DARK AND DANGEROUS...

Are the only things that can define Dante Hall.

He is the monster in your nightmares, he is the death that follows you endlessly, he is the darkness swarming the shadows.

I thought my life was broken after my soul had been crushed so many times...

But that's when he came.

And he's worse than feeling broken...

HE'S ADDICTING.

And you know what's worse...? When a man as dangerous as this decides he's fed up with you and whisks you away, promising you safety... in terms of what...?

I promise you it's something you won't expect.

I could be standing on deaths door...

But I can't stop.

He's too dangerous.

AND I LOVE IT.

DANGER NEVER TASTED SO SWEET

******************

How to date a vampire?

I'll tell you!

You'll need to give him hugs, daily, and also... other things.

Oh, and blood. He needs blood.

How do I know?

My boyfriend's a vampire! Or at least I think.

He's very dark and brooding, but... I notice he loves sweet things. Why doesn't everyone else know that?

His blood is his coffee, he loves dumping sugar in it.

It's odd, but I don't judge! I can just get him chocolate.

So how to date a vampire?

Good question, I'm still learning.

Do you know Suki Quinn? No, she doesn't even know herself.

She has a bright heart with a dark soul... her blood thickened and savory, just every vampire's dream.

Every vampire had been hunting for the perfect meal, the bitter blood mixed with sweetness... and Suki was the definition of perfect blood.

That's when William came into the situation.

William Blaze, the boss at the publishing company Suki worked at.

He wouldn't be her boss for long, no.

He wouldn't allow anyone to get their slimy fingers on his dinner.

His dinner?

Yes, his dinner.

Blood and lust made his favorite meal.

**********originally "Once Bitten, I'm Smitten"**************

"Sebastian~!" I cried, arching my back as he dove deeper

"You're cries are beautiful, my lord. Scream louder." He shoved forward. "You must."

I then screamed—as he begged—eyes squeezing shut tighter. "Sebastian! Sebastian!"

"Yes, master?" he said, smirking.

I breathed shakily, gazed up at him as my chest raised up and down uneasily. "Harder."

His eyes glowed dangerously. "Is that an order?"

I nodded.

His smile widened a little. "Are you mine?"

I nodded again.

"Say it aloud," he whispered, leaning down to dust his lips with mine.

I breathed uneasily, gazing up at him as he pulled away. "I am yours. Every part of me, my soul, my body, my desires, my everything."

"Yes," he said gently, "and I am yours. I am your butler, and you are my master."

He then shoved harder, making me scream as my nails dug into his shoulders. "As you wish, master." He smiled. "Although, I must warn, be careful what you wish for."

He tackled me then, making me laugh when his body collided with mine.

**************

Yumi had finally accepted her love for Sebastian, but there were other tasks at hand. Murdering The Father, Edward, and that lovely Overtaker.

Three people under the heel of Sebastian's wingtip shoes.

They attempted to steal his master, they harmed his master, therefore... they shall not live.

After accepting the help with the loathing Grell, Yumi's servants, and Sebastian himself... they decide this must be the end.

Of the beings endangering his master.

Because she was his, and she forever will be his.

His master, forever.

THEY CALL HIM RECKLESS

That was an understatement.

Sebastian was the most attractive, dangerous, horrifying man in the entire state of Washington.

He had secrets, secrets in that dark past of him, and I always struggled to understand his motive.

By daytime, he was sitting in class, silent, and taking notes all while doing good on his tests, and by the end of class, his dark eyes were on me, with that look I couldn't comprehend.

He is not who I imagine.

I feel like I know him, and then I don't. I find his motive, and then I find I'm wrong.

But I can't focus on him right now... there's someone out there, watching me. I need to keep my guard up, but at the same time...

I have a feeling Sebastian is centered around it.

I ask him, but he just teases me, he just dodges the question.

Sebastian... can you ever stand in the light? Or is the darkness the safest place for you?

I can see in those eyes... you have plans for me.

I just have to find out what.

******this is my own original work, please do not plagerize******

"Master, may I continue?"

I gazed up at him then, breaths shaking. "Do you mean... you... inside...?"

He nodded, eyes glowing dangerously.

I swallowed something hard but nodded.

WHY DID I NOD?

Was I going insane?

I should've said no! I should've slapped him across the face!

Sebastian just pulled away out of my sight and undid something on his pants.

Only two seconds later he was on top of me, and I stared up at him in question as he leaned down and pressed his lips to mine.

He pulled back a little. "Hold still."

***********

While Yumi remains silently asleep, waiting for her prince charming to wake her, Sebastian and Scarlet must go on a quest together to recapture their master's soul.

