I'm officially 24! I started writing when I was 13 can you belieeeve, I've come such a long way!
The demon felt a giddiness stir within him, a growing excitement that stoked the fire in his belly. He almost wanted to laugh, grin spreading wide at the thought of her. His paramore was just too cute.
As if he couldn't pinpoint her scent; the act of knocking him away from her person was futile.
The taste of her scent in the air fueled his steps, she was beyond sweet. Her innocence and his darkness created a bittersweet blend, a hauntingly delicate flavor that left a lingering ache on the palate.
She, the body of naivety, exuded an untouched purity that contrasted sharply against his entire being. Her fragile honeyedness would soon be tainted by the inevitable collision of their forbidden attraction.
The sensation of their embrace was fleeting, yet unforgettable, leaving an exquisite want within him. It left him craving more of her intoxicating blend, and the result, her soon becoming his.

I knew there wouldn't be a lot of time to put much distance between us. If there were a better tracker than Natsu in Ishgal, I wouldn't want to meet them. There was a rising sense of dread that pushed me to move after the curse within me calmed.
I was nearly overcome by his darkness, my thoughts still attached to the way it felt as I ran. It felt as though there was a quiet voice begging me to go back, to let him finish what he started. His warmth was unmatched and left me feeling a lonely sort of chill that only stirred my temptation to turn around. I wanted to take advantage of his need to taint me, to be the center of his attention and let myself burn underneath his lips.
My love and desire were manipulated for his gain; there was no telling what might happen when E.N.D has me in his grasp again.
It was especially hard to ignore the memory of his hard-on, though that was enough to keep my thoughts on the right track. We absolutely weren't ready for that step in our relationship, and I didn't want my first time with Natsu to be…well, not with Natsu.
But as much as I wanted to, I couldn't think about that now. E.N.D, Natsu, would be coming for me. I had to try and think of some way to get us out of here.
That bastard said he would be back in three days; I had to try and avoid Natsu for three days.
Which sounded absolutely impossible. I would need food, water, and rest. And surely that mindless demon wouldn't think twice to allow myself those luxuries.
It'd be smart to prepare myself for the worst.

I felt trapped, like my arms and legs were sinking and stuck; I couldn't lift myself up. Inside my mind I could hear the demons depraved thoughts and what he wanted to do with Lucy.
She didn't want me, us. The dark magic trapped within her was a parasite my demon couldn't wait to tap into again. To brainwash her for his harrowing fantasies.
As much as I wanted Lucy intimately, this wasn't the way. I refused to let my body harm her, but regaining control wasn't as easy as I hoped it would be.
The darkness was not only attempting to corrupt her, but subdue the half of my consciousness that wouldn't cooperate.
I struggled to see through my own eyes, feeling my stomach turn as her scent caught under our nose.
Already having returned to the campsite, the demon took in a deep breath, taking in her nectarous aroma. I could feel the satisfied rumble erupt in our chest; Lucy's scent was truly one of a kind.
She'd always been familiar and warm, and after learning I had been cared for by her ancestor, the world never made more sense. Lucy was family, my family.
Her scent made my heart flutter and mouth water, neither me or E.N.D could hardly resist it. It settled in the air like syrup, thick and honeyed, saccharine and delectable. The demon closed his eyes; vanilla, berries, comfort, and a rich, buttery, cream.
We breathed in, tasting her, wanting her. The rush of blood between our legs, invigorating.
I could hardly resist the way he made me feel, E.N.D's influence ravaging my physical form.
"Please...just please don't hurt her..."
~000~
I ran without really knowing where to go, knowing there was nowhere I could go.
I would have to face him at some point; he was probably right behind me. There was no way to hide my scent, a curse faint on my lips as an escape to the celestial plane was neither an option.
I'd have to think of a plan of attack for when he caught up to me, which couldn't be long from now. Fighting him seemed like the worst option...though that kind of confrontation might be the last thing on his mind.
My first kiss...my first kiss with Natsu. The subtle, tempting thoughts at the back of my mind, his curse attempting to coerce me still.
My lungs were beginning to weaken from the exertion of me running, feet pounding against the forest floor. But the butterflies in my stomach and the growing redness on my face were oddities all on their own.
I heaved, finally stopping to catch my breath, sucking in a gulp of hot air. Placing my hands on my knees, I bent slightly to expand my chest cavity, hoping to catch my breath quicker. I couldn't rest for long.
Picking my foot back up to start a steady pace, I groaned at my consuming lack of energy. All of our food was back at camp, a subtle gnawing of hunger surfacing in my stomach. My muscles wouldn't be able to take much more of this.
Rounding back to our campsite eventually sat in my wheel of options, but for now I continued forward.
The longer time went on without an interruption from Natsu began to eat at me. I stopped at least three more times to catch my breath, my pace only growing slower when I restarted.
A chilling thought entered my mind as I ducked underneath a tree branch; was he waiting me out? I couldn't run forever and I had nowhere to go, E.N.D wasn't dumb. He was foretold to be the only thing that could match Zeref, and being made by the black wizard himself, he likely had barely a flaw.
