Watching him with interest, Alastair's golden eyes brushed over his lips occasionally; he was patient this time as Ellis inched closer to his face, his breath touching Alastair's lips, and quickly gave him a faltering peck on the cheek. Done with his task, he hurriedly scrambled to get back on his feet and away from Alastair, who sat unmoving in a daze, his eyes staring at Ellis were clear and unblinking.
Taking his chance, Ellis peeled open Alastair's fist, snatched the earring, and backed away from him. Alastair not once tried to stop him. Ellis, still suspicious of his sudden change in his behavior, didn't want to find out why he was suddenly being so submissive, lest he got attached to this devil again.
"Seeing you leave me is making me mad…"
"Stay mad then."
