Description
"Within my realm, you may experience the height of bliss.", The entrancing voice intoned.

He turned from the mantle to face her now, glowing eyes blazing in the near darkness. His fingers absentmindedly coiled into the folds of his cape with a growing tension. Now, as ever, he seemed every inch a feral beast trapped within the confines of his impeccable, perfectly civilized eveningwear.

She made as if to speak, but was immediately silenced by his deliberate advance toward her. Fear shown transparently through her widened blue eyes as her spine stiffened. For all of his obvious allure, she was still utterly terrified of the masked man.
Her eyes remained locked upon his as he swept past her, the aura of thinly leashed rage within him seemed to permeate the already charged, womblike subterranean chamber. She let loose a small sigh of relief after he had passed. So close, and yet a seemingly impassable gulf between them.
Suddenly he whirled upon her, cape billowing menacingly behind him as he bent toward her ear, the eyes below the mask glittering maliciously.
"But be warned, my glorious Angel, that with the slightest of disobedience, a thousand horrors shall replace every inlking of the former beauty!" He growled viciously into her ear, fingers gesturing as if to grab her shoulder. They never did, only stood flexing in the air, his elegant digits near spiderlike.

"I shall not be disregarded again. Neither as man or Angel."

With that, he was gone. An apparition once more.
