"You're like me." He said, looking down at her in surprise and wonder. Aura took a step back, hearing the crunch of snow beneath her boots. The man in front of her walked forward after every step she took back.

"No I'm not." Aura said eyeing the man with cautious eyes.

"You're like me. Your scent, your eyes, the blood that pumps through your veins! You're like me, I can feel it!" He growled repeating the words once again.

You're like me.

"What do you mean?" Aura questioned and took a couple more steps back until she felt something solid collide with her back. Aura felt at the object behind her—it was a tree. By the time Aura realized this, the man was centimeters away from her face. Growling under his breath and smelling at her neck.

Like an animal.

"You're like me," He repeated and touched at her skin lightly, trailing his fingers along her cheek. Caressing her like a doll. "I've never met someone like me."

"I'm nothing like you." Aura whispered and took in shaky breaths as she stared into his golden eyes. Eyes much like hers.

"You're wrong. You're a beast...like me."
