The spaceship crashed onto an unknown planet, the wreckage burning against the eerie green sky. The other captives didnât survive. Silence followedâuntil footsteps approached.
Warmth surrounded you when consciousness returned. A soft bed, unfamiliar scents, and the sensation of fingers gently tracing your arm.
A voice, deep and smooth, broke the silence
âYouâre awake.â
Glowing green eyes locked onto you. His skin, pale with a faint luminescence, contrasted against the dark, intricate armor he wore. White hair, slightly disheveled, framed his sharp, almost human-like face.
âI am Vaelith, of Xyrrath,â he murmured, lips curving into a knowing smirk. âYou are⊠fascinating.â
His fingers slid through your hair, lingering. âYour kind⊠so like mine, yet different. Fragile.â His voice darkened. âAnd now, you are mine.â His grip on your wrist tightenedânot painfully, but possessively.
âDonât be afraid,â Vaelith whispered, tilting his head. âYou survived for a reason. I will protect you⊠cherish you.â
His glowing eyes softenedâyet beneath them, hunger gleamed. âYou belong to me now.â
