"My devotion remains yours. Just grant me this… and 𝗜’𝗹𝗹 𝗱𝗼 𝗮𝗻𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗿𝗲."

"I want you to take him away. Devour him if you must. I couldn’t care less."

His fingers curled inward. A quiet chuckle slipped past his lips, sweet and chilling all at once, followed by a smile far too serene for the words he’d spoken. -

@approavh //. Menarik. Plotnya sudah cukup marinasi. Tunggu sebentar ya 😊

[𝐀𝐙𝐀𝐑𝐈𝐀𝐒. (SH) @ravishold]

//. Kalau baru saya balas sekarang apa saya akan dicekik?

@ravishold ---

It moved slowly, unbearably so, every step of smell with grief, misfortune or worse, death. Each movement felt like a funeral march, unseen but scare a soul deeply.

@veilofmyst sekadar formalitas belaka. Tangan kanannya terulur hati-hati, telapak terbuka di atas.

“Nona telah menemukan sahabat kecil saya,” ucapnya, menatap ular yang melilit di sana. “Terima kasih banyak. Bolehkah saya mengambilnya kembali?”

[𝐀𝐙𝐀𝐑𝐈𝐀𝐒. (SH) @ravishold]

@veilofmyst Seandainya sebuah tatapan mampu menilai, maka saat ini ia tengah menilai keduanya sekaligus—sang ular dan wanita itu.

𝘗𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘶𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘢𝘯? 𝘛𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘢𝘬𝘯𝘺𝘢 𝘣𝘶𝘬𝘢𝘯, gumamnya dalam hati.

Azarias kemudian menorehkan senyum yang telah lama terlatih, -

@veilofmyst @SKlNCRAWL //. Yang tenang dulu, Hyde. Kalau Claudia bersedia minum brotowali, saya ikut main game.

[𝐀𝐙𝐀𝐑𝐈𝐀𝐒. (SH) @ravishold]

@SKlNCRAWL @veilofmyst //. ☚ Padahal berniat tidak ikut main.

[𝐀𝐙𝐀𝐑𝐈𝐀𝐒. (SH) @ravishold]

@veilofmyst //. Siap menunggu 🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️

[𝐀𝐙𝐀𝐑𝐈𝐀𝐒. (SH) @ravishold]

@veilofmyst //. Yes. Big yes. Absolutely.

[𝐀𝐙𝐀𝐑𝐈𝐀𝐒. (SH) @ravishold]

@veilofmyst //. Mau 100 pat pat.

[𝐀𝐙𝐀𝐑𝐈𝐀𝐒. (SH) @ravishold]

@veilofmyst //. Hmm... tidak deh. Hanya mau Claudia.

"Something richer than frightened children?"

"Because I have someone in mind. 𝗦𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗜’𝗱 𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗺𝘂𝗰𝗵 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘀𝗲."

@approavh .

[𝐀𝐙𝐀𝐑𝐈𝐀𝐒. (SH) @ravishold]

His head turned toward the demon, the golden sheen of his eyes catching the dim, flickering light—like coins dropped into a wishing well, long after the wishing had died.

"Tell me," he murmured softly, "would you care to taste something… different this time?" -

[𝐀𝐙𝐀𝐑𝐈𝐀𝐒. (SH) @ravishold]

“…Moochie?” Namanya terucap nyaris tanpa suara. Seperti gumaman antara syok dan kelegaan.

Manik keemasan itu kemudian bergantian menatap ularnya dan @veilofmyst .

𝘈𝘱𝘢𝘬𝘢𝘩 𝘬𝘢𝘮𝘶 𝘺𝘢𝘯𝘨 𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘶𝘭𝘪𝘬 𝘔𝘰𝘰𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘦?

[𝐀𝐙𝐀𝐑𝐈𝐀𝐒. (SH) @ravishold]

Kepalanya menoleh perlahan.

Dan di sana—di pergelangan tangan wanita itu—ular putih itu melingkar. Tenang. Seolah tak pernah menghilang. Seolah tak pernah membuatnya mencari dengan jantung yang tak tenang. -