What Yumi doesn't know... is that she was with them the whole time.

Hidden with their bodies.

After his master was taken, Sebastian does not want to risk his belongings being stolen again.

NEVER AGAIN.

What Yumi doesn't know... is what lay on the other side. How would he react when she woke?

Pure sinning, that's how.

************

"Master... do you love me?"

A tumble of shock rushed through me then, and I stared at him, baffled at the question.

He waited patiently for an answer, eyes darkening.

But I pushed away my pride, my snottiness, and my self-righteousness. Because this was the end, this was my last moment, and I could be honest with him.

"Yes."

"Don't underestimate me. I might look cute, but I bite," I told no one in particular.

"I love it when you bite," Sebastian said, smiling. "It makes the night more interesting."

"Shut up. I wasn't talking to you."

"Pity..." he gazed up, red eyes glowing dangerously, "because I don't look cute, I just bite. Especially how long I've been craving." He then caught my arm, making me shoot him a look. "Now come, master." His smile was all fox. "It's been a while since we've been alone together."

**************

Yumi Phantomhive never imagined falling for a man planning her demise, but here she was... lashes lowering as his face remained inches from hers, his breath teasing her lips.

It had been almost two years since she signed that contract with Sebastian Michaelis, her demon butler, but now he finally got fed up with her reluctance.

He was done with waiting for her to cave.

As they investigate a string of murders, Yumi is forced to attend a ball of Wonderland. Dressed as the white rabbit as the Mad Hatter remained at her side, watching and waiting.

Waiting for his master's command to kill everyone and whisk her away for another night, another night of alone time.

But something dangerous happens, his master is taken from him, and Sebastian isn't planning to let her kidnappers down easily.

Death.

For all.

"I don't take well when people steal what's mine. Now give me my master back willingly, or I will break all your limbs one-by-one before finally giving you the release of death."

"You are mine."  **** Despite Yumi's reluctance, she had been giving into Sebastian's darkness every night since their first kiss, and she couldn't stop. As they investigate a string of missing teenagers, Yumi finds herself stuck in the blackness of her past, and the only way out is to crawl into Sebastian's arms. For he is the only one who understood what happened that night. The night he saved her. Although Yumi tries to remain unfazed, Sebastian knows that despite her reluctance, she was already his. Her mind, her soul, her body. It was only a matter of time before she cracked. She was his. Forever.

"Ahn!" I cried, arching my back. "Sebastian, not so hard!" He remained behind me, a low smile crossing his face. "You can handle everything, but you can't handle this, my lord?" "It's too big!" I told him, breathing shakily. "I can't!" He just chuckled. "Please, my lord... can't you endure it a little longer? I've already started, you know." "Ah!" I said, sweat sliding down my temples. "Ah!" "Just a little longer," he promised. "I'm almost done."  ***** Sebastian Michaelis is back for another round of soul collecting, but this time, he was in for more than pure hunger. He wanted a specific soul, one from his one true love that died so long ago... Ciel Phantomhive.  After failing to collect Ciel's soul when his master fell ill at age 77, Sebastian spent years searching, and he finally found it... Inside Yumi Phantomhive; King Charles's guard dog in year 2024. And he found her at her most desperate time, signing a contract with her just as he did with Ciel. Being a servant, in exchange for her soul. His soul now. Fate really had us in a twist, didn't it? But Sebastian wasn't just in it for food, no. He had another pure and deep hunger that devoured him whole. His soul, not to eat, but to make his entirely. Determined to finally take what was his... Sebastian knew he'd break through her wall at some point. He did so with Ciel, didn't he?

This is just a place where I keep some of the poetry I’ve written over the years. Some of it is about me, some of it is about my friends, family, and loved ones. Some of it is about people I’ve never met. Some of it is about stories I’ve heard over the course of my life. There are many themes throughout, but the tying theme is universal equality and true liberation.

A collection of the lyrics I wrote. Lyrics about everything that matters to me. About everything that I yearn for desperately.

Everyone’s got pain in their body

Afraid of it will turning in out black and grey

Afraid of you will loosing it

Rushing you to the punishment

Time against in lines

Track of mind will fall in out like rain

An umbrella of yours will help you out with the race

There’s no synonyms life for the people

Genuine of your journey can lift you up to the eternity

Dislikness of the people for yours

Can’t be erased from their mind without a scratch

Lies lay on your mind

Will speak up through your mouth to the reality

Definition of the world

On your shoulders

Memories of murder on your eyes

Blood on your plam, will run the wild

The Forest of your happiness will grow old

Sunshine will be beautiful

Sweeter after difficulty

Mark on your life
