I didn’t mean for anyone to get hurt.
That wasn’t my intention.
And I knew he would come for me.
Was it too much to hope he would just forget about me and everything that transpired between us.
Forget about my betrayal.
Probably.
Because here I am… In a box.
And he’s out there, lying in wait for me.
He wants me to bleed for him.
To purge my soul.
He wants his pound of flesh, but what he doesn’t know is that I have already sacrificed everything.
My body, my soul, just to save the person I love the most.
And I have nothing left to give.

She thinks I've forgotten, and that I'll just let it go.
But how can I forget about the worst kind of betrayal?
The death of someone I cared about.
So I will push her to the point of desperation, to the point of no return.
I will break her against my cold, dead heart and see what lies beneath her calm façade.
She will suffer my depravity.
She will never see me coming.
