{Queen's Kiss}
He knows she'll be the death of him.
But her dazzlingly cold smile is too tempting to resist.
She toys with him, playing his heart right into her trap.
Her flawless skin and ebony hair could make her Snow White. Except for her pink lips, but she's still the fairest in the land.
The idiot thinks he can win her heart. As if.
Those coffee brown eyes are so inviting, and he can't help but be entranced by them.
Her eyes are anything but inviting, she knows. But he still loves them.
She balances him, he thinks. Cold for warm, ice for flame, jokes for... Whatever it was called.
He notices her lack of wings.
He offers to build her some.
How dare he insult her like that!
His heart leaps when she allows herself a smile at his offer.
"Thank you so much!" She says, sweetly. He frowns. This isn't like her.
She kisses him. Right as he is about to speak she cuts him off, diving forward to kiss him.
He feels her drive the blade into his back, and he knows. He gasps and pulls back, and she's twisting the knife.
He stumbles back, but she is still supporting him for some reason.
He bursts into flame. She shrieks at the searing pain, dropping him. She can sense his life force dimming. Even when his soul is extinguished, his body burns.
Kicking the carcass away in disgust, she begins walking away.
His last seconds of life are spent watching her face crumple in rage and fear when his fire brings the place down.
But then he's dead, and it doesn't matter that he's killed her.
Even when she visits him in Elysium.
She hates him now. She spent the rest of the Giant War just trying to regenerate. Only to be sentenced to imprisonment when she finally did, in the end.
He always knew she'd be the death of him.
Just another twisted one-sided romance. R&R!
