I know I said there wasn't going to be more, but I lied. XD

I was feeling in the need for fluff again.

Twists and Turns

As I watch you on the dance floor through this vessel's eyes, I remember the first time we met.

I had just finished sacking your village, and was basking in the glow of victory and the torch's light as it glittered against the piles of riches I'd acquired.

You were one of six women I'd captured. You were the only one who wasn't shaking or screaming.

It wasn't because you weren't scared. Oh no, your eyes spoke volumes of how terrified you were. But they also blazed with defiance.

That's why you stood out to me. It was your spirit that caught my eye, not your beauty or your mind… Although I came to appreciate them over time.

I chose you because you looked me in the eye and didn't stutter when you spoke.

Besides, I'd always had a thing for green eyes.

And then I watched you dance, and I knew I would never be able to let you go.

The outfits you wore were subtle and refined. You had self-respect. You didn't drown yourself in jewelry, instead letting your limbs remain light as you twisted and twirled to the sound of the drums.

The way you would have me reaching for you, only to find you'd moved away in a flash kept me interested, kept me trying to be faster.

I would watch you dance the way a predator watches its prey. And all the while I looked for an opening, an opportunity to pounce… But I never did.

I was careful with you. I knew if I was too rough you would break, and I would never be able to replace you.

You were the only toy I came to respect.

So the night I caught you as you swayed in front of me, you didn't resist as I pulled you into my lap.

I had earned the right to touch you, even though I had always possessed the power to do so.

That was the night I first learned your name. It was the night you first spoke mine.

It was the night I realized that I was not the hunter, but the hunted.

And you had caught me so easily in your flawless trap.

And I couldn't seem to be bothered by it.

Thoughts?

And again, this is Thief King Bakura and my OC.
