Love's Perfect Match

The rain was heavy, forming numerous puddles on the ground. Arthur crouched and held Callum's chin. Trickles of rain trailed down Callum's cheek, drenching his shirt. "Look at you, Callum. You look so pitiful that even I start to feel sorry for you." Though, his words and actions didn't match at all as he tightened his grip.

"What do you want? Just spit it out." Callum broke free of his grasp and stared at Arthur without fear.

"Still stubborn as ever. I might just kill you, you know." Arthur whipped a knife out and smacked it against Callum's cheeks. His movement was slow and elegant. It was as if he was holding a handkerchief rather than wielding a dangerous weapon.

"I don't care." Callum was looking at him, but not really. Most of his attention was on Elspeth.

The woman was in the car, draped in Arthur's coat. There was love and pain in her eyes.

"I expected nothing less. Well, if that's what you want, then you shall die." Arthur pressed the knife against Callum's throat.

"Hold it. You promised you'd let him live."

Arthur stopped pressing his knife deeper. He turned around, his eyes filled with annoyance. "I did promise you, but if you plead for him, I might just snap."

The woman shook her head and pursed her lips. "You won't. You hold up your promises. You won't go back on your words. You don't want to disappoint me, do you?"
