I find myself standing in the middle of his room. How many martinis did I have?
Silence bears down upon me with weight I’ve only felt once before.
He stares with those dark ravenous eyes. I feel like a child beneath his gaze.
“I want you,” he whispers, sounding both sinister and sexual. Truth is…I want him too, but Ben…
“I don’t know your name.” Stupid, you’re stalling.
He presses me to him, kisses me. Dark. Poisonous. Sweet.
“If I tell you, you’re mine.”
I can’t answer, hypnotized.
“Captain Saint Lucifer.”
I must choose. Love or lust?

My favorite actor in the world was in a play as a character named Captain Saint Lucifer. He didnt have any lines but he was supposed 2 b a very dark romantic character. The play really didnt make much sense but I liked the name

I'm intrigued by this name "Captain Saint Lucifer". It's got a catchy sound, but what exactly does it mean? Very interesting read, really boarderlines a sense of reality and frightening fantasy. I like it.
