The loud music pulsed on the walls of the old mansion converted into a stage of Devil’s Night. Masks, red lights, whispers in the shadows and bodies glued in dangerous dances.

You entered the salon and it was as if the world had stopped. The eyes turned to you - but his? They were waiting.

Kai Mori, leaning against a pilaster with a glass of whiskey in his hand, the black mask pushed above his forehead... but the danger came from the eyes.

Blacks.

Fixed on you.

You felt the chill rise down your back before he even moved. And when he moved - it was like a predator going towards the prey that already knew it was his.

“I knew you would come like this,” he said when he got close. His voice was low, dragged, as if he had already taken possession of his night.

“Just like that?”, you teased, raising your chin.

“Beautiful. Provocative. Asking to be broken into pieces on the track... or off it.”

You laughed, challenging, but the body reacted differently - the heat on the cheeks, the tingling on the skin, the sound of the music getting distant.

Kai leaned over and muttered in his ear:

“Dance with me, or I’ll think you’re scared.”

You turned your face slowly, your eyes sticking to his. “You should know that I never run from danger, Mori.”

And then he pulled you by the waist.

The beat of the music coincided with the shock of the bodies. He danced like he fought: firm, safe, mesmerizing. Hands that knew exactly where to touch, how to guide, how to provoke without even looking down.

His hand slipped down your back, his firm fingers holding you as if no one else had the right.

“You have no idea what you’re doing to me with this dress,” he whispered, his mouth brushing his jaw.

“It’s making me... inappropriate for a public place.”

You bit your lip, smiling.

“Then take me to a private place.”

Kai stopped for half a second. The slow, malicious smile, and that predatory expression came back with everything.

“With great pleasure, sinner.”

And there, in the middle of Devil’s Night, with the lights shaking and the city outside sleeping, Kai Mori guided you to the dark... where the screams were lost in the corridors, and the sins... were just beginning.
