I'm a monster

Nicholas stared at the woman sitting on his bed, and seeing she wasn't going anywhere, the intensity of the blue flames swirling in his eyes began to diminish; his eyes were becoming their usual hazel color again.

"It's changing," Luciana whispered, but because his senses were heightened during such times, he heard it. 

"What is?" He asked.

"Your eyes, it is becoming normal again," she said, and he began to approach her on the bed. Luciana saw his bare upper body, a perfectly toned chest and abs, and gulped. 

"Do you want to touch it?" he asked, catching the glimmer of curiosity in her eyes as they flitted from his chest to his hands. The words slipped out of his mouth before he could stop himself. 

"May I?" she replied, a hint of excitement in her voice. 

Nicholas hesitated for a moment and brought his left arm in front of her.
