.""Would you care for some coffee?""I'd love to," Jean Luc replied as he settled down on a seat around the kitchen table.She set it down before him, and another for herself before her phone rang. An irritated sigh escaped her lips. She had not forgotten about the plan, not for a second, but it was peaceful with Jean Luc for the past few days. She did not have to worry about removing evidence from her victims or carving the two letters she dominated into skin."Hey," Raven said into the phone."Dom," Celi
"Wanna break into the museum for the fun of it?""Sure."Jean Luc stared between them. Utter lunatics."Alright, Jean Luc. You're coming with us."This friend of Lucinda seemed to be pretty nice. Jean Luc could remember Lucinda claiming it would be better for her friends to be left without incident about her near-death incident, but this Celie seemed to be an exception.For her to visit Lucinda with a jacket in fear of her best friend getting sick in the rain showed Jean Luc that Celie was a great friend. Though, he was curious how she knew Lucinda would be laying in the road at the exact moment. She must do it often.He was suddenl
"This is insane," Jean Luc admitted as Lucinda led him into a room he knew he should have paid to enter.She did not let go of the hand firmly wrapped around his even as she came to a stop. The screen was playing. It was about a riot that happened a decade back in Domsville."How much do you know about Domsville's history?" she questioned."I didn't quite listen in history class, honestly."Laughing, Lucinda reached to grab candy from a glass bowl. She had suggested everyone wear gloves to further avoid getting caught. Jean Luc would rather hold her bare hand, though."It's mint," she said, holding one out for him.He took it while
She never agreed to be in the position she was in. Her mind and heart chose differently, and she had to pay the price.Raven could do nothing when under his spell. It was pretty ironic, really. She was the town's most wanted criminal and had probably killed more than anyone could imagine. She lived in a world where guilt did not exist, where she was supposed to live up to the rumour saying, 'the demon, RD, don't have any human feelings.'Instead, her heart was pounding in a way that contradicts all of the rumours, much to her annoyance. She was starting to like the man she was supposed to manipulate. It sounded as stupid as it was.Raven wanted to roll her eyes when her heart started speeding again as Jean Luc smiled at her before leaving to his room.
