Penultimate Chapters

In the stories

The villain holds out

Their hand

Slips into your life

Unawares

A mischievous smile

A mysterious past

They are around

Every corner

Until you can’t breathe

Without them

In the penultimate chapters

They charm you with 

Fantasies of power

Confess a love undying

Asks you to be their

Partner in crime

If you say no

The world will burn in

The flames of their heart-

Broken fury

If you say yes

You will have a hand

In the destruction

Fates forever entwined to

Burn together

And take the world with you

Into chaos
