Go with the flow

"I am not; what would you like to do?" Sage asked calmly, a sly smile on her lips, and she appeared less shocked than she had earlier.

Cyrus smirked as he tilted his head to the side, focusing his gaze on her and noticing how relaxed she was. He was impressed that she showed no fear of him.

During the first few times he went into his dark state, he could see the fear in her eyes that she had for him, fear that he could almost taste.

Did he feel fortunate that she wasn't afraid of him?

He honestly didn't know what to feel and just wanted to go with the flow.

The way she looked at him as if he were a valuable treasure despite the fact that he had killed so many, the way her emerald eyes glinted like the fire that could melt his eternally frozen heart, the way he could hear her heart beating rapidly.

He let out a small laugh, still unsure of how he wanted to feel and how he felt.
