passionately cruel -- oo.
Fear etched itself deep within your bones, tingling across your skin and encasing your body and mind with its invisible hold. It hurt to breathe - every intake of air scraping the walls of your lungs painfully.
You could hear it - the soft breathing, calm and collected; quite the contrast compared to your shallow panting. It put you on edge, sending your mind to wander into dark places - tricking your mental self into a solid state of paranoia.
Every sound, every smell, every flicker of movement - your senses caught, your body shuddered, and your breathing hitched.
The feeling though - sent your thoughts wheeling throughout your unstable head. The sensation sliding across your skin, appraising and observing; eyes full of dark intentions.
“W-what…” Your voice cracked, emotions sailing high as the words hesitated in your throat. “What do you want from me?”

The silence between you two was interrupted by laughter. A deep, gentle chuckle that sent chills down your spine, your heart beat skipping at the sound.
Familiarity ran through your thoughts, but you couldn't pinpoint it.
“Sunyeon-ah,” The figure breathed, your knees shaking at the simple call of your name. ”Are you a fast runner?”
You whimpered at the question, stumbling back a step as the being flashed a smile - the shadows revealing a row of white, vicious teeth.
It pounced -- and you screamed.
