A darkish EdWin, from Win-chan's perspective this time. I have a few ideas for how to continue with this fic, so if enough people have some interest in it (and tell me they'd like more, lol) I'll keep writing. Hope you enjoy! )
Oh, and name suggestions would be lovely. I'm not really sure what to call this.

She liked shadows, and the mild escape they provided.

It was 11pm – so, of course, everyone else in this stupid hole of a village had turned off their lights and were tucked safely into their beds. But she shouldn't really be annoyed by that – it meant that as she looked out of the bay window in the kitchen, it was nearly pitch black.

Dark was dangerous. Her pulse rose slightly as she thought of what could happen in the cover of the night. Someone could kidnap her, or rape her, or even kill her. Maybe even all three. If she concentrated hard enough the faceless man was really there, right behind her, hands reaching out to cover her mouth so her screams wouldn't disturb anyone.

It was sick, but this environment, with its primitive connection to the rest of the country and simple way of life, was suffocating. Anything to break the monotony. To break the waiting.

And – she was gone, images of him jumping her, miraculously appearing in the shadows to tackle her to the ground and take her right there, in the dark, on the floor, with only the most basic human instincts working overdrive.

Primal. Carnal.

Oh, shit, why couldn't he just be here and do all those wonderful, dark things to her.

If only it all wasn't just a dream she liked to visit in the still of the night, the calm of the shadows. If only he would maybe ever think about her that way. If only he would come back once in a while to stop her going insane.

She couldn't live like this. If there was a next time, she wasn't going to hesitate.