So no doubt he would have found me by now. I slowed as I came around a bend, a guttural sense of dread stifling me.
There sat my travel pack in the middle of the road, mysteriously out of place.
I swallowed the dryness of my throat, wiping away the sweat from my brow.
Fuck.
I knew he wouldn't be far behind me, but what kind of game was he trying to play? I clicked my tongue, my aching need for water evident. My muscles hurt and I needed to rest more than anything, but dropping my guard wasn't an option.
As much as the alarm bells were going off in my head, running now seemed entirely too futile. I'd accept the demon's taunting gift, pulling out a small towel to dab the damp edges of my hair. I was too exhausted to protest.
I dug through to find the bottle of water I kept, a refilling lacrima in the cap taking away the concern of finding more. There was also more than enough food, thanks to Natsu's big stomach. I had the foresight to bring extra rations in case he whined for a snack.
I found myself leaning uncomfortably against a tree as I ate, closing my eyes and taking a deep breath as I concentrated on the sounds around me. This was a technique Natsu taught me when we last hunted together, a way to enhance my senses in hopes of locating the prey.
I recognized the distant rumbling of large monsters stomping in the greater distance. The subtle vibrations were audible if you took the time to notice them; Natsu's ears naturally hyper focused. The wind and rustling leaves surrounded me for the most part, but there was a slight ache of a tree branch above me that caught my attention.
I was being watched.
There was no use in trying to go anywhere now, though it had been this way from the start.
Why wasn't he cornering me yet? Was he waiting for me to finish resting? To give me the opportunity to escape, knowing he could catch me whenever he felt like it?
An irk grew on my forehead; I didn't like being played with.
"Natsu," I called out, lifting myself to my feet, stepping away from the berth of the tree. I donned my Cancer star dress, gripping the hilts of my scissor blades with sweaty palms. "You can come out now."
My breath felt stuck in my throat, weighed and heavy as I steeled myself for his appearance. There was little hope for me to defend myself for long, but I wouldn't let us both fall victim to his curse if I could help it.
"I was gonna let you sleep, Luce." His voice was deep and chilling, Natsu swinging out from his hiding place, hanging upside down from the branch he was perched upon. "You've been running practically all day. I figured you'd be tired."
My eyes drew to the distant setting sun, quick to fall back upon his subtle smile.
"I don't think that'd be very smart of me," My brows furrowed together as he let out a light laugh, heaving upwards to drop himself to the ground.
"There's no fun in it if you're asleep," He shrugged, his smile spreading as I raised my shears defensively.
"So what now?" I begrudgingly asked, wary as he began to take small steps toward me.
"I don't want to fight you," E.N.D sighed playfully, his smile never faltering. "But I know you, Lucy; you won't go down without one."
"I won't fight you if I don't have to," I grit past my teeth, repositioning my feet as he stalked closer. "But I know what you want, and I won't let your curse consume me."
"It survived in you for a reason, just like Natsu's," He said, tapping a finger against his temple. "The body can't get rid of something that's already a part of your mind. Every king needs his queen, and I know you want to be mine."
"I don't have to touch you, you know," My chest panged with a wave of dark energy, a gasp escaping my lips as I wavered. The slight burn of his curse nestled in its place beneath my heart, the pressure of its weight nearly dragging me to my knees. It was enough, just being in his presence for him to continue his corruption. "Doesn't it feel good, Luce? My power in your body?"
I felt my stomach stir as he licked his lips, continuing his walk towards me. My teeth sunk into my bottom lip as I strained myself in an attempt to subside the whispers of his dark magic.
"Natsu wouldn't," I hissed through my teeth, trying to stay on my feet as he was mere inches away. "Natsu wouldn't want this…"
"Then it's a good thing I'm the one in charge," I gathered my strength to swipe my right blade out, Cancer's power allowing me to move at a speed he hopefully couldn't keep up with.
Jarring Natsu's focus, I felt the curse within me settle for a moment. I knew I couldn't beat him, but if this was what it took to put some more distance between us, I'd give it my all.
It hurt my confidence to see him continue to smile, effectively dodging the onslaught of slashes I barraged him with. He wasn't even trying, almost starting to laugh the further I pushed him away.
"Is this a game to you?" I asked in a huff, donning my Leo star dress to strike him with a left ax kick that threw him off balance.
"Game? Maybe," E.N.D laughed as he pivoted away from my next kick, his heel dragging against the dirt floor. "You're trying your best to get away from me, shouldn't I let you have a chance?"
His words made me stiffen, the mirth of his expression tying my stomach into odd knots.
Regaining his focus, I yelped at the intensity of his curse as it drew me to the floor, my body shaking underneath the pressure of his gaze. He knelt before me, softly lifting my chin to meet his gold irises.
"But you're mine, Luce. So don't fight me off too much; I know how much you want me too."
I felt his curse burn along the left side of my body as it did when I rewrote his book in the past.
"I know you don't have the strength to stay away from me for much longer." The words rolled off his tongue as he closed the distance between us, stealing my breath with an ardent kiss.
