--------------◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇-------------late at night -lit only by candlelight and stained glass shadows. The room was colder than you expected, even withthe flares dancing along the black candles It must have once been a chapel-stained glass still filtered moonlight through the dust, casting warped saints onto the floor. Now, the altar was defaced, black sigils painted over sacred texts.
You stood still, arms crossed, your body framed by sigil you didn't recognize but already despised.
Jonah leaned against the opposite wall lazy as always, but there was a flicker in his eyes-like he'd been waiting for this exact moment.
"You think you're above all this," he said voice echoing across the stone room. "That just because you work alone, you' re not part of the same darkness"
"I don't follow you," you replied coolly. "That doesn't mean I don't understand what you are"
He pushed off the wall, approaching slowly. "You speak like you know me"
" I knew men like you" you took a step closer, meeting his gaze without flinching. "Power-hungry. Hollow. Clinging to rituals to feel something real.
"And yet.." He stopped just a breath away, eyes flicking down your body. "Here you are, standing in my circle, speaking my name."
Your pulse quickened, but you didn't show it. You reached up, brushing a strand of hair behind your ear with calculated calm.
"I'm only here because Sarah was weak.'" The words landed sharp, but true. And for a second, Jonah's smirk faltered.
"You liked her," he said, voice lower now. "You pitied her because she chose what you won't admit you want."
You narrowed your eyes. "She gave in. I don't."
That's when it shifted. The air, the weight of the room. He stepped into your space before you could move, his hand grabbing your hair with pressure, to show you the control.
He tilted your head back, exposing your neck, your breath caught in your throat.
"You hide behind control," Jonah said, eyes scanningyour throat like he could see the pulse racing beneath your skin. "But I wonder if I really pushed, would you snap? Or would you beg?" You could feel his lips on your neck as he spoke.
Your hand shot up, grabbing his wrist tightly. You moved quickly- dropping your weight, twisting, using his own stance to knock him off-balance.
He hit the floor with a low grunt, and before he could recover, you straddled his hips, pinning him with your knees, sitting on him, putting all your weight on him, your hands pressed to his, to immobilize him or trying.
Your hair spilled around you, shadows flickering across your face as you stared down at him, breathing heavy.
"Try me again," you whispered. "And 'l carve your name into the walls of this chapel in blood."
Jonah laughed-actually laughed-his hands moving slowly to your thighs, thumbs stroking the insides, dangerously close.
"So this is how you pray?" he murmured. "Pinned on top of a devil?"
You didn't move.
You should have.
But your body was buzzing, heat rolling in low waves through your stomach. His hands roamed slowly, purposefully going to your hips, touching the skin under your shirt, Testing. Daring.
"You're in over your head," you breathed, fighting with the urge of moving your hips and feel him.
He smiled up at you, dangerous and knowing. "So pull me under."
For a moment, you didn't say anything. Just stared at him, your body still pressed to his, the air around you charged with something far from holy. his hands pressed your hips a little harder on him and you could feel him, so ready for you. You felt dizzy, and moaned so weak.
You’re back to the reality that you’re on top of a lunatic who drove your friend straight to death. You stood. Fast. Cold. Unshaken - at least on the outside.
You looked down at him with cold eyes and completely red and horny. "Next time you touch me like that, you better be ready to bleed for it."
Jonah stayed on the floor, smiling like a man already planning the next move "Oh, darling" he said softly, "Ihope you make me"
