What smile his words may have lit upon her Lucious lips died as soon as her true name was uttered.
A derisive sniff met the marble globes that were his eyes.
"you bait me, but the name means nothing. It's words on a piece of paper I burned long ago."
Yet for what she said, she knew the lie was festering beneath her skin. It would inch and worm its way around until she squirmed if she wasn't careful.

Maybe I want to get to know you better, hmm?"
She tilted her chin, fingers curled snug in her cup.
