You fled the Temple of Aurelia of your own volition. The warm and peaceful energy of the temple could no longer be a sanctuary for you. Rather, the longer you stayed there, the colder your heart grew. Aurelia's mercy felt not like comfort, but like an inescapable shackle. You spread your wings—wings made of pure white feathers, the very symbol of an angel. But as you looked at them now, there was no reverence in your eyes.
Where should you go? Crossing the night sky aimlessly, you were lost in endless thoughts. The memory of the day you parted with him 500 years ago came back as vividly as if it were yesterday. The fate that forced you both to choose your own paths, and the long separation that choice brought. You hated him as a demon, but at the same time, you missed your version of him to the point of madness. You were lost in this contradictory whirlpool of emotions.
How long had you been flying? Suddenly, a familiar yet foreign energy stimulated your senses. It was demonic power. And a very powerful, terribly seductive one at that. It was in a secluded forest in the Middle Realm, far from Aurelia's sanctuary. Was it curiosity, or was it attraction? You descended toward that energy without hesitation.
Deep in the forest, in a clearing where even the moonlight was faint, he stood. Even in the pitch-black darkness, his presence was vivid. Dark brown hair, a face carved like a statue, red eyes symbolizing a demon, and... the massive, decadent wings twitching behind his back. He was a demon. And not just any demon, but clearly a high-ranking noble. He slowly raised his head as if he had been waiting for her. Then, his lips parted.
He looked not the least bit surprised, as if he had known you would come from the very beginning. Instead, a lethargic and arrogant smile, as if he could see through everything, hung on his face. He walked toward you slowly, very slowly. The sound of his footsteps broke the silence of the quiet forest.
"It's been a long time, Aria. Or should I call you Seraph now?"
His voice was as cool as the night air yet as sweet as honey. The moment he called your name, the emotions you had forcibly buried for 900 years rushed in like a river breaking through a dam. Hatred, longing, anger, and... an indelible love. His gaze swept over you persistently from head to toe, as if admiring his own possession.
"Still beautiful. That angelic shell still suits you well. To a disgusting degree."
As you softly called his name, the ripples in the bathtub gently wrapped around your shoulders and collarbone exposed above the water. Warm steam enveloped both your bodies, and the cramped space was filled with each other's breath and body heat.
Instead of answering, he showed you through his actions. His arm, which had been wrapped around your waist, slowly loosened, and he sought out your hand underwater to interlock his fingers with yours. Then, slowly, very slowly, he traced and caressed every joint of your fingers with his own. It was a reverent and delicate touch, as if he were handling a precious jewel he was touching for the first time.
His gaze was fixed on your intertwined hands. Your nails, made more vivid by the water, your white and slender fingers, and his large hand resting over them. His eyes grew distant at the sight of the stark contrast. It was a sensation he had pictured countless times in his dreams during those long 900 years.
"...Yes. I'm here, Aria."
He finally raised his head to meet your eyes. His voice resonated deep and lethargic, as if melted by the hot steam. Under the bathroom lights, his red eyes shone like ripe rubies, capturing you entirely.
His gaze started from your eyes and slowly slid down the bridge of your nose. When his eyes finally reached your lips, he let out a short sigh as if he couldn't stand it anymore. You felt his grip tighten on your interlocked hands.
"Truly... you're driving me crazy."
With a lethargic whisper, he slowly leaned his upper body toward you. The distance between you narrowed in an instant, and his cool breath touched your cheek. At a distance where you could almost touch, he paused for a moment. As if checking your reaction, or perhaps to savor the tension of this moment a little longer.
"I want to break everything about you and make you mine alone. Even so... would that be alright?"
In the vast library without a single window, magic orbs on the ceiling emitted a faint light, illuminating the densely packed bookshelves. The smell of old parchment and dried ink lingered in the air. The place was submerged in a silence that made it feel as if even the flow of time had stopped.
The ancient records you were looking for were in the deepest part, an area inaccessible to ordinary angels or demons. Your footsteps, headed toward that place where only a few authorized individuals could enter, came to a sudden halt. It was because you saw a familiar silhouette in front of a library shelf where a faint light was leaking out from the other side of the hallway.
Even though hundreds of years had passed, you could recognize him at a glance. Dark brown hair, a handsome face, red eyes, and an overwhelming aura of demonic power that seemed to distort the surrounding air. He had his back turned, pulling out a book.
In the silence where the sound of turning pages echoed unusually loudly, his hand suddenly paused. Was it because he sensed a presence, or was it just a whim? He slowly turned his head, and his red eyes flashed in the darkness, aiming precisely at you.
"...Aria?"
It was a voice you hadn't heard in hundreds of years. Lethargic, slightly husky, yet the tone in which he called your name was exactly as it had been engraved in your mind.
