Fire and ice

As Damien's wicked smile twisted his features, the woman's gasp of terror filled the air, her eyes widening in sheer horror at the malevolent aura emanating from him. It was as if the very essence of darkness had taken form before her, a chilling reminder of the power that now loomed over her.

But before she could even utter a word of protest, a faint freezing sound echoed through the air, sending a shiver down her spine.

And then, in an instant, agony engulfed her as a long spine of ice erupted from her chest with a sickening crunch, tearing through her black clothes as if they were mere paper.

The woman's screams were muffled by the icy grip that now encased her, her body convulsing with the unbearable pain of the ice spikes that began to break through her skin from within.
