I couldn't understand at that time, what she meant.
Who could have understood, "Bedevilment is the density of love," as it flowed from beauty's own lips? She sat in shadows, her voice a whisper, barely heard. The room, dimly lit by a single candle, flickered with the weight of her words. Her eyes, deep pools of midnight, held secrets I dared not seek. Each glance, a story untold, each breath, a mystery unsolved. She spoke of love, not as light, but as a shroud, thick and consuming. The night grew darker, the air colder, her presence more intense. The candle sputtered, and with its final flicker, her face twisted, revealing the truth. Her beauty, a mask, and her love, a curse.
