Feel a Sin Comin’ On
Pistol Annies
I feel a sin comin' on
I feel a right that's about to go wrong
I got a shiver down to the bone
I feel a sin comin' on
I gotta buzz in my brain
Drunk on a love goin' down like champagne
I got a feelin' it's gonna leave a lipstick stain
And I'd be the only one to blame
And you can see it
All over my face
Sweet temptation
All over the place
Give me tall dark and handsome,
Mix it up with something strong
I feel a sin (I feel a sin) comin' on
Please, Jesus, don't hold me back
I know it ain't mine but I want it so bad
The smoke in the whiskey
Got me feeling easy
And after I'll fade in the glass
And you can see it
All over my face
Sweet temptation
All over the place
Give me tall dark and handsome,
Mix it up with something strong
I feel a sin (I feel a sin) comin' on
And you can see it (and you can see it)
All over my face (all over my face)
Sweet temptation
All over the place
Give me tall dark and handsome,
Mix it up with something strong
I feel a sin (I feel a sin) comin' on
I feel a sin (I feel a sin) comin' on
Night had fallen fast upon the land, no more than an hour ago the sky was painted with hues of red, orange, and pink but all color had faded leaving only a matt black canvas with no stars to be looked upon. The darkness was thick and the wind was crisp. This was the perfect description of his life since his woman was gone away, no the accurate term was when he left. He left on purpose, for an important thing but now he had to win her back even though he knows it will make things go complicated.
Knight took a step and look down at his window, his soldiers are everywhere and it comes more and more, thanks to the fools who dealt with him.
"How did it go, my Master?" Antarteces asked out of nowhere and Knight is still amused of her aura, her aura is unique that you can't even feel her presence, even him.
"It didn't go as what I had planned but I still got a piece of information that may help me more. Information that is so very intriguing indeed," he answered and a playful smile crossed in his lips.
"You're stepping in the dark Master and I hope you're seeing it," Antarteces said with apprehension in tone.
"People say the darkness presses in, it doesn't. The darkness kisses up to your skin closer than a mother and whispers excitement into your ears. The darkness is your best friend, it's funny and glib, flattering and cool. the darkness will be your favorite thing right up until your exits are blocked, then it has no reason to hide. if it was easy to spot darkness there wouldn't be a problem, how often are you confused with the day and night? but I can tell you now if you don't understand your own emotions and motivations I can't help you, I know this is your first time to hear me in this way Antarteces but bear with it you don't know so much about me as you think. You are a character, this is your story, now what do you want? What do you fear? know that and you can unlock your cage and step into the light. But in my case, I guess I will be forever lockdown here in my darkness as long as I don't have her, my woman. My sadness is a hollowness. I can't tell you what's worse. Sometimes my hollowness is a shell, holding in a thousand oceans of tears Antarteces. Sometimes though, it holds a thousand pieces of glass that are wedged in between my soul and body. That's the pain. Sometime though, like when I had my first kiss, kissing her I tasted something like sweet, an unforgettable softness and sweetness. I know I sounded strange and you are not believing you are hearing this now but this is the last you will hear that," he stated and stare at the blank dark sky.
His reflection he might say.
"Is there anything I could do for you, my Master?"
"Yes, send her to me," he coldly stated and his eyes were dark and no emotions and turn his heels away leaving Antarteces with sadness in the eyes.

"Tell me about the King," Ysabella asked Xevy as they were strolling outside the palace, Xevy was honored to tour her around the palace. It's been a while since then.
"Why do you want to know about him so sudden?" he asked creasing his eyebrow.
"I just met him and he sounds not like a King that is why I am asking you what is he like, for me also to have a background since I'll be here for few months like I said earlier," she answered while looking at the ceiling they were on, it was so high she wonders how did they build such an enormous palace.
"Well above all else, the king was a man, I saw him in good times and bad, always weighed with the responsibility he accepted for others. He is willing to see his flaws and work to be a better human being, kinder, more emphatic. He was brave on the outside, leading with everything. Everyone else had to see him flawlessly, the polished version to inspire such confidence. He was afraid of not being enough, of falling in sacred duty, of his purpose unfulfilled, weighty as it was. He never needed a crown or fine things Ysabella, you know if you get to know more about the King since he is the one who permits you to be in here like you said, like the letter we just read you can describe him. Don't take my description if you didn't get to know him first," he said and a friendly smile crossed his lips making her return the gesture.
"But as I stay here I notice something was odd between the king and the prince," he whispered enough for her to hear it, even though there were just the only two people walking and talking, walls have ears too.
"What made you say that?" she whispered asking she doesn't even know why but it's better to be in the flow of Xevy even though they completely looked like a fool lurking their eyes from left to right.
"You'll see," he answered and as they were just stepping on the marble stone they jolted in fear as someone deep voice speaks.
"What are you doing?"
"Prince Hades."
