Fallen Grace

25

Damian opened the door to the loft and gestured for Grace to enter. It was spacious. It had wooden floorboards and most of the furniture was brown with a mixture of grey.

"What is this place?",Grace asked as she entered the loft and looked around.

"I live here",Damian looked at her.

Grace walked around the place. It was quite a nice living area. There were many bookshelves and books everywhere, too many to count. The more Grace looked around the more she understood that it was possible that Damian in fact lived there.

"Are you listening?", Damian asked as he gestured for Grace to sit on the couch.

"Yes."

"My father, my father is the devil. My mother is Lilith,mother of all demons. Hence the whol demon-angel thing I've got going on. I have the power to come and go from The Inbetween. That is why my father makes me collect souls for him from there. When I saw you I wanted you,I wanted your soul because I saw that your soul was pure. At first it was to prove something to my father but when I got to know you I found that you were different,Grace. You weren't troubled,you were hurt. I had this deep urge to fix you",Damian said.

"So I was some project for your amusement?",Grace said with anger in her voice.

"No, it wasn't like that. I swear. I didn't know what I was doing, I just wanted to know you and then..."

"Then what?"

"Then I fell in love with you",Damian said sharply.

"Damian",Grace said as her eyes widened. It was almost as if she didn't believe Damian's words.

"Grace,You have bewitched me, mind and soul", Damian ran his finger across her cheek."Mr Darcy, Pride and Prejudice but I'm paraphrasing",he said as he looked directly into Grace's crystal blue eyes.

Grace closed her eyes. She felt like she was dreaming. She opened her eyes expecting Damian to be gone. Expecting him to disappear like her usually did but his grey eyes were looking deep into her soul.

"I want to be with you, I want to walk go to Metallica concerts in Rome with you and get Tattoos in Las Vegas with you",Damian spoke in a low voice.

"How? How can we be together?",Grace questioned wanting to know the answer to her question more than anything.

"Well technically you're not dead and I, I can come and go as I please on the Earthly plain. In fact I have been here for a while. My father doesn't even know about you so we don't have a problem",Damian explained as Grace tried to process the words that came out of his mouth. "We can live our own life, together. Do whatever the fuck we want to do and then when you die I can make our own little world for us where it will be just the two of us."

"What?",Grace looked at him confused. Her thoughts were crashing into each other. Everything was happening so fast that she couldn't take it all in at once.

"I can do that, I read about it. I've never tried it but I don't care, I will try anything if it means I can be with you",Damian said as he moved closer to her on the couch,he placed his hand on her cheek. "If it means I can kiss you and remind you how fucking amazing you are and that I fucking love you",he said as he wiped away a tear on her face with his thumb.

Grace saw the intensity in Damian's eyes. She loved him, she didn't care how or what or about any of the details. She just loved him. Grace moved forward and closed the gap between them. Damian parted her lips with his. The taste of him consumed her. Damian wrapped his arms around her as she slid onto his lap and she placed her hands at the back of his neck. She straddled him as they both suffocated in the kiss. He locked her lips between his teeth as Grace ran her hands up Damian's shirt ane felt the warmth of his body.

"I fucking love this",he said as he ran his hand through her new dark,ebony hair.

She brought her lips to his neck. His body hypnotized her. Damian suddenly grabbed the underneath of her thighs and hoisted her up. Grace wrapped her legs around his waist as she continued kissing Damian's neck. Damian walked over to his bed and placed her down. His eyes met hers and she could she the desperation he felt. He hovered over her and then began to kiss her once again. He moved his lips to her neck and kissed her softly, right below her ear. Damian's hand was firmly gripping her outer thigh as he continued to plant kisses all over her neck, getting lower with each motion.He moved his hand to her waist and she helped him take off his shirt. His hand grazed the skin under her shirt. He lifted his body up as he removed her shirt and not even a second later he was kissing her just above her waist line. Grace felt the magnetic pull of his body. She craved Damian. More than she could put into words. She wanted all of him. He was like novocaine and she was addicted. With every kiss and every caress she fell deeper into him.
Damian moved his lips to hers once again.

"Are you sure?", he asked as he looked directly into her eyes.

Grace nodded as she held his head and smiled. She had never wanted anything more before. She wanted Damian. She needed Damian. She had to have him.

"Are you sure?",she asked him reluctantly.

A smirk appeared on his face. His eyes were dark and alluring.

"There are magnets in my bones for the iron in her blood",he whispered as he kissed her and then stopped. "Atticus",he added and then kissed her again.

"I love you", Grace whispered with a breathy voice.

"I love you,Amazing Grace."
