Unforgivable
Preface
The full moon shone down into the room of a pale, dark-haired woman. A slight, but clearly evident smile graced her face. It was a smile that was full of sorrow and regret…
"It was all a lie, wasn't it?" she murmured, as if trying not to believe her own words. The man behind her showed no visible emotions to her words, although his clench on the kunai around her neck tightened ever so slightly. His dark ruby eyes were silent, not even showing a flicker of understanding or feelings.
The silver-eyed captive didn't seem to be surprised by his lack of response; she just kept that sad, sorrowful smile on her moonlit face.
"But it's sad," she whispered quietly, "I can't bring myself to hate you…even if you do kill me…" Her voice was thick with longing and remorse. She sighed, not even wincing when a trickle of blood dripped down her neck. A dreamy look came across her thoughtful eyes as she averted them to the shining light of the full moon.
"I loved you…" her light pink lips trembled as she said those words, "..once…" The dark-haired man behind her now showed a sliver of emotion to her words…shock…at her brave demeanor and quiet words. That only lasted but a second before his face reverted back to the emotionless mask it was so used to. Her words had some unknown effect on him, it was undeniable now…The kunai around her slender neck trembled a bit, shaking her crimson blood off his blade and onto her skin.
They stood there, the assassin and his prey, each daring one another to make a move. Pain and uttermost frustration was flashing through the man's dark red eyes while sorrow and regret shone through the lavender eyes of the girl ever so clearly. They both realized their innermost wish now, in that moonlit room…they wished that they had never met, never fallen in love…so killing…wouldn't be so hard...
